Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws - Chapter 95
Chapter 95: The Demon Vow Sect Is Used As A Tool, Northern Lingdao Becomes Hell For Fools
Once the Chu Kuangren fan club spoke up, all doubt in the Azure Dragon Domain vanished. No one wanted to argue with three great sage orthodoxies, not even the Sacred Lands of Serene Wisdom or Zhiyang Valley.
Days after Chu Kuangren left the Dharma Sect, another piece of news shook the nation.
The Honorable Orthodoxy, Mountain River Sect, in Northern Lingdao prefecture had been destroyed!
Five thousand years ago, the Demon Vow Sect brought misfortune to the Azure Dragon Domain, and now they have risen once more!
A few sage orthodoxies could not sit still upon hearing this.
The Demon Vow Sect was an army created by the self-proclaimed Demon Vow Lord five thousand years ago. They had grown rapidly since their creation, but because they caused too much bloodshed, a few sage orthodoxies worked together and destroyed them.
Now that they have risen once more, the resurfacing memories of bloodshed worried a lot of people.
“Sigh, what the Demon Vow Sect did back then was horrifying. All of their members practiced demon magic. They had no morals and no consideration for the consequences of their actions. Who knows how many creatures they have poisoned into their bloody ways?”
“Indeed. I can still feel the lingering fear as we speak.”
“But didn’t they die? Most of the Sect’s followers died in battle, so how did they revive?”
“I heard that the Demonic Honorable came back to life.”
“Impossible!”
“Really! According to someone in Northern Lingdao, there was a young man who looked like the Demonic Honorable. He even used the Great Demon Vow Techniques from back in the day!”
While Gossip ran rampant in the Azure Dragon Domain, all the great sage orthodoxies made their moves by sending people to Northern Lingdao to gather information.
Two days later, these sage orthodoxies announced an operation to destroy the demon cultivators. They would dispatch people into Northern Lingdao and wipe the demon cultivators out.
In an instant, Northern Lingdao was bustling.
Chu Kuangren had also gotten Honorable Xuan Qi’s message, to hurry and join the demon hunt. With that, he accepted and headed towards Northern Lingdao.
…
“Seventh Forefather, was the Demon Vow Sect powerful back then?”
On the Fairy boat, Chu Kuangren asked out of curiosity.
He had read a few classical literatures with records of the Demon Vow Sect, and every line stated how horrifying they were.
“They actually weren’t that powerful.”
The answer came as a surprise to Chu Kuangren.
“Not powerful? Then why did several sages have to join forces to deal with it? The books also said that the sage orthodoxies worked together and fought the Demon Vow Sect for three days and three nights, which injured and killed thousands.”
“Heh.” The Seventh Forefather chuckled.
“In fact, the Demon Vow Sect is slightly weaker than the sage orthodoxies, but the only difference is that they made more noise about it. The sage orthodoxies did join forces, that is true, but it was just to boost their reputations.”
“What? To boost their reputations?”
“Yes. The Demon Vow Sect was indeed cruel and bloody; they enraged the people and threw their lives into misery. So by stepping in to eliminate evil, the sage orthodoxies could not only win the hearts of the people, but it also boosted their reputation and kept their luck going. Why would they want to let such an opportunity slip by them?”
“As for the books… History is often written by winners. By depicting the demons as a force that’s scarier than they actually are, the sage orthodoxies get to say that they are strong which will further boost their reputation.”
The Seventh Forefather’s words stunned Chu Kuangren.
That sh*t worked?
The sage orthodoxies used the Demon Vow Sect as a tool for their book, yet he thought they were powerful.
“So what you’re telling me is that the sage orthodoxies are using the Demon Hunt as another tactical ego boost?” Chu Kuangren stated blandly.
“That is true, but wanting to purge the demons is also true. They get to use this as training for their disciples,” the Seventh Forefather responded.
On the other end, Northern Lingdao was descending into chaos.
Due to all the rumors that spread, the Demon Sect disciples that had escaped the last time came out, once again, to cause trouble with all the demonic cultivators.
These cultivators were ruthlessly cruel. Sucking on human flesh and blood to cultivate their powers, catching people to feed their beasts, sacrificing human souls to enhance magical weapons… the list went on.
There were some who even purely enjoyed killing and causing havoc.
It was no exaggeration to say that Northern Lingdao was like hell on earth. The people’s lives there were full of sorrow and they mattered less than grass in the wind.
In a town not far off, cries rang throughout the skies where a few demon cultivators ordered their beasts around, wreaking havoc.
“Roar!” One beast opened its bloody jaws and chomped down one of the people there. The person did not even have the time to scream before getting torn in half, guts spilling out in a pool of blood.
Nearby, a child cried their heart out, but the demon cultivators grinned.
“Haha! Without the Mountain River Sect around, the whole of Northern Lingdao is ours to do as we please!”
One of the demon cultivators sat on their beast and grinned.
The Mountain River Sect was the sage orthodoxy that ruled over Northern Lingdao, but they were destroyed a few days ago.
According to rumors, the Supreme Demonic Honorable had personally brought them over too and that would explain why the demon cultivators dared to act so boldly.
“To be honest, I don’t really care for the Demonic Honorable. But since he destroyed Mountain River Sect and gave us this playground, I’m willing to call him my lord!” another new cultivator said.
Then, a few others nodded in agreement.
“Listen to all those beautiful cries of agony. This is music to my ears! Cry, scream! You’re worth nothing more than to serve as our entertainment!”
The demon cultivator said in joy as he rode on his beast.
Swoosh!
Instantly, a sword ray swept through them from a distance before it locked onto the demon cultivator and his beast.
The sword ray was so unbelievably sharp that it tore both the beast and its master to shreds.
“Who was that?!”
“D*mn it, show yourself!”
The remaining demon cultivators’ faces fell. They then looked in the direction of the sword ray and saw a white-robed young man walking over from the end of the street.
The slender young man wore an immaculate wide-sleeved white robe, and his aura made him seem like a god, but his face was as cold as ice.
“Oh god, please save us!”
“God, please have mercy on us!”
The people on the street fell to their knees and with hope in their eyes, they begged for the young man to help.
However, the demon cultivators’ eyes were filled with hate when they saw this. They ordered their beasts to attack the young man.
“Go to hell!”
“Tear him to pieces!”
The beasts had a terrifying aura, and the ground shook with every step they took. Compared to the beasts, the young man looked as thin and insignificant as a twig.
Despite that, the young man’s face remained unchanged as he continued to walk toward the Demon Vow Sect disciples. Several purple sword rays then burst from his body and in one swift move, the beasts were beheaded.
“This is bad! He must be a cultivator from the Nascent Soul Realm. Run!”
“We’re no match for him!”
Without saying anything more, the demon cultivators attempted to flee, but as soon as they took a step forward, their back legs were caught in the void.
They were stuck.
At that moment, their pupils shrank and their faces filled with horror. “This is the spatial force! He isn’t from the Nascent Soul Realm, he’s from the Paradise Realm!”
