Chapter 629: Yan Han Becoming a Demon Shocking Everyone
That was what it was like to truly have an overwhelming advantage.
The Dance of the Dragons unleashed the greatest power of lightning skills.
The attack dealt serious blows to Yan Han and even cornered him.
Everyone saw the remaining lightning dragons devour Yan Han.
Their skin crawled as the scene unfolded. The lightning skills being too frightening to behold.
“No wonder he could destroy the entire Taichu Path all on his own. I mean, just who in the world would be able to take on such lightning skills?”
Everyone talked amongst themselves. Several of them were very proficient with thunder and lightning skills; one such person was the old celestial master of the Celestial Master Pat. There were also some people from the Maoshan Sect who were very proficient with thunder and lightning skills.
Compared to Lu Xuan’s Dance of the Dragon being conjured before their eyes, however, they were far less skilled than him. They weren’t even close to being at the same level as him.
Yan Han was about to lose.
Many watched with their mouths agape as they saw just how miserable Yan Han looked in the lightning attacks. Under such unbelievably heavy lightning attacks, even someone like Yan Han had to balk and take heavy losses.
Great Ancestor Shen Jian said, “He is completely overwhelmed.”
“There’s no doubt that this one’s the best in the world.” Great Ancestor Zhang Cheng was just as much in awe as well. Despite being so far away, he was still capable of sensing that towering might that Lu Xuan emitted.
Lu Xuan stood with his hands behind his back as he watched Yan Han being overwhelmed by the lightning dragons in the clouds. Lightning magic was the strongest and hardest among all the spells found throughout the world. This type of magic was believed to be the antithesis of all evil.
It was especially so when Lu Xuan cast it; the power that it contained was simply unimaginable.
However, there was not a single hint of glee in his expression. He sensed that Yan Han’s vitals weren’t weakening. Instead, they were actually growing.
Thump, thump, thump!
Nobody else could hear his forceful heartbeats, but it felt like he was listening to it right before him; the sounds were as clear as they could be.
Roar!
A massive angry roar suddenly rang out. A pitch-black demonic claw then emerged out of the clouds, grabbing onto a lightning dragon and crushing it until it was instantly reduced to nothingness.
One by one, the demonic claws emerged and tore apart the lightning dragons through sheer brute strength.
The attacks were so powerful that even the dark clouds were torn apart right away.
Nobody expected this to have happened.
The spectators were still reeling in shock from the awe-inspiring might of Lu Xuan’s lightning skill, but they all suddenly sensed a terrifying pressure shrouding the entire Sanxian Mountain.
As the lighting dragons were all reduced to specks of light and electricity scattered all over the place, everyone saw a figure walking out of it slowly. That figure was none other than Yan Han.
He bore no resemblance to that dashing look he sported at the start at that moment; he hardly even looked human, as he looked more like a monster than anything. Now, he no longer looked as dashing as he did at the start. He hardly even looked human; he looked more like a monster than anything.
Everyone saw how his body vaguely morphed into that of a monster, with at least half of it growing black scales. His face was blackened and fangs protruded out of his mouth, while horns resembling those of goats protruded from his head.
A pair of demonic wings sprouted from behind his back.
He no longer looked human, instead looking like some kind of monster never seen before.
Upon suddenly remembering something, one person said, “That look… he looks like seems like some kind of demon mentioned in the texts. Yan Han had become a demon!”
All of the demonic qi surrounding Yan Han and his demonic appearance meant that he had fully become a demon now.
“I’ve sensed that something was off with Yan Han before. This explains it.”
After finally seeing the anomaly standing before them, some of the more perceptive ones finally realized why they sensed that something was wrong with Yan Han before.
Yan Han had actually become a demon.
In the world of cultivators throughout history, succumbing to demonic possession had been quite a common occurrence. Some cultivators even specialized in the demonic ways, but they were quite rare in recent times.
Back in ancient times, cultivators in the demonic arts were responsible for wreaking havoc and committing mass murder.
Looking at Yan Han as he was then, everyone recalled just how terrifying the demonic cultivators had once been. They had only been able to eradicate all of those demonic cultivators ages ago by bombarding those cultivators with multiple attacks.
That was because cultivators of demonic arts were extremely threatening to other cultivators. They were capable of consuming the flesh, blood, and even powers of other cultivators to grow stronger.
That was an enticing way to greatly enhance their powers in a very short amount of time. As such, many people in ancient times who were incapable of resisting temptation became demonic cultivators.
Those cultivators then posed a huge threat to the other cultivators.
Yan Han had once devoured the entire Guimen Sect before, causing his powers to grow exponentially as a result. However, many people never got into close proximity with demonic cultivators for far too long. That was why they overlooked the whole thing.
They hardly even thought of demonic possession to be a possibility.
Upon looking at Yan Han’s current appearance, however, many recalled what happened right away. They were surprised that he actually became a demon.
“So, that was why he was able to not only survive but also grow his powers so significantly in such a short amount of time.”
Many realized what happened. They finally remembered how Yan Han was able to see such exponential growth with his powers and becoming so frighteningly powerful so quickly.
He had taken the demonic path. His case was definitely not unusual among the demonic cultivators. It was precisely due to what happened to him that enticed many to take the demonic path.
Many felt their skin crawl at the sight. If Yan Han had become a demon, it would mean that his powers would see a huge spike again within a short amount of time if he were to be left alive on that day. By then, the entire world of cultivators would become his meals.
This was precisely who the demonic path had once been popular. If Yan Han needed to keep the appearance and play the role of the sacred son of the Taichu Path before, then he apparently no longer needed to do so no.
After being cornered to such an extent, the only option left for him was probably mass slaughter. He could only completely kill every cultivator there was because his hatred and resentment could be quelled. Only by killing every cultivator present could his hatred be quelled.
He wasn’t even a dedicated demonic arts practitioner. Rather, he was someone who picked it up halfway. Such cultivators required frightening levels of hatred before beginning on the path, as they would only truly become such by committing mass murder unchecked.
He was different from many of the demonic cultivators who had picked up demonic arts right from the beginning. While those people might be eccentric, they would at least still be humans in some way.
Someone like Yan Han was probably the real deal, so much so that he had probably rid himself of just about all human emotions.
“Yan Han has to die now. Otherwise, we won’t live long enough to see the next sunrise. The entire world would become his sustenance.”
Everyone made their judgment quickly; they determined that as Yan Han currently was, he had to die. Otherwise, their respective heritages would most definitely die with them.
