A figure slowly descended and innately emitted a frightening, black, turbulent aura. This kind of black aura represented the most negative aura. It contained all the darkness, violence, destruction, evil desire, and similar attributes within it. In his capacity as a powerful Transcendent, Xue Ying’s willpower was also different from a mortal’s, but facing this kind of aura, he felt a sliver of fear. This terror was a life instinct!

Dark Abyss were the darkness attributed ultimate destroyers. As a Dark Abyss Transcendent lifeform, a demon naturally had this kind of terrifying aura. Humans called this terrifying aura ‘demonic’ aura!

Xue Ying quickly calmed himself, suppressing his fear.

‘This is a ?’ Xue Ying carefully observe its appearance. In the center of dark aura, there was a two meters high, sturdy human shaped lifeform. It’s whole body covered with a layer of deep purple scales and a pair of deep purple spiral-shaped horns on it’s head. The most eye-catching trait were its four arms! Its thick arms were also covered in scales and had hands ending in fingers with sharp fingernails that were not inferior to a deity-rank weapon.

‘Four arms?’ pondered Xue Ying, ‘it should have a good close combat ability!’

“This is a demon?”

“This is an Abyss Demon?”

The battleground magic array completely isolated the aura. Inside the battleground, the demon emitted a frightening aura, but outside the battleground, not a shred of the aura could be felt.

But numerous mortals that looked from afar, could feel an indescribable fear! Actually due to the far distance and the ordinary eyesight, in their eyes, that demon’s figure was very small! But its constant oppressive fear aura… made their legs feel weak, their bodies trembled uncontrollably, and their hearts tightened.

“Abyss Demons look like this?”

“I heard that all demons have scales, and their scales are really tough.”

“The rumors seem to be true! You see, that demon has a pair of horns! It’s called a Horn Demon as most of the s are horned s.” Because of the magic array isolating the arena from the spectators, the Transcendents didn’t feel any fear. They curiously looked and compared the demon’s appearance with their existing knowledge. Everyone discussed the view excitedly. This was their first time seeing a real Abyss Demon!

…

Demon ‘Lavda’ looked at the barefoot, black-clothed youngster in front of him. He carefully observed the prey in front of him and quickly found it’s weakness. He could kill it in one shot!

‘This is the chance I have longed for. As long as I can win, I’m able to have leisure days for a thousand years,.’ thought demon Lavda, full of longing. From his birth, he had been reared by the humans! Humans had captured a group of demons. A fraction of those demons had produced offspring. Since his birth until the current time, demon Lavda had spent his days being an experiment subject.

Those Transcendent Mages, again and again, had cut his flesh and done other experiment on him. He had been unable to break himself free from those torturous days.

He hated humans! Humans didn’t have any mercy for demons. Perhaps those captive demon were the ones most anticipating a chance for freedom through the Transcendent Life and Death Battle. As long as a demon won, the humans would not harm or disturb that demon for a thousand years.

Lavda was a newborn demon, and his strength was comparably weak. Therefore, he was selected as Xue Ying’s opponent. As for those older demons, even the demons from Dark Abyss, all of them had rich experiences and were likewise crafty and powerful. Such experienced demons were not suitable to be Xue Ying’s opponent.

‘Damn human, this is a rare chance! Even if I kill this human, I will not face punishment.’ demon Lavda radiated resentment. His bloodline make him full of killing desire. Every demon was like this, living for slaughter since their childhood. His bloodline along with the torture he had experienced from humans made him have both a grievance and an extremely deep hatred.

…

Xue Ying and this demon, Lavda, stood face to face for several breath’s time. Then Xue Ying made the first move.

Hong~~~~

Endless flame veiled down. After comprehending the second level of the Myriad Existences, the flame temperature was more frightening. The flame pressure reached five thousand kilograms, suppressing demon Lavda. The surrounding atmosphere was distorted. Those watching mortals and Transcendents saw the the distorted atmosphere.

“Only this small flame?” demon Lavda swept a sharp nail across the flame, and his lips made a disdainful smile. His ice-cold eyes gazed at Xue Ying.

Shua

He suddenly made a direct move to kill Xue Ying.

Without any warning, he suddenly went to attack. At that moment, all the spectating Transcendents watched nervously. The majority of them had never before seen a Dark Abyss demon, let alone faced one as an opponent. All of them wanted to see how formidable the demon was.

“Come on.” Xue Ying had been ready since the beginning. Now, he flared up. Facing his opponent, he activated his Power Bloodline without any hesitation, and in a flash he brandished his spear, ready to welcome his opponent.

The spear tip appeared like a terrifying fire, thrusting into the demon’s face.

Peng

demon Lavda’s four arms made layers of defense, with a palm slapped toward the spear’s tip. The clash pushed Xue Ying back, but it barely affected demon Lavda.

‘He’s stronger than me, maybe about 50% stronger.’ Assessed Xue Ying.

Shua Shua Shua….

Both exchanged moves quickly.

Xue Ying’s spear flitted, attacking and defending without gaps, but demon Lavda’s four arms also attacked. Lavda was really worthy of being called a natural-born slaughterer. Although he was not yet able to comprehend the Realm of Myriad Existences, he was skilled enough already to have reached perfection. Even the claws tipping the fingers on his four arms had a structure suitable for slaughtering. These claws could scratch and slash like a knife, hook, and grab weapons.

With Lavda’s four arms attacking together… fortunately Xue Ying’s spear revolved violently, unpredictable, keeping his opponent from catching the spear in its hooked claws.

After exchanging dozens of attacks…
