Cultivation Online novel Chapter 339

Chapter 339 - Key To Mystic Pagoda

*Crack*

*Pap*

Boom!

Grandma Lan used her tail like a whip, sending the demons flying whenever they tried to get close to her.

"Did you come here just to play around?! As if such weak attacks could kill us!" The demons would return to her no matter how many times they were sent flying by her tail.

However, Grandma Lan ignored them and continued to buy time for Yuan and Lan Yingying, as they were her only hope in killing them.

In the sky, Grandpa Lan and the Demon Lord also exchanged hundreds of blows with each other in just a few minutes.

"Old snake, you guys lost your chance to kill us off when that damn human failed to kill us hundreds of thousands of years ago! Even if your bloodline continues for many generations, you will never be able to defeat us!" The Demon Lord laughed out loud.

The demons were the oldest entities in the Mystic Realm, as they have survived for hundreds of thousands of years— even before the Lord became the master of the Mystic Realm. However, despite living for so long, their cultivation hasn’t improved by much, mostly because they can only grow so much with the limited amount of spiritual energy in the Mystic Realm, hence why they want to break out of the Mystic Realm so badly— so that they can continue to grow.

No matter how much time they’re given, if they do not have enough spiritual energy for a breakthrough, their cultivation will remain unchanging.

"Once we take care of your family, we’ll kill all of the humans in this damned world! Eventually, we’ll find a way to enter the Mystic Pagoda and open the seal that has locked us in this world for far too long!"

"Hahaha! You want to leave the Mystic Realm? In your dreams, Demon Lord! Even if you manage to kill all of us, you’ll never be able to enter the Mystic Pagoda! Do you know why? Because you don’t have the key! Hahaha!"

"Key? What are you talking about?!" The Demon Lord immediately frowned, as this is its first time hearing about a key being required to open the Mystic Realm.

"You want to know? Too bad! That’s as much as you’ll know about the Mystic Pagoda!" Grandpa Lan laughed.

In truth, Grandpa Lan didn’t know anything about the Mystic Pagoda, and he’d only mentioned a ’key’ just to mess with the Demon Lord.

Of course, the Demon Lord didn’t think it was being lied to as what Grandpa Lan said was quite logical.

"Tell me about this damn key!!!"

The Demon Lord roared, its aura increasing to a whole new level as it started getting serious.

"Make me!"

Grandpa Lan’s aura also rose.

When their auras collided, it created an immense pressure in the area that made the dead trees sink a little deeper into the ground.

Meanwhile, at Grandma Lan’s area, when the demons noticed the Demon Lord getting serious, they also turned serious.

"Looks like it’s about time we stop playing around and kill you once and for all."

The demons emitted an ominous aura that caused the dirt around them to turn black.

"Haha! What are you going to do with that sword—" The demon’s eyes widened with shock when it finally paid some attention to the Empyrean Overlord in Yuan’s grasp.

However, before it could even continue, Yuan stabbed the sword in-between its chest.

Meanwhile, the other demon that had its body sliced in half was turning into stone.

"Ahh! What is going on?! What is happening to my body?!" The demon cried out loud.

"T-This is—! A sealing technique?!" The second demon was shocked to see this, and it looked down at the sword in its chest with a fearful expression.

"D-Don’t tell me..."

Yuan didn’t say anything and pulled the sword out of its body, letting the petrifying effect spread throughout its body.

"You came back faster than I’d anticipated, young man, just like the first time." Grandma Lan said to him with a smile on her face.

"I’m sorry I couldn’t return faster," Yuan said.

"Fuck! My body! Why?! Why is someone from the Demon Sealing Clan here?! And that sword! You must be—!" The two demons looked at Yuan with fear in their eyes, something they haven’t experienced since the Lord left the Mystic Realm.

Meanwhile, in the air, the Demon Lord noticed something was amiss and turned to look at the ground where Yuan and the others were.

When it noticed Yuan and the Empyrean Overlord in his hands, the Demon Lord’s eyes widened with shock, and it roared in a spiteful voice, "That sword! Impossible! You— You have returned?!"
