40: Chapter 39: The Boy Who Walked Out of the Demon Pit 40: Chapter 39: The Boy Who Walked Out of the Demon Pit In the early morning, all around was quiet. A slender youth held a dark red greatsword, swinging it around in the Stele Forest. Upon closer inspection, one would realize that he wasn’t practicing any profound swordsmanship but rather the most basic sword technique common on the Spirit Martial Continent. Although it was a basic technique, the youth didn’t show any signs of perfunctory effort. He put his full strength into each strike, meticulously executing the moves. Chop, stab, sweep, slash… These fundamental moves repeated over and over in the youth’s hands. After hundreds of repetitions, the youth sheathed his sword, thrusting the dark red greatsword into the ground, then slowly exhaled. Shh! Like stabbing into tofu, the dark-red greatsword easily penetrated the earth. The youth flexed his arms and said in a low voice, “I’m basically accustomed to the weight of this Red Flame Greatsword by now, and my Spiritual Power has grown so tremendously. I’ll probably progress to the Sixth Rank very soon.” “It’s only natural. Your control of Spiritual Power is more than twice as fast as before, right?” Another voice sounded. “And haven’t you noticed that there’s something odd about this place?” The youth was Lin Xuan, and he replied with a laugh, “Of course, it’s strange. Aside from the stele, there are only those black plants. There’s nothing animate here!” “You’re still too young to feel the force of the rules. This place seems to be a world of its own, having different rules from the outside,” said Lord of Wine seriously. “At least in terms of time, this place and the outside are not the same.” Seeing Lin Xuan confused, Lord of Wine continued, “This Demon Pit is likely within an independent Small Xuan Realm. The place you are now is a buffer zone formed between the Small Xuan Realm and the great world. Going further inside leads to another world, which you can’t enter. Outside is the great world, with distorted space in between.” “And the main point is?” Lin Xuan asked with a wry smile. “The days you spend here are equivalent to a few hours in the outside world, and the closer you get to the Mystic Realm of the Demon Pit, the more pronounced this effect,” Lord of Wine concluded directly. “Little Xuanzi, this is a rare opportunity. Just use this chance to fully master this greatsword!” Lord of Wine said. “Really?” Lin Xuan, previously worried about the upcoming Inner Sect test, was now relieved to see his problems solved. “But, won’t I starve to death?” Lin Xuan expressed his concern. “I’m only a Little Spirit Warrior of the Mystical Realm, unable to absorb the Spiritual Power from the heavens and earth.” “I have a way to make sure you won’t starve,” Lord of Wine assured him. “But it might consume some of my strength. Young Xuan, you’ll need to continue collecting Spirit Grass to help concoct my fine wine!” “Don’t worry, Drunken Uncle. As long as I can enter the Inner Sect, I assure you I’ll find a pile of Spirit Grass,” Lin Xuan promised, patting his chest. Thus, Lin Xuan picked up the Red Flame Greatsword and moved closer to the Demon Pit, beginning his practice once more… In the outskirts of the Taihang Mountain Range. A group of people clad in silver light armor were desperately fleeing through the woods. “Damn it, the people from Xuantian Sect are ruthless, killing so many of our brothers!” a bald big man said. “Second Brother, let’s retreat! They are from the Divine Power Group, and even the Outer Four Masters are intervening. We can’t withstand that!” said the bearded middle-aged man bitterly. “Damn it, we didn’t even get the brown stones, yet they relentlessly pursue us. We can’t avenge Zhixing right now; let’s pull back!” the bald big man grit his teeth. Thus, the surviving members of the Poison Snake Mercenary Group quickly retreated… In another direction, at the exit point of the brown stones. Members from various factions were gathered there, including disciples of Xuantian Sect and Purple Mist Sect. “Brother Jiang, according to our calculations, a batch of brown stones should erupt in about half an hour.” seaʀᴄh thё Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Jiang Yulong nodded, he had to get his hands on this stone. He had been on the outskirts of the Demon Pit for five days and had only obtained a brown stone, which turned out to be empty, meaning these five days had been a waste. “Hmph! Duan Fei of the Battle Group got three, Shen Lan from the Qingyi Society got two, and I’m not sure about the Inner Sect Disciples…” Jiang Yulong figured out that he had received the least. “Yu’er, don’t worry, I will definitely grab a brown Divine Stone for you,” a pleasing voice reached Jiang Yulong’s ears. He frowned and glanced over, then snorted coldly. Not far behind, a Purple Clothes youth was pestering Tang Yu with a shameless face; it was none other than Second Young Master Ding from the Purple Mist Sect. “Ding Xiang, keep away from me, or my brother will come back and beat you up!” Tang Yu said, visibly annoyed. “Hehe, your brother has already been invited by Brother Liu Qing for a sparring session, but don’t worry, I’ll protect you!” the Purple Clothes youth, Ding Xiang, flicked his hair. Beside them, Duan Fei’s face darkened. Handsome and one of the Outer Four Masters, he considered Tang Yu to be his woman. Yet, this brazen Purple Clothes youth had been pestering her all morning, and he had wanted to slap him to death long ago. But this youth’s brother, Ding Hao, was among the top young experts, known as the Speedy Blade of Yunzhou. With such a formidable brother, Duan Fei naturally did not dare to act. Just as he was grinding his teeth in frustration, someone suddenly shouted, “The Divine Stone is coming out!” Duan Fei quickly turned his head, his eyes fixed on the front, ready to make his move at any moment. The others also seemed eager to pounce, and Jiang Yulong clenched his longsword even tighter. Shisshi! Suddenly, a whooshing sound came from up front, making everyone tense. A fist-sized brown stone flew towards them, and nobody moved because a massive shadow loomed behind it—it was a tremendously huge stone appearing for the first time! Jiang Yulong licked his lips, determined to claim this stone. However, soon he realized something was off. Not just him, everyone noticed something unusual. There was a person standing on this stone! “How could there be a living person in the Demon Pit? Could it be a demon?” Many were alarmed, fearing the appearance of a supreme Demon King which could spell their doom. “No, it’s a youth!” someone noticed the new development. “That outfit, it’s a Xuantian Sect disciple!” Everyone’s eyes widened, unable to fathom why a Xuantian Sect disciple would emerge from the Demon Pit. A graceful youth stood on the brown stone, carrying a dark red greatsword, sporting a confident smirk. Whoosh! The youth jumped off the stone, whistling cheerfully, “Thanks for coming to pick me up, everyone. The stone flew off, you guys better chase after it.” “Thanks, my ass!” everyone cursed internally, we’re here for the brown Divine Stone, not you! But prompted by the youth’s reminder, many quickly pursued the stones. “Lin Xuan, it’s Lin Xuan!” Finally, someone recognized the youth, and the members of the Divine Power Group darkened their faces and surrounded him, knowing that Lin Xuan’s presence meant trouble. Jiang Yulong’s eyebrows knotted, his face stern as he stepped forward, his icy gaze fixed on Lin Xuan. “I believe I once said, when I see you again, I’ll twist your head off!” Jiang Yulong said coldly. “Really?” Lin Xuan’s face bore a lazy smile, but his tone was as sharp as a blade’s edge, “I seem to recall saying that when we meet again, I’ll defeat you with the sword in my hand!”
