But if he didn't kill them, even Yang Qi would be exhausted to death if he wanted to stop these thirty or so practitioners who had been possessed by the devil!
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
Before Yang Qi could make any decision, the demonic practitioners who had surrounded him had already launched an attack on Yang Qi. One fierce attack after another poured towards Yang Qi like a rainstorm.
"Stop it for me!"
Facing the incoming attacks, Yang Qi shook the Black Phoenix Sword in his hand, and his own strength burst out completely. With a fierce attack, he easily blocked all the incoming attacks.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
After missing the first attack, the possessed practitioners did not stop at all and launched attacks again, pouring towards Yang Qi. For the possessed practitioners, at this moment, either Yang Qi would die or they would die, there was no other choice.
Boom! Boom!
In the hall, earth-shaking noises continued to spread, and terrifying energy storms continued to shake. Facing the tireless and fearless demonic practitioners, Yang Qi's energy was rapidly consumed.
"Alas~"
Looking at the familiar face in front of him who only knew how to kill and had no emotions, Yang Qi sighed in his heart. If he was still hesitating before, now he has made a decision in his heart.
“Have a nice journey!”
Yang Qi sighed softly and shook the Black Phoenix Sword in his hand. Sharp sword beams burst out from his hand and slashed towards the demons who were attacking from all sides.
For those who have been possessed by demons, dying without pain may be the greatest relief for them!
Puff~Puff~
The power of Yang Qi when he unleashed his full force was so terrifying that the people who were possessed by the devil had no power to resist at all. In just a moment, they were all killed by Yang Qi. In the blink of an eye, Yang Qi was the only one left in the hall filled with demonic energy.
"Am I really doing this right?"
Looking at the empty hall, a bitter smile appeared on Yang Qi's face. Even if killing all the possessed people would be a relief for them, he still felt uncomfortable after actually doing so. After all, living beings are not just machines that know right from wrong, they have their own feelings.
Wow~
At this moment, the demonic energy in the hall began to gather towards the round pit. In the blink of an eye, the originally extremely dense demonic energy completely disappeared, leaving only Yang Qi left in the hall.
"phantom?"
As the evil spirit disappeared, Yang Qi's consciousness suddenly returned to normal. Looking at the empty hall, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
Everything that happened before seemed like a real experience, but when Yang Qi recalled his previous experience, he found that there were many unreasonable things in it. Just killing dozens of elite children of the Long family was not justifiable. Rather than saying it was a real experience, it was better to say it was an experience in an illusion.
Yang Qi raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, "But why did the owner of the ruins do this?"
Buzz~
Just as Yang Qi was thinking about himself, a strange wave came from not far away, and then a familiar figure appeared in front of Yang Qi.
"Longteng!"
Looking at the person coming, Yang Qi was completely sure that the previous experience was an illusion. After all, before that illusion, he had killed Long Teng in front of him.
"Long Qi!"
Long Teng's gaze fell on Yang Qi, and a hint of surprise flashed across his face. Yang Qi actually appeared earlier than him. Doesn't that mean that Yang Qi passed the test earlier than him
“I didn’t expect that you passed the test of demonic possession so quickly. It seems that your strength is probably not just as simple as a nine-star martial emperor.” Long Teng looked at Yang Qi and said.
Upon hearing this, Yang Qi quickly said modestly, "Your Highness is not the same. I am just a step ahead of you."
He is not a cultivator from the Long family, but he sneaked into the Wu Tomb secretly. He does not want to attract the attention of Long Teng in front of him. The other party is a prince of the royal family. If he attracts his attention, the other party may find some clues about him with a little investigation.
"I am different from you. I am a prince of the royal family." Long Teng said in a deep voice.
"Um?"
Yang Qi was stunned and looked at Long Teng in confusion. Was this related to Long Teng's identity as a royal highness
"You don't know what the blood of the devil dragon represents, but we know it very well." Long Teng glanced at Yang Qi and continued, "The Long family of my Longwu Dynasty has a special bloodline. The blood of the devil dragon is contained in their bodies, but their devilish nature is extremely strong. The stronger the strength, the stronger the blood power in the body, and the stronger the devilish nature. Therefore, the most important thing for our Long family practitioners in the process of cultivation is to overcome the devilish nature. As a royal highness, I have known this for a long time, so in the test of becoming a devil, I actually took the lead."
I see!
After hearing Long Teng's explanation, Yang Qi immediately understood. No wonder Long Teng said it was related to his own identity as His Highness. Because he was a cultivator trained by the royal family, he knew the disadvantages of the magic dragon bloodline and how to deal with it. Naturally, he had the upper hand in this regard.
"Maybe it's because I'm good at souls, so I have some advantages in this area." Yang Qi said with a smile.
No matter what, if he can avoid attracting the attention of Long Teng in front of him, he will try his best not to attract the other party's attention. He doesn't want to cause trouble for himself.
“Maybe!”
Long Teng nodded without comment. Having a strong soul would indeed give him some advantages, but he had a hunch that Yang Qi's strength was definitely more than just a strong soul.
It's a pity that Yang Qi has a treasure that can conceal his aura, so he can't detect Yang Qi at all, and naturally he can't make a more detailed judgment. He can only make some judgments based on the methods Yang Qi has displayed before.
As if to confirm Long Teng's guess, with Long Teng's arrival, the two waited for a while, but no other practitioners arrived. Nearly twenty breaths passed before the third practitioner arrived. Then practitioners arrived one after another, and finally there were nine practitioners who successfully arrived at the hall. The other practitioners had obviously failed. Among the practitioners who came, Yang Qi was only familiar with Long Feng and Long Su. The others were all practitioners from the royal family and the Zhennan King's lineage.
Long Feng looked at the nine people in front of him and said with a wry smile, "I didn't expect that only nine of us would succeed in the first test."
Even though there were a total of three people from the Zhendong King's lineage, among the three, Yang Qi and Long Su were not practitioners from the Zhendong King's lineage. In fact, he was the only one among the entire Zhendong King's lineage who arrived here, making him the one with the least number of practitioners among the three major branches.
"I didn't expect that I could succeed. I almost couldn't hold on just now." Long Su said with emotion.
Long Su was the last practitioner to arrive. No one had any doubts about his words. After all, he was the weakest among everyone.
A cultivator from the royal family looked at the hall in front of him and asked curiously, "I wonder what the reward is this time?" (To be continued)
