Chapter 1238: Autopilot Mode

An Lin continued downward on Da Bai’s back.

Everything around them was a vast expanse of inky darkness, so he could only use his divine sense to survey his surroundings.

“Phew… I feel really good here.”

Little Xie narrowed her large eyes in enjoyment.

“Do you like dark places, Little Xie?” An Lin recalled that she was also quite excited in the Dead Spirit Demonic Land. If there was something in common between the Dead Spirit Demonic Land and the Abyss of Evil, then it had to be the fact that they were both extremely dark places.

Little Xie thought carefully about this for a moment before replying, “I’m sure it’s not because of that.

“But at the same time, I’m not sure what it is I enjoy about places like this. Perhaps it’s the sense of peril and eeriness present in the air, or perhaps the energy particles floating through the darkness?”

Just as they were speaking, a dark shadow suddenly sprang from the darkness at an extremely fast speed toward An Lin! Its lethal claws slashed through the air with unbridled killing intent.

This was a surprise attack from a sinister devil!

Da Bai hadn’t even made a move when Little Xie summoned the Evil-Slaying Sword before springing toward their sinister devil assailant and instantly puncturing its chest.

“Howl… !” the sinister devil let loose a bloodcurdling cry before its body quickly disintegrated.

A peculiar energy suddenly appeared on the Evil-Slaying Sword before gradually being absorbed.

Little Xie’s cheeks became flushed as her eyes lit up.

“I want more…” she spoke with excitement on her face.

An Lin was surprised to see this. “Little Xie, you can increase your power by killing sinister devils?”

Little Xie stroked the blade of her sword with a faint smile on her face. “This is something I discovered after nurturing my spirit. I think I know how I’m going to progress to become a divine tool now…”

Little Xie then went on a horrific killing spree in the Abyss of Evil.

Boom boom boom…

Her sword intent surged through the air as monstrous sword projections tore open the space around them.

The adorable little girl had suddenly become a goddess of slaughter.

Mutant beasts and sinister devils alike were struck by a cataclysmic disaster.

An Lin rode along on Da Bai’s back in autopilot mode. All of the living beings that held hostility toward them were slain by Little Xie without any exceptions.

“I feel like our trip to the Abyss of Evil has suddenly become a lot more relaxing, woof!” Da Bai spoke.

An Lin chomped on a spirit fruit as he smiled within the darkness. “Little Xie is awesome! She’s like a female Demon King in a place like this!”

Little Xie decapitated a demonic dragon before turning to look at An Lin with a cold expression. “Female Demon King? What a hideous title! Please call me Queen or Your Majesty!”

An Lin: “…”

Wasn’t it a little weird to refer to an adorable little girl as a Queen?!

However, he suddenly thought of that little girl a few years ago who had placed her crown upon his head…

Hmm… It didn’t seem all that weird now all of a sudden!

As they continued onward, the frequency of sinister devil encounters began to increase, and the mutant beasts that were attacking them were becoming more and more powerful.

However, An Lin didn’t have to fight any of them.

No matter how fearsome the mutant beasts and sinister devils were, Little Xie could take care of them with ease.

“I’m so envious of you, Big Brother An. Even your sword can fight in your stead, and she’s so powerful too… I feel like we’re taking a stroll in our own backyard, woof!” Da Bai sighed with emotion as he looked on at the invincible Little Xie.

“I’m not trying to boast, but Little Xie’s power is second only to mine. All of these trash sinister devils and mutant beasts are just delivering sustenance to her.” An Lin chuckled.

What a relaxing trip!

All he had to do was sit on Da Bai’s back and enjoy the fruits of Little Xie’s efforts.

Little Xie led the way, so he didn’t have to do anything.

What a satisfying feeling!

Little Xie was not interested in any of the treasures they encountered along the way, so An Lin took all of them. Occasionally, he would reward Da Bai with the spirit fruits they came across in order to share the fun!

The Abyss of Evil was a twisted and convoluted place, but An Lin and the others were progressing through it quite quickly. Regardless of what monsters, demons, sinister devils, or ferocious beasts they encountered, all of them were insta-killed by Little Xie.

Little Xie could even take care of the slaughter formations, illusionary formations, and poisonous realms with a slash of her sword!

Twenty hours later.

Within a certain crack.

All of the sinister devil powerful beings were cowering away as they trembled uncontrollably.

All of them were extremely powerful sinister devils within the Abyss of Evil, possessing power comparable to powerful beings at the pinnacle of the Soul Formation Stage.

“Gasp… How terrifying! Just who is that little girl?”

“The Resentful Poison King didn’t even finish its sentence before it was slain by that little girl!”

“Thank God you guys notified me in time. Otherwise, I was about to go and try to devour that delectable dog.”

“We’re no match for them. Let’s lie low for now, and hope that they’ll be on their way soon. From the direction they’re progressing in, it appears they’re traveling toward Master Dark Demon’s territory… ”

“Haha, they’re running to their deaths then! Master Dark Demon is an Emperor-like character within the Abyss of Evil. All those who have tried to encroach upon Master Dark Demon’s territory had been horrifically slain with no exceptions!”

“They’re going to pay the ultimate price for their ignorance and arrogance.”

“Should we follow them and spectate their deaths?”

“Oh, that’s a good idea! Let’s all go together…”

In a place where countless lost souls roamed.

Ghosts and demons wept and howled as boundless negative emotions hung in the air.

Darkness, depravity, violence, pain, despair…

A twisted yet substantial sinister devil with a wingspan in excess of a hundred meters dwelled here. It wore layers of dark armor over its body, and its malicious, dark blue eyes stared directly ahead with unbridled ferocity.

“Roar!” it let loose an almighty roar.

It unleashed a spatial seal along with demonic energy powerful enough to drive weaker cultivators insane in the blink of an eye!

“I am the Dark Demon, the Emperor of Abyss of Evil who rules over the sinister devils! All those who encroach upon my territory must die!”

It slashed its claws through the air as it spoke.

Inky-black claws projections imbued with the power of depravity swept through the air like lightning. Countless ghosts sobbed and howled as the claw projections erupted forth with unstoppable force, corroding and melting all of the rock formations in its path.

It was also at this moment that a little girl wielding a black sword hurtled toward it.

“Evil Sword Technique, Soul Crushing Strike!”

A light flashed from the Evil-Slaying Sword, and space was severed as the Dark Demon’s claw projections were instantly pulverized!

“What?!” An expression of shock and horror appeared on the Dark Demon’s face.

However, before it even had a chance to react, the inky-black blade of the sword had already sliced cleanly through its body.

The lake behind it was sliced in half, and a bottomless fissure was created in the rock face.

There was nothing that could stop this sword strike!

Little Xie slowly sheathed her sword before speaking in a cold voice, “Trash like you dares to call itself Emperor?”

“Ah…!”

The Dark Demon let loose a final bloodcurdling cry, and its body inflated before violently exploding!

Countless particles of black energy flowed into the Evil-Slaying Sword.

The flush on Little Xie’s face deepened, as if she were inebriated.

“The energy isn’t very powerful, but there’s a lot of it and it’s quite pure… Sinister devils of this level aren’t bad. An Lin, I want more…”

Little Xie’s eyes were a little glazed as she turned around to look at An Lin.

An Lin pinched her round cheeks with a dark expression. “Do you think Return to Void Stage sinister devils are as common as a cabbage? Everything will have to come down to luck. If worse comes to worst, we’ll just have to explore this place in more detail.”

An Lin and Little Xie continued onward.

Within the darkness, all of the spectating sinister devils had completely sh*t themselves.

The most powerful sinister devil among them had just been insta-killed by that little girl!

The events that had unfolded before the sinister devils’ eyes were completely beyond their imaginations. The insurmountable gap in power struck indescribably horror into their hearts for the first time.

“Who the hell is that little girl?!”

“Terrifying, absolutely terrifying!”

“Did he just say they were going to explore this place in more detail…”

“Holy f*ck! What are we still doing here? Run!”

All of the sinister devils scurried away in fear.
