North State, the far northern land

A group of people on horseback were fleeing in panic, with dozens of cultivators behind them emitting strange cries. These cultivators seemed unconcerned, only continuously making strange noises to intimidate the fleeing people. Occasionally, when someone was left behind, they would swarm over and kill them.

"Plop"

All of a sudden, the person running at the front seemed to have hit a layer of water, making a light sound, and their figure disappeared. The people behind, focused on running for their lives, didn’t notice that one by one, they were disappearing.

However, the pursuers did see it and quickly stopped. One of them said. Boss, what’s going on? Why are people disappearing?

"There’s no response from my divine sense, undoubtedly, it’s a formation. Strange, we’re already in the far northern land. It’s either the demon race or the Human Demon Clan. How could they have a formation?"

The leader said. The Human Demon Clan has been suppressed miserably. They basically don’t have any high-level immortal path inheritance. Pills, talismans, items, and formations are completely foreign to them, or at a very low level. This doesn’t seem like something they could have caused.

"Boss, what should we do?"

"Go and check, these people must all be killed, otherwise the City Lord will blame me, and I can’t bear the consequences."

The leader said, they were originally a group of thieves from North State, but now they are members of Xiaotian City. Xiaotian City has strict rules for them, reward for accomplishments and severe punishment for mistakes. There is no room for favoritism, because everything is done fairly, and no one has any complaints.

The group of people who disappeared just now were from a tribe called Human Demon Tribe. They secretly bypassed the patrol route of Xiaotian City and traded with some independent cultivators in a small market. However, they were eventually discovered. In order to deter other villages, Xiaotian City must punish them severely, otherwise other villages will not trade with Xiaotian City obediently.

The group continued to move forward cautiously. Soon, they crossed a barrier that resembled a surface of water. As they entered the barrier, a warm breath rushed towards them, like entering a different world from the icy outside. 𝐑𝘈Ν𝐎ΒĘS

However, what they saw was a scene full of the sound of birds and the fragrance of flowers. But instead of feeling joyous, everyone’s mood sank to the bottom, and they even dared not to move forward.

"Our divine senses couldn’t detect anything. It’s as if those people disappeared into thin air. Let’s retreat, this is beyond our abilities to handle."

The leader said in a deep voice, setting up a barrier using formation was not anything special, but it was different in North State. It was because North State was extremely barren and had very few spiritual veins. They knew all the existing spiritual veins, but this place was not within their awareness. They instinctively sensed danger.

Everyone quickly turned around and prepared to leave, but even though the barrier was right in front of them, they couldn’t fly through it. It was like hitting a wall, unable to fly outside the barrier no matter what.

"What is that?"

Just when everyone was panicked, a red cloud suddenly flew over from far away, causing everyone’s faces to change drastically.

The leader summoned a flying sword, but the sword went through the red cloud without stopping it from approaching. Immediately, everyone began casting spells and using fire magic.

"Effective!"

As the fire burned, the red cloud started shrinking. Everyone was overjoyed, and some people used a lot of spiritual talismans to quickly dry up the red cloud.

However, their happiness didn’t last long because another, even larger, red cloud appeared. Before they could stop it, they were swept away by the red cloud.

"Blood, it’s the Blood Worms. They’re sucking our blood."

"Quick, let’s go!"

"Run out!"

The group of people shouted in terror, but the layers of red cloud had already surrounded them.

········

North State – a place in the far north

A flying boat landed, and Lin Chaosheng and the others walked out of the boat. What came into view was a sea of crimson, with blood and body parts everywhere.

"They are our people."

"Exactly, they are our people. Judging by their appearance, it doesn’t seem like they were killed by monsters, but rather dismembered by a sharp weapon. The cuts are clean."

"Even their precious treasures were sliced to pieces. The culprit is no less than a powerful Nascent Soul cultivator."

A group of people quickly examined the severed body parts on the ground and reached a preliminary conclusion that these people from Xiaotian City were killed by skilled individuals.

"Uncle, what should we do? Starting from this month, the losses of manpower and horses in Xiaotian City have been severe. We have one unsolved case after another."

Someone asked, ever since Xiaotian City was founded, there has never been peace, and deaths occur almost every day.

However, the previous incidents were all well-documented. Either they were retaliations from the old bandits, or they were the rebellions of the evil North State or the Human Demon Clan.

But starting this month, they have already lost several teams of patrol troops, and the key is that they cannot find the culprit. It’s like a series of unsolved cases. Now, Xiaotian City is furious and has sent multiple teams to investigate.

"Most likely it was done by some evil cultivators. We will definitely find out."

Lin Chaosheng’s face turned gloomy. Xiaotian City is the largest stronghold of evil sects. However, Lin Batian has already cleaned it up. They are determined to eliminate those who enjoy killing or practice killing.

This has caused some evil sects to join Xiaotian City and then leave again, wandering in North State. Lin Chaosheng thinks it’s these people who are responsible.

"Uncle, send out the distress signal."

Suddenly, someone beside him said, holding a token that was glowing at the moment.

"Let’s go and rescue them."

As soon as Lin Chaosheng saw it, he immediately signaled everyone to fly onto the flying ship and swiftly followed the guidance of the token.

After traveling for thousands of miles, Lin Chaosheng and the others saw a group of patrolling soldiers, who were huddled together back to back. In front of them, there was a person dressed in a black robe, slowly approaching. This person was covered in blood, appearing as if possessed.

"Run, sir! It’s Killing Demon Su Chang."

Some of the patrolling soldiers exclaimed in fear, causing Lin Chaosheng and the others to immediately stop their flying boat.

"It was also done by Killing Demon Su Chang."

"Retreat!"

"There’s no time, form a defensive formation!"

While they were talking, the person in the black robe had already reached the front of the flying boat. They swung their sword, causing the boat to shatter. Lin Chaosheng and the others quickly scattered.

"Ah!"

However, someone was still hit and let out a scream. The person in the black robe captured the injured individual and used their spiritual power to suppress their abilities. They fell to the ground.

"Shout, shout quickly."

The person in the black robe looked at the injured person and softly called out.

"Don’t shout, Killing Demon Su Chang loves torturing and killing others. The more you shout, the more excited he gets."

Someone reminded, but before they could finish speaking, the person in the black robe turned around and slashed with a knife, directly killing them even though they tried to resist with all their might.

Lin Chaosheng took a deep breath, exchanged glances with several Lin family disciples, and then they all simultaneously released dozens of Sound Passing Talismans, seeking help together.

"Senior Su, these are all people from Xiaotian City. Please spare them."

Lin Chaosheng said with a brave face, Killing Demon Su Chang was someone he had heard of before, a deranged killer who used to be active in North State. He loved torturing cultivators and the more agonizing their screams before death, the more excited he became. It was said that this could stimulate his cultivation.

Although North State was a gathering place for thieves and evil cultivators, they couldn’t tolerate someone like him. Many years ago, they had joined forces to kill him, but somehow he still survived.

"What is Xiaotian City?"

"Senior, in Xiaotian City, there are several powerful Void Achievers guarding. Please think carefully, senior."

"I have no father, no mother, no wife, no children, no siblings. I am all alone. So what if someone achieves Void attainment?"

The person in the black robe smiled and said, he had achieved true invulnerability. With no one to worry about, he would kill people and then run away, finding a random place to hide. What could anyone do to him?

Lin Chaosheng was at a loss for words, unsure of how to respond. Dealing with someone who had no family or companions, the usual methods were not very effective.

"Everyone scatter and break through. Whoever can run away, run away."

Lin Chaosheng whispered to the people around him, then he took out several magical talismans. He was the first one to rush out, and the others quickly followed, trying to escape.

The person in the black robe chuckled. He only used his magic to catch a few unlucky ones, then left the area. As for the others, he didn’t care. He had already killed enough today. Leaving a few for tomorrow was like hunting – killing all the prey at once would be boring. It had to be done gradually.

After a moment, a figure descended, but all that could be seen was bloodstains everywhere. Killing Demon Su Chang had long gone without a trace. He tried to use magic to search, but there were no clues. He could only leave with resentment.
