In order to complete the second stage of the mission of slaying the ten demon clans, one must have great strength and luck.
If one's strength and luck were not enough, one might accidentally intrude into the territory of some super great demons and die without a burial place.
Moreover, there were tens of thousands of demon clans. In order to completely eliminate a clan, it was best to choose those with low strength and few numbers. Such clans were not easy to find.
Only the Ji Family's tens of thousands of years of experience allowed their descendants to know how to find targets. They also knew which areas were more likely to give birth to strange Demon Clans. These Demon Clans were few in number and were more concentrated, so it was best to use them for missions.
In just three days, Ji Fengxiao had found four demon clans suitable for missions for Lin Xuan. This made Lin Xuan feel very good.
Under Ji Fengxiao's guidance, Lin Xuan led the group over several mountains and landed on the ground. They carefully took a long detour and passed through the territories of some great demons, safely arriving at the territory of a group of demons.
This was a valley, and the ground in the valley was an extremely rare dark green color. Dark green poisonous fog was gathering and dispersing in the sky. Some wild beasts and low-level ferocious beasts that accidentally trespassed into the valley would quickly be reduced to skeletons in the poisonous fog.
In the depths of the valley, clumsy behemoths could be faintly seen moving.
"My Lord, there is a bear demon clan living here. They are extremely rare colorful poisonous bears. There should be no more than 50 of them and the strongest one should not exceed the third rank."
Standing at the entrance of the valley, Ji Fengxiao explained respectfully to Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan looked up and asked doubtfully, "How can you be sure that this bear demon clan is suitable for missions?"
Ji Fengxiao frowned slightly. She seemed to be a little unhappy with Lin Xuan's suspicion, but she still answered honestly, "My Lord, it is impossible to be 100% certain about this kind of thing. No one can guarantee that there will be such a bear demon in other places in this demon territory.
However, according to my observations, this valley full of poison was created by the corpse of a snake demon that failed to transcend its tribulation. The environment here is unique because of this. A unique environment is very likely to give birth to a unique demon. "
"Hmm, that makes sense."
Lin Xuan nodded. He rubbed his hands together and his body shook. Endless rainbow sword light shot out from his body, forming a storm of sword Qi a kilometer in diameter. It spun wildly and pushed into the depths of the valley.
Chi! Chi!
The boundless Sword Qi shattered the void and also shattered everything in the world. The rocks, grass, and trees were all turned into powder. Even the ground below was minced into fine sand.
Roar!
Roar!
A series of furious roars came from the depths of the valley. The earth trembled as if there were many gigantic creatures frantically fleeing.
However, the commotion soon subsided along with the miserable roars. The entire valley was flattened by Lin Xuan's Seven Kills Sword Domain, and all the living beings in the valley were killed.
However, Lin Xuan did not receive any notification from the Monster Slayers Clan, which made him frown slightly.
Seeing this, Ji Fengxiao said, "My Lord, the Bear Demon Clan in the valley is likely to go out to look for food, but they should not go too far. We can search the nearby mountains and forests."
"Hmm, you go and look for them! Bring back all the poisonous bears. Remember to catch them alive! "Lin Xuan nodded.
"Yes, my Lord!"
Ji Fengxiao, Shen Yukun, and Tu He took the order and spread out, searching the surrounding mountains and forests.
Lin Xuan sat down on a big rock, took out a pot of Wisdom Dragon Star Wine, and took a sip.
Now that they had entered the second stage of the Human Emperor Mystery Realm, Lin Xuan was thinking at this moment. What was the meaning of the first stage's Slaughter of a Million Demons and the second stage's Slay of the Ten Tribes of Monsters?
There was no doubt that the Human Emperor Mystery Realm was set up to select the owner of the Human Emperor Sword.
All the tests inside were to select a leader who had the qualifications to wield the Human Emperor Sword Seal, who had the ability to control humanity, and who could lead humanity to survive in this world where powerful races abounded.
This human leader had to be the best in terms of character, intelligence, talent, boldness, breadth of mind, strength, light from providence, and means. Furthermore, they had to be loyal to humanity and not bow their heads to other races.
As for whether there were any other tests, Lin Xuan did not know.
He considered himself, and without any modesty, believed that he had met most of the basic conditions mentioned above. Perhaps in a certain aspect, he wasn't the most outstanding, but in terms of overall strength, he was definitely one of the best in the Human Race.
After all, he had already experienced many tests to live to this day. He had stepped over the corpses of countless opponents to reach where he was today. The number of human experts that had died at his hands had reached a terrifying number.
If not for the fact that he needed to have the Ji family's bloodline, Lin Xuan believed that he had a chance of entering the Human Emperor Sword Seal.
The only thing to worry about was that he had already become a Son of Chaos and had joined Kunlun Temple. He was deeply involved with the Chaos race in the Chaos Heavens.
Also, the Connate Creation Sutra he cultivated might not necessarily be a human cultivation technique. If he were to continue cultivating it, his future would be uncertain.
If the path taken by the Infernal Supremacy was a path that had to be taken in order to cultivate the Connate Creation Sutra, then it was very likely that he would become a Fiend in the future. And this was his greatest concern.
Even though the Fiend Suppression Pagoda's Fiend was under his complete control, he was unable to truly feel at ease.
After all, his cultivation level and vision were limited. There were certain things that he could not grasp.
Upon coming to this realization, Lin Xuan could not help but sigh inwardly. This world was filled with pitfalls! If he were to accidentally fall into a pitfall of unknown depths, he would be consigned to eternal damnation.
Lin Xuan's mind became clearer and clearer after drinking half a flagon of Wisdom Dragon's Star Wine. He could not help but ask himself what kind of attitude he had towards the human race.
If there came a day when humanity was on the brink of destruction and needed him to make a sacrifice, or even give up his life, would he be willing to do so without hesitation?
He shook his head and laughed disdainfully. That was clearly impossible.
Ignoring sacrificing his life for humanity's safety, even if he had to give up his life for his women or brothers, he would not be willing to do so.
It was as though a voice from the unseen was warning him that he was, in essence, a selfish person. Everything he did for the people around him was built on the basis that his own interests were guaranteed. For this, he was willing to resort to unscrupulous means.
If there came a day when the entire human race needed to be sacrificed for his own sake, he would not hesitate to do so.
If humanity was destroyed, so be it. As long as he could reach the pinnacle of martial arts, nothing else mattered.
"Eh?"
Lin Xuan suddenly stood up. He bit the tip of his tongue to jolt himself out of his reverie.
At that moment, he suddenly felt that something was amiss.
Before this, although he admitted that he was a person who would resort to unscrupulous means to achieve his goals, he was still able to give his heart to his women and friends. In fact, there was a limit to how unscrupulous he could be. As a person, he also had a bottom line and principles.
But just now, it was as though there was an invisible hand controlling his thoughts. It was instilling in him things that did not belong to him, or things that he would never think about.
Suddenly, he raised his head and looked at the sky above. A deep sense of vigilance flashed across his eyes.
"Who is scheming against me!"
At that moment, although Lin Xuan did not know who was scheming against him, he vaguely understood the other party's intention. The other party was clearly trying to lead him into a ditch.
Think about it, a selfish, unscrupulous person who did not care about the greater good of humanity obviously could not become the owner of the Human Emperor's Sword Seal!
Someone was stopping him and did not want him to obtain the Human Emperor's Sword Seal.
"Haha, hahahaha!"
Suddenly, Lin Xuan laughed out loud. He looked at the endless sky and shouted, "No matter who you are, I will not let you go!" Since you did such a despicable thing, it means that you are afraid!
You are afraid that I will pass! You are afraid that I, Lin Xuan, will become the owner of the Human Emperor's Sword Seal!
This also means that I, Lin Xuan, am fully qualified to obtain the Human Emperor's Sword Seal and become the leader of humanity!
No matter who you are! You can't stop me! I hereby declare that when I obtain the Human Emperor's Sword in the future, I will definitely cut off your dog head — "
The mighty voice spread far and wide, reaching the Nine Heavens and echoing for a long time.
As soon as he finished speaking, an old voice filled with rage rang out from the sky, "What are you waiting for?
"How dare you! Ignorant and arrogant junior! I will not let you pass! You will die of old age in this round! "
Accompanying this voice was a clap of thunder in the clear sky. A snake-shaped lightning bolt descended from the sky and struck towards Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan grinned disdainfully. He did not dodge and allowed the lightning to strike him.
Boom!
The lightning struck Lin Xuan's head and blasted him deep into the ground. The ground within a ten-mile radius turned into a huge crater and dust filled the sky.
In the next moment, Lin Xuan broke out of the crater and flew into the air. He shook his robe and sneered disdainfully, "Bluffing old thing! If you have the ability, just strike me to death! I don't believe that the Human Emperor would allow his own secret realm to become a tool for some despicable person's personal gain! "
"You! You little bastard! I am so angry! "
That old voice was filled with anger. After cursing fiercely, there was no more sound from it.
Lin Xuan waited for a moment and gradually understood that the other party had given up on him. He could not help but smile coldly.
The reason he provoked the owner of this secret realm was partly because he was angry that the other party was scheming against him, and partly because he wanted to test the other party's background.
Of course, this was also because he had confirmed through his luck observation that there was no danger to his life. That was why he dared to do this.
After this round of probing, Lin Xuan had already vaguely confirmed that the other party might be able to have a certain influence on this secret realm trial, but he definitely would not be able to play a decisive role. Otherwise, he might have already turned into ashes.
Thinking about it, how important was the Human Emperor's Sword?
To choose the owner of the Human Emperor's Sword, there would definitely be a set of rules set by the Human Emperor himself. In this process, there might be some rule makers, but they would not be allowed to truly affect the ownership of the Human Emperor's Sword Seal.
