Chapter 464 -99: Slaying the Yin Sha Demon Monarch

“Splash!”

The mouth had yet to reach the child’s neck when a streak of sword light suddenly flashed, piercing towards his spine with great speed.

“Not now, wait until he absorbs the blood, then strike…”

Unexpectedly, the master appeared early, without waiting for the best moment. The Frost Demon Lord anxiously exclaimed.

He had repeatedly emphasized that the best time to strike was during the zi hour, when he was absorbing blood, as he would be at his weakest. But this moment had not yet arrived, the blood had yet to enter his throat, so his combat power was untouched. Charging in rashly was too reckless!

“If we let him absorb it, the child will die…”

Understanding his intention, Zhang Xuan shook his head.

“It’s just one child’s life. If you strike when he is weak, you’ll have a higher success rate, saving more children in the end!” The Frost Demon Lord could not understand Zhang Xuan’s thought process.

Zhang Xuan’s eyes flashed: “I know, but who says I can’t kill him even if he isn’t weak?”

This conversation happened in a split second. As the sword light continued, Zhang Xuan had already appeared in front of the Yin Sha Demon Monarch. Just as the sword light was about to strike his body, his heart pounded fiercely, and the remnant strength of You Hai surged throughout his body, instantly granting him the strength of Life Sea 9-dan.

The Yin Sha Demon Monarch either did not have time to dodge or did not notice, allowing the sword tip to pierce through without any resistance.

“Something is wrong!”

The strength successfully entered the opponent’s body. Instead of feeling a sense of success, Zhang Xuan’s pupils contracted suddenly.

The Yin Sha Demon Monarch he had pierced was like a corpse, with no blood flowing out and no pain felt, as if he had stabbed a piece of wood.

“This is bad!”

Just as he was about to withdraw his sword and retreat, he saw the impaled Yin Sha Demon Monarch’s body remain still, but his neck twisted around, and both hands, bending in an unnatural way, struck down with force.

Bang!

The move was so abrupt that even Zhang Xuan, with his cultivation, could not react in time and was struck on the shoulder, sending him flying backward involuntarily.

Whoosh!

The Yin Sha Demon Monarch’s legs also bent in an unnatural way, taking a step forward and striking again. This time, Zhang Xuan was prepared. His heart pumped powerfully.

As he wielded his sword, the stars seemed to scatter from his blade, falling like raindrops.

Splash!

A large hole was instantly pierced in the Yin Sha Demon Monarch’s chest. The strength of the clash also forced Zhang Xuan to retreat involuntarily.

Truly, he was on par with the Blue Cloud Venerable, far stronger than You Hai before.

“Hmph!”

No matter how hard it is to kill him, he must be killed. Zhang Xuan’s heart sneered coldly. Channeling his strength through his entire body, he was about to mobilize the remaining power of You Hai to unleash his strongest move when he suddenly felt a chill at his back.

Looking down, he found a piece of skeleton had somehow pierced through his back.

Struggling to turn his head, he saw a figure with an identical build and mask standing behind him.

“You’re not the Blue Cloud Venerable, you’re the Frost Demon Lord, right? The moment you absorb blood is when you are at your weakest. That was the false information I intentionally released… I never expected, after waiting for so many years, that you’d really come!”

The figure sneered, his voice as cold as an owl in the night.

Zhang Xuan’s face turned ashen.

He had confirmed the Frost Demon Lord had not lied to him, but he had not considered that the Yin Sha Demon Monarch had.

As expected, these great demons were not to be underestimated. They were either plotting against others or constantly thinking of ways to do so.

Anyone else would have been gravely injured and rendered combat ineffective if struck by this bone, even in their prime. But Zhang Xuan was different.

The Eternal Heart pounded violently, and in the blink of an eye, the remaining power of You Hai was pumped throughout his entire body by his formidable heart. Zhang Xuan stepped back to a pre-marked spatial point.

Whoosh!

In an instant, he broke free from the spatial constraints of the opponent, disappearing from the spot and returning to the Suspended Realm.

Even if Prince Yuanqing used the Mountain River Order to seal the space, it would be difficult for him to escape. As for the opponent, it was not as easy to confine someone who had mastered Spatial Manipulation at the same level.

“Recover!”

Back in the Suspended Realm, Zhang Xuan resumed his identity as Master of One Realm, extending his palm with a light command.

The bone that had pierced his body appeared in his palm, and his wound healed perfectly.

“This is the Yin Sha Demon Monarch’s most powerful celestial treasure, forged from one of his own ribs…”

The Frost Demon Lord looked over in disbelief: “You planned for him to strike on purpose?”

The opponent had spent countless efforts to forge this Demon Bone, unleashing its tremendous power. Even at his peak, the Frost Demon Lord would have avoided its sharp edge temporarily.

Yet, it was brought here just like that.

Could it be that Zhang Xuan had not fallen for the trap but had deliberately lured the opponent into striking, to seize his celestial treasure? Zhang Xuan did not answer, instead lightly tapping the bone with his finger.

In an instant, the bone released a dazzling light and no longer resisted, being directly refined.

Even though this artifact was no weaker than the Soul Summoning Banner, in the Suspended Realm, against Zhang Xuan, a single thought could destroy it. This was the terrifying power of the Master of One Realm.

Having done all this, Zhang Xuan inserted the bone back into his chest and gently shook it before reappearing in the courtyard.

From disappearing to reappearing, only a brief moment had passed. In the eyes of the Yin Sha Demon Monarch, it seemed Zhang Xuan could not withstand it and had used some kind of invisibility technique.

Zhang Xuan reappeared, seemingly unable to endure the pain, spitting out blood and tumbling to the ground involuntarily.

“Struck by my Yin Sha Demon Bone, you think you can escape?”

The Yin Sha Demon Monarch laughed, stretching out his palm and grabbing the air: “Return!”

Whoosh!

The bone embedded in Zhang Xuan’s body slowly withdrew, flying towards the Yin Sha Demon Monarch.

“Frost Demon Lord, you want to kill me, but I’ve long desired to kill you as well. Even if we alarm the Blood Venerate Demon Emperor, it’ll be clear you struck first…”

The Yin Sha Demon Monarch laughed, reaching to catch the bone and unleash its power to end the battle. The bone suddenly accelerated as it flew.

Splash!

In an instant, the bone pierced his throat before he could react.

“You, you…”

The Yin Sha Demon Monarch’s eyes widened in disbelief.

This weapon, which he had refined for countless years, had suddenly accelerated and pierced him. It was too bizarre.

“No… you refined my Demon Bone?”

Soon, he realized.

The bone was no longer under his control. Even a fool would understand it had been refined by the opponent.

A cherished treasure he had bled for was refined within a breath, and he, the owner, did not even know… How had this man done it?

But Zhang Xuan did not give an explanation. A streak of sword light slashed down with a “swoosh!” and the Yin Sha Demon Monarch’s consciousness faded.

Whoosh!

A round Essence Pill appeared in Zhang Xuan’s palm, emanating immense strength.
