Chapter 437: Soul Destruction, Excommunication from the Great Luo Sect
Chapter 437: Soul Destruction, Excommunication from the Great Luo Sect
The purple demonic aura dissipated quickly under the illumination of the yellow mist.
In just a few breaths, all traces of the purple aura vanished.
The mist that filled the sky gradually dissipated.
Soon, the only thing left floating in the air was a yellow flag emitting a radiant glow—none other than Chu Ning's Yellow Wind Flag!
At this moment, the cultivators of the Cloud Sky Alliance couldn't help but feel a mix of surprise and joy.
Chu Ning, on the other hand, wore a look of intrigue.
He found it hard to believe that he had just effortlessly slain the Extrinsic Demon.
"Fellow cultivators, beware! That Extrinsic Demon might not be truly dead!"
Just then, Qu Yichen spoke up, his voice filled with caution.
Hearing this, several cultivators paled in fear.
Chu Ning's expression turned serious, and in a flash, he disappeared, having used his Spatial Movement technique to appear ten meters away.
As Chu Ning moved away, a purplish-black shadow appeared where he had just been standing.
It was a giant-headed purplish-black snake—the very form the Extrinsic Demon had taken when it cast its spell earlier.
But at this moment, even though it was just a shadow, the purple snake seemed more real than ever to Chu Ning and the others.
On the giant head of the demon snake, where there should have been two smaller heads, now there was only one.
In place of the other head was a large, pitch-black hole, clearly damaged by external force.
"Be careful! That's a demon soul! It can possess and usurp bodies!" Qu Yichen warned loudly.
Hearing this, the group of cultivators turned pale with fear.
At the same time, Chu Ning's thoughts stirred, and the Five Elements Spirit Sword descended, slashing at the demon snake.
Simultaneously, the Yellow Wind Flag was swiftly retrieved by Chu Ning.
Seeing that its sneak attack on Chu Ning had failed, the purple demon snake darted away.
Facing the descending Five Elements Spirit Sword, the demon snake's body twisted and turned, attempting to transform into a shadow and disappear.
But at that moment, the Five Elements Spirit Sword split into five mid-air, enveloping the demon snake in a shower of multicolored mist.
Under the barrage of the five-colored mist, the demon snake, which had just turned into a shadow, materialized once more.
"Do you dare to destroy my demon soul?" The purple demon snake let out a startled roar.
Chu Ning coldly hummed in response. If he hadn't been extremely vigilant, he might have suffered the same fate as Ao Xuan, allowing the demon soul to get too close.
This demon was far more troublesome than any he had encountered before. Now that they were locked in a battle to the death, he wouldn't let it escape and leave future troubles.
With a quick incantation, Chu Ning shot out beams of Five Elements Sword Qi, striking the demon snake directly.
However, to his slight frown, the sword beams didn't seem to have much effect on the demon snake.
Without hesitation, Chu Ning unleashed the Yellow Wind Flag.
The flag transformed into a beam of yellow light, piercing through the Five Elements Sword Array.
Seeing the Yellow Wind Flag, the demon soul seemed to finally panic.
It charged towards the five-colored mist, attempting to break through the array.
But under Chu Ning's control, the demon collided directly with the spirit sword's hilt.
"Ooooh!"
The demon snake let out an unearthly howl.
Clearly, the spirit sword, refined from dark profound gold, had inflicted some damage.
At that moment, the Yellow Wind Flag, which had penetrated the Five Elements Sword Array, arrived.
It transformed into a yellow earth dragon, crashing down towards the demon soul!
"You, human..." The demon snake's words trailed off as the yellow earth dragon struck.
In the next instant, the serpentine demon soul was instantly annihilated!
The Extrinsic Demon, which had lingered in this world since ancient times, unknown for how long, was completely eradicated from existence.
Chu Ning stared at the empty Five Elements Sword Array, his guard still up.
With a flick of his thoughts, he recalled the Five Elements Spirit Sword and the Yellow Wind Flag.
Qu Yichen and Gu Yuxian, along with the others, immediately flew over to Chu Ning's side.
"Fellow Daoist Chu, you destroyed that Extrinsic Demon!" Qu Yichen exclaimed, his tone filled with astonishment.
"Your abilities are truly astonishing, Fellow Daoist. To be able to directly kill an Extrinsic Demon of such power..." The other Nascent Soul cultivators looked at Chu Ning with a mix of respect and a hint of wariness in their eyes.
In the cultivation world, strength was revered.
Although the cultivators had known that Chu Ning was powerful, they had not witnessed it firsthand until now.
Having just seen how Chu Ning effortlessly vanquished the Extrinsic Demon with his array of abilities, they now had a true understanding of his capabilities.
Especially the Qiu-surname cultivator whom Chu Ning had just saved, and Gu Yuxian, who had retrieved her signature treasure from him, their gazes toward Chu Ning were filled with gratitude.
"Ah! Ah!"
Just as they were conversing, their attention was once again drawn by a horrific scream emanating from within the Great Luo Sect.
They saw that the cultivators of the Great Luo Sect had faces interwoven with purple-black and blood-red colors.
The Nascent Soul cultivators exchanged glances, their expressions changing as they immediately flew over to the two closest Gold Core cultivators.
The two Gold Core cultivators' bodies and faces fluctuated between the two colors, and their eyes reflected the same purple-black and blood-red hues.
Upon seeing Chu Ning and his group approaching, the two cultivators charged forward in a frenzied state.
"It seems like the conflict between the demonic aura and the blood-colored baleful aura has caused them to lose their sanity," Qu Yichen remarked, waving his hand to restrain the two Gold Core cultivators.
However, what surprised Chu Ning and the others was that the purple-black demonic aura and the blood-colored baleful aura on the two Great Luo Sect cultivators rapidly dissipated.
With their sharp spiritual senses, the Nascent Soul cultivators immediately noticed something amiss.
"Their Gold Cores are absorbing and refining the demonic aura and the blood-colored baleful aura!" Gu Yuxian exclaimed, and the group released their spiritual senses to scan the area.
Within the Great Luo Sect, they saw cultivators either fighting in a frenzied state or cultivating by channeling their aura.
The entire sect was enveloped in demonic energy, resembling a hellish landscape.
Seeing this, Qu Yichen took a deep breath and finally spoke in a cold tone, "It seems that the Extrinsic Demon has long used some secret method to turn all the cultivators of this sect into his cauldrons.
Moreover, the demonic aura has already permeated their bones and marrow.
In that case, there's no need to keep these cultivators alive."
As he finished speaking, Qu Yichen turned to Chu Ning. "Fellow Daoist Chu, call over your sect members.
Let's work together to make sure that no cultivator escapes."
Upon hearing this, Chu Ning immediately sent out a signal.
Soon after, Gong Yuyuan and the other Nine Splendid Sect cultivators arrived.
Witnessing the state of the Great Luo Sect, they were all astonished.
"Fellow Daoists, these people are no longer human cultivators but puppets of the Extrinsic Demon.
Let's not hold back!" Qu Yichen declared, and with that, spells rained down from the sky.
Moments later, the Great Luo Sect, which had once held a small degree of fame within the Cloud Sky Alliance, was utterly annihilated.
