I Slay Gods and Demons in the Deceit Night

"The Supreme Xuanyang Demon-sealing Nail infused with Phoenix Blood?"

Lin Yan's gaze slightly narrowed.

In later generations, he also faced multiple assassinations with the God-breaking Mallet and the Supreme Xuanyang Demon-sealing Nail.

Among them was infused with the mana of the Old Gods.

But it indeed did not have the divine might of today's Supreme Xuanyang Demon-sealing Nail.

Recalling that time, the first encounter with the assassination by the Supreme Xuanyang Demon-sealing Nail penetrated the Inner Realm Divine Domain of Prince Zhen Nan, Hong Xiao, directly targeting himself.

If at that time, it wasn't the Old Gods' mana contained within but Phoenix Blood, with such power, perhaps Lin Yan would have truly fallen.

As for Shangguan Shang, let alone being in the critical juncture of ascending to a Human Martial Saint, even if he had become a Human Martial Saint, facing this strike, it would surely be a grave situation.

His gaze slightly narrowed, looking at this woman, discovering that her attire was completely incompatible with the tribal era of the southern land.

In the tribes Lin Yan had seen, whether male or female, most had coarse clothing barely covering their bodies.

For example, Shangguan Xuanniao wore only a leather skirt below, with a bare upper body, revealing ruggedness.

And the women of this era also barely covered their bodies, taking robust figures and dark skin as symbols of beauty.

The more robust a woman was, the more capable of bearing children, and the stronger the offspring would be.

This Red Nether Era was filled with a sense of savagery!

But this woman was dressed in a luxurious blue gown, incomparable even to the young ladies of noble families in Heavenly Destiny City of the later Holy Alliance.

Her skin was fair, and her features were delicate.

Her figure was slender, and her gestures elegant.

"You have Phoenix Blood, a descendant of Gods and Demons?"

Lin Yan's Heavenly Eye shone from his forehead, saying indifferently, "Ancient Phoenix, Supreme Divine Beast, are you from the Imperial Blood Divine Clan?"

"..."

The woman in blue paused, looking at the red strange bird beside her.

The red strange bird lowered its voice, spreading mana, "We are no match, the Supreme Xuanyang Demon-sealing Nail has failed, the opponent is stronger than your father… just admit it!"

The woman in blue was silent for a moment, then said, "Indeed, it is me, and who might you be, descendant of Gods and Demons? Have you come to slay this Human Clan member as well?"

"I am... from the Human Clan!"

Lin Yan grasped the Night Illuminating Divine Sword, exuding killing intent.

Took a step forward, and the longsword slashed down.

"..."

The woman in blue's face changed dramatically, exclaiming, "I am also from the Human Clan!"

Lin Yan's blade did not pause for a moment.

He had no thought of sparing the beautiful.

Since she was a descendant of Gods and Demons, coming to assassinate a strong individual from the Human Clan, she was an enemy, not a friend, no need for more words!

Only to see a phoenix phantom burst forth from the woman in blue.

But before the phantom could emerge, it was cut down by Lin Yan in one stroke.

The blade was about to land on her body.

But a voice was heard.

"Hold on!"

It was the voice of Shangguan Shang!

Lin Yan's blade paused at the woman in blue's forehead.

Though the blade was restrained, it still left a bloodstain between her brows.

"Mastery of restraint, his saber technique is astonishingly strong..."

The red strange bird showed a look of terror.

While Lin Yan's gaze was fixed on Shangguan Shang's retreat place.

Only to see the Qi Mechanism soaring to the heavens, with unmatched power.

Shangguan Shang cultivated a Jade Muscle Immortal Body, with a body like jade, and blood flowing like magma.

He had melded the Great Sun Fire Prison into himself, forging a Leakless True Body.

In an instant, the world trembled, and the ten directions changed.

"It's done."

Lin Yan couldn't help but marvel.

To ascend to a Human Martial Saint, the essence, energy, and spirit must converge.

The body, physique, and heart realm all need to be stable.

Affected by the southern anomalies and suddenly attacked, it was inevitable to disturb his heart realm.

But still, after Lin Yan intercepted the Supreme Xuanyang Demon-sealing Nail, he quickly adjusted, stabilized himself, broke through the shackles, and ascended to a Human Martial Saint.

And at this moment, the Human Martial Saint, Shangguan Shang, looking at Lin Yan's blade, breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew that even if he had ascended to a Human Martial Saint, he could not match Master Lin Yan's skills, unable to stop that blade.

So he didn't even have time to exert mana to stop Lin Yan's blade, only shouting loudly once.

Fortunately, Master Lin Yan's blade technique was already superb, refined to the extreme, controlled at will.

Otherwise, this woman in blue would have perished here.

"Do you recognize her?"

Lin Yan's expression was indifferent, saying, "With the Phoenix Blood, an Imperial Blood God Demon, she seems to be coming against us…"

"Misunderstanding!"

The woman in blue's face changed dramatically, saying, "I am the Young Master of the Wind Spirit Tribe."

"I have seen you before."

Shangguan Shang's expression was cold, saying, "I once saw you rescuing members of the Human Clan, escorting them to the Wind Spirit Tribe for settlement. That's why I let the Master stop the blade, otherwise, you would have died already!"

Saying this, Shangguan Shang came forward, saying, "There was no enmity between us in the past, nor recently, the Wind Spirit Tribe is two thousand four hundred miles away from here, the journey is long, strange beings stand between, with my Upper Heaven, and even the thirty-six tribes here, there's no contact! Today, why did you come to assassinate?"

"Your skills..."

The woman in blue's face changed, saying, "Didn't you reach the so-called Ancestor Blood Saint relying on God Demon Bloodline? You are…"

"Human Martial Saint!"

Shangguan Shang said proudly, "Thanks to Master's guidance, I am now in the Human Clan's Saint Realm!"

"..."

The woman in blue had an unusual expression, after a long time, she gave a salute, saying, "I was too reckless."

She lifted her head, saying softly, "Not long ago, a Forbidden Land regained peace, my father used the Old God's weapon to seize the treasure within, called the River Map and Luo Book."

"Heavenly Mechanism Sacred Land?"

Lin Yan's eyes slightly narrowed.

"..."

The woman in blue was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "The previous form of that Forbidden Land was indeed known as the Heavenly Mechanism Sacred Land. After obtaining the River Map and Luo Book, my father was like a fish in water there, becoming stronger than in the outside world, capable of comparing with the surrounding Heavenly Demons, Holy Spirits, and Gods and Demons."
