Eternal life begins with saving my clan

Chapter 72 : Su Yen show his full strength and the ancient seal demon on the brink of despair

Walking at the center of the street in the mysterious ancient city, Su Yen moved with a deliberate pace, his eyes taking in the enigmatic architecture that surrounded him.

The cobblestone streets beneath his feet were worn by centuries of existence, and the towering structures on either side whispered secrets of a bygone era.

The city was as quiet as a graveyard.

The air was thick with a sense of history and mystique as he continued his journey, each step echoing with the weight of his purpose.

Web-like cracks appeared on the once-glorious buildings, telling the age of time.

With each step, he could sense the magnificence of this city in its golden age.

Unbeknownst to him, a deep sigh escaped his lips. Just as he took the right turn and entered the heart of the city.

The air changed, and he felt another presence on the street.

He released his spirit sense, scanning everything in a hundred-meter radius.

As he scanned the empty street, the ground under his foot trembled.

At first, it was minute, but gradually increased. The ground began to tremble vehemently.

From the distance, hundreds of giant Desert Sand Men approached with an intimidating presence.

Su Yen furrowed his brow for a moment before relaxing. 'So the boss must be in that direction... This saves me the trouble of finding him myself.'

Even though the approaching giant sand men had the aura of the peak of the Qi Refinement realm, he wasn't moved in the least.

He turned his head and looked back; there he saw Su Ming and the elite soldiers rushing toward him.

Upon reaching him, he pointed at the incoming giant sand men and said to Su Ming, "Deal with them; I need to handle the real enemy."

Su Ming opened his mouth, only to see Su Yen had long gone. His speed was so fast that he didn't even detect when he left.

However, while he wondered how Su Yen left, a deadly sharpness cut through the incoming hordes of giant sand men.

The cut was so neat and clean as if it had been measured before cutting. Under Su Yen's sword attack, the recovery power of the giant sand men failed to work for a couple of moments.

"Little brother..."

Su Ming called in a daze, watching the dumbfounding scene in front of him.

On the other side, Su Yen appeared in front of an ancient temple.

The temple's ancient aura was vastly different from the city. On the temple wall, there were many ancient markings that Su Yen recognized immediately.

He had once seen these ancient writings in the underground water world. Therefore, he knew the person sealed inside the temple came from the same source as the one in the underground water world.

Without further thought, he entered the temple casually.

Inside the temple, everything was spotless, and the air was clean and fresh, unlike the ancientness of the mysterious city.

Even though everything was clean on the surface, he didn't let down his guard.

He walked in a slow, calculated pace. Reaching deeper into the temple, he saw an astounding scene.

The previous clean and fresh atmosphere was gone and was replaced by scars of battle.

In some corners, he saw many shattered skeletons. Some were still intact with cracks appearing on their chests or heads.

The walls had various ghastly deep cuts; some were punctures, while some looked like claw attacks.

Watching everything, Su Yen shook his head and proceeded with a thought in his mind.

"How strong is the seal demon for so many people to have died before managing to seal it?"

He walked through and saw various battles and many skeletons but didn't stop.

Just as he was about to reach the other end of the temple, his instinct kicked in, screaming of danger.

He was no longer the previous weak and ignorant kid.

Instead of trying to dodge the attack, he retaliated with a powerful punch.

Bang!

Ah!

A silhouette was sent flying by Su Yen's sudden attack with a deep cut on his left side chest.

Blood gushed out of his injury, dyeing his pristine white robe red.

However, he didn't even bat an eye at the injury as his gaze was fixed on the sudden attacker.

"Human, you're too ruthless." A young man clad in brownish-yellow armor got up from the ground, dusting off the dirt from his body.

On his hand was a long sharp spear that resembled those of the giant sand men.

"You must be the seal demon," Su Yen said matter-of-factly.

"So you recognize this lord?" The ancient demon responded with a devilish grin.

"How do you want to die? Easy and painful or fast and brutal. Choose," he commanded.

Su Yen looked at the ancient demon and chuckled.

"Kill me? You can try. But I've never met anyone who can kill me yet. And you're not that person."

The courage and calmness in Su Yen's voice irritated the seal demon to no end.

'How dare a puny human have such courage in his presence.'

"I will trample on your courage and give you a brutal death that will make it impossible for you to reincarnate."

He shouted and jumped toward Su Yen, swinging his spear in an arc.

The air trembled, and all the sand in the vicinity gathered. They flew toward him like sharp deadly daggers.

"Useless trick."

Su Yen snorted and released his sword soul.

The aura around him changed drastically. The atmosphere was filled with pricking deadly sharpness.

The incoming sand attack disintegrated into nothingness when they approached Su Yen's 50-meter radius.

As for the ancient demon, he was speechless. Though he had the power of the peak of the Foundation Building realm.

He was scared silly under Su Yen's sword soul.

Besides, it was not only him that was stunned. In an obscure corner of the temple was an illusory soul of an old woman.

The old woman's jaw was dropped open with wide eyes.

Since ancient times, how many people had awoken their sword soul? Most they could do was comprehend sword aura and a little comprehend sword intent.

But now, when the world had regressed to borderline extinction, a sword soul appeared.

How could this be possible?

Unbeknownst to what was going on in the mind of the seal demon and the illusory woman.

Su Yen released his sword aura. The deadly sharp atmosphere turned into a sea of invisible sword.

With just a thought, Su Yen could kill anyone inside the sword soul field.

"Finally, I can fight with my full strength," he said, not noticing the stupefied expression on the seal demon's face.
