“Yuhan, what… what is this?” At this moment, Xia Youtian was completely stunned by the sight before him.
“This is the head of an ancient great demon. Even after ten thousand years, it remains uncorrupted,” He Yuhan said calmly, without the slightest trace of astonishment, as if this were an everyday occurrence.
Following behind, the disciples who had been gathering harvest were also shocked to the core by this enormous head.
Even though a large part of the head was buried deep underground, the exposed half alone was enough to send chills down their spines.
Especially that exposed purple eye—it was particularly eerie.
“Yuhan, let’s go. I feel a bit unwell,” Xia Youtian slightly lowered his head, afraid to meet the gaze of that eye. Just one glance made one feel as if plunged into icy coldness.
“Senior apprentice sister, maybe we should leave. We’ve already gained so much,” said one disciple who was clinging to others.
He Yuhan ignored these disciples and turned to Xia Youtian. “Xia Gege, believe me, this is very important for you.”
“This ancient great demon was of royal blood. Although they’ve long been lost to the tides of time, this demon’s head has truly been preserved intact. Its divine demon bloodline will help you become the supreme being, and this world will need your protection,” He Yuhan explained.
“Yuhan, I don’t know what you’re talking about, but let’s go. This place feels really oppressive,” Xia Youtian stood beside the head, his face pale.
The aura here made him extremely uncomfortable, and the other apprentices felt the same. Yet, strangely, Yuhan showed no signs of discomfort at all.
He Yuhan shook her head, then placed one hand on the ageless demon head, closed her eyes slightly, and immediately a glow emanated from her palm.
Mysteriously, a force pierced through layers of void and descended upon He Yuhan.
“Condense!”
In an instant, a drop of blood, purple mixed with black, floated above He Yuhan’s palm.
“Xia Gege, look. This is the divine demon’s essence blood. Once consumed, it will grant you the divine demon bloodline,” He Yuhan said to Xia Youtian.
“This…” Xia Youtian looked at the essence blood floating above her palm and his expression changed.
Inside that drop of essence blood lay a violent will.
Looking at the blood, He Yuhan’s lips curled slightly into a smile. With a flick of her finger, the black impurities covering the blood suddenly separated and, like living things, attached themselves to the disciples before gradually merging into them.
The negative emotions from the ancient demon were being cleansed by He Yuhan. In an instant, He Yuhan appeared before Xia Youtian and knocked him unconscious.
“Senior apprentice sister, what are you doing?” The disciples, seeing their senior sister knock out their senior apprentice brother, asked in confusion.
“Killing you in front of him would definitely cause unnecessary misunderstandings,” He Yuhan said calmly.
“Senior apprentice sister, what do you mean?” Upon hearing this, the disciples’ faces changed dramatically. But in an instant, they felt as if something inside them was trying to break free from their bodies. They immediately collapsed to the ground, writhing in agony.
“The ancient great demon has fought countless battles and committed endless slaughter. Its accumulated negative emotions are just too much. Bringing you all in here was to allow these negative emotions to find new hosts,” He Yuhan said indifferently.
“Senior apprentice sister, you…” The disciples couldn’t believe what was happening before their eyes.
“Don’t blame me. I never forced any of you to follow me. This is all destined by heaven,” He Yuhan said, then flicked her finger, sending the drop of demon essence blood into Xia Youtian’s body.
“Ah… Senior apprentice sister, you…”
The disciples’ bodies suddenly changed. A mass of black mist scattered outward, and from each disciple’s body, black thorns pierced out.
“It’s time to send you off. If this continues, you’ll only become a disaster to the world,” He Yuhan muttered. With a wave of her hand, she instantly slaughtered all the demon-possessed disciples.
“Boom…”
At that moment, a tremendous sound came from the earth, and He Yuhan’s expression turned serious.
“Dead yet not decaying, you’ve actually managed to cultivate anew. Ancient great demon, you truly deserve your title. Step by step, you laid this trap, even deceiving me,” He Yuhan stared at the exposed half of the demon’s head. The purple eye in the half-exposed skull suddenly radiated a strange, eerie light.
“But ten thousand years have already passed. Since you’ve perished, you should remain buried and not dare to rise again.” He Yuhan’s expression turned cold, and her palms erupted with a burst of colorful light, attempting to completely seal the ancient demon.
Just then, the purple eye suddenly emitted a beam of light, completely shattering the colorful glow.
He Yuhan staggered backward, disbelief written across her face. “How is this possible?”
“You’re barely holding on yourself, yet you dare to seal this emperor? A dreamer’s fantasy,” a thunderous voice echoed through the void. The “Ancient Demon Domain” trembled violently, the earth collapsed, and surrounding structures crumbled.
At this moment, He Yuhan hesitated. Finally, she grabbed Xia Youtian, tore through the void, and completely fled this place.
The ancient demon’s head, buried deep underground, continuously extended outward. In an instant, a massive head loomed over heaven and earth.
“Roar…”
The ancient demon roared, opening its enormous mouth. The murky aura covering the “Ancient Demon Domain” seemed to be drawn by a powerful suction force, continuously flying into the ancient demon’s mouth.
The creatures wandering within the “Ancient Demon Domain” also shrieked sharply and transformed into murky auras, flying toward the ancient demon.
“What’s going on? What exactly is happening here?” Some disciples undergoing training suddenly felt the tremors and looked bewildered, not knowing what had occurred.
“Ahhh, don’t kill me…” A disciple defeated by a demon creature covered his face with both hands, screaming in terror.
Yet in the blink of an eye, the terrifying demon before him suddenly transformed into a murky aura, flying toward the distance.
Outside the “Ancient Demon Domain,” the sect members’ expressions all changed.
The murky aura covering the “Ancient Demon Domain” was continuously decreasing, with a vortex-like center point absorbing the murky aura.
“Senior Elder, what’s happening? Our disciples are still inside!”
“You’re asking me, but who should I ask? The ‘Ancient Demon Domain’ has existed for a long time, and nothing like this has ever happened before.”
“What should we do now?”
At this moment, the sect elders were in a panic, unaware of the terrifying events occurring inside.
“You all should leave quickly. The ancient great demon has revived. We must gather all the forces of the Dongling Continent to have any hope of killing it,” at this moment, He Yuhan, carrying Xia Youtian, appeared in the void and spoke to the people below.
“Xia Youtian, He Yuhan, how could you two…” The sect elders, seeing these two disciples, were momentarily stunned. Weren’t these two still inside? And they were only at the Small Celestial Realm, how could they possibly tear through the void?
“Don’t ask so many questions. If you don’t want to lose your lives here, leave quickly. This ancient great demon is definitely beyond your capabilities,” He Yuhan looked toward the distance, her expression serious. Without lingering, she disappeared into the void once again.
“Senior Elder, how could these two disciples…”
“Enough talk! Don’t you want to leave now?”
“But what about the disciples inside?”
“What do you mean, ‘what about them’? Can we possibly fight against that ancient great demon? Who would have thought that the legend was actually true.”
…
The Secret Chamber of the Seven Sages.
At the moment the ancient great demon revived, Lin Fan immediately sensed this powerful, violent aura.
This aura was shocking beyond belief.
Damn it, wherever I go, there are always these freakishly strong beings.
“Chick, stop fooling around. Come back,” Lin Fan waved his hand and immediately recalled Chick and the black dog into his backpack.
“This aura is incredibly strong… I wonder if even I can handle it or not.”
