Chapter 446: Blade Light Rises, Slashing the Remnant Demon; Decisive Battle Approaches, Dark Layout
The blood-colored blade light slashed through the air. The fierce spirit holding the umbrella passed through the blade light like a phantom. The demonic blade's light was fierce, yet it couldn't touch the red umbrella representing the Yu Yu Jiuyou even by half!
The old demon lord of the Remnant Demon Sect was terrified in his heart: "Abandoned by the Yu Yu Jiuyou! A peerless fierce spirit inferior to the netherworld!" They didn't know why this fierce spirit holding the blade was abandoned by the Yu Yu Jiuyou, unable to see the Yu Yu Jiuyou until death, but everyone knew clearly that such a dead spirit rejected by the Yu Yu Jiuyou and left in the human world was enough to be called a peerless fierce spirit.
The corpse's figure appeared behind the blade light.
The blade light turned up blood color, as if someone was whispering in the blade light: "All sins, all return to me! Living in the Avici, forever falling into the Avici! Release! Great Release!"
After learning the Great Release Demonic Blade from the monk Xiang You and experiencing several journeys of reincarnation, Qian Chen finally managed to imitate seven-tenths of its essence. Standing in the darkness, heart toward the light, suffering forever in the Avici Hell, with infinite regret, guilt, madness, despair, sadness, and anger in his heart—all this turned into powerful demonic nature. The other half of kindness, forgiveness, protection, compassion, and love always maintained his original heart, preventing this blade from sinking...
This is a blade that possesses infinite demonic nature but always maintains a shred of obsession in the heart.
Great Release Demonic Blade...
The blood light swallowed everything. This is the Yu Yu Jiuyou Dao's Heavenly Demon Blood-Transforming Ancient Shendao, but those who witnessed this blade with their own eyes would never think it was the Heavenly Demon Blood-Transforming Ancient Shendao, because the mysterious demonic nature on the demonic blade was no longer a Heavenly Demon, but a shred of obsession remaining after experiencing infinite pain and torture.
Qian Chen's temperament had been tempered, but he hadn't reached the step of grasping "my obsession," so he took a shortcut here...
The external incarnation held the blade and slashed out. The obsession demonic thought in the blade light that would not be worn out by ten thousand kalpas was replaced by the demonic music played in unison in the countless tunnels of the Noisy Demon Realm.
At this moment, Qian Chen's true body, playing the Dirge of the Gods in front of the stone wall, was immersed in the prelude of the Divine Heaven, feeling the heart and spirit of the gods raising the glorious world together, when it suddenly changed. The infinitely glorious world of the gods suddenly fell into darkness.
The gods in the sky were suddenly twisted and narrow-minded, turning into fierce ghosts and demon gods.
They remained near the god-sacrificing platform. Millions of corpses were laid out here, and the gods turned into blood rain and fell together, leaving behind the most firm obsession through the ages, which was drawn by the demonic blade and entrusted to it.
Countless obsessions of gods emerged in the demonic blade. As the blade light soared, the piled-up corpses and the sea of blood and mountains of corpses all appeared in the blade light. The three Yin Spirits of the Remnant Demon Sect no longer had a shred of resistance, turning into blood light, wanting to escape.
The blade light swallowed and spat, slashing one person into pieces. The natal divine demon didn't even hold on for an instant.
At the moment the physical body cracked, he only had time to wail before being dragged into the blood light. A powerful demon sect figure who had cultivated a natal divine demon was easily slashed and killed by the demonic blade... It was not that the demonic path was too incompetent, but facing Qian Chen's blade, which merged the Great Release Demonic Blade and the Heavenly Demon Blood-Transforming Ancient Shendao, as long as there was a flaw in the heart, it was fatal. The infinite obsession entrusted to the demonic path and the divine demonic thoughts of the gods who turned into countless heavenly demons.
As long as there was a shred of fear in the heart, it was immediately a fate of eternal damnation.
And the three Yin Spirits of the Remnant Demon Sect had been terrified by Qian Chen's show of ghosts and gods before he appeared, so they were already fearful. Facing a blade that extremely restrained the demonic path, this flaw left them with no power to fight back.
The pale-faced, beardless middle-aged man and the short, fat Yin Spirit together sacrificed the human bone whisk, and three thousand cyan threads as pale as white hair flew, wanting to tie up the demonic blade.
But the change of the demonic blade at this moment had already entered a realm that the two completely couldn't understand and was inconceivable. That blood-colored blade light carried the majestic and glorious gold of the gods, yet mixed with the deepest darkness of the Yu Yu Jiuyou. This sense of contradiction between holiness and filth was perfectly contained by the blood light, becoming a life that was supreme and great, yet also supreme and dark... It was as if on that day of the Great Tribulation of the Gods, the Candle Dragon's remnant soul entered the demon path along with the Luo Tian Immortal Artifact, pulling the Immortal Qin Divine Dao entrusted to the Luo Tian Immortal Artifact into the Yu Yu Jiuyou together.
All life in the Jin Ling Cave Heaven... countless gods, Fangxian Dao disciples, three Fangshi, and Zhu Jiuyin all fell into darkness.
The deep, dark divine demon born from the Yu Yu Jiuyou containing everything!
The demonic blade split open the three thousand mottled cyan threads. The Remnant Demon Sect's sect-protecting magic treasure, the jade-like hand bone, had three fingers broken by the demonic blade, and the whisk threads held in its palm exploded and fell. With one sweep of the blade light, the two Yin Spirit demon lords were slashed, and their Yin Spirits fell into the blade light, almost unable to struggle. The remaining true transmissions and inner disciples of the Remnant Demon Sect didn't know the various foreshadowings before Qian Chen swung this blade.
They only saw that indescribable fierce spirit, with just two blades, slash and kill the three old demons who were terrifying to everyone in their hearts.
At this moment, Qian Chen instantly became an existence in everyone's hearts that was unrivaled and comparable to a Demon Lord.
He became the culprit who caused the Great Tribulation ten thousand years ago, that invincible existence. At this moment, even the most fierce Remnant Demon Sect disciple only thought of fleeing.
As the remaining blood-colored blade light swallowed and spat, it slashed and killed most of the remaining demon sect disciples. At this moment, the demonic path, which had slashed and killed dozens of cultivators who were at least in the Penetrating the Law realm, finally had blood light rich enough to draw the power of death from the netherworld.
The corpse raised its head slightly and finally saw the reflection of the woman holding the umbrella behind him from that bright blade light. He paused, and the blade light chasing the crowd stopped.
The one-armed corpse looked back suddenly... but behind him was empty.
The woman under the red umbrella walked away slowly with lotus steps. Where would the remaining disciples of the Remnant Demon Sect dare to stay? They fled in panic in all directions, the only thought being to escape this terrifying place as soon as possible.
The corpse continued to pursue the red umbrella.
A little demon secretly stayed in place, collecting the corpses of the three Yin Spirits of the Remnant Demon Sect and the magic treasure bags of the other disciples. It carried the human bone whisk handle, lowered its head, stuck its butt out, and picked up the whisk threads one by one. It even came to the corpse demon with broken limbs lying on the stone wall, scraped off two liang of corpse oil with effort, and seeing that it couldn't destroy the corpse demon, and Qian Chen had already gone far, it was finally satisfied and left swaggeringly.
Si Princess Qingcheng put away her umbrella, bit her red lips with her silver teeth, and said excitedly yet somewhat uneasily: "Senior brother, my acting didn't have any flaws, right!"
Qian Chen was busy scraping magic treasure bags from the Ear Dao God, holding the white bone whisk, considering how to connect it back. Hearing this, he didn't raise his head and said: "Junior sister acted extremely well. If it weren't for you, how could those demon lords be scared to the point of being unable to fight back?"
"Then what should we do next?" Junior sister Si still had a flush of excitement on her face, her fan-like eyes blinking.
Qian Chen smiled slightly, the demonic blade pointing obliquely at the ground, and said: "If the demonic path is smart enough, they should know that the situation has slipped out of their control and it's time to do business! If they are still stalling, I can kill them all one by one!"
"Business?"
"That is, what the Sima family is determined to get, what the demon sect is vigorously supporting, and why they must do it on the God-Sacrificing Platform!" Qian Chen said calmly.
The foundation of this matter is the cooperation between the Sima family and the demonic path. After all, the Sima family is the royal family of the Southern Jin, and cooperating with the demonic path is also risking the world's condemnation. When the two sides cooperate effectively, they can certainly control the situation, but Qian Chen has severed the connection between the demonic path and the Sima family within the Jin Ling Cave Heaven. For them, the situation has instead become chaotic.
If the two sides still count on close cooperation, there will inevitably be big problems.
The only thing they can do is precisely to stop pursuing the righteous path on Xie An's side and instead push forward the one thing both sides want—to assist Sima Yan in achieving the Nascent Soul.
As long as this matter is done, the Sima family will have a Nascent Soul figure to hold the line in the blink of an eye, and the situation will return to their control. With Sima Yan, a Nascent Soul True Person, there is no need for any Remnant Demon Sect, and the two sides can establish an even closer connection.
And what Qian Chen wants is precisely to force them to have to promote Sima Yan to Nascent Soul at this most chaotic moment.
Now, the connection between the God-Sacrificing Platform and the Luo Tian world allows Qian Chen to influence the God-Sacrificing Platform from aspects the demonic path doesn't know about at all. And Xie An's side is a good chess piece to contain the demonic path. Now that the abyss where the God-Sacrificing Platform is located has been awakened by Qian Chen's true body with many fierce spirits, it can be said that the water has been successfully muddied. Next is Qian Chen's most familiar time to fish in troubled waters. He can start laying out step by step and formally deal with Sima Yan.
Although Sima Yan failed to impact the Nascent Soul, after so many years of borrowing the national fortune of the Southern Jin, he should have long since recovered as before, and a point of pure yang has already been conceived in his ghost body and yin soul.
If he didn't have such an achievement, how could he have the confidence to impact the Nascent Soul again?
In this way, he has already stepped into the Nascent Soul with half a foot. As long as he passes the life-and-death barrier, he can achieve it in one step and become the second Nascent Soul ancestor of the Sima family.
The decisive battle that the demonic path and the Sima family think of is to take down Xie An in one fell swoop after Sima Yan achieves the Nascent Soul.
Qian Chen himself, whether it is his true body Li Er or his incarnation Li Taibai, is not in their consideration.
And the decisive battle that Qian Chen thinks of is at the very moment Sima Yan impacts the Nascent Soul. Zhu Jiuyin is a big trump card on the Luo Tian world side; making the cooperation between the Sima family and the demonic path chaotic is also a chess piece to weaken the enemy; even the various timing and geographical advantages near the God-Sacrificing Platform; and the dark hands buried by the three Heavenly Masters on the aristocratic family side are all in Qian Chen's use.
Si Princess Qingcheng was a little worried in her heart, but she tried her best not to show it on her face.
Her mother's clan colluded with the demonic path, and her own father was also calculating in secret, wanting to destroy the conspiracy they were planning. Speaking of which, she was the one who was most sad.
Therefore, Qian Chen was a little surprised that Tao Tianshi was actually willing to let Si Princess Qingcheng enter the Jin Ling Cave Heaven.
"The demonic path and the Sima family have prepared for hundreds of years. With the status of the Sima family as the royal family, plus the ability of those people in the demonic path to stir up trouble, it would be strange if they didn't have a few trump cards! But I don't know what preparations they have, I can only see who calculates deeper! On the contrary, I have some guesses about the three trump cards prepared by the Daoist side!"
"I should be a card prepared by Tao Tianshi. The golden bell in Wang Zhiyuan's hand is not that simple. I'm afraid that at a critical moment, it can also forcibly open the Jin Ling Cave Heaven!"
"Xie An is only half a step away from the Nascent Soul, and he is a big shot of the same level as Sima Yan. How can he be as ordinary as he appears now? There must be arrangements on Wang Longxiang and Xie Lingyun... This should be prepared by Zhang Tianshi. Sun En is estimated to deal with Sima Shi personally... And Liu Yu... He is also a chess piece for the Daoist side to deal with the Sima family. The moves of the three Daoist Heavenly Masters are both in the Jin Ling Cave Heaven and outside the cave heaven."
"But outside the cave heaven, there are Daoist Heavenly Masters, three Nascent Souls. The Sima family certainly doesn't want to put the key there, so the decisive battle should still be in the cave heaven! The biggest trump card of the demonic path—Zhu Jiuyin, has already defected to me. If it weren't for this, with a Dao Lord protecting, even if it's a remnant soul of a Dao Lord, it is severely restricted, but protecting a Nascent Soul achievement still has seven-tenths of certainty."
"It's a pity you met me, consider yourselves unlucky!" ===== CHAPTER 447 =====
