I, a prison guard in the Heavenly Prison, secretly became invincible thanks to the system.

"Xi Yuan! You're dead!"

The old man wielding the knife laughed maniacally, then slashed with his long sword. His true energy was tinged with a faint blood red, greatly increasing both its power and speed.

After consuming the Dragon Transformation Pill, although they were initially somewhat unaccustomed to it, they quickly became lost in the surge of power and began fighting recklessly.

Upon seeing this, Yunlong and Yunkong were both trembling with anger.

"A bunch of heartless lunatics! Instead of being decent humans, you want to become half-demons! I'll wake you up right now!"

The two attacked with all their might, and unsurprisingly, they were blasted away by the three peerless masters.

They were just putting on an act before, but now they're genuinely no match for them.

The three peerless masters, transformed into half-demons, have increased their combat power by at least 50%, and the battlefield situation changes in an instant.

Xi Yuan smiled, a slight smirk playing on her lips.

"Finally eaten? Let me test just how powerful your half-demon bodies really are."

She activated her martial arts, and the water surface instantly formed a giant mirror. Water arrows shot out from the mirror, covering everything in their path and completely engulfing the three peerless masters.

In just a few breaths, blood splattered everywhere, and the three peerless masters let out a wail, all looking at Xi Yuan in disbelief.

"You've been hiding your true strength!"

"You're only realizing it now? If I hadn't wanted to turn you yourselves into half-demons, do you think you'd still be alive?"

Xi Yuan sneered, and the water mirror magnified again, this time shooting out thick water dragons that combined the power of flowing water, each one heading straight for the three vital points.

They fought back with all their might, but they still underestimated Xi Yuan's strength. Even their newly enhanced half-demon body was blasted with several bloody holes.

In an instant, all three were seriously injured.

They stared at each other in disbelief, their eyes filled with blankness.

"How could this be! We clearly consumed the Dragon Transformation Pill; we should be invincible at the eighth rank!"

The old man with the knife suddenly realized something and looked at Xi Yuan in shock: "You've broken through! You're a ninth-rank!"

This single sentence instantly plunged the bustling battlefield into deathly silence.

Everyone stared at Xi Yuan with their mouths agape, their expressions varied.

The ninth rank was an unattainable realm for everyone present.

Below the ninth rank, all are ants; once one enters the ninth rank, one's lifespan increases by 50 years, a transformative improvement.

Xi Yuan didn't say much, but simply released her aura completely.

In an instant, the island trembled, and the surrounding waters were filled with raging winds and huge waves. The moonlight fell and shone on Xi Yuan, as if an aura soaring straight into the sky was revealed.

Compared to this aura, everyone else's imposing presence seemed insignificant.

The battle between Lian Yunkuang and Shen Suifeng also stopped. The two looked at Xi Yuan's true strength, and their expressions were somewhat complicated.

Ye Kang also stared wide-eyed in place.

"This is... a Ninth-Rank Innate Realm cultivator!"

The severely injured Xiao Yuankui was also deathly pale, and he shouted frantically, "This is why you led the team to the deep waters to suppress the water bandits last time! You didn't go to suppress them at all, you went to break through your cultivation level! Such ruthless methods, such deep scheming... Fellow Daoist Sanjue, we have lost..."

Xiao Yuankui was like a deflated balloon, completely losing his will to fight.

Even the three peerless masters trembled, fear and resentment alternating on their faces.

"Damn it! Since you've already broken through, why go through all this trouble? You could have just killed us already!"

Xi Yuan shook her head dismissively: "No, how can you expect to obediently take the Dragon Transformation Pill if I don't push you to the brink? What I want to capture are human traitors who have already become half-demons, not a few weak martial artists."

Upon hearing this, the three peerless masters were so angry that they vomited blood.

"Very well! So you're using us as a reason for your promotion. As expected of a garrison commander, you've really gone to great lengths. But even so, we're not without the ability to fight!"

The three peerless masters attacked simultaneously, summoning their respective avatars in their half-demon forms and bombarding Xi Yuan relentlessly.

Xi Yuan neither dodged nor retreated; with a casual flick of her sleeve, the water transformed into a massive, thick wall, blocking the three's attacks.

She pointed forward again, and the water wall suddenly slammed down, slamming the three of them directly into the hill on Thousand Absolute Island.

Instant kill!

A guaranteed instant kill!

The three of them were simply not in the same league as Xi Yuan!

At this moment, all the disciples of the Thousand Absolutes Sect were filled with despair.

They shouted repeatedly.

"We surrender!"

"Don't kill me! I surrender! I'm innocent!"

"My lord, spare us! We really didn't know anything about it!"

Wailing cries filled the air as the half-demons laid down their weapons.

Meanwhile, in the mountain crevice, the three peerless masters, covered in blood from being slapped, had no strength left.

But they still didn't give up, and the madness in their eyes was so intense it was almost unbearable.

With his last ounce of strength, the old man wielding the knife let out a roar that shook the heavens and the earth.

"Senior! Aren't you going to help? If you don't save him today, no one will provide you with wives and concubines in the future!"

Ye Kang raised his head and listened to the roar. He clenched his fist and quietly retreated behind the crowd.

Not only him, but also the three Taoist priests, the masked people, Gu Changlin, the Yunhe Sect Leader and others, all silently retreated and cautiously gathered around the warship.

Shen Suifeng frowned, a guess forming in his mind. He sighed and joined the Qinglin Guards, standing beside Daoist Yun Kuang.

After realizing what the three peerless masters had done, the conflicted city lord finally made a choice.

Only Xiao Yuankui looked completely bewildered.

"Senior? You have helpers too! Is it really true!"

His face lit up with ecstasy. Just then, roars of beasts rang out from all directions. The waters of the great marsh surged like an earthquake, and countless fish fled in panic.

Two dark clouds obscured half the moonlight, and a few gusts of cold wind howled, silencing all other sounds.

Everyone looked around warily, and Ye Kang also activated his senses to the fullest extent.

Then he discovered that the surrounding waters had been occupied by swarms of aquatic beasts.

Driven by a certain will, countless aquatic demons surrounded the entire Thousand Absolute Island. At the same time, a soul-shaking voice resounded.

"What are you yelling about? You're not dead yet!"

The voice was extremely cold, like that of a weathered old man devoid of emotion, yet it was also filled with chilling intent, causing all the eighth-rank experts to tremble.

Everyone looked in shock into the distance; under the moonlight, only the surface of the water remained calm and still.

Slowly, an enormous black shadow suddenly rose up, revealing two eyes as large as ships.

It was a black dragon with a body over a hundred feet long!

蛟君

"coming!"

Master Yunlong's heart stirred, and memories of his youth flooded his mind.

He was absolutely certain that this was the same dragon king he had seen when he was a child!

Everyone else gaped in astonishment, and many of the weaker masked men and Thousand Absolutes Sect disciples nearly knelt down, their legs trembling.

"The Dragon King of Poyang! It's the Dragon King!"

"It really happened! The legend is true!"

Xiao Yuankui stared blankly, then looked at the three peerless masters who were unable to move with fear.

"You're all insane! You've lured the Dragon King here! He'll devour hundreds of thousands of people along the coast! My whole family will be eaten by him, you three lunatics!"

Countless expressions were displayed, but only one person's face showed a strange expression.

Ye Kang stared at the enormous dragon king and uttered a look of astonishment that came from the depths of his soul.

"Wow! Demons can talk!"
