Villain: After I died, all the heroines cried themselves to sleep.

From the very beginning, Luo Chuan had the idea of ​​forcing the Shadow Demon to show himself.

The Shadow Demon, who had been chased to the outside of the wall by Jiang Xueyi, returned to the capital city.

This shows that he had reasons to stay in the capital.

Luo Chuan based his argument on this point.

They boasted extensively about the Dark Moon Sword's reconnaissance and pursuit capabilities.

Draw the Shadow Fiend's attention and make him feel a sense of threat.

His subsequent collaboration with Jiang Xueyi further amplified this threat.

According to Luo Chuan's speculation.

The Shadow Fiend deliberately created a disturbance through his ostentatious actions.

They will most likely target Xu Xiaojin, who lacks the ability to protect herself.

This approach allows them to eliminate the threat with minimal risk while simultaneously generating significant media attention and diverting the focus of the Beijing police force.

So when Xu Xiaojin suddenly discovered the Shadow Demon's whereabouts, Jiang Xueyi went to chase after it alone.

Luo Chuan felt that the other party was using a diversionary tactic.

So they decided to play along.

They set a trap, waiting for Shadow Fiend to fall into it.

Trying it won't get you pregnant.

of course.

As cautious as Luo Chuan.

It's impossible for him to be a top commentator and explain the whole story to Shadow Fiend.

After all, he was the villain.

The villain dies because he talks too much.

"Let's all attack together. There's no need to talk about human rights or morality when dealing with antisocial criminals who harm humanity."

Luo Chuan said shamelessly, raising his sword finger.

The sword of ether condensed around him.

"This is a righteous three against one."

"Fourth, fifth, and sixth rank, you think you can contend with me? It seems you know nothing about seventh-rank Martial Grandmaster."

The Shadow Demon grinned madly.

"Screen".

He struck first, unleashing a torrent of shadows.

It transformed into a pitch-black curtain that swallowed starlight and fell.

"Heavenly Lock Sword Formation - Modified"

Luo Chuan coldly rebuked.

Twelve ethereal swords were arrayed in formation.

Then he suddenly pushed his hand towards the screen in the sky.

"The Twelve Earthly Branches – Ox!"

Clang!

A colossal sword, capable of striking with immense force, swept across the sky.

Under Luo Chuan's control, it crashed violently into the screen.

stab.

The giant sword shattered layer by layer, tearing a crack in the screen.

At this moment, Ye Ling wielded two daggers and slashed towards the gap.

Luo Chuan seized the opportunity to gather strength and draw his sword.

"The front line."

A cutting line appeared in the void.

Under the combined attack of the two.

The giant screen was finally broken open.

"The gap in skill level is too great; we cannot win in a direct confrontation."

Ye Ling said with a frown.

Luo Chuan looked at Shadow Demon.

Countless viscous shadows loomed.

Shadow Fiend was calm and collected, already prepared for the next wave of attacks.

It took both of them their full strength to block one of the opponent's attacks.

And the attack just now.

The Shadow Fiend can cast it countless times.

"Shadow Abyss".

The pitch-black shadows cascaded down like a waterfall.

Luo Chuan and Ye Ling joined forces to cut the waterfall in half.

However, the power of shadow was inexhaustible and could not be completely blocked.

In this critical moment.

"alright!"

Ms. Kobayashi's voice came through the phone.

She was solemn and dignified as she activated her innate abilities.

"The Law of Reason Grants - Advancement".

next second.

The barrier she set up emitted a hazy glow.

Luo Chuan and Ye Ling were caught up in it.

His spiritual power surged instantly.

"Eating it will give me power?!"

Luo Chuan was very shocked.

What kind of overpowered support is this?

His cultivation level quickly reached the fifth rank, and he was even breaking through to the sixth rank.

Unexpectedly, Ms. Kobayashi was also dumbfounded.

"Wait a minute, fifth rank is one thing, but how come you can break through to sixth rank?"

The upgrade barrier has significant limitations.

Inspired by Mr. Kobayashi's level of attainment, and limited by his own ability to break through bottlenecks.

It is impossible to improve indefinitely.

For reference only.

After Ye Ling advanced to the next level.

His spiritual energy quality reached the sixth level, but his cultivation level remained at the fifth level.

Luo Chuan didn't care about that.

"If I've barely reached the sixth rank, then I'm going to go all out!"

He pointed his sword and his gaze sharpened.

"Heavenly Lock Sword Formation - Modified"

"The Twenty-Four Sea-Stabilizing Sword Formation!"

hum-

The sword of ether resonates.

It transformed into a towering, sea-stabilizing iron pillar that brought peace to the land.

boom!

The earth and sky shook violently.

The Shadow Abyss collapsed and disintegrated instantly.

Shadow Demon stared in astonishment as he watched Luo Chuan break through his attack with a single blow.

"This kind of spiritual skill has definitely reached or even surpassed S-rank."

Spiritual skills of S rank or higher are extremely rare.

And it is extremely difficult to cultivate.

Luo Chuan, a martial arts student with no special background, was able to learn an S-level spiritual skill.

It's actually quite incredible.

"It's just an S-rank spiritual skill, what's so surprising about it?"

Luo Chuan remained calm and composed, unleashing his sword formation to crush the Shadow Demon.

Shadow Fiend is no longer as composed as before.

He composed himself.

Controlling the shadows around him, he clashed with the Ether Sword Formation.

Thanks to his superior realm, Shadow Fiend still maintains the upper hand.

But before he could break through the sword formation...

Ye Ling then attacked from the side, striking directly at the Shadow Demon's vitals.

Suddenly.

The shadows around the Shadow Fiend spread, creating ripples.

A giant claw reached out before Ye Ling could react.

They blasted her away.

Luo Chuan crossed the void and caught Ye Ling.

Look around.

The viscous shadows transformed into a bottomless black pool.

Like gates to the abyss, they continuously unleash bizarre and monstrous creatures.

Even the sealed barrier became shaky and on the verge of collapse.

"There are too many demons; the barrier is about to collapse..."

Teacher Xiaolin reminded Luo Chuan.

"Hang in there a little longer, Ms. Kobayashi, it'll be over soon."

Luo Chuan left Ye Ling behind, telling her to figure it out herself.

They then immediately charged towards Shadow Fiend.

"Go ahead and torment me..."

Teacher Xiaolin was on the verge of tears.

He could only bite his lower lip tightly, struggling to maintain the upgrade barrier.

"Heh... Can you survive in front of so many demons?"

The Shadow Fiend grinned maliciously.

Luo Chuan remained fearless.

"No matter how many there are, they're still just lambs."

He didn't waste words with Shadow Fiend.

First, continue to activate the Sea-Stabilizing Sword Formation to attack the Shadow Demon.

Then, looking at the swarming demons, he summoned twelve more ethereal swords.

"Heavenly Lock Sword Formation - Modified"

Luo Chuan slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.

This is the most ferocious and domineering sword formation among the twelve Yuan Chen.

"The Twelve Earthly Branches – Tiger (寅)!"

"roar!!!"

The sword is the master of slaughter, and the tiger roars across the heavens and earth.

A terrifying sword intent surged forth, transforming into a magnificent and ferocious tiger.

The tiger's eyes gleamed with ferocity, accompanied by a fierce and chilling wind.

In an instant, it bared its fangs and claws, and pounced down.

Fighting fiercely against demons.

It was like a tiger among sheep.

A fierce, blood-soaked storm of moonlight erupted.

Rumble...

Luo Chuan and Shadow Demon unleashed their full power, creating a deafening roar.

"Orb of Dark Devouring"

The Shadow Fiend transformed shadows into tiny black holes that devoured the sun and moon.

With terrifying gravity, it crashed down on Luo Chuan.

"Calming the sea and leveling the abyss—where all rivers converge!"

Luo Chuan's Dharma Seal underwent a transformation.

The twenty-four ether swords split into hundreds and thousands of streams.

The rivers flow ceaselessly, their vast expanse colliding with the black hole.

Luo Chuan raised his hand and clenched his fist towards the Shadow Demon.

"Torrent Burial!"

The situation changed again in an instant.

The raging torrents from all directions crashed down on Shadow Fiend with overwhelming force.

boom!!!

The waves surged skyward, and water splashed everywhere.

The Shadow Demon within the formation enveloped its body in shadow, transforming into a black hole to block the attack.

The intense back-and-forth between the two sides continues.

The aftershocks spread in all directions.

Ye Ling circled the perimeter, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

However, he discovered that he was completely unable to intervene in the battle between Luo Chuan and the Shadow Demon.

Instead, they helped deal with lone demons.

"Although I know Luo Chuan is strong, he's just too strong!"

Ms. Kobayashi felt the aftershocks of the battle.

I couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

She had never seen Luo Chuan use his full strength before; she had only heard about Luo Chuan's achievements from the Disaster Management Bureau and Xu Xiaojin.

Now I can finally see Luo Chuan fighting seriously with my own eyes.

Only then did I realize that I had been underestimating the other party.

Luo Chuan barely managed to reach the sixth rank by relying on the upgrade barrier.

However, his actual combat strength far exceeded the scope of the sixth rank.

Even capable of contending with a seventh-tier Martial Grandmaster.

To know.

After breaking through to the fifth rank.

The difference between each rank is like an insurmountable chasm.

"I've only ever heard of a sixth-tier unit fighting against a seventh-tier unit from Xueyi."

Teacher Xiaolin watched Luo Chuan's battle with a gleam in her eyes.

I felt a vague sense of unease.

Resistance is just resistance.

The upgrade barrier is about to expire.

On the battlefield.

Luo Chuan noticed that his spiritual energy was leaking away.

The spiritual energy amplification should be ending soon.

Now let's look at Shadow Fiend.

The guy seemed to notice something was wrong too, and grinned.

"It looks like the game is about to end."

"Yes, it's almost over."

Luo Chuan didn't take it to heart and formed a new hand seal.

What should I do if my cheat program is about to expire?

Very simple.

Why not just use a new cheat?

"The Twelve Divine Fiends—"

Luo Chuan spoke slowly, and a strange crimson-gold rune appeared between his brows.

The supernatural power has not yet been activated.

An ancient aura that transcends all heavens already filled the void.

The Shadow Fiend's smile froze.

He sensed it—an extremely strong threat to his life.

"wish……"

Luo Chuan hadn't finished speaking.

boom!

Ms. Kobayashi's barrier suddenly shattered.

Luo Chuan's spiritual power rapidly declined.

But before Shadow Fiend could even rejoice for a second...

wow——

Silver spears rained down from the sky.

Like a torrential downpour, it instantly riddled the Shadow Demon with bullets.

The Shadow Demon was terrified.

It immediately split into hundreds of bats that scattered and fled.

But in the next instant, the surrounding temperature plummeted, and all the bats, along with the air, froze into ice.

However, these were all Shadow Fiend's fake bodies.

Taking advantage of the situation, his true form was using Shadow Step to disappear in the opposite direction.

click!

A crisp sound came from the space.

Twelve divine chains emerged from the void.

Bind the Shadow Fiend's main body.

"Still trying to escape?"

Luo Chuan used his final move.

"Heavenly Lock Sword Formation - Modified - Heaven and Earth Prison"

It was in that brief pause.

A light and beautiful ice sword descended from the sky at just the right moment.

It precisely pierced the Shadow Demon's chest.

It was instantly frozen.

Until then.

Jiang Xueyi, clad in silver armor.

Only then did she resemble a majestic Valkyrie, spreading her steel wings.

It slowly fell from the night sky.

"..."

Luo Chuan stared at Jiang Xueyi speechlessly.

He never comes back early, and he never comes back late.

The kill-stealing game is here.
