Chapter 975: An Astonishing Slash

“Is he… really a Demon Commander?” someone said with a shaking voice.

After that.

Everyone started grinding their teeth. Even Hu Shouxin—the Heavenly General of the Demon-suppressing Heavenly Sect—widened his eyes.

A Demon Commander!

That was someone comparable to a Nascent Soul Heavenly Lord on Planet Tianhuang. In the Ancient Demons Loch, it was common to see a Demon Commander fight against three Nascent Soul Cultivators alone. Shouldn’t such a terrifying being appear after the sixtieth level? Why was it here?

What surprised Heavenly General Hu was that Luo Changshen and the scruffy old cultivator could stand side-by-side with a Demon Commander. Did this mean that they were Heavenly Lords?

“What’s going on? Three Heavenly Lords came to the Ancient Demons Loch?”

Heavenly General Hu was terrified.

Sima Tai and the old cultivators were even trembling.

Then, Lady Zi suddenly stepped closer and knelt before the scruffy old cultivator respectfully.

“Greetings Lord Gu. I’m Zi Qiuyun from the Zi family in Dongyang City. Our Ancestral Patriarch once received half a Heavenly Book from you. The image is still hanging in our ancestral hall and we’ve never forgotten about it.”

“You’re a descendant of that kid back then. I can’t believe it’s been ten thousand years and he’s also dead.” Lord Gu frowned. He sighed and shook his head. “Get up. You can follow me there, but whether you can get a cultivation opportunity will depend on your luck.”

“Thank you.”

Lady Zi slowly walked and knelt behind Lord Gu while being extremely respectful.

“My Lady, what about us?” Captain Xue quickly asked.

“You…”

Lady Zi didn’t reply to him; she looked sorry.

“As for you, you’re already lucky to be able to see the deity ground. Don’t even dream about getting any cultivation opportunities.” The scruffy old cultivator snickered.

“Right, you’ll become my food.”

Yuanlong burst into laughter.

“Boom!”

Countless plumes of black mist rose behind him, turning into hell. A Fiend God inside, which was a hundred feet tall, got up. It was covered in a black armor and its two horns were shining. Its eyes were red and there were pointed fangs in its mouth, as if it were a demon from Hell.

“Unfortunately, he wouldn’t be able to become a Divine Lord of Star Ocean in the Changshen Sect.” Luo Changshen shook his head.

“You mean, Chen Beixuan?” the Goddess of the Changshen Sect said.

“That’s right. He can kill a Nascent Soul Cultivator at the Golden Core Level. Even though Nascent Soul Cultivators on Planet Tianhuang are much weaker than normal, they’re still powerful and talented. Disregarding whether he won the battle with his own power or with a treasure, such a cultivator can rarely be seen even deep in the universe and is comparable to a Divine Prince.

“And yet, only three cultivators can have this opportunity. Lord Gu and Yuanlong have got their places, so he should run as fast as he can if he’s clever. Yuanlong is nothing like the Nascent Soul Cultivators on Planet Tianhuang.”

Luo Changshen heaved a sigh.

His eyes glittered and he finally showed his real appearance. He was like a superior king and he looked down at Chen Fan and the others expressionlessly, as if they were ants.

Lord Gu even stood with his hands behind him and glanced over the deity ground.

He had seen too many talents. If that day were an ordinary day, he might have asked Chen Fan to join the “Devil God Sect” and taken him to see different worlds, but he couldn’t just give up a cultivation chance.

“Grandpa, that girl is so beautiful. Save her and let her be my maid.”

The girl pointed at Xiao Mang as she sucked her thumb.

“Alright, my little girl. Even if you ask for the stars, I can give them to you, let alone a simple maid,” Lord Gu said with a gentle smile.

Xiao Mang watched Lord Gu and Yuanlong decide her own fate and was so enraged her face became flushed, but thinking thoroughly, she felt that something wasn’t right.

Yuanlong, Luo Changshen or Lord Gu.

They all came from an unimaginably powerful background.

The Goddess of the Changshen Heavenly Region was only like a maid next to Luo Changshen. Lord Gu had even taught the Ancestral Patriarch of the Zi family ten thousand years before, and “Devil King Palace,” one of the five imperishable sects on Planet Tianhuang, was a branch of his sect. So, how terrifying were they?

This was the first time—

Xiao Mang discovered something hidden behind the world and she seemed to have unveiled part of the truth.

Even the Demon Commander Yuanlong had the Ancient Demon King as backer. Then, Luo Changshen and Lord Gu must also be quite powerful.

“Die!”

Yuanlong reached out.

Boom!

An extremely giant hand came out from his back. It was covered with black scales that were each an inch large and the nails were shiny. It enveloped Chen Fan, Heavenly General Hu and the others like a devil’s hand.

“Yuanlong, I want that girl alive,” Lord Gu said.

“Don’t worry.”

Yuanlong laughed.

Its claw became larger and larger, finally covering the sky like a thundercloud. What was more frightening was that all Dharma Spells for escaping were being restricted. The dimension even became as hard as an iron plate and nobody was able to run.

Someone slashed at the giant hand, but countless sparks were created when it made contact. However, none of the scales fell; instead, that mid-stage Golden Core Cultivator spurted out blood.

“We’re doomed.”

Seeing this sight, Heavenly General Hu and the others were devastated.

This was a real Demon Commander, who was even more powerful than the legendary Nascent Soul Heavenly Lords.

Even the sisters of the Xu family were frightened.

“Heavenly Lord, what should we do?”

Xu Na was about to cry.

Although Chen Fan had once killed a Nascent Soul Cultivator, Yuanlong was too powerful. Its fire burnt the sky and its energy shook the earth. Could Chen Fan really survive? Even Xu Rou thought it was impossible.

Even Xiao Mang and Zhao Juexian looked at Chen Fan and were worried about him.

“Unfortunately, I’m the only one who can be saved. I’m sorry.”

Lady Zi didn’t want to watch this, especially when she heard Captain Xue and the others yelling, so she turned around.

And what about Chen Fan? He was only an ordinary Fiend Art Cultivator, so Lady Zi had never thought about him, even if he had a powerful background. When Lord Gu spoke, his fate had already been determined and even a Nascent Soul Cultivator would have been unable to resist.

“What a shame! An elite of a generation is going to die here.”

The Goddess of the Changshen Sect shook her head and sighed.

Chen Fan’s performance was astonishing at first. He defeated the nine elites, killed the Medicine God Prince and a Nascent Soul Cultivator. She had even heard about him in the Changshen Heavenly Region. Still, at the moment, he could only be killed while facing Yuanlong.

People like the Goddess of the Changshen Sect knew how powerful a Nascent Soul Cultivator with a complete cultivation art was. That wasn’t someone Ancestral Patriarch Hongyang could compare to. As the soldier of the Ancient Demon King, it certainly had a divine cultivation art and earth-shattering power. Fighting with a few cultivators like Ancestral Patriarch Hongyang wasn’t a difficult thing to do.

“Only someone like Divine Prince Luo can really shine under the stars.”

The Goddess of the Changshen Sect looked at Luo Changshen. He was powerful and was even more unpredictable than her Ancestral Patriarch, which left her in awe.

Then.

Suddenly.

“Crack!”

A blade aura struck like a thunderbolt in the dark.

“Argh!”

Yuanlong let out a cry. Its claw was split in half and countless drops of black blood fell from the sky in a hundred mile range as if it were raining.

A cold voice then sounded.

“How dare you humiliate my sister?”

At this moment.

Everyone was shocked as they stared at the young man who was wearing an azure outfit and holding a sword in his hand.

He stood there like God.
