Supreme Demon God

The mountains were undulating.

Hundreds of people ran across the mountains, lightning flashed in the sky.

A huge lion could be seen standing high above the clouds, surrounded by lightning, looking down at the people below with sharp eyes as if looking at prey.

This was of course not an ordinary lion. It was a monster beast named Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion. Even among the monster beasts, it belonged to the extremely ferocious category.

However, this Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion had been tamed. Unless it ran away suddenly, it would not attack people indiscriminately, let alone catch people as prey and eat it.

Having said that, it would be different if its owner's order was received. In this case, it was not called a random attack, but a targeted and planned attack.

The hundreds of people below were the targets of the Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion.

However, this lion had not exploded with all its strength yet. Otherwise, the hundreds of people below would definitely not be able to withstand the attacks of this level of monster beast.

"Boom..."

The lightning flashed, and a thunder arc descended from the sky and landed in the mountains.

After hearing a loud roll, many people were smashed and flew out. They were immediately charred and fell to the ground, unconscious.

When the others saw this, they quickly dispersed and fled in different directions.

A young man in a fire-red dress looked around, found a deserted path, and plunged in.

After running wildly for a while, he glanced back towards the sky, only to find that the Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion in the sky was actually chasing him.

"Why does it keep chasing me?!" The young man was frightened.

"Boom..."

Another arc of thunder fell from the sky, but the young man escaped a little faster and was not directly hit by the arc of thunder.

"Boom!"

There was another bang, and the aftermath of the energy generated by the lightning arc splitting on the ground spread out and impacted on the young man's back, causing him to fly forward abruptly.

A ray of light appeared, the dense forest disappeared, and the young man swooped and landed on a flat ground full of weeds.

"Roar…"

The Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion in the sky let out a roar, seeming to be a little unhappy about not being able to kill the young man.

Its gaze fell on the young man below before it shook its head slightly. In the blink of an eye, a series of lightning arcs fell from the sky again.

"It's over."

The young man's mind went blank and closed his eyes in despair.

At this moment, a blinding light flashed, and a figure appeared in front of the young man.

Seeing several thunder arcs were about fall, the figure glanced at it slightly before he raised his hand and waved lightly.

His invisible True Energy gushing out, easily blocking those thunder arcs.

The person who suddenly appeared was naturally Mo Xiu, who was transported here by the Teleportation Array.

This was the territory of the Everlasting Sword Sect. Although many people of the Everlasting Sword Sect had long forgotten about this, this place happened to be the location that connected with the Seraphic Sword Sect via that Teleportation Array.

The Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion obviously did not expect a person to suddenly appear, and even the several thunder arcs just now were resolved in an instant. This kind of thing made it very annoying.

After another roar, it stomped in midair, and then swooped down towards Mo Xiu.

Mo Xiu snorted coldly and displayed his Dharma body. After the gloomy light flashed, his figure disappeared. At the same time, a super huge demon statue of more than 300 feet high appeared.

"Roar…"

A low but powerful roar came out, and the surrounding trees fell one after another.

The young man in the flaming red dress felt something was wrong just now. At this moment, he quickly opened his eyes and looked up at the sky. He was shocked soon.

"This... what is this?"

The huge 300-foot-tall golem scared him so much that he almost fainted on the spot.

Not to mention this young man, the Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion who was about to find Mo Xiu just now to settle accounts was stunned and was a little at a loss for a while.

Before it could react, Mo Xiu controlled the golem with his giant hand, grabbed the Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion in his hand, and squeezed it lightly.

Without anything fancy, the powerful Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion was instantly broken to pieces. 

The blood burst and dissipated again. After that, the gloomy light flashed, the 300-foot-high golem disappeared, and Mo Xiu's figure reappeared.

"Oh?"

Mo Xiu saw the young man below at a glance, and couldn't help frowning.

He didn't know the current situation; he didn't know if killing the Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion would cause trouble for him. But the best way was to kill the young man to prevent troubles.

However, under the glance of his pair of Mystic Demon Eyes, he knew the situation of this young man instantly.

This young man's cultivation talent was not high, and his cultivation level was not that good, but there was actually a thin phoenix bloodline in his body. 

If it were an ordinary man, Mo Xiu would naturally have no worries. But since this young guy had Phoenix blood in his body, then Mo Xiu would have to think about it.

With a turn of his mind, invisible True Energy flew out and the young man flew up from the ground and fell into his hand.

Then his figure flashed and quickly disappeared with the young man.

...

A clean and uninhabited land.

Mo Xiu put the young man down and asked, "What's your name?"

The young man didn't know who Mo Xiu was, but in his opinion, Mo Xiu's strength was not normal. Under such circumstances, he would not dare to conceal a bit of it.

"Junior Ming Huang, thank you senior for helping me."

He bowed to Mo Xiu and said respectfully.

"Ming Huang?"

Mo Xiu wrote down the young man's name, and then asked, "Where is this place? What are you doing in this place? Why did the Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion attack you just now?"

Ming Huang was stunned, and glanced at Mo Xiu secretly, with some doubts, "Isn't senior from the Everlasting Sword Sect?"

"You answer me," Mo Xiu said coldly.

Ming Huang hesitated for a while, and replied, "This is the Everlasting Sword Sect. This junior came to participate in the assessment of the new disciples of the Everlasting Sword Sect this year. One of the mission in the assessment is to survive the attack of the Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion."

"..."

Mo Xiu couldn't help but look at Ming Huang more.

As far as he knew, the Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion was the descendant of the Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Holy Lion. The ancestor of the Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Holy Lion and the Phoenix Clan had enmity.

It must because the Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion recognized the bloodline inside Ming Huang, so it targeted Ming Huang all the way.

It was estimated that Ming Huang himself was not aware of the fact that he was carrying the Phoenix blood. Otherwise, he would not participate in this assessment without knowing the content of the assessment.

Of course, it was also possible that Ming Huang didn't know that people with Phoenix blood would be madly attacked by the Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion.

After all, whether it was the Phoenix Clan or the Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Celestial Lion, they all belong to the category of the celestial beast in the Realm of Heaven. People in the lower realms simply couldn't know such information. 

The Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion had been squeezed to death by Mo Xiu, so Ming Huang would be safe for the time being.

However, with Ming Huang's aptitude and talent, he really doubted whether he could pass the test of the Everlasting Sword Sect and become a disciple of the Everlasting Sword Sect.

After thinking about it, he asked, "What other tests need to be assessed after this test is passed?"

"No, this is already the last test," Ming Huang replied.

"The last test?" Mo Xiu was slightly surprised. Didn't it mean that even people like Ming Huang could become disciples of the Everlasting Sword Sect?

"Originally, this final test would eliminate most people, leaving only a few elites. But now that the Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion has been slain by senior..."

Ming Huang said, "I guess that hundreds of people will be able to join the Everlasting Sword Sect this year. But there will definitely be several rounds of screening after that. No one can say whether they can become Everlasting Sword Sect disciples. But maybe they can still become handyman disciples in the sect."

Mo Xiu nodded slightly. Joining the Everlasting Sword Sect and becoming a disciple of the Everlasting Sword Sect were two different concepts.

Even if the Everlasting Sword Sect had been reduced to a second-rate sect, it was certainly still not a place where random people could become its disciples. This made it slightly acceptable.

"By the way, senior, Nine Sky Thunder Cloud Lion was the pet of Elder Lei of the Everlasting Sword Sect. Elder Lei is quite powerful in the Everlasting Sword Sect. You have to be careful," Ming Huang suddenly reminded.

"I know," Mo Xiu said, raising his hand and hitting Ming Huang's forehead with a seal.

Ming Huang was shocked, thinking that Mo Xiu was going to kill him.

But soon, he soon discovered that he had not suffered any harm. His body was intact, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with his body.

"Senior, you...?" Ming Huang asked courageously.

"Don't worry. As long as you don't tell what happened before, the seal just now won't do anything to you. You can ignore its existence," Mo Xiu replied blankly.

Ming Huang was stunned for a moment, and said quickly, "Senior, don't worry. Junior will definitely not talk about the previous things."

"Good."

Mo Xiu was naturally not worried about Ming Huang telling things. But it was very likely that even if Ming Huang didn't say it, that Elder Lei would be able to pry open Ming Huang's mouth.

After solving this problem, he waved his hand, "You go back and continue the previous assessment first. I will look for you in the future. You should be mentally prepared."

Ming Huang suddenly became a little nervous. He didn't know why Mo Xiu said he would still look for him. But he didn't dare to ask more, he directly nodded and said goodbye, then turned and left quickly.

Mo Xiu watched with his gaze until Ming Huang's figure disappeared before he strayed away.

...

Outside the gate of the Everlasting Sword Sect.

The two disciples were guarding conscientiously, and a figure suddenly appeared.

"Who are you?!" The two became nervous promptly.

The person who appeared was Mo Xiu. He glanced at the two of them as his powerful pressure swept away, suppressing the two for a while.

"You...!" The two were shocked, wondering what Mo Xiu wanted to do.

"Tell your Sect Master, the person of the Seraphic Sword Sect is looking for him," Mo Xiu said, taking back the pressure just now.

With lingering fears, the two looked at each other before they nodded lightly. Then one of the two stayed behind as the other quickly went inside to report.

After a while, a voice with a little anger rang out, "Which madman dares to pretend to be a member of the Seraphic Sword Sect?"
