Chapter 22: The Sword Drawing Technique That Sliced Through the Sky

At this moment, Wang Yang came out supporting Wei Wenjie. Seeing Su Yu still at the entrance, he shouted, "Brother Su, run quickly! There is a Demon Clan member inside. We don't know if it's dead yet. Hurry and notify the others to leave the Secret Realm."

Looking at the situation before him and combining it with the loud noise from earlier, Su Yu knew exactly what had happened.

"I will go notify the others first, you all go ahead." Afterward, Wang Yang and the others supported Wei Wenjie and flew rapidly toward the exit.

The reason he said this was because Su Yu sensed an ominous Aura within the exit, and this Aura had not disappeared.

It seemed that this Demon Race member was not dead. Su Yu thought for a moment; it seemed he could not let this Demon Clan member escape.

Jiang Cheng crawled out of the ruins, spitting blood. His cultivation had returned to the Foundation Establishment Stage Level 9. Fortunately, he had the Yin Yang Demon Pearl in his hand.

Just when Wei Liang self-destructed, Jiang Cheng activated the Yin Yang Demon Pearl to absorb a large amount of the damage.

At this moment, a voice echoed in Jiang Cheng's mind: "Kid, the Yin Yang Art is in hand. Hurry and eliminate those who have seen you, otherwise, there will be big trouble. You cannot reveal that you are a Demon Clan member too early."

The reason Jiang Cheng knew the Demon Race Cultivation Technique was that the person in his mind had taught it to him. That person would guide Jiang Cheng to Cultivate, and combined with the effects of the Yin Yang Demon Pearl, his cultivation was able to advance by leaps and bounds.

Recently, many Disciples of Tiannv had gone missing, and it was basically all his doing. Moreover, the method to activate this Yin Yang Art was also taught by him, solely to obtain this Yin Yang Art.

Afterward, Jiang Cheng prepared to quickly eliminate the people outside the Secret Realm.

Just as Jiang Cheng stepped out of the exit, he saw a person at the Foundation Establishment Stage Level 2 still at the exit.

"I didn't expect one to have not run away." Su Yu's appearance had been disguised at this moment.

Jiang Cheng looked at Su Yu. "Kid, there is a path to Heaven that you do not take, and you barge into Hell where there is no gate. Just a small Foundation Establishment Stage Level 2, I'm afraid your legs are shaking from fear, right?"

"Just happen to become my nourishment." Afterward, a black shadow stabbed toward Su Yu.

But Su Yu dispersed the black shadow with a single palm strike. Jiang Cheng was shocked upon seeing this. "You are not at the Foundation Establishment Stage Level 2. Who exactly are you?"

"When did I ever say I was at the Foundation Establishment Stage Level 2, right?"

Suddenly, Su Yu released his Foundation Establishment Stage Level 9 cultivation.

Jiang Cheng saw this and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was also Foundation Establishment Stage Level 9; he still had a backup plan.

Jiang Cheng laughed, "So it's Foundation Establishment Stage Level 9, disguised as Foundation Establishment Stage Level 2. I thought you were how powerful? Nothing special."

Immediately, he circulated his Demonic Technique and attacked Su Yu, but soon, as they fought, things didn't feel right.

Jiang Cheng could not gain any advantage at all, as if this person was just playing with him.

Looking at Su Yu, he seemed to have plenty of room to spare. At this moment, a voice came from Jiang Cheng's mind: "Do not waste time here, hurry and eliminate him to avoid complications."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng no longer hid his strength. Although raising himself to the Golden Core Stage had significant side effects,

but the person in his mind had said that as long as he had this Yin Yang Art, everything would be fine, and Jiang Cheng believed it.

Afterward, Jiang Cheng circulated his Cultivation Technique, raising his cultivation to the Golden Core Stage. Immediately, Jiang Cheng became arrogant.

"You were just playing with me earlier; this time, go to your death!"

Su Yu just quietly watched Jiang Cheng's arrogant behavior and did not speak. Jiang Cheng looked at Su Yu's calm appearance and became somewhat enraged.

"You must be scared silly, still so calm. Just become my nourishment!"

Jiang Cheng, carrying a black phantom, rushed toward Su Yu. Just as he was about to attack Su Yu, he was blocked by his bare hand, and for a moment, he couldn't break free.

What was going on? For a moment, Jiang Cheng panicked and shouted, "What exactly is your cultivation? It is absolutely impossible for you to only be at the Foundation Establishment Stage!"

Su Yu scratched his head. "Actually, I can also raise my cultivation."

Immediately, an overwhelming Aura surged toward Jiang Cheng, and Jiang Cheng was stunned for a moment.

At this moment, the person in Jiang Cheng's mind shouted, "Not good, it's a Golden Core Middle Stage! I don't know if you noticed during the fight, but he still has a long sword behind his back that he hasn't used yet. This time, we are in trouble."

"Is my raised cultivation enough to look at?"

Jiang Cheng felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten excrement. He knew he could not be an opponent for a Golden Core Middle Stage.

Moreover, it looked like the person before him was also a Sword Cultivator, but he hadn't used his sword technique yet.

For a moment, Jiang Cheng had the thought of running away. At this time, the person in Jiang Cheng's mind also suggested retreating first; in any case, the Yin Yang Art was already in hand.

Jiang Cheng hurriedly circulated his Cultivation Technique to prepare for retreat. Just as Jiang Cheng was about to fly away, a large hand instantly pressed down on his shoulder.

"Why, do you still want to run?"

Seeing that he couldn't run away, Jiang Cheng thought in his mind, "Old thing, hurry and think of a way! I can't beat him, and I can't run. Didn't you say it was foolproof when we came in?"

At this moment, the black shadow in Jiang Cheng's mind replied, "Don't be anxious yet. I still have one move that can raise your cultivation again. As long as you hand your body over to me first, I will help you deal with him."

"Possessing your body can briefly raise your cultivation to the Golden Core Middle Stage. Plus, with my combat experience, dealing with him will be easy."

"Really?"

For a moment, Jiang Cheng was somewhat excited. "Okay, you take control first. Do not let him go; he dared to play with me. I want him to pay the price!"

"No problem, leave it to me. You relax your body first and open your Sea of Consciousness."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng opened his Sea of Consciousness.

The black shadow immediately rushed into Jiang Cheng's Sea of Consciousness. At this moment, Jiang Cheng's Aura rose rapidly, reaching the Golden Core Middle Stage.

At this moment, Jiang Cheng seemed to have changed into a different person. "Finally, I, the Wind Spirit Demon Venerable, have finally been resurrected!"

That's right, at this moment, the real Jiang Cheng had already disappeared; he had been replaced.

Now that I have the Yin Yang Art and the Yin Yang Demon Pearl, especially a legendary treasure like the Yin Yang Demon Pearl in hand, you old geezers just wait. I will kill my way back very soon, but I still have to deal with one person right now.

Su Yu looked at Jiang Cheng, who had raised his cultivation again. It seemed that according to what he said, the original Jiang Cheng had been subjected to Possession and had completely become a Demon Clan member.

Better to quickly end the battle and return to the Sect; people will be coming soon.

Jiang Cheng looked at Su Yu. "Kid, I see you have some strength. Do you want to work under me? When the Demon Race attacks, you can have whatever you want."

"You had better worry about whether you can survive yourself." After saying that, Su Yu brought Sword Nine in front of him and performed the action of drawing his sword.

Jiang Cheng saw this. "Do not be ungrateful!"

But just as Jiang Cheng prepared to attack, an invisible pressure pressed down, rendering Jiang Cheng unable to move. At this moment, he felt a Sword Intent shooting straight into the clouds locking onto him.

Every cell in his body was warning him to run, he would die, but no matter how he struggled, he couldn't move.

At this moment, Jiang Cheng shouted, "No! You are not at the Golden Core Stage! How could the Golden Core Stage possibly have such strength!"

"How could I, the Wind Spirit Demon Venerable, die here? No, it cannot be! I still have Essence Blood!"

"Even if I use up all my Essence Blood, I must escape! I will not fall here!"

Suddenly, Jiang Cheng's cultivation soared to the Late Stage Golden Core, infinitely close to Nascent Soul, but even so, he could only barely move.

At this moment, with Su Yu as the center, the sky of the entire Secret Realm changed; dark clouds gathered, and lightning flashed and thunder rolled.

The people still in the Secret Realm were already so shocked by the scene before them that they couldn't speak. It wasn't that they didn't want to run, but they couldn't.

They were also affected by this Sword Intent and couldn't move at all.

While lightning constantly flashed around Su Yu, Su Yu slowly spat out three words: "Sword Drawing Technique!"

Jiang Cheng saw this. "No, don't!"

Suddenly, a beam of light shooting straight into the sky enveloped the entire Secret Realm.

After the light faded, a crack appeared in the sky, and looking toward the ground, one could see a ravine several thousand meters long appearing before their eyes.

PS: (Perhaps everyone sees this and doesn't quite understand, but this is a major character who drives the later plot and will not die easily. Please rest assured that the protagonist will not have much interaction with this person later, and there is no issue of exposure. Some readers are quite averse to seeing this; please forgive me.)
