Although Ning Beichen also wanted to go to the mortal realm quickly, the problem was that he had not yet found a passage to the mortal realm.
Therefore, before finding a passage to the mortal realm, they could stay here to continue improving their strength and looking for a way to the mortal realm.
Following Haitang, they began to set up a witch array in Xu Fengshan. However, before the witch array was even finished, a huge avenging army had already arrived outside.
If Xu Fengshan hadn't had a restriction array, they would have already attacked in full force.
"Ning Beichen, there are many enemies outside."
Liu Yilin and Haitang rushed to find Ning Beichen.
"It's alright. Haitang, you continue setting up the witch array. Yilin, you also go help Haitang. I'll deal with the people outside."
Ning Beichen said to them.
Although Xu Fengshan was protected by a restriction array, it could not withstand the attacks of so many people. After all, the formation of an array was conditional.
There were no unbreakable restrictions in the world, nor were there eternally indestructible formations. In the end, formations were also about energy conservation. Once the conserved value was exceeded, they would lose their effect.
There were more than a thousand cultivators outside, attacking the great array of Xu Fengshan. The energy of the great array was being rapidly depleted. It was estimated that the mountain-protecting great array would be broken down before long.
Ning Beichen stood on the back of the bird demon, looking down at the people attacking the great array outside, his face somber.
Since he had killed the sect leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect and their ancestors, Ning Beichen had anticipated this scene, so his heart was very calm.
For Ning Beichen now, he did not take the thousands of cultivators outside into consideration at all. When a person's strength reached a certain level, the number of people was not a condition for weighing victory or defeat.
Whether it was one thousand or ten thousand cultivators, as long as no super experts appeared, it would be as easy as wiping them out with a single move.
The crucial question was whether to kill or not to kill?
From Ning Beichen's heart or conscience, he was unwilling to kill indiscriminately.
However, when the option of peace disappeared, Ning Beichen did not mind becoming a butcher.
If Ning Beichen made the wrong choice today because of his conscience, the future might not bring rewards, but disaster.
As he thought of this, Ning Beichen had already made up his mind.
The central continent was densely populated. What were these one or two thousand people?
If one Heavenly Sword Sect was gone, there would still be Earth Sword Sect, Saber Sword Sect, and Staff Sword Sect. What the world lacked most were people to take their place.
Kill!
Only by killing until they were terrified, until they trembled at the mere mention of his name, would they dare not provoke him.
Therefore, Ning Beichen did not wait for them to forcibly break through Xu Fengshan's great array. Ning Beichen personally opened the mountain-protecting great array.
"The great array has been broken, everyone kill!"
Seeing that the great array of Xu Fengshan had disappeared, the people outside shouted excitedly and rushed into Xu Fengshan like a swarm.
Ning Beichen, standing on the back of the bird demon, watched them with cold, merciless eyes.
"Ning Beichen is there, charge! Avenge the Sect Leader!"
"Avenge the Sect Leader!"
"Kill!"
The more than one thousand cultivators did not stop, nor did they have any strategy. They just charged in blindly, as if they were snatching women, whoever grabbed them first would be theirs.
"Bird demon, kill them."
Ning Beichen ordered the bird demon beneath him. Dealing with these people did not require him to act. As long as no one with the strength of an ancestor stepped in, it was enough to deal with them with the bird demon.
Upon receiving the order, the bird demon spread its wings and flew towards them, swinging the long sword tied to its leg with a chain.
Do not assume that demonic beasts cannot use weapons. Ning Beichen's bird demon not only had a spear in its claws but also carried one in its beak.
After the bird demon charged in like a windmill, the sword light mercilessly reaped lives, bringing forth a rain of blood.
Moreover, the bird demon did not just use weapons primitively. It could infuse its demonic energy into the weapons. Especially under Ning Beichen's guidance, the bird demon's strength had become even more terrifying.
Screams and corpses or remains littered the ground, the scene stained red with blood, and a strong smell of blood could be detected even ten centimeters away.
"Bird demon, how dare you be so arrogant!"
At this moment, a white-bearded old man in eight trigrams robes emerged from the crowd and let out a roar, slashing at the bird demon.
With a boom!
A massive sword light shot up into the sky, hitting the bird demon in the sky and immediately sending it flying. This caused the cultivators below to erupt in cheers.
"Hmph! How dare a mere beast be so arrogant? Today, this old man will surely slay you with my blade..."
The old man said triumphantly.
However, before he could finish speaking, a thin bloodline suddenly appeared on his neck, followed by a gurgling sound. His head fell off.
Those who had been cheering instantly fell silent, fear appearing on their faces, for they had not seen who had killed the old man.
This old man was one of the Grand Elders of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and his strength had already reached the level of an ancestor. Yet, he was gone just like that.
"Bird demon, kill them."
Ning Beichen once again gave the bird demon the order.
The bird demon let out a cry and swooped down with lightning. With a loud noise, blue electric light spread and exploded on the ground, sending the cultivators on the ground flying.
Except for a few other strong individuals like ancestors, no one was the bird demon's match.
The more than one thousand cultivators, who had come to Xu Fengshan with full confidence to avenge Ning Beichen, found that they hadn't even seen the face of their enemy before more than half of them were killed or injured.
The remaining cultivators were already terrified. What revenge? They were just disciples, and no one wanted to die.
"Escape!"
The remaining cultivators fled outwards from Xu Fengshan, but to compete with the bird demon in speed was like throwing an egg against a rock.
If they didn't escape, they might still be able to resist the bird demon's attack. But once they had the thought of escaping, it was undoubtedly a dead end.
The bird demon continuously swung the long sword under its claws, like a god of death, relentlessly harvesting the lives of cultivators.
Before long, the cultivators who had come to Xu Fengshan for revenge were heavily injured, with less than a hundred people still alive. The rest were either dead or crippled.
"Surrender, I surrender."
The more than a hundred people who had lost their courage knelt down with a thud.
Now, their mental defenses had long been broken by the bird demon. The glory and arrogance of the first sect had long since vanished.
More than a thousand disciples had almost died here, and what could the remaining few do?
Revenge?
How ridiculous!
They hadn't even seen the face of their enemy, and they had been almost annihilated by even a bird demon.
What could they use for revenge?
Their courage?
But who could give them courage?
