Divine Seal: From a Heavy Sword to Slicing Through the Holy Demon Continent

Moreover, the true limit is never something that can be described.

The limits are squeezed out bit by bit!

Chapter 24 The Hidden Demonic Nature, Long Haochen's Choice

The battle is about to break out.

Unlike knights, monsters don't exchange polite salutes before engaging in combat.

The moment Long Haoyu made a move, all ten scorpion-tailed lizards charged forward, their eyes turning red.

Despite its seemingly small size of only four feet, it crawls very quickly on the ground.

Long Haoyu carefully examined the venomous hooks of the scorpion-tailed lizards, while Wu Feng handled them with ease, his hands gleaming with a dark light.

"Brother, let me help you!"

Long Haochen didn't dare to hesitate and grabbed the bamboo sword, rushing towards the scorpion-tailed lizard that Long Haoyu had instructed him to kill.

He only needed to deal with one enemy, and he didn't want to become a hindrance at this point.

Upon seeing Long Haochen alone, the scorpion-tailed lizard on the far right took the initiative to attack, turning its direction and charging directly at Long Haochen.

Its ferocious teeth opened wide, looking as if it was about to bite Long Haochen's thigh off.

At the same time, the poisoned hook stabbed towards Long Haochen.

Long Haochen carefully dodged, his bamboo sword slashing fiercely towards the scorpion-tailed lizard's head, while his body instinctively turned in the opposite direction from where the poisonous hook was coming from.

The man and the beast immediately engaged in battle.

The battle between Long Haoyu and the remaining nine scorpion-tailed lizards also began at this time.

Monsters are beasts by nature and have a natural sense of danger. They seem to charge forward ferociously, but in reality, they circle around Long Haoyu.

After observing for a while, seeing that the last scorpion-tailed lizard had started fighting with Long Haochen, all nine of them swarmed over.

Long Haoyu made no unnecessary movements. The Wufeng sword was not an ordinary bamboo sword. It carried the rudiments of a knight's skill and headed towards a scorpion-tailed lizard directly in front of him.

"Deadly Thrust!"

The dark light pierced through, and Wufeng was shoved directly into the scorpion-tailed lizard's mouth. Then, with a flick of his wrist, he sliced ​​open the soft flesh of the scorpion-tailed lizard's abdomen.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye; a scorpion-tailed lizard had already died at Long Haoyu's hands.

However, in that instant of attack, the remaining eight scorpion-tailed lizards simultaneously lunged at us from several other directions.

Long Haoyu leaped into the air, not confident that he had a head of bronze and bones of iron and could be bitten by the scorpion-tailed lizard without being affected.

This isn't the Shadow Dimension; there aren't conditions for him to recover so quickly. If he's injured, he's injured; if he dies, he's really dead.

Dodging the barrage of attacks, Long Haoyu used his strength to create space on the stone wall, while numerous owl ants swarmed in at that moment.

There seems to be a tacit, animalistic understanding between the two.

"hiss--"

Long Haoyu gasped.

He was so focused on the scorpion-tailed lizard that he neglected the owl ants, and the pain from their bites caused him to make a small mistake.

The scorpion-tailed lizards, however, were unaffected by the owl ants. Their magical beast hides were sturdy enough to withstand the biting and attack once more.

While Long Haochen was dealing with the last scorpion-tailed lizard, his current strength was 40 points, which was more than enough to handle a single scorpion-tailed lizard.

He spared some attention to observe Long Haoyu's situation. In the short time they had been fighting, he noticed that Long Haoyu had sustained many injuries.

The carnage of owl ants, and the bruises from the venomous stings of scorpion-tailed lizards.

"You go to hell!"

Long Haochen seemed to be on drugs, and his strength suddenly increased significantly.

All the spiritual power in his body was focused on the bamboo sword, which struck the scorpion-tailed lizard with a slight whooshing sound.

The scorpion-tailed lizard was slashed and sent flying, its body leaving the ground. Seeing this, Long Haochen silently recited the scorpion-tailed lizard's weakness and thrust his bamboo sword straight through.

With a soft "plop," the bamboo sword pierced the scorpion-tailed lizard's abdomen, and the lizard's poisonous hook followed suit.

Long Haochen hurriedly dodged, narrowly avoiding the final attack of the poisonous hook. He looked at the scorpion-tailed lizard that was still struggling and breathed heavily.

After a while, the scorpion-tailed lizard stopped struggling. It didn't get a full meal and died at Long Haochen's hands.

Long Haochen hurriedly drew the bamboo sword from the belly of his scorpion-tailed lizard and looked at Long Haoyu, who was still fighting with the scorpion-tailed lizard.

Of the nine scorpion-tailed lizards, only three remain, while Long Haoyu has sustained even more injuries.

Long Haochen was very surprised. In the time it took him to deal with one scorpion-tailed lizard, his older brother had already taken care of six.

Moreover, the ants that should have treated the two equally were now mostly gathered around Long Haoyu's side.

"Brother, let me help you!" Long Haochen shouted, making a move to rush out.

"Don't come over!"

With a loud shout, Long Haoyu once again slashed at a scorpion-tailed lizard with his bladeless hand.

At the same time, the pupils in the center of his azure eyes had shrunk to the size of a pinhead.

Compared to his usual gentleness, his gaze now held a coldness.

Beneath the cold exterior, something else seems to be hidden.

Long Haoyu immediately noticed his unusual behavior and quickly realized why.

"Is this the power of the bloodline dormant within me?"

"My grandfather's bloodline demonic nature seems to be quite powerful!"

"Today's training session actually brought an unexpected surprise!"

Long Haoyu silently chanted in his heart, feeling the changes within himself, and his battered body regained a lot of strength.

He hadn't expected that, despite having plenty of energy to deal with the scorpion-tailed lizards, he would achieve a small breakthrough while facing the attack of nine scorpion-tailed lizards at the same time, and even stimulate the deepest power within his body.

Stimulated by these forces, Long Haoyu found it easier to deal with the remaining three scorpion-tailed lizards. The dark light emanating from the bladeless sword in his hand had become a deadly force for these three scorpion-tailed lizards.

Long Haochen was stunned by Long Haoyu's loud shout, especially when he saw the suddenly unfamiliar coldness in Long Haoyu's eyes, and he felt a shiver for no reason.

"Why has my brother suddenly become so scary?"

"Is it because dealing with so many scorpion-tailed lizards at the same time has reached the limit mentioned in the book?"

Long Haochen whispered, looking at the wounds on Long Haoyu's body, his eyes filled with worry, and his heart clenched with anxiety.

"If only I could provide my brother with some treatment, he would be able to feel more at ease during times like this."

"Dad said there are two types of knights: Retribution Knights and Guardian Knights. My brother is determined to become a Retribution Knight, and I..."

The light in Long Haochen's eyes grew brighter, reflecting the choice that Long Xingyu had told him about a year later.

Now, for some inexplicable reason, he has become resolute in his heart.

“That’s right, if my brother wants to walk the path of the Retribution Knight, then I will walk the path of the Guardian Knight!”

"Only in this way can I provide my brother with enough healing while he fights, so that he can fight better!"

"After today's training, I'll tell my dad my decision!"

"Dad should approve of the choice I made!"

Chapter 25 I Want to Be a Guardian Knight!

The Heaven-Defying Demonic Dragon Clan.

He was born with the strength of a seventh-tier expert.

Once one reaches adulthood, one can reach the eighth rank.

This demonstrates just how powerful the bloodline of the Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon Clan truly is, living up to its name of defying the heavens.

Long Haoyu was well aware of this, and it was impossible for him to avoid the sudden activation of these bloodline powers. He had even begun to enjoy this kind of enhancement.

With such bloodline and the restless demonic energy within him, the scorpion-tailed lizard in his eyes had become unusually slow.

With Wufeng's slash, the remaining three scorpion-tailed lizards, who were already at a disadvantage compared to when all nine attacked together, were now swiftly and decisively killed by Wufeng.

The smell of blood filled the air, and the remaining owl ants did not swarm around again. Their buzzing and arguing seemed to have a tremor in their voices.

The ants stopped swarming around and biting, and Long Haoyu was happy to have some peace and quiet. He planted the sword, Wufeng, heavily in the ground and braced himself on the hilt.

The heavy, panting sounds, like those of an old ox, echoed continuously in the cave, each breath seemingly carrying a faint, almost imperceptible, dragon's roar.

"Brother, you're injured." Seeing that Long Haoyu had finished fighting, Long Haochen quickly came forward to help him.

Long Haoyu caught his breath for a moment, then straightened up and said, "It's nothing, just some scorpion-tailed lizards. There was just a small accident, nothing to worry about."

"But……"

"Haochen, relax!"

Long Haoyu reassured his younger brother's worries and gradually adapted to the changes in his body.

Unlike in the original timeline, when Long Haochen suddenly activated such bloodline power, he didn't understand why these changes were happening.

But things were different for him. He understood everything, and when he dealt with the last three scorpion-tailed lizards, he consciously adapted to this power boost.

With such deliberate effort, even though the battle is over, he can still vaguely sense where that power is hidden.

Given this foundation, it wouldn't be too difficult to reactivate this power. Under his deliberate effort, his body's recovery speed even accelerated considerably.

It took him a full half hour to gradually adapt to this power.

"With this unexpected improvement, this subject should be added to the subsequent training in the Shadow Space."

"If I can develop these bloodline powers as soon as possible, my path as a punitive knight will be much smoother!"

Long Haoyu pondered to himself, and made up his mind about this idea.

Other places, especially within the jurisdiction of the Federation of Humanities, are not very suitable for developing this force.

However, there is absolutely no need to worry about this in the shadow space.

"Brother, if I were a guardian knight, do you think I could have helped you more in the battle just now?"
