"Damn it, I, the Holy Son, cannot lose to you!!"

Seeing the Human Emperor Sword transform into a dragon shadow and shoot towards him, Zhang Hao's face twisted as he shouted.

A mirror floated before him, then emitted a destructive wave.

The Great Sun Heavenly Wheel Mirror!

This was a Saint King-level treasure he had found in some ruins. Although the mirror was shattered and had lost its former power, its material was still more terrifying than many holy weapons.

As the true essence of the sun and the power of blood and energy poured into it, the Great Sun Heavenly Wheel Mirror unleashed a terrifying power, activating a trace of the Saint King's might contained within.

But before this power could erupt, the secret realm trembled violently, and a force of rules descended with a roar.

It firmly suppressed the mirror.

Boom!!

Unable to unleash power beyond the secret realm's limits, the Great Sun Heavenly Wheel Mirror ultimately couldn't withstand the Human Emperor Sword.

With the collision between the Human Emperor Sword and the Great Sun Heavenly Wheel Mirror, the mirror was easily blasted away by the Human Emperor Sword.

"No!!"

"We are fellow disciples, you can't..."

Seeing the Great Sun Heavenly Wheel Mirror being blasted away, Zhang Hao, in a life-and-death crisis, tried to activate the protective jade pendant on him.

But under the suppression of the secret realm's rules.

These powerful trump cards, capable of unleashing Tongtian-level power to save his life at critical moments, all lost their original function.

So Zhang Hao could only be pierced through by the Human Emperor Sword, unable to dodge.

A bizarre scene occurred.

The moment the Human Emperor Sword pierced through, Zhang Hao's entire body shriveled up on the spot.

All his blood, flesh, and essence were completely devoured, and his body exploded into ashes after turning into a dried corpse.

Even his soul.

Under the effect of a mysterious force, it turned into a stream of light and entered Xiao Ming's forehead.

Only a storage ring and tattered clothes fell to the ground.

"Xiao Ming, you actually killed Zhang Hao!!"

"The Sacred Master won't spare you once he finds out!!"

Seeing Zhang Hao die tragically on the spot in just a moment, leaving not even a hair behind, his body turning directly into ashes, and his soul being devoured by an unknown force, Chen Pingzhi and the others shouted in terror.

The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.

As soon as the words fell, they didn't hesitate.

They immediately unleashed their cultivation and rushed into the forest.

But before the three of them could escape, terrifying true essence fluctuations erupted in three directions. Feng Xianhuang, Su Qingyue, and Yun Ling had already spread out around them.

Forming a triangular encirclement, they trapped the group.

And they kept enough distance between each other to ensure that no more than five people were within a thirty-meter range at the same time.

With the explosion of roaring sounds.

Chen Pingzhi and the others were forced back, their faces showing anger and fear.

"Don't worry..."

"The Sacred Master won't know!"

Xiao Ming spoke with a chilling tone, forming seals with his hands to control the Human Emperor Sword, beginning to hunt down Chen Pingzhi and the others like a predator.

"No!!"

"Xiao Ming, you won't die a good death..."

In desperate screams, accompanied by the eruption of blood and true essence, even when Chen Pingzhi and the others unleashed their strongest attacks.

Under Xiao Ming's full activation of the Human Emperor Sword, they were as fragile as ants.

In just a short moment.

With the Human Emperor Sword weaving back and forth, the three of them also turned into dried corpses.

Such a terrifying scene.

Left Feng Xianhuang and Su Qingyue and the others in shock.

They never expected.

Xiao Ming actually possessed such a terrifying and evil weapon of mass destruction.

"An Imperial Weapon?!"

Staring intently at the Soul Devouring Sword for a while, Feng Xianhuang's breathing became more rapid. She had already discerned the clues from this sword.

After slaying Zhang Hao and the others, the sword actually had a fluctuation of rules on it?!

There's no mistake!

This is definitely the power of an Imperial Weapon!

But she couldn't understand why the power of this Imperial Weapon was so weak, unable to unleash power beyond the secret realm.

But even so.

Xiao Ming could still rely on the material of this Imperial Weapon and that extremely bizarre devouring ability to reduce Zhang Hao and the others to ashes.

"It's getting dark, hurry inside!"

Just as Feng Xianhuang was about to ask something, Xiao Ming noticed the night had completely engulfed the secret realm.

His strength was suppressed by thirty percent, and he immediately spoke to Feng Xianhuang and the others.

After speaking.

He waved his hand to collect the remnants left by Zhang Hao and the others, then entered the small wooden hut first.

Feng Xianhuang, Su Qingyue, and the others followed without hesitation.

As the wooden door closed.

The entire secret realm suddenly echoed with eerie howls, countless demons and ghosts crawling out from the shadows at that moment.

Whether in the sky or on the ground, demons and ghosts could be seen.

And they were even more bloodthirsty and brutal than during the day!

Some outsiders who were alone and hadn't made it to a shelter could only die in agony under the pursuit of these ghosts.

No matter how strong they were, they would eventually be killed in the monster tide!

Even outside the small wooden hut.

Xiao Ming and the others could feel the presence of monsters prowling and howling, even wanting to break into the hut and tear them to pieces.

But as the runes engraved on the hut erupted with dazzling golden light.

These monsters, as if severely injured, could only give up attacking and linger around the hut.

"The night... truly unbeatable."

Feeling the strength of the ghosts outside the hut, Xiao Ming's face showed a trace of solemnity.

Even though he had the Human Emperor Sword and Human Emperor Banner, even if he wielded these two treasures, it would be difficult for him to survive in the wild.

After all.

Under the suppression of the secret realm's rules.

These two Imperial Weapons couldn't exert power beyond the limit, and his blood and soul power weren't infinite.

Once exhausted, even the Chaos Body would perish.

This Ghost Fiend Secret Realm is indeed perilous.

In a murmuring tone.

Xiao Ming took out a Night Pearl, illuminating the small wooden hut.

Only then did he realize...

This small wooden hut was like a tiny tent, with nothing inside except a few blood-stained ropes.

And Feng Xianhuang, Su Qingyue, and the others were looking at him with uncertain expressions.

"What's wrong?"

"Is there blood on my face?"

Seeing the gazes of the three women, Xiao Ming touched his face, asking with some confusion.

"No..."

"It's just that the sword you used earlier, Brother Xiao Ming, was terrifying, even more so than some demonic treasures."

"Will it... control your mind?"

Su Qingyue shook her head at the question, her voice tense as she asked.

Generally speaking.

The more sinister something is, the easier it is to breed evil.

Once a demonic weapon or evil object breeds evil, it will turn back to control the host, turning the host into a puppet.

The sword Xiao Ming had just wielded gave them that kind of feeling.

Able to devour the blood and flesh of living beings.

And with each kill, it grew a bit stronger, such things were the easiest to breed evil.

"Don't worry."

"This is a righteous treasure, it just looks a bit scary, and is used to intimidate."

"But in fact, it's a sword forged by the ancient Human Emperor, a sword of justice used to judge the sins of all beings."

Hearing Su Qingyue's question, Xiao Ming spouted nonsense.

This made Su Qingyue and Yun Ling's mouths twitch involuntarily, but Su Qingyue showed an expression of admiration after listening.

"The Human Emperor Sword?!"

"Does that mean Brother Xiao Ming, you've been chosen by the ancient Human Emperor, and might become the new Human Emperor of this era?"

Pfft!!

Hearing Su Qingyue's words.

Feng Xianhuang and Yun Ling almost spat out a mouthful of blood, each looking at Su Qingyue with speechless expressions.

Is this girl just single-minded and unable to think, or does she have one hundred percent trust in Xiao Ming?

Whatever he says, she believes.

Not even afraid of being deceived by him in the future, leaving nothing behind.
