Supreme Demon God

The Nightmare Demon Hound had been subdued by Mo Xiu, but the gloomy light did not disappear, still isolating the small area from the rest of Desolate Ridge.

Less than a day had passed after seven days, and when the other disciples of the Seraphic Sword Sect had been resolved, as long as the seven days had passed before leaving Desolate Ridge, Mo Xiu would be able to obtain the only place left in the Seraphic Sword Sect.

Mo Xiu didn't waste the remaining six days. He ordered the Nightmare Demon Hound, and the Nightmare Demon Hound immediately got into the shadow behind him. After that, he found a place to sit down and closed his eyes to cultivate.

Running the Universe's Origin Heavenly Art, the entire Spiritual Energy of Desolate Ridge was absorbed by him, entered into his body, and transformed into True Energy and stored in his Dantian.

The Spiritual Energy of the Seraphic Sword Mountain Range was much richer than the Spiritual Energy of any place in the Yan Kingdom. Even if Mo Xiu absorbed only the Spiritual Energy in the Desolate Ridges, the speed of cultivation was still much faster than before in the Yan Kingdom. 

"Boom…"

After that, Mo Xiu's cultivation was easily promoted from the Early-stage of the Spirit Vessel Realm to the Middle-stage of the Spirit Vessel Realm.

After that, he did not continue to break through, but spent all of his time to polish his foundation and consolidate his cultivation.

...

In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.

Outside the Desolate Ridge barrier.

Despite being reminded by Song Shenxue, Shao Jianbo did not take anyone back to the gate of the Seraphic Sword Sect, but he still took someone to guard with him, intending to wait until the mission was truly over.

Obviously, seven days had passed, but no one came out of the barrier, which made Shao Jianbo and the others stare at each other.

"It seems that Senior Sister Song's judgment is correct."

"According to her statement, the outer disciples were wiped out on the first day, so is it possible that the Beast of Death appeared this year?"

"The possibility is very high; it doesn't make sense to all die so quickly otherwise."

" The sect should send someone to investigate afterward."

"Anyway, it's none of our business, the task is complete, we can go back."

Several disciples of the Seraphic Sword Sect said, packing up their things one after another, preparing to leave.

However, the next moment, the barrier of Desolate Ridge fluctuated, and a figure flew out from the barrier and landed on the ground. It was Mo Xiu.

"You... you are that Wu Jue!"

Shao Jianbo looked at Mo Xiu and was very surprised, "You are actually not dead!"

Mo Xiu: "Is it strange that I'm not dead?"

"Strange! Very strange!" Shao Jianbo replied straightforwardly.

After speaking, he quickly said to the disciple of the Seraphic Sword Sect next to him, "Quick! Go and notify Elder Mu, no, go and notify Senior Sister Song!"

That disciple then left without saying a word.

In fact, there was no need to notify at all, just a short while, Song Shenxue had come outside the barrier of Desolate Ridge.

"Senior Sister Song."

The disciples of the Seraphic Sword Sect bowed their heads and saluted quickly.

Mo Xiu didn't have that idea. Not only did he look directly at Song Shenxue, he also inspected this girl carefully.

Feeling Mo Xiu's scrutiny gaze, Song Shenxue frowned slightly, and quickly asked, "How did you survive?"

"It's weird for me to be alive?" Mo Xiu asked back.

Song Shenxue: "Six days ago, I went into Desolate Ridge once, and there was only a pile of monsters left in it. There were no other figures. How did you escape my Divine Consciousness detection?"

Mo Xiu didn't know that Song Shenxue had entered the Desolate Ridge. After all, he had been in that dim light. That dim light could isolate the Divine Consciousness inside and outside, therefore, the two parties couldn't possibly find each other at all. 

Although he didn't know, he was not surprised. He just said, "Your Divine Consciousness should not be weak, but there is a place that your Divine Consciousness can't detect."

"What you mean is..." Song Shenxue immediately realized something, and said in surprise, "Impossible! That is the site of the Beast of Death. Anyone who enters it will be stared at by the Beast of Death. Then you will either die or go crazy."

Mo Xiu shook his head slightly, "That was before, now there is no Beast of Death."

Song Shenxue was stunned for a moment before she took out the special token that she used before. In the blink of an eye, she entered the barrier and disappeared.

Mo Xiu looked at the place where Song Shenxue had stood before, thinking slightly.

Rumor had it that even the elder of the Seraphic Sword Sect would be in danger of going crazy or dying when he saw the Beast of Death. Song Shenxue ran to the place where the Nightmare Demon Hound was before just to confirm his words. Wasn't she afraid of bumping into the Nightmare Demon Hound?

Did she believe in his words and not worry that he was lying? Or, what means did Song Shenxue have to avoid falling into the nightmare created by the Nightmare Demon Hound using its supernatural power?

In addition, he felt something was wrong with Song Shenxue, which was different from the feeling given to him by anyone in the Profound Sky Continent.

It wasn't because of Song Shenxue's unparalleled face, but because of Song Shenxue's special temperament, so special that even he felt very wrong.

In any case, this Song Shenxue must be paid attention to, and Song Shenxue must not be allowed to ruin his good deeds at a critical moment.

In just a short time, Song Shenxue walked out of the barrier.

"What about the Beast of Death? Why did it disappear suddenly?" she asked.

Asking this, it was obvious that she had already gone around where the Nightmare Demon Hound had been before.

Mo Xiu pondered briefly, and replied solemnly, "I have already taken it over."

"It is subdued by you? You really dare to say it," Shao Jianbo, who listened to the conversation between the two, couldn't help sneering.

The other disciples of the Seraphic Sword Sect also looked at Mo Xiu with weird expressions, obviously not believing what Mo Xiu said.

What Mo Xiu wanted was such an effect, so he didn't justify, but was silent.

Song Shenxue didn't ridicule, and asked, "Since you said it is subdued, where did you hide it? Call it out and show it to me."

"No way."

Mo Xiu shook his head slightly, "If I call it out, all of you will die."

"Boasting!"

Shao Jianbo's face was full of disdain, "Boy, the cowhide is about to be blown to the sky by you. If that Beast of Death is so easy to be subdued by you, then those of us with a cultivation base higher than you can easily deal with it if we want to. And you said all of us will die if you take it out? What a big joke, I really want to see the so-called Beast of Death and see how it makes me die."

Mo Xiu glanced at Shao Jianbo without getting angry. He changed the subject and said, "According to the rules of the Seraphic Sword Sect, I have survived in the Desolate Ridge for seven days and become the only person who walked out of the Desolate Ridge. Can I join the Seraphic Sword Sect now?"

According to the rules, this was indeed the case, but now that Song Shenxue was present, it was impossible for Shao Jianbo to make a decision, so he was silent and did not answer.

Song Shenxue didn't make Shao Jianbo embarrassed, "You can join the Seraphic Sword Sect, but I still have something to ask you."

Mo Xiu was noncommittal.

Song Shenxue asked, "What exactly happened in Desolate Ridge? Why are you still alive when everyone else died?"

"..."

Mo Xiu remained silent and did not answer.

Song Shenxue asked again, "Did you kill the disciples of the Seraphic Sword Sect after you entered Desolate Ridge? You and their identities are not the same. In order to ensure their authority, they will definitely join forces to deal with you first. It stands to reason that it's impossible for you to know anything."

Mo Xiu remained silent.

Song Shenxue frowned, and finally questioned, "What is your purpose for joining the Seraphic Sword Sect with all your heart?"

Mo Xiu still did not answer.

Seeing that Mo Xiu was unwilling to answer and the expression on his face did not change at all from beginning to end, Song Shenxue was very helpless and had to give up questioning Mo Xiu.

After being silent for a while, she said again, "In fact, I was the one who made you weed out before. Do you know why?"

Mo Xiu had already captured the Divine Consciousness Sound Transmission of the Seraphic Sword Sect Master with his Divine Consciousness, knowing that it was not Song Shenxue who wanted to eliminate him.

Although he didn't know why Song Shenxue wanted to take the initiative, he didn't break this lie either, and asked in cooperation, "Why?"

Song Shenxue: "Your murderous aura is too heavy. You should have killed a lot of people. Even if you pass the selection, you will not be recognized by the Sword Spirit, and you will not be able to get your sword from the Sword Valley. Our Seraphic Sword Sect is a sect majoring in 'sword', but you don't even have a suitable sword, even if you join the Seraphic Sword Sect temporarily, you will not be able to officially become a disciple of the Seraphic Sword Sect."

Mo Xiu knew something about "Sword Spirit" and "Sword Valley".

After joining the Seraphic Sword Sect, he must use the sword of the Seraphic Sword Sect, and the sword of the Seraphic Sword Sect was not made by a certain refiner of the Seraphic Sword Sect, but obtained from Sword Valley.

Even the people of the Seraphic Sword Sect didn't know much about Sword Valley. They only knew that it was very mysterious. It was the holy land of the Seraphic Sword Sect where a Sword Spirit resided in. Whenever a new disciple went to Sword Valley to choose a sword, he must be recognized by the Sword Spirit, and the Sword Spirit would give that person a suitable sword.

As for how the sword of Sword Valley was obtained, no one knew.

Mo Xiu's Divine Consciousness could probably envelop the entire Seraphic Sword Sect, but there were a few places that could not be spied by his Divine Consciousness, one of which was Sword Valley.

Being unable to snoop was one thing, Mo Xiu didn't think he could not get the approval of the Sword Spirit.

But if he really could not get its approval, so what about it?

He, Mo Xiu, didn't need anyone's approval. If that Sword Spirit dared not to give him a sword, he would ask for it forcibly. He didn't believe that he couldn't even control a small Sword Spirit!

Song Shenxue didn't know Mo Xiu's inner thoughts. After explaining, she asked, "I've already spoken to this point, do you still want to join the Seraphic Sword Sect?"

"Yeah," Mo Xiu nodded lightly.

Song Shenxue: "If you regret it now, it is still not too late to leave the Seraphic Sword Sect. Once you really join the Seraphic Sword Sect, you must go to the Sword Valley to choose a sword. If you can't get the Sword Spirit's approval, you won't be able to get the sword gifted by the Sword Spirit. Hence, our Seraphic Sword Sect will not admit to having you as a disciple. At that time, your cultivation will be abolished and you will be expelled from the sect, so I hope you can think carefully."

"There is nothing to consider," Mo Xiu was very determined.

Song Shenxue stared at Mo Xiu for a while, and finally did not persuade him, "In this case, I will take you to Sword Valley tomorrow to choose a sword."
