Chapter 128 Night Demon God

Swish—

A sword aura cleaved down along the Night Demon God’s enormous body, instantly bisecting it.

Gu Yutong’s eyes lit up at this sight.

Her master’s sword was truly formidable!

However, Chen Xiao’s brow remained furrowed, without the slightest relaxation.

He could sense that the Night Demon God was not dead.

Sure enough, at that moment, the starlight in the night sky suddenly transformed into shooting stars, falling upon the Night Demon God.

And the bisected body of the Night Demon God reconnected, returning to its original form.

"What the hell is this?"

Gu Yutong exclaimed in disbelief.

"Heh heh heh, young man, your sword is truly remarkable. I didn't expect you to possess such a magical treasure. This venerable one must obtain your body!"

The Night Demon God said with a leering grin.

"You truly are incorrigible! You might be able to withstand one sword, but what about the second, or the third?"

Chen Xiao shouted in a deep voice.

"Within this Night Demon Heavenly Canopy (Ye Mo Tian Gai), I have inexhaustible power. And your sword’s power is so great, I refuse to believe you can use it continuously. When your strength is depleted, I can easily take your body!"

The Night Demon God said smugly.

"Heh heh, then let’s just try it!"

Chen Xiao sneered twice, "Let's see if I run out of strength first, or if you use up all the starlight!"

As he spoke, Chen Xiao swung another sword.

The sword aura flew past, and the Night Demon God's body was once again split in two.

Immediately afterward, starlight fell, and its body recovered again.

A battle of attrition thus began.

Next, within this Night Demon Heavenly Canopy, Chen Xiao’s sword auras flew wildly, and the starlight in the sky continuously rained down.

When Chen Xiao swung his tenth sword, the Night Demon God remained calm.

But when Chen Xiao swung his fiftieth sword, it could no longer remain calm.

"How can this kid have so much spiritual energy within him? Even a Transformation God (Hua Shen) realm cultivator should be exhausted after using so much spiritual energy. Why does he still seem so effortless?"

Accompanied by the Night Demon God's unease, Chen Xiao became increasingly at ease.

He discovered that each time the Night Demon God recovered its body, it required more starlight than the last.

At this rate, it simply couldn’t last much longer.

And each time Chen Xiao swung his sword, his proficiency with the sword technique would increase a little, and the power of the sword technique would become a little stronger.

With this ebb and flow, when Chen Xiao swung his hundredth sword, the Night Demon God finally couldn't hold on any longer.

"No more, no more! I surrender! You kid are simply an old monster! Are you perhaps some ancient immortal monster who has taken over this young man's body?"

Within the Night Demon Heavenly Canopy, which was originally filled with stars, there were now only a few sparse stars left, having been almost completely exhausted.

Chen Xiao also stopped swinging his sword, because he knew that as long as he swung one more sword, this Night Demon God would completely vanish into smoke. The remaining starlight was no longer sufficient to repair its body.

"Give me a reason not to kill you."

Chen Xiao said indifferently.

"I can tell you any secret you want to know. As you know, I have existed in this world for thousands of years, and I know so many secrets that even I can't remember them all."

The Night Demon God said, pretending to be wise and experienced.

"You better be as you say, otherwise, with one sword from me, your thousands of years of cultivation will be completely reduced to nothing."

Chen Xiao said quietly.

"Just ask, I will answer everything I know, and say everything I can."

The Night Demon God's eyes narrowed, and a few traces of fear appeared on its face.

"I ask you, why did the Emperor of Dongyang send Abe Buryo to station here? What is his purpose?"

Chen Xiao asked the first question, and the Night Demon God said directly, "Because under this land, there is a dragon vein. The Emperor believes that he does not yet have the ability to occupy it, so he sent Abe Buryo to watch over it. If anyone dares to touch it, he must report it to the Emperor in a timely manner... Eh? Wait, could it be that you already know?"

The Night Demon God suddenly realized halfway through his words that Chen Xiao was blatantly trying to acquire the entire Shanhai One product (Shan Hai Yi Pin), and combined with his powerful strength, it meant that he had probably already discovered the dragon vein here, and even put it to use.

Chen Xiao smiled slightly, which was considered a default.

The Night Demon God immediately felt that Abe Buryo was indeed the best of the best when it came to being useless. Not only did he not have any cultivation talent, but his brain was also not very good.

It would be better for the Emperor to send an Akita dog than him!

"Do you think you are qualified to ask me questions?"

"This lowly one wouldn’t dare..."

Chen Xiao glanced at the Night Demon God coldly, scaring the Night Demon God so much that he quickly lowered his head and referred to himself as a lowly one.

Then Chen Xiao asked again, "I ask you again, besides the Emperor, who else knows about this underground dragon vein?"

"As far as I know, only he knows. He is secretly developing his own power, accumulating strength, and trying to occupy this dragon vein for himself, but in my opinion, he is completely daydreaming."

"If he wants to occupy this dragon vein, he must first launch a war, but now Dongyang’s national strength is far behind that of China. If he launches a war, it is tantamount to his own destruction."

"Secondly, there are the forces he secretly cultivates, samurai, swordsmen, ninjas or onmyoji, but those people are just a rabble and are simply vulnerable. You alone, sir, can wipe them all out!"

The Night Demon God said with a flattering expression, and actually began to please Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao smiled disdainfully, "You call yourself a Demon God, but you slander your compatriots so much. I don’t think much of you either."

"Not so, not so, sir, I was not born in Dongyang. In fact, I am a genuine Chinese deity. It was only because of that disaster five hundred years ago that I traveled far to Dongyang, where I took root and was worshiped by that group of dwarves, enjoying their incense."

The Night Demon God shook his head and said.

"A Chinese deity? You? Stop trying to flatter yourself. You are just a mass of spiritual energy, and you dare to call yourself a deity?"

Chen Xiao snorted contemptuously.

"Uh, this... This lowly one's strength is indeed weak, but when I was first born, I was really a mountain god. If it wasn't for that disaster, I would still be guarding the mountain where I was born."

The Night Demon God said confidently.

"You keep mentioning disaster, what exactly is that disaster? Can you explain it to me clearly?"

Chen Xiao asked curiously.

"Huh? Sir, don't you know? Aren't you an ancient earth immortal who has taken over this young man's body?"

The Night Demon God asked curiously.

"Of course not, I am me, I have always been myself..."

Chen Xiao said impatiently, "Stop talking nonsense with me, quickly tell me, what exactly does that disaster mean?"
