Feng Shaoyu swung his saber at the horned demons' leader.
The leader felt threatened by Feng Shaoyu's attack and immediately gave up on killing the girl in blue.
The other horned demons stopped their attacks against the two other people when they saw how powerful this Celestialspirit Sect's disciple was and stared at him cautiously.
"You three, come over here!" Stopping several thousand meters away, Feng Shaoyu called out to the trio who were severely injured.
They flew toward Feng Shaoyu while letting out a sigh of relief as they knew that they would be safe now.
As an ungodly genius of Towering Sky Peak, there were few in Celestialspirit Sect who didn't know Feng Shaoyu.
"Boy, you're very strong!" The horned demons' leader spoke with a grim expression.
This leader had a pair of red-colored horn on his head and was wearing a black shirt made from animal skins. The exposed scale armor on his body was giving off a blackish-purple glow that amplified his mightiness.
"You shall die now!" Feng Shaoyu was unwilling to speak further. His saber radiance tore through the sky and headed for the dozen or so horned demons with an unstoppable might.
Tens of thousands of saber Qi engulfed this entire area and gave the horned demons nowhere to escape to.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
After a single wave of attacks, the dozen horned demons all disappeared and left nothing behind but many torn limbs.
HISS!
The trio from Dark Sky Peak gasped at seeing this.
He's too powerful! He'd killed all the horned demons so easily!
Although Feng Shaoyu's cultivation was a level below theirs, he was so much stronger than them!
Even Su Mo was secretly amazed. He's powerful! Super powerful!
Feng Shaoyu's saber momentum was too domineering for those who were weaker than him. It left them no chance to fight back.
Tian Chen and Yun Fei remained indifferent as they knew well about Feng Shaoyu's strength. Even if these horned demons were at Lv 6 Enlightenment Realm, they couldn't have survived his blow. The demons, being only at Lv 5, stood no chance at all.
Su Mo and the others then flew toward Feng Shaoyu.
"Junior Brothers, retrieve the horns of these demons!" Feng Shaoyu spoke to the three of them. However, since the demons were all chopped up, there were only 7 horns left.
As Su Mo grabbed a teal horn, he felt an unknown energy that was apparently beneficial for martial artists' cultivation.
The horns of horned demons differed in colors. There were teal, grey, blue, and red ones.
For no apparent reason, Su Mo had a strange feeling while holding the horn. His Five Elements Vital Spirit even trembled slightly as if it had a connection with the horn.
"This is weird!" Su Mo felt bewildered.
The three disciples that Feng Shaoyu rescued came to their senses and bowed toward him.
"Thank you for saving us!"
"You're welcome!"
Feng Shanyu took a good look and discovered that they were badly hurt, so he said, "It isn't safe for you to stay here anymore. Return to Demon-controlling Fort quickly!"
They nodded in agreement and left for Demon-controlling Fort after bowing at him again.
"Senior Brothers, how are the horns beneficial for martial artists?" Su Mo asked Yun Fei and the rest as he stared at the teal horn in his hand. He wanted to find out why the horn gave him an unusual sense.
Yun Fei smiled and replied, "11th Junior Brother, the horns of horned demons are rich in Demonic Spirit Essence which can improve our cultivation! The stronger the horned demon is, the more Demonic Spirit Essence its horns contain!"
"Then why are there different colors?" Su Mo asked again.
"The horns come in five colors, gold, teal, blue, red, and grey. They correspond respectively to the colors of the five elements, gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, just like the colors of your Vital Spirit. However, these horns only contain a trace amount of the five elements!" Yun Fei continued to explain.
"Oh?" Su Mo furrowed his brows. Correspond to the colors of the five elements? Could the connection to his Five Elements Vital Spirit be due to the five elements?
But, that doesn't make sense!
The teal horn in his hand contained virtually zero wood element!
Moreover, there were countless objects in the outer world that contained the five elements, but he had never felt such a connection before!
Su Mo shook his head and gave up trying to figure out the connection.
The four of them then left to look for more horned demons.
In the Horned-demon Territory, both horned demons and Celestialspirit Sect's disciples were hunting each other.
A short while after Su Mo and the others left, two young men arrived.
Both of them seemed to be in their 20s. One was wearing a black shirt while the other wore a purple robe. Their cultivation was certainly powerful at Lv 7 Enlightenment Realm. The young man in black had even reached the Peak Lv 7 Enlightenment Realm.
"They just left!" The purple-robed young man spoke after seeing the torn limbs on the ground.
"Could we be chasing the wrong guy?" The young man in black asked.
"No way!" The purple-robed young man shook his head before taking out a transparent crystal ball.
The crystal ball was glowing with a five-colored radiance just like Su Mo's Vital Spirit.
"This is Su Mo's aura that was collected from Zheng Renjie's corpse. As long as we follow its lead, we can catch up to them!" The purple-robed young man said with a smile.
"Hehe! We can obtain Imperial Cultivation Methods of Lower Lv 6 as long as we kill them. This is such a good deal!" A greedy smile appeared on the man in black's face.
"However, we mustn't be careless! It's especially important that no other disciples discover us, or else we die without a burial place!" The purple-robed young man said in a deep voice.
"Relax! With our strength, we could finish the four of them in a few moves. No one will find out about this!" The young man in black said confidently.
The two then rapidly flew toward Su Mo and his companions.
