I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon - Chapter 302

It was ten o’clock!

Ling PingAn looked at the data updated in the author’s statistics.

Forty-two…

Five more collections have been added.

It was quite average!

More than half of the original manuscripts had been published.

The young web author supported his cheeks and have a thought, “It looks like I have to speed up my typing speed…”

“Starting tomorrow, I must type 7,000 words a day!”

“This is the only way that I can have enough manuscripts!”

This had placed a very high demand on him undoubtedly.

That meant that he must continue giving up his hobby of playing games.

For the sake of interest, he had to give up his hobbies…

It was a little uneasy.

He scratched his head. “I have no choice…”

“I have to finish what I promised even if I have to kneel!”

There was only one month left until his aunt returned from her vacation.

He had to earn the money for the big meal that he promised his aunt as soon as possible!

“Sigh!” The young bookstore owner couldn’t help but sigh. “It would be great if a rich man came…”

However, the problem was that the last time this bookstore had a turnover of over 1,000 before he took over the store.

Ling Pingan lowered his head when he thought of this.

It was a good bookstore, but it had been run by him to its current state.

He felt a little ashamed.

Fortunately, he had always been ambitious, so he had to get through it quickly.

“It’s not that I’m incompetent…” he said, “But the situation and trend is like this!”

The mobile Internet devoured everything with its rapid development speed.

He was not the first to be affected, and he would not be the last.

Therefore…

“It’s not a crime of war!”

Therefore, the young bookstore owner laughed carelessly.

……

Xiao Man jumped up from the ground and gripped the short sword in her hand tightly.

“Die!” There was a decisive look in her eyes.

Clang!

The short sword in her hand let out a crisp dragon’s roar.

There was a word lights burst out from the blade.

In the sword lights, Xiao Man’s figure was like a swimming fish as she stabbed upwards.

In the sky, Xiao Man’s target didn’t panic even though she was ambushed.

She rolled her greyish-white eyes that looked like a dead fish.

Her severely deformed hand stretched out directly…

“Swordsman remnants…” It opened its mouth and its sharp teeth were filled with mockery. “I was just worried about where to look for you guys!”

“And you came to me…”

“Very good!”

Lumps of flesh bulged on the outstretched deformed arm and he grabbed Xiao Man directly.

With just a light grab, the sword light that bloomed on Xiao Man’s blade was completely grasped by the deformed hand that and it was disgusting.

The sharp sword light, like a dog’s tail grass, was mashed into a ball in the deformed hand that was covered with lumps.

That pair of dead fish-like grey-white eyeballs only glanced at Xiao Man who was still charging at it recklessly.

It understood the will of this swordsman.

She was here to die.

How ridiculous!

It thought that these ridiculous humans always had all sorts of ridiculous reasons.

The human was like ants, but they thought that their sacrifice was useful.

However…

The truth was…

Whether they resisted or surrendered.

They would still die like this.

It wouldn’t change their fate of being exterminated.

This fact was established.

However, it looked at the human swordsman.

Her flesh and soul would definitely be delicious.

Thinking of this, its sharp teeth couldn’t help but rub against each other.

“Human, come into my mouth obediently…”

“Be my food!”

Xiao Man heard the terrifying monster’s voice, even though her flesh and soul were already trembling.

But she still mustered up her courage and used all her strength and will to control her body.

She had to fight for time!

Fight for time for the children in the village to escape!

Even if she had died!

Thus, she gritted her teeth and activated her remaining magic power, activating a few sword lights once again.

She knew that she was weak and vulnerable in front of such a monster and could not withstand a single blow.

However, as long as she could hold it off for even a breath, it would be good.

With every breath that she held off, the children in the village would have more chance to escape.

She even shattered a special fragrance sachet in her arms, making her flesh and soul more delicious for the monster so that it could chew on it a few more times.

This was the sorrow of this world.

Immortals and supreme-rulers had long been a term of the past.

Even demons and devils had become a term of history.

After the fall of the heavens, the extraterrestrial devils swarmed in.

Countless great cultivators were caught off guard by these shapeless and invisible devils.

Their souls became the delicious meal for the demon.

Their bodies were taken over by the Sky Demons, becoming tools for the devil to do evil.

Only sword cultivators were lucky enough to survive this unprecedented catastrophe.

The other cultivators were all devoured by the Sky Demons and their souls were stolen.

They had become monsters that were neither human nor ghost.

They had become the scourge of heaven and earth!

Just like this monster, this deformed monster.

Its body was that of a great cultivator of the core formation stage!

Xiao Man closed her eyes as she recalled this. She was brave to die, but after all, she did not have the courage to watch her own death.

She could feel the stench emanating from the monster’s body becoming stronger and stronger.

The twisted evil spirit aura from its body was pressing towards her continuously.

“Goodbye…” Xiao Man said in her heart, “All the elders in the village…”

“Goodbye…”

“Master… Uncle… Senior sister…”

One familiar figure after another flashed through Xiao Man’s mind.

She was still filled with nostalgia for this world.

But this was the reason that she had to die so generously.

For her family and everyone!

Someone had to sacrifice!

But…

Xiao Man suddenly couldn’t sense the aura of the demon.

She didn’t feel the pain or torture of her physical body or soul as well.

Her surroundings were quiet…

And Xiao Man found that the spirit aura around her seemed to have dried up.

Without the supply and support of spirit aura, her body was falling rapidly inevitably. This was something that couldn’t be helped. She was just a sword cultivator who just built her foundation, and she didn’t even have a sword pellet yet. She still needed to rely on the spirit aura from the outside world to support herself.

She opened her eyes.

There was a hazy grey mist in front of her.

It was so dark that she could not see her own fingers.

The Sky Demon of the core formation stage had disappeared.

There was fog around her.

The sky was a fog, her body was a fog, and even her body was a fog.

This fog was a world formed by fog…

Her body kept falling in this world.

“Could it be…”Xiao man was puzzled, “Did I met a mirage demon?”

According to legend, there were mirages in ancient times.

It breathed in and breathed out mirage fog, trapping travellers in the illusory world it created.

But the problem was.

Mirage demons were usually found by the sea, and they could only be found in the deep sea.

Moreover, they only appeared in the immemorial legends.

After the immemorial era, there were no more records of them.

Therefore, this couldn’t be an illusory environment created by the Mirage Demon.

Soon, Xiao Man knew that her guess was correct.

Because she landed on the ground.

She fell from the fog to the solid ground.

Bang!

Her body was making a contact with the ground, making a crisp sound.

Fortunately, as a sword cultivator, even if she was only a sword cultivator who had just reached the foundation level, her body was still strong.

Therefore, she was not injured at all. She bounced up from the ground like a carp.

The fog in front of her was still heavy and she could see nothing.

However, Xiao Man jumped on the ground. The ground was hard and flat.

“So…”Xiao Man had a thought, “There are people or intelligent creatures who live here!”

Moreover, they must be creatures that could communicate with each other.

That was because, like Sky Demon, although they were intelligent, they were evil creatures that only had the urge to kill and destroy. They wouldn’t able to do any construction.

Creatures that could build, even demons, were ten thousand times better than the Sky Demon!

They could even become her allies!

This was common-sense after the fall of heaven.

The demons and humans had abandoned their past grudges a long time ago and stood together hand in hand when they were facing a greater crisis.

Therefore, Xiao Man felt delighted.

But, the mist was too heavy.

She could not see her surroundings clearly, nor could she see the road clearly.

She could only run around in the mist like a headless fly.

Suddenly, her foot seemed to have touched something.

It was soft…

Xiao man tried to kick it. It felt like a human body.

She squatted down and touched it with her hand.

She touched an ice-cold, deformed corpse.

Touching the corpse, Xiao Man felt creepy as if she were a mortal who had met a tiger or leopard.

She swallowed her saliva and continued to touch it.

She could felt some prominent scales and deformed skin under the scales.

She touched a piece of cold metal when she was touching it again.

She picked it up and looked at it.

Xiao Man was silent.

It was a command symbol token of the sect master, engraved with the words: Green Mountain Token!

It was the token of the sect master of the Green Mountain sect!

It was said that the Green Mountain sect was founded by the Masters of the Green Mountain Sect.

The Green Mountain sect was the largest in the Green Mountain County before Tianqing, and the sect master, Xuan Qingzi, had practised to the late stage of the core formation.

Xiao Man took a deep breath.

She knew that this corpse was probably the monster whose body had been stolen by the Sky demons, whom she had ambushed and attacked earlier.

Tzzz… Tzzz…

Xiao Man heard the sound of flesh and blood corroding, coming from the place in front of her.

As she listened, she also smelled a kind of fragrance in her nose.

It was similar to the legendary fragrance that appears when a cultivator formed the core.

Xiao man gulped. She squatted down and touched the corpse on the ground.

She touched nothing.

It was as if there was nothing on the ground before.

The corpse of a core cultivator, the body of a cultivator that was stolen by the Sky Demon, was vaporized in front of her in an instant.

Even the clothes and weapons were vaporized.

“This is impossible!” Xiao Man was extremely shocked.

Because this was beyond her knowledge and common sense.

Everyone knew that after the fall of heaven, the Immortals and supreme-rulers were gone, and no one could suppress the Sky Demon.

These terrifying monsters caused numerous disasters between heaven and earth as they killed and devoured more and more humans and demons.

The bodies of these monsters began to distort and deform.

From then on, ordinary weapons and magic art could no longer harm them.

Moreover, these monsters had all sorts of incredible abilities.

Immortality was one of them — even if they were killed and chopped up.

Their pieces of flesh would be joined together again and transforming into even more dangerous and terrifying monsters.

There was only one way to prevent them from resurrecting — burn all the flesh and blood of the Sky Demon.

However, this was only a temporary solution.

Because the Sky demon without a physical body was just chased back into the void.

But the sky had collapsed!

Therefore, it would still follow the hole between the void and the Heaven and earth to climb to the present world. As long as it found a cultivator’s physical body that could be stolen.

It would make a comeback.

This was the terrifying part of these things!

Therefore, regardless of whether it was the demon race or the human race, they had strictly forbidden any cultivation other than the way of the sword as they knew about it.

But…

In this mist, Xiao Man witnessed the physical body of a core Sky demon being vaporized by some special strength.

What did this mean?

Xiao Man was a little excited.

Because she knew that there was a strength here that could destroy the Sky demon!

Suddenly, Xiao Man’s eyes saw a light source flickering on the ground in front of her.

A green halo was circulating.

She walked over, stretched out her hand, and picked up the glowing object.

It was a spherical crystal.

It was about the size of a pigeon egg and felt warm to the touch.

Xiao Man looked carefully and saw a green halo, which occasionally emanated from the crystal.

“This is…” Xiao Man said solemnly, “An aurous core of a core formation stage cultivator!”

An aurous core was the symbol of a core formation stage cultivator.

It was the foundation of their entire life’s cultivation!

It was said if a core formation stage cultivator could give birth to a nascent soul in his aurous core, then he would enter a whole new realm and become an existence that was qualified to comprehend the path of longevity.

However, after the fall of heaven, there were only a few people in the world who could step into this realm.

That was because the soul of a great cultivator in this realm was a fatal attraction to the Sky Demon.

Even for sword cultivators, there was nothing else they could ask for other than the sword. A sword cultivator with a firm heart could not escape the fate of being besieged and killed by countless Sky demons.

What made Xiao Man even more surprised was that there was a distorted afterimage inside the golden core, struggling and wailing.

When she looked carefully, Xiao Man could recognize it.

It was the remnant soul of the Sky Demon!

“Hiss!” Xiao Man held the golden core in her hand and sucked in a breath of cold air. “In this fog, even the Sky demon couldn’t break free…”

“It was destroyed by the power of the fog!”

“Only this remnant soul had avoided the evaporation because of me!”

“What is this place?”

Xiao Man asked herself, but she didn’t have an answer.

She knew that even the immortals before the fall of heaven probably didn’t have an answer.

Because before the fall of heaven, the Sky Demon existed.

However, at that time, the immortals guarded the world.

Any Sky Demon that sneaked into the world would be found and expelled by them.

Expelled!

Even the immortals, could only expel the Sky Demon and they couldn’t be eliminated. However, when they were here, in this fog, they had no way to escape. It was evaporated and eliminated by some power.

At this moment, Xiao Man suddenly saw a light source in the depths of the fog illuminating the surroundings.

There was someone there!
