Chapter 281: Chapter 281: Ancient Demon of Long Han

Ferocious, freezing Yin, filled with destruction and slaughter, this is the terrifying aura that only an Ancient Evil Demon could possess. Far more terrifying than ordinary fierce ghosts and demons, surpassing them by more than tenfold.

"Wow... such a terrifying aura of an Evil Demon, this sheep-headed humanoid creature is definitely not benevolent; Master should be careful. If my senses are not wrong, it should be an Ancient Demon from the Dragon Han Period."

Upon sensing the aura of this sheep-headed humanoid creature, the Evil Spirit King couldn’t help but scream in horror.

Dragon Han Period?

Chu Feng was greatly shocked; he had already held this sheep-headed humanoid demon in high regard, yet it turned out to be an Ancient Demon from the Dragon Han Period. This was indeed terrifying.

The Dragon Han Period, also known as the Sky-reaching Era, includes the Dragon Han, Chiming, Grand Opening Era, Taihuang, Yankang—five periods.

Among them, the most famous should be the Long Han Early Tribulation.

During that time, the Demon Race, Human Clan, and Demon Clan coexisted, bringing forth countless Eight Ancient Abilities, Overwhelming Giant Demons, and Ancestor Demons. In that era, the three clans fought over territories, aiming to dominate the entire Three Realms and even the Primordial Universe.

The Demon Race prospered in that era.

For instance, Heavenly Realm Ruler Emperor Jun and Eastern Emperor were dominant across the world, commanding submission from myriad clans. Whether it was the Human Clan or the Demon Clan, all barely survived under the tyranny of the Demon Race. However, everything has its rise and fall, and after a period of rule by the Demon Race, the real power began to rise among the humans.

The first to rise were the half-human half-demon Witch Clan, who were later classified as demons and called Demon.

The Demon Clan not only possessed powerful magic but also had strong Demon Bodies capable of terrifying regeneration.

Ancestor of Blood Demon had been said to have 1.08 billion Blood God’s Sons. As long as a single Blood God’s Son remained unextinguished, it could revive and be reborn. The Blood God’s Sons were incredibly fine like dust; to completely extinguish billions of Blood God’s Sons, how easy could it be?

It was nearly impossible to annihilate the Ancestor of Blood Demon.

There even existed an ancient saying, ’As long as the Blood Sea is not dry, the Ming River Ancestor shall not die!’

The Ming River here refers to the Ming River Ancestor, also known as the Ancestor of Blood Demon.

As for the later ones like Chiyou, Ping Yi, Shentu, Yu Lei, although each was reverently called Demon Ancestor, they still had a significant gap compared to the Ming River Ancestor.

In the Dragon Han Period, any minor soldier of the Demon Clan would be an incredibly powerful ability if placed in the current era.

This sheep-headed humanoid creature actually being an Ancient Demon from that period is chilling and palpitation-inducing. It is probably not something a few Great Sword Masters or even a Sword Saint could handle.

Only a Sword God Level warrior could possibly contend with it.

"Second Senior Brother, it’s dangerous, run quickly!"

After learning the origin of this sheep-headed humanoid creature, Chu Feng’s face turned a bit pale, and he hurriedly shouted to Liu Dazhuang.

"Why fear it? I will slice off its sheep head with one sword!" Liu Dazhuang, who reportedly used to be a butcher, later discovered his excellent talent, and hence was accepted into the Ten Thousand Sword Sect leading to his achievements in Sword Dao today.

He is very bold.

Not afraid at all, he had no awareness of the danger.

Elder Shoumei and others also didn’t pay too much attention. They didn’t have the vision that Chu Feng possessed nor did an Evil Spirit King to warn them.

"Junior Brother Chu, you only have the cultivation of a Sword Master, and fighting this demon won’t do. I am at the strength of a Peak Great Sword Master, truly not afraid of it," Liu Dazhuang believed Chu Feng was overcautious.

His cultivation was a Great Realm higher than Chu Feng, and his understanding of swordsmanship was also extremely powerful, hence he was full of confidence.

"Disciple, feel free to take action; under the Sword Domain of your master, it won’t turn the situation around," Elder Shoumei also confidently roared.

He intended to hone his disciple’s actual combat capabilities.

Often, life-and-death battles most easily lead to breakthroughs or significant realizations.

With his master’s encouragement, Liu Dazhuang felt even bolder and roared with his sword.

"Fiery Flame Slash!"

A sword slashed out, with its sword light blazing like flames, seeming to tear everything apart, intending to incinerate everything.

As one of the Sect’s Ultimate Skill of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, Fiery Flame Slash is extremely powerful.

Boom!

The fiery red sword light fiercely slashed on the head of the sheep-headed humanoid.

Everyone was stunned. Liu Dazhuang’s full-powered sword strike was like a mantis trying to shake a tree. Not to mention breaking its defense, it was like slashing at air, without even leaving a slight mark.

Hiss~!

Elder Shoumei and others, seeing this scene, all took in a sharp breath of cold air.

Originally, they thought this sheep-headed humanoid creature was just like a mechanical beast, no matter how strong. However, its terrifying strength was beyond imagination.

"Meh~!"

It stretched out its demon arm, different from human arms. This fiend’s demon arm was as dark as charcoal, like it was forged from steel, even emitting a metallic luster. And, it only had four fingers.

The fingernails were sharp and long, like blades, with curved hooks.

Before people could see what was happening, the sword in Liu Dazhuang’s hand had already been broken into several pieces.

"Disciple, withdraw quickly!"

Elder Shoumei finally realized the danger, regretting not listening to Chu Feng’s advice.

"Slash!"

Elder Shoumei’s Sword Domain had already enveloped the sheep-headed humanoid, swinging his sword, immediately sending out four sword lights.

Unexpectedly, Elder Shoumei also possessed Five Elements Sword Veins.

Cultivating to the Late Stage Sword Saint, even to the peak realm, those who still only have four sword lights are mostly with Five Elements Sword Veins.

As for those with only two sword lights, they must undoubtedly be from the Three Talents Sword Vein.

Three Talents Sword Vein is much inferior to Five Elements Sword Veins, belonging to the worst type of sword veins.

No matter how hard they try, they could only cultivate up to the Sword Saint Realm. This is their limit.

Many can only cultivate to the Early Stage Sword Saint, at most to the Mid Sword Saint, and then cannot advance further.

Just like before Chu Feng created the Fake Sword Vein, it was impossible for him to advance to the Sword Master Realm. He could only remain at the lowest Sword Saint Realm for life.

The number and quality of sword veins directly determine one’s future achievements.

This is also why Chu Feng, born with the Nine Yang Sword Veins, was called the Qilin Sword Son.

"Meh!"

The sheep-headed humanoid was really too powerful, it didn’t even look at the four sword lights slashed by Elder Shoumei, instead, it directly reached out its demon arm towards Liu Dazhuang whose sword had been destroyed.

Puchi, Puchi!

Unable to dodge, its demon fingers latched onto Liu Dazhuang’s shoulder, its nails mercilessly piercing through Liu Dazhuang’s soft armor and into his flesh.

"Uh... Ah..."

Liu Dazhuang could no longer hold it in, tilting his head back and letting out a scream of agony.

If the Sheep-headed Ancient Demon’s demon fingers clutched down a bit more, it would likely penetrate Liu Dazhuang’s heart, directly taking his life.

"Stop, stop right now, you evil creature, your target is me!" Elder Shoumei recently caused a blunder, almost resulting in Chu Feng’s death. Now trouble arose again, as he was too confident and underestimated the strength of this Sheep-headed Ancient Demon.

This caused Liu Zhuang to fall into the hands of the Ancient Demon, risking his life at any moment.

"Stay back, if your teacher encounters misfortune, you must flee immediately, do not interfere!" Elder Shoumei was determined to risk his life to save Liu Zhuang.
