King of Assassins

Chapter 1238: Chapter 752: Rakshasa King_4

The Five Elements Ancestor fashioned a Five-Color Robe, probably intended to demonstrate his state of arduous cultivation. Unfortunately, when he wore it, it seemed colorful and laughably ridiculous.

Considering that the Five Elements Ancestor is a demon, this is not surprising.

Seeing the Huangyi monk, Gao Xuan couldn’t help but think of the Five Elements Ancestor.

He stood in front of the monk for a while, but the other seemed oblivious, neither speaking nor moving.

Gao Xuan had to ask, "Monk, what are you doing?"

Only then did the Huangyi monk open his eyes, in which black vortexes seemed to spin, making his gaze extremely peculiar.

The Huangyi monk looked Gao Xuan up and down, showing surprise on his face. He didn’t expect such a Qingfeng-like figure to appear in the Barbaric Land.

Gao Xuan possessed an extraordinary demeanor, with not a trace of demonic impurity on him. Surprisingly, he appeared to be a Human Race Cultivator.

But a cultivator who directly rushed to Five Elements Mountain was likely not a good person.

The Huangyi monk rudely stood up and said, "Poor monk Five Phases, who are you, and why intrude on Five Elements Mountain!"

By the end of his statement, he sounded quite severe.

Gao Xuan remained unmoved and asked, "A monk from the Ten Sufferings Sect?"

Five Phases frowned further, uncomfortable with Gao Xuan’s tone. Especially as he merrily mentioned the Ten Sufferings Sect, seemingly not taking their sect seriously at all.

Five Phases reprimanded with a low voice, "Insolent, the name of this sect is not for you to casually utter. The cultivators of the Barbaric Land indeed are coarse and impolite."

Gao Xuan asked again, "The Ten Sufferings Sect is far in Central Province, what are you doing here?"

Five Phases was furious, this person completely disregarded his words, asking questions only to suit himself.

Such a rude and impolite demon, no matter how noble the demeanor, should be knocked dead with a stick.

Five Phases developed a killing intent to slay the demon, but instead withdrew his anger. He said, "The master of this land is my master’s recorded disciple, and also my senior brother. Master sensed my senior brother’s danger from the void and sent me to visit him."

He paused and asked, "I answered your question, you should answer mine. Who are you, and why intrude on Five Elements Mountain?"

"That indeed is reasonable."

Gao Xuan nodded and said, "Your senior brother is dead, Five Elements Mountain is mine now. As they say, ignorance is not to blame. Since you didn’t know the master has changed, it’s forgivable. Now leave this place quickly."

Gao Xuan doesn’t particularly like others taking advantage of him, but he’s not one to shout for a fight or a kill right away.

Being a dignified Earth Immortal, he cannot be so barbaric and rude. Though the monk is inherently arrogant, boastful, and murderous.

"My senior brother is dead?"

Five Phases lifted the Rakshasa Demon-Slaying Staff with one hand, asking Gao Xuan seriously, "How did my senior brother die? Please explain, Fellow Daoist."

Gao Xuan replied casually, "The Five Elements Ancestor came to trouble me, and I killed him."

"What?!"

Although Five Phases had already suspected that Gao Xuan was connected to Five Elements Ancestor’s death, hearing Gao Xuan calmly admitting he was the murderer filled him with rage.

Five Phases’ face sank, "Five Elements was my senior brother and a disciple of the Ten Sufferings Sect. No matter his wrongs, it’s not for outsiders to judge."

"That is unreasonable. He came to kill me, and I killed him. It’s the natural order of things. Why hand it over to you, who do you think you are?"

Gao Xuan intended to reason with Five Phases and let him leave if sensible.

As for the Ten Sufferings Sect’s schemes, he had no interest in addressing them.

Central Province is too far from the Southern Barbarian Wilderness, and the Ten Sufferings Sect is a reputable sect. Without significant conflict, there’s no need to make enemies.

An Earth Immortal must care about their status, but if the opponent doesn’t, there’s no need to pretend.

Five Phases sneered, "Killed my senior brother, yet so arrogant. I can’t tolerate you, poor monk."

"Oh, what do you plan to do?" Gao Xuan was a bit curious.

"If you surrender, poor monk will take you to Ten Sufferings Temple for interrogation and sentencing. If you resist, poor monk can only use the Rakshasa Demon-Slaying Staff to absolve you right here."

"Haha..."

Gao Xuan chuckled, amused by the monk’s confidence. Did he really believe cultivating here for hundreds of years, mastering parts of the law power of Five Elements Mountain, allowed him to challenge Gao Xuan?

Let alone Five Phases, even Ten Sufferings themselves, Gao Xuan wouldn’t be afraid.

He calmly said, "So be it, I’ll help you a bit and send you to Paradise."

"You scourge, seeking death!"

Five Phases shouted loudly, swinging the staff down.

Five Phases was originally titled Rakshasa King, one of the top ten disciples under Ten Sufferings. His nature is like a fiery flame, the most murderous.

Encountering demons and ghosts, he usually kills them with a few words and staff swings. This time, Ten Sufferings sent him to Four Elements Mountain, having calculated Five Elements Ancestor’s death, to cultivate at Five Elements Mountain.

Located in the deep Southern Barbarian Wilderness, Five Elements Mountain is crawling with demons and ghosts. Preaching Seven Elements Sect and cleansing demons would be a great merit.

Moreover, Southern Barbarian Wilderness, though remote, is extremely rich in Spiritual Qi. There’s no reason to abandon such a land of spiritual treasure.

Before coming, Ten Sufferings advised Five Phases not to tangle with strong foes, simply reporting the Ten Sufferings Sect name would earn respect from the opponent.

Ten Sufferings knows Five Phases loves fighting, but this disciple is seasoned in battle, and with the Heart Light Escape Technique, he can always escape back even in an accident.

Others have their duties, and it’s impossible to send more people to Five Elements Mountain. Five Phases alone suffices.

Five Phases felt Gao Xuan was not a formidable foe, hence acting directly.

The Rakshasa Demon-Slaying Staff, naturally fierce and unyielding, has unknown demons and ghosts, accumulating endless killing intent. This killing intent in turn nurtured the Rakshasa King.

Rakshasa is originally a Buddhist Sect’s evil ghost, Rakshasa King is the king of evil ghosts.

Using Rakshasa to slay demons is using evil to control evil, using killing to stop killing.

As the Rakshasa Demon-Slaying Staff swept, the hidden Rakshasa King emerged, transforming into a giant ghost king roaring with power atop the long staff.

Behind Rakshasa King, evil ghosts transformed into a billowing dark cloud, directly engulfing Gao Xuan.

After hundreds of years cultivating at Five Elements Mountain, Five Phases refined two shares of the mountain’s Spiritual Qi. Nourished by these spiritual powers, the Rakshasa King commands an army of evil ghosts totaling hundreds of thousands.

Every evil ghost possesses the Power of the Great Demon, with the Rakshasa King’s might rivaling a Demon Emperor.

Five Phases’ Rakshasa Demon-Slaying Staff serves as both Martial Arts and Magic. The two can continuously transform, being extremely wondrous.

However, inciting the dark ghost army to battle slightly contradicts the identity of a high monk from the Buddhist Sect.

This is also a significant reason Ten Sufferings dispatched Five Phases here.

Since arriving at the Primordial Celestial Realm, Gao Xuan encountered human race cultivators for the first time. Jade Lotus Daoist, being weak, lacks reference value.

Five Phases is indeed a true Earth Immortal, with profound cultivation. Simply on cultivation level, he’s comparable to the Nine-headed Dragon King. His move transformations in magic and combined martial arts-magic are much superior to the Nine-headed Dragon King.

To put it simply, battling outside the Nine Dragon Sea, the Nine-headed Dragon King certainly loses to Five Phases. Even battling within the Nine Dragon Sea, it’s hard for the Nine-headed Dragon King to retain Five Phases.

Thus, Ten Sufferings’ prowess is evident, managing to cultivate disciples into Earth Immortal strength.

Gao Xuan analyzed his opponent’s situation, until the iron staff nearly reached his forehead, then he extended his left hand to grasp the Rakshasa Demon-Slaying Staff.

The Infinite Celestial Dragon Claw, fused with multiple Earth Immortal Laws, possesses immeasurable power. Gao Xuan effortlessly grasped the Rakshasa Demon-Slaying Staff, holding it firmly.

The roaring Rakshasa King and Rakshasa Evil Ghost vanished in an instant, scattered by the Endless Celestial Dragon Claw’s ultimate toxic and potent force, turning into black smoke and dispersing.

Only then did Five Phases realize the severity. This young Daoist, with divine radiance, was unexpectedly so powerful.

He regretted acting rashly, realizing he shouldn’t have directly turned hostile so quickly.

Five Phases wanted to leave but couldn’t bear to relinquish his ten-thousand-year cultivated Rakshasa Demon-Slaying Staff, the root tool for his Earth Immortal Dao.

In a moment of hesitation, the Rakshasa Demon-Slaying Staff was twisted into a braid by Gao Xuan.

The Rakshasa Demon-Slaying Staff is Five Phases’ life-root instrument, intricately connected with him. Severely damaged, Five Phases’ Divine Soul was deeply scarred.

His face turned red, Essence Blood within transforming into scarlet flames, manifesting a fiery Rakshasa King Dharma Aspect behind him.

Blood Flame Rakshasa King, summoned by Five Phases burning Divine Soul Essence Blood to extract Dharma Aspect, intricately connects with the obliterating and killing law power, the most malicious Divine Technique cultivated by Five Phases.

Blood Flame Rakshasa King, encountering means death.
