Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 912 - 458: Slaying the Human Race Traitors, Power of the Immortal Slaying Flying Saber

Indeed, traitors hide among these human cultivators.

Should I free them and those traitors launch a surprise assault, my fate could be sealed in disaster.

Even without the traitors making a move, they might still alert the demons to this development.

Then, swarms of demons would descend, trapping me completely.

Yet before Jiang Fan could ponder further, fresh fate hints surged into his awareness.

"Fate will give you hints."

"Fate hint one: Typically, a novice cultivator struggles to spot the traitors concealed among them, yet with your fate hint ability, you can uncover their real identities. In total, ten Refining Void traitors and one Integration traitor lurk here (click for specific information).

Prior to saving these human cultivators, strike first by wiping out these human traitors. The Forbidden Spirit Profound Demon Lock has sealed their cultivation, leaving them helpless against you. However, move swiftly and finish them in ten breaths, lest they send word out."

"Fate hint two: Simply removing the human traitors won't suffice. Though no demon prison guards seem present in this jail, a Divinity Transformation Demon with a hundred eyes actually lurks, blended into the walls, watching every action inside the prison.

This facility once held even stronger demon guards, but the fierce battles elsewhere pulled them away, leaving just this hundred-eyed demon at the Divinity Transformation Realm.

Convinced that the prison has stayed impregnable for ages and a short absence poses no risk, they've created your opportunity.

To avoid any slip-ups, deal with the hundred-eyed demon too, stopping news of the breakout from spreading, with the exact spot of the hundred-eyed demon (click to view)."

"Fate hint three: Though you've cleared the human traitors, slain the Divinity Transformation Demon, navigated many dangers, and freed these human cultivators, never forget your main aim: demolish the Cyan Stone Demon Cave.

Thus, after their rescue, depart at once toward the Demon Hall vicinity and bide your time, avoiding delays, since these human cultivators are cunning veterans who won't easily believe in you.

Naturally, their trust isn't required; just their escape to draw demon forces is enough. Stay clear of getting entangled too much with them."

As this knowledge flooded in, Jiang Fan's eyes narrowed sharply.

Clearly, infiltrating this prison undetected didn't make the mission straightforward, riddled as it was with hidden traps.

Small wonder it's a gamble of nine deaths to one survival.

Fail to neutralize every obstacle, and death here becomes all but certain.

"Even after saving them, they won't trust me?"

"Well, that makes sense, of course."

"These human cultivators at Refining Void and Integration stages have endured for endless years; easy trust isn't their way."

"Fortunately, no deep dealings with these cultivators are needed on my part."

"Their role in diverting the demons' focus will do just fine."

Jiang Fan clenched his fist tightly.

With that in mind, he turned his gaze to the hundred-eyed demon's position.

There, the demon embedded itself far into the walls, its eyes fused with the stone, exuding a profoundly wicked and ominous presence.

Without the fate hint, he would never have detected this hidden hundred-eyed demon.

Without question, rash actions would have exposed him straight to this hundred-eyed demon's sight.

In that case, countless demons would swarm to encircle him.

For freeing this group of human cultivators, taking down the hundred-eyed demon was essential.

Ideally, slay it in one swift strike, denying any counterattack.

Any other way, and his scheme would crumble.

"To take out this hundred-eyed demon in an instant, looks like the Immortal Slaying Flying Saber's power is my only option."

Jiang Fan pondered deeply, realizing that quietly eliminating the hundred-eyed demon without resistance demanded the Immortal Slaying Flying Saber's unique prowess.

After all, this treasure could fell immortals themselves, let alone a mere Divinity Transformation Demon.

Decided, he wasted no time, stirring the vast Primordial Magical Power inside him to charge the Immortal Slaying Flying Saber to full might.

In a flash, intricate runes cloaked the saber's edge, radiating a subtle luminescence, while a fearsome killing intent gathered at the tip, warping the nearby space.

Whoosh!

The instant after, Jiang Fan targeted the hundred-eyed demon's essence, sending the Immortal Slaying Flying Saber shooting forth as a brilliant white flash, streaking at impossible velocity.

"What's this?"

The hundred-eyed demon had been idly embedded in the wall, viewing its watch as a dull routine, unchanged after years of monotony.

Complacency had dulled its guard, certain no trouble would arise.

Yet suddenly, a fatal peril jolted it awake, hundreds of eyes snapping open to release surging demonic qi, seeking the threat's origin.

Regrettably, its response lagged too far behind.

Boom!

The flying saber lanced through one eye without delay—its core eye, the vital nexus.

Worse still, the Immortal Slaying Flying Saber unleashed a cataclysmic surge of ruin, propagating along the causal thread.
