Supreme Sword God

Chapter 217: Chapter 216: Eye Mutation

Ye Chen blew up the Demonic Pit’s Demonic Source, thereby slaying countless elite warriors of the Demon Race!

Yang Tianji and Ouyang Shang beheaded two generations of Demon Emperors of the Demon Race!

These two pieces of news are truly shocking!

If this is true, this Demonic Pit will no longer pose any threat to the Human Race... No, this Demonic Pit is completely gone!

This Demonic Pit has existed for hundreds of years.

To seal off these Demons, over several hundred years, wave after wave of Human warriors came and fought to their deaths.

Exactly how many people have died on this battlefield is impossible to tally; it’s an astonishing number.

Completely annihilating a Demonic Pit will be an immensely great event that will shake the entire Great Zhou Dynasty!

It is the fortune of the people of Unparalleled County, the fortune of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the fortune of the Human Race!

Qin Hao, known as the Blood Slaughter Divine Spear, was the first to come back to his senses, his eyes red with emotion.

His father, his brothers, countless warriors under his command all perished to suppress the scourge of this Demonic Pit; now, this Demonic Pit is finally about to be eradicated!

”The Demonic Source is destroyed, the Demon Emperor is dead, the elite of the Demon Race are all extinct; everyone, follow me to kill!”

Qin Hao shouted loudly, his voice thundering like a clap, his heart surging with emotion, hot tears slid down the corners of his eyes.

”I never expected that in my lifetime, I’d be able to participate in the battle to annihilate this Demonic Pit, hahaha, it’s worth it, all of it is worth it!”

”Kill, enjoy the killing spree, slaughter every single one of these Demons!”

”Today, let the Demon blood form rivers, as a tribute to our Human Race’s heroes, kill!”

One loud shout after another rang out.

Everyone unleashed the anger and murderous intent suppressed in their hearts completely; in just a moment, the Demons trying to escape through the Demonic Pit’s passage were wiped out cleanly.

Qin Hao took the lead, charging from the Demonic Pit passage into the pit itself.

Looking around, within the Demonic Pit, the sky collapsed, the ground trembled, the Demonic Source had vanished, and the environment within the pit no longer suppressed his power!

Qin Hao was thus assured that what he heard earlier was indeed true!

Ye Chen, Yang Tianji, and Ouyang Shang joined forces to accomplish a feat that would certainly ignite the entire Great Zhou Dynasty!

Behind Qin Hao, Human elites, warriors, and regular soldiers rushed through the passage.

Qin Hao gripped his spear with one hand, its tip pointing toward the sky, shouting: ”A group of people will blockade the passage exit; if any Demon escapes, they will be severely punished by military regulations! The rest of you, follow me, sweep through the Demonic Pit, and eliminate on sight!”

...

Where the original Demon City once stood.

Only an enormous pit remains.

Ye Chen sat at the bottom of the pit, still dealing with the trouble in his eyes.

Yang Tianji and Ouyang Shang had finished their battles.

By rights, having each slain a Heaven-Reaching Realm Demon Legend and with this Demonic Pit on the verge of destruction, it should be a celebratory event, but Yang Tianji and Ouyang Shang wore heavy expressions, unable to feel joyful, both maintaining silence, their eyes fixed on Ye Chen.

Moments later.

Ye Chen stopped performing the Original True Understanding Technique.

Yang Tianji immediately asked, ”How is it? Is there an issue with the Nine Nether Eye Race’s origin that has entered your eyes?”

Ye Chen still kept his eyes shut, stood up, and said, ”Teacher, Dean Ouyang, it seems like I can’t see with my eyes...”

The Nine Nether Eye Race’s origin entered his eyes, and the Celestial Demonic Qi also uncontrollably joined in, forcing Ye Chen to use the Original True Understanding Technique to suppress it. However, under the power of the Original True Understanding, the origin from the Nine Nether Eye Race and the Celestial Demonic Qi fused more rapidly into every part of his eyes.

Moreover, Ye Chen’s Spiritual Power, Sword Essence, and Qi Blood also fused into his eyes.

This type of fusion differed entirely from the fusion of Spirit and Martial Arts Unification, leading to numerous unforeseen changes in Ye Chen’s eyes, which now... are temporarily blind!

Temporarily, because Ye Chen felt his eyes seemed to be undergoing some kind of transformation; he had a strong intuition that something indescribable was about to emerge from within his eyes!

”I was too careless!” Yang Tianji’s tone was filled with self-blame.

He had noticed the Nine Nether Eye Race’s origin invade Ye Chen’s eyes right away, but since Ye Chen showed perfect control over the Demon powers, Yang Tianji didn’t deal with it immediately, instead rushing to kill the Demon Emperor...

”Teacher, it’s nothing serious; in the Mortal Transformation Realm, limbs can regenerate, blood can revive flesh, even a wisp of soul can reconstruct a body; I’m already in the Elemental Wheel Realm, and it won’t be long before I undergo Mortal Transformation,” said Ye Chen.

He did not reveal the mutation in his eyes, as it was just his intuition; he couldn’t fully ascertain what was happening.

Ouyang Shang nodded in agreement and said, ”There shouldn’t be much of a problem. At worst, we can dig them out and help you grow a new pair of eyes.”

For strong Mortal Transformation Realm practitioners, regrowing severed limbs for others isn’t a problem, let alone for Legendary Realm powerhouses; such a feat is easily done.

”...” Ye Chen: ”Dean Ouyang, there’s no rush; let’s wait and see; perhaps a few days of rest will restore them... I still prefer the original, complete set.”

Though Ye Chen wasn’t afraid of pain.

Imagining his eyes being dug out made him shiver.

Too brutal!

Seeing Ye Chen’s reaction, Yang Tianji’s mood lightened, a knowing smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

This kid.

His temperament is truly excellent!

As for his talent, it’s incomparable; he was given only a Thousand Spirits Technique, yet Ye Chen silently became a Tier Three Ultimate Celestial Seal Spirit Master, then achieved perfect Spirit and Martial Arts Unification; moreover, his degree of Spirit and Martial Arts Unification has surpassed thirty percent!

”Regarding your eyes, we’ll handle it once we’re back at Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, but there’s another important matter you must remember!” Yang Tianji’s tone turned stern once more: ”We don’t wish to pry into how you control the Demon Race’s powers, but you must be cautious and not turn yourself into a Human Demon.

Moreover, you mustn’t speak to anyone besides me and Dean Ouyang about how you interfere with the Demonic Source’s operation.

The credit for blowing up the Demonic Source and destroying the Demonic Pit will be attributed to you, but these tactics are part of the plan executed by me and Dean Ouyang; you merely carried out the plan, understood?!”

Ye Chen understood that Yang Tianji intended to protect him; he nodded and said, ”Disciple understands.”

Ouyang Shang stroked the long tuft on his chin, saying nothing further.

This way of protecting Ye Chen was something he and Yang Tianji had agreed upon beforehand.

Yet, precisely how Ye Chen controlled the Demon powers, and how he interfered with the Demonic Source’s operation, Ouyang Shang was deeply curious about.

But since Yang Tianji expressed that intention, Ouyang Shang refrained from probing.

He worried that if he crossed Yang Tianji’s line, he might get killed... The Spirit and Martial Arts folks are all freaks, each incredibly formidable at their level.

Of course, Ouyang Shang’s concession had another reason.

He had observed that Ye Chen’s body showed no signs of corruption by Demon powers; the likelihood of Ye Chen becoming a Human Demon was virtually nonexistent. Had he not confirmed this first, Ouyang Shang would have insisted on clarifying everything despite the risk of getting beaten by Yang Tianji!
