Translator:?_Tat_??Editor:?Rundi

In mid-air, the demon made its move. With the slam of its hand, the surrounding area quaked!

One hit!

Merely one hit ended the lives of more than ten powerhouses! How dominating was this?!

The expression of all the spiritual beings drastically changed as they all shifted their gaze towards the tall silhouette. Their faces were dense with awe.

Especially after they felt the violent and devious prowess, the fear they held within reached its extreme. Their entire bodies were shaking uncontrollably.

The original level!

At this moment, these words flashed across every single spiritual being’s brain. Though these were simple words, they represented a level of powerfulness that was undefeatable!

Even though they were all very capable themselves and had no enemies that posed a threat amongst the completion level, in the eyes of the original level, they were weaker than ants. Even though it will take a little more than a flick of the finger for the original level to kill the completion leveled beings, it wouldn’t take much more.

Using what just happened as an example, the demon merely made one move and instantly killed more than ten powerhouses. This alone was enough to prove the terror of the original powerhouses. Against the completion leveled cultivators, it doesn’t take much to completely dominate them!

What a terrifying person!

All the cultivators at the scene gulped. Every single spiritual being stared at the demon with utter astonishment in their eyes. It was as if they fell into hell – cold and painful.

They never expected that someone as aggressive as the demon would suddenly appear!

Luckily, these people were not aware of the demon’s true capabilities. If they knew, they would be petrified from fear by now.

This demon was a powerhouse who was born thousands of years ago. In reality, his capabilities have far surpassed the original level. He actually has reached the shocking fifth level of Taoism!

However, because of the seal placed on him by the Demon Defending Monument, his cultivation has been dropping little by little. Plus, because Ling Xian used the liquidation process on him, the demon’s cultivation greatly digressed back to the original level.

However, even after all this, to fight against the spiritual beings before him, it wouldn’t take much. A few moves will end all of them.

Therefore, the first move the demon made sent a chill down everyone’s spine!

Gaze after gaze was focused on the demon. Every single being here was shivering with fear. Their original arrogance and disdain were frozen on their faces.

Especially after seeing the demon step back behind Ling Xian and the glare he had in his eyes, their fear increased in intensity. Because the demon was acting as if he was Ling Xian’s servant.

A violent original level cultivator who just killed more than ten powerhouses with the flick of the finger stepped back behind Ling Xian like a servant?

My god, have I gone blind?!

Everyone gaped at this with their mouths hung open. Their brains went blank, and they completely lost their ability to think.

Or, in other words, what was happening had surpassed their comprehension. They no longer knew how to think.

How prideful were original leveled cultivators? In the entire world, they were important figures others respected, why would they ever be other people’s servants?

Impossible!

In the entire Yunzhou, even the descendants of the ten dynasties and nine Clans, couldn’t make an original leveled cultivator do this!

Yet before their eyes, a terrifying original leveled cultivator was looking down onto the ground and stepping behind Ling Xian. He was acting like he was the servant!

Without a doubt, the impact of his actions was hard to describe. To put it simply, this turn of events has petrified everyone here. With their minds blank, everyone was astounded and utterly shocked.

Who… just who is this young man?

Feeling the coldness washing over their bodies, all eyes were on Ling Xian. They were finding him more and more profound.

“To have immediately killed more than ten cultivators… it is no wonder he is a powerhouse born thousands of years ago.” Ling Xian complimented, very impressed at what the demon had done.

Even before these spiritual beings revealed their killer’s intent, Ling Xian had already communicated with the demon. As repayment for freedom, the demon has agreed to help Ling Xian. However, because there were too many innocent lives in the Valley of the Falling Moon, Ling Xian chose to find a more secluded place and lured these spiritual beings here instead.

Before their eyes, the demon killed more than ten powerhouses right away. Naturally, Ling Xian was satisfied at this and felt that this trade was a fair one.

“You’re flattering me.”

The demon’s expression was emotionless. There was no joy nor anger. However, deep within his eyes, there was 70 percent fear and 30 percent helplessness.

He was a powerhouse who once dominated the world, when has he ever listened to others’ orders? However, the liquidation process of the Demon Defending Monument was far too horrifying. It had cast a shadow on him even now.

Therefore, he had to choose to agree to Ling Xian’s requests. He had to listen to Ling Xian like a servant.

“That’s right. If you can repay me with three favors, then I will give you back your freedom.”

Now that the demon had erased all of the arrogance off its face, Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction. He shifted his gaze towards the foreign beings and said, “Everyone, I wonder how you feel about this helper of mine?”

No responses.

For one, everyone here was already petrified by what happened. All they knew now was to stare dumbly and nobody was thinking anymore. For two, isn’t that the stupidest question ever?

If an original leveled cultivator isn’t scary, then what kind of powerhouse would be?!

Seeing this, Ling Xian shook his head with a chuckle. “Sometimes, the identity of the predator switches with the prey. It’s that simple.”

This statement was completely true. At first, he was the prey and the foreign beings were predators. The two of them were like a lion and a rabbit, the gap between them was huge.

However, after the demon showed himself, the two identities completely switched.

Ling Xian became the predator, and the foreign beings became preys. One side became the clouds, and the other became the mud, the two parties cannot be mixed or compared.

“Yes, our roles have switched. It’s that simple.”

The foreign beings all had a bitter look on their faces. They really didn’t think that after a mere minute, they would lose their edge as the predator and turn into preys.

Preys who had no way out!

Against an original leveled powerhouse, they didn’t think they had the ability to escape.

Even though every single one of them was very powerful, before the original leveled cultivator, what were they?

“By now, I think you have realized who is truly the stupid one.” Ling Xian’s expression was calm. He glared at the scared witless spiritual beings and felt no pity for them.

If he were against a powerful enemy that he knew he could not defeat, he would choose to escape. If escape was not an alternative, then he would choose to dim his own light, and end his own life shining.

Yet the spiritual beings before him were acting as if they lost their souls and their willpower to fight.

Therefore, Ling Xian felt too lazy to waste any more time. He made his order clear to the demon.

“Make your move. Don’t leave a single one of them behind.”

At his words, all the spiritual beings lost their composure, and pure fear flooded their hearts.

“Run!”

Nobody knows who shouted out loud. But many spiritual beings made their moves and dashed in the opposite direction. Their amazing speed was similar to the speed of the wind – almost unbelievable.

It was obvious that they were now scared gutless. All they could remember now is to escape, and they have left all courage to fight against the demon.

Pity, no matter how fast they are, they cannot outrun this original leveled demon!

BOOOM!

The demon attacked with a look of enjoyment in his eyes. He has been trapped for thousands of years, and he was just tortured by Ling Xian. For thousands of years, he had been furious.

Therefore, he decided to unleash his anger on these foreign beings.

“Die!”

Preparation of the Qi, the swing of the body, and the release of the Qi – the demon completed his attack in one go. In the blink of an eye, a powerhouse died.

Then, he began his rampage. After merely a minute, there were no living beings in sight.

Nobody escaped; they were all killed by him.

Not a single one managed to escape.
