Master of the Demon Emperor

Through the chat with Black Tiger Emperor, Xia Tianyi, and others, Su Yie learned that the arrival of Xiwan City had already attracted attention from all sides.

The Luoshui Sect was the first Human Clan sect to act, followed by other sects rushing over, and even the Demon Path and other Demon Clans were stirring.

"No wonder the Human Emperor wanted to pass on his powers to us."

Su Yie sighed. He didn't even know if cultivating the Demon Emperor's Divine Skill was the right decision.

Although he had only practiced for a few days, under the influence of the Dragon Strength Pill, his physical body had already begun to transform towards demonization.

If he stopped his cultivation to restart now, it would deal him a severe blow, and even the Strength of a Hundred Dragons would greatly diminish. For a while, he would be immobile, and the process would be excruciatingly painful.

At this point, he could only follow this path to the end and see if there was a chance to change later on.

Before long, Nan Xiaopao and the others woke up.

"Is this real? Can we start cultivating now?"

Zhang Manting exclaimed with excitement, absolutely thrilled, as she was also a student and had read many novels, harboring longings for cultivation.

Her parents were equally excited because, if they became cultivators as described in the cultivation technique, they would have the power to resist against monsters.

"Wow, I can cultivate too! Once I become strong, I can protect you!"

Nan Xiaopao chuckled at Su Yie and after saying this, she stuck out her tongue shyly. How strong Su Yie was—how long would she need to cultivate to catch up with him?

"Then I'll wait for you. You should cultivate here for now, as I need to go out. It's good for your family to be together so you can look after each other."

Su Yie smiled. With Nan Xiaopao having the Strength of One Dragon, if she started cultivating, no one in the city could be her match, not to mention she had the Exquisite Robe for protection.

He, on the other hand, wanted to find a secluded place to cultivate, to practice his Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword and the Divine Skill Scroll given to him by Elder Lord Qi Yang.

"Where are you going? Are you going to abandon your wife?"

Nan Xiaopao suddenly became anxious, her words making her aunt and uncle blush with shame.

This girl always spoke so improperly.

"Not at all, I have something I must do, but I'll come back for you later."

Su Yie said with a smile as he tousled her hair. In the whole of Xiwan City, he only cared about Nan Xiaopao. Having come to the Ancient Wilderness, he naturally intended to protect her well, but it was inconvenient for him to cultivate within the city.

After a moment of thought, Nan Xiaopao eventually nodded in agreement.

Zhang Manting's family naturally had no objections either. With the end of the world at hand, they couldn't rely entirely on Su Yie's presence.

And so, Su Yie left the neighborhood.

"Cousin, how powerful is Su Yie?"

Zhang Manting asked as she and Nan Xiaopao stood on the balcony watching Su Yie leave.

Nan Xiaopao watched intently and said, "He's very strong, it's hard to explain to you."

"Psh!"

Zhang Manting scoffed, turning around to go back inside. Her parents had already started to attempt cultivation, and she didn't want to waste any time.

Meanwhile, a cultivation frenzy swept through the entire city.

The number of people heading to White Bridge University had decreased significantly, and on the sports field, tens of thousands of people had fainted while inheriting the cultivation technique, giving Mo Haosheng and others a huge fright. When people woke up, they hurriedly enquired and learned about the situation.

"Xuanyuan Human Emperor? Impossible!"

Mo Haosheng was shocked, and so were the other disciples of the Luoshui Sect.

"Does the legendary Human Emperor really exist?"

"That can't be... Isn't that just a myth?"

"This is bad. The city was brought here by the Human Emperor; won't our interference offend him?"

"What should we do now?"

The Luoshui Sect disciples were even more panic-stricken; although Luoshui Sect was powerful, it was nothing compared to the Human Emperor.

"You all wait here, I need to return to the sect to report this news."

Mo Haosheng said, and then he leapt up and flew away on his sword.

The other Luoshui Sect disciples gritted their teeth in frustration; that guy ran so fast and didn't even discuss with them.

But they dared not express their feelings, choosing to endure in silence.

Half an hour later, Su Yie finally left the city.

Xiwan City was vast, and the complex, towering forest added to the time it took despite his full-speed travel.

His figure agile like a leopard, he weaved through the woods, swiftly arriving atop a mountain.

Standing there, he could overlook a corner of Xiwan City, faintly make out the hustle of figures, and even see some cultivating on rooftops or terraces.

Su Yie took out the sword manual for the Zhou Wu Sword and Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword from the Repository of the Dao, holding the sword in his right hand while flipping through the manual with his left.

Besides basic swordsmanship, the Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword included a special move.

At the Minor Achievement level, overcome enemies with the speed of the sword!

At the Major Achievement level, wield the sword with the heart!

Capable of slaying immortals!

It appeared formidable, and Su Yie memorized all the sword moves, starting to practice swinging the sword.

Initially clumsy, fortunately, the Dragon Strength Pill had tempered his body, enabling quick learning.

In no time, he was able to perform the full set of moves with mastery, swiftly moving atop the mountain like a white shadow.

Just like that, Su Yie embarked on his path of cultivation.

Practice the sword by day, absorb the Essence of the Moon at night to enhance his cultivation.

Time flew by.

Ten days hurriedly passed.

Su Yie had obtained an entry-level mastery of the Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword and had already developed the bearing of a swordsman. His cultivation had also greatly progressed, and he could already sense the demonic power within his dantian.

That day, Su Yie took out his phone and joined the group chat of Emperor Su's Sect.

Emperor Su: I have given the Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword to a mortal who reached the Minor Achievement stage in ten days. How is his talent?

Xia Tianyi: Ten days? Impossible!

Black Tiger Emperor: Is it for real? The Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword is the Sword Saint's famous signature technique!

Elder Lord Qi Yang: A mortal? Emperor Su, why are you training a mortal?

Wux Qingyao: A monstrous genius, is he truly a mortal?

Su Yie smiled as he read the messages. It seemed he was a genius!

Ever since starting to cultivate, he felt that his talent was extraordinary, not just the effect of the Dragon Strength Pill. Could his phone have influenced him?

Su Yie started boasting, claiming he would discover a great number of geniuses, create the strongest sect, and that joining the Emperor Su's Sect was an honor for them!

Members of Su Imperial Clan were buzzing with excitement at every boast he made.

The reason they didn't doubt Su Yie was that the pressure he exerted when he was angry was truly terrifying, far beyond the simplicity of an Immortal Land god.

After boasting for a while, Su Yie continued practicing his swordplay.

He wanted to master the Immortal-Slaying Heart Sword as soon as possible, to will his sword with his heart and annihilate all enemies!

He had also looked at the Divine Skill Scroll given to him by Elder Lord Qi Yang but couldn't comprehend a thing. When he opened the scroll, there wasn't a single character inside.

Two days later.

At the northern end of the Land of Qiling's desert, a dark line appeared, separating heaven and earth.

Zooming in, an uncountable horde of Demon Beasts was seen storming forward, raising clouds of dust, shaking the earth and mountains. Among the army were ten-meter-long Demon Wolves, mammoth-sized creatures, and every variety of monsters, all roaring, startling Xiwan City.

"That sound is..."

"Monsters are coming! The monsters are here!"

"What a terrifying noise, could it be a beast wave?"

"It's coming from outside the city, what on earth is happening?"

The people in the city, who were diligently practicing their cultivation, were all startled by the commotion. Recently, Xiwan City had been in a state of city-wide cultivation, with few people on the streets.

Peace was thought to have arrived, but tranquility had been broken so quickly.

Many soldiers were positioned on the northern side of Xiwan City, mostly consisting of armed police and civil police who had organized themselves to protect the security of Xiwan City. But upon seeing the vast army of Demon Beasts ahead, they trembled, weapons in hand.
