Qin Xin, a young man from the Qin Clan, had his martial bones stolen by his own clansmen. However, he accidentally acquired a Soul-Swallowing Stone and obtained the Supreme Divine Soul Art, embarki...
In a simple village.
All around were people dressed in very simple clothes.
The men were all shirtless, with their lower bodies covered by animal hides. The women did the same, using simple woven fabrics to cover their sensitive areas.
"My esteemed messenger! Welcome to our arrival!"
"We have prepared beautiful women and men for your amusement!"
An elderly man with white hair slowly walked out from the crowd, followed by several strong men and a beautiful woman.
There was fear in their eyes, and their legs trembled as they stood there.
Then all the villagers knelt down, as if holding a welcoming ceremony for the three demons.
"good!"
The female demon at the head of the group, upon seeing the three strong human men, revealed a hidden glint in her eyes.
The two demons beside him casually tossed Qin Xin and Jin Yuanbao aside.
His eyes were also fixed on the human women, as if he couldn't wait any longer.
"Send them all to our accounting office!"
The leading female demon spoke up and gave the order.
The white-haired old man, who resembled the village chief, had a hint of sadness in his eyes.
However, he still gestured to the young men beside him, telling them to go to the accounting office.
These people seemed to know what would happen to them once they entered there; their eyes revealed a hint of fear. But after glancing at the crowd around them, they looked like warriors ready to sacrifice themselves.
With a determined look on his face, he walked step by step toward a rather large accounting office in the center of the village.
Seeing that these people were so sensible, the female demon also smiled.
"These two will join your village from now on!"
After speaking, the female demon led the other two directly into the accounting room.
Qin Xin had been lying to the side and never expected to see such a scene. He was very puzzled by what these people were doing.
Through his spiritual sense, Qin Xin could feel that the old man in front of him was also at the peak of the Yuan Dan realm, and many of the humans around him were also at the Yuan Dan realm.
With such strength, he could easily kill these three demons whose strength was around the Yuan Dan realm.
But now they are letting these people go unchecked, even offering up the villagers without any resistance.
This action puzzled Qin Xin greatly.
After sensing the aura emanating from the accounting room, Qin Xin could no longer hold back.
As soon as he opened his eyes, a powerful Dharma Realm space was released, enveloping the entire accounting room.
For a moment, all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the surrounding area was shut out, and ordinary martial artists had no way of knowing what was going on here.
The three demons realized what was happening and tried to escape, but Qin Xin's powerful Yuan energy locked them in place.
After the Xingtian Sword shot out rapidly, the heads of the three demons were directly severed, and they lost all their life force.
The white-haired village chief, who had just witnessed this scene, also showed a hint of surprise in his eyes.
After seeing several human men and women run out of the accounting room, he seemed to understand something and ran straight into it.
Qin Xin used his spiritual sense to try and understand what the village chief was doing.
When he discovered that the village chief had entered, he was holding a long, thorny wooden stick and was stabbing it into the hearts of the demons one by one.
At this moment, Qin Xin noticed that the aura that these demons had been hiding had finally dissipated.
Only then did he realize that the fatal flaw of these demons lay in their hearts; simply severing their heads would not kill them.
After the white-haired village chief ran out, he spoke to Qin Xin with great respect.
"I suppose you are the person from the outside world that our ancestors spoke of."
Qin Xin was somewhat surprised by what the white-haired old man said.
After all, before entering this place, he had seen too many demons and imprisoned humans.
The people living here are treated like livestock, at the mercy of others.
"Are you talking about the Tianxuan Continent?" Qin Xin asked with some doubt.
Upon hearing about the Tianxuan Continent, the old man's eyes welled up with tears, and he said in a trembling voice, "Indeed! After thousands of years, someone has finally come to save us!"
Upon hearing the old man's words, some of the elderly people around him had tears welling up in their eyes, but some of the young people seemed a little confused and didn't know what had happened.
"Old man, what does 'several thousand years' mean?"
"And what exactly happened here? Why are there so many demons?"
Qin Xin asked with some curiosity.
The white-haired old man's eyes seemed lost in memories as he slowly spoke, "My name is Gaia."
"This history is too long ago. We were imprisoned here by the demons for thousands of years. Many things could not be recorded and could only be passed down orally until my generation."
"According to our ancestors, we were once members of the Jin clan on the Tianxuan Continent. Because we discovered the existence of strange fire in this space, our entire clan moved here."
"Initially, the strange fire here greatly helped the clansmen's cultivation."
"The strength of the tribe has also been greatly improved."
"Our ancestors built this place into a ancestral home, and the city not far away was established by our ancestors."
"However, some problems arose later."
"The power of the strange fire is too great; even our ancestors could not completely suppress it."
"When it suddenly erupted, it suddenly tore a crack in a space."
"Then countless demonic energies invaded, and our ancestors were also corrupted by them. While they still retained their last shred of sanity, they sent some of their clansmen out of here."
"And they completely sealed off this space."
"Later, the demons entered this place through the crack and imprisoned all the remaining members of their race."
"Although they didn't kill us, they treated us like livestock, making us reproduce so that they could have a stable food supply."
After listening to Gaia's account, Qin Xin felt a surge of hatred towards the demons.
After all, he couldn't tolerate treating humans like livestock.
"Grandpa, I sympathize with your situation."
"But my abilities are also limited here."
"It might be a bit complicated to rescue you all."
Qin Xin knew his own limitations. Although he was now a Dharma Aspect Realm martial artist, he also knew that there were countless demons in that city.
If I were to try to leave with so many people, I'm afraid I'd perish here myself.
"Don't worry, our ancestors left us a way to eliminate the demons here."
As the old man Gaia slowly stepped forward, a glimmer of hope appeared in his eyes.
"How to eliminate the demon race?"
Qin Xin let out a low murmur.
