The memories of all humanity are awakening, except for mine.

"what!"

"Who are you!"

The Bull Demon King was utterly shocked!
This unexpected person's strength was actually no less than his own!
Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun stared at this scene in disbelief.

A glimmer of hope welled up in my heart!
This person's strength was clearly far beyond their imagination.

"I said, weren't you going to send them on their way?"

The man closed his folding fan and looked at the Bull Demon King with a smile, "How about we get past me first before we talk about anything else?"

The Bull Demon King's face was ashen. He stared at the man, his eyes surging with murderous intent.

"Fine, since you want to die, I'll grant your wish!"

He roared and raised the iron rod high again, black lightning rolling around his body, preparing to unleash an even stronger attack!

The man, however, did not take it seriously.

He shrugged and smiled faintly, "Then let me see just how powerful your Hellfire Explosion really is."

"Who are you!?"

"I?"

"He's just a rogue cultivator, it doesn't matter, I'll tell you anyway."

"Tang Chun".

But the Bull Demon King snorted coldly, his attack already poised to strike.

That familiar, world-destroying aura swept in once again!

This surprised Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun.

Is this person any good...? They seem so unreliable...

Tang Chun remained calm and composed, as if everything was under his control.

"You old fox, all you do is scare people?"

Tang Chun's lips curled slightly, his words carrying a hint of mockery and contempt; he didn't take the Bull Demon King seriously at all.

"I thought you were something special, but it turns out you're nothing special."

"They just put on airs; to be honest, they look quite intimidating."

Upon hearing this, the Bull Demon King's rage intensified, and the Prison Thunder Explosion, which was originally poised to be unleashed, became even more violent due to Tang Chun's provocation.

"Ignorant brat, stop your arrogance!"

"Today I will show you my true power!"

He roared, and the black lightning around him instantly boiled, spinning wildly like an inky vortex.

It enveloped his entire body, and an extremely terrifying aura erupted from his body.

"Oh? It's evolved?"

Tang Chun glanced at the Bull Demon King's change, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

In a short moment, the Bull Demon King entered his peak state.

He grew taller and his muscles bulged. The iron rod in his hand was like a pillar that could shatter the sky. Demonic patterns flowed on it, and black lightning swirled around it.

It exudes a terrifying destructive power.

The Bull Demon King glared at Tang Chun and roared, "You arrogant fool, taste my true Hellfire Explosion!"

Upon seeing this, Tang Chun simply smiled.

He gently waved his folding fan, as if he were watching an exceptionally wonderful performance.

He said leisurely, "Bring it on."

"Let me see your so-called real power!"

"Oh, you're looking for death!"

Enraged, the Bull Demon King pointed his Iron Cudgel into the air, and the Prison Thunder Demon Explosion, condensed to its extreme, shot out like a black meteor, heading straight for Tang Chun!

It seemed as if only this terrifying torrent of energy remained in the world, carrying the momentum to tear through space, and instantly enveloped Tang Chun.

"Ha, let's see if you can escape now!"

Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun watched this scene with bated breath, their hearts filled with shock.

However, Tang Chun remained calm and composed in the face of such a powerful attack.

He lightly raised his folding fan and murmured something.

"Then, the game begins."

Then, with a flick of his wrist, the folding fan instantly transformed into a streak of light, meeting the oncoming Hellfire Explosion!
"boom--"

The two forces collided violently, and the resulting energy ripples swept across the land like a whirlwind, causing the earth to tremble and the vegetation to crumble.

Surprisingly, the seemingly frail folding fan actually managed to block the impact of the Hellfire Explosion.

The two remained locked in a stalemate in mid-air, neither gaining the upper hand.

The Bull Demon King's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.

He frantically channeled his demonic power, attempting to break the stalemate.

But no matter how hard he tried, the Hellfire Explosion could not advance even an inch further.

Tang Chun remained calm, as if this were just an ordinary matter.

He gently turned the folding fan, a playful smile playing on his lips.

"Hey, you old fox, shouldn't you consider changing your tactics?"

"I'm tired of seeing this move."

"It has no power at all."

Upon hearing this, the Bull Demon King was enraged, and his demonic power surged wildly as he vowed to crush Tang Chun into dust.

However, at that moment, Tang Chun gently waved his folding fan, and an invisible force instantly pierced through the Hell Thunder Demon Explosion, reaching straight for the Bull Demon King!
"what!"

The Bull Demon King exclaimed in surprise, feeling his demonic power become chaotic and uncontrollable.

His body swayed, and he was forced to retreat repeatedly by this force!

"You...what did you do?"

The Bull Demon King gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with disbelief.

He gripped the iron rod tightly, trying to steady himself.

But that strange power was like an invisible giant wave, constantly impacting the circulation of demonic energy within his body, preventing him from exerting his full strength.

Tang Chun smiled leisurely, gently waving his folding fan in his hand, as if admiring the Bull Demon King's current disheveled state.

"It's just a mere Wind Rune. It seems you're not as powerful as I imagined."

His tone was full of sarcasm, as if he were mocking a self-important child.

Just like when the Bull Demon King mocked Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun.

Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun exchanged bewildered glances, both shocked by Tang Chun's strength and methods.

They never imagined that he could so easily neutralize the Bull Demon King's moves, or even counter his powerful physical form!
Could this Tang Chun be some powerful being?
"you……"

The Bull Demon King was both angry and fearful.

He knew his own strength, yet he was easily suppressed by Tang Chun at this moment. This sense of defeat made him furious, but he was helpless.

"Don't rush, this is just the beginning."

Tang Chun narrowed his eyes slightly and gently pointed his folding fan at the Bull Demon King.

"Since you say you want to send them on their way, I'll give you a chance."

"If you can withstand three moves from me, I will let you go."

"If you can't hold on, then you should know the consequences."

"Isn't that fair?"

Tang Chun's words were calm as still water, but they exploded in the heart of the Bull Demon King like a bomb.

Upon hearing this, a hint of hesitation flashed in the eyes of the Bull Demon King.

But he seemed to have no choice but to agree.

"Alright, I'll take your three moves!"

Having said that, he once again activated his demonic power, his body surging with a blackish aura, and demonic patterns flowed across the iron rod, ready to strike.

"The first move."

Tang Chun smiled slightly and gently waved his folding fan.

In an instant, an invisible gust of wind, like a blade, sliced ​​through the air and headed straight for the Bull Demon King.

The Bull Demon King reacted quickly, wielding his iron cudgel to meet the attack.

However, the wind seemed to be able to anticipate his movements, flexibly turning and thrusting into his defense from the side, causing him to falter.

"Hiss... So powerful..."

Jiang Chuan murmured to himself.

"The second move."

Before the Bull Demon King could recover, Tang Chun waved his folding fan again.

This time, the wind transformed into countless tiny whirlwinds, swirling around the Bull Demon King.

It was as if countless sharp blades were cutting through his protective demonic power. The Bull Demon King groaned in pain as cracks appeared in his demonic power barrier.

His face was pale, and black sweat slid down his forehead.

"The last resort."

Tang Chun closed his folding fan, his gaze fixed on the Bull Demon King, his voice calm yet resolute.

With a flick of his finger, a golden light shot out from his fingertip and flew straight towards the Bull Demon King's heart.

Upon seeing this, a hint of despair flashed in the eyes of the Bull Demon King. He tried his best to avoid it, but found that he was already under the influence of that invisible wind force and could not move an inch!

"boom--"

The golden light struck the Bull Demon King precisely.

He let out a piercing scream.

His body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground.

The iron rod slipped from his hand and rolled to the side.

Tang Chun slowly walked towards the Bull Demon King lying on the ground, looked down at him, and said coldly, "I gave you three chances, but you were still useless!"

The Bull Demon King struggled to his feet, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, yet his eyes were filled with ferocity.

It was as if they wanted to burn all their resentment and anger into a final act of resistance.

He clenched his hands into fists.

The demonic power surged wildly, as if a madman had suddenly risen, stirring up the surrounding air and forming a powerful storm.

The severe injuries he had just suffered were being healed by this powerful demonic energy.

It healed slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The cracks on the skin gradually healed, the bloodstains faded, and that powerful vitality was rekindled.

Tang Chun stood aside, witnessing all of this, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes, and a cold smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

In his view, the Bull Demon King's actions at this moment were nothing short of a death throes, futile and laughable.

He knew that no matter how powerful the Bull Demon King was, he could not change his inevitable fate of defeat.

"Hmph, still trying to struggle?"

Tang Chun chuckled softly, his tone full of disdain and mockery towards the Bull Demon King.

Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun watched the Bull Demon King's changes with bated breath, their hearts filled with a mixture of worry and anticipation.

They thought the Bull Demon King would seize this opportunity to launch a final, desperate attack.

However, unexpectedly, the Bull Demon King did not choose to confront him head-on. Instead, he suddenly used the cover of the demonic energy storm to flash away and attempt to escape the scene.

"Ha, Grandpa's not playing with you anymore!"

The Bull Demon King left behind an arrogant taunt before his figure transformed into a black shadow and vanished from sight in an instant.

Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun stared in disbelief in the direction where the Bull Demon King had left.

They had expected the Bull Demon King to fight to the death, but he unexpectedly chose to flee the battlefield. This sudden turn of events left them at a loss.

However, Tang Chun maintained his calm and composed demeanor throughout, as if he had foreseen all of this.

He glanced down at the forgotten bud at his feet, picked it up casually, and played with it indifferently, as if picking his teeth.

"return."

Tang Chun uttered those two words softly, his voice calm yet firm, yet containing an irresistible power.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Bull Demon King, who had disappeared from sight, suddenly seemed to be bound by invisible shackles.

He was frozen in mid-air, his face filled with shock and panic, cold sweat streaming down his cheeks.

He stared wide-eyed at Tang Chun in the distance, as if he were witnessing the most unbelievable sight.

At the same time, Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun were also stunned by what they saw.

Their eyes widened, their mouths slightly agape, almost unable to believe their eyes.

They had never seen such incredible supernatural power, able to summon the fleeing Bull Demon King back in an instant with just a single sentence.

"Big brother...did you see that?"

"That kid is really good..."

Qingyun looked at Jiangchuan with an expression of admiration and said.

Jiang Chuan was also shocked by Tang Chun's strength.

Just that one sentence was enough to freeze the Bull Demon King in mid-air.

It really comes down to the difference in strength.

If I had the same strength as Tang Chun, wouldn't I be able to do it too?
"Yeah... I wish I were that strong."

Seeing this, Qingyun said, "Brother, they've been cultivating for so many years."

"I've only been following you for a short time, and you've already gone from the mid-stage of the Yellow Rank to the mid-stage of the Profound Rank."

"You're way more awesome than the average person."

Jiang Chuan scratched his head and chuckled, "Keep it low-key, keep it low-key."

"I'm not that awesome yet, you wait until I reach the Heavenly Rank."

……

Seeing this, Tang Chun's smile deepened.

He raised his hand and made a grasping motion in the air, as if he had grasped an invisible rope.

The hand slowly tightened, and the Bull Demon King's figure seemed to be pulled by an invisible force.

It was pulled back from the storm of demonic energy and crashed heavily to the ground with a dull thud.

"You...who are you?"

The Bull Demon King struggled to his feet, his terrified gaze fixed on Tang Chun, his voice trembling.

Tang Chun did not answer, but simply waved the tender bud in his hand.

That calm expression seemed to tell the Bull Demon King that all his struggles and resistance were in vain.

He turned to look at Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun, and nodded slightly, indicating that they didn't need to worry.

Jiang Chuan and Qing Yun watched Tang Chun's composed figure from behind, their shock lingering for a long time.

They knew full well that the mysterious man before them was no ordinary person.

"This...is amazing!" Jiang Chuan couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

"Yes... Brother, if it weren't for him, we probably wouldn't have been able to hold on for long."

Qingyun also looked on in shock.

"Can you see through his strength?"

"Ah... definitely not, brother."

"He's so much more powerful than the Bull Demon King, how could I possibly see through him? How could you?"

Qingyun shook his head.

Jiang Chuan also shook his head.

"I can't see through it..."

"Anyway, I know I'm definitely much better than you."

Qingyun's aura has now returned to the strength of the early stage of the Profound Rank.

"My Azure Scale Secret Technique can only temporarily enhance my strength. Who knew that even a Xuan-level Great Perfection cultivator couldn't defeat him?"

"So that means Tang Chun possesses at least the Earth Rank strength?"

"Maybe so. Judging from how easily he fought the Bull Demon King, he must be at least a mid-stage Earth Rank cultivator?"

"Or perhaps it's the late-stage Earth Rank..."

Jiang Chuan nodded slightly; this strength was simply too amazing.

When will I be able to be this awesome...?

"Is there something you need, Shen Jing?"

"It's nothing, Second Brother just ran out of spiritual energy."

"He was briefly unconscious, it's nothing serious, he'll be fine in a bit."

……

At this moment, the Bull Demon King was filled with fear and despair. He knew that he was powerless to resist and could only watch helplessly as the wheel of fate rolled over him.

He looked up at Tang Chun's cold eyes, his heart filled with endless regret and resentment.

"What...what exactly do you want?"

The Bull Demon King's voice trembled; he knew he could no longer escape Tang Chun's control.

Tang Chun did not answer, but smiled faintly and waved the tender bud in his hand gently, as if announcing the end of the battle.

The Bull Demon King could only tremble under that immense pressure, awaiting his impending judgment.

"Everything is up to me."

Tang Chun's calm words echoed in the air.

That cold and resolute voice, like a judge's pronouncement, sank the Bull Demon King's heart to the bottom. (End of Chapter)
