"This time, the people attacking Xu Wan were three disciples of the Xuanyuan Dharma King: the second eldest, the Devil Venerable, the third eldest, Blood Rock Hermit, and the fourth eldest, Poison Hand Mo Shen."

"Any one of these three alone in a fair duel could defeat Xu Wan, not killing him only because he was quick to flee."

"This time, the three brothers acted together because they coveted the Heavenly Demon Immortal Slaying Sword that Xu Wan was refining. They also planned to exterminate Xu Wan and then go to the Central Altar to kill Shi Feiyang in revenge for their eldest brother, the Five Lascivious Venerable Liu Du!"

"However, they also dreaded the pervasive blood mist and the dense Heavenly Demons, not daring to barge in recklessly."

"The three concealed their true bodies afar, only sending their Primordial Spirits into the blood mist to kill Xu Wan."

"Years ago, Shi Feiyang and Ni Fangxian had killed the Five Lascivious Venerable Liu Du. While fleeing in an embarrassing state, Gu Ying encountered the ghost girl Qiaoqiao and wanted to make her his Ghost Concubine. Qiaoqiao refused and even brought up Xu Wan to scare Gu Ying."

"Gu Ying was not frightened by Xu Wan; having just lost a battle, filled with rage, he directly made a move to capture Qiaoqiao and bring her back to his 'Ghost Country.'"

"Qiaoqiao resisted desperately. After all, she was nearly a master of the 'Taiyin Ghost Seal,' preventing Gu Ying from capturing her easily, though he managed to trap her with a spell."

"Unable to escape, Qiaoqiao resorted to using the most shameful Great Soul Seduction Technique, the Soul Hooking."

"She truly was beautiful. As a female ghost, her root bone qualifications were also exemplary. Gu Ying fell in love at the moment, immediately decided to elevate her status to Noble Princess Consort, and used illusions to show her his Ghost Country, depicting the grand scale of the big and small ghosts there, more like a kingdom of the Underworld than what Xu Wan had in Beimang Mountain."

"Enchanted by the spell backlash, her feelings blossomed, finding him young and handsome with high mana, and having a master like Xuanyuan the elder to rely on, she agreed."

"These two became entangled, and this time before Gu Ying arrived, he brought along Qiaoqiao, using her to thoroughly disillusion Xu Wan during the Demon Tribulation."

"When Xu Wan confirmed that Qiaoqiao truly betrayed him, he indeed lost his composure. Blood Rock Hermit ambushed him from behind, forcibly seizing his Avici Pearl. Xu Wan hurriedly cast a spell to struggle; meanwhile, Poison Hand Mo Shen secretly unsheathed the Seven Evil Demon Saber from the right side!"

"Xu Wan, unable to fend off attacks from multiple sides, sent out a Nili Pearl flying rapidly around him, blocking Poison Hand Mo Shen's strike."

"At that moment, Qiaoqiao staggered backwards and vanished into the red mist. The Heavenly Demon Immortal Slaying Sword, soaked with fresh blood, suddenly leaped upward. Xu Wan frantically bit his tongue, spraying a mixture of Essence Blood True Qi."

"The Demon Sword, syncing with his intentions; Xu Wan mentally called out desperately. The sword hovered in midair, hesitating, its blade pointing now to the right, now back at him."

"Suddenly, the incarnation of Devil Venerable materialized beside the sword, holding Chen Hui's severed head in his left hand and threading it onto the blade, while his right palm contained a Spirit Talisman, firmly gripping the sword handle."

"Xu Wan, both anxious and furious, struck out with the Green Blood Soul Extinguishing Shuttle, transforming into over a hundred rays of Green Flame radiance shooting towards Gu Ying."

"Gu Ying's incarnation, split from his Primordial Spirit and not his physical body, was also very wary of this Demon Sword. Since the Demon Tribulation began, the Heavenly Demons have been seducing the sword spirit to kill Xu Wan, ascend, and join the Heavenly Demons in the Demon Realm."

"Gu Ying seized the opportunity to also tempt the sword spirit, using Chen Hui as sacrifice, coaxing the Demon Sword to follow him."

"The sword spirit of this sword, however, inhabited by the Primordial Spirit of the Han Ling Emperor from the Eastern Han period, who was decadent and corrupt, recognized the Ten Eunuchs as his fathers and mothers, imposed harsh taxes, sold official ranks, ultimately triggering the widespread Yellow Turban Rebellion that shook the very foundation of the Great Han."

"Even Zhuge Liang's memorial conscripted the lament of Liu Bei over the lamentable state under Huan and Ling; 'Ling' referring to this very Han Ling Emperor."

"After his death, he was buried in Beimang Mountain. Xu Wan wanted to refine the sword; to infuse the Demon Sword, the sword spirit needed 'demon nature' and power. Emperors from the Wei and Jin dynasties wouldn't suffice, nor would ministers, hence he settled on this Han Ling Emperor."

"During his life, Emperor Han Ling indulged in pleasures, constructed swimming pools and partied primitively with palace maids inside, lamenting his lack of mana as a mere mortal, dying at just 34. Now, refined by Xu Wan into a demon through Soul Refinement, fulfilling his desires..."

"Yet, during the Soul Refinement process, he also endured hellish torments, harboring deep resentment towards Xu Wan, albeit constrained by magical prohibitions from rebelling. Subjected to countless Devil Thoughts from Heavenly Demons flooding his mind, hallucinating his days as the Emperor of Great Han, surrounded by clothing-less palace maids, circling him and feeding him mouth-to-mouth, displaying an array of covert expressions... Beyond these, his sentries murdered at his command, the Emperor's fury meant heads rolled, and rivers of blood flowed..."

"Interrupted by Gu Ying surfing this delightful state, suddenly, all happiness vanished, he went mad. Gu Ying offered fresh blood as a sacrifice."

"Having never appreciated flesh and blood so much in his life, it became irresistible to him, more delicious than bathing in fragrant soups with beauties in the pools..."

"Influenced by the Heavenly Demon, Xu Wan faced a united attack by Poison Hand Mo Shen, falling into decline. Gu Ying then came to tempt him, overcame the magical restrictions Xu Wan imposed on him, and he in anger turned his head, transforming into a beam of blood light, aiming straight for Xu Wan's chest!"

"Xu Wan hastily used the Nili Pearl to block, shattered by the Demon Sword with one strike!"

"As the Immortal Slaying Sword was about to plunge into Xu Wan's chest, a prism of five-colored light suddenly shot diagonally, the work of Shi Feiyang dispatching Suiren's Drill to assist."

"Shi Feiyang had realized, Xu Wan's sword could not be properly refined. If continued, Xu Wan would undoubtedly die, and in the end, the sword would be captured by Gu Ying and his ilk. Thus, he unleashed Suiren's Drill intending to destroy the sword."
