Peerless Sword Saint Checks In Secretly For 3000 Years Chapter 13

Chapter 13: Enlightening Pill!

“Check-in Success +1”

“Acquired reward: Enlightening Pill.”

Hmm?

This time, Shen Changge felt something in his heart. Suddenly, an unknown urge compelled him to raise his arm and open his hand. All of a sudden, a round pill was rolling around in his hand. It was crystal clear and teeming with Spiritual Energy. Strands of the Spiritual Energy intertwined like threads. Just from smelling the pill, Shen Changge felt as if his entire body had been unclogged. It was an extremely pleasant feeling!

This pill would encourage understanding!

For the current Shen Changge, this was undoubtedly the most precious thing he could acquire!

However, what made Shen Changge felt a little strange was that he could actually get pills in the Small Scripture Repository!

It seemed as though he wouldn't necessarily acquire techniques in places where manuals were kept. It was like getting sword manuals and sword arts under the Sword Lord statue. The rewards were seemingly attributed to the purpose of the specific location.

For example, items and scriptures related to the Scripture Repository were the most obvious rewards that need no explanation, and since disciples cultivated in different scriptures, a disciple's understanding was also involved in the process.

Shen Changge nodded knowingly.

He did not choose to leave the place.

However, at that moment, his face abruptly shook. He unleashed Phantom Shift at maximum force as if he had felt something. Subsequently, within a split second, he vanished from that spot. There were phantoms everywhere around him!

Outside the Small Scripture Repository was a veil of dark mist, and Shen Changge was sensing the aura of someone from outside. Someone was coming!

Shen Changge was very well-versed in the Spirit Guidance technique.

His senses had also become a lot keener.

However, he had not stepped into extremity with the Spirit Guidance technique.

Because of that, although his innate talent did not improve as he had anticipated, the issue was not too big at the moment. After all, Shen Changge's improvement in Cultivation Base was already very terrific.

Shen Changge was hiding in the darkness while his eyes quietly examined everything.

Drip, drip. The dark mist blended into the ground. It seemed that when the two mist came into contact with the ground it made the sound of dripping water.

Inside the dark mist.

“I can't walk any further!”

A few figures, who were in an extreme state of panic, ran towards the Small Scripture Repository. At that moment, all of them had various wounds on their bodies. What seemed to be a dark substance was constantly oozing out from their wounds, causing the areas to darken and rot.

Their faces were pale, and there seemed to be a look of horror in their eyes.

“I think there's a monster up ahead that we can't afford to offend… that's the place where Senior Brother Zhang Chuan died some time ago. You must know that Senior Brother Zhang Chuan was a star at the peak of the Qi Bending stage and one step away from the Liberation stage. However, even he perished at this place… If we continue moving forward…”

“But that demon behind us is coming at us in full fury. If we don't think of a plan soon, all of us will become food for that thing today!”

At that moment, a few disciples from an unknown sect looked extremely pale.

Obviously, they were arrows at the end of their flight…

And at that moment, a very unpleasant sound, more crippling than the murkiness of the dark mist, came from behind them. It was a material dark substance that could drown everything within its existence. It was strange and gloomy. Whoosh. All of a sudden, the dark substance was torn apart and a rotten hand came reaching out from it. Disgusting saliva was dripping from a decaying patch on the arm. When the liquid dripped to the ground it gave off a sizzling sound, signaling a powerful corrosiveness!

Subsequently, more hands stretched out one after another, rubbing against each other and making sounds that would cause one's scalp to tingle!

“It is here!”

The expressions of the youngsters changed drastically. However, the dark mist around them gradually locked them in. They felt as if their legs were injected with lead and they were shackled by chains!

Their faces were pale and they wore horrified expressions. Beads of sweat covered their faces as they shuddered from head to toe.

Oh, a demon in Early-stage Liberation?

Shen Changge could not resist looking at the monster from his spot in the dark. He was doing so with great interest. There were many types of demons. For example, the Master and Slave demon he saw last time was divided into two bodies. As long as the main body was alive, the secondary body would be immortal.

There were also types like the one in front of him, shrouded amid a field of darkness. This was a domain-type demon. Even in Early-stage Liberation, should one accidentally fall into the domain of this type of demon, which was that cluster of dark matter, even stars in Late-stage Liberation would be killed.

Shen Changge hid in the dark, brainstorming while he acted out a possible encounter in his mind.

If he were to slice its domain apart from the outside with Scarlet Lightning, then use Phantom Shift to step into it, then combo Riding Art: Wind Chase and Riding Art: Thousand Step to deliver the quickest burst by piercing his sword directly through the demon's Energy Core, could he snipe this guy?

Shen Changge unconsciously licked his lips. His eyes glittered as he looked at the demon with great interest. For an instant, he forgot to conceal his own aura.

As if it suddenly felt danger, the demon abruptly stopped where it stood with its countless hands rooted in the dark matter dancing around maniacally!

Hm?

What happened?

Why had it suddenly stopped in place?

The youngsters looked at each other, seemingly wanting to take advantage of this pause to mount a quick escape. However, despite their expectations of escape, their feet became wobbly and they promptly fell to the ground.

The cluster of dark matter that the demon was in started to boil. Like a pot of boiling water, the densely packed hands in it began twisting in a random manner. However, this time, it seemed as if it was at a loss!

Subsequently, the demon fled.

The cloud of darkness rumbled, and its contents boiled. The countless hands within the cloud pushed against the ground, joining together rhythmically, and then they rolled away!

The youngster's pupils constricted as they stood in place, looking at the fleeing demon.

“Why…?”

“Why did the demon leave all of a sudden? And it feels like it was… very afraid…”

At that moment, the face of one of the youngsters became extremely solemn.

“I heard that demons will also devour each other. Besides, demons have extremely keen senses of perception. If they bump into danger, they'll run away, too. That only means that… something even more terrifying is over here.”

In an instant, their faces all turned a bit pale.

They began to look around. Currently, their surroundings were quiet, but it was precisely this kind of silence, which, in conjunction with the fleeing monster, made them feel even more afraid!

Amid the darkness, Shen Changge sighed.

That demon had actually run away.

If it hadn't, he really would have liked to test his sword…

He had already arrived at Early-stage Liberation. He wanted to see how many seconds it would take for him to kill a domain-type demon by utilizing the Empyrean Sword Manual and his various Assaulting Arts.

“W-what should we do now…?”

“I have a really bad feeling about this…”

The youngster could not help but swallow. They felt the sense of horror sinking in. It felt as if there was an evil spirit amid the darkness that was quietly looking at them with its eyes wide open.

Sheng Changge opened his eyes, looked at the youngsters in the Enlightenment and Qi Bending stages, and smiled pridefully in spite of himself.

I guess I definitely won't expose myself when I'm facing these people.
