Everyone stared at the massive, black veil hanging high above them. It felt as if they were imrsed in an eternal night. No word could describe the shock in their hearts.
“What is this?”
“Why can’t I see what’s in front of anymore?”
“This is not good! The circulation of my cultivation seems to have stopped!”
“And my divine sense, I can only extend it less than a zhang!”
Panicked voices kept ringing out one after another. Everyone felt like small insects that had mistakenly fallen into a pit, sinking deeper and deeper. Aside from their cultivation and divine senses, their movents seed sealed by the shadows, turning sluggish. How were they supposed to escape when they could barely lift a finger?
Di Kan’s huge follower couldn’t help but ask, “Young Valley Master, can you tell what this is?”
Di Kan shook his head with effort. “How would I know? Even if the old ancestor ca, he might not recognize it!”
The earliest sword light, Ah Sha’s ability, and now this expanse of black veil. These weren’t thods that a Saint realm cultivator could use.
Di Kan felt incredibly fortunate. “Good thing we didn’t offend him!”
He strongly suspected that this black veil was only one of Gu Han’s tricks.

“A bunch of cannon fodder! I’ll make sure you co but never return!” The shadow’s voice was extrely weak, yet his excitent was impossible to conceal. “What a sha... The Eclipse of Heaven isn’t my strongest divine power, but it can be considered a signature secret technique from my pri. If my cultivation were at its peak, this boundless gloom would engulf ten thousand li! Beneath this black veil, I am the heavenly will! Those I permit to live shall live. Those I decree to die shall die!”
Though he sounded sowhat regretful, his words were anything but humble. At the sa ti, the more he spoke, the weaker his voice beca. It seed maintaining the Eclipse of Heaven really took a toll on him.
Gu Han didn’t speak. For the first ti, he didn’t mock the shadow. A burning, agonizing pain spread through him.
Under the erosion of demonic qi, his body was once again being destroyed beyond recognition. However, compared to the burning killing intent and rage in his heart, this pain ant nothing at all. He wouldn’t let a single one of these people off!
Within the gloom, he advanced, moving extrely fast. Since the secret technique was cast through him, he was effectively half the master here. Not only were his movents much more agile, his perception had also sharpened drastically. One by one, their expressions ca into sharp, vivid focus. There were eight guardians left.
Gu Han instantly arrived before the first person. Even though the man had long sensed Gu Han’s aura, he was too powerless to do anything.
The dignified Transcendent realm expert trembled, unable to say a complete sentence. “Y-you... cannot kill .”
Gu Han raised his sword, its demonic qi making him appear even more like a Sword Demon. “So, you’re afraid of death too.”
He swung the sword down. The man desperately tried to resist, but to no avail. He could only despairingly accept his fate. A soft sound echoed, and he was no more.
Gu Han imdiately turned around. He didn’t know how long the shadow’s soul power could sustain the black veil. Fight and decide quickly!
The second person seed to foresee his fate. His face twisted ferociously as he roared like a madman, “You dare kill ? I am from the Wu family in Central Continent—”
Before he finished speaking, his head hit the floor.
Next!
“My Holy Master—”
Next again!
Under normal circumstances, each of these Transcendent realm experts could easily take Gu Han’s life. How the tables had turned.
Swing the sword, sheathe the sword. Next!
The process was strikingly consistent. The laws within the black veil seed to replace those of the Great Dao. Beneath the shroud of gloom, the guardians were nothing more than lambs awaiting slaughter.
Finally, the seventh head hit the floor.
Just then, threads of light pierced through the black veil.
The shadow’s voice was almost inaudible. “Hurry! Kill him!”
He couldn’t hold on much longer. Gu Han’s demonic qi rapidly receded, revealing his white hair and bloodthirsty gaze. Without hesitation, he approached the last and strongest Transcendent realm expert present.
Gu Han raised his sword. “I told you I would kill you myself.”
The sword descended rapidly.
In the dim light, Luan Ping’s face could be faintly seen, twisted with resistance and unwillingness. “No! I cannot die! You can’t kill !”
What had he made the Dao Bell ring seven tis for? What had he led Chu Kuang to his death for? What was the point of it all?!
He used to be the most promising Holy Son in the history of Myriad Transformations Holy Land. His future was bright, his prospects limitless, even having a chance to contend for the position of Holy Master. How could he die here just like that?!
The ray of light didn’t only seem to weaken the black veil slightly, but also brought Luan Ping a sliver of hope. He recovered a trace of his cultivation at the last mont. Driven by a powerful will to survive, he emanated an aura comparable to an Acupoint Unsealing realm cultivator. Of course, it was all useless.
As if his protective spirit light was never there, the sword gently grazed his neck, and a spurt of blood shot out. The black veil vanished at the sa ti.
Heaven and earth seed to spin. Luan Ping caught sight of light once more, only for it to swiftly dissolve into endless gloom, never returning. Eternal darkness engulfed him, burying all his ambition and defiance.
After the black veil disappeared, Di Kan and the others could move again. Even though they couldn’t see while inside the veil, the screams and roars told them everything. Yet, faced with eight headless corpses, their hearts still churned with overwhelming shock.
Three families and twelve guardians, all Transcendent-realm experts, had been slain by Gu Han alone. If one added Chu Kuang, Wu Han, and those from before, he truly deserved the title Sword Demon!
