Chapter 226: Recruitment

The situation here immediately drew everyone’s attention!

“Number Six has been killed!”

“Damned scum, hiding his cultivation!”

“Let’s all attack and kill him!”

Boom!

The remaining nine Demon Bandits, seeing their companion killed, activated their celestial power and transformed into beams of light rushing towards Chen Ansheng.

“Congeal Abyss!”

Chen Ansheng invoked a spell, forming a deep chasm around himself.

As the nine Demon Bandits charged in, black chains of law emerged like swimming dragons, binding them.

“Not good, this guy is a spell cultivator!”

The nine knew too well the terrifying nature of spell cultivators and became alarmed.

“We need to fight him up close to win, quickly, everyone break the restraints with all your might!”

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The nine sea demon bandits roared together, their bodies suddenly swelling into black demons with fish heads and human bodies.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The powerful demon fairy power surged forth, forcibly breaking the chains that bound them.

“Kill!”

Once the nine sea demons broke free, they dashed towards Chen Ansheng in an instant, closing the distance to less than a hundred yards.

“Freeze Space!”

Feeling the terrifying power, Chen Ansheng activated the Extreme Shield Tengen guard while freezing the space within a hundred-yard radius.

“Brothers, this guy is only capable of this much. Let’s charge with all our strength! As long as we get close to him, he will undoubtedly die!”

The sea demons were correct in their assessment; due to the frail physique of spell cultivators, once they got close, they essentially lost their ability to fight back.

But they did not know that Chen Ansheng was a dual cultivator of techniques and martial arts!

“Creak!”

The solidified space was forcibly broken by the demon fairy power, with one sea demon leading the charge towards Chen Ansheng.

“You scum! Dare to resist and kill my brother? Die!”

The sea demon opened its mouth, filled with sharp teeth, like a black hole, and bit towards Chen Ansheng’s head.

“Clang!”

Chen Ansheng summoned a sword sheath, condensing a tangible sword intent within it, and then swiftly drew it out!

This sword sheath was a treasure gifted by Elder Ji, accompanied by amplification laws.

When the sword was drawn, it could layer the sword intent, exponentially increasing the attack’s power!

“Die!”

Chen Ansheng raised his sword and struck at the sea demon’s head.

Swish!

The unparalleled sword intent easily broke through the sea demon’s tough defenses.

With one sword strike, it split the demon in half!

“He actually knows swordsmanship!”

“This guy is incredibly powerful!”

“How can someone in the mid-stage of the profound fairy realm possess such terrifying swordsmanship!”

“We’re done for, we have provoked a monstrous being who is a dual cultivator of techniques and martial arts!”

The remaining sea demons were filled with dread.

Not only they were terrified, but the few people who were robbed in the front were also immensely shocked.

“A dual cultivator of techniques and martial arts; I finally see the legendary dual cultivator. Truly impressive!”

“Brother Wu, let’s quickly assist him; perhaps we can befriend him!”

“Befriend? You’re thinking too much. We don’t know what power has summoned this monstrous character; how can we easily befriend him? While he’s entangled with the sea demons, we should hurry into the city!”

“Brother Wu is right. He might be summoned by a hostile force; we better not complicate things.”

After a brief discussion, they quickly flew away, escaping swiftly.

On the other side.

The fearful sea demons, not daring to seek death any longer, prepared to escape.

“Where do you think you’re going!”

Seeing the sea demons wanting to flee, Chen Ansheng focused his mind, and several golden law rings materialized out of thin air, binding those few.

“You dare to kill my sea tribe and aren’t afraid of being torn to shreds?”

The leading sea demon roared angrily.

“Grandpa has already killed two stinky fish and rotten shrimps; do you still dare threaten Grandpa?”

Chen Ansheng said as he transformed into a sword shadow, shooting forward with incredible speed.

“Thunderous Ten Thousand Swords!”

In an instant, thousands of unmatched sword shadows appeared, attacking the sea demons.

“Brothers, we’ll fight to the last!”

With no means of escape, the sea demons summoned their weapons and unleashed their full power at the peak of the late profound fairy realm.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

They raised their claws to strike wildly, launching waves of celestial power in an attempt to resist Chen Ansheng’s sword intent.

But Chen Ansheng’s sword intent was augmented with true damage laws; it could break through material defenses and cut through celestial power as well!

That vast multitude of sword shadows diminished significantly, yet dozens still crashed into the bodies of the sea demons.

After a series of crisp sounds, the black armor of the sea demons shattered, leaving them covered in wounds and blood.

“Send you on your way!”

Chen Ansheng struck again, raising his celestial sword and swinging it forward.

A wave of sword intent surged toward the sea demons.

“Great King, save me!”

Sensing the impending death crisis, the leading sea demon cried out for help.

At the same time, a powerful celestial force manifested as a palm print, attacking from an unknown direction.

“Boom!”

The palm print struck the bodies of the sea demons, instantly obliterating them to nothingness.

Then, a figure emerged from the rippling space.

Chen Ansheng’s heart sank, and he furrowed his brow, staring at the person before him.

It was a young woman in blue clothing, looking very youthful, yet she exuded an extremely terrifying celestial energy.

Chen Ansheng was somewhat flustered and quickly released a binding spell in secret.

However, the chain of the spell hadn’t even reached the woman before it was crushed to nothingness by the celestial energy radiating from her.

Chen Ansheng was taken aback.

This woman seemed to have transcended part of the laws!

Which meant she was the Immortal King?

“What? Don’t you thank me for saving your life?”

Seeing Chen Ansheng in a daze, the woman turned her face and spoke up.

Chen Ansheng forced a smile and said, “I could have killed those demon bandits on my own; you just swooped in to take advantage. How is there a life-saving grace to speak of?”

The woman said nonchalantly, “I don’t care about that; you owe me a life.”

Chen Ansheng shrugged helplessly, “What does the Immortal want? Please speak plainly.”

“Straightforward.” The woman curled her lips into a slight smile. “Let’s not beat around the bush. I want to recruit you under my banner. What say you?”

Chen Ansheng raised an eyebrow.

This woman must have noticed his dual cultivation of techniques and martial arts and wanted him to serve her.

But having come to the Abyssal Dragon Sea this time, he did not intend to and could not affiliate with any force. Otherwise, summoning a genius from the lower realms would expose all secrets.

So, Chen Ansheng replied, “To be honest, I already have a master. I apologize, Immortal.”

“Oh? Whom do you serve?” the woman asked casually.

“Immortal King Chen,” Chen Ansheng blurted out.

“There are eighteen Immortal Kings here, and I am well aware of them. I’ve never heard of anyone with the surname Chen. Kid, you’re a bit ungrateful,” the woman said coldly.

“Please calm your anger, Immortal. The Immortal King Chen I’m referring to is precisely the Nineteenth Immortal King, hence you may not know him,” Chen Ansheng said calmly.

The woman stared at Chen Ansheng, and within her cold pupils, a trace of killing intent flickered.
