Chapter 689: The Skyfiend Arrives

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The moment Shu Yi finished her sentence, the demonic Qi in the surroundings surged. It thickened by several times, causing everything to become pitch-black.

This is no good – the demonic Qi is entering the other sects!
One of the Nascent Soul elders exclaimed upon seeing the demonic Qi spread. He was getting increasingly anxious.
Everybody’s expression changed. Indeed, there seemed to be more and more demonic Qi around them, threatening to flow out of Nameless Mountain and into the other mountains. The fact that they could remain where they were was all thanks to Lonemoon’s array. But if the demonic Qi were to spread to the other mountains, the sect’s disciples might just…

Supremacy… Lonemoon?
Yu Luan turned to gaze at Lonemoon pleadingly.



Don’t set up any arrays!
Lonemoon instructed. He flew up into the air and used both his hands to conjure a seal. A white array appeared all around Nameless Mountain, trapping the demonic Qi within it. .
It was then that everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Shu Yi, however, laughed mirthlessly.
Hmph, unnecessary effort!
She clearly did not think anything of the barrier Lonemoon set up. Instead, she spoke to the system in her head.

001, quick, recover the Skyfiend immediately!

[Host, do you really want to complete that array?


Nonsense!
Shu Yi tutted.
If you don’t summon the demons, how are we going to kill Zuo Shuming and everyone else in Gui Yi Sect? Didn’t I join the Skyfiend Sect just to obtain this weapon?

[But… It’s against the rules to access the demonic realm. We are going to be discovered by the Heavenly Dao in this plane!]

Don’t you have a way to avoid the Heavenly Dao’s detection temporarily?
She stubbornly asked.
Let’s hide from it for now. By the time we are detected, we’ll be out of this plane.

[Host, this function will only last for a period of time, and it will clear out all of your points.]

Then so be it!
Shu Yi said through gritted teeth. She rushed the system,
No matter what, I have to kill all of them today!

[Ding! Recovery complete.]


Finally, Shu Yi retrieved something from in her robe and threw i into the sky. A huge array appeared all of a sudden. It glowed a suspicious red, as if something was trying to break out of the array from within.

What… What is that!
Yu Luan’s eyes widened in shock. That was one array that he had never seen before. It carried with it a certain evil aura that made them extremely uncomfortable. His blood turned cold in his veins.
Lonemoon took a closer look at the array and shock flickered across his face. Was this not the Skyfiend Array?! Why would someone in the lower realm have an array like that? Wasn’t it true that only Skyfiends were able to set up this type of array?
No! On further inspection, he realised that there seemed to be something more inside of the array. It was no ordinary Skyfiend Array.

Do you really think you can lock up my demonic Qi? It’s of no use!
Shu Yi addressed the crowd with murderous intent in her eyes. She let out a chilling laugh and said,
It’s not just me that you’ll have to deal with!


What do you mean by that?
Yu Luan stiffened. He was obviously extremely fearful of the array in the sky.
Shu Yi laughed once again.
Do you know where the Skyfiend Sect got its name? It nurtured a demon that really ascended to become a Skyfiend. This array is the treasure that the Skyfiend Sect lost a long time ago. It allows one to access the demonic realm directly to summon the ancient demons.


What!
Everybody’s faces drained of all colour. Was Shu Yi crazy? She wanted to summon ancient demons? This would ruin the entire mortal realm!
But Shu Yi laughed even louder. She emphasised each word she said,
Not one of you will be able to get away this time!

The moment she finished speaking, the array in the sky turned an eye-piercing red. Countless talismans floated up into the sky. They threatened to come alive at any moment. Indeed, a moment later, there was a loud crash. Above the red array, a huge black stone gate appeared. The darkness within it was so deep that it seemed to swallow all the red light.



This… This is…
Zuo Shuming looked on, eyes widened in disbelief. He saw the huge gate in the air and felt a chill run down his spine. All his meridians turned to ice and even his cultivation level threatened to deteriorate. His Golden Core showed signs of falling apart.

What are you standing there for!
Lonemoon reached out and pulled Zuo Shuming, throwing him into the array. With the other hand, he created a few more layers of protective arrays to prevent the suppressive force from getting to the people within.

Supremacy Lonemoon, what exactly is…
Yu Luan was in shock.
Lonemoon lowered his gaze and answered,
The demonic gate.
But what was it doing here?
There was no time for the group to even react before they heard a loud creak as the demonic gates opened. At the same time, the demonic Qi around Shu Yi seemed to multiply. The suppressive force that filled the air became more formidable. It seemed to be crushing the mountain.

So many years have passed – people are still able to summon Wu Lin?
A chilling male voice was heard. A human figure appeared in the demonic gates. He was wearing a long black robe and was engulfed in demonic Qi. He smelled faintly of blood.
All of their hearts were in their throats. Suddenly, they understood that this man in front of them was a real demon.
Even Lonemoon fornwed. She could really summon a Skyfiend.
The Skyfiend raised his hand. The weapon that Shu Yi had thrown up flew into his hand at once. He looked down as if to check something and said,
This really is the Skyfiend seal that I left behind all those years ago. I never thought that a mere lower realm cultivator would be able to summon the person who left this seal.

He looked comforted, but his gaze remained icy. He looked further down and asked,
Who is the one who recovered this Skyfiend seal? I would like to grant her one thing.




It was me!
Shu Yi looked elated. Indeed, the Skyfiend Sect was just like the ancient texts said. This array really could summon the Skyfiend back to the lower realm. The fact that he agreed to grant her one request was an added surprise. Without thinking further, she said,
Supremacy, I am the one who recovered this array. Please help me to wipe out Gui Yi Sect.


Oh?
The Skyfiend turned to face Shu Yi. In a flash, he stepped out of the gates and walked toward her. With each step he took, the demonic Qi around him seemed to intensify. Shu Yi’s demonic Qi was forced to retreat. It was like her demonic Qi was feeling threatened. The Skyfiend looked at her more and more intently as he asked,
You want me to kill off these mortals?


That’s right!
Shu Yi nodded. Slowly, the figure that had been engulfed in demonic Qi revealed itself.
The Skyfiend smiled, his eyes suddenly filled with murderous intent.
Alright then! I will do as you-
He stopped mid-sentence. All the evil disappeared from his eyes. In its place was shock and a bit of fear. He looked in the direction of Shu Yi, but he began to stutter.
As you… y-y-you… y-y-you…
For a long time, he did not manage to complete his sentence. Instead, his body began to tremble.

Supremacy?
Shu Yi paused.
The next moment, the Skyfiend’s entire body jumped, like he had just been jolted awake. Both his legs could not hold his weight any longer. Without any hesitation, he got to his knees and kowtowed toward Shen Ying, who was still being held by Shu Yi. He let out several whines as he plastered himself to the ground. It was an amazing display of prostrating oneself in admiration.

Little Demon greets the Exalted… E-E-Exalted Goddess!

Shu Yi:
…

Shen Ying:
…

Everyone:
…



What the hell? !
