Chapter 270 - 186: The Old-timers

Chapter 270: Chapter 186: The Old-timers

More than twenty years had passed, and at the age of sixty-one, Sikong Jue had successfully broken through to the Rebirth Realm.

In private, Lu Changfeng had once helped Sikong Jue raise his bloodline concentration to its peak. This was one of the reasons he was able to reach the Rebirth Realm.

"Hmm?"

The Zhengyi Sword felled a giant tree.

Sikong Jue noticed something was amiss.

"What is it?" Teng Xiaofan’s figure materialized beside Sikong Jue.

Teng Xiaofan, now in his seventies, had graying hair, but because he had advanced to the Rebirth Realm, his skin was still as smooth as an infant’s.

Teng Xiaofan had since taken over Lu Changfeng’s position, becoming the new leader of the Holy Sect’s Law Enforcement Demon Sect.

Due to his relationship with Lu Changfeng, Saint Hong also placed great trust in Teng Xiaofan. Over the years, he had assigned several important tasks to Teng Xiaofan, allowing this second-generation leader of the Law Enforcement Demon Sect to build a formidable reputation. No one dared to cross him.

Name: Teng Xiaofan

Root Bone: Middle A Class

Talent: Middle Grade Talent [Transformation], High-Grade Talent [Flying Swallow].

Teng Xiaofan’s Root Bone could only be considered decent, not top-tier.

His ability to advance to the Rebirth Realm with a mere Middle A Class Root Bone was, of course, thanks to Lu Changfeng.

More than a decade ago, Lu Changfeng had expended a Primordial Stone and used a Gathering Array to help Teng Xiaofan break through to the Rebirth Realm.

"Just now, I think I felt the probe of a Demon Sense. It was there and gone in a flash," Sikong Jue said with a grave expression.

"Understood. I’ll go get Zhisha." Teng Xiaofan activated his ghostly Body Technique and vanished.

A moment later, Zhisha, also in his sixties, walked over.

Zhisha had taken over from Xuansha as the new leader of the Dark Buddha Demon Sect. He was also at the Rebirth Realm and specialized in External Skills.

Now, after several decades of serving together in the Holy Sect and with many opportunities to cooperate, the bond between Teng Xiaofan, Sikong Jue, and Zhisha was naturally extraordinary.

The three were known as the "Iron Triangle."

The trio had perfect synergy. After a brief discussion, Teng Xiaofan took the lead, tracking in the direction the Demon Sense had vanished.

Zhisha followed close behind, bringing up the rear.

Meanwhile, Sikong Jue continued to clear a path with his sword.

After less than an hour, a message slip on Sikong Jue’s chest vibrated slightly.

Sikong Jue took out the message slip to read it. Just as they suspected, a Demon Soldier was spying on their main force.

Teng Xiaofan had confirmed that it was a Demon Race member at the Early-stage Little Demon level, which was equivalent to a Martial Artist of the Human Race in the Rebirth Realm.

In that case, there was no need to trouble the main army.

Sikong Jue gripped his Spirit Sword and rushed forward.

Before long, Sikong Jue arrived and took in the scene.

A Demon Python, over ten meters long, was being blocked head-on by Zhisha. Teng Xiaofan weaved around the area, preventing the Demon Python from escaping.

The Demon Python coiled around Zhisha, attempting to crush him to a pulp. However, Zhisha’s entire body shimmered with a protective light and was incredibly tough. The Demon Python’s immense strength seemed to vanish into an abyss.

Seeing the situation, Sikong Jue didn’t need his two old partners to say a word. He immediately raised his sword and slashed at the Demon Python.

Among the three of them, his attack power was the highest!

Sikong Jue wasn’t afraid of hitting Zhisha, as he was well aware of his partner’s powerful defense. The Sword Energy he released would pose no threat to Zhisha’s life.

Crying out in pain, the Demon Python unleashed a Demon Fiend Skill in an attempt to escape. Teng Xiaofan intercepted it from the side, weakening its power. Zhisha took the brunt of the diminished attack, then turned and threw his arms around the Demon Python, preventing its escape.

Seizing the opportunity, Sikong Jue unleashed a fatal Spiritual Martial Arts technique. A brilliant Sword Aura split the massive python in two.

The three then attacked in unison, and just like that, an Early-stage Little Demon of the Demon Race was defeated by their flawless coordination.
