Chapter 186 (2/2)

Most demons were spawned by the Dark Abyss, and only a handful were the offspring of other demons.

Compared with mortals, demons had stronger innate primordial bloodlines. Just like how rank five demons had immortal bodies, the demon Demigods were even more threatening. They had tyrannical bodies that were unparalleled, and their Demonic powers were more overbearing than Transcendent Qi. It could be said that their foundation, innate skill, and other aspects could completely suppress Xia Clan’s men. Moreover, the population of Dark Abyss demons were unmeasurable. As for individual prowess? They had more battle experience, and their understanding of the Profound Mysteries were closely related to combat fighting.

Conversely, Xia Clan’s Transcendents cultivated in a peaceful environment. They also had weaker close combat prowess.

“Our Water Daoist Faction’s biggest enemy?” Xue Ying’s eyes sparkled. “General Yan Ze?”

…

After General Yan Ze’s appearance at Snowrock Castle, the Five Northern Provinces highest leader vanished without any trace.

Although Si Kong Yang, Chao Qing and Chi Qiu Bai personally searched for him, they still couldn’t find him.

Xue Ying’s true body continued to look for traces of demons throughout the Tranquil Sun Province. As he did so, he headed to the north.

Previously, he had kept his guard up and waited at the Water Rites town. Having no results searching in that fashion, he gave up that tactic and started to travel.

He went to mountain villages.

Walked on major roads.

Visited cities.

Every places he went, Xue Ying would always maintain his control of the World Energy to envelop and examine the hundred kilometers area around him. It seemed, however, as if all the demons in the Tranquil Sun Province had vanished. He couldn’t find any trace of demons.

Xue Ying would sometimes even act chivalrously in the hopes of catching another big fish. Previously, he had killed a rank four demon and discovered a Devil’s Well, exchanging it for 300,000 contribution points.

What a pity –

Not to mention a demon, he couldn’t even find any main altars of a Demonic God. Instead, he had killed a fair amount of corrupted nobles, robbers, and other similar trash.

Hu ~

Cold wind whistled by.

The weather became colder and the population sparser as he neared the northern parts of Tranquil Sun province.

In a boundless snow-covered plain, the population was so sparse that people could only see a small village occasionally after they had traveled for five to fifty kilometers. The commoners there used sleighs as a means of transportation. They struggled to survive in this bitterly cold place.

People were barely able to survive on this land. To the north was the Absolute Northernmost Great Snow Plains. The entire 50,000 kilometer area was forbidden land for mortals!

“The world has become a vast expanse of whiteness, really clean.” Xue Ying walked on the snow, leaving behind a long string of footprints.

Several months later.

Because he had voluntarily ‘become a knight in shining armor,’ he had seen too much viciousness, so much that it affected his mood. Now that he had arrived at the northernmost part of Tranquil Sun Province, there was no sign of human habitation. As he walked on the desolate snow, his heart gradually calmed, as if his soul had been cleansed.

“This world is naturally vast and without boundary.” Xue Ying stood on the top of a snow mountain. He looked at the distant expanse of whiteness with several frozen lakes, trees and other things. The feeling of vastness was really matchless.

Xue Ying sat cross-legged at the mountain top. He took out a bottle of wine, drinking it leisurely while watching the scenery.

He felt pleasure whenever he was on a snow mountain, gazing at the world. It seemed to be without boundary as even with his superior eyesight, he still could not see an end.

“The vast Earth, able to sustain everything,” Xue Ying softly whispered.

It seemed that something moved in his mind.

“The Earth…”

Xue Ying’s eyes sparkled. His soul completely fused together with the World.

The World Myriad Existences Energy fused with him and rushed forth.

There was the flexible Wind, the violent and blazing Fire, the gentle and unpredictable Water…

And the Earth, it contained endless and heavy earth power. Boundless, limitless, able to bear and support the Myriad Existences.
