Money earned in a poor country, no matter how wealthy you are, will be instantly submerged like a ripple if taken to a wealthy country, unable to even buy a house.
The reason human cultivators are suppressed by these Asuras is that the Asura Hell directly lowers their power level. Thus, even if the Asuras are not particularly strong, humans cannot resist them.
However, Ning Beichen's power was not suppressed, possibly because he came from the outside world, or perhaps it was related to the cultivation technique he practiced, and so on.
Gao Chengping, following behind Ning Beichen, was filled with excitement seeing Ning Beichen display his might before the royal city, making him even more glad about his decision.
"Daughter of the Asura, come out!"
Ning Beichen drew his bronze ancient sword and slashed it towards the yet-undestroyed city walls of the royal city.
With a whoosh, the remaining city walls, under the attack of the bronze ancient sword's glow, shattered like tofu.
"Audacious human, guards, kill him!"
A majestic voice echoed from within the royal city. A large number of Asuras rushed out, led by a six-armed Asura, and began to attack Ning Beichen.
Seeing so many Asuras, Gao Chengping, instead of fleeing, rushed forward with renewed courage, ready to die alongside Ning Beichen.
However, his strength was suppressed, equivalent to that of a common four-armed Asura. Even with no fear of death, he could only fight one or two four-armed Asuras at a time.
But these Asuras gravely underestimated Ning Beichen's strength, assuming he, like other human cultivators in the Xidu world, was also suppressed.
They soon paid the price. Ning Beichen, wielding the bronze ancient sword, fought like a god of slaughter, causing the Asuras to cry out in agony as they met their deaths.
Since the Asuras treated humans in such a manner, Ning Beichen showed them no mercy. He unleashed powerful attacks, cutting down the Asuras in swathes like mowing grass.
Seeing this, the six-armed Asura transformed its six arms into fists and launched a fierce assault on Ning Beichen.
However, Ning Beichen had dealt with six-armed Asuras before, so fighting one was not difficult for him.
Soon, the six-armed Asura, unable to unleash any powerful attacks, was easily slain by Ning Beichen with the bronze ancient sword.
With the death of the six-armed Asura, the lower-ranking Asuras became fearful. Although they were Asuras, it did not mean they did not fear death. All living beings dread death.
"Slash!"
Ning Beichen wielded the bronze ancient sword and struck the royal city. An arc of sword light sliced through several tall buildings, sending the Asuras inside fleeing in terror.
Ning Beichen then stormed into the royal city, his three-foot sword a whirlwind of blood and chaos, unstoppable.
Gao Chengping followed closely behind Ning Beichen, his heart pounding with excitement. Ever since the Xidu world fell, humans had been oppressed and bullied by the Asuras. Never had they experienced such a cathartic moment.
For Gao Chengping, even if he were to die at that moment, he would have no regrets.
Suddenly, Ning Beichen grunted, his steps faltering. A bloody wound appeared on his back, yet he could see no enemy.
Moreover, Ning Beichen was absolutely certain this was not a ranged attack.
Just then, another wound appeared on Ning Beichen's leg, blood oozing out, causing him to nearly collapse.
"Senior, be careful, it's a Rakshasa, she can turn invisible."
Gao Chengping shouted urgently from behind.
Before Gao Chengping could finish speaking, a wound appeared on his own body, nearly disemboweling him.
At this moment, Ning Beichen had calmed down and activated his divine eyes.
His eyes had been ineffective outside the Avici Hell, but that did not mean they were useless inside.
Indeed, as soon as Ning Beichen activated his eyes, he saw a petite and ugly Rakshasa holding two knives, appearing ghost-like behind him, seemingly intending to repeat her attack.
However, this Rakshasa did not know Ning Beichen had seen her. As she attacked him, Ning Beichen nimbly dodged and slashed at her with his sword.
The Rakshasa let out a scream, but her speed was remarkable. She avoided a fatal blow and instantly vanished.
Ning Beichen remained still. After a moment, he saw the Rakshasa reappear to his right.
The Rakshasa did not attack immediately but observed if Ning Beichen could still detect her.
When invisible, even Asuras could not see her, so she was unsure if Ning Beichen's previous attack was a coincidence or if he could truly see her.
Ning Beichen remained composed, not attacking her, but preparing to deliver a thunderous blow the moment she made her move.
Thus, both were playing a game of cat and mouse, waiting for the other to lose their composure.
The Rakshasa made several probing attempts, even appearing directly in front of Ning Beichen once. But seeing Ning Beichen's lack of reaction, her heart began to calm.
It seemed Ning Beichen injuring her before was merely an accident, as even she found it unbelievable that a human could see her.
"Human, die!"
The Rakshasa reappeared behind Ning Beichen. This time, she discarded her weapons and used her claws.
Her claws were far more formidable than any weapon, and her nails were laced with a potent poison. A scratch from her, without her antidote, meant certain death!
The Rakshasa's dark, sharp fingers clawed towards Ning Beichen's back. In her eyes, this human was doomed, beyond anyone's salvation.
Just as the Rakshasa's fingers were about to strike Ning Beichen's back, a dazzling sword light appeared.
The Rakshasa sensed danger immediately and tried to retract her hand.
But it was too late. The sword light had already landed on her arm.
With a swish!
The Rakshasa let out a piercing scream as both her hands were severed by the sword light.
Before the Rakshasa could escape, the bronze ancient sword, after cutting off her hands, suddenly curved and pierced through her body, pinning her fiercely to the wall, thus revealing her presence.
The Rakshasa emitted a tragic cry, her ugly face contorted. After a brief struggle, her head drooped, and she was dead.
Even so, Ning Beichen, wary of any possibility of her resurrection, coldly chopped her corpse into several pieces with the bronze ancient sword before finally sheathing it with a sense of relief.
