A miracle! With a single thought, all demons were annihilated; the Winter Wolf Army was petrified!

Lin Yuan came to a halt.

He stood before that light screen constructed of pure Sword Intent, his gaze calmly sweeping across the battlefield before him.

Behind him was light.

Before him was an endless tide of demons gushing out from the darkness.

The three Shadow Demon Lords hidden deep within the canyon seemed to have finally realized the terror of the human before them.

They no longer drove those cannon fodder forward to their deaths.

"Screee-ga-ga—!!!"

Three sharp, ear-piercing roars rang out simultaneously!

This time, it was no longer a command.

Instead, it was a signal that they were personally taking action, filled with tyranny and killing intent!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Atop the precipices on both sides of the canyon, three massive shadows, even deeper and more profound than the surrounding darkness, suddenly came to life!

They peeled away from the stone walls, twisting and converging in mid-air, transforming into three pitch-black giant claws that blotted out the sky!

Each giant claw was at least a hundred meters in size, entwined with dense dark energy capable of corroding everything!

They did not attack the dozen or so Winter Wolf members who were already paralyzed with Fear.

They had only one target!

And that was Lin Yuan!

Three giant claws, coming from three different directions with a terrifying momentum capable of crushing mountain peaks, clawed down ruthlessly toward Lin Yuan!

They intended to completely grind this human, who dared to intrude upon their territory and provoke their majesty, into dust!

Facing this world-destroying blow,

Ivan, the captain of the Winter Wolf Unit, saw his pupils contract to the limit!

He instinctively wanted to roar out, telling the young man to dodge quickly!

But he found his throat seemingly gripped tightly by an invisible hand, unable to make even a single sound!

Under the pressure of those three giant claws, the Power Armor he was so proud of seemed to have turned into fragile tin cans!

However,

At the center of the overwhelming pressure, Lin Yuan's expression remained unchanged.

He didn't even bother to lift his head.

He simply reached out his right hand.

And toward those three giant claws of death descending from the sky, he made a remote grasping motion.

"Noisy."

Two words, spoken with casual indifference.

In an instant,

With his palm as the center,

Billions of golden Sword Qi, thin as ox hairs, manifested out of thin air!

They were no longer a passive defensive light screen.

Instead, they transformed into a golden, silent, yet murderously intense... rainstorm!

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh—!!!"

The golden rainstorm soared into the sky!

It met the three pitch-black giant claws!

It met the Shadow Demons swarming all over the mountains and plains, still restless!

It met all the darkness within this canyon!

"Puchi! Puchi! Puchi! Puchi! Puchi!"

A dense sound of blades entering flesh that made one's scalp tingle echoed through the entire canyon!

The moment those indestructible giant claws composed of pure dark energy came into contact with the golden Sword Qi rainstorm, it was as if they had collided with billions of high-speed rotating drill bits!

They couldn't even hold out for a single second!

They were easily pierced, torn, cut, and pulverized!

Before that violent dark energy even had a chance to erupt, it was completely obliterated by the endless, sharp Sword Intent!

The three sky-blotting giant claws simply transformed into black motes of light scattered across the sky, silently, right there in mid-air!

And this was only the beginning!

After destroying the three giant claws, the golden Sword Qi rainstorm's momentum did not diminish!

In an unstoppable manner, they covered the entire canyon basin!

They covered every inch of shadow!

They covered every single Shadow Demon!

"Puchi, puchi, puchi, puchi, puchi—!!!"

Slaughter!

A silent, yet extremely tragic slaughter!

The Shadow Demons, who could easily merge into shadows and were a massive headache for the Winter Wolf Unit, were as fragile as bubbles in the sunlight before these golden Sword Qi infused with Lin Yuan's Origin Sword Intent!

Their ethereal bodies were easily pierced through!

Their energy cores were instantly shredded!

Their life imprints were completely obliterated!

There were no screams.

There was no struggling.

Thousands upon thousands of Shadow Demons were completely purified and evaporated within this golden rainstorm!

The scene was spectacular yet eerie.

Like a grand display of fireworks paid for with life.

In just a few breaths of time,

The previously dense, despair-inducing demon tide was cleared out!

In the entire canyon basin, besides the dozen or so stunned Winter Wolf members, not a single living Shadow Demon could be seen!

All that remained was a lingering scent of purified scorched air.

"..."

Ivan and his team members had completely lost the ability to think.

Each of them had their mouths wide open, staring blankly at the now-empty battlefield, their minds a complete void.

Gone... they're gone?

Thousands of Shadow Demons... just like that... gone?

Washed away by a golden rain?

Is... is this a fucking dream, or are they already dead and seeing visions of heaven?

And right at that moment,

Deep in the canyon, three streaks of black light fled frantically toward three different exits of the canyon at a speed more than ten times faster than before!

It was the three Shadow Demon Lords!

They were scared out of their wits!

They had never seen such terrifying power!

Exterminating an army of ten thousand with a single thought!

This was not an existence they could contend with!

This was a god!

A demon!

Flee!

They had to flee!

As long as even one could escape to bring news of this terrifying human back to the depths of the Void Realm, it would be a victory!

However,

Would Lin Yuan give them the chance?

"Want to leave?"

The corners of Lin Yuan's mouth curled into a cold arc.

He raised his eyes and looked at the three streaks of black light fleeing for their lives.

He flicked his fingers three times in succession.

"Swoosh!"

"Swoosh!"

"Swoosh!"

Three golden sword lights, more condensed and brilliant than before, flashed and vanished.

They seemed to ignore the barriers of space, arriving first despite being launched later!

Puchi!

The first streak of black light, at the moment it was about to rush out of the canyon, was accurately pierced through the middle by a golden sword light, its entire body exploding and turning into nothingness!

Puchi!

The second streak of black light tried to merge into the shadows of the mountain wall, but that golden sword light pierced through both it and that small section of the mountain wall, then annihilated them!

Puchi!

The third streak of black light let out an unwilling shriek, its body instantly decomposing into over a hundred small Clones that scattered in all directions.

But that golden sword light seemed as if it had eyes; it took a turn in mid-air, instantly catching up to the main body and piercing right through!

All the Clones turned into black smoke at the same time and dissipated without a trace.

The three Lord-level Shadow Demons,

Just like that, had both their forms and spirits extinguished!

Only after doing all this did Lin Yuan slowly withdraw his hand.

The sky full of golden Sword Qi also dissipated along with it.

The entire Wailing Canyon returned to a deathly silence.

Even the black mist that never dispersed seemed to have thinned out quite a bit because of that golden rainstorm just now.

Lin Yuan turned around and walked toward the dozen or so Winter Wolf members who were still in a state of petrification.

Step by step, he walked in front of them.

Then, he stopped.

Ivan looked up, gazing at the god-like man before him.

His heavy set of Power Armor seemed so small and ridiculous at this moment.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something.

Gratitude?

Or... an inquiry?

But his throat was incredibly dry, and he couldn't squeeze out a single word.

He simply looked at Lin Yuan, his only remaining eye filled with shock, awe, and... a trace of Fear stemming from the depths of his Soul.
