第两千一百七十五章 半魔

...

The wind howled fiercely. The originally clear sky suddenly turned gloomy without any warning.

Though it wasn't pitch black, the dark clouds still made people feel压抑.

Then, spatial ripples surged abruptly.

A hundred feet away, space twisted and a one-meter wide spatial rift appeared.

This was just the beginning!

Crack...

The sound of tearing echoed. The gap instantly expanded.

Soon, an evil ghost with a green face and sharp teeth appeared in Lin Xuan's sight. It radiated malevolence and its cultivation level was roughly at the Dao玄 stage.

"Good job, good job!"

Lin Xuan muttered to himself as he heard his voice. He had summoned such a fierce ghost on his first try; he was already satisfied.

After three months of hard work, it wasn't in vain. He had mastered this exorcism technique.

With the trial over, Lin Xuan didn’t waste any time. His body emitted a bluish light as he flew towards the Bamboo Mountain Snowfield.

Lin Xuan didn’t use his full speed but the speed was still astonishing. In just a few minutes, he turned around as if sensing something.

His eyes narrowed as he looked into the distance.

There was nothing unusual, which wasn't strange considering Lin Xuan's divine sense could cover much farther than his vision.

"Really coincidental. Why would that girl be pursued?"

Lin Xuan muttered to himself. Then, he clapped his hands and a layer of spiritual light appeared on his body before quickly fading away, making him seem almost invisible.

He then attached an invisibility talisman to his body, and his figure gradually blended into the void.

After doing all this, Lin Xuan hung in mid-air silently for what seemed like a few minutes.

Suddenly, a red glow enveloped everything. A pinkish-red lightning bolt streaked through the air, flying frantically towards him.

Behind it, two dark and white magical energies chased relentlessly.

Though the pinkish-red lightning was swift, it appeared somewhat dimmed. If its owner wasn't severely injured, it must have been due to excessive energy consumption. Despite this, it still flew so fast because of some secret technique that boosted its potential.

Lin Xuan thought as he saw the pinkish-red bolt and the two dark and white magical energies clash.

"贱婢, really don’t know when to die. Even now, you dare to escape. If you submit, you can avoid much suffering. Otherwise..."

A thunderous roar echoed in Lin Xuan's ears. A bird-like streak of black energy emerged from the dark magical energy and transformed into a ferocious black dragon, about eight or seven meters long, lunging at its opponent.

The pinkish-red lightning halted as it dimmed, revealing a graceful young woman with clear features—Ye Family’s girl who possessed ethereal qi.

She waved her hand, and a greenish-blue lightning bolt shot out. It exploded loudly, clashing with the black dragon.

Both were mid-Dao玄 cultivators, making it difficult to determine the outcome in a short time. However, there was another pursuer.

The gray-white magical energy dispersed, revealing a woman dressed provocatively, around twenty-five or six years old, with good looks.

However, Lin Xuan noticed strange patterns on her face, causing his pupils to contract slightly as he felt they were familiar.

Was it a魔纹?

Only the demons had such markings.

This woman wasn’t a human cultivator but an ancient demon?

Lin Xuan’s expression turned surprised. This was the Nixia Realm, where even old monsters with渡劫期 power were present. Could there be ancient demons daring to provoke them?

His gaze shifted to her companion—a scholar-like cultivator in his thirties.

Though he seemed unremarkable, Lin Xuan’s keen eyes detected a single-inch-long horn hidden in his hair.

Indeed, not a human cultivator, but it wasn’t an ancient demon either. Their emitted magical energy was clearly impure compared to true ancient demons.

This couldn’t be due to disguise; two mid-元婴 cultivators wouldn’t fool him.

Lin Xuan had confidence in this.

His eyes flashed with doubt, but he quickly deduced their identities.

Half-demons!

Or more simply put, descendants of humans and ancient demons.

The Three Realms War would start every few tens of thousands of years.

From the ancient times, the spiritual realm and the upper魔界 never ceased to clash. Sometimes, it was the spiritual realm that invaded the ancient demon realm, calling it a "spiritual tribulation." Other times, the ancient demons attacked the spiritual realm, known as the "Six Tribulations."

Regardless, both sides would kill each other mercilessly.

Countless cultivators were killed on both sides!

The scale of this war was unimaginable to those who hadn’t experienced it firsthand. However, sometimes, love stories between ancient demons and humans emerged.

One of the most famous was Tian Mo!

Tian Mo’s name alone sounded formidable. He was one of the nine true demon primordial ancestors, with power reaching the heavens. During the last war between the spiritual realm and the demon realm, he even fought against a Loose Immortal but managed to escape. Countless powerful cultivators fell at his hands...

Despite being such an intimidating figure, Tian Mo couldn’t resist love. When leading his army into the spiritual realm, he coincidentally met a beautiful woman from that realm and fell in love, unable to extricate himself. He betrayed his demon kin for her, joining the spiritual realm.

Without his inside help, the previous war might not have been won against those ancient demons, as their power was formidable. Even mid-元婴 cultivators like Tian Mo could fall in love with human cultivators during such wars, making half-demons common.

These half-demons, though their bloodline wasn’t pure, still had enhanced magical abilities.

Half-demons were only mentioned in ancient texts before, but this time, Lin Xuan had the chance to witness them firsthand. It was a worthwhile journey.

His thoughts raced, but he didn’t have time for such reflections. In just a short while, Ye Ying faced numerous dangers. His prediction was correct; she indeed sustained significant injuries, with blood still on her lips, and was now under two enemies' attacks.

Half-demons naturally outmatched ordinary cultivators of the same level, so their advantage was even more pronounced.
