When I woke up, I wanted to go home.

Deep within that vast, dark, and endless army of demonic beasts, filled with billowing demonic energy, it seemed as if an evil force from ancient times was stirring.

Suddenly, an ancient and hoarse voice, like the cry of an owl, rang out: "Hahahaha... Humans, as insignificant as ants, do not know how high the sky is or how thick the earth is! If you know what's good for you, quickly submit to this demon lord, and perhaps I will spare your lives!"

These threatening and contemptuous words echoed in the air, sending chills down one's spine.

However, King Rai Xun, standing at the front of the human camp, showed no fear. He exuded an aura as powerful as an unshakeable mountain.

He stood tall and proud, his eyes fixed on the unknown darkness, and shouted back, "Hmph! You wretched demon lord, have you forgotten the painful experience of being frozen for a thousand years by my human ancestors with their supreme divine power?"

Now, you are nothing but a wretched creature clinging to life. What right do you have to make our human race bow down and submit to you?

It's just a foolish dream!"

King Rai Xun's response was like a heavy hammer blow to the heart of the demon lord hiding in the shadows.

Faced with such a tough stance, the demon lord seemed to be enraged, and the surrounding demonic energy surged even more violently.

But King Rai Xun remained unmoved and continued to shout, "Since you don't have the guts to show yourself, then don't blame me for being impolite!"

Today, I will personally drag you out of this cowardly place and let you taste defeat once again! Before the words were finished, King Lai Xun had already raised the sword in his hand and roared, "Sword of the King!"

A sword beam, as long as a rainbow piercing the sun, streaked across the sky like a meteor, hurtling towards the dark, billowing demonic energy deep within the vast ice and snow plains.

When the sword light fell into the rolling demonic energy like a dragon entering the water, the demon lord did not appear. Instead, two emperor-level demonic beasts rushed out from the demonic energy and blocked King Lai Xun's sword light like two mountains.

Seeing this, King Lai Xun shouted to the ten Emperor-level experts behind him, "Please lend me a hand!"

After King Lai Xun finished speaking, the ten elders of the Shadow Legion, like a group of perfectly synchronized dancers, used an exquisite combined attack technique to continuously inject all their spiritual power into King Lai Xun's body!

King Lai Xun's body was nearly bursting under the surge of spiritual power. His eyes widened in fury as he roared, "Man and sword become one!"

A massive sword beam, nearly ten thousand feet long, descended slowly from the void like a roaring dragon, heading straight for the billowing demonic energy!

Seeing the ten-thousand-foot sword light hurtling towards them like Mount Tai crushing an egg, a furious roar came from the depths of the demonic energy, as if thunder had exploded: "Do you really think I'm so easy to bully?"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a gigantic claw, a thousand feet in size and as large as a cloak of the sky, emerged from the demonic energy!

The giant claw phantom gripped the descending sword beam like an iron clamp!

Immediately afterwards, a word came from the demonic energy: "Shatter," like a death sentence.

The phantom formed from demonic energy clenched its fist, and the ten-thousand-foot sword beam gradually shattered like fragile glass.

After the demon lord crushed the illusory image of the ten-thousand-foot-long sword light, the surging demonic energy deep in the snowfield gradually receded like a tide, as if it had been partially wiped away by an invisible hand!

King Rai Xun also keenly realized that, for some reason, the Demon Lord was unable to appear on this fierce battlefield!

Perhaps it is sealed in the depths of the endless sea, like a buried treasure, difficult to find; or perhaps it is hidden in some corner deep within the vast ice and snow plains, like a sleeping dragon, waiting for the time to awaken.

King Rai Xun laughed heartily, his voice booming like a bell, echoing through the heavens: "Now is the perfect time to close the door and beat the dog!"

Give me five more Emperor-level Ancestors from the Shadow Clan!

Within the Shadow Clan, an old man stepped forward, saying with deep concern, "Your Majesty, you mustn't! If five more patriarchs arrive, your physical body will be like a candle flickering in the wind, unable to withstand such immense pressure!"

King Rai Xun, however, was unconvinced. His gaze was as firm as a rock as he confidently said, "What do you mean, 'can't hold on'?"

I know what I'm doing; otherwise, I would have called for ten!

After summoning five more patriarchs, King Lai Xun stood like a majestic mountain before the army.

He issued orders to the army, his voice like thunder, shaking the hearts of everyone present: "All troops, charge like tigers descending the mountain! Emperor-level experts lead the charge!"

After saying this, King Lai Xun nodded slightly, and the fifteen Emperor-level elders of the Shadow Legion, like a flock of agile eagles, spread their wings and soared into the sky, launching a combined attack and continuously channeling their powerful internal energy into King Lai Xun's body!

King Rai Xun's originally tall and mighty body was now swelling up at an extremely slow but terrifying speed, like a balloon being continuously inflated.

His muscles were taut, as if they might burst at any moment from over-expansion.

He was gripping an enormous sword tightly in his right hand, the blade gleaming with a cold, sharp light.

He slowly raised his right arm, pointing the sword tip straight at the sky, exuding an unparalleled aura of majesty.

Suddenly, King Rai Xun opened his mouth and roared with earth-shattering fury: "Sword of the King of Men!" The roar was like a thunderbolt, causing ripples to spread through the surrounding air.

The instant he uttered those words, a dazzling golden sword aura suddenly shot out from the giant sword he held.

This sword energy shone brightly, containing boundless power, but its length was less than a hundred feet.

However, despite this, its power should not be underestimated.

At the same time, with the activation of the sword energy, King Lai Xun's right hand could not withstand the powerful reaction force and exploded in an instant! Amidst the flying flesh and blood, blood gushed out from his severed arm, staining the ground beneath his feet red.

Not far away, the fifteen Emperor-level elders of the Shadow Clan were already on high alert.

In a flash, they surrounded King Rai Xun, forming an impenetrable encirclement.

These elders were all incredibly powerful and unfathomable. Their cold gazes were fixed on every creature except King Raixun, ready to launch a fatal attack at any moment.

Just then, deep within the snowfield, billowing demonic energy suddenly surged and churned.

Immediately afterwards, a phantom of a demon, formed from demonic energy, gradually appeared.

This demon had a pair of incredibly sharp claws. It stretched out its claws and fiercely grabbed at the greatsword in King Rai Xun's hand.

However, the moment the demon's claws made contact with the greatsword, a piercing metallic scraping sound rang out.

Then, as if struck by a heavy blow, the demon's phantom instantly shattered into countless fragments, which dissipated into the air.

As the demonic phantom collapsed, the churning demonic energy seemed to lose its support and began to retreat madly.

They surged into the depths of the endless sea like a tide, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

The severely injured King Rai Xun finally collapsed, his eyes closed, and he fell straight backward into a deep coma.

However, the enormous demon lord, exuding a terrifying aura, issued a chilling final order as he fled in disarray—a suicidal counterattack!

This command was like a thunderclap, tearing through the sky and shaking the entire battlefield.

On the other side, King Lai Xun's face was as pale as paper, and his body swayed precariously, but he still managed to say his last words: "Your Highness, and Wei Tianxing and all the other Emperor-level experts and brave soldiers, I... have finally avenged a small grudge for you!"

Before he could finish speaking, everything went black, and he fell straight backward.

Upon seeing this, the fifteen Emperor-level elders of the Shadow Legion were greatly alarmed. They rushed forward and hurriedly lifted King Lai Xun up, then carried him to the central military tent as quickly as possible.

There, the royal physicians, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly began treatment, hoping to save the life of this great king.

However, the fighting on the battlefield did not stop with the fall of King Raihun.

The fierce battle between humans and monsters continues unabated.

Shouts of battle, roars, and the clashing of weapons mingled together, creating a breathtaking symphony of war. Blood stained the earth, severed limbs were scattered everywhere, and the air was thick with the stench of blood.

But neither side showed any intention of backing down; they shared only one belief—to fight to the bitter end, until death do them part!

At this very moment, the fierce battle between Zhu Chongjiu and the Divine Void King was in full swing, with both sides locked in a close and evenly matched fight!

It should be noted that Zhu Chongjiu had been diligently cultivating for nearly eight months prior, and his control over the elements of heaven and earth as well as his own power had made rapid progress.

He continued to explore its mysteries, and each breakthrough brought new insights and gains.

Now, facing the powerful God King, he is finally able to fully unleash the strength he has accumulated over this period of time.

The two of them manipulated the elements of heaven and earth to attack each other. In an instant, ice, frost, snow and rain intertwined, creating a scene that was both extremely dangerous and incredibly beautiful.

The biting frost, the torrential rain, and the swirling snowflakes seemed to create a breathtaking scene.

Amidst this storm of intertwined elements, the figures of Zhu Chongjiu and Shenxu Wang appear and disappear, making one hold their breath in suspense.

Moreover, when the two engaged in close combat, their blows were brutal and merciless. Every punch was delivered with the force of a thunderbolt; every kick was as fierce as a storm.

Their muscles were taut, veins bulging, and sweat mixed with blood, filling the entire battlefield with a strong stench of blood.

This physical battle was extremely bloody and violent, but it also demonstrated the extraordinary resilience and understanding of combat between the two, a man and a beast.

The battle lasted for three days and three nights, as if time itself had frozen.

Finally, both sides were exhausted and collapsed to the ground, motionless like two statues.

During these three long and fierce days of battle, Zhu Chongjiu displayed astonishing strength and talent. His understanding of the elements of heaven and earth was so profound that it was comparable to that of the renowned Divine Void King.

However, despite this, Zhu Chongjiu was slightly inferior in terms of the scale of his manipulation of the elements of heaven and earth.

After all, the Divine Void King's level was far higher than Zhu Chongjiu's, and his profound cultivation and powerful strength were incomparable to ordinary people.

It should be understood that there is an insurmountable gap between the Emperor level and the Saint level. However, Zhu Chongjiu did not back down or show any fear because of this.

On the contrary, relying on his unwavering will and unique cultivation ideas that did not belong to this world, he managed to fight the Divine Void King to a standstill in some aspects.

Especially in terms of physical strength, the situation was even more unexpected. Although the Divine Void King, as a demon beast, possessed a naturally strong physique, Zhu Chongjiu, as a human cultivator, had been nourished by the source of water and fire for a long time, making his physical body extremely powerful.

It is no exaggeration to say that, in terms of physical strength alone, Zhu Chongjiu is slightly superior to Shenxu Wang.

However, it is worth mentioning that throughout the entire battle, the Divine Void King never revealed its true demonic beast form. If the Divine Void King had truly disregarded everything and revealed its true demonic beast form, then whether Zhu Chongjiu would have been able to defeat this powerful opponent would have been truly an unknown.
