136: Sword Slaying a Sixth-Order Great Demon

With a flip of his palm, a crimson Medicinal Pill, radiating violent energy fluctuations, appeared in his hand—the origin breaking pill!

He swallowed it without a moment's hesitation!

Boom!

A tyrannical aura instantly erupted from within Yao Delong's body!

His original Middle Golden Core Stage cultivation, stimulated by the origin breaking pill, skyrocketed like a rocket, breaking through the threshold of the Late Golden Core Stage in the blink of an eye!

Although his aura was somewhat unstable, the surging sense of power was undeniably real!

At the same time, Yao Delong flicked his finger!

A faint flame, nearly transparent and seemingly non-existent in reality, difficult to even capture with Divine Sense, shot out silently, aimed directly at the deepest, still bleeding wound on the Purple Scaled Poison Lizard King!

It was the Void Flame Blazing Fire!

The Purple Scaled Poison Lizard King, in its rage, had its demon soul filled with the desire to kill, its intelligence greatly diminished. Coupled with the near-perfect concealment characteristics of the Void Flame Blazing Fire, it did not notice at all!

Sizzle—!

Like a ghost, the Void Flame Blazing Fire instantly submerged into that hideous wound!

The next moment!

"Roar—!!!"

The Purple Scaled Poison Lizard King suddenly let out a wail even more painful and terrified than when its eyes were stabbed blind!

Its massive body convulsed violently!

Inside its wound, the void-like state instantly transformed into dark red flames, erupting violently without warning!

That flame was no ordinary fire; it carried a strange "Void" characteristic, ignoring its tough scales and muscles. Like maggots on bone, it crazily burned and eroded its Demonic Power Origin and fleshly vitality!

"Now is the time!"

A sharp light exploded in Yao Delong's eyes! The golden crow setting sun sword in his hand erupted with unprecedented, dazzling golden light!

A Pure Yang Sword Intent, extremely Yang and rigid, as if it could burn the eight wastelands and purify all things, soared into the sky, illuminating half the night sky as if it were day!

"Pure Yang Sword Art—Heaven-Burning Sun Split!"

A sharp shout, like the decree of a Heavenly God!

Yao Delong gripped the sword with both hands and slashed down fiercely at the Purple Scaled Poison Lizard King, whose movements were sluggish due to extreme pain and whose aura had instantly withered!

Boom—!!!

A terrifying golden sword light, magnificent as a falling great sun, tore through the darkness. With a terrifying high temperature capable of burning everything and an invincible sharp will, it instantly engulfed the massive body of the Purple Scaled Poison Lizard King!

The earth trembled violently!

A terrifying giant crater, dozens of zhang deep and nearly a hundred zhang in diameter, appeared abruptly accompanied by a deafening explosion!

Dust mixed with scorching heat waves rose into the sky!

When the blinding golden light and dust dissipated slightly, at the bottom of the giant crater, the massive body of the Purple Scaled Poison Lizard King lay miserably, with a charred sword mark on its back that had almost split it in two, shocking to behold!

The scales and flesh at the edges of the wound were completely carbonized, emitting a burnt smell!

The terrifying Pure Yang power and the Void Flame Blazing Fire rampaged within its body, crazily destroying its vitality!

"Pfft!"

Li Chen seized this rare opportunity. Enduring the discomfort of the blinding golden light, a cyan blade aura, condensing all his strength, pierced like a venomous snake into the mouth of the Purple Scaled Poison Lizard King—which was wide open in pain—piercing straight into its brain!

"Wu..."

The Purple Scaled Poison Lizard King let out a desperate wail. Its violent aura dissipated rapidly like a deflated ball. Its remaining right eye was filled with extreme fear of Yao Delong's terrifying sword light and colorless strange fire!

Escape!

This thought instantly occupied its dying demon soul! This human was too terrifying!

That strange teleportation, the trapping sword formation, the strange fire that burned away Demonic Power, the Pure Yang Sword Intent... every move pointed straight at its vital points, forming a fatal suppression against it!

However, just as it struggled to turn its head, wanting to flee this land of death—Yao Delong's figure, like a grim reaper claiming a life, appeared again as if teleporting directly above its huge head!

The golden crow setting sun sword erupted with scorching Pure Yang golden light once again!

"It ends here."

As the cold voice fell, another Heaven-Burning Sun Split slashed down with a roar!

Boom—!!!

A more violent golden sword light, descended like divine punishment!

Bang!!!

The Purple Scaled Poison Lizard King's massive head, along with a small part of its neck, exploded like a fragile watermelon under the magnificent sword light!

Flesh and blood flew everywhere, demon bones were shattered into pieces!

The headless massive body convulsed violently a few times, then crashed into the giant crater, completely silent!

The Sixth-Order Great Yao Beast, the Purple Scaled Poison Lizard King, had fallen!

The entire battlefield instantly fell into a dead silence!

Time seemed to have frozen. All the humans and Yao Beasts currently fighting froze in place.

The Cultivators forgot to wield their Magic Treasures, and the Yao Beasts forgot to bite and pounce.

Everyone's eyes were wide open, mouths hanging open unconsciously, staring fixedly at the headless Great Yao Beast corpse in the giant crater, and at the edge of the crater, the figure in gray clothes holding a dark gold longsword, whose golden light was slowly receding and whose aura had fallen back to the "Late Foundation Establishment Stage."

The wind seemed to have stopped blowing, leaving only the crackling sound of the bonfire, and... the clearly audible, difficult swallowing sounds of countless people.

Gulp... gulp...

In the dead silence of the night, these sounds seemed exceptionally harsh.

It was unknown which Yao Beast was the first to react from this extreme fear, letting out a whimper that was distorted with terror.

"Wu-ao—!"

This whimper was like lighting a fuse!

Boom!

The herd that had been besieging them instantly exploded into chaos! Fear spread like a plague!

Even a Sixth-Order Great Yao Beast was slaughtered by that human as if he were chopping melons and vegetables; what were they, these low-level Yao Beasts!?

Escape! Flee quickly!!

Driven by instinct, they no longer cared about the "blood food" in front of them, fleeing crazily towards the depths of the mountain forest like a receding tide!

Leaving behind only the messy corpses of Yao Beasts all over the ground and the shocked, statue-like members of the caravan.

At the edge of the giant crater, the smoke and dust had not yet completely dissipated, and the air was filled with a strong burnt smell and the scent of blood.

Xin Yuelan, through her mask, stared blankly at that figure holding the dark gold longsword, whose aura had already receded back to the "Late Foundation Establishment Stage," her heart in turmoil.

"Yao Delong..."

Her red lips under the mask moved unconsciously, "Just breaking through from the Early Golden Core Stage to the Middle Stage, how could his strength skyrocket to this extent?

That teleportation, that sword formation, that Pure Yang Sword Art, that strange fire... and that terrifying explosive power that finally slew the Yao King."

As the Saintess of the Heavenly Demon Sect, she had seen countless Prodigies of the Demonic Path, and even the methods of Sect Elders, but someone like Yao Delong, who could so cleanly and efficiently slay a rampaging Sixth-Order Great Yao Beast while only in the Middle Golden Core Stage, was simply unheard of!

'This growth speed... is too terrifying! I must find a way to send this news back to the Sect! If this child is not eliminated, he will surely become a major threat to my Heavenly Demon Sect in the future!'
