Chapter 216: Chapter 119: The End of the Endless Sea

"Human whelp, your death is certain!"

The Demon Fiend Giants roared.

BOOM!

In the next instant, the terrifying form of the Six-winged Ice Serpent came to an abrupt halt.

A sword hummed, and a cold light flashed. Its body froze in mid-air before crashing heavily to the ground in the blink of an eye. Its eyes still held their rampant fury, but it was already completely lifeless!

It was dead!

A single sword strike had extinguished its Vitality and scattered its soul!

「In the distance.」

Su Chen stood with his sword still in hand, not yet sheathed in its Sword Box. He stared at the blade, then at the corpse of the Six-winged Ice Serpent, silent and lost in thought.

’And they called this the bloodline of a Heaven-Reaching Serpent!’

’Such a grand reputation.’

’But in the end, it couldn’t even take a single one of my sword strikes?’

’This isn’t what I was expecting at all.’

He had expected a grueling battle, a testament to the hidden masters of Demon Mountain...

"That’s it..."

"It’s not playing dead, is it?"

Su Chen walked over and stared at the corpse of the Six-winged Ice Serpent. But there was no faking an extinguished Longevity Fire and a scattered soul.

It had truly fallen!

At this moment, the scene fell into a deathly silence.

Amidst the ice and snow, the Demon Fiend Giants fell silent one by one.

The mockery in their eyes vanished without a trace, replaced by a terror they had never known. They were scared out of their wits, the blood draining from their faces just as it would a human’s.

"How can this be?!"

"No!"

"Run!"

Panic boiled over.

A giant ape shattered the mountain beneath its feet and leaped into the sky, fleeing into the distance. A great bird ignited in a blaze as bright as the sun and shot toward the horizon. Vile specters dissolved into black smoke and vanished...

However, Su Chen needed only one sword strike.

In an instant, the world fell quiet.

The mountainside was littered with the skeletal remains of Great Demons. The snow itself was stained crimson, and no amount of fresh powder could wash the color away.

The blood of Great Demons pooled into rivers, flowing over Demon Mountain and through the ruins of the Great Hall of Ten Thousand Demons.

The world was silent.

The wind howled, the snow drifted.

In this world, only a figure in a Muddy World Profound Robe stood tall.

From this day forward, the Human World might still have its Demon Monster Mountain Range, but Demon Mountain itself was no more.

’Is it my lucky day?’

Little Turtle expertly poked its head out of Su Chen’s sleeve and gulped.

’So hungry...’

In the end, after looking around, it waddled toward the snow-covered Six-winged Ice Serpent...

"What’s next?"

"Where to go?"

Su Chen left.

Sheathing his long sword and shouldering his Sword Box, he walked step by step away from Demon Mountain.

He had stayed in the Imperial City and the Imperial Palace for too long.

Now, he wanted to leave this Palm of the Human World.

He wanted to find an old acquaintance.

And while he was at it, he would see the world’s mountains and seas.

「After a long time.」

Long after Su Chen had gone, a few Great Demon Fiends finally dared to venture onto Demon Mountain, where the blizzard had subsided and a quiet peace was settling.

In the Demon Monster Mountain Range, this Demon Mountain was their Imperial City.

The Great Hall of Ten Thousand Demons was their Imperial Palace!

But now, they fell silent!

Their "Imperial City" was buried in snow, their "Imperial Palace" had vanished, leaving only ruins. Even the greatest among their Demon Fiend kind had been reduced to shattered bones buried beneath the ice.

"Demon Mountain is gone!"

"This..."

"Who did this?"

A Great Demon Fiend roared.

Soon, he found a stone tablet standing amidst the remains of demon titans and countless other corpses.

Upon it was a single word.

It was etched with countless intersecting sword marks that resembled a blizzard.

Slay.

"Wind Snow Sword Immortal!"

On this day, the Demon Monster Mountain Range fell silent.

From then on, across the vast Demon Monster Mountain Range, the blizzard never ceased.

A man came to Demon Mountain with his sword. Upon the summit, he unleashed two slashes! One slash shattered the arrogant spirit of the Demon Monster Mountain Range. The other shattered the legacy of Demon Mountain. The very echo of his blade then shattered their fortune for the next thousand years...

Demon Mountain had fallen!

Daqian no longer had the hidden threat of Demon Fiends!

The news spread to Daqian Imperial City with terrifying speed.

The entire world was shocked!

But the Human World was shrouded in a fog of forgetting, and no one could quite recall who this Wind Snow Sword Immortal was.

"Wind Snow Sword Immortal?"

"That name sounds so familiar. Does our Human Race truly have such a terrifying Immortal?!"

"Perhaps."

"He must be some reclusive master."

The Three Sovereigns of Daqian fell silent.

After a long moment, Zhu Ying clutched his chest. His sword slid from its sheath, shimmering with layers of Innate Gang Qi that rolled like a tide—one hundred and eight layers in total, pregnant with terrifying power.

"That name is so familiar."

"I want to go meet this Sword Immortal..."

And so, he set off on a swift horse, racing toward Demon Mountain.

It wasn’t just him.

Another man was also making his way toward Demon Mountain, his gait unsteady. He wore a tattered Daoist Robe and was utterly disheveled, yet his eyes shone with a light that could never be extinguished.

He had arrived earlier and was now at the foot of Demon Mountain.

A Great Demon Fiend blocked his path!

"Insolence!"

"Human Race Cultivator, this is not a place you should be!"

The Great Demon Fiend’s roar shook the heavens as it prepared to swallow the foolishly weak Human Race Cultivator whole.

Unfortunately for it, before it could even get close, it fell dead!

"No!"

"Upper Immortal, spare me!"

The other arriving Great Demon Fiends trembled, immediately dropping to their knees to beg for mercy, their will to fight completely gone.

’Another terrifying Immortal of the Human Race has arrived!’

’After what the Wind Snow Sword Immortal did, how could we dare provoke him in the slightest!’

"I came here looking for someone."

"He... is perhaps very important to me."

The disheveled Daoist walked past the Great Demon Fiends. He ascended to the summit of Demon Mountain, stepping over the corpses of countless demons and the ruins of the great hall until he stood before the sword-scarred stone tablet.

He smiled.

Tears streamed down his cheeks.

’Such a familiar feeling.’

’It seems I’ve found him.’

"Is it you?"

"My dearest friend, who reversed life and death for me."

"So you’re called the Wind Snow Sword Immortal!"

Looking at the stone tablet, he was laughing.

After nearly seven long years of searching, he had been looking all this time.

Now, he had finally found a clue.

"Tell me everything you know about the Wind Snow Sword Immortal!"

The disheveled Daoist, with a wave of his hand, captured a Great Demon Fiend and brought it before him.

The Great Demon Fiend was like an ant before him.

It wouldn’t dare be insolent. The demon recounted, in meticulous detail, everything their records said about the Wind Snow Sword Immortal.

"I see."

He was smiling.

"May I be so bold as to ask the Upper Immortal’s name?" the Great Demon Fiend asked, mustering its courage.

"My name is Yu Le!"

...

...

「Meanwhile.」

A lone figure walked past mountain ranges, crossed their final peak, and at last arrived at the shores of the Endless Sea. The place was steeped in Deathly Silence, devoid of any Vitality.

As far as the eye could see, there wasn’t a single ripple on the surface of the water.

And it was black.

It was as if the sea itself had died long ago, utterly bereft of life.

"So this is the Endless Sea."

"It’s my first time here."

Su Chen dipped his hand into the water. Expanding his senses, he felt nothing but an endless, biting cold.

As far as his vision extended, he could not detect a single flicker of Longevity Fire.

This was a land of Deathly Silence.

Not a shred of Vitality.

The Endless Sea!

This was the edge of the World in the Palm. The sea stretched to the horizon, yet it held not a single fish. Even the True Meaning of Heaven and Earth could not manifest here.

It was as if this place was beyond the jurisdiction of Heaven and Earth.

"In years past," Su Chen began, sitting cross-legged on a reef beside the Endless Sea.

"I once saved a trapped Immortal Whale..."

"He said,"

"’One day, after I ascend to become an Immortal, I could come to the edge of this Endless Sea to find him...’"

There was no response.

The sea before him was deathly silent.

Su Chen wasn’t in a hurry.

He just waited quietly.

Finally, the Endless Sea began to boil.

The Void trembled.

On the distant horizon, at the very edge of the Endless Sea, a terrifying, pitch-black Giant Whale slowly emerged. It came from beyond the World in the Palm, a swimmer in the Chaos, its eyes scarlet and savage.

"My clan’s foolish Young Master did indeed instruct me thus."

"So."

"Weak Human Cultivator, do you want me to take you away from this world sealed by Heaven and Earth?"

The pitch-black Giant Whale spoke slowly.

But in the next instant, it revealed its vicious fangs, opening its mouth to devour Su Chen.

"Such a pity!"

"I am no loyal servant who follows orders!"

"Surrender your flesh and blood to us! In return, we might consider sending you away... to another Human World! HAHAHAHA!"
