Supreme of the Heavenly Realm-Chapter 721 - 715 Demon Spirit

"These swamp monsters have a weakness just like humans, right at the heart where there is a Life Crystal. Break the Life Crystal, and you can kill them."

Yin Meng told the team.

Such a huge monster, living in this swamp, indeed proved troublesome to handle, but with knowledge of their weakness, it was much easier.

Splash!

When Ye Xuan passed by a swamp, the mud beneath his feet burst open, and a swamp monster madly charged at him, splashing him with mud.

Crack!

However, Ye Xuan’s sword was incredibly precise and pierced directly into the swamp monster’s chest. A crisp sound instantly came from within the monster’s body—the sound of the Life Crystal being shattered.

As soon as the sound ceased, the swamp monster’s body turned soft and dissolved into a puddle of muddy water.

These swamp monsters, like the prior Tree-man, yielded only ten points per kill.

"We need to get out of here quickly; this spot is not great for collecting points anyway."

These swamp monsters were much tougher than the Tree-man, yielding only ten points each. It was a great toil with little reward, something nobody was keen on doing.

After linger for two or three days in the swamp, the group finally made a discovery.

"Up ahead, there’s an exit leading underground."

Suddenly, at this moment, a Saint’s voice was heard ahead.

"Underground?"

Everyone was momentarily stunned, considering they were supposed to be ascending the Martial God Mountain. It felt as though they were moving farther away from their goal instead.

"Don’t worry about these details. As long as you reach the required score, you can be directly transported to the summit of Martial God Mountain. The key lies in the score, not how far you are from the top of Martial God Mountain."

Then, Yin Meng’s voice came over as well.

"So, that’s how it is,"

Ye Xuan nodded in realization. If they really had to find their own way up the mountain, it indeed seemed quite challenging. Martial God Mountain was divided into individual areas that were each daunting to overcome.

Without hesitation, one by one, they entered the cavern.

The cavern indeed led underground. While flying through, gusts of cold wind blew upward from the depths.

What met their eyes was a dim underground world. Looking up, the black soil was sharp as a blade, only several hundreds of meters from the ground. The spot where they appeared was a cliff, high above, looking forward revealed a stretch of primeval forest, and several deathly silent rivers crisscrossing like ropes, with countless tributaries.

The trees were very sparse, but the area was filled with numerous rugged rocks with bizarre appearances. Despite appearing quiet, they emitted a very peculiar aura.

Ah!

They had just landed here when, not far away in the primeval stone forest, a sudden scream rang out, and immediately after, several figures dashed out of the forest like frightened birds.

"What happened to these people? Why are they so panicked?"

Yin Meng furrowed her brow. Although she was experienced and strong, the unpredictable dangers of this place meant she couldn’t guarantee her own safety without taking extra precautions.

"It’s Stone-men and Cannibal Vines."

Ye Xuan’s gaze penetrated the jungle. With the enhancement of his soul power, he saw two types of creatures: Stone-men and ancient Cannibal Vines.

"Let’s take a detour."

To avoid trouble, Yin Meng chose to bypass the area through another region. Since the jungle was nearly two hundred meters tall, and less than a hundred meters from the top, the top featured oddly shaped black rocks. Some resembled stalactites, hanging down into the depths of the jungle; others looked like massive teeth, spreading everywhere, layered and soaring above the jungle. They had to avoid not only the extended black hard rocks but also the dangerous creatures hidden in the dark.

"Why do I feel that it’s even more dangerous here?"

As soon as Ye Xuan entered the area, he felt a chill in his bones, and even the wind carried a sinister fluctuation.

He had barely spoken when the surrounding black currents suddenly surged, congregating in front of the group and transforming into a six-armed demon shadow. Its size resembled a small hill as it charged towards them.

"It’s a Demon Spirit."

Ye Xuan’s pupils constricted. In Martial God Mountain, the unique environment allowed even the plants to become spirits. These dark Demonic Qi hidden deep underground could also give birth to spiritual beings, and that’s what Demon Spirits were.

Demon Spirits were not of the Demon Clan, but they were derived from Demonic Qi. freewēbnoveℓ.com

"Be careful!"

Yin Meng shouted sharply, warning everyone, but she was still a step too late. The Demon Spirit was incredibly fast. With a flash of bewitching light, it plunged into the crowd. Its razor-sharp claws pierced through space, tearing a weaker disciple of the Heavenly Martial Holy Land in half.

Ye Xuan’s pupils constricted. The combat power of this Demon Spirit was beyond his imagination. It might be as strong as the Tree-man King, or even stronger. His True Yuan circulated to its utmost limit, his blood nearly igniting. Finally, along his right arm, it converged on the Rain Saint Sword. The sword emitted a crystal-clear jade-like sword light and he slashed at an angle.

Bang!

The Demon Spirit’s palm collided with the Rain Saint Sword, the space trembling and cracking open several dark rifts, which then broke apart. Under the force of this shattered space, the Rain Saint Sword in Ye Xuan’s hand bent into a sharp curve and then violently rebounded, shooting Ye Xuan three or four miles away.

Simultaneously, a terrifying ripple spread across the open ground between them, scraping off layer after layer of the ground, reaching dozens of meters deep.

"So strong!"

Ye Xuan couldn’t help but exclaim. His sword was strong enough to defeat the Tree-man King, yet it was blocked here by the Demon Spirit, and even sent him flying. The power of this Demon Spirit was extraordinarily great.

Swoosh!

After a brief pause in the air, the Demon Spirit seemed to have fixated on Ye Xuan and lunged again, distorting the space along its path in a confusing manner.

Moving back, Ye Xuan dodged the chilly Demonic Qi light. His body unharmed, he lightly stepped on the ground and leaped up. The Rain Saint Sword in his hand burst out with a hundred dots of cold starlight. His hand speed reached its limit, his senses maximized, directing each sword strike towards the weaknesses of the Demon Spirit.

Roar!

The Demon Spirit roared. Crash into the dense cold stars. The next moment, its massive body was riddled with flat sword holes. The sword holes burst open, becoming the size of fists, and the body paused in mid-air, stiffening.

"Suspended Sword Wave!"

At that moment, Yin Meng also drew her sword and struck. The Demon Spirit showed vulnerability, making it the perfect time to crush it.

Yin Meng’s sword moves always seemed silent, lacking power, but that was not the case. This strike, as if seeping into the space, transformed into a circle of ripples, highly penetrative.
