Left Hand Pointing at the Moon

Chapter 429: Making a Move, Demonic Arts

"Damn it!"

The demon leader opposite looked grim.

He was only at the seventh level of the Samsara Realm, with few subordinates to begin with.

Now, so many had been killed by this human.

The loss was heavy!

He would surely be punished by higher-level demons upon his return.

His face contorted further at the thought.

"If I catch you, I will make your life worse than death!"

"Absolutely!"

He roared, charging towards the young man.

Before the youth could self-destruct, he had to capture him, extract his divine soul, and torment him fiercely.

Let him watch as his own body, his everything, was devoured.

Make him wish he were dead!

Only then could his losses be compensated.

With the demon leader's addition, the youth became increasingly weak.

He was already in a state of self-destruction, now merely forcibly bursting out to take a few more down with him.

But in essence, he was just a martial artist at the third level of the Samsara Realm.

He was no match for so many demons, let alone a leader at the seventh level of the Samsara Realm.

"All... die for me!"

The youth shouted, his expression bordering on madness, a towering sword intent erupting.

In this instant, it was as if a colossal sword dao expert had appeared.

The surrounding demons were shocked, momentarily stunned.

Xu Chuan, hidden in the shadows, also stepped out.

"This kid is quite spirited, and he's cultivating quite fast."

Xu Chuan said with a light smile.

The moment the youth appeared, Xu Chuan recognized his identity.

It was Wang Lun, the beggar he had brought back from outside long ago, the one with the innate sword bone.

The last time Xu Chuan saw him, he was only in the Nirvana Realm, but now he was already a martial artist at the third level of the Samsara Realm.

And he could fight on par with a demon at the seventh level of the Samsara Realm and a group of demons of other realms.

That towering sword intent even moved Xu Chuan.

Indeed, worthy of an innate sword bone, quite impressive.

The reason he hadn't acted immediately was to test him, to see how he would face such a situation.

Xu Chuan was very satisfied with the result.

Naturally, he would not let Wang Lun perish here.

So he appeared.

"To dare attack a disciple of my Taiyi Holy Land is truly seeking death!"

Xu Chuan said in a cold tone.

With a wave of his hand, Wang Lun's self-destruction was directly interrupted.

Then, a pill flew into his mouth, and his injuries began to heal at a visible speed.

"Who are you?!"

The demon leader asked, extremely wary, seeing Xu Chuan suddenly appear.

Just standing there, Xu Chuan made him feel an uncontrollable sense of dread.

It was as if he would die at the hands of this person in the next moment.

"Who am I? You are not worthy to know!"

"Now, you should die!"

Xu Chuan finished, waving his large hand.

The once arrogant and menacing demon leader, along with his subordinates, instantly turned into dust, then scattered with the wind, disappearing from the world.

Mere demons at the Samsara Realm were no match for him; he only needed to move his hand.

"Your Highness... you've come out of seclusion?"

Wang Lun stared blankly at the scene, his voice trembling as he spoke.

He was excited, genuinely excited from the bottom of his heart.

No one in the entire Taiyi Holy Land did not recognize the person before him.

Now, Xu Chuan was almost deified within the Taiyi Holy Land.

Everyone set Xu Chuan as their goal, constantly pursuing his footsteps.

Xu Chuan was the hero in everyone's heart.

Everyone admired him.

Wang Lun was no exception.

Furthermore, he was brought to Taiyi Holy Land by Xu Chuan, so he was filled with gratitude and reverence for Xu Chuan.

Seeing Xu Chuan again now, how could he not be excited?

"Yes, my cultivation is complete, so it's time to come out of seclusion."

"If I hadn't come out, wouldn't you have died?"

Having dealt with the demons, Xu Chuan said with a smile, teasingly.

Hearing this, Wang Lun felt very ashamed and lowered his head, saying, "I'm sorry, Your Highness, for disappointing you."

When Xu Chuan brought him back to the Holy Land, he had told him to cultivate diligently, saying his talent was excellent.

He had even given him resources to cultivate several times.

It was because of this that his cultivation had progressed so rapidly.

Yet today, he had almost died at the hands of demons.

It was Xu Chuan who appeared in time and saved his life again.

He felt that his performance did not live up to Xu Chuan's efforts at all.

"No need to apologize, you've already done well."

Xu Chuan shook his head.

If it were any other disciple, they might not have been able to achieve this much.

Let alone whether they could fight the demons with a resolve to die.

Whether they could escape the demons was another question.

"Tell me, what is the situation in Taiyi Holy Land now?"

Since coming out of seclusion, he hadn't yet understood the situation of Taiyi Holy Land.

Now that he had met Wang Lun, he naturally wanted to understand it clearly before making further plans.

However, since Wang Lun dared to come out and kill demons, it seemed that Taiyi Holy Land, protected by the Two Realms Pass, was likely fine.

Wang Lun's subsequent reply confirmed Xu Chuan's thoughts.

"Taiyi Holy Land is very safe under the protection of Your Highness's Emperor Weapon; the demons cannot break through."

"However, a few demon emperors have appeared, constantly coveting Your Highness's Emperor Weapon, and they attack the Holy Land with their subordinates periodically."

"Fortunately, we have two Grand Elders and a host of secluded elders from the Holy Land. With the defense of the Emperor Weapon, they have repelled the demons time and again."

"And we have been cultivating desperately, improving our strength to kill demons."

"But some time ago, the demons, using some unknown method, managed to contaminate Your Highness's Emperor Weapon."

"The defense of the Emperor Weapon is weakening by the day, and the demons have amassed a large force outside the Holy Land, seemingly waiting for the day the defense completely disappears."

"The two elders wanted to figure out the method used by the demons, so they sent disciples like us with moderate strength out to investigate, while they themselves are attracting the attention of the demon powerhouses on the front lines."

"It's just that I was unlucky. Not long after coming out, I encountered a group of demons and was captured by them."

"Relying on the many methods Your Highness gave me before, I managed to escape, but I was still caught up."

"If it weren't for Your Highness being here today, I would likely have met my end."

Wang Lun explained to Xu Chuan in detail what had happened during this period, omitting no detail.

Xu Chuan frowned after listening.

"As expected, one cannot underestimate any existence. The demons still have such means."

Xu Chuan knew very well how strong the defense of the Two Realms Pass was.

It was normal for the demons not to be able to break through.

He hadn't expected that they would use some unknown method to contaminate the Emperor Weapon and then use it to breach the defense.

"Your Highness, please go back quickly and take a look. I've been out for many days, and I don't know how the Holy Land is doing."

Wang Lun said to Xu Chuan anxiously.

Xu Chuan's appearance made him feel as if he had found a pillar of support.

With Xu Chuan here, the Holy Land could be saved!

"Let's go, let's go back and see!"

Xu Chuan knew that time was of the essence and could not be delayed.
