Instead, he saw something hundreds of meters away—corpse of a Giant Demon in the distance, a person’s corpse nearby.
Clack!
Luo Boping jumped straight down the stone pillar.
Within ten breaths reached the corpse.
The closer he approached, the slower Luo Boping’s paces became.
"This..."
Looming closer, the scene of the Fierce Demon lying in a pool of blood came into view.
How did he die?
Could it be someone stronger entered the Bright Land Trial?
With these doubts, Luo Boping squatted down, his gaze falling on the bloody hole in his chest.
He pulled open the clothing to see the flat wound!
Sword wound!
"Fierce Demon was killed with a single sword strike?"
He believed the Fierce Demon would eventually die; being arrogant without any allegiance and impossible to live long. But to die so tragically, all because of a single sword strike was inconceivable. Take note, both Fierce Demon and he are Purity Body Perfection.
This was also someone’s arrogance, one of the Fierce Demon’s confidence at Bright Mirror Lake.
Purity Body Perfection, irrelevant in the same realm, poses no threat to his body; similarly, not every weapon can hurt his flesh.
Purity Body Perfection, may seem fragile to true strongmen.
But isn’t this too vulnerably fragile?
Done with one sword?
Looking around, Luo Boping was stunned.
No traces of battle?
Unlikely, in Divine Profound battles, not to mention crashing down the Secret Realm, but at least causing destruction making a thousand meters a wasteland. But now, at the Fierce Demon’s death spot, not even a few blades of grass were broken. Seeing this, an image formed—of a flying sword in the sky.
"Could it be someone from that sect killed him?"
Although questioning, the answer was already within him.
If not for that sword technique, how would a Divine Profound fall so quietly?
He put away the Meridian Gate, carried the Fierce Demon’s corpse out of the Secret Realm; when the Fierce Demon’s body was thrown before everyone, they laughed.
No one mourned the rule-breaker’s death.
Luo Boping immediately glanced coldly at the crowd and declared loudly, "Fierce Demon violated Bright Mirror Lake rules, already killed by me. If anyone dares to do likewise, I’ll show no mercy!"
"Luo Chief is joking, we wouldn’t dare such a thing."
"Indeed, we might have intent but lack the courage."
Fierce Demon is dead, who dares to do the same.
Unless someone claims to surpass both Fierce Demon and Luo Boping.
But among these, few possess that ability.
Those capable enough upon seeing Fierce Demon’s body don’t believe Luo Boping killed him. Luo Boping has Earth Attribute Anomalous Vein, to kill the Fierce Demon, must be by crushing, squeezing to death, how could only leave one wound and sword wound at that? People knew Luo Boping doesn’t practice Swordsmanship!
However, no one questioned Luo Boping what actually happened at this moment.
At this moment Luo Boping spoke, "The Image Bug has been released again, everyone return watching the Trial."
Trial still continues for many days.
Waiting here was only the option after losing images.
With images, no one wished to wait here, and they all left.
Once they left, those with strength to challenge Luo Boping surrounded him, asking what happened.
Luo Boping spoke truthfully; all the dozen inquiries, including those under him, were stunned.
"Was it truly the flying sword that killed him?"
"Indeed, otherwise Fierce Demon wouldn’t die so cleanly... Just one sword to life. To have this strength, minimally Divine Profound Upper Realm, yet within that realm, would anyone start against him as a madman? That only leaves one possibility, that sect behind, killing the Fierce Demon intent on seizing secret treasure."
Luo Boping’s deep tone left everyone’s faces solidified.
Returning to watch the Trial, mind already absent.
Only remembering that sect, the clothes, and that flying Swordsmanship image from the sky.
As for any secret treasure matter, no one dared think further.
They were merely curious why that formidable sect pursued Bright Mirror Lake’s Bright Land object?
