I can only beat noobs.

Chapter 226: Immortal Scripture
"Although the Chongming Golden Flame is miraculous, it is still no match for those two Demon Lords."

As Luo Zhouwu watched the golden flames on Chen Ming's body grow dimmer and dimmer under the suppression of the two demonic lights, one blue and one purple, he could already foresee the boy's fate.

Either become a slave to the demonic sword.

Or they will be possessed by the Undying Demon Lord.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but worry. This kid's talent was probably no less than that of his junior nephew Su Zhining. Now that he had been possessed by the Demon Lord, he would surely become a major threat to the righteous path in the future.

Unfortunately, he had just transferred all his available power to Chen Ming through "Heavenly Heart," and now he had to suppress the demonic nature within him, so he was powerless to stop it.

Why should I worry about these things?

Luo Zhouwu suddenly realized that once that kid's body was possessed, he too would die here. He wouldn't be able to see how that kid would wreak havoc on the world in the future.

Just then, he saw someone stand up and walk towards Chen Ming.

"is her?"

Luo Zhouwu's heart skipped a beat, and he realized how he had forgotten about her.

Of the people present, Zhou Yilan was the only one who was able to move.

"What does she want to do?"

As Zhou Yilan walked step by step in front of Chen Ming, Luo Zhouwu couldn't help but think, "Could it be that she wants to avenge her husband?"

Regardless, her husband, Ruan Caixiong, died at the hands of this man. After all, they had been married for over ten years, and it's understandable that she wanted revenge after witnessing her husband's murder.

Zhou Yilan walked to Ruan Caixiong's side, took Fang Yong's natal tortoise shell from his body, and threw it at Fang Yong.

Then, he walked up to Chen Ming, reached out, grasped the hilt of the "Zhi Chi Demon Sword," and laboriously pulled it out of Chen Ming's body.

The demonic sword vibrated with a buzzing sound, as if it were somewhat unwilling.

However, Zhou Yilan had learned the "Nine Netherworld Technique," which allowed her to manipulate the demonic sword for short periods before becoming a sword slave.

"drink--"

She poured all her life's energy into the demonic sword, and in an instant, it shone with a brilliant blue light. The entire space seemed to tremble.

"What does she want to do?"

Luo Zhouwu was somewhat alarmed. With her second-grade cultivation, was she trying to kill herself by wielding the power of the demonic sword like that?

"break!"

The power of the demonic sword reached a critical point, and Zhou Yilan let out her last roar, swinging the demonic sword in her hand.

A sizzle!
Wherever the demonic sword went, a rift was torn open in space.

"Senior brother, quick, get out of here..."

She looked at her two severely injured senior brothers with endless longing before her body disintegrated.

This sword strike was delivered at the cost of her life.

The Infinite Demon Sword is a rare and unparalleled divine weapon with spatial attributes. In this low-level secret realm, its power is enough to cleave through space.

"Junior sister—"

Fang Yong let out a mournful cry, and with all his strength, he stood up and jumped the dying Zhou You into the escape passage that his junior sister had carved out with her life.

Whoosh!
Just as the crack was about to close again, Chen Ming, whose body was half purple light and half golden flame, suddenly flew out and entered the passage.

The Demon Sword also wanted to escape into that passage, but it was too late and was held down by a hand.

It was Luo Zhouwu who took the initiative and prevented it from escaping this space.

buzz-

The Demon Sword, though seemingly powerless, let out a mournful cry. Unfortunately, it was merely a divine weapon, capable of unleashing its full power only in the hands of a human.

Without the sword slave, no matter how powerful it is, it's just a divine weapon, useless even with its immense power.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have been suppressed here for so many years.

Ignoring his injuries, Luo Zhouwu forcibly kept the Instant Demon Sword, feeling a sense of relief.

Thankfully, the demonic sword didn't escape.

only……

He looked at the spot where the spatial rift had disappeared, a shadow of gloom flashing in his eyes. That kid would definitely be possessed by the Undying Demon Lord.

"Although it is only a wisp of spirit, with that kid's talent, if he were to switch to cultivating the Undying Primordial Spirit, given time, he might become another peerless demon lord."

No, this matter must be reported to the alliance as soon as possible. We must eliminate this child before he grows up.

……

Chen Ming felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, as if his body and soul were being torn into countless pieces.

It felt like a long time had passed, yet also like only a moment had gone by.

He felt a sudden brightness before his eyes, realizing that the world had finally returned to its original colors: green mountains and clear waters, a clear blue sky, and fluffy white clouds that looked so welcoming and brought him joy.

At that moment, a sense of foreboding suddenly arose in his mind.

whoosh-

He used the last bit of internal energy he had left to dodge the sneak attack from behind.

"It's you?"

Chen Ming flew over and arrived several feet away. He turned around and saw that the person who attacked him was Fang Yong. Although Fang Yong's internal energy had been sealed by several Dragon-Sealing Needles and half of his shoulder and an arm had been cut off, he still looked alive and well.

Fang Yong looked at him coldly, "You have quite the skills, sir, to disguise yourself as my nephew and follow us all the way. What exactly do you intend to do?"

At this moment, Zhou You, who had suffered repeated blows, also stood up and stared at him menacingly. The wound on his mouth had not yet healed, making him look somewhat ferocious and terrifying.

Seeing their expressions, Chen Ming knew they wouldn't let him leave easily. He sighed, "Words are useless, let's do it." At the same time, he summoned his control panel and silently chanted, "Add points!"

I added one million points to "Five Elements True Skill".

【Level: 71】

Current points: 1783783

[Techniques: Iron Horse Stake (Fifth Level Completed), Five Elements True Skill (Missing) (Seventh Level 1242456/10000000)]

Martial Arts: Three Talents Fist (Mastery), Eight Trigrams Saber Technique (Mastery), Zhuang Family Flying Knife (Mastery), Swallow Return Sword Technique (Mastery), Vermilion Bird Sword Technique (Mastery), Phoenix Dance in the Nine Heavens (Ninth Level Perfection), Heaven and Earth Lone Goose (Second Level 35734/2000000)

[Secret Techniques: Disguise Technique (Mastery), Weapon Nourishment Technique (Level 1, 1/100000), Weapon Control Technique (Level 9, 1/900000)]

After leveling up, the depleted internal energy was instantly restored.

Chen Ming gripped the "Mingfeng Sword," sneered, and in a flash appeared above Fang Yong's head, slashing down with his sword, "Die!"

not good!

Zhou You and Fang Yong were greatly alarmed. They had thought that the boy had exhausted so much energy and was now being eroded by the purple demonic energy, so he shouldn't have much strength left.

How can he still use that elusive movement technique?

"Senior brother, be careful—"

Before Fang Yong could finish speaking, he saw his senior brother Zhou You beheaded with a single sword stroke, dying on the spot. "No—"

A moment later, he followed in his senior brother's footsteps, his head being chopped off with a sword.

You have defeated a level 94 enemy and gained 250 million experience points.

You have defeated a level 98 enemy and gained 250 million experience points.

It seems that at the current level, killing one enemy will yield a maximum of 2.5 million experience points.

Chen Ming was in a great mood, as the experience points he had previously added to "Phoenix Dance in the Nine Heavens" and "Weapon Control Technique" were all made up for in one go.

To be honest, he didn't originally intend to kill the two of them; he only did so because Zhou Yilan had shown mercy earlier.

When Zhou Yilan drew her sword just now, she could have killed him with one stroke, but she still let him go. He had to accept this favor.

However, since he intended to let them go, but they still wanted to kill him, he couldn't blame them.

Just then, Chen Ming heard an unwilling roar in his mind. The consciousness of the Undying Demon Lord was finally obliterated by the golden flames.

"Die like this?"

There's something incredible about him.

Wasn't this supposed to be an immortal demon lord? His primordial spirit was supposed to be immortal and indestructible, so how could it be so easily obliterated?

This is not right!

Although the golden flames were incredibly powerful, easily incinerating even a first-rank demon, that was a Demon Lord, an existence that even the world's most powerful experts couldn't completely annihilate, only suppress...

"what is this?"

Chen Ming searched through his thoughts and found several cultivation techniques in his mind.

The Undying True Scripture, The Great Method of Primordial Spirit Differentiation, The Technique of Soul Division and Transference.

Besides these, there are many memories that didn't originally belong to me.

Some of it belonged to the Demon Lord himself, but it seems to be incomplete.

There were a few other people, including Gu Xianyu, and the second-rank officials he had just killed.

Chen Ming skipped over them, refusing to examine the techniques and memories, lest they be a trap.

This immortal demon lord is too strange. Who knows if there are any lingering thoughts within its memories? Be careful not to get corrupted.

In any case, it seems that the crisis has been temporarily averted.

However, he still felt a vague unease in his heart.

He stretched out his hand, and a golden flame the size of a lighter flame emerged. "That's all that's left."

He had been prepared to die when he swallowed the golden flame.

To everyone's surprise, the golden flames entering his body did not harm him in the slightest. It wasn't until the demonic thoughts of the demonic sword invaded and the Undying Demon Lord tried to possess him that the golden flames engaged in a fierce battle with them.

Fortunately, the demonic sword was removed, which allowed Jin Yan to successfully destroy the primordial spirit of the Undying Demon Lord.

In the end, only this small amount of golden flame remained.

"but--"

Chen Ming's heart stirred, and he absorbed the wisp of golden flame into his body, continuously channeling it into his Qi Sea. With each cycle of circulation, the Qi in his body became one degree purer.

"So, the True Fire Technique can refine this golden flame."

So, the reason why Yu Haitang suddenly unleashed strength exceeding the first rank in the Fire Element Space was because she possessed the divine artifact corresponding to the "Mysterious Wood True Skill".

A question that had been puzzling him was finally answered.

"When my 'Mysterious Fire True Skill' is cultivated to a certain level, its power may reach the level of Golden Flame."

He thought to himself, "If I master all five elements of true skill and then fuse them with the five divine objects, how strong would I become?"
However, that was just wishful thinking. Now that this incident has occurred, Luo Zhouwu only needs to exchange information with Su Zhining to guess his identity.

I definitely can't go back to Jiangzhou.

On another note, where is this place?
"Let's ask someone first."

Just as Chen Ming was about to leave, he suddenly noticed a black broken sword next to Zhou You's corpse, while Fang Yong's body was covered by a black tortoise shell.

"This is... their life-bound artifact?"
