Chapter 689: Chapter 400: One Punch Subdues the Nine Netherworld! One Strike Breaks the Inner Realm!_3

"Earlier, the Saint Master mentioned that this person claimed his mentor possesses the might of a Human Martial Saint!"

"This time, moving three Guiding Jade pieces indicates that he previously sent people to infiltrate the Demon Domain and journey to Taixuan Divine Mountain."

At this point, Prince Zhen Nan slowly said: "To possess the might of a Human Martial Saint, to leave behind the Profound Yin Divine Skill, to teach the technique of One Punch Subduing the Nine Netherworld, to bestow the method of the Ten-Thousand Blood Great Array, to grant the Soul Capturing Bottle, and even to send men to Taixuan Divine Mountain... altogether, six clues!"

"If taken individually, each clue hardly provides a clear direction."

"But with all six clues pointing together, the candidates matching these conditions number no more than six."

On saying this, Prince Zhen Nan’s expression turned exceedingly grim: "Within the Holy Alliance, their status even surpasses mine..."

Lin Yan replied calmly: "There is one more clue: his mentor achieved Creation Peak cultivation at two hundred years of age."

"This..."

Prince Zhen Nan fell into silence momentarily, then said: "The Master of the Holy Alliance, at two hundred years of age, had already become a Human Martial Saint!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yan raised an eyebrow.

Which means that among the six individuals Prince Zhen Nan suspected initially, one was the Master of the Holy Alliance.

But with the seventh clue, it can be proven that the Master of the Holy Alliance is not the one behind the scenes.

Of course, this is based on the assumption that the Martial Saint’s disciple’s words are true!

"This battle has already shaken all directions. If the ancient beings within the Demon Domain learn of the Saint Master’s whereabouts, surely unforeseen complications will arise!"

Prince Zhen Nan shifted his tone, speaking gravely: "The Demon Domain is no place to linger; let’s discuss further on the way!"

Lin Yan nodded slightly and said: "Let’s go."

Prince Zhen Nan glanced at the corpse of the Martial Saint’s disciple, then flicked his finger. Flames descended, consuming the body entirely.

Little White Ape approached upon seeing this and asked: "Are you trying to destroy evidence? Once this guy’s identity is uncovered, it might implicate his damn mentor as evidence for this ambush on the Saint Master..."

"It’s incapable of being evidence."

Prince Zhen Nan shook his head and said: "He’s already lost control; as a Physical Body Evil, he’s considered to have betrayed the Human Clan. Who can prove he attempted to assassinate the Saint Master under orders?"

The next moment, Prince Zhen Nan gestured toward his deputy general, stating helplessly: "It’s similar to him—wounded as he is now, if left in the Demon Domain, he won’t survive the night without being consumed by Deceit Night, losing control completely!"

"In my Southern King City, the number of soldiers who lost control over the years is not few."

"These lost soldiers were once valiant elites who achieved considerable merits. But under the erosion of Deceit Night, they became Physical Body Evil, lost all sanity, and started devouring their comrades, even attacking the rear lines."

"Last night, when my Royal City attacked the Demon Domain, I’m certain many soldiers developed latent risks. If today the Saint Master enters the Royal City and one of these soldiers loses control, attempting harm against the Saint Master, it’s entirely possible as well."

He sighed and said: "As for the high ranks of the Holy Alliance, they wouldn’t come to sever my head over this matter! Similarly, even if the man behind all this is discovered, a corpse of a Physical Body Evil is insufficient for convicting anyone..."

Lin Yan fell silent; he understood.

Back then, Mr. Lu had nurtured many of the Human Clan’s younger generations as well.

They were once pure members of the Human Clan, full of justice and fearless, willing to sacrifice for the Human Clan!

But in the end, two of them were corrupted by the will of the Ancient Old Gods and became part of the Tribulation Ash.

The Tribulation Ash committed countless crimes, attempting to annihilate cities.

This became a blemish on Mr. Lu’s life, and one of the reasons Mr. Lu was demoted to High Willow City!

"Go and destroy that mountain of corpses; leaving it will only make it become blood food for the evil, spawning another batch of powerful monstrosities later."

Lin Yan glanced at Little White Ape and waved his hand.

Little White Ape took out the Taiji Yin Yang Bottle and headed toward the mountain of corpses in the distance.

The sight of tens of thousands of corpses piled together was horrifying!

At that moment, Little White Ape suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

"Master, there are some survivors."

——

This area originally belonged to the territory of the Demon King, where thousands of the Human Clan were gathered into a large village.

Previously, a Great Demon guarded this place!

The thousands of Human Clan here served as the source of incense for the Demon King, as well as his blood food.

In truth, it was a hunting ground where blood food was reared!"

For the purpose of forming the Ten-Thousand Blood Great Array, additional thousands of the Human Clan were transferred from elsewhere this time.

Among them, there were even several Refining Essence Realm individuals and quite a few Qi Refining Realm cultivators!

Under the Ten-Thousand Blood Great Array, their blood was drained entirely!

But for the Martial Artists above the Refining Essence Realm, their vitality was ultimately robust, leaving a faint breath of life behind by sheer luck.

"Bring them all along!"

Prince Zhen Nan commanded: "These humans reared by the evil can provide many crucial intelligence clues to deepen our understanding of this Demon Domain!"

Moreover, having survived this calamity, as long as they aren’t excessively foolish, they won’t idolize the Demon King as a True God anymore!

Such individuals will harbor strong hatred toward the evil... with training, they might even become sharp blades thrust into the Demon Domain!"

Under the Ten-Thousand Blood Great Array, the lucky survivors numbered three: two Qi Refining Realm cultivators and one exceptionally robust Refining Essence Realm Martial Artist.

The three of them, barely alive, were brought to Prince Zhen Nan’s presence.

Prince Zhen Nan unfolded his Inner Realm Divine Domain, encompassing dozens of elite Human Clan fighters along with the three survivors within.

"I can walk on my own."

Lin Yan gave him a glance and remarked.

Prince Zhen Nan nodded slightly.

He didn’t expect the Saint Master to place his complete trust in him upon their first meeting.

After all, being drawn into someone’s Inner Realm Divine Domain carried inherent risks.

Soon after, his Divine Boots radiated a brilliant light, enabling him to rise rapidly, treading across the air like the wind.

Lin Yan summoned Little White Ape, manifesting Step by Step Lotus, and swiftly caught up.

"Prince’s Inner Realm Divine Domain is truly extraordinary..."

Midway, Lin Yan revealed a hint of curiosity and remarked: "I’ve seen several God Lords at the Creation stage, and none can compare with yours!"

Upon hearing this, Prince Zhen Nan replied: "This Inner Realm Divine Domain is called Carrying Mountains and Chasing the Sun; it ranks among the top within the Holy Alliance..."

"Carrying Mountains and Chasing the Sun?"

Lin Yan froze momentarily, recalling the opportunity mentioned by Li Shen Sect.

But before he had time to ponder further, his heart suddenly sank!

Within Prince Zhen Nan’s Inner Realm Divine Domain, a blinding light unexpectedly erupted!

A blazing radiance pierced through the Inner Realm, breaking through space, hurtling directly toward Lin Yan’s face!
