Rise Of The Demon God

Chapter 1376 - 1376: Dangerous Trial

Chapter 1376 - 1376: Dangerous Trial

Long Chen stepped on the main street, observing his surroundings.

Everywhere he looked, there were people going around.

He took a deep breath and waved his hand, bringing out his Spirit Sword.

Closest to him, there was a bulky man who had just finished robbing a shop.

He came out of the shop with the treasures.

Long Chen snapped his fingers, making his Spirit Sword chase after the man. Within seconds, the Spirit Sword sliced the head of the robber.

The man inside the shop came out, seeing the robber dead.

He looked at Long Chen.

"T-thank you, young man! You saved my shop!" He gratefully held the hands of Long Chen.

Soon, the man looked weirdly at Long Chen.

"What happened? Ring not coming off my finger?" Long Chen asked, smiling.

He couldn't help but smile at the efforts of the old man to steal his storage ring. Albeit, the man failed.

Swiss~

The sword came flying back, slicing the head of the old man as well.

Long Chen looked at the body of the old man. "This world... I have a grasp of it already. Everyone is the same. The concept of gratefulness and righteousness doesn't exist here. It doesn't matter; even if I help someone, I'll only suffer. So might as well go free."

He stretched his arms lazily.

He kicked the body of the man aside before walking calmly.

He didn't even need to move a hand himself as the Spirit Sword did all the work. No matter who got closer to him, they ended up dead. The ground was littered with bodies behind Long Chen.

"They're still at it?" he smiled, seeing the gang of women that had beaten the man before. Now they were beating another man after taking his money.

"Do your magic," Long Chen lazily said.

The spirit sword flew straight to the women, leaving a bright trail of energy in its wake. A woman raised her head, noticing the sword, but before she could do anything, the Spirit Sword passed through his body.

"Argh!" A painful groan left the lady's lips, but it soon drowned in the screams of the other women.

The man who was lying on the ground looked shocked. He wondered if someone had come to save him. He tried standing up, but the sword didn't stop. It impaled the body of the man as well.

....

Inside the real Bloodline Temple, Long Tian was watching everything that Long Chen was going through.

"This trial... It would certainly boost his bloodline if he succeeds, but it won't be good. I can see the aim of this trial. I wish I could talk to him and warn him!"

"The Trial of a Demon... He will be forced to kill so many people that it'll change his heart, and he won't even realize it. The life of other people would lose all meaning for him."

"He would certainly become stronger, but he'll lose whatever humanity he managed to save so far. I hope he can protect himself from this. If not... The world would see a different Long Chen..."

Long Tian turned around, looking at the bright light flashing behind him.

...

Unaware of everything that was happening, Long Chen walked through the city, massacring everyone that lived in the city.

After his initial experience, he had already stopped considering these people as humans that needed any consideration.

And even if they were humans, they weren't more important than his return.

He didn't know if there was any time limit on how fast he needed to fill the bottle, so he was trying to finish the trial fast.

As the information about a monster running around the city and killing people spread, two groups of people appeared.

One group joined together to kill Long Chen and save the town. On the other hand, another group decided that it was better to stay hidden and wait for Long Chen's departure.

The group which tried to attack Long Chen failed miserably. They couldn't even get past the Spirit Sword, let alone getting close to Long Chen.

The attackers kept dropping like flies.

On the other hand, the people that chose to hide didn't have a good time either. Before the Spirit Sense of Long Chen that covered most of the town, their stealth was nothing.

He could easily find them and kill them whenever he wanted.

It took just ten minutes....ten minutes for Long Chen to turn a lawless yet lively town into a Ghost Town.

"Finished already?" Long Chen said, frowning. He looked at the bottle in his hand, which was still mostly empty.

All the red specks that he had collected after killing the people in the town had merged to make two droplets of blood that were lying at the bottom of the bottle.

"So many lives for two droplets... It must be a test of patience. It'll take such a long time to fill this bottle completely. Still, at least it's good that I'm in a world where these kinds of people exist. I don't need to be careful."

He kept the bottle back in his pocket before checking the scroll.

" One more town towards the south before I reach the city." He folded the map again before he started flying south in search of more fodder for his quest to get back.

His strength was much higher than before, and so was his cultivation and speed.

It didn't even take him twenty minutes before he reached the next town.

In the next town, he was greeted with an even more bizarre scene.

Not a single person was wearing any clothes in the town, whether it be a woman or a man.

They were all running around naked. It was a weird scene, but he didn't care about the reasoning. Other than the nude city, everything else was the same as the last town. There were crimes left and right, everywhere.

His Spirit Sword entered the town. This time Long Chen stayed behind though. He didn't step inside the town and simply watched the massacre from above the city as if the ones who were being killed were nothing but ants for him.

He was more focused on the bottle and seeing it filled.

This time, he was even faster and didn't even take ten minutes to finish the time. Just to be sure that no one was left alive, he even brought forth a storm in the town which destroyed all the houses.

The spirit sword came back. Long Chen stood in his sword, keeping his hand behind his back.. The sword started flying ahead towards the next city.
