~9 min read 1,774 words

As Su Chen's voice fell, the hall was in an uproar again.

Everyone wore a stunned expression.

No one expected the origin of the Great Evil King, the world's number one evil weapon, to be like this.

Previously, when Su Chen commented on the fifth-ranked divine weapon, the Heavenly Mandate Blade, he mentioned the Demon-Extermination War from three hundred years ago.

The great villain of that battle was precisely the peerless demon lord Yun Yang Dingtian.

Everyone in the hall spat on him, thinking he was a heinous great demon.

Yet they didn't expect that everything would be reversed in an instant.

Those Jianghu heroes who had just been spitting on and slandering Yun Yang Dingtian now felt their faces burning.

Yun Yang Dingtian was not a born great demon!

One could even say he was once a top-tier righteous man in the world.

Think of the Blood Ancestor Wu Hui who emerged more than three hundred years ago; who knows how much blood and rain he stirred up in the Jianghu.

Especially for the Buddhist sects, Wu Hui was like a demon from hell.

At that time, the number of Buddhist sects destroyed by Wu Hui was at least eight hundred, and the number of Buddhist disciples who died was countless.

Those so-called righteous experts in the Jianghu all fled in panic upon hearing the name 'Wu Hui'.

Only Yun Yang Dingtian stepped forward!

As a hidden expert, Yun Yang Dingtian didn't need to get involved in this muddy water.

But for the righteousness in his heart, for the Buddhist sects, and for the Heavenly Dao, Yun Yang Dingtian still stepped forward, risking his life to block the Blood Ancestor Wu Hui.

Even after killing Wu Hui, Yun Yang Dingtian did not boast about it, seeking no fame or fortune at all.

Yet such a Yun Yang Dingtian, who fought for Heaven, for the Buddha, and for the righteous path, met an end where his entire family was destroyed.

This was truly the will of Heaven playing with people.

Even the Jianghu heroes who hated Yun Yang Dingtian to the extreme had to admit at this moment that if they were in Yun Yang Dingtian's position, they would likely go mad and become lawless too!

And that world's number one evil blade, the Great Evil King, was born precisely under Yun Yang Dingtian's extreme anger.

It was fused from the divine weapons of Yun Yang Dingtian and Wu Hui.

From then on, there was no more Yun Yang Dingtian, who was as righteous as the clouds, only the peerless demon lord Yun Yang Dingtian.

For a time, everyone in the hall looked towards the Bai Yu Platform, wanting to hear what happened next.

On the Bai Yu Platform.

Su Chen quietly sipped his tea and said in a light tone:

"Yun Yang Dingtian's martial arts talent was extremely astonishing; after falling into the demonic path, he combined his demonic heart with his extraordinary martial arts cultivation to create a shocking and peerless evil art, 'Ten Tribulations of the Evil King'!"

"If the Great Evil King is the world's number one evil blade, then this 'Ten Tribulations of the Evil King' is the world's number one evil blade technique."

"This technique was born because of the Great Evil King and was also injected into the blade body of the Great Evil King, from then on fusing into one with the Great Evil King."

"In other words, anyone who obtains the Great Evil King will simultaneously obtain the peerless evil art 'Ten Tribulations of the Evil King' within the blade body."

"Later came the decisive battle between Wu Wuer and Yun Yang Dingtian; at the most critical moment, the Heavenly Dao manifested and forced Yun Yang Dingtian to his death."

"Before dying, Yun Yang Dingtian used his final lingering thoughts to leave behind two poisonous curses."

"One was that the descendants of the Wu family would never produce a martial arts prodigy, and the second was to destroy all Buddhist teachings in the world."

"These two poisonous curses, along with Yun Yang Dingtian's hatred for the heavens, were all fused into the Great Evil King, adding three parts of evil nature to the Great Evil King."

"Because of this layer of poisonous curses, the Great Evil King was ultimately sealed by high-ranking Buddhist monks in a specially made iron box, placed inside a Buddha statue, and guarded day and night by three thousand monks."

"But even so, the poisonous curses left by Yun Yang Dingtian were still taking effect; the Wu family fell silent, and the Great Han Buddhist sects also declined because of this."

"Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, it is tentatively ranked fourth on the Great Han Divine Weapon Ranking."

As Su Chen's voice fell, everyone in the hall couldn't help but let out a sigh.

Hearing about this Demon-Extermination War again, everyone's mood was completely different.

They really wanted to ask the Heavenly Dao, what exactly did Yun Yang Dingtian do wrong to be targeted like this?

At the same time, Yun Yang Dingtian's other poisonous curse was finally revealed.

It was indeed related to the Buddhist sects, and it was the most vicious one: to destroy all Buddhist sects in the world.

This also solved a doubt in everyone's hearts.

That was, the Great Han Jianghu was so strong, why were there so few Buddhist experts on the Martial Emperor Ranking and the Semi-Saint Ranking.

It seems that Yun Yang Dingtian's poisonous curse was taking effect.

Thinking of this, everyone felt three parts more fear for the Great Evil King.

This blade was definitely one of the most evil divine weapons in the world; although its power was astonishing, it could not be easily subdued.

And a group of evil-path experts widened their eyes.

For them, this Great Evil King was undoubtedly a top-tier divine weapon in the world.

Especially since the Great Evil King also contained a world-class evil-path blade technique, 'Ten Tribulations of the Evil King'.

Whoever could obtain it would soar into the sky.

For a time, everyone in the hall began to discuss it:

"What a Yun Yang Dingtian; I apologize for slandering him before; his fall into the demonic path was indeed excusable."

"That's right, although this Yun Yang Dingtian did many evil things, if you put yourself in his position, anyone would go mad."

"Yun Yang Dingtian fought for Heaven, for the Buddha, and for the righteous path; why did the Heavenly Dao treat him like this? Isn't this 'no good deed goes unpunished'?"

"This is truly the heavens being blind; such a righteous man as Yun Yang Dingtian was forced into the demonic path after his entire family was destroyed."

"This Great Evil King is so terrifying; even after being sealed by high-ranking Buddhist monks, it still has such effects; no wonder the Buddhist sects in the Great Han Jianghu are not flourishing."

"Such a terrifying divine weapon only ranks fourth on the Great Han Divine Weapon Ranking? How terrifying must the top three divine weapons be?"

"The Great Han Jianghu is indeed where the spiritual energy of the Nine Provinces gathers; even the Divine Weapon Ranking is so astonishing; I am looking forward to the next three divine weapons."

East District, 3rd Private Room.

The Palace Master of the Search God Palace rarely revealed a moved expression and whispered:

"What a Great Evil King, it actually has the power to defy the heavens; I wonder which Buddhist temple it is hidden in?"

"Forget it, there are only a few decent Buddhist temples in the Great Han Jianghu; if I search them one by one, I will eventually find it."

He had developed the intention to seize the Great Evil King.

If he could obtain this world's number one evil blade and the 'Ten Tribulations of the Evil King' inside, it would also be a huge improvement for his strength.

Thinking of this, the Palace Master of the Search God Palace looked towards the Bai Yu Platform again.

There were still three divine weapons left on the Great Han Divine Weapon Ranking; he wanted to see why these three divine weapons could surpass the Great Evil King.

On the Bai Yu Platform.

Su Chen lightly shook his folding fan and, without intentionally dragging it out, said directly:

"Next, let's comment on the next divine weapon on the list."

"Third place on the Divine Weapon Ranking, the Righteous-Demonic Ling Shuang Sword!"

"Regarding the Ling Shuang Sword, I believe all fellow Jianghu friends have heard of it."

"Rather than calling it a divine weapon, it is better to call it a demonic weapon, the most terrifying demonic weapon in the Great Han Jianghu."

"Its creator was precisely the Martial Emperor Ying Shuntian, who had a fearsome reputation five hundred years ago."

"Back then, Ying Shuntian was most famous for his sword dao, and the Ling Shuang Sword he wielded was hailed as the strongest sword of that era."

"But in the final battle between righteousness and evil, Ying Shuntian and the Chess Saint Sword Ancestor both died in battle, and the Ling Shuang Sword was also broken."

"Since then, Ying Shuntian's subordinates and descendants have sought to restore the Ling Shuang Sword for generations, hence they are also known as the Demon Sword clan."

"But people in the Jianghu only know that the Ling Shuang Sword was Ying Shuntian's personal sword and had peerless power, but they do not know that the Ling Shuang Sword has another function."

"Back then, before Ying Shuntian died, he left behind a poisonous curse: for five hundred years after his death, the Great Han Jianghu would not have peace for generations, and he would return again after five hundred years."

"Many people thought this was just the impotent rage of Ying Shuntian before he died, but they didn't know this was a backup plan he left behind."

"His corpse was buried in the Life-and-Death Chessboard under Mirror Reflection Lake, where there is a strange formation he left behind that can continuously repair his primordial spirit."

"Five hundred years is exactly the time it takes for him to fully recover from his injuries."

"As long as someone can open the Life-and-Death Chessboard under Mirror Reflection Lake, he can be resurrected with demonic thoughts and reappear in the Jianghu."

"And the key to opening Mirror Reflection Lake is precisely the Ling Shuang Sword."

"Even fewer people know that the Ling Shuang Sword is divided into two swords, one righteous and one demonic; the righteous sword sharpens the edge, combining heart and sword, while the demonic sword is quenched in blood, making it invincible."
