Chapter 492: The Guardian of the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords! “Squeak…” A miserable cry echoed as the massive body of the flying beast suddenly plummeted backward like a bird with a broken wing, crashing heavily onto a pile of boulders several meters away. The impact shattered the rocks, turning them into fragments and sending a cloud of dust into the air. “Roar!” A demon beast silently emerged nearby, small in stature, standing only about half a zhang high. It resembled a humanoid creature with a wolf-like and simian-like head. Its body was covered in black scale armor, as if forged from dark iron, glowing faintly with a profound light. The arrival of this demon beast brought with it an aura that seemed as imposing as towering mountains. Roaring like thunder, it charged forward, and its humanoid-like claws, resembling palm-shaped hands, lunged at Su Yi. Su Yi’s eyes narrowed as he observed the demon beast. Its cultivation was not insignificant, reaching the powerful fifth stage of the Demonic Spirit Realm. It was undeniably formidable. “Despicable creature!” Su Yi, instead of advancing, stepped back and unleashed another punch—simple and direct. The punch collided with the large claw, resisting the impact head-on. “Bang!” “Roar…” With a muffled thud, followed by a howl of pain, the demon beast spewed blood from its mouth. Its body was violently shaken and sent flying, blood dripping from its sharp claws. It crashed to the ground, shattering boulders into rubble. “Roarrrr…” Immediately, a chorus of roars erupted from all directions, the sound of numerous demon beasts resonating through the air. “Gurgling…” Above, under the dim light of dawn, numerous fierce birds soared through the sky, filling the space in a dense, almost suffocating manner. “Oh no, there are countless demon beasts!” Situ Muyang had already been roused and quickly leaped to Su Yi’s side. “Be cautious, we’ve got trouble on our hands!” Su Yi’s gaze darkened as he sensed the encroaching demon beasts from every direction, causing the mountains and forests to tremble and the ground to quake. “Roarrrr!” Massive rocks surged from all directions, and pairs of blood-red, menacing eyes flickered with a malicious glow as deafening roars filled the air. In the sky above, the ferocious bird flapped its wings, swooping down and circling in the air, its aura sharp and fierce. A vast army of demon beasts had formed, creating an unbreakable barrier and preventing any escape. Among them, many emitted powerful and intense energy fluctuations. Sharp stone fragments flew through the air, clouds of dust rising, as waves of force swept across the area like a violent storm. A colossal wolf raised its head and howled, its body glowing snow-white, releasing an aura that emanated from the pinnacle of the Demonic True Realm. A ferocious bird, only a few zhang in size, with feathers as sharp as a blade and claws honed to a deadly point, also radiated the power of the Demonic True Realm. Numerous other fierce birds flitted around the area. On the ground and in the lower airspace, many more Demonic Spirit Realm beasts prowled, each radiating fierce energy and glowing with terrifying intent. “How could there be so many demon beasts? This is going to be a huge problem!” Situ Muyang’s face grew serious as he sensed the enormous pressure coming from the vast army of demon beasts, realizing the situation had escalated to a level far beyond their expectations. “Gruu…” The bird, hovering above, had feathers sharp enough to cut through steel, its eyes flashing with a cold, murderous light. As it flapped its wings, a sharp ringing sound filled the air, and rays of light shot toward Su Yi and Situ Muyang, carrying the overwhelming aura of the Demonic True Realm. “Roar!” The snow-white giant wolf, unwilling to be outdone, unleashed a terrifying momentum that shook the air around it, charging toward Su Yi and Situ Muyang with explosive force. “Let’s go all out, seize the moment!” Situ Muyang shouted, quickly activating his Wind Battle Armor, which enveloped him in a protective layer, ready to deflect the incoming attack. Su Yi’s expression darkened. Without hesitation, he activated the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique. An aura of destructive majesty erupted instantly. He unsheathed the large sword from his back, its brilliance dazzling, and unleashed the third sword of the Three Sabres of the Raging Dragon—the Roaring Dragon Emperor Slash. A beam of sword light shot forward, trailing a streak of crimson thunder, as a fiery red aura surged through the air, overwhelming everything in its path. “Roar…” Within the radiance of the sword, a faint crimson dragon shadow seemed to manifest, causing the ground around them to crack as boulders turned to dust. The shockwave that followed was terrifying. In that moment, the snow-white giant wolf, for reasons unknown, seemed to sense a fearsome presence. Its eyes filled with terror as its aura faltered. “Swoosh…” The sword light collided with the snow-white giant wolf, and the two forces clashed with a thunderous impact. Su Yi staggered back, while the wolf was sent reeling, bloodstains appearing on its claws, and a look of dismay in its eyes. “Thud, thud!” Su Yi continued to retreat, blood and qi surging within him, the taste of blood rising in his throat. He swallowed a mouthful of blood and grew more solemn. The Demonic True Realm wolf was strong—far stronger than he had anticipated. “Sssshh…” Meanwhile, Situ Muyang and the fierce bird collided with a blast of wind that swept in all directions. “Pfft…” Situ Muyang was knocked to the ground, sliding backward as blood poured from his mouth. Su Yi slammed his foot into the ground, the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique surging through him, his aura radiating with destruction and majesty. “Roarrrr…” At that moment, the ground and the sky above were filled with the deafening roars of demon beasts, shaking the heavens and causing the earth to tremble beneath their feet. The two most powerful snow-white wolves, along with the ferocious bird, hesitated, fear flashing in their eyes as they watched Su Yi closely, unwilling to approach. “Crash…” At that instant, a radiant light descended from above, a mysterious aura spreading outward. This aura seemed to resist Su Yi’s Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique to some extent, relieving the pressure on the surrounding demon beasts. Su Yi immediately noticed the change, his gaze fixed on the new presence. From above, a radiant glow illuminated the surroundings, and descending slowly, a graceful white deer appeared. It stood at half Su Yi’s height, its elegant form shimmering with an ethereal light. “What an intriguing human,” the deer said, its voice crisp and clear, proud and spirited, its eyes glowing with iridescent brilliance. “You appear human, yet the aura you emanate is intertwined with that of the demon race!” “Demonic Void Realm!” Su Yi and Situ Muyang both felt a tremor in their hearts as they heard the deer speak. This was a demon beast of the Demonic Void Realm—a level none of them had expected to encounter. Su Yi’s expression grew solemn. The aura of his Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique seemed powerless against the presence of a Demonic Void Realm demon. Within the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords, there existed a protector of such immense power. “I see, this must be the protector of the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords,” Situ Muyang whispered beside Su Yi. “Does the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords have a protector?” Su Yi narrowed his eyes. He had never heard of this before. A protector of the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords—especially one at the Demonic Void Realm level—was something he hadn’t been told about. “I have heard that, without the presence of cultivators from the Divine Sword School, the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords is vulnerable. However, it is an important place for the school. During the Grand Swordsmanship Competition, their direct disciples enter. To prevent major incidents, the cultivators of the Divine Sword School subdued the demon beasts within the Battlefield, turning them into protectors. As long as nothing significant happens, these protectors do not intervene with the events inside the Battlefield.” Situ Muyang informed Su Yi, sharing this information that he had come across unexpectedly.
