292: Chapter 292: The Entire Demon Race Perishes
In the Stone Chamber.
The river of Law flowed slowly, and the purple-gold light made everyone's face flicker between light and shadow.
Xiao Ran stood in the center of the river, hands behind his back, his black robes fluttering.
His gaze was calm as water, yet carried an unquestionable majesty.
The Nine-Headed Snake Emperor's massive carcass stood behind him, five heads hanging low, its vertical pupils hollow, like a soulless puppet.
Yet the aura it emitted was still at the Peak of the Integration Stage.
Everyone looked at Xiao Ran before them, feeling an inexplicable heaviness.
Because they had lived for thousands of years and had never seen such a crazy young man.
Seizing the law seed, controlling the Nine-Headed Snake Emperor, breaking through to the Integration Stage, and killing the Snake Emperor in one move.
All these deeds showed that this person was even more ruthless than Li Qinglian back in the day.
"Xiao Ran, do you really intend to exterminate us all?"
Supreme Elder Jian Cangqiong's voice was hoarse.
Xiao Ran looked at him: "It is not that I want to exterminate you all, but that this world is defined by the Law of the jungle."
"You have stood at the top of the food chain for too long and have forgotten that there are still people below."
Upon hearing this, Lion Cangqiong struggled to stand up, clenching his right claw into a fist, with golden Demonic Qi flickering weakly on it.
"Human brat, I have lived for thousands of years; what kind of storms have I not seen? Even if I die today, I will bite a piece of flesh off you!"
Feng Tian also stood up, supporting her body with her right wing.
"The Five-Colored Phoenix Clan never surrenders."
In the Sparrow Emperor's blood-red eyes, a vortex slowly began to circulate again.
"The Heaven-Swallowing Sparrow Clan also never surrenders. You can kill me, but you cannot make me submit."
The Snake Emperor was already dead.
His corpse still lay on the ground, his five heads twisted off, and black blood was still flowing.
His vertical pupils were still open; he died with grievances.
Xiao Ran looked at them and smiled coldly.
"Fine, then come."
He raised his hand, and the law seed flew out from his palm, hovering above his head.
The purple-gold light exploded, turning into a pillar of light that enveloped the entire Stone Chamber.
The space within the Stone Chamber began to distort, the ground cracked, the stone walls collapsed, and gravel from the dome fell like raindrops.
The river of Law surged from all directions, surrounding the four Yao Race big shots.
"Law: Spatial Lock."
Xiao Ran said softly.
Lion Cangqiong instantly felt his body bound by an invisible force.
His movements became sluggish, and even raising a claw was difficult.
His expression changed drastically, his vertical pupils filled with horror.
"This is... the Law of Space? You, someone who just broke through to the Integration Stage, how can you—"
Xiao Ran said indifferently: "The law seed of the Mahayana Stage does not just increase cultivation; it can also manipulate space, time, and Karma."
"Although I can only use a fraction of its power right now, it is enough to deal with you."
Lion Cangqiong gritted his teeth, desperately circulating his Demonic Qi, trying to break free from the Spatial Lock.
But his Demonic Qi was nearly exhausted, and he could not break free at all.
The golden Demonic Qi flickered a few times on his body and then extinguished.
Feng Tian also tried to break free, but it was equally ineffective.
Her amber eyes were filled with despair.
"Xiao Ran, you won, but if you kill us, the Yao Race will not let you go."
"The six great Yao clans have come out in full force; can you stop them all by yourself?"
Xiao Ran looked at her, finding it somewhat laughable.
"The Yao Race? Once you are dead, who else in the Yao Race can avenge you?"
"The six great Yao clans, what waves can they still make?"
Feng Tian fell silent.
She knew that what Xiao Ran said was the truth; the Old Ancestors of the six great Yao clans had all fallen here.
The Yao Race would be unable to recover its Origin Qi for at least a thousand years.
A thousand years was enough for Xiao Ran to take the entire Far North Land into his pocket.
Lion Cangqiong roared, using his last bit of strength to pounce toward Xiao Ran.
"I will fight you to the death!"
Xiao Ran did not move.
The Nine-Headed Snake Emperor behind him moved.
Five heads opened their giant maws simultaneously, spewing five dark red beams of light.
The beams shot toward Lion Cangqiong with astonishing speed.
Lion Cangqiong could not dodge in time and was struck in the chest by one of the beams.
His chest was pierced through, and golden blood gushed out.
Then his body slid down, collapsing to the ground, his eyes still open, his vertical pupils filled with unwillingness.
"The Golden Lion Clan... will not let you go..."
Lion Cangqiong's voice was weak, like wind blowing over withered leaves.
Xiao Ran walked up to him, looking down at him: "Then let them come."
He struck down with his palm.
Lion Cangqiong's head shattered, and golden blood splattered all over the ground.
The Old Ancestor of the Golden Lion Clan, a powerful being at the Peak of the Integration Stage.
Fell.
Feng Tian looked at Lion Cangqiong's corpse, her amber eyes filled with sorrow.
She had fought with Lion Cangqiong for thousands of years; they were enemies, but also old friends.
Now he was dead, and she was about to die too.
Sure enough, the next second, Xiao Ran appeared before her.
He struck down with his palm; Feng Tian's head shattered, and five-colored blood splattered all over the ground.
The Old Ancestor of the Five-Colored Phoenix Clan, a powerful being at the Peak of the Integration Stage.
Fell.
The Sparrow Emperor looked at Feng Tian's corpse, his eyes filled with despair.
"Xiao Ran, don't think you will have it easy either!"
As soon as he finished speaking.
He opened his giant beak, the Heaven-Swallowing Vortex rotating, sucking in all the surrounding spiritual power, gravel, and air.
Then his body suddenly expanded, like an inflated ball.
He was going to self-destruct.
Xiao Ran narrowed his eyes and struck out with his palm.
The Guixu Vortex rotated in his palm, turning into a huge black hole that swallowed the Sparrow Emperor.
"Bang—!"
The Sparrow Emperor's body exploded inside the black hole, but the power of the explosion was swallowed by the black hole and did not affect the outside.
The Sparrow Emperor was dead, leaving not even a trace behind.
Thus.
In the Stone Chamber, the corpses of the Yao Race lay scattered about.
Black, golden, and five-colored blood mixed together, flowing all over the ground.
Xiao Ran stood in the pool of blood, like a Demon God.
He turned around and looked at the Human Race.
Supreme Elder Jian Cangqiong, City Lord Li Qingge, Old City Lord Li Cang, Family Head Zhao Tiangang... they were all watching him, their gazes varied.
Supreme Elder Jian Cangqiong's gaze was complex, filled with anger, helplessness, and sorrow.
City Lord Li Qingge's gaze was terrified, as if he had seen a devil.
"It is your turn." Xiao Ran said.
Supreme Elder Jian Cangqiong's hand holding the broken sword tightened, his knuckles turning white.
His voice was hoarse, carrying uncontrollable anger.
"Xiao Ran, you want to kill us? We are the Human Race, we are on the same side!"
"If you kill us, who will guard the Sword Qi Great Wall? Who will block the Yao Race of the Northern Territory?"
Xiao Ran shook his head with a smile.
"Supreme Elder Jian Cangqiong, have you gone senile?"
"I am the Demon Son of the Eternal Night Demon Sect, and you are the Supreme Elder of the Sword Sect; we have never been on the same side."
Since ancient times, the Righteous Path and the Demonic path have been incompatible, fighting for thousands of years.
Having this opportunity, Xiao Ran would naturally not let it go.
"Even if you are from the Demon Sect, you are still of the Human Race."
"If you kill us, the Righteous Path will all treat you as an enemy; can you confront the entire Northern Territory by yourself?"
Xiao Ran did not care at all.
"Why not? I have the law seed, I have the carcass of the Nine-Headed Snake Emperor, and I have control over the entire ruin."
"Whoever does not submit, I will kill; I will kill until they submit."
Supreme Elder Jian Cangqiong had nothing to say.
Xiao Ran stopped wasting words, took a step, and appeared before Family Head Zhao Tiangang first.
Family Head Zhao Tiangang lay on the ground, unconscious, his cultivation having dropped from the Peak of the Integration Stage to the Early Stage of the Void Refining.
His hair was completely white, the wrinkles on his skin deeper, looking like a piece of withered wood.
He was the Old Ancestor of the Zhao family, Zhao Wudi's grandfather.
The Zhao family ran rampant at the Sword Qi Great Wall, and Zhao Wudi had opposed Xiao Ran at every turn in the ruin.
Xiao Ran would not let him off.
He struck down with his palm.
Family Head Zhao Tiangang's body shattered, turning into blood mist.
The Old Ancestor of the Zhao family, a powerful being at the Peak of the Integration Stage.
Fell.
Now, only Supreme Elder Jian Cangqiong, City Lord Li Qingge, and the unconscious Old City Lord Li Cang remained.
