Chapter 519: The Demonic Monument

Chapter 519: The Demonic Monument

Translator: _Tat_ Editor: Rundi

In the cultivation community, there is a strange object named the Demon Defending Monument.

This object is not exactly a treasure, and it is not really constructed by anyone. The only thing everyone knows is that there are a limited number of these monuments and they are extremely rare. The use of this monument is exactly what its name states – an ability that is powerful and mighty.

Demon defending.

Defending all that's considered devious.

Even though its effects are very simple, it is extremely strong. It surpasses the normal laws, and it ignores actual capabilities. Even the weakest cultivators, those of the meditation level, can use this object to remain safe from demons.

This demon, indicates the demons created naturally between Heaven and Earth. It also indicates spiritual beings who have followed onto the devious path.

If this monument is used as a shield, no matter how powerful the devil, the only ending that awaits is that it will be suppressed. In other words, this monument is the mortal enemy of all devils. Even the most ferocious and destructive are without hope against the monument.

Once inside the lost century, Ling Xian was fortunate enough to have encountered the Demon Defending Monument and to have learned all the information about it.

The actual appearance of the monument was of utter darkness. There were no bloody carvings on it and only when a demon was trapped inside, will a bloody carving appear. The bloody line only disappears after the demon dies.

The more lines there are, the more powerful the demons trapped inside the monument are.

This was why Ling Xian's expression changed after seeing the number of red lines on the monument. When he realized that the red lines summed up to five, his expression drastically turned heavy and he felt a headache.

If the carvings on the monument were the same as one's cultivation level, then one carving indicated the meditation level, and two carvings indicated the foundational level. If one deduced this way, the answer to five carvings was clear.

Cultivation of the original level!

A truly unparalleled demon!

How can Ling Xian not be surprised at this? With his cultivation progress today, he can forget about surpassing those of the original level, he had to admire and look up to those of the original level!

However, since he has encountered this monument, he had to deal with this troublesome matter.

Because legend has it that once one encounters the monument, one will be completely suppressed and locked in by the devious atmosphere inside the monument. As long as the demon remains alive, the cultivator will be haunted by this negative energy which will ultimately result in the physical body being damaged.

For example, one may find it impossible to break through. This was why Ling Xian said this monument would end up bringing everyone countless problems.

Of course, he can choose to do nothing on the side and let Wang Yang and Lin Ying deal with it all. However, he had already calculated everything and already decided to deal with this matter.

After all, this was an unparalleled demon. If everything goes according to his plan, he will get something out of this. In other words, he would have acquired a super powerful security guard that will help him walk all around Yunzhou trouble free.

After all, Ling Tian Xiang was now possessed. Before long, she will enter an unimaginably terrifying place. Even as strong as Ling Xian is, he will have to look up to her.

Therefore, he needed this monument just in case anything bad happens.

As for how to solve the problem with the demons inside – he will need to communicate with it. This was why he murmured to himself and wished that this monument was a kind one. What he meant was that he wished the demon inside was kind.

Right now, Ling Xian was standing on top of the mountain. He formed multiple different hand seals in the hope of sealing up the demon inside.

Even though he understood that the monument itself had natural powers that disabled the demon from escaping, the demon had a superpower after all. How could he leave anything up to chance?

"Phew, I hope the demon inside is conscious enough to communicate with me." Ling Xian sighed loudly. He manipulated his golden Dan and made sure he was at his optimal condition.

Then, he formed his hands into an abstruse seal and mumbled a heavenly and strange verse.

"Demon inside there, I know you are not dead, and you are able to communicate with me through the doings of God. Talk to me."

The message was sent in in the same manner as a small rock being dropped into the ocean. Not a single ripple was created.

Nobody responded to Ling Xian's message, and there was no sign of a reaction. However, he remained patient for an answer.

Because he had experienced the lost century, Ling Xian knew everything about the Demon Defending Monument. Every secret it has was clear to him as well.

Therefore, Ling Xian was not in a rush.

He waited for a very long while before the Demon Defending Monument passed out a message that carried an immense amount of devious energy.

"You young fella sure have some knowledge. You recognized the Demon Defending Monument right away."

Just then, a terrifying amount of evil Qi roared out, wiping out the color in the sky and shocking the lakes and the mountains!

"You're threatening me?"

Ling Xian frowned slightly but was not fearful. Though this demon is powerful, it has already been sealed. The power it displayed while attacking was merely of the intermediate stage of the completion level. Why would he be afraid?

Rolling up his sleeve, the devious Qi rose into the sky and clouds and disappeared immediately. The place returned to its normal clarity.

"You sure are a powerful one who surpassed the original level. Even after being sealed by the monument, you can still release such dominating attacks." Ling Xian praised. His handsome face revealed some happiness.

After what happened just now, he could conclude that the demon inside the monument was conscious and was not just a monster who slaughters randomly.

"No wonder you dare to speak to me in such a manner. Not only do you know about the monument, but you are also somewhat capable."

The demon inside the Demon Defending Monument once again sent a message. Its tone was expressionless, and it was unclear if it was mad or happy.

"You are overpraising me." Ling Xian grinned gently, "The Demon Defending Monument is the mortal enemy of all the demons. Once sealed by the monument, the demon is no different than an ordinary individual. I cannot believe you still have strength left in you."

"Hmmph, are you mocking me by saying that?" The demon hissed.

"No, I am simply happy. Happy that you have a consciousness and can communicate." The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up. As long as it can communicate, it can judge the right from the wrong.

As for the result, it will depend on what each of them had to offer.

"Hmmph, less bullsh*t talking. Why did you call for me? There is no way you are here to chat with me." The demon's voice was cold and was full of killer's intent.

"Of course."

Ling Xian's smile disappeared, and he said in a low voice, "Get rid of your killer's intent. Don't forget, you are not a glorious demon right now, you are merely a trapped inmate."

"Young man, how dare you speak to me like this. Are you seeking death?"

The anger in its voice was very heavy. It was obvious that this demon was enraged. This was normal. It was a super powerhouse cultivator who surpassed the original level. It had always lived above others, and nobody dared to show it disrespect.

"Seeking death?"

The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up. He knew that he had to suppress this demon in order to gain the upper hand in this relationship. Therefore, he taunted, "What makes you think you have the right to speak like this?"

Hearing this, the demon fell into silence.

Just like Ling Xian said, it was merely a lowly inmate and had no actual ability to kill Ling Xian.

However, its pride was not to be challenged. In a rage, it shouted, "If I was moving freely, I could kill you with a finger."

"What a pity. That was before. You today are no different than an ordinary being in my eyes," Ling Xian continued to tease.

"You are seeking death!"

The devil was boiling in anger as killer's intent seeped out of the monument. Even the monument's natural array and the inhibitions set by Ling Xian could not defend against this devious Qi.

In the next second, however, this astonishing killer's intent disappeared without a trace, as if it was never there in the first place.

It was all because the demon heard one statement that made it retract all of its desire to kill.

"You better withdraw all your killer's intent. Unless you are not planning on getting out of there."
