Fang Han had known that following Fang Qing Xue into the Underground Abyss to train would be very dangerous. However, he hadnât expected the abyss to be so ferocious.
The army of demons beneath the towering âDemon G.o.dâs Altarâ in the distance was able to raze cities and ruin countries. Made of thousands upon ten thousands of âYashaâ, as well as the âFlying Yashaâ in the sky, even pract.i.tioners who had broken into the âDivine Realmâ would choke with terror, unable to prevent losing their deaths on the spot.
Killing a group of twelve âYashaâ had almost caused Fang Han to become exhausted to the point where his breathing was out of rhythm. If not for his sudden breakthrough to the âConnected with Spiritâ level, the incomparable sharpness of his âDevil Beheading Swordâ, his impervious magic clothes, he would have also sustained injuries.
However, in front of him were thousands of âYashaâ.
More importantly, there were âFlying Yashaâ. Even a single âFlying Yashaâ was very hard to kill, unless he decided to use his flying sword. However, even if he used his flying sword, against so many Demons, he would still be ripped to pieces, unable to kill them as fast as they came.
Calculating in his mind, he concluded that if more than two hundred âYashaâ surrounded him, there would be nothing left of him, his body would be sliced apart and his bones would be broken.
Should I hide, or should I just observe the âDemon G.o.dâs Altarâ from afar muttered Fang Han in his heart. The âDemon G.o.dâs Altarâ towered over, even taller than the largest building of the Longâyuan Province, the âFu Long Towerâ. Atop the altar, numerous numbers of large blood-red stones were displayed. Amidst the rocks was a seven to eight person tall sculpture of a Demon. The statueâs eyes seemed to sweep across the entire plain, emanating a powerful pressure and an eerily mysterious qi. It caused even the depths of oneâs soul to feel terrified.
Underneath this âDemon G.o.d Statueâ stood a few humans cloaked in shadows. Amongst them, there was one wrapped within wolf smoke. It was âSky Wolf Little Masterâ, w.a.n.g Moâlin. There also seemed to be a woman amongst the others.
However, the most striking one was a human, yet not human, Demon. This Demon had a peerlessly beautiful face, seemingly a very young person. However, in his lower half, he had the body of a âFlying Yashaâ, two wings growing out of his back. Other than his head, the rest of his body was immensely huge, making him seem as if he was wearing a helmet that didnât fit.
The head of a human, but the body of a âFlying Yashaâ.
Whether âYashaâ or âFlying Yashaâ, they were all very fierce, and clearly not human.
[TL: Weird sentence, couldnât figure out the authorâs meaning here]
With just a glance, Fang Han could tell that this was a âShuraâ, a âShuraâ which commanded a very high status in amongst the âUnderground Demonsâ. Above the âShuraâ was a âGreat Shuraâ, and above a âGreat Shuraâ was only âDevil Emperorsâ!
The âShuraâs status in the âUnderground Abyssâ was equivalent to that of true disciples.
âGreat Shurasâ were the equivalent of elders.
âDevil Emperorsâ were the equivalent of the school master.
Because âShuraâs had human heads, they were highly intelligent. Their training speed was very fast.
Advancing another step and reaching âGreat Shuraâ, then the scales which covered their bodies would deteriorate and they would truly become humanoid, gaining the same skills as âDivine Realmâ pract.i.tioners.
This was all described in detail within âThe Worldâ so that Yuâhua School disciples would have the necessary knowledge in case they had to face these atrocious Demons.
âPerhaps these people are the few that the Yuâhua School wanted to kill? I have killed the âPink Princeâ already, as for the others, âSky Wolf Little Masterâ is here, and there is a âPure Fox She-Devilâ, a Devil General, and a âShuraâ. I am clearly not their opponents. Perhaps I should hide after all.
Fang Han figured out a plan in his heart.
There is no need to hide, the Demon and Devil army has already detected us.
An icy cold voice was conveyed to the depths of his heart. Yan. Fang Han realized Fang Qing Xueâs whole body had suddenly began letting off powerful purple light, streaks of electric current beginning to flow around her. Lightning crashed, the âYin Yang Purple Lightningâ letting out sharp crackling sounds.
[TL: Yan is the dragon, in case you donât remember cause I update so slowly]
The strong sound, light, current, lightning, and matchless qi shocked the entire Demon and Devil army. It was powerful enough that even those on the âDemon G.o.dâs Altarâ over ten li away could see it very clearly.
From atop the âDemon G.o.dâs Altarâ, a fine light suddenly shot out, revealing a few li around the ground on which Fang Han was standing on, surrounding him with s.h.i.+ning fibers of light. Standing dead center amid these lights was Fang Han, causing the army to notice him.
It also exposed his location.
âc.r.a.p, you, Fang Qing Xue are immeasurably powerful in the âDivine Realmâ, but I, Fang Han, am weak. Are you trying to have me killed? You are helping me train, but this is not the way to train. Begging for life in death?â
Although Fang Han was shocked in his heart and felt the danger which had befallen him, he didnât move, the magic sword stuck in the ground so that it separated the two sides of his face. He sat like Buddha and meditated, entering a zen-like state.
Faced with a flooding army, Fang Han had become as peaceful as a child which had fallen asleep.
This caused Fang Qing Xueâs heart to slightly waver. Suspended in midair, her eyes flashed a strange light, her face showing an unnoticeable trace of admiration.
Staying controlled in face of danger, when a great calamity was within oneâs eyes, to the point of being calm and composed; one needed to know that this kind of spirit was something that couldnât be gained from training and eating pills. This relied on oneâs own potential, their own roots.
âNot bad, he has some signs of an expert. Exposing one to more danger will cause them to draw out and further enhance their inner potential. No matter which expert, they have all gone through countless life and death experiences. Only then are they able to temper their spirit to be like a sharp knife. If today, you are able to survive amid death, this will greatly help your cultivation, an immeasurable jump.â
Fang Qing Xueâs voice once again appeared in Fang Hanâs ears, but Fang Han remained motionless, waiting for the arrival of the army.
âFang Qing Xue! You dare to come to the bottom of the âDemon G.o.dâs Altarâ by yourself, who gave you such courage? Could it be that you believe that depending on yourself, you will be able to destroy the altar?â
âSou, sou, sou!â
From the altar in the distance, âSky Wolf Little Masterâ w.a.n.g Moâlin stood up. Giving his âSeven Evil Spiritâs Gourdâ a shake, numerous sounds of the air being pierced could be heard. Streak after streak of wolf smoke poured out and dispersed and, like galloping horses on a plain, rushed towards Fang Qing Xue.
At this moment, w.a.n.g Moâlin was without injuries, completely different from the person who had been driven into the depths of the river two days ago, raw and burned.
He had apparently been healed.
âDonât even mention a trivial altar, sooner or later, there will be a day where I personally meet the âAncestor Demon G.o.dâ and fight them. I shall see for myself what level of a G.o.d they are.â
Fang Qing Xue stood proudly in the air, her face a cold smile. Casually raising her hand, âPurple Yin Lightning Knifesâ crisscrossed, shockingly forming 108 qi knives in accordance to âTian Gang Di Shaâ. The knives sliced apart the wolf smoke that was rus.h.i.+ng over, and directly tried to behead those on the âDemon G.o.dâs Altarâ twenty to thirty li away. The violent thundering and flas.h.i.+ng lightning, Yin thunder shock, was going to directly explode the immense altar and kill the âShuraâ, w.a.n.g Moâlin, the âPure Fox She-Devilâ, and all of the others.
[TL: Tian Gang Di Sha is a Daoist legend⌠I didnât really understand any further than that⌠From the way the author is using it I a.s.sume itâs some formation but donât hold me to it :P]
âPuâchi, Puâchi!â
A few âFlying Yashaâ flying in the air, vicious and fierce as they were, upon encountering Fang Qing Xueâs qi knives, were immediately cut in half, their bodies incinerated by flames. Letting out miserable howls, they fell to the ground, exploding into a mess of blood. Unexpected death.
The âFlying Yashaâ which caused Yuâhua School inner disciples to be greatly afraid, the âFlying Yashaâ who were unable to be pierced by lingâqi, were not able to withstand an attack that was casually thrown at them by Fang Qing Xue.
While Fang Qing Xue had waved her hand, Fang Han below had become completely surrounded by the Demon and Devil army.
The hundreds upon thousands of âYashaâ were unable to attack the airborne Fang Qing Xue, and thus attacked Fang Han, thinking of him as a plump piece of flesh. They impatiently tried to bite a piece of b.l.o.o.d.y flesh.
Fang Han, although it is very dangerous this time, danger is a type of opportunity. Every âYashaâ that you kill, I can absorb their spiritual blood and store it in the âYellow Spring Riverâ to nourish the ten âFlying Yashaâ, letting them break the coc.o.o.n and turn them into âShuraâ.
