I Slay Gods and Demons in the Deceit Night -
Chapter 409 - 276: One Slash Suppresses Thirty Thousand People!
Chapter 409: Chapter 276: One Slash Suppresses Thirty Thousand People!
Mr. Lu had once said, Lin Yan was a blessed person.
Because he did not need to endure.
For the Human Clan, the strong ones in the Three Gods Valley had endured for a long time.
Some with dominant tempers could not bear the sacrificial rituals of Three Gods Valley, yet they lacked the power to kill the three Great Divine Venerables or handle the aftermath.
Only a very few among the Human Clan’s upper echelon had the ability to deal with the three Great Divine Venerables, but ultimately they considered the bigger picture.
Although Three Gods Valley sacrificed hundreds of people each year, tens of thousands still lived there in peace.
Acting against the three Great Divine Venerables, the upper echelons of the Human Clan would also face casualties... For the strong ones of the Human Clan in the world, often when they were wounded, they would lose control and then perish.
And in Qifeng Prefecture, there was no new territory or resources to sustain these more than thirty thousand people.
More importantly, these thirty thousand plus people, having undergone a tradition handed down by ancestors and a baptism of over a hundred years, had already come to regard the three Great Divine Venerables as integral to their very existence, more significant than their biological parents.
"When I was young, I thought of gathering the upper echelons of Qifeng Prefecture and using the power of the Holy Land to suppress the Three Gods Valley,"
"Li Shen Sect also considered asking the Holy Land for help a few years ago to eradicate the Three Gods Valley,"
Mr. Lu laughed, saying, "But in the end, we could only choose to endure..."
He looked at Lin Yan and remarked, "You are fortunate, not having to endure, not having to suffer, not feeling oppressed, and being able to draw your sword and unleash your killing intent on the very first day you arrived in Three Gods Valley..."
The Human Clan struggled to survive in the sinister night... they barely survived in Pure Land, struggling in an era that worshipped Evil Spirits and Demons, and eventually built cities near the Old God.
Even today, even High Willow City, facing the approach of powerful Evil and Demons from all directions, still needed to use a great deal of incense to send them all away!
This was the situation of the Human Clan!
They seemed powerful, seemingly high above all, appearing fearless against the sinister night, seeming to resist the Evil, but ultimately they were still struggling for survival.
Yet in this era, they were already much stronger than in earlier times!
"In the bygone era before that, the era when the Worshiping Evil Method and Demon Transformation Technique were born..."
Mr. Lu exclaimed, "In the era before the Human Clan built cities, the most common large survival sites were not large Pure Lands but places like Three Gods Valley!"
"Worshipping Evil as Divine Spirits, offering incense, sacrificing members of the Human Clan to seek more protection and to propagate their lineage..."
"Enduring, humiliation, severing arms to survive, bowing and scraping... those were the most common postures of the Human Clan since the arrival of the sinister night."
"I know given your temperament, you would inevitably have the intent to kill the three Great Divine Venerables."
He looked at Lin Yan and calmly stated, "I know, with endurance comes humiliation and despair, which is a tremendous blow to one’s state of mind!"
"You have the Human Clan in your heart, perhaps you will choose to consider the bigger picture, but I know, your path of cultivation is unstoppable, full of momentum."
"Perhaps you will face setbacks in the future, but today I can spare you from frustration!"
"So today, whether you choose to consider the bigger picture and endure, or draw your sword to affirm your convictions, I am prepared either way,"
After saying this, he then saw a beam of light approaching from afar.
Lin Yan reached out to catch it, and found it was a piece of paper.
There were over a hundred names on the paper.
"The loyalty of these hundred plus people to the three Great Divine Venerables is unshakable,"
Mr. Lu said this, yet pointed to the other side of the great river.
Lin Yan sheathed his sword and carried the Divine Bow on his back.
He crossed the great river, stepping on the reconverging waters.
The river surged, yet he walked as if on flat ground, arriving at the other bank.
Previously, when facing Lin Yan, the numerous people of the Three Gods Valley who cried out for battle were now silent.
All eyes were on the young man, filled with nothing but extreme fear!
Lin Yan’s gaze swept over, and tens of thousands of people from the Human Clan did not dare meet his eyes.
"The three Great Divine Venerables, seemingly protectors, are actually captors, treating you like cattle,"
"They are not gods, but greater Demons in the sinister night, using your incense and the sacrificed Human Clan as their divine facade."
"So I killed them to choose a new god for you!"
As his voice fell, the leader of the Refining Essence Realm suddenly held his bow and shot an arrow.
With a thud!
The arrow neared and shattered instantly!
"Why should Three Gods Valley need you to meddle in our affairs?"
The leader of the Refining Essence Realm, eyes bulging with rage, shouted, "The three Great Divine Venerables have protected us, from our ancestors, for over a hundred years, with boundless divine grace. You dare to insult the Venerates, treating the supreme deities of Three Gods Valley as Demons..."
Before he could finish, Lin Yan struck with his sword.
Using the Demon Transformation Technique, the peak of the Refining Essence Realm, forcibly elevated, could not withstand a single blow from Lin Yan, and his head flew off.
The people around were all shocked, retreating in fear.
After he had slain the three Great Divine Venerables, the fear of the inhabitants of the Three Gods Valley towards him had intensified beyond measure.
"A puppet kept at the peak of the Refining Essence Realm, used to oppress the Human Clan within the valley, with no hope of advancing to the Qi Refining Realm in this life!"
Lin Yan withdrew his gaze, looked at the crowd, and said indifferently, "Today, I saved you!"
"But in your hearts, I am the slayer of the gods you revered, destroying the meager chances you got by sacrificing your kin!"
"You might feel I am harming you rather than saving you, which is fine... in reality, I slew these three great Demons not solely for you, but because it aligned with the concepts in my heart; not killing them would have left me restless!"
