Chapter 589: Chapter 413: Has a Sword Opened up a Sanctuary of Sword Dao?_2
“Ah!”
“My leg…”
“Bastard, how dare you hurt me. You’re seeking death, do you know that?”
“Ding!”
“Netherworld Demon has been frightened. Merit value +100,000, sword skill +1.”
Bang!
Crack!
Xu Yang spoke no word. An arc of a sly smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Swift as the wind, ruthless as the thunder, he crushed the left leg of the Netherworld Demon again.
“No!”
“Damn it!”
“Human, stop… stop! I am a Padon of the Asura Realm, a royalty among the Netherworld, I can provide you with extraordinary power and wealth!”
“Ding!”
“Netherworld Demon has been frightened. Merit value +100,000, sword skill +1.”
The system prompt in his mind made the smile on Xu Yang’s face grow even wider.
He glanced at the wailing Netherworld Demon and flashed a genuine smirk…that looked incredibly sinister and terrifying in the eyes of the Netherworld Demon!
“Ding!”
“Netherworld Demon has been frightened. Merit value +100,000, sword skill +1.”
“Ding!”
“Netherworld Demon has been frightened. Merit value +100,000, sword skill +1.”
“Ding…”
Then, there was a series of system prompts!
This caused Xu Yang’s smirk to spread all over his face. He let out a hearty laugh and smashed his hammer down again.
Throughout, he didn’t utter a word, but inch by inch, pulverized the legs of the Netherworld Demon. The Netherworld Demon tried to resist, but Xu Yang kicked it down. He slapped a “Suppress Evil and Break Malevolent Energies Talisman” on the demon’s forehead!
Hum!
The power of the Daoist Talisman erupted, completely suppressing the Netherworld Demon!
This Netherworld Demon was a master of the “Asura Realm,” who could match the power of the Immortal Beings. If it were at its peak, a single “Suppress Evil and Break Malevolent Energies Talisman” wouldn’t be enough for suppressing it.
But now, this Netherworld Demon was gravely injured, its power all but gone. The “Suppress Evil and Break Malevolent Energies Talisman” drawn by Xu Yang himself was easily able to suppress it.
Xu Yang didn’t use any special methods, just hammered ruthlessly on the Netherworld Demon.
The sensations of despair and helpless terror were magnified in its heart over and over again!
Seeing death approach step by step, yet unable to resist…
It made the Netherworld Demon no longer daring to be arrogant, it opened its mouth and began to beg for mercy.
“Human…”
“No, master, grant me mercy!”
“Spare me… I am willing to tell you all about our Netherworld Demon Clan’s arrangements in the human world… The Netherworld Demon Clan has altogether in the human world…”
Boom!
Suddenly, a terrifying power erupted inside the Netherworld Demon.
Xu Yang’s face changed slightly, and he moved a hundred meters away in a flash.
However, the power didn’t explode but transformed into a wisp of black demon flame. The black demon flame instantly engulfed the Netherworld Demon’s entire body, burning it to ashes.
Xu Yang: “…”
Damn!
Xu Yang was stunned!
Anger surged in his heart. He cursed, “Motherfucker, these Netherworld Demons are truly cunning… They even have such a self-destructive measure? It looks like in the future, apart from suppressing them to prevent suicide, I’ll also have to make them mute when capturing Netherworld Demons!”
Although Xu Yang had never seen such a measure before, he had a rough guess…
It was probably a divine power implanted in these Netherworld Demons by the mighty Netherworld Demon Clan, intended to prevent these demons from being captured and revealing the secrets of the demon clan.
He glanced at the system property panel.
The number after the “Merit Value” had once again exceeded the mark of 20 million.
“I previously consumed 9 million merits in cultivation and was only left with a little over 19 million… I’ve earned nearly two million merits from this creature. It’s not bad.”
“Unfortunately, in the end, it was burnt to death by the divine power within its own body and was not counted as my kill.”
Of course.
Aside from the boon of merit values tonight, there was also the increase in “sword skill”.
As a Netherworld Demon of the “Asura Realm” that was comparable to an immortal, his understanding of swordsmanship was far superior to Xu Yang, who had already reached the level of “immortal”!
Each and every increase of “Sword Skill +1” gave Xu Yang a new understanding of his own swordsmanship.
He immediately sat cross-legged, beginning to comprehend the essence of the sword.
Gradually, the sword aura around him burgeoned, creating a sword aura storm ten steps around him, with Xu Yang at its center.
From Xu Yang, an extremely profound mood erupted.
He…
Had another epiphany!
Soon.
Daybreak came.
The red sun jumped out of the eastern mountains, a beam of dazzling sunlight shining on Xu Yang’s face.
Xu Yang slowly opened his eyes.
In his eyes, it seemed like a sword was breathing in and out.
He stood up, used his hand as a sword, gently swept it forward!
Zing!
A sword aura, ten thousand meters long, suddenly shot out, splitting Mount Luo in two!
Xu Yang was jolted out of his epiphany, looking down only to see Mount Luo neatly split by a grand canyon. He turned black, and said speechlessly, “Damn… Fortunately, there’s no one around, no one saw it. Does this count as harming the environment?”
He initially planned to use his divine power and restore the grand canyon.
But after thinking for a moment, he stopped.
“This sword was cut out by me during an epiphany. It embodies my understanding of and insights into the sword. The sword intents linger in the Sword Aura Grand Canyon, and might take decades to dissipate fully. Ordinary humans who dare to enter the grand canyon will undoubtedly die!”
“But if a swordsman expert could use my residual sword aura and sword intent to hone themselves, it would elevate their understanding and comprehension of the essence of the sword… They might even have a chance to grasp the Great River sword aura!”
