Chapter 1084 Cutting out the roots
The sacred artifact 'Dawn' was released, living up to its name, like an unstoppable ray of light piercing the darkness.

The Demon Hammer was originally aggressive, with its huge lion head tearing and ramming left and right, not only to tear open this space, but also to find Dongfang Daqian and smash him into pieces.

That savage, all-consuming power, its indiscriminate attacks, if it were to escape, would plunge the entire capital into chaos and devastation.

Zhou You remained calm and composed as he observed the situation unfold, while Lian Feihong beside him looked somewhat tense.

He heard the other person ask, "Lord Nanchen, this guy is too fierce, can you keep him locked up?"

Suddenly, an endless sea of ​​fire descended, burning away the overwhelming destructive power of the Demon Hammer.

White flames, red flames, blue flames, and almost transparent flames danced, forming this rich and diverse sea of ​​fire.

If that's all there is to it, it's just an ordinary arson treasure, unable to suppress the Demon Hammer.

Because under the Lion's Head Hammer, even flames that have no physical form will be brutally smashed and reduced to ashes.

Thump, thump, thump, the drumbeat-like sound of hammers falling rang out one after another.

The demon hammer pierced through the sea of ​​fire again and again, and the shattered flames could not be restored. Even the surrounding firelight could not fill in the gaps, leaving large holes that looked like tattered cloth.

Dongfang Daqian appeared, his true form hovering above the Barbarian Demon Hammer, his hands clasped together, his fingertips blooming like flower petals.

"breaking Dawn!"

The two words that came out of his mouth were the name of the sacred artifact and also the title of that martial saint.

These two words are like a key, truly unlocking the terrifying power of this sacred artifact.

In an instant, the boundless sea of ​​fire suddenly receded, as if being blown upwards by millions of bellows.

Countless flames intertwined and coiled, transforming into a disc entwined with flame patterns, reflecting the silhouette of a person sitting cross-legged.

The figure merged with Dongfang Daqian's body, raised his hands, and threw a punch from a distance, which struck the lion's head hammer squarely.

This action involved physically confronting a demonic soldier of the highest rank.

The combined power of Dongfang Daqian's own cultivation level and the sacred artifact resulted in a burst of power that flattened the lion-headed hammer in an instant.

Demonic weapons, which transcend ordinary divine weapons, are terrifying in both hardness and destructive power.

If ordinary demonic weapons are already like this, then what about higher-level demonic weapons like those of the Lord level?

According to Zhou You's own testing, although the Heart Demon Ring is slightly less powerful, its level is not far from that of the Half-Saint Yin Blade.

The Barbarian Demon Hammer was a powerful demon weapon, yet it was flattened by Dongfang Daqian with a single punch in a head-on clash.

Everyone who witnessed this scene instantly realized the power of the sacred artifact; the combination of the Martial Saint's descendant and the sacred artifact was like adding wings to a tiger.

The figure of Dongfang Daqian, with his overlapping flaming oval disc, punched the flattened lion-head hammer, his momentum unstoppable, and struck the body of the Barbarian Demon Hammer Master squarely.

At this moment, many people said with satisfaction, "You used to smash people as easily as cracking walnuts, but now you've been hit by your own hammer. I wonder how that feels?"
The Demon Hammer didn't taste good; he was injured.

Dongfang Daqian's attack was far beyond his limits, not only severely injuring the powerful demonic weapon, but also rupturing his internal organs.

The Demon Hammer coughed up several more pieces of internal organs, and his next reaction caught even Dongfang Daqian off guard.

The Demon Hammer opened its mouth and swallowed, not to bite, but to take the flattened lion-head hammer into its mouth.

His Adam's apple bobbed, and he swallowed the male-level demonic weapon with a gulp.

What is the purpose of this iron lump that you can't digest even if you eat it?
Zhou You thought to himself, "Could it be..."

The Demon Hammer emitted ferocious demonic energy from its seven orifices, its facial features and skull protruded and writhed like fists, and its hair grew wildly.

After a few breaths, his head completely transformed into a lion's head, as if a lion's head hammer had been transplanted onto his neck. The lion's head opened its blood-red eyes and roared, the roar piercing through the barrier of this space.

At the same time, in every corner of the capital, regardless of social status or whether they were awake or dreaming, almost simultaneously, everyone heard that heart-wrenching lion's roar.

He's going all out, using every trick in the book.

The outline of Dongfang Daqian became blurred, and the figure that was originally superimposed on the body showed signs of separating. The flaming oval disc formed by the sacred artifact was about to fall.

He knew it would be too late if he didn't fight now, so he acted decisively.

"My heart is ablaze with anger, and all hope is lost!"

He clenched his fists and unleashed a powerful attack, instantly merging with the figure. The intense heat struck the Demon Hammer, and the lion's head showed a hint of pain.

The next moment, the Demon Hammer shattered into pieces, flying in all directions.

However, Dongfang Daqian was quick-witted and nimble, and countless flames were distributed in the surrounding high sky, like a large net that could be rolled up and scooped up.

All the fragments shattered by the Demon Hammer were trapped inside, leaving no possibility of escape.

"Great!"

Zhou You sincerely said that even if he wielded the Half-Saint Yin Blade, he would not be a match for Dongfang Daqian if he did not activate the Heart Demon Ring.

Just now, Dongfang Daqian's combined strength with the sacred artifact had reached a level infinitely close to the threshold of Martial Saint, and conservatively speaking, he was invincible at that time.

But was Barbarian Hammer really dead at that time?
Zhou You watched as the flames consumed the mangled remains, the flesh charred, and the metal fragments repeatedly melted from the heat...

In the circular world, the Heart Demon Ring took a step forward. "Outsiders may not know, but those from Demon Soldier Village all know that the Barbarian Demon Hammer is also a pair, male and female, known as coexisting in prosperity and decay."

"When the male lion is active, the female lion is asleep, and vice versa. Therefore, to destroy the Demon Hammer, both the male and female lions must be killed. Otherwise, it will surely make a comeback in time."

"Now that the male lion is dead, it's time for the female lion to make her appearance!"

He looked in a certain direction and said, “Although male and female are different, they are one. I gave you a set of chainmail a while ago, and you really thought it was for venting your anger.”

He lightly touched the void with his fingertip, scattering countless tiny halos of light that flew away like fireflies in the dark night.

A place no one would have expected.

Suddenly, a lion-headed monster emerged from the ruins of the former Mujie Mansion in Jingzhou, roared angrily towards the capital, and then turned and fled.

It was too dangerous. If it weren't for the unique structure of this demonic weapon, he would have been reduced to ashes long ago.

Fortunately, there is still a chance to make a comeback. Once they slaughter a million people in other places, they can recover their strength.

Just as the stone lion-headed monster spread its limbs, it suddenly became extremely heavy. The halos that emerged from its skin were incredibly heavy, as if small mountains were pressing down on it.

It rushed forward for a hundred feet, then plummeted diagonally to the ground from the sky, slid and sank deep into the mud, gradually becoming unable to move.

"Heart...Demon...Ring!"

Three words, uttered from the ferocious, enraged lion's head, were filled with deep-seated hatred: "Do you truly intend to slaughter them all?"

His response was a falling ring that shattered the lion's head and then twisted and smashed the entire body to pieces.

Thus, the Barbarian Hammer truly fell, becoming the third victim of the Heart Demon Ring.

Zhou You, far away in Beijing, smiled and thought, "It's done!"
Go with the flow, keep a low profile, let Dongfang Daqian take the lead while he quietly makes a fortune, and everyone benefits.
