Chapter 45: Killing Brightness with One Sword

It was night.

A bright moon hung in the sky, and the pure white moonlight scattered on the ground, covering it with a layer of silver frost.

In the Empyrean Sword Sect.

A figure dashed from the Eighth Summit and flew towards the Grand Myriad Mountains.

This person was Shen Ran.

After obtaining information about the Demon Cult disciples and a large number of Blood Cloud Powder in the Death Abyss during the day, he made his preparations.

Naturally, he would not pass up this opportunity, especially after knowing that taking the Blood Cloud Powder would increase one’s cultivation speed by 20 times,

He possessed the top-notch Ancient Desolate Sacred Body, Invincible Supreme Bones, Ancient Immortal Eyes, and a series of other monstrous physiques.

However, being too talented was sometimes a problem.

Now.

Every time he increased his strength, he needed a huge amount of resources!

Without the help of resources, it would take a long time before he could become a True Emperor Realm expert even if he had the highest aptitude.

Having restrained his aura, he flew quickly through the Grand Myriad Mountains.

This was because he had absorbed the Chaos Divine Fruit during the day and used the Azure Dragon Transformation of the Ancient Seven Transformations when he encountered tens of thousands of Enlightenment Realm ferocious beasts.

His majestic aura of a True Dragon suppressed an area of 10,000 miles, causing many ferocious beasts to escape.

As a result, he did not encounter the attacks of ferocious beasts along the way.

The journey was uneventful.

As he approached the center of the Grand Myriad Mountains, he realized that the surroundings were filled with turbulence and black gas.

If one was not careful, even a Divine Sea Realm disciple might die here.

As expected of the Abyss of Death, he thought.

It was rumored that the Abyss of Death was formed by several True Emperors fighting in the Grand Myriad Mountains tens of thousands of years ago.

This battle between the True Emperors was the battle of the demonic path.

Later on, a Demon Cult’s True Emperor died here, causing the ground to be corroded by his blood. Only then did a deep abyss appear.

Time passed, and although the True Emperor’s blood had long been exhausted, the remnant Law and Dao power sent a large amount of black fog out of the abyss.

This black gas was very corrosive.

Even a Divine Sea Realm cultivator who was not careful and inhaled it would find his cultivation regressing at best, or in serious cases, he would die on the spot!

Over time.

The Abyss of Death became a forbidden area in the Grand Myriad Mountains.

Of course.

To others, this black gas was a fatal threat.

However, Shen Ran, who had the Ancient Immortal Eyes, did not have to worry too much.

His eyes flickered as they pierced through the void and shattered everything under his feet.

He discovered all the places that would suddenly produce turbulence and black gas.

He passed through these places cautiously.

An hour later.

Shen Ran came upon a bottomless ravine. It looked as if some ancient ferocious beast would climb out of it.

I’m here finally!

Looking at the Abyss of Death in front of him, he activated his Immortal Eyes and looked up.

The next moment.

The Abyss of Death revealed its true appearance.

So.

In the sky above the Abyss, a mystic realm was formed because of the remaining Law and Dao power!

When the Demon Cult discovered this mystic realm, they made it their stronghold.

Firstly, this place was deep in the Grand Myriad Mountains.

It was very convenient to look for spiritual herbs and hunt ferocious beasts here.

Secondly, the Abyss of Death was very close to the Empyrean Sword Sect.

The most direct route between them was no more than 10,000 miles.

It could be said that it was under the nose of the Empyrean Sword Sect.

Shen Ran raised his hand and waved. In an instant, a spiritual light shot out and entered the void in front of him.

“Buzz buzz buzz!”

An ear-piercing sound came suddenly from the void.

Immediately, there was a cracking sound, as if a mirror had been broken.

A dark hole suddenly appeared in front of him.

This was because the violent break-in instantly alarmed the Demon Cult disciples in the Abyss of Death.

“Who is being impudent here!!”

Immediately.

A black light shot out of the dark hole.

The person was dressed in black and the pressure emitted by his aura was at the sixth level of the Divine Sea Realm!

When this Demon Cult disciple saw the uniform of the Empyrean Sword Sect that Shen Ran was wearing, his expression changed drastically!

He thought they had been discovered by the Empyrean Sword Sect.

However, when he spread out his divine sense and scanned an area of nearly a hundred miles, he did not find anyone from the Empyrean Sword Sect.

The Demon Cult disciple rushed over with a sword in hand.

“Kill!”

Seeing this, Shen Ran could not help but shake his head.

Without a word, he punched him.

“Boom!”

His physical body, which was comparable to the power of a True Dragon, immediately blasted this person’s torso into a bloody mist!

After killing this Demon Cult disciple guarding the door, Shen Ran did not restrain his aura and swaggered in.

“Who are you?!”

“Enemy attack!!!”

As soon as he walked in, the Demon Cult disciples rushed towards him.

“Kill!”

Shen Ran, who was at the second level of the Illumination Realm, remained calm when he was under the siege of more than a hundred of them.

With a punch, eight or nine Demon Cult disciples were shattered into pieces.

Not long after, more than a hundred Divine Sea Ream cultivators were instantly killed by Shen Ran.

By now Shen Ran had arrived at the bottom of the Abyss of Death.

The path behind him was filled with twisted corpses of the Demon Cult disciples.

By a rough estimate, he had killed more than a hundred Demon Cult disciples.

Basically, all the Divine Sea Realm Demon Cult disciples had been killed by him.

They were all insta-killed.

The death of more than a hundred disciples immediately attracted the attention of the two Illumination Realm cultivators who were guarding this place.

In an instant.

Two long beams of light flashed before Shen Ran.

When they saw the pile of corpses of the Demon Cult disciples behind him, their expressions turned dark and scary.

One of them, a middle-aged man with a fourth level Illumination Realm cultivation and a face full of strange totems, frowned in fury. “How dare you! This is not a place for you to be impudent!”

As he spoke, his third level of the Enlightenment Realm strength erupted.

The strange totems on his face glowed with black light, causing his skin to turn red and the dense spider web-like veins on his body to appear and throb.

Another Demon Cult cultivator at the second level of the Illumination Realm took out a black skeleton staff immediately.

“Noisy!”

Looking at the two of them, Shen Ran raised his hand, and the Emperor’s Heart appeared in his hand.

Then, with a light wave, a dazzling flash from his sword broke through the clouds. The sharp sword qi seemed to cut through the void.

He waited for the sword’s light to dissipate.

The two Demon Cult cultivators were instantly reduced to dust!
