Ace Of Terrans

Chapter 695 Zephyr’s Horror.

Shi Lang spat on the ground as he displayed his disgust toward the shocked leader of the demonic cultivator, Zephyr.

The latter asked in disbelief, “What do you mean the demonic energy cannot harm you? Even if you have lightning spiritual energy, if the demonic energy enters your body, it would still do you some harm. How are you able to stand up without any trouble? Tell me!”

Zephyr felt that if this continued, he would go mad. In his sect, his demonic energy was stronger than anyone, including his master. This human was the strongest person he had ever faced. Not only did this battle shatter his arrogance of being invincible in his realm, but it also made him doubt himself.

Being able to be tagged as the Demonic Genius meant that he did have considerable skills and talent. Even more so, the resolve and fanatism it took to rise in the ranks of demonic cultivators was not low. Zephyr had faced many setbacks in the past, too, but this time, he needed to know if he could get up from this knockdown.

Shi Lang replied, “I am channeling my sword intent through my body to cleanse and purge this demonic energy of yours. That is why I can withstand the corruption, and my spiritual energy heals me as the demonic energy is purged out.”

Zephyr was not the only one. Everyone else, including Emperor Hell Flame, sucked in a cold breath. They did not expect that Shi Lang would be this cruel to himself. The pain of sword intent coursing through the meridians gave many stronger people nightmares.

Refining body with sword intent was not a path any sane man would opt for. Only insane cultivators choose this path. However, Shi Lang used this method to protect himself from demonic energy. They could understand that the application was reasonable, but he resisted all the pain from his core and fought the enemy simultaneously.

This resilience made the people respect him more, but they still could not digest that Shi Lang was cruel to his enemy, but he was even crueler to himself. Emperor Hell Flame said, “To reach the peak of greatness, you need more than talent and providence. Even the heavens bow down to those who go to the next level in their strives to improve. No wonder this young man could gain the title of a champion.”

The mercenaries behind him nodded silently. Both the fight and the people fighting transcended their knowledge and understanding. Emperor Hell Flame’s words were precious guidance to them, and Shi Lang’s actions inspired them to become stronger.

The terran stood facing Zephyr, who had numerous cuts on his clothes. However, the wounds on his body were almost healed. The cuts and gashes were no longer bleeding; a faint red mark was visible. This was the terrifying regenerative ability of his Terran physique. He did not need much medical support, and the spiritual energy boosted his recovery ability.

Shi Lang cracked his neck by tilting it side to side and said, “Enough time wasted. Now you can go and wait for your god in hell.”

His aura surged, and Zephyr panicked. He took out a black jade slip. He wanted to escape, but Shi Lang did not want to let him escape. He said, “Shura Domain.”

The entire place within fifty meters was covered with red lighting bolts. Shi Lang’s lightning domain had improved qualitatively. It was transparent, and everyone could look inside the domain. They all watched Zephyr shiver and freeze. The dark cloak of demonic energy around him was shredded slowly.

The terran walked ahead slowly, and Zephyr yelled, “Stop! You bastard, do you know that killing me will make Yin Blood Sect come after all your people? Your family members, your friends. Especially your women? Let me go!”

Shi Lang did not react and kept walking ahead. He did not care about any of the threats that this guy threw. The terran believed in one thing: if his action was to cause the death of his loved ones, then so be it. He will just go on a killing rampage and kill all the demonic cultivators before him.

Zephyr saw that his words did not threaten Shi Lang enough, so he said, “My father is a demonic Emperor Blood Saber. He is the leader of the Yin Blood sect. Please spare me, and I will ask him to let you go.”

Shi Lang sighed and stopped as he reached close to Zephyr. He asked, “Do you think anyone here will go and talk to your father and tell him that I killed you and your bitch ass tool men?”

Zephyr was shocked, and Shi Lang spat on his face. The terran said, “Feel that, wake up. Now, time to die.”

The demonic cultivator watched as a blade fell on his neck, and his world began to spin. He detached his primordial soul from his dying body and tried to fly away when a strong suction pulled his soul into Shi Lang’s hand. The terran said, “You will not be able to run away without suffering for what you have done here. Death is too easy a punishment for you and your filthy kind of distorted demonic cultivators.”

A black ball of light flickered in his palm. The black ball of light was the primordial soul, the most sensitive part of a Cultivator’s being. Shi Lang smiled as he looked at the primordial soul and said, “You will serve as a good food for the demon bane tree.”

The light flickered, and Shi Lang looked at Emperor Hell Flame with narrowed eyes. He asked, “Do you have any means to hold this soul?”

The old man shivered and nodded before he appeared next to Shi Lang. Then he took out a jade bottle. Shi Lang placed the soul inside the bottle and said, “Please keep it for now. I will take it back after finishing my task here.”

Emperor Hell Flame did not dare to put any air at this moment because Shi Lang was gazing at him with great indifference. The old man even had the urge to bow down. The terran turned around, and the old man asked, ‘Why did I want to bow to this young man?’

Shi Lang walked closer to the altar and heard a small voice, “Do not come here. This place is rigged. If you step in, the array will trigger, and the altar will activate.”

The terran raised his head and found that it was Yun Xue speaking. The girl had her hands tied to a pole, her feet were shackled, and her white hair covered half of her face. Shi Lang thought about it and said, “You do not have to worry about me, Xiao Xue.”

He spoke as softly as possible. He looked at the ground and then at the sky. He asked silently, ‘Raksha, what can we do?’

The sword spirit replied, ‘Well, I have some pent-up frustration. Cut this pattern with sword intent. That should do the trick.’

Shi Lang thought and nodded, and he flicked the sword. The sword intent materialized in the void, and multiple sword rays ran along the ground. The girls inside the circle froze, not daring even to flinch.

A faint curtain between the altar and the terran melted away at this moment. Shi Lang took a step forward and observed the surroundings for any changes. After confirming things, he nodded and walked up to Yun Xue. With a gentle tap of his feet, he rose to the void, and his gaze met her.

Yun Xue looked at him for a moment before she turned to look back at the ground. He asked, “I thought you would wait for my wife to ascend and accept your pursuit. Here you are, with the eyes of a loser.”

Ming sat on the ground, and she took offense to this statement. She wanted to rebuke Shi Lang when the latter continued, “Do you think I am a shallow man interested in appearances?”

Yun Xue raised her gaze, but her eyes were brimming with tears. She shook her head slightly, and Shi Lang waved his hand to cut off the rope tying her arms. Yun Xue gently landed on the ground. The terran did not touch her directly and used his spiritual energy to guide her down.

This gesture was so soft that the cruel warrior aura from earlier could not be compared. Before the two could discuss anything further, the mercenaries arrived beside them and began rescuing everyone. Shi Lang returned his sword and said to Bo Qingtan and Yun Xue, “After this, we will head to the north, Valley of forgers and that is where we will register for the Centurion Tournament.”

The two people were confused and shocked, but Shi Lang did not give them the chance to put up any questions, he made his way to Emperor Hell Flame, as he needed urgent help with something.

Hell Flame saw Shi Lang walking toward him and was ready to give him any help, when suddenly the sky turned dark. The terran stopped and said, “Senior, I have to face a tribulation, please bring them all away from harm.”

BOOM!!!

The sky rumbled with red lightning bolts as he finished speaking.
