In a simulated life scenario, how do you defy fate and change your destiny every time?

Chapter 122 Three Lifetimes: The Secret of the Divine Sea, the Five-Striped Demon Slayer!
Nanyang Prefecture.

Night falls.

Pingshan County is more than 100 miles away from Qingyun County.

Dozens of imposing figures, all dressed in black robes and exuding powerful auras, suddenly stepped into the Pingshan County Government Office as if they were returning home.

"Who are you? How dare you break into the county government office at night..."

A clerk on duty shouted sternly.

But he had only spoken halfway when his eyes suddenly widened as if he had seen something unbelievable.

The middle-aged man leading the group suddenly flipped his hand, revealing an ancient-looking token.

The token was heavy and imposing, with two bold, flowing characters engraved on a black background.

Slay the demon!

Upon seeing these two words, the duty officer felt a chill run down his spine, a cold sensation rising from his tailbone straight to the top of his head!
Before each high-ranking official and yamen runner takes up their post, they are given a stern warning by their superiors.

They can offend their superiors, but they must never provoke the people of the Demon Suppression Division.

Because the Demon Suppression Division is independent of the imperial court's official system and directly obeys the royal family, it has the power to execute first and report later.

Many matters concerning the Demon Suppression Division were even written into the imperial laws, which all officials were required to memorize.

According to the yamen runner on duty.

The token in the middle-aged man's hand was none other than the Demon Suppression Division's Demon Slaying Order!

If we're talking about the Demon Suppression Captain, then he's someone that most ordinary officials can't afford to offend.

The elusive demon slayers were the nightmare of countless demons and officials.

Because they are the elite of the Demon Suppression Division, specializing in slaying demons and eliminating evil.

Every time it appears, it is bound to unleash a massive bloodbath!
What troubled the officials of the Great Spirit most was...

Demon slayers not only exorcise demons, but they also kill people!
If they suddenly show up at your door, it could very well mean a bloody disaster!
"We are here on the orders of the Inspector General to go to Qingyun County to slay the demon."

"All officials of the Great Ling Dynasty have the responsibility to support the defense against the enemy!"

"Within half an incense stick's time, summon your Pingshan County Magistrate to see me."

The middle-aged man spoke calmly, his tone carrying an undeniable air of dominance.

"Yes, sir. Please wait a moment."

The yamen runner on duty nodded repeatedly in fright. Hearing that the middle-aged man had not come to kill anyone, he breathed a sigh of relief.

However, just as the yamen runner on duty hurriedly left, preparing to report the matter to the magistrate of Pingshan County.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of five gold stripes embroidered on the chest of the middle-aged man's black robe.

"A Five-Striped Demon Slayer?"

The yamen runner on duty shivered, staggered, and nearly fainted from fright.

This means that the other party has once killed a fifth-grade innate demon!
Once this kind of ruthless man gets angry, the entire Pingshan County wouldn't be enough for him to slaughter!
It didn't take long.

The magistrate of Pingshan County stumbled and crawled all the way to the county government office.

After questioning him, the middle-aged man obtained the information and intelligence he wanted from him.

He then mounted his horse and led his entourage back to Qingyun County.

Although the magistrate of Pingshan County is not clean himself, the most urgent task is to eliminate the demons.

As for how to deal with these corrupt officials in the future, that's up to the Nanyang Demon Suppression Division.

He was just helping out temporarily and didn't have time to deal with these trivial matters.

Under the still-shaken gaze of the magistrate of Pingshan County.

The group from the Demon Suppression Division quickly left the city gate.

Their warhorses possessed some demonic blood, had astonishing endurance, and could travel thousands of miles a day. They were fine steeds bred by the Demon Suppression Division using various methods.

If it were a regular convoy, it would take at least one or two days to travel from Pingshan County to Qingyun County.

But for the experts of the Demon Suppression Division, this distance was nothing at all.

But just as they were galloping at full speed and about to reach Qingyun County.

A beam of blood-red light shot into the sky, staining the distant sky crimson.

Birds and beasts within a ten-mile radius cried out in agony and scattered in all directions.

A strong smell of blood hit them, causing everyone's expression to change drastically!

"A beam of blood shot into the sky, an ominous sign. Could it be that demons are wreaking havoc?"

"Blind man, you have good eyesight, quickly take a look and see what's going on!"

The middle-aged man, Li Mu, immediately looked at the old man in the group who was leaning on a bamboo cane.

According to common sense.

This place is still more than ten miles away from Qingyun County. Even a Xiantian expert with divine sense might not be able to see this far.

What's more, a blind person who is completely blind in both eyes?

But the members of the Demon Suppression Division had an expression of indifference, as if they were not surprised at all.

The old man turned his dead fish eyes and stared intently in the direction of Qingyun County.

After a while.

He seemed to see something extremely terrifying, and suddenly turned his head to the side, closing his eyes tightly.

Two lines of tears slid down his cheeks, stinging his eyes!
"What kind of swordsmanship is this? It's so sharp that it actually injured my heart!"

The old man squatted on the ground, hurriedly covering his eyes, cursing in pain.

The other members of the Demon Suppression Division were all taken aback upon seeing this.

Although the old man in front of me has been blind for decades, he has cultivated a special secret technique.

It can open the mind's eye, allowing one to see the flaws in all things in the world, and is even more acute than the divine sense of a primordial martial arts cultivator!

The last time the blind man was injured from a distance was because he couldn't resist the urge to use his skills and secretly traveled dozens of miles away to try to spy on the inspector's cultivation level.

As a result, he almost got his head slapped off by the magistrate's glare.

But they didn't expect it.

In Qingyun County, such a remote and impoverished place, how could someone possibly injure a blind man?

Although the blind man was not on guard before he used his mind-reading ability.

But to be able to injure a blind man from more than ten miles away, such terrifying strength is enough to make people tremble!

"Blind man, what exactly did you see?"

Li Mu conjured a pill out of thin air and handed it to the blind man.

After taking the medicine, the blind man's condition finally improved, and he then recounted everything he had just seen.

Just now, when he activated his mind's eye, he saw the birth of the demonic acacia tree, with a sea of ​​blood surging everywhere.

Just as Qingyun County was about to face a catastrophic disaster.

A blade of light powerful enough to tear through the darkness suddenly appeared, tearing open the sea of ​​blood and cleaving countless demons in two!
That slash of light was so sharp it illuminated the entire night sky; it was simply not human-made!
If he hadn't closed his mind in time, his secret technique, which he had painstakingly cultivated for decades, would probably have been shattered with a single strike!

The power of that strike was absolutely terrifying.

This was still from a distance of more than ten miles; if it were to strike flesh and blood directly...

Thinking of this, the blind man felt a chill run down his spine and couldn't help but shudder.

"A demonic locust tree? The glint of a sword? Could it be that the thousand-year-old demonic locust tree from Black Wind Ridge has descended the mountain?"

"It seems that a martial arts master of innate level came to the rescue and stopped the demonic locust tree."

Li Mu speculated in his mind.

He never dreamed that the person who blocked that thousand-year-old demonic locust tree was not a martial arts master with innate abilities.

It was a toddler who was only two years old!

"We must set off immediately! The Inspector has given a death order: we must exterminate all the demons of Black Wind Ridge this time!"

Li Mu mounted his horse and hurried towards Qingyun County.

As a five-striped demon slayer, he did not have a fixed area of ​​duty.

Normally, they would go to the area where the demonic threat was most severe to provide assistance.

He was specially transferred by Sikong Lie to be in charge of wiping out the demons of Black Wind Ridge.

After all, that thousand-year-old demonic locust tree had been famous for a long time, possessing over a thousand years of cultivation, and was a renowned innate demon within a hundred miles.

Standing before this ancient, demonic locust tree.

Let alone ordinary innate martial arts practitioners, even Li Mu himself was unsure.

He knew the mission would be difficult, and he had prepared for the worst, even writing his will in advance.

But who knew that a powerful innate expert would suddenly appear along the way?
Furthermore, this innate martial arts cultivator's strength was in no way inferior to that thousand-year-old demonic locust tree.

This was undoubtedly fantastic news for Li Mu and his group!
Black Wind Ridge ruled the mountain as king, wreaking havoc on the region.

If they can successfully complete this mission, they will surely gain immense merit and wealth!

……

While Li Mu and his companions were still on their way.

the other side.

Outside Qingyun County.

Blood flowed like a river and corpses were everywhere.

The pungent smell of blood permeated the air, almost enveloping the entire Qingyun County.

Countless demons died with their eyes wide open, staring in disbelief, lying in pools of blood.

Originally, the demons of Black Wind Ridge came in anger, attempting to massacre the entire Qingyun County.

But who knows.

A young figure, wielding a blood-red blade, stood alone before all the great demons!
He appeared young and inexperienced, yet the murderous aura emanating from him was almost tangible.

Standing there, he was like a peerless god of death emerging from the depths of hell, causing all demons to tremble with fear!

"Damn it! He's just a mere human child, how can he be so powerful?"

The ape demon stared at Lu Yuan with venomous eyes, wishing it could devour him alive.

But when Lu Yuan glanced in its direction, the ape demon hurriedly lowered its head, not even daring to meet his gaze!

Because that last strike not only instantly killed more than a dozen third-rank demons.

It also severed the pride and backbone in the hearts of all the demons with a single stroke!
On the ape demon's abdomen was a shockingly huge wound, which almost cut it in half!

Blood gushed from the wound like a fountain. If the ape demon hadn't held it tightly with its hand, its internal organs and intestines would probably have fallen out!

"This is terrifying! This is simply superhuman power!"

The ape demon's face turned deathly pale, and he was sweating profusely from the pain.

If it hadn't been standing at the very back of the group, it would probably have already fallen into a pool of blood and become a victim of Lu Yuan's blade!
As for the demons who were lucky enough to survive, they were so frightened that they dared not take another step forward.

In fact.

If it weren't for an elderly man in gray robes with white hair and beard standing behind them, they probably would have fled in panic long ago, not daring to stay for even a moment!

"Interesting. The human race's 'lone star' is indeed extraordinary. He's still young, yet he's grown to such an extent?"

"At the age of two, he has already developed divine sense, or is he the reincarnation of a powerful martial artist?"

The thousand-year-old demonic locust tree stared intently at Lu Yuan.

When it sensed the immense blood energy and life force within Lu Yuan's body, which was as vast as rivers and seas, a hint of greed flashed in its aged eyes.

Although the Lone Star of Heaven brings misfortune to one's fate, it is a rare and highly nourishing substance for demons.

If I can refine it into a flesh and blood medicine, I might be able to break through to the sixth-grade Divine Sea Realm in this lifetime!

"Boy, if you give up resisting and cooperate obediently, I can grant you one wish before you die."

The thousand-year-old demonic locust tree spoke in a hoarse voice, its tone carrying an undisguised arrogance.

Lu Yuan's strike just now was somewhat amazing, enough to dominate the entire fourth-grade Transcendent Realm.

But in the eyes of this innate great demon, it was nothing more than that.

All beings below the heavens are but ants.

No matter how extraordinary Lu Yuan's talent was, he could not overcome the enormous gap between the Transcendent and the Innate realms.

Lu Yuan ignored the words of the Thousand-Year Demon Locust Tree and simply swung his Blood Butcher sword again.

Wind and Thunder Blade Technique, Third Form: Burying the Moon!

A flash of cold light appeared, cleaving the entire night sky in two!
Since Lu Yuan condensed his divine sense and stepped into the Transcendent Realm, the power of this strike is at least ten times stronger than before.

In particular, a trace of divine thought was attached to the blood-red blade light.

It can not only sever the physical body, but also damage the soul!

Seeing that Lu Yuan dared to ignore him, a flash of anger appeared in the ancient eyes of the thousand-year-old demon locust tree.

This time, it didn't stand idly by; instead, it let out a cold snort.

A mighty divine thought descended from the sky, like an invisible mountain blocking the path of all the demons.

Lu Yuan's blood-red blade light, which was extremely powerful and invincible, was now like a mud ox sinking into the sea.

Its speed gradually decreased until it eventually dissipated into the air, unable to cause any harm to the other powerful demons!

Lu Yuan's expression changed slightly as he realized for the first time the enormous gap between Transcendent and Innate martial artists, a gap that seemed like an insurmountable chasm.

Especially in his perception.

The divine sense of this thousand-year-old demonic locust tree was vast and boundless, like refined steel, far more solid and powerful than my own!

"The ants of the world only think that innate martial arts practitioners rely on the advantages of their physical body and true essence."

"But little do they know that the divine sense of innate martial cultivators has infinite uses and is the source of all power!"

The thousand-year-old demonic locust tree stood with its hands behind its back, speaking arrogantly.

Compared to martial arts practitioners at the Transcendent Realm.

The essence, energy, and spirit of innate martial arts practitioners have undergone a qualitative transformation.

The ordinary flesh and blood body has been transformed into a primordial body.

Ordinary true qi is also transformed into innate true essence.

Even the most difficult spiritual qualities to cultivate have been condensed into divine thoughts.

However, many low-level martial arts practitioners, as well as those self-taught practitioners without a master's lineage, are unaware of this.

Divine sense is the greatest reliance of innate martial arts practitioners.

While innate physical constitution and innate true essence are important, the soul is of paramount importance.

For innate martial arts practitioners at this level, the most important thing is to do everything possible to strengthen their soul.

Once a primordial martial artist transforms an ordinary soul into a primordial divine soul, the gate to the divine sea will open accordingly!

The biggest difference between transcending the mortal realm and being innate lies in the physical body and true essence.

Then, a Divine Sea Realm expert, with just their innate divine soul, would be able to crush all innate martial cultivators!
This thousand-year-old demonic locust tree once received the true teachings of the Ten Thousand Demon Cave and has been in seclusion in Black Wind Ridge for so many years, so it has obviously touched a trace of the essence of the Divine Sea Realm!
Although it is still a long way from entering the Divine Sea Realm, it has already grasped the correct direction for moving forward.

With just a few hundred more years of arduous cultivation, he can become a true divine sea demon!

How could Lu Yuan, a mere two-year-old child, possibly be its match?
