Harsfin swept his gaze over the four of them and said, "You don’t need to be so tense, I’m not going to run. Ah, to be honest, I’m quite fed up with the Demon Realm and would rather explore the human world. So, how about we negotiate so terms?"
Ah Dai froze, and replied, "Terms? What terms?"
Harsfin proposed, "These terms are very beneficial for you. As long as you can defeat in a one-on-one duel, I will join the human camp and help you deal with the Bone Dragon, Nazgul, and Harbank. How does that sound? Of course, after this is over, you need to take along and show the human world. I promise to refrain from causing random slaughter."
Ah Dai was pleased with the answer and glanced at the other three Sword Saints, asking, "How can I believe that you’re telling the truth?"
Harsfin solemnly replied, "That’s easy. I can swear an oath! I, Harsfin the Terrifying Demon, hereby swear that if you, boy, can indeed beat , I will let you command . Is that good enough?"
Yun Ying voiced with a serious tone, "And what if you break your oath?"
Harsfin replied, "If I break the oath, may I forever be denied ascension."
Ah Dai said, "Alright, I accept your challenge. Let’s see just how powerful a demon like you is." The Suru Sword in his hand spun around and flew out, targeting Harsfin using mind-controlled sword techniques. Although the other three Sword Saints still had so doubts about Harsfin’s sincerity, Ah Dai had already accepted the challenge. As martial artists, they always valued their oaths more than their lives. Urging their True Qi, they moved aside to watch the duel between Ah Dai and Harsfin.
Upon facing the golden sword radiance of the Suru Sword, Harsfin’s face hardened. His massive wings began to flutter rapidly as large amounts of dark green energy gathered in front of him, forming a vortex that surged towards the Suru Sword. The formidable power of the Solid Energy Sword was imnse. Once the Suru Sword plunged into the vortex, there was a violent friction. Harsfin continuously beat his massive wings, gathering energy to resist the Suru Sword while Ah Dai continually infused his vibrant fighting spirit into the Suru Sword. Both combatants were locked in a stalemate in mid-air, neither able to inflict any damage upon the other.
A flash of brilliance in Ah Dai’s eyes signalled an abrupt dash of a phantom-like figure towards Harsfin—the particular skill, Clone, from Goris’s Wish. With Ah Dai’s ascendant cultivation, the Clone could now use the sixth energy level of Life Creation. A resplendent silver light surged and a trendous Energy Sword slashed down towards Harsfin from above.
Harsfin’s eyes flashed surprise as he let out a loud roar, his wings abruptly swept upwards to shield his head. With a splattering noise, his dark green iron feathers scattered. Since he was fighting against the Suru Sword, Harsfin was unable to utilize his ghostly powers and consequently took the full brunt of Ah Dai’s Clone’s slash.
Harsfin, now injured, was furious. He forcefully spat out a mouthful of dark green blood, and the vortex in front of him suddenly expanded, repelling both the Suru Sword and Ah Dai’s Clone. The Clone, carrying a silver glow, charged at Harsfin once again, while Ah Dai withdrew the Suru Sword. A golden blaze flared around his body, making the Suru Sword in his hand gradually shrink. It was not because Ah Dai was retracting his energy, but because he was compressing the Suru Sword. The Solid Energy Sword’s power exponentially increased under compression, causing the surrounding space to distort violently.
Although Harsfin was injured, he was, after all, a demon from the Demon Realm. Dark green energy coalesced into a Long Spear as he rose to et the charging Clone. As Ah Dai himself didn’t have many techniques, the sa applied to his Clone. Without any fancy moves, the Clone and Harsfin clashed violently. Amid the deafening explosion, a trendous shockwave repelled Ah Dai and the other three Sword Saints over a hundred ters away. Ah Dai’s Clone had disappeared, and Harsfin was gasping for breath in a rather dishevelled state. Although he had eradicated Ah Dai’s Clone, it drained a significant portion of his Evil Power.
Just as Harsfin was trying to recover, an extraordinarily terrifying energy suddenly surged from all directions. He was shocked to find that he could not move. The horrifying energy was compressing his body from all sides. The most frightening part was the imnsely lethal energy coming from directly ahead of him.
Forty ters in front of Harsfin, Ah Dai coldly stared at him. The air around Ah Dai was constantly distorting. In his hand was a large, dark bow with a sword acting as the bowstring – the Suru Sword, the compressed Suru Sword. After being compressed, the Suru Sword’s color had changed into a rainbow hue, whose energy flux, even with Harsfin’s cultivation, threatened imminent death. Under the pressure of this trendous energy, he could neither transform into a ghost nor dodge. He could only stare fearfully at the bow and sword in Ah Dai’s hand. Ah Dai’s spirit latched on Harsfin firmly. With his current cultivation, there was no need for aiming; all it required was his spirit guiding the Suru Sword on the Dark Iron Bow to accurately shoot into Harsfin’s Body. After several brief minutes of an intense duel, Ah Dai exerted all his powers, eventually gaining absolute advantage over Harsfin.
