could not fathom how a junior from the Seeking Tao Realm could possibly step a hundred meters in one stride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even he…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>was only able to capture the essence of three out of the Seven Ashes Steps, each step barely spanning twenty meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Seven Ashes Steps were extremely difficult to learn, and the feasibility of their execution was exceedingly low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Should the steps be misstepped, the circle of fire would dissipate, and there was a high chance that not even a single step could be taken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the brink of life and death, Wen Yu admitted that he would never dare to use such a delicate spiritual technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet this young man had succeeded in one stride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind the giant rock, the trio of mentor and disciples widened their eyes in awe, watching the black-robed youth with a sword, fearlessly charging forward amid the deadly silence of the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Autumnwater Sword in his hand emitted a luminescent glow, the heavily water-attributed blade bursting into flames at that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The intense icy water vapor from the sword body evaporated rapidly into billowing steam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The palm that held the sword glowed red as he rotated his wrist lightly, and with a low roar from Baili An, the billowing steam morphed into a skyward surging python of air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, the massive battle axe wielded by the corpse demon continued to swing down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dark clouds above were directly pulled down under the terrifying force of that axe, causing a massive explosion in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The heavily oppressive air burst into an explosive sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The few humans, sucked up to the highest point by a powerful force, were crushed into a spray of blood with black clouds on the axe even before it completely fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like the python-like Sword Qi crackling continuously beneath the fractured axe, the serpent’s head was as brittle as tofu and was cleaved open by a terrifyingly large gash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sword tip of the Autumnwater Sword trembled violently, as if it could snap at any moment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Benei An’s circle of fire at his feet suddenly extinguished, and the Sword Qi turned into a python showing signs of collapse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the battle axe had completely fallen, he was already unable to withstand it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he didn’t retreat, his mere Fourth Grade Seeking Tao Realm corpse demon body would likely be blasted into gore just like the bodies of those mortals at the highest point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An turned his head and glanced at the deer caught up in the reverse wind above him, his usually gentle eyes now replaced by a fierce determination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A fight to the death!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No Retreat!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The giant battle axe roared down!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An’s eyes turned a bloodshot red, devoid of any distinction between iris and sclera, the entire eyeball replaced by a blood-like color.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“AAAAAAAAAA!!!!”From his mouth, he let out a scream that wasn’t like anything human, harshly stomping his foot and stepping out seven fiery rings of light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seven explosive sounds!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An’s body was encompassed by seven rings of fire, and even the specially-crafted black robe given to him by Jin Sheng started burning at the edges in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The burning Autumnwater Sword slashed horizontally, its fiery light blending into the air python.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The frosty air immediately ignited like the world’s fiercest oil, bursting into flames that formed a fiery dragon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cracking head of the python rapidly fused amidst the roaring flames, angrily soaring into the pitch-black night and fiercely smashing onto the battle axe enveloped by dark clouds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The overpowering dark clouds, emboldened by the Demonic Qi, broke to smithereens under the python’s exploding impacts, dissipating into a towering black mist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, the deer and the remaining humans who had been pulled up into the sky also cascaded back down to earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An, trembling, pulled out the Glazed Treasure Umbrella from his waist, channeling Spiritual Power and throwing it behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The handle of the umbrella pierced down into the earth, stopping everyone’s fall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the exquisite control of Spiritual Power, the umbrella opened with a pop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The umbrella surface emitted a faint glimmer of glazed light, gentle yet forceful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under that light, everyone’s fall slowed and they landed gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The deer lay on the ground, its golden net getting tighter, teardrops filling its animal eyes as it worriedly looked at Baili An below the battle axe, struggling vehemently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind the rocks, watching the Sword Qi that had risen into a fiery python and soared towards the fiery river in the sky, Wen Yu’s spine had long ago straightened completely, his heart nearly bursting out of his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t help the dry itch in his throat, tremblingly exclaimed, “Fen…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fen…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fen River Sword Technique!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s the Taixuan Sect’s Fen River Sword Technique!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who on earth is this young man?!”The female disciple by his side looked slightly confused, with a trace of excitement and shock in her confusion, blurting out, “Fen River Sword Technique?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What is that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is it powerful?”At that moment, Wen Yu’s expression was beyond shock, his palms already soaked with layers of sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze had already been replaced by that expanse of light, his eyes rabidly longing and fierce, “The Fen River Sword Technique is a set of swordsmanship personally created by the Sect Master of the Taixuan Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even I don’t have the privilege to behold it, let alone learn it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How can this mere Seeking Tao Realm junior know the Sect Master’s swordsmanship!”Who is he?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those qualified to learn the Fen River Sword Technique were only a very few among the Inner Disciples of the Taixuan Sect, and he knew exactly who they were.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this youth before him, he was sure this was his first encounter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his fiery robe, which consumed red flames like blood, Baili An, surrounded by persistent rings of fire, stood like a War God amidst fire, his blood-red eyes fiercely gazing at the humongous corpse demon ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His head, under the oppressive force of the axe wind, cracked open Korea.LogInformation: Blood wound—blood red fresh blood trickled down from his pale nose bridge, giving him an unusual sense of bloody handsomeness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t tell what realm of strength the front-end corpse demon possessed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All he knew was that in his presence, he was like a speck of dust—utterly insignificant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew that the very next moment when the axe would fall, he would completely perish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was so close to death, but for some reason, his heart was devoid of any fear, his gaze steadily meeting those huge lantern-like red demonic pupils.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sharp tusks protruded beyond his lips, and upon his fair handsome face, lines of bright red blood formed, resembling lively fine blood snakes, densely creating ancient unreadable characters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An raised his sword, the sharp tip pointing straight at the battle axe, uttering an incomprehensible Corpse Language from his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The voice shook the soul, and within this commanding tone, Wen Yu seemed to see a vast sea of blood, almost causing his entire head to boil over in excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, he nearly lost his mind, overwhelmed with madness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corpse demon’s mouth emitted a ghostly light through the green Corpse Pearl suddenly dimmed and darkened as if suppressed by some natural born predator, turning pitch dark and dull.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The heavy battle axe in its hand also stiffened instantly, coming to a halt just three inches above his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The heavy body of the corpse demon, as if startled, retreated thunderously two steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blood-red light in Baili An’s pupils dispersed along with the faint seven circles of fire on his body, his gaze diffusing as if drained of strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Autumnwater Sword slipped powerlessly from his grasp, his whole body engulfed in flames as he collapsed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The deer cried out with urgency, wanting to rush forward to catch his falling body, but it was tightly restrained and unable to move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Glazed Treasure Umbrella, having lost the support of its master’s Spiritual Power, could no longer slow the fall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a thud, Baili An heavily hit the ground, creating a massive crater as dust filled the air.\u003C\u002Fp>",1375,"2026-06-06T15:16:24.199Z",1,"novelbin.me","ff4fdf7a982cdb0955d43b4d70e11d99c6bc1f04879b19cb039cfdb1d664250e","journey-to-the-end-of-the-night-chapter-36","journey-to-the-end-of-the-night-chapter-34",1594,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fjourney-to-the-end-of-the-night-cover.jpg"]
