Chapter 628: Chapter 334: The Disappearing Existence _2

Su Nan stood on top of a building, gazing at the distance.

All the happenings within the Daxuan Royal Palace were clearly visible to him. In the darkness above the palace, two figures were standing in midair, and below them was the Great Temple!

“I’m Zhao Tianming, an old fool. May I ask what brings the two of you to our Daxuan Royal Palace?” One of the Peak King-level old men, accompanied by several other King-level powerhouses, also stood in midair, confronting the two of them.

The two people were none other than Luo Yu and the Great Princess.

The palace below was enveloped in a formation. If they were to enter now, they would surely alarm the Offering God Demons. They could only wait outside of the formation.

The blood sacrifice ritual in the Great Temple had already begun, and now all they had to do was wait for Su Nan’s command to launch an attack on the temple below.

Xuan-level martial artists from the Daxuan Royal Family were startled by the commotion and looked up at the two with serious expressions.

“A Peak King-level? Where did these Peak King-levels come from? What do they want to do?”

“Outsiders! They must be outsiders! The formation of the Death Desert must have been broken!”

“Dammit, of all the times for them to come, they chose this moment. Is this a coincidence?”

It had been so many years since Du Qiyuan left, and no one had invaded their Daxuan Royal Palace since, not even those at the Peak King-level.

Although the two hadn’t entered the royal palace yet, they could see they were up to no good.

“Don’t worry, even if they’re at the Peak King-level, they still have to crawl in this palace.”

Hearing this, others nodded in agreement, “That’s right. If it were anywhere else, maybe we’d have to be wary of them. But here, as long as it isn’t an emperor-level powerhouse, no one can do anything to us!”

Everyone glanced in the direction of the Great Temple, full of confidence.

The Great Princess and Luo Yu didn’t pay any attention to the old man named Zhao Tianming. Instead, they continued to stare at the Great Temple below.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Tianming and the other old men exchanged a glance, their hearts sinking with a bad premonition.

Zhao Tianming wanted to say something else, but at this moment, a low shout suddenly sounded from a distance:

“Attack!”

As Su Nan’s voice rang out, Luo Yu and the Great Princess reacted quickly and struck the Great Temple below at the first opportunity.

“Damn! They really came for the Great Temple!”

“Stop them!” Seeing the intentions of the Great Princess and Luo Yu, Zhao Tianming’s face changed and he shouted to stop them.

“You old guys think you can stop me?” Luo Yu sneered, brandishing his demon sword, and a sword light formed from Demonic Qi tore through the void.

“Danger!” Facing the sword light, several old men felt a chill in their hearts. They had a feeling that if they took this sword head-on, they would die!

With a shiver, they instinctively retreated, and in that instant, the Great Princess’s Power of Divine Soul had already slammed into the temple below.

The temple was attacked, the Offering God Demons were alerted, and the next moment, a gigantic figure condensed from Divine Souls emerged from the temple.

The figure was similar to the Offering God Demon that Su Nan saw in the Tianyun City God’s Temple before, with a green face and fangs, horrifying in appearance.

The Offering God Demon was furious and attacked the Great Princess and Luo Yu. Luo Yu held his demon sword, and the surging Demonic Qi erupted with power, not any weaker than the Offering God Demon.

“It’s a demon beast!”

“He’s a demon beast!”

Feeling Luo Yu’s aura, several of the Daxuan Royal Family ancestors showed fear in their eyes.

“What happened?”

“What is that? Could that be the hidden trump card of the Daxuan Royal Family?”

The ancestors of the Five Great Families were all startled and couldn’t help but gasp as they saw the huge monstrous figure.

Their battle made earth-shaking noises, and the martial artists of the entire royal city were alarmed.

In the Great Temple, Su Nan’s avatar paid no attention to the commotion outside, staring at the burning incense with anticipation in his eyes.

As the seven figures surrounded the three incense sticks stained in fresh blood, they sucked in the smoke from the burning incense greedily.

As the burning smoke was absorbed, Su Nan distinctly felt the connection between him and the Paper Puppet Demons becoming increasingly close, allowing him to have a preliminary control over them.

“Almost there! It’s about to succeed.” Even knowing the outcome, Su Nan could hardly contain his excitement.

Finally, as the three incense sticks burned out, Su Nan clearly felt that the connection between him and the Paper Puppet Demons had been completely established!

At almost the same time, a game prompt popped up:

[Congratulations! You have completed the third phase of the Mainline Task “Path of the National Master”. Would you like to claim your rewards now?]

“Yes!”

[Congratulations on obtaining the Xuan-Level Monster Scripture]

[Congratulations on acquiring the Xuan-Level Bloodline]

[Congratulations on acquiring 60 points of Demon Power]

[Congratulations on acquiring the Divine Dao Secret Techniques]

Receiving the task rewards and without hesitation, Su Nan wasted no time outside the royal palace, and immediately said, “It’s about time, this should be the end.”

Hearing this, the Great Princess and Luo Yu understood implicitly. The Soul Divine Lamp appeared in the Great Princess’s hand, fully urging the Power of Divine Soul. The flames in the lamp suddenly jumped out.

Instantly, the Offering God Demons were pulled and their massive bodies became distorted.

“Roar!” The Offering God Demons roared angrily, struggling to break free from the pull of the Soul Divine Lamp.

The Soul Divine Lamp was powerful, but with the Great Princess’s strength, it could only be fully activated once, and the duration was not long.

Given the strength of the Offering God Demons, there was still a high probability of breaking free. After all, the current Offering God Demons were not like the demonic thoughts in the foreknowledge, affected by the power of the Life and Death Mirror.

However, the well-prepared Luo Yu would not give him a chance.

His demon sword was activated with full force, and at this moment, it erupted with its true power.

With one sword strike, the body of the Offering God Demons instantly became extremely illusory, almost collapsing.

“It’s my turn!” Seeing this, Su Nan suddenly made his move, waiting just for this moment!

Although the Great Princess and Luo Yu were acting under his control, he couldn’t be sure whether killing the Offering God Demons himself would be counted as his own kill.

Just in case, he decided to add the final blow.

Using Across the Heavens Shift, he instantly appeared behind the Offering God Demons, the Dragon-Slaying Sword appeared in his hand, slashing fiercely down.

This was his first time using the Dragon-Slaying Sword, and in an instant, the strength in his body was drained!

This sword attack gathered all of his strength. If it were an ordinary time, this strike would at most wound the Offering God Demons. But now the Offering God Demons were severely injured and dying, so they naturally couldn’t resist his attack any longer.

The sword fell, and the already incredibly illusory Offering God-Demons completely dissipated.

“This, this…” The several ancestors of the Daxuan Royal Family looked at this scene blankly, disbelief and despair written on their faces.

Although it was their first time seeing the appearance of the Offering God Demons, they knew that it was the biggest trump card left to them by their ancestors.

However, today this most significant trump card had been killed!

Not only them, but the ancestors of the Five Great Families also had their pupils constricted, looking at Su Nan and the others incredulously.

“Divine Weapons! They’re all holding Divine Weapons!”

“Hiss… Are you kidding me, three Divine Weapons? Have Divine Weapons become so common in the outside world that everyone has one?”

[Congratulations, you have completed the daily task “Hunting the Offering God Demons.” 60 points of Demon Power have been issued.]

[Current available demonic power: 395]

Looking at the prompt in front of him, Su Nan’s eyes showed satisfaction.

“Now that the Offering God Demons have been killed, I wonder what’s going on with that presence in the secret chamber?”

With a thought in his heart, he looked at the “Explore the Daxuan Palace” task on the panel.

Because of the weird emperor-level presence in the secret chamber, this task had not been completed previously.

Even during his last attempt to use the Life and Death Mirror to deal with the presence, he had directly provoked the Offering God Demons to act.

At that time, he had suspected that the bizarre presence might have some connection with the Offering God Demons. Now that the Offering God Demons had been killed, he wondered what effect it would have on that presence?

As his thoughts turned, he immediately looked to his foreknowledge.

[After successfully hunting down the Offering God Demons, you decide to explore the Daxuan Palace once again.]

[You know that there is a secret chamber below one of the side temples, and in that chamber, an emperor-level powerhouse resides.]

[However, after you entered the secret chamber, you were surprised to find that the chamber was empty, and the emperor-level powerhouse had disappeared.]

[You don’t know that, the moment the Offering God Demons were killed, the presence in the chamber had already left.]

“Left?”

Su Nan’s brow furrowed, and he hadn’t considered this situation.

At the same time, his heart tensed. That was an emperor-level powerhouse. If he suddenly appeared and attacked him, he would have no way to resist.

Fortunately, previous foreknowledge showed that killing the Offering God Demons would not provoke the presence to act.

“Since it’s gone, can I now complete this ‘Explore the Daxuan Palace’ task?”
