Chapter 357: Chapter 192: Beneath a Single Arrow, Divine-Demons Bow
This time, he had come to the Human Ancestral Land for two reasons. One was to ask for help.
The other, in truth, was to see if Wang Xiao was even in the Human Ancestral Land!
After all, after Wang Xiao killed the Six-winged Divine Race’s Siming Kang with a single arrow all those years ago, he had completely vanished without a trace.
He wasn’t sure if Wang Xiao was still staying in the Human Ancestral Land.
Wang Xiao calmly accepted the bow before helping Lin AhSan up.
"Lin Xiaoyou, you’ve achieved what you have today through your own efforts. I merely pointed you down a path. Speaking of which, how are Wenren Hu and his sister doing?"
Lin AhSan replied,
"They’re both serving in the Demon-slaying Bureau. The last time I saw them was thirty years ago, so I’m not sure how they’re doing now."
"However, thirty years ago, Wenren Hu caught the eye of the Demon-slaying Bureau’s Director and was taken in as a Personal Guard. With a Celestial Venerable protecting him, I imagine there won’t be any problems."
Wang Xiao nodded slightly.
"In this mortal world, everyone has their own destiny. Heh, I just heard you say you’re going to eliminate some demons. I’m free at the moment, so I don’t mind accompanying you."
He happened to want to test the power of a new Divine Technique he had comprehended, the Celestial Will Unity Arrow. These descendants of the Demon Race would make for perfect practice.
Speaking of which, since arriving in this world, he had never once seen a descendant of the Demon Race.
He was rather curious to see for himself what the difference was between the Demon Race and the Divine Race.
Lin AhSan’s eyes lit up slightly.
"If Senior is willing to take action, that would be for the best."
He had heard of Wang Xiao’s legendary deeds.
A hundred years ago, he was already capable of suppressing the Venerables and Celestial Venerables from the major Holy Lands.
Thirty years ago, he had even killed the Six-winged Divine Race’s Siming Kang with a single arrow.
With that kind of power, killing a Five-winged Demon Race member would be child’s play.
"Go inform your men. The two of us will be enough. Have them stay here," Wang Xiao said.
Lin AhSan nodded, took out a few Talismans from his robes, and infused them with his Divine Thought.
The Talismans quickly burned up and vanished into the Void.
Lin AhSan then said,
"Senior, it is done."
Wang Xiao nodded slightly.
"Mm, let’s go."
Just then, Gongsun Yan spoke up.
"Fellow Daoist Wang, after you’ve finished killing the demons, please return. I have something to discuss with you."
Wang Xiao glanced at Gongsun Yan, his heart stirring.
He had a feeling that Gongsun Yan, nine times out of ten, wanted to talk to him about the Celestial Observation Cauldron.
He nodded and said,
"Alright."
Without lingering any longer, Wang Xiao tore open the Void in an instant, taking Lin AhSan with him as he teleported away.
「On the way.」
Lin AhSan spoke up,
"Senior, have you been spreading Martial Arts these past few years?"
Wang Xiao said coolly,
"I only passed it to Elder Gongsun. In the past thirty years, he should have spread my Martial Arts throughout the Human Ancestral Land."
He also knew that although Gongsun Yan was only spreading Martial Arts within the Human Ancestral Land, the Ancestral Land frequently had contact with the outside world.
These Martial Arts had probably long since spread beyond its borders.
Of course, this didn’t have much of an impact on Wang Xiao.
When he had first passed the Technique to Gongsun Yan, it was only to gain his trust.
Lin AhSan pursed his lips.
"The Divine Race, I’m afraid, won’t want Senior’s Martial Arts to spread throughout the world. They will definitely find a way to suppress it."
"Perhaps the Divine Race will launch an attack on the Human Ancestral Land soon."
Hearing this, Wang Xiao wasn’t too surprised. Instead, he asked,
"Speaking of which, thirty years ago, I killed that Siming Kang with a single arrow, yet the Divine Race had no reaction whatsoever. Do you know why?!"
Logically speaking, Siming Kang was considered an elite among the Divine Race, ranked eighth in the lineage of their descendants.
For an elite like him to die just like that, and for the Divine Race to have no reaction, was rather unusual.
"That... is most likely related to the Human Ancestral Land in Dongzhou. Rumor has it that thirty years ago, in that Human Ancestral Land, the Elder passed away. Descendants of the Demon Race took advantage of the weakness, going on a killing spree. The new Elder had not yet gained full control of their Celestial Observation Cauldron."
"The two sides have been locked in a protracted war. The Divine Race descendants from Ye State, worried that the Demon Race would seize the Celestial Observation Cauldron, also rushed over."
"For the time being, they probably don’t have the capacity to worry about the Human Ancestral Land here in Ye State!" Lin AhSan explained.
’So that’s how it is.’
Wang Xiao’s eyes flickered.
He knew that in the current world, aside from the Human Ancestral Land in Ye State, there was another Human Ancestral Land that also controlled a fragment of the Celestial Observation Cauldron!
’It seems the other Human Ancestral Land helped take some of the heat off us.’
’I just wonder if that Human Ancestral Land can withstand a pincer attack from the Divine-Demon Races.’
"Senior, we’re almost there. It’s that volcano to the southeast."
Just then, Lin AhSan sent a message via Divine Thought.
Wang Xiao raised his eyes to look.
Thousands of miles in the distance, a volcano was spewing thick black smoke.
Figures resembling human men and women, with wings on their backs and horns on their heads, were circling the volcano, emitting bursts of black light.
They were holding humans in their hands, tossing them into the volcano.
In just a few moments, perhaps tens of thousands of humans had been thrown inside!
"These bastards! They deserve to die!"
Lin AhSan roared in fury, stepping out of the Void in an instant. He leaped thousands of miles, his long saber unleashing an ocean of cold light as he slashed down at the group of Demon Race descendants!
The strongest among these two-winged members of the Demon Race was only at the Limit Breaking Realm; naturally, they were no match for Lin AhSan.
In the blink of an eye, they were all slain by his single strike!
His Saber Technique was incredibly exquisite. While slaughtering the Demon Race descendants, he managed not to harm a single one of the humans they had captured.
With a gentle wave of his hand, he sent the group of humans dozens of miles away.
Seeing this, Wang Xiao sent the group of humans even further, to a city tens of thousands of miles away.
His mastery of Space was now completely thorough.
Moving a few ordinary people was, of course, a trivial matter for him.
"How dare you! You dare disturb my king’s meal! Human, you’re courting death!"
Just then, two demons with four wings, antennae on their heads, and holding Yaksha tridents, suddenly flew out of the volcano.
Their bodies blazed with intense black light, exuding a frenzied, murderous aura as they charged violently toward Lin AhSan!
These two members of the Demon Race possessed the strength of a Venerable among the Human Race, and they began a frantic battle with Lin AhSan.
Lin AhSan’s progress over the years had been truly significant.
Fighting against two Demon Race Venerables by himself, he didn’t fall into a disadvantage for a time.
CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!
The piercing saber light was filled with a crazed killing intent, and waves of deathly energy began to spread!
Each time it struck the two Demon Race Venerables, a bit of the black light on their bodies would dissipate.
Just as it seemed Lin AhSan was about to gradually gain the upper hand...
RUMBLE—
A thunderous tremor suddenly erupted from within the volcano.
Immediately after, endless lava spewed forth, carrying with it a dense aura of blood!
It dyed the lava completely red!
This blood aura rose up and condensed in mid-air, forming a blood-red eye.
Within this eye, there was no expression to be seen, only slaughter and bloodlust.
"Human, what fine essence blood. Since you let my meal escape, you can take its place!"
The moment the voice sounded, the eye suddenly shot out a ray of blood-red light, dyeing the entire world crimson.
A thick, bloody stench filled the air.
The Void for thousands of miles around seemed to have instantly turned into Hell!
At that moment, Ao Guang and the other members of the Demon Race trapped in Wang Xiao’s Grotto Heaven felt this powerful aura, and their bodies trembled violently.
"It’s... It’s Blood Demon Montis! Wh-why is he here?!"
"That guy is even more bloodthirsty than the average member of the Demon Race! Every so often, he devours hundreds of thousands of members from the Human and Demon Races as a nutritional supplement!"
"L-Lord Wang, this guy is ranked third in the lineage of Demon Race descendants! He’s far more powerful than Siming Kang! We should get out of here, quickly!"
Ao Guang and the other members of the Demon Race had been trapped in the Grotto Heaven for years and had long since lost their former arrogance!
Just as they finished speaking,
WENG!
The blood-red eye seemed to emit an infinite suction force.
Lin AhSan had no power to resist at all and was about to be sucked into the eye!
’Is that so? I hope he doesn’t disappoint me!’
Wang Xiao’s expression remained unchanged. A Tai Chi Diagram suddenly formed beneath his feet, slowly beginning to rotate.
It seemed to transform into the shape of a Crossbow.
The vital energy and Divine Will around his body condensed frantically, forming a golden arrow.
Within the arrow, an endless Dao Charm flowed unpredictably.
It was nocked on the curved line in the center of the Tai Chi Diagram!
TWANG!
With a sharp, resonant snap, the blood-red light filling Heaven and Earth was instantly torn apart.
In that instant, it was as if everything else had vanished.
Only a single arrow remained, soaring into the sky.
