Sweeping Longtan, Building Up for a Breakthrough

Beyond Longtan Grand Commandery, in the Black Wind Ravine region.

A blood-reeking wind howled, demonic aura piercing the heavens.

A ferocious demon resembling a giant rat, its back bristling with bone spikes, let out an earth-shaking roar at the sky. Its vicious might, nearing the third level of the Dao Evolution Realm, churned the nearby mountain ravines until sand and stones flew!

Chen Chuan wore the black robes of a Yao Xuan Envoy, his face taut. Even his once neatly groomed hair lashed wildly in the gale.

The Bone-Melting Demonic Rat had occupied this place for many years and had long since earned a notorious name. Even the commandery governors of several surrounding commanderies, having left their territories and thus lost the support of their great seals, needed to discuss together a plan to kill it.

Against a demon of such imposing force, he would never have dared provoke it in the past.

What was more, this Bone-Melting Demonic Rat normally did not operate within Longtan territory. It only dared stir up trouble at the border between the two grand commanderies.

Yet today was clearly different from before—

Not only Chen Chuan, but the other three team members were breathing hard as well, staring fixedly at the massive ravine ahead, which radiated an alarming presence.

The Dao Evolution giant rat was constantly darting through the countless stone caves in the ravine. It utterly dared not confront the black-robed figure in the air, and every bone spike on its body seemed to reveal deep apprehension!

Unfortunately, heaven and earth within a hundred-mile radius had been completely sealed by some method. The barrier was so sturdy that, even after smashing itself until its head bled and its bone spikes shattered, it still could not escape!

Boom!!
