Imperial Cultivation-Chapter 934 - 930: Power
They remained indifferent and hurried away.
Once the two Demon Clan experts left, Xiao Ruoling and Shen Hanyue breathed a sigh of relief.
Chu Zhiyuan chuckled.
"You still find this amusing!" Shen Hanyue scolded. "Those two have stronger cultivation than us!"
They felt a strong sense of oppression.
It was like two mountains pressing down, or two beasts ready to swallow them whole.
Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile, "At first glance, it’s hard to tell if they’re demons or humans, don’t worry."
"Are they really Demon Clan?" Shen Hanyue quickly asked.
Only after death does the Demon Clan exhibit atavism, revealing their demonic nature and origin.
Xiao Ruoling whispered, "Their blood energy is surging; it’s definitely not like our cultivation method."
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Ruoling is still the sharpest."
While it’s hard to tell if someone is human or demon at first glance, a keen person can sense it.
The cultivation method of the Demon Clan involves blood energy as thick as mountains and seas, different from humans.
"If they are truly Demon Clan..." Shen Hanyue curiously glanced around, watching the two Demon Clan experts leave, said, "Senior sister, should we strike first to kill them?"
The Demon Clan sees humans as cultivation materials, devouring essence blood to nourish themselves.
When humans encounter the Demon Clan, they kill without hesitation, no need for questions.
This is no longer about grudges or morality, purely a stance between races.
Xiao Ruoling shook her head, "We don’t have the strength, let’s not sacrifice ourselves."
"Ugh... times like this make me feel we need to train harder," Shen Hanyue sighed.
She watched Xiao Ruoling train arduously and reluctantly followed suit, not really wanting to bury herself in training.
Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile, "Aren’t you curious about what the Demon Realm is like? Should we take a look?"
"Yes!" Shen Hanyue quickly replied, "I’ve always been curious about the Demon Realm; they say our Human World has the worst spiritual energy; looking at it now, it’s definitely true."
Standing atop the mountain, they could see a city not far away, with a rough architectural style, yet densely populated and very lively.
The three of them leapt over the treetops heading down the mountain, and upon reaching the foot of the mountain, they saw two groups of people rushing over.
It turned out four youths were fleeing, while twelve were pursuing them.
The ones ahead fled while turning to block, fighting as they fled.
The two groups moved as swiftly as galloping horses, and in the blink of an eye, they were close, with fist and palm shadows flying.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang..."
The muffled sounds were endless, and the surrounding trees exploded.
The fleeing youths saw Chu Zhiyuan and the others, and their eyes lit up.
"Hurry up!"
"Quick escape!"
"Run, run, run!"
...
They shouted in chorus.
Chu Zhiyuan frowned.
Xiao Ruoling and Shen Hanyue’s expressions changed slightly, knowing the malice of these guys.
They intended to use them as cover!
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Run!"
With their shout, they had no choice but to run, explaining was futile unless they fought back, otherwise it was wiser to flee first.
"Damned!" Shen Hanyue cursed angrily.
The three of them immediately turned and dashed up the mountain.
The four youths followed them up the mountain, incredibly fast, catching up in the blink of an eye.
Chu Zhiyuan frowned.
To accommodate the two women he maintained this pace, then around Xiao Ruoling’s slender waist, placed his hand on Shen Hanyue’s shoulder, suddenly accelerating.
In the blink of an eye, he was out of the range of the two groups, swiftly leaving.
Shen Hanyue exclaimed excitedly, "What amazing Qinggong!"
She watched the youths distantly, with radiant eyes, "Guess they’ll die now!"
Xiao Ruoling coldly remarked, "Truly despicable!"
Chu Zhiyuan nodded, "Indeed deserve death."
The four youths were desperate to live, resorting to any means.
Yet this didn’t diminish his intent to kill.
He led the two women atop the mountain.
At this point, they were only halfway up the mountain.
Chu Zhiyuan released his hands, formed seals with his fingers, and the Great Demon Suppressing Seal started.
A beam of golden light condensed, suddenly drifting toward the four youths.
This golden light, originally a cluster, spread as it drifted, forming a thin layer of golden gauze.
The four youths didn’t pay attention as the golden gauze floated toward them, dodging aside casually.
But the unexpected happened; as the golden gauze reached them, it burst into golden mist.
As soon as they were touched by the golden mist, their bodies halted as if seized.
Immediately following, shadow fists and palm seals landed upon the four youths.
They were sent flying, spewing blood arrows in mid-air, soon again enveloped by shadow fists and palm seals.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang..."
They continually fell and flew up again, before finally hanging like broken sacks over tree branches.
Their bodies hung limp like mud.
Chu Zhiyuan revealed a smile.
The Great Demon Suppressing Seal indeed was different, its power incomparable.
The Great Demon Suppressing Seal effortlessly tapped into the strength of the Demon Suppressing Divine Tree, ignoring spatial constraints, truly mysterious.
Indeed worthy of being Divine Clan Martial Arts!
Xiao Ruoling and Shen Hanyue looked at him in surprise.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled, "Consider this as revenge, right?"
"They’re still coming," Shen Hanyue pointed to the group of youths coming.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Still seeking death, I was originally going to spare them."
As he spoke, both hands formed seals again.
Ten meters away, a cluster of golden light formed, promptly shooting toward the approaching youths.
The youths knew the power of this golden light, their forms instantly shifted, dodging far to the left to avoid the drifting golden gauze.
Chu Zhiyuan formed seals again, sending another cluster of golden light.
They dodged again, swerving far to the right, staying clear of the approaching golden gauze.
Then there was a third golden light, fourth golden light.
The third and fourth golden lights connected with the still dispersing two golden lights, forming a semicircular curtain.
Wanting to avoid its coverage required a large detour.
As they made the detour, they realized four golden clusters had spread, forming another curtain.
Finally forming a circular curtain, securely surrounding the four, no gaps to slip through.
Chu Zhiyuan watched the halting youths with a smile.
Shen Hanyue giggled.
Xiao Ruoling shook her head with a laugh.
She curiously observed the ever-present floating golden gauze, finding it very fascinating.
"Hey, interesting!" a youth shouted. "Who might you be?"
Chu Zhiyuan said, "If you retreat now, I won’t pursue, sparing your lives."
"Spare our lives? Haha! Hahaha!"
"Haha..."
The youths laughed heartily.
Chu Zhiyuan looked at them indifferently.
Amidst the laughter, the handsome youth pointed at Chu Zhiyuan, "Send those two beauties over, and I’ll spare your life!"
Shen Hanyue spat, "Bah!"
Xiao Ruoling frowned.
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head, "Self-inflicted misfortune cannot be lived, then go ahead!"
The golden gauze swiftly expanded, approaching them quickly, and then burst open.
The golden gauze turned into golden mist, fast as they couldn’t react before touching them.
Instantly their bodies stiffened.
From Chu Zhiyuan’s sleeve, several flying knives emerged, gracefully passing through each youth’s body, either in the chest, navel, or forehead.
Their formidable bodies and tough skin couldn’t withstand the power of the Glazed Glass Blade under such circumstances of demon essence being unable to activate.
Their demon crystals shattered, resulting in immediate death.
Shen Hanyue and Xiao Ruoling watched in amazement as his flying knives effortlessly harvested their lives.
Chu Zhiyuan retrieved the bloodless Glazed Glass Blade, "Let’s go."
"These guys..."
Shen Hanyue saw the corpses of the previous four youths had already transformed, becoming leopard-faced.
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head, "We’re lucky we didn’t encounter a Venerable."
"It’s not so easy to encounter a Venerable," Shen Hanyue laughed, "These guys looked quite terrifying."
This was the first time she encountered Demon Clan corpses.
Xiao Ruoling furrowed her brow slightly, "Should we go back first?"
She thought having killed so many demon clan members, would likely attract pursuit, better to leave early for safety.
