Chapter 846 - 847: Enemy Discovered
Lin Kuang continued forward, his sharp eyes carefully scrutinizing the surroundings, his strong perception monitoring everything within a mile radius.
After running for nearly half an hour, Lin Kuang’s speed abruptly decreased, and he crouched low on the ice field.
"Heaven rewards diligence, after such a long time, I finally found a silhouette."
Lin Kuang mused to himself.
At a distance of less than five hundred meters from Lin Kuang, a human dressed in silver was lurking on the ice, and if it weren’t for Lin Kuang’s powerful perception detecting the presence, it would have been difficult to spot this person who was almost one with the ice.
"This place is wide open, without any cover. Even if I don’t attack, I might get exposed."
Lin Kuang thought with a frown.
Moreover, Lin Kuang could feel that the opponent’s strength was not weak, at least on par with the Black Demon King.
"If discovered, then so be it. I’ll capture him first."
Lin Kuang thought to himself.
In the next moment, Lin Kuang jumped up without hesitation, employing the Extreme Shadow Illusion, greatly increasing his speed.
At the same time, the secret technique Fleeting Light and Shadow was instantly activated, making his already swift speed soar further in an instant.
The five hundred meters were too close for Lin Kuang, and within a breath, he was in front of the opponent’s eyes.
Only then did the Silver Demon Guard realize Lin Kuang’s approach.
"So fast!"
The Silver Demon Guard thought, instinctively retreating to avoid mortal danger.
At that moment, a flash of black light shot out from Lin Kuang’s body, piercing the Silver Demon Guard’s thigh directly.
In a blink, the Silver Demon Guard’s face changed drastically, and he fell to the ground with a thud.
"What was that just now?"
The fallen Silver Demon Guard thought blankly, the black light was too fast for him to avoid.
That black light was none other than the Black Dragon Sword from within Lin Kuang.
Seeing the Silver Demon Guard collapse, Lin Kuang acted swiftly, sealing off all of the guard’s True Qi in an instant.
After doing this, Lin Kuang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This Silver Demon Guard was rather unfortunate; he had hoped to dodge Lin Kuang’s attack and relay the message to his companions, but now he couldn’t even send a message.
After all, his True Qi had been completely sealed by Lin Kuang, leaving him unable to convey any message.
"Who are you? Where is the Demon Lord?"
Looking at the subdued Silver Demon Guard, Lin Kuang asked calmly.
In response, the guard’s lips remained tightly shut, refusing to speak or even look at Lin Kuang.
At this, Lin Kuang sneered: "Very brave, I hope you never speak."
Saying so, Lin Kuang silenced the guard’s voice, causing the guard to feel extremely uneasy.
A pair of uneasy eyes watched Lin Kuang, but Lin Kuang ignored him, starting to perform the Bone-dislocating Hand on his body.
It had been some time since Lin Kuang last used the Bone-dislocating Hand, and it felt rather satisfying now.
Yes, Lin Kuang found it pleasing, but for the Silver Demon Guard, it was painful enough to provoke the thought of suicide.
His body convulsed, his face twisted, and his eyes were filled with terror.
Lin Kuang continued, using the Bone-dislocating Hand as if treating the Silver Demon Guard like a doll.
Eventually, the Silver Demon Guard could not bear it anymore, sweat beading densely on his forehead, his entire being seemed on the brink of collapse.
Pleadingly, he gazed at Lin Kuang, his eyes begging for mercy, but as unfortunate as it was, he was unable to speak, only able to plead with his eyes.
However, Lin Kuang paid him no mind, driving the Silver Demon Guard to the brink of collapse.
Finally, seeing that the guard really couldn’t take it anymore, Lin Kuang released his grasp, also restoring the guard’s ability to speak.
The Silver Demon Guard gasped for air, as if having returned from the underworld, drenched in cold sweat, his chest soaking wet.
"Will you talk now?"
Looking at the guard, Lin Kuang asked with a smile.
"Yes, yes, I will talk; I will say everything, anything you want."
The Silver Demon Guard gasped, fear on his face; he was really terrified.
"That’s more like it. If you’d been this obedient earlier, you could have avoided all this suffering. You’re truly stubborn."
Lin Kuang shook his head and sighed, causing the Silver Demon Guard not to dare utter another word.
"Alright, let me ask you, who are you?"
Looking at the Silver Demon Guard, Lin Kuang asked calmly.
"I am one of the twelve Silver Demon Guards."
The Silver Demon Guard responded.
"Oh? So you’re a Silver Demon Guard? No wonder you’re so strong, turns out you’re a Silver Demon Guard.
Where are the remaining Silver Demon Guards? Where is your Silver Demon King? Where is the Demon Lord?"
After a moment’s thought, Lin Kuang asked again.
"The remaining Silver Demon Guards are also ambushed around here, and the Silver Demon King is here as well.
As for the Demon Lord, he is inside that massive ice field at the back."
The Silver Demon Guard spoke honestly, unable to resist due to the pain of the Bone-dislocating Hand, which was beyond human endurance.
Hearing the words, Lin Kuang nodded: "I see.
Let me ask you again, what are you all hiding here for?"
"The Silver Demon King instructed us to monitor all movements here, and we must report any strangers like you to the Demon Lord.
According to our Demon King’s instructions, this was ordered by the Demon Lord as well."
Upon Lin Kuang’s question, the Silver Demon Guard responded honestly.
Hearing this, Lin Kuang couldn’t help but frown, as it seemed the Demon Lord already knew of their arrival.
If the Demon Lord knew, then there might be a traitor in their team, or perhaps someone within the Demon Sect in the country discovered the actions of the Ancient Martial Realm, informing the Demon Lord.
"It seems the Demon Lord knows no matter what, and if he knows but hasn’t acted, then there’s a high possibility he’s at a critical point in his cultivation!
It appears we must stop him, and under no circumstances allow him to breakthrough!"
With this realization, Lin Kuang’s eyes became sharp.
"Very well, last question, where exactly in the ice field is the Demon Lord?"
Looking at the Silver Demon Guard before him, Lin Kuang asked the final question.
"The Demon Lord’s cultivation chamber is in the center of the ice field. You’ll find him there."
The Silver Demon Guard replied to Lin Kuang.
Hearing this, Lin Kuang nodded with a smile: "Good, thank you for the information.
Rest assured, I won’t torture you anymore; I’ll let you depart peacefully."
Saying this, Lin Kuang raised his palm and struck the Silver Demon Guard’s heart forcefully, shattering it.
