Legend of Swordsman

Chapter 6364: Shocking Heaven Spear

The ancient demon, who had been suppressed all this time, began to erupt with fury, determined to reverse the situation. At the very least, he wanted to even the odds!

He roared in defiance, his eight arms wielding his innate divine abilities, continuously blocking the oncoming barrage of fists.

Fortunately, his physical body was strong enough that even when his head was shattered, it could still regenerate.

Although Wei Jiuxianʼs body was small, he used the God-Image Technique, known as ”Law of Heaven and Earth,” to enlarge his form to a hundred zhang, making him almost equal in size to the ancient demon.

”Damn human! I will tear you limb from limb!” the ancient demon roared, bellowing, ”Eight-Armed Space Lock!”

”Suppress!”

With those words, the surroundings trembled as a formidable law and power descended upon Wei Jiuxianʼs head.

The sensation was agonizing, causing Wei Jiuxian to weaken by a level, and the speed of his fist shadows slowed down.

Seizing this opportunity, the ancient demon roared once more:

”Kill!”

As soon as the word ”kill” was uttered, countless shadows of ancient demons surged towards Wei Jiuxian.

The earlier command to ”suppress” had a unique domain quality, allowing it to restrain opponents. But now, the command to ”kill” was a deadly force.

A brutal slaughter ensued, closing in swiftly.

Wei Jiuxian abandoned his fist attacks and instead focused on defending against the oncoming shadows of the ancient demon.

”Shocking Heaven Spear!”

With a wave of his massive hand, a long spear descended from the heavens.

The moment the power of the divine spear made contact, a dragonʼs roar from the firmament instantly shattered the suppression domain!

The spear swept across, obliterating the shadows of the ancient demons.

”How is this possible? He actually broke through my suppression and killing divine ability just like that!” The enormous eyes of the ancient demon were filled with astonishment.

This was his innate divine ability, a method strong enough to challenge opponents beyond his level, yet he couldnʼt defeat a human cultivator of the same level.

For a Special Life Form, this was a tremendous humiliation.

”Suppression and Killing Domain!”

The nine-headed ancient demon roared furiously, and his eight arms exerted simultaneous force. A destructive power surged from the heavens and earth.

He forcefully expanded his domain to cover the entire Eastern Land of the Tang Dynasty. This was his strongest attack.

At the same time, he summoned the Third Sequence Inheritance Hall, intending to use it to suppress Wei Jiuxian.

No matter what, he couldnʼt afford to lose to a human cultivator.

After being suppressed for so many years, only to encounter such a formidable opponent upon his release, his anger had reached its peak.

The domain descended.

Everyone trembled.

The billions of people in the Tang Dynasty all knelt at that moment.

Only a few cultivators struggled to stand.

Even Immortal Jiu Chen and Li Miao, who were within Mangshan Countyʼs city, had complicated feelings.

”Is this a naturally born Special Life Form?” Li Miao was deeply shocked. He had seen so little, only receiving a vague introduction from his immortal master.

He lacked a sense of reverence for true powerhouses.

At this moment, he finally understood the vast difference in the essence of life.

The Nine-Headed Demon had elevated its life level by a full two thousand times. Although it was far from its peak condition, this disparity was enough to make mortals submit and cause cultivators to bow their heads.

”It wonʼt be long before you become as powerful as he is, perhaps even stronger!”

Li Miao was stunned and turned to look at Immortal Jiu Chen within the Blood Condensation Array, nodding excitedly.

He too would become that powerful. The thought made him suppress his excitement.

Outside the city, the four God Manifestation Realm peak experts, though experienced, were also somewhat unsettled.

One of the two Arhats, the Destruction Arhat, trembled with his lips, speaking in an unwilling tone, ”They say the heavens are fair, but how can cultivators compensate for such a disparity? Without the secret technique of the Divine Eye, the human race would likely be suppressed forever!”

”Boundless!” The Extinguishing Arhat clasped his hands together and made no further comment.

Zhen Xian, hearing their conversation, couldnʼt help but sneer, ”What do you know? The greatest trait of the human race is their comprehension ability. Though the collective might not match Special Life Forms, their top-tier combat strength is not weaker than these ancient demons. Who do you think killed those ancient demons?”

”When they ascend, they will understand. In the Ancient Domain, humans are supreme. No matter how powerful Special Life Forms may be, they cannot overshadow the heavens!” Fu Qing held his divine sword, appearing cold and detached.

Though ancient demons were strong and possessed innate divine abilities, they started at such a high level that they lost the ability to innovate.

Because they could not reproduce.

They lived flamboyantly, or established forces to dominate one region.

Without the desire to advance further, they would be surpassed by others.

For billions of years, ancient demons were born at the pinnacle of the Great Completion, but when they fell, they were still only at the peak of the Great Completion.

They even disdained using treasures and refused to cultivate secret techniques created by the human race or invent their own. They could be said to lack the will to progress.

Moreover, their breakthroughs were thousands of times harder than those of humans, making them more likely to abandon the path of cultivation.

Todayʼs outcome was inevitable.

Calling them the most perfect life forms was not an exaggeration, but they were not perfect

powerhouses.

True powerhouses possess a heart that constantly seeks progress.

Every human cultivator present had such a heart.

No matter how difficult and perilous the road ahead, they would forge ahead.

For example, Li Miao and Immortal Jiu Chen.

One was a human emperor, the other a spiritual entity, yet they had spent decades planning, culminating in todayʼs imminent peak-this was determination and confidence.

Stripped of their titles, they were merely a mortal and a well-informed spiritual entity.

Yet they both had the heart of a powerhouse, constantly striving forward.

Even two powerful experts from the upper realm, both at the peak of the Primordial Spirit,

willingly descended into the mortal world, enduring a millennium of hardship, all for the sake of a heritage temple and the elusive legends of ancient demons.

They had not given up even now.

It was also a heart that continually sought progress.

On a grander scale, Jian Wushuang was no different.

He kept advancing.

After falling from Universe God to mortal, he still climbed back step by step.

He struggled among mortals, steadily returning to the peak.

This process, though seemingly wretched, was nothing.

When he reached the summit again, looking back, he would realize that those moments of

bowing his head, retreating, and enduring grievances were mere fleeting hardships, easily

brushed aside.

They would not affect his status as a supreme powerhouse.

Being able to pick up and let go, endure and chase-this was the cultivatorʼs heart of

progress.

Everyone had their own perspective, but this was Jian Wushuangʼs view.

Just like everyone present who, upon witnessing the power of the ancient demons, felt a pang

of bitterness in their hearts.

In contrast, Wei Jiuxian, who truly faced the ancient demons, remained calm.

He felt no awe for the innate perfection of the ancient demons; instead, he harbored a sense

of pity. Suspended in mid-air, Wei Jiuxian gently raised one hand, his expression stern as he shouted angrily, ”Citizens of the Great Tang, from this day forward, do not kneel to the strong!” ”Moreover, he is nothing more than a flawed being, without parents, family, or brothers. He

is not worthy of your submission!”

With that, he raised his long spear and charged directly at the ancient demon.

At this moment, his battle intent soared to its peak.

”With this spear, I will bring peace!”

The long spear, like a dragonʼs roar, emitted a melodious sound, stirring the dragon spirit

within the hearts of billions of mortals.
