Lin Jichen didn't even use any skills; he just relied on his movement technique and awareness to wildly swing his sword among the crowd, sending out waves of Sword Qi.
As long as he hit someone, his basic attack damage would increase by 5%.
In just a moment, Lin Jichen's basic attack damage had already stacked up to 100%!
Now, each of his sword strikes came with a critical hit. Even if he didn't hit a vital spot, it was no different from a Critical Hit.
However, Lin Jichen wasn't completely unscathed.
Without using skills and relying solely on basic attacks, he inevitably took quite a few hits under such a dense barrage of attacks, especially while avoiding the Golden Core demonic cultivator from the Inner Temple.
But what made all the disciples of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect despair was that 30% of their attacks were automatically dodged, and most of the remaining 70% couldn't break through Lin Jichen's defense.
Only by using skills or hitting his weak points could they deal a few hundred to a thousand points of damage.
However, with just a few sword strikes from Lin Jichen, the lifesteal effect of the Bloodthirsty Heart Sutra allowed him to quickly recover health without needing to use any potions.
The gaunt man felt he could take down Lin Jichen.
But Lin Jichen deliberately moved among the disciples, making the gaunt man hesitant to attack, fearing he might harm his own people.
So, he could only watch anxiously.
Seeing Lin Jichen fight more fiercely, the gaunt man lost his patience and roared, "You bunch of useless trash, get out of my way!"
The disciples immediately retreated upon hearing this.
But Lin Jichen didn't let up, chasing after these demonic cultivators like a relentless plague, impossible to shake off.
In the blink of an eye, ten seconds had passed.
Lin Jichen slashed at a later-stage Crystal Formation demonic cultivator, striking him squarely in the face!
That strike split the demonic cultivator's face with a terrifying crack.
At this moment, a purple lightning sword phantom condensed beside Lin Jichen, automatically slashing towards the enemy, piercing through his shoulder.
[Critical Hit! -3850!]
[Lightning Sword! -1000!]
In an instant, a high amount of damage was dealt, triggering the 'Death Execution' on the Dark Night Sword, turning the demonic cultivator into a ghost under the sword.
A shield appeared on Lin Jichen, small with only 100 points.
It seemed less impressive than the 'Swordmaster's Path' skill of the Dark Night Sword.
But this shield could stack infinitely.
Lin Jichen seemed to be immersed in the simple act of swinging his sword, chasing down one disciple after another, continuously hunting the remaining disciples of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect.
Those Crystal Formation demonic cultivators couldn't withstand a few of his sword strikes before falling from the sky, their bodies smashing into a bloody pulp.
The more they fought, the more terrified they became, eventually reaching the point of fleeing in panic.
Lin Jichen once again entangled a disciple of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect like a loach, using him to stack the passive effect of the Falling Thunder Sword Technique while making the gaunt man hesitant to attack.
Finally, the gaunt man could no longer bear it. He activated his demonic power, and a dark demonic spear appeared in his hand, surging with dark light, thrusting explosively towards Lin Jichen!
Lin Jichen continued to use the Ten Thousand Demon Sect disciples as cover, not believing the gaunt man would attack.
But he underestimated the ruthlessness of demonic cultivators. The gaunt man had already made up his mind to kill, and with one thrust, he pierced through his own sect's disciple.
"Su... Su Senior Brother... you..."
The demonic cultivator disciple looked back at him in disbelief.
Sui Wei, extremely impatient, activated his demonic power, causing the spear to explode with incredible power inside the disciple, blasting him into pieces.
"Useless trash, you're just a waste! Anyone who blocks my sight will be killed without mercy!"
Sui Wei had lost all patience, his ferocity fully revealed.
The remaining disciples were terrified and retreated even faster.
Lin Jichen floated back, looking down at the wound on his chest.
The spear had pierced through the disciple and still managed to hit him. He hadn't expected Sui Wei to be so ruthless, killing his own people.
But this minor wound, less than a hundred points, made him chuckle.
[Demonic Cultivator: Sui Wei]
[Sect: Ten Thousand Demon Sect]
[Cultivation: Early-Golden Elixir]
[Vitality: 41000/41000]
[Heart Protection: 15]
Seeing Sui Wei's attributes, Lin Jichen couldn't help but laugh.
He had overestimated him. His own defense was at least 325. Although Sui Wei was a Golden Core Inner Temple disciple, he wasn't on the same level as someone like Li Xinghun.
Just like when he had fought Inner Temple disciples of the Sword Sect, he had easily defeated them.
He had assumed every Inner Temple disciple was incredibly strong, but it turned out, not really.
Sui Wei didn't realize he was just scratching Lin Jichen. His attention had been on his fellow disciples.
After scolding the other disciples, he gripped his dark spear and charged at Lin Jichen!
Lin Jichen no longer had the intention to avoid the sharp edge and take on the easier targets first. He faced Sui Wei head-on!
The two clashed in mid-air!
Sui Wei's spear thrust was blocked by Lin Jichen's sword, the sword tip precisely hitting the spear tip, causing a burst of energy waves from both weapons.
Lin Jichen still didn't use any skills. He twisted his wrist, stepping through the void like a meteor, his sword blade swiftly closing in along the spear shaft.
Seeing this, Sui Wei's left hand turned into a palm, waving in the void!
A piece of black cloth suddenly flew out, spinning rapidly in the air, forming a black hole that emitted demonic energy, hiding a deadly threat!
Lin Jichen had to abandon his close-range attack, activating Phantom Step to retreat from the danger before the black hole could swallow him.
He couldn't be careless. Although Sui Wei's attributes were far inferior, Inner Temple disciples might have powerful Magic Treasures. Lin Jichen didn't want to fall into a trap.
He also had Magic Treasures. Leng Feiyan had given him powerful talismans before she went into seclusion.
But Lin Jichen wouldn't waste them on someone like Sui Wei.
Seeing Lin Jichen retreat, Sui Wei, skilled in combat, instantly pursued.
A spear thrust successfully pierced Lin Jichen's shoulder.
Sui Wei finally saw his damage.
Sui Wei's eyes went blank for a second.
His small brain filled with question marks.
"Sigh, seeing you struggle to deal 80 points of damage reminds me of my own struggles against the Hell Boar God. It's really heartbreaking."
Lin Jichen clicked his tongue, unable to hide the smug smile on his face.
What goes around comes around. Thirty years on the east bank, don't underestimate the young and poor. Thirty years later, he had moved to the west bank.
Sui Wei felt like he had hit rock bottom. A Golden Core cultivator couldn't even cut through a Crystal Formation rookie's skin?
What kind of nonsense was this! Hacks! There must be hacks!
"But now, it's my turn!"
Lin Jichen gave a wicked smile, not waiting for Sui Wei to react.
With a flick of his wrist, his sword trembled!
In an instant, countless cold lights burst from the sword, filling the sky with sword shadows.
Lin Jichen finally remembered he had skills.
Sword Qi spread like frost!
Sui Wei wasn't one to sit and wait for death. He used his movement technique to dodge Lin Jichen's Frost Moon Slash.
Inner Temple disciples did have some skills.
