Chapter 462: Chapter 241: The Arrival of the Demon Lair

Shu Du Falls_3

“Firstly, the Demon Extermination Guard has divided the defense area for the Xuandan Sect. If a Heavenly Demon appears, they must send people to kill the Heavenly Demon.”

“Secondly, they regularly organize cultivators of our Sect, or cooperate with the Demon Extermination Guard and other sects, mobilizing Golden Core cultivators and above, to infiltrate the Demon Cave, kill the Heavenly Demon, destroy the Heavenly Demon Array and suppress the Demon Cave.”

Zhuge Wu You summoned thirty Foundation Establishment Elders to him and began assigning tasks.

Being summoned to exterminate the Demon’s Cave this time is a task imposed by the Daqian Immortal Country, which must be completed. It is inescapable. If accomplished, there are rewards. If evaded, and accounts settled in the autumn, the consequence would certainly be the extermination of the Sect. During the arrival of a Demon’s Cave hundreds of years ago, a Nascent Soul Sect defied the summons. Later, the Demon Extermination Guard of the time broke through the Mountain Gate, and even the True Monarch of the Sect was beheaded on the spot.

This is a bloody history. It is also a consensus among all sects in the Yu Heng World that have Spirit Transformation Experts. Even the three major sects and Sacred Lands must comply. Otherwise, once the Demon’s Cave expands to a certain limit, it will be impossible to eradicate completely. One day, this world will be occupied by Heavenly Demons, and all cultivators will become feeding grounds for Heavenly Demons.

There are precedents for this in the Immortal Cultivating Worlds.

Han Yi stood behind Zhuge Wu You, looking at the thirty elders, his eyes flickering, his heart heavy.

Speaking of which.

Back when he first crossed over four or five years ago, a Demon’s Cave event occurred. To avoid being conscripted, Han Yi had spent a lot of money, thirty medium-grade Spirit Stones, to bribe the master of Little Lingxu Peak, finally avoiding the expedition.

The bribery incident was the trigger for many things that followed, such as being unable to join the Inner Peak early, being targeted by Fu Xuanxu, and so on.

However, he did not regret that bribe. Instead, he was grateful.

The death rate of that expedition exceeded half. At that time, Han Yi was just in the Middle Stage of Qi cultivation. Even though he had the Panel and his skills weren’t bad, if he encountered a Late Stage of Qi Cultivating little Heavenly Demon, it would basically be a dead end.

Han Yi watched the thirty Foundation Establishment Elders who were discussing. He felt heavy in his heart. How many of these thirty people could survive? Half?

A figure noticed Han Yi’s gaze, looked over, and nodded at Han Yi. Han Yi responded with a nod.

This figure carried a Bloody Longsword on his back. It was He Fengdi.

Today s He Fengdi was already a Foundation Establishment Middle Level Cultivator. Moreover, he was not weak among those at this level. This time, he volunteered. Volunteering along with him were Gu Yu, who was in the Foundation Building Early Stage, Lu Li who was in the Foundation Building Late Stage, and so on.

These people were not strangers to Han Yi.

A moment later.

Zhuge Wu You finished his arrangements, and the Elders dispersed. They began to deploy defenses at the edge of the Seventh Immortal Ring, which had been given to the Xuandan Sect for defense.

The area where the Immortal Boat landed was originally a marketplace. However, at this moment, whether it was cultivators or mortals, all had evacuated from this once bustling marketplace.

A moment later.

Han Yi’s eyes flashed. He saw Zhou Su leading two other Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the Eighth Immortal Ring. From a distance, Zhou Su and the two Elders saluted Han Yi, and Han Yi nodded in return.

Within three hours.

In this area, more than thirty elders brought four hundred Inner Sect disciples and one thousand Outer Sect disciples to complete various arrangements. They laid continuous thunder-property formations, set up Spiritual Talisman traps, and completed arrangements for the battle formation, etc.

Han Yi did not participate in the layout. Among the cultivators who came this time, only a few elders knew about Han Yi’s shocking combat power. The Inner and Outer Sect disciples only knew that there was such a Supreme Elder. They didn’t understand much about this seldom-present Supreme Elder. Occasionally, when their gaze fell on him, it was with respect.

Three days later.

The Demon Energy rolled, and a team of Heavenly Demons crossed the barrier of the Demon’s Cave and appeared in the area guarded by the Xuandan Sect. Without further ado, the battle became instantly fierce.

“Kill!”

Zhuge Wu You uttered lightly. An golden Pill Furnace instantly appeared, on which was engraved a golden divine dragon. The divine aura was naturally formed, exuding inherent majesty.

Jade Clear Panlong Furnace.

This was a magical treasure belonging to Zhuge Wu You, and also, a top-tier magical treasure at that.

Compared to the Sect’s treasure that was taken by Yuan Shun and had been elevated to the Spirit Treasure level, this Pill Furnace fell short. Nevertheless, it was still one of the most powerful magical treasures within the Xuandan Sect.

The Jade Clear Coil Dragon Furnace was tilted, letting the Jade Clear Divine Fire flow, focusing on the Heavenly Demons that appeared. To obliterate the Heavenly Demons, their true bodies must first be grinded down, then their divine souls must be eliminated with Soul Skills or spiritual talismans targeted at divine souls. This was the conventional method.

The Heavenly Demon squad that had just appeared only had over seven hundred members. Among them, over twenty emitted the aura of large Heavenly Demons while three of them emitted the aura of Demon Kings. The rest were all lower level Heavenly Demons.

The Jade Clear Divine Fire, which had just gained a hint of spirituality, flowed into the void towards the three Heavenly Demons with the aura of Demon Kings. However, one of them waved its hand gently, causing a rush of demon energy that blocked the divine fire. It then snarled and charged towards Zhuge Wu You.

In its eyes, among all these cultivators, only Zhuge Wu You was worth anv effort.

Heavenly Demons were extremely fast. They took advantage of the cultivators’ bodies and possessed the True Bodies of Heavenly Demons, giving them a significant advantage in this aspect.

However.

Just as it started to move, a flash of golden light suddenly came into its view. With its speed, it had just enough time to react and slightly shift its body to the side, allowing the golden light to swiftly pass by and strike the other two Heavenly Demons following closely behind it.

Two heads, full of demonic energy, were sent flying into the air.

However.

This Heavenly Demon King simply gave a cold laugh. The destruction of their true bodies didn’t concern him since there were two human cultivators present, sufficient vessels for their possession. They could just…

Something wasn’t right. The Heavenly Demon King abruptly widened its tiger-like eyes when it realized that along with the flash of the golden light, the demon aura of the two comrades had entirely disappeared on the spot. ’ What happened?

It felt its body tightened. The next moment, its vision started to roll rapidly. It noticed a hand placed on its head and body as its vision flipped.

You’re seeking death.

In the Heavenly Demon’s belief, this was utterly suicidal. Once it fled from its own body, it was well able to launch a direct invasion into the body of another, exterminating their divine soul and taking complete control of their body.

However.

As soon as that thought rose, a force of catastrophe rushed into its true body immediately afterwards, thoroughly destroying the Heavenly Demon’s true body it was so proud of. Furthermore, there was something more peculiar than a Heavenly Demon that briefly appeared.

For a Heavenly Demon, death was sans the intense pain. Its consciousness darkened in the ensuing moment, totally plunged into oblivion.

Meanwhile, in the outer world.

A moment ago, when Zhuge Wu You swung the Jade Clear Coil Dragon Furnace and the Jade Clear Divine Fire poured down.

Han Yi had swiped his fingers side by side. Two sword tools leapt up behind him: a golden Traceless Sword, which he had obtained from Tuoba Tu, and a White Longsword that emitted an extreme cold aura, the Heavenly Cold Sword.

Both of these long swords were mid-tier magical treasures, each very suitable for Han Yi to use.

First came the Traceless Sword that was avoided by the Heavenly Demon King at the front; however, it wielded sideways and instantly slaughtered two Heavenly Demon Kings. Following that, the Heavenly Cold Sword dealt the killing blow to the third Heavenly Demon King.

However.

Han Yi had applied the Soul Cutting Secret Skill on the Traceless Sword only and not the Heavenly Cold Sword. When the Traceless Sword killed the Heavenly Demon’s true body, it directly destroyed its original Heavenly Demon body.

As for the third Heavenly Demon King (the one that led the charge and was the strongest among the three), Han Yi neither used the Soul Cutting Secret Skill to kill nor did he use the Soul-searching Secret Skill.

He intended to probe and understand the actual situation in this demonic cave, in order to prepare for what lies ahead..
