Chapter 37

**Kill!**

In the midst of cherry blossoms dancing in the wind, Misaki opened the old diary and read the words of the promise written there.

**Listen, listen, kill!**

Guchen Sha aimed at the Black Bat Demon's vulnerability, his hands moving as swiftly as lightning, infinitely versatile, striking the fatal points all over the demon's body.

He had fought this demon twice, though both times with Lou Baoyue and Long Yuyun as the main combatants, and he had only provided support. Nevertheless, he gained considerable experience in life-and-death battles, and his martial arts became increasingly proficient. Many things he had previously not understood about the Sun and Moon Cultivation and the Sun and Moon Transformation now became clear to him.

Of course, such insights were not enough to elevate him to the Dao Realm; he needed more practical combat to trigger further growth.

"Boy, this time it's either you or me who dies." The Black Bat Demon, whose meridians were injured by the Dragon Bone Sword, had his strength greatly reduced, but his ferocity increased. The black hook in his hand cast a shadow, deflecting the Dragon Bone Sword, and then slashed through the air, creating a field of energy like a giant abyss mouth, ready to swallow Guchen Sha.

"This demon's speed and strength have decreased significantly." With Long Yuyun restraining the demon, Guchen Sha was not worried about being injured. He immediately saw the vulnerability and, ignoring the black hook, thrust his palm forward, using the Dragon Claw to strike the heart.

This dragon was the Sun and Moon Dragon Form from the Sun and Moon Transformation. While the Sun and Moon Transformation could simulate countless techniques, the most powerful was the Sun and Moon Dragon Claw. His claw shadow generated layers of force.

*Chi!*

Guchen Sha's claw broke through the Black Bat Demon's defenses, digging deep into the flesh.

Meanwhile, the Black Bat Demon's long hook was blocked by Long Yuyun.

Guchen Sha's move was extremely risky; if Long Yuyun had not blocked the hook, he would have been split in two. This was a completely self-sacrificing attack.

If he had not used this risky move, he could not have injured the Black Bat Demon.

The Black Bat Demon, despite being repeatedly injured, continued to fight fiercely. He roared, his chest muscles contracting, and Guchen Sha's claw could not penetrate. The flesh turned into writhing serpents, even threatening to crush his hand.

"Is the Second Transformation of the Dao Realm so powerful? I don't believe it!" Guchen Sha, feeling the unexpected strength of the Dao Realm, roared, his arm trembling, and all his strength burst forth, using all his skills to tear the Black Bat Demon apart.

"Dragon Sword Unification!"

At this moment, Long Yuyun, holding the Dragon Bone Sword, focused her spirit and energy into one strike, thrusting it at the Black Bat Demon's forehead.

"Black Bat Demon Hand!"

The Black Bat Demon abandoned his hook and grabbed the Dragon Bone Sword, preventing it from piercing his forehead.

He was like an immortal evil god, resolving many critical situations.

"Grabbing the Dragon Bone Sword, do you think you have achieved the Ninth Transformation of the Dao Realm, the Crystal Jade Body?" Long Yuyun shook the sword, and a tremendous force emanated from the Dragon Bone Sword, exceeding the strength of nine oxen and two tigers. This was the power of the sword itself.

*Bang!*

The Black Bat Demon's hand exploded, blood and flesh mangled.

The sword's momentum continued, finally striking his forehead.

"Good opportunity!" Seeing the Black Bat Demon's momentum wane, Guchen Sha's palm plunged deep, grabbing the demon's heart, and communicated with the sacrificial space.

*Zi zi zi...*

The Black Bat Demon's blood essence and soul were suddenly absorbed into the sacrificial space, floating above the altar, emitting ghostly cries.

"Such powerful blood and soul! Even in the Black Bat Demon's soul, there is an incomprehensible, evil, and powerful will, the will of an evil god..." Guchen Sha's will observed, and he discovered that deep within the Black Bat Demon's soul, there seemed to be a massive evil god sitting on a throne of bones, surrounded by mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

Just the sacrifice of the Black Bat Demon's soul alone was equivalent to countless heavenly dew, and it contained the will of an evil god, making it immeasurable.

"Is he dead?" Long Yuyun, who had stabbed a hole in the Black Bat Demon's head and retracted her sword, was quite puzzled. "Did his soul get taken by the evil god at the moment of his death? Why didn't I feel the soul dissipate into the universe?"

"Perhaps. It is said that those who believe in evil gods have their souls become the evil god's nourishment upon death." Guchen Sha naturally did not reveal the secret.

Long Yuyun did not argue, quickly searching the Black Bat Demon's body. Suddenly, she took out a black-golden gourd, opened it, and inside was a radiant light.

"Indeed, it is the Maha Divine Pill!"

"The Maha Divine Pill, obtained by sacrificing to the evil god king, Maha? It is said that this pill is the supreme treasure of the evil path, but I don't know its specific effects." Guchen Sha recalled the books he had studied.

"This pill is extremely rare. How many people did the Black Bat Demon sacrifice to obtain this treasure?" Long Yuyun put it away, claiming it for herself. "I will use the Dragon Sword Island's demon-exorcising array to concentrate the power of the Sun and Moon to dispel the evil energy in this pill. After taking it, I have a chance to advance to the Second Transformation, or even the Third Transformation." As she spoke, she looked at Guchen Sha's expression.

Guchen Sha had no objections to her obtaining the pill and simply squatted down to search further.

Suddenly, he took out a bundle from the Black Bat Demon's chest. Inside, it glowed with gold, and it was a scroll.

"Why does it feel like the aura of an emperor?" Guchen Sha felt familiar and opened the scroll. Instantly, a golden dragon was embroidered on it, extremely majestic, with an imperial seal. The seal read "Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon" in ancient characters, followed by a document of enfeoffment, stating that the Black Bat Demon was enfeoffed as a duke.

"This is from the Great Mighty Dynasty." Long Yuyun was surprised. "Why is it here? And the Black Bat Demon is enfeoffed? I only remember hearing from my ancestors when I was young that the Great Mighty Dynasty sent envoys to the overseas countries a hundred years ago, enfeoffing titles, hoping to make the countries join the Great Mighty Dynasty, but no one paid attention, and the envoys returned."

The Great Mighty Dynasty was extremely far from the overseas countries, and even experts who could fly ten thousand miles a day would need to fly for several decades to reach it. This distance exceeded the limits of human imagination, so there would be no interaction.

Now, the imperial edict of the Great Mighty Dynasty was found on the Black Bat Demon, which was quite intriguing.

Could it be that the dynasty, separated by tens of thousands of miles, was also involved in the war between the Great Yong Dynasty and the barbarians? And even helping the barbarians?

The imperial edict of the Great Mighty Dynasty having the aura of an emperor was not surprising. In the distant continent, this dynasty ruled countless people, and the people's recognition of the dynasty's laws gradually became deeply rooted, naturally nurturing the aura of an emperor.

"Good stuff, the Black Bat Demon truly gives me a surprise." Guchen Sha was delighted, putting the edict away to secretly sacrifice it later, which would surely bring benefits.

In the bundle, besides the edict, there was also a book called the "Black Bat Demon Scripture," which recorded many evil martial arts and methods to communicate with evil gods.

"This Black Bat Demon Scripture is a royal-level martial art and is quite valuable. The Black Bat Demon is a powerful martial artist, not even a god, but he called himself a god. He was sealed or killed by the Heavenly Talisman Emperor, so the method to communicate with him no longer works. This is why the Black Bat Demon was fortunate to escape the control of the Black Bat Demon." Long Yuyun was indifferent to the scripture.

Guchen Sha glanced at it, memorized the martial arts, and put it away: "Handing over the Black Bat Demon and this scripture would be a great achievement. Do you want to share the credit? It could enhance the status of your Dragon Sword Island."

"Let it be. Our Dragon Sword Island did not even want a title back then. Now that it has been attacked by the First Prince and scattered, the credit is yours." Long Yuyun said.

"Fine." Guchen Sha thought it was better for Long Yuyun to remain hidden. They were just collaborators.

Guchen Sha searched again but found no more valuable items on the Black Bat Demon, so he grabbed the corpse and left.

"I will gather information and contact you if anything happens." Long Yuyun leaped away.

In the mansion, the Southern Governor and many experts were circling around the Black Bat Demon's corpse, while Guchen Sha sat in the main seat, eyes closed, resting.

"Governor, this demon is indeed the old demon, the Black Bat Demon." A grandmaster said, "Was it really the Nineteenth Prince who killed him?"

"The corpse is here, and his scripture is here. Do you think he committed suicide?" Guchen Sha sneered. "I will write a memorial and send it out tonight. Of course, the credit for killing this demon also belongs to you."

"I, a sinner, dare not claim credit." The Southern Governor quickly knelt. "The Nineteenth Prince's martial arts are unparalleled, and I have nothing to do with it."

"Transporting the corpse and the scripture to the court is also evidence." Guchen Sha instructed. "This Black Bat Demon is a Dao Realm expert. Sending his corpse to the Heavenly Engineering Academy's Medical Department for research could bring significant benefits. He killed countless civilians, and if his corpse can help develop methods to save lives, it would somewhat make up for his sins."

"Yes!"

"Dismissed."

"Yes!"

The empty room was left with only Guchen Sha. He disappeared, entering the altar, lit the divination grass, and began to sacrifice the Black Bat Demon's soul and blood.

*Buzz...*

On the altar, a blinding green light emerged, and the Black Bat Demon's soul instantly merged into the Heavenly Dao. The evil god's will struggled, emitting evil incantations.

"What is this, trying to swallow my will?" Guchen Sha heard the evil god's will roaring, but it was helpless.

*Bang!*

Suddenly, the evil god's will exploded and was also swallowed by the Heavenly Dao.

Then, in the air above the altar, droplets of heavenly dew appeared, totaling over a hundred.

"Over a hundred droplets." Guchen Sha was overjoyed, quickly collecting them with a gourd but not taking them out, leaving them in the altar space, which had storage capabilities.

He then took out the imperial edict of the Great Mighty Dynasty and sacrificed it again.

*Bang!*

The edict burned up, and the aura of the emperor was swallowed by the Heavenly Dao. The altar did not change, but the technique of the emperor's enfeoffment appeared in the space.

"The third form of Sun and Moon Radiance, Sun and Moon Kill. This form is a technique to kill demons, purely destructive... ..."

The Sun and Moon Kill appeared, a purely destructive technique, where one's spirit, will, blood, and qi, and movements are in harmony with the sun and moon, resonating, and finally, the sun falls and the moon sinks. This is the true killing move in Sun and Moon Radiance, the strongest attack. Sun and Moon Cultivation is for gathering qi and focusing the spirit, and although it has techniques, its power is also great, but in terms of pure destruction, the Sun and Moon Kill far surpasses it.

Sun and Moon Cultivation and Sun and Moon Transformation have benefits in cultivation, enhancing one's abilities and strengthening the soul.

However, the Sun and Moon Kill is different and cannot be used lightly. Once used, it will damage oneself.

"Good, with the Sun and Moon Kill, I have a surefire technique. Surprising a First Transformation Dao Realm expert and killing them is not difficult." Guchen Sha thought.

The First Transformation of the Dao Realm, compared to a grandmaster, has the advantage of absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, as well as greater speed, strength, reaction, and momentum. However, it is not invincible. It is still a physical body and can be killed by a sword or a knife.
