Wang Yan turned his head and saw several secret manuals on a bookshelf beside him. Behind one of the secret manuals was a transparent rhombus-shaped crystal that was slightly larger than a grain of rice. This item looked exceptionally familiar. Wang Yan instantly remembered that he had obtained a similar item from the strange stone room on Mount Tailan. It was one of the two items left behind by Ren Tianxing.
What was this item? Why did the Pure Moon Sect have it as well? More importantly, Wang Yan's gaze swept across the Vast Heaven Cave. There were other places that emitted a faint fluorescent light. Clearly, there was more than one such item.
"Kid, you are not a member of the Pure Moon Sect. Why are you in the Vast Heaven Cave?"
Just as Wang Yan was lost in thought, an old voice traveled into Wang Yan's ears. He immediately came back to his senses and looked in the direction of the voice. He saw an old nun with a head full of silver hair and a skinny body wearing a monk's robe appear soundlessly behind him. Before Wang Yan could reply, Bai Daoxin walked over and said, "Bai Daoxin greets the Elder."
Elder? Could this old nun be the martial arts legend that had been hidden in the Pure Moon Sect for decades — the Extinct Demonic Hand, Nan Tuoni? Wang Yan was slightly shocked. This senior's name could be said to be extremely famous. His name had shaken the five states over a hundred years ago and he had also been powerful on the Hidden Dragon Roll for a time. Now, he was even ranked as one of the "Two Demons." Even among the martial arts legends, he was publicly acknowledged to be a level higher than the Three Freaks, Four Oddities, and Five Emperors in terms of seniority and strength.
Such a person could be said to be the true pinnacle of the martial world. Wang Yan had never thought that he would meet such a person in the Vast Sky Cave. He immediately bowed and said, "Proud Sword Villa disciple Wang Yan greets Senior. The reason I am in the Vast Sky Cave is because my sect's' Enlightened Sword 'Peak Master Liu bestowed a Vast Sky Cave jade token. This matter has obtained Senior's approval, so I came with Junior Sister Bai to the Vast Sky Cave."
Bai Daoxin nodded, and then he wanted to speak up for Wang Yan. However, the old nun waved her hand and said, "There's no need to say anything further. Since it was that kid from my Sect who failed to live up to expectations and lost to Liu Zhaoxian, my Pure Moon Sect won't go back on our word for a mere Vast Heaven Cave jade token.
However … "
At this point, the old nun pointed a finger at Wang Yan and said, "I don't like the aura on your body. If I met someone like you a few decades ago, forget about you being a disciple of the Aojian Villa, even if you were from the Tianyuan Holy Island, this old nun would still kill you with one palm!"
The old nun's words were filled with murderous intent, and her killing intent was even sharper. There was an inexplicable light in her eyes that pierced Wang Yan's eyes and made his heart beat wildly. Wang Yan knew that the old nun's sudden killing intent was not without reason. It was because the Extinguishing Demonic Hand lived up to her name.
The reason why Nan Tuoni was called the 'Extinguishing Demonic Hand' by the people of the Pugilistic World and was even listed as one of the 'Two Devils' was not because she had a demonic nature in her heart. On the contrary, Nan Tuoni was famous for abhorring evil. Back when she was in the Pugilistic World, she was never lenient in punishing evildoers. During her decades in the Pugilistic World, she had killed countless evil cultivators of the Fiendish Dao who cultivated the Fiendish Dao. That was why she was given the title of 'Extinguishing Demonic Hand', which meant that all evil cultivators had died under Nan Tuoni's hands.
There was even a rumor in the Pugilistic World that Nan Tuoni had personally gone to the Aojian Villa and asked the Aojian Villa to abolish the Demonic Blood Technique in the Essence Condensation Sword Technique. It was because this secret technique required killing people to condense the Demonic Blood Qi, which was similar to the Fiendish Dao.
Although this matter was left unsettled in the end, as far as Wang Yan knew, most of the disciples who cultivated the Demonic Blood Sword Essence in the sect would only use the Demonic Blood Technique as a primer to cultivate the Sword Essence. After that, they would not deliberately cultivate it anymore. There were very few people like him who cultivated the Demonic Blood Technique to the third level.
The reason why Nan Tuoni suddenly attacked Wang Yan was because the Demonic Blood Qi on Wang Yan's body was extremely thick. Those who could sense it would know that Wang Yan had killed many people.
However, in the face of Nan Tuoni's huge pressure, although Wang Yan was afraid, he would not remain silent. He took a deep breath and said, "Senior, please allow me to report …"
Wang Yan immediately told her about the many things that happened after he entered the Northern Victory Province alone. Nan Tuoni did not interrupt him and only listened quietly. After Wang Yan finished, Nan Tuoni's expression softened a little. She said, "You have the dignity of the sect and the respect of your master. In addition, you are not strong enough, so your actions are understandable. However, your methods are still too cruel. The Pugilistic World has given you the title of 'Blood Demon Sword'. If I had not cultivated myself all these years, I would have definitely taught you a lesson."
If I had not used cruel methods, how could I have lived until today?
Although Nan Tuoni was his senior, it was difficult for Wang Yan to agree with her admonition. More importantly, most of the people he killed were players. They were immortal players. Being merciful to players? This was completely in conflict with Wang Yan's thoughts. His Taoist heart could not tolerate such thoughts. He could not help but ask, "Senior, do you know about the Dissimilated Men?"
Wang Yan, who was bowing to receive the admonition, suddenly straightened his back. This surprised Nan Tuoni slightly. She focused her gaze and said, "I know a thing or two about the people from beyond the heavens."
"The Dissimilated Men are immortal. They do not really exist in this world, but they enjoy killing and robbing in this world. I have been chased and intercepted several times, and most of them were done by the Dissimilated Men. If my killing intent was not strong enough, I would have become a pile of bones by the side of the road if I hesitated for even a moment."
Wang Yan's words were his fundamental thoughts. Although he had special feelings for Zhang Xiaobao, Diwu Yun, Xia He, Gu Xiaoyue, and Bai Daoxin, he would treat them differently. But for the entire group of players, he had always treated them as his natural enemy. This was a fundamental part of his Taoist heart, and it would not be easily shaken.
After hearing these words, Nan Tuoni's reaction was very strange. She seemed to be lost, she seemed to be thinking about something, and she seemed to be in a dilemma. In the end, she glanced at Bai Daoxin and shook her head, "The 'chaos' in this Jianghu has never disappeared. So what if there is a strong division of right and wrong? The human heart is hard to predict. Greed, anger, anger, and all kinds of evil can take away human lives. It is even harder for humans to go against the heavens. If the heavens want the world to be in chaos, how can humans resist it? "
After saying that, Nan Tuoni turned around and walked away. Her skinny figure looked very desolate. Wang Yan could feel something from this senior's words. Perhaps this Demon Vanquisher once had great ambitions, and wanted to cleanse the world with his own power. She wanted to divide the Jianghu into good and evil, and she only looked at right and wrong. But in the end, the human heart was hard to predict, and the so-called 'Will of the Heavens' was even harder to resist. In the end, the Jianghu was still a place where the big fish ate the small fish, and the small fish ate the shrimps. The strong were respected, and the weak were subservient. Perhaps it was because of this that the Demon Vanquisher went into seclusion and did not appear in the Jianghu for decades.
