The Spirit Realm is simply the name humans use for this world, while demons prefer to call it the Demon Spirit Realm or the Demon Realm.
On the top of the Tower of Ten Thousand Bones, an old man frowned.
"Hmph! That fool Tong Mo can't even conquer such a small plane. With the Twelve Heavenly Demon Formation bestowed by me, he should be able to easily take down any Nascent Soul cultivator."
They even said there was a genius who could advance to the Void Refinement stage in the lower realms. I can't believe that lying mouth of a human demon cultivator! Fine, I'll go there myself.
"If the Spirit Realm sends a Nascent Soul cultivator down there, that would be troublesome. I must get my hands on the secret of how demonic cultivators in the lower realm advance to the Void Refinement stage!" After saying this, the Ancient Demon King Wan Gu disappeared in a flash.
At this moment, the Demon Lord was annihilated by Xiang Yu's domineering energy, leaving not a single cell behind, and was beyond dead.
Xiang Yu was very experienced in dealing with enemies who were immortal, and he gave them no chance to recover or escape.
The domineering energy surrounding the Demon Lord had gathered to an extremely terrifying concentration; even cultivators at the Refinement Realm were instantly killed before they could withstand it.
The demon envoy, who had been brutally beaten by Bai Mei high in the sky, was crying. He hoped that the demon realm would not send someone who was only at the early stage of the Fusion Realm. Even if they did come, it would be useless. They would not be able to escape. This Overlord Xiang Yu was at least a late stage Fusion Realm expert, or even a Mahayana cultivator!
Is the human race in the Spirit Realm so desperate that they've even sent Mahayana cultivators down to the mortal realm?
How is that possible!
Even among those at the Integration Realm, there aren't many humans in the Spirit Realm, so there's absolutely no reason to send down such a powerful force.
The demon's mind became increasingly chaotic, and the more distracted he became, the more brutal the beatings he received; he was not far from death.
Bai Mei had never seen a Mahayana cultivator make a move, but he had heard of and seen many Nascent Soul stage experts make a move.
But he had never seen anyone kill a Void Refinement cultivator so easily, without even moving a finger, without using any magic weapons or spells, and without even using any celestial manifestations.
This made him suspect that Xiang Yu, the Overlord, was a cultivator in the Mahayana stage, or a powerful expert whose combat strength was higher than that of a late-stage Integration stage cultivator.
But can a place like the lower realm cultivate such a peak expert? You must know that the human race in the spirit realm only has one Mahayana ancestor, who is the pillar of the entire human race.
If the human race could produce one more Mahayana cultivator, they might be able to completely shed the title of the weakest race in the spirit realm!
He could at least overpower the demon race, because he knew that the demon race only had one Mahayana cultivator.
Although there is a Tribulation Transcending stage above the Mahayana realm, this stage is just as awkward as the Nascent Soul stage in the lower realm. Once you reach this stage, you must undergo the Immortal Tribulation to ascend to the Immortal Realm, otherwise it will be harmful to you.
However, if you feel you are not confident in passing the Immortal Tribulation, you can continue to stay in the Spirit Realm, but you cannot act recklessly and must hide yourself well, otherwise the Immortal Tribulation will come knocking, and if you fail to pass the tribulation, you will die and your life will be extinguished.
Therefore, the Mahayana stage represents the pinnacle of combat power in the spirit realm. Moreover, there is no distinction between early, middle, and late stages in the Mahayana stage; further cultivation beyond the Mahayana stage is the Tribulation Transcending stage.
Of course, there are also differences in strength among Mahayana cultivators. Legend has it that the only Mahayana cultivator among humans was at the bottom of the list of all races in the spirit realm.
Even so, the human race's status in the spirit world has improved considerably because of this Mahayana cultivator, at least proving that the human race can also reach the Mahayana realm and is not some inferior race.
As long as a clan has Mahayana cultivators, it is not easy to be wiped out, and it is not a problem to occupy some relatively remote places in the spirit realm.
In fact, the last fifty races in the Spirit Realm each have only one Mahayana cultivator; their rankings are determined by the prestige of the Mahayana cultivators and the number of cultivators at the Integration stage.
Therefore, as soon as a second Mahayana practitioner is born, he will immediately be able to crush the next fifty.
Of course, even if they crush them, they wouldn't dare to easily attack other races. If several races joined forces, the human race still wouldn't be able to withstand it.
However, if given more time to form alliances and consolidate power, becoming a regional hegemon is not a problem.
Bai Mei observed that Xiang Yu, the Hegemon-King, was not very old. With such talent, even if he hadn't reached the Great Ascension stage yet, he was very likely to reach it in the future.
It should be understood that advancing from the initial stage to the Mahayana stage is extremely difficult; otherwise, there wouldn't be only one or two Mahayana cultivators in an entire clan.
Xiang Yu was unaware that the two Void Refinement cultivators in the sky had already mistaken him for a Mahayana cultivator, when in reality he hadn't even reached the Core Formation stage yet.
However, Xiang Yu's current strength is enough to instantly kill a cultivator at the Void Refinement stage. The domineering energy is different from magic power. Most of the supernatural abilities of cultivators are related to magic power, and they also defend against magic power. As long as the domineering energy can break through the defense, coupled with its formless and colorless attributes, it can be said to be invincible.
As the smoke cleared, the opponent's system was revealed. It was unclear what race it belonged to; it looked somewhat like a two-year-old human child, only much larger. If it grew to adulthood at this size, it should be around two zhang tall. Moreover, this system seemed to be male, as its penis resembled a pointed arrow.
"It seems that even the Void Refining Realm can't detect my true strength. I really have to go to the Spirit Realm," Xiang Yu thought to himself.
"Perhaps even the Spirit Realm can't detect the Overlord's true strength, then we'll have to go to the Immortal Realm. Hey, this system should be called the Little Demon Child System, right? It's chubby and pink."
Hao Jiu was just about to unleash a blade array to shred the weak, terrified, and confused baby when he suddenly remembered something else—an extremely important matter that he had just overlooked.
He's part of an organized system; you can't just randomly kill any system you encounter outside of missions!
Hao Jiu opened the system radar and saw a small green dot on it, which meant that the system he had unexpectedly encountered was actually an allied force!
This is really awkward! If we don't kill him, the feud has already been formed; if we do kill him, it might be difficult to explain to the God of Systems.
"Why doesn't the God of Wine kill this system?" Xiang Yu thought that this naked little baby was quite cute at first glance, but there was a sinister aura in his eyes, so he didn't seem like a good thing.
"This guy must be one of our allies. We crashed into each other," Hao Jiu said helplessly.
Xiang Yu's lips twitched violently. He had previously mentioned using radar to scan the entire plane to see if there were any systems, but Hao Jiu was reluctant to do so. The main reason was that radar was unreliable even in lower planes, and it would probably be even less effective in middle planes.
So Hao Jiu's method was to scan and confirm only when there was a confirmed suspicious target, which resulted in friendly fire.
Of course, strictly speaking, this Little Demon System was blocking his and Xiang Yu's path. So what if they were allies? The strong in this plane should get it.
"What do we do now?" Xiang Yu was speechless; this was too much of a coincidence.
"Lock it up." Hao Jiu took out the Divine Wood King Cauldron. She had promised the Enchanting System to find her a little toy, and this little guy was just right.
"Let me go right now! Otherwise you'll regret it! You can't afford to mess with my boss! I'll scare you to death if I tell you!" The little devil glared angrily at Hao Jiu, looking fiercely cute, and was ready to self-destruct. However, he saw the other party throw a cauldron at him.
Immediately afterwards, the little demon boy saw a pair of fair and delicate hands lift him into the cauldron, where he bumped into two soft mounds of flesh.
"The God of Wine is truly true to his word! What an adorable demon baby! Come here and let your sister have some fun with it." The Enchanting System didn't mind being taken advantage of at all.
"If you like it, that's fine." Hao Jiu's lips twitched violently.
The Enchanting System raised an eyebrow. "Come on, give me a flick."
Hao Jiu's eyes widened instantly. "Hey, hey, hey, where are you going to bounce it!"
Peng~
Little Demon Boy, "..."
Chapter 475 Annihilation
Hao Jiu suddenly felt a little sorry for this friendly system. Not only did it steal his plane of existence, it also gave him to a mature woman who liked to play with penises. Good heavens, he was still a child.
At this moment, the cultivators who were still fighting finally realized one fact: the Demon Lord, who was at the Refinement Void Realm, was completely dead!
Moreover, they were almost powerless to fight back and were no match for the Overlord. Even if the Heavenly Demon Envoy defeated the opponent, he would still be a Void Refinement cultivator and how much stronger could he be than the Demon Lord?
What's the point of knitting then?
escape!
Cultivators always prioritize the survival of their fellow cultivators over their own. These demonic cultivators, however, have no intention of sacrificing themselves for the cause. Countless demonic cultivators rushed to flee towards the Demon Source Sea. This Central Origin Land is too terrifying; there are terrifying beings capable of instantly killing cultivators at the Void Refinement stage!
The ancestors of Jin and Qi also ran away, no, they ran even faster than the demonic cultivators, but they could not escape back to their original countries and could only go to the Demon Source Sea.
The demon race has suffered heavy losses and is in dire need of manpower. It should be possible to get them into the Demon Source Sea, and then take the opportunity to occupy the Demon Source Sea, surrender and return to the Central Yuan Continent to atone for their crimes!
However, this is just wishful thinking on their part.
In Xiang Yu's eyes, these traitors were more despicable than the demonic cultivators, and they had to be killed!
"Leave them all behind, Blood Storm!" Xiang Yu's domineering energy, which had been lying in ambush all around, instantly swept over the fleeing demonic cultivators and Qi Jin cultivators. Whether they were Nascent Soul or Core Formation cultivators, none of them could escape death.
Just then, a towering demonic figure appeared in the sky above the Chu Kingdom. It had three heads and six arms and was terrifyingly ferocious. It was the Ancient Demon of Eternity that had been transported from the Demon Spirit Realm.
This demon is one of the powerful demons in charge of the lower realms, and the demon envoy Tong Mo is his subordinate.
Normally, people of the level of the Ancient Demon King rarely come to the lower realm, but he wanted to find out the secret of how the demon lords of the lower realm advanced to the Void Refinement stage, so he came in person.
It's better to believe something is true than not; what if it is? Missing out on it would be like missing a great opportunity.
When the demon envoy saw that it was the Ancient Demon King himself who had come, his excitement quickly turned to anxiety. The Ancient Demon King was considered a strong figure among Nascent Soul cultivators, but he was no match for the human below who appeared to be a Mahayana cultivator.
However, now that I've calmed down and thought about it, how could the only Mahayana cultivator of the human race appear here? He could easily kill many cultivators in the early stages of the Void Refinement Realm or those in the mid-to-late stages of the Integration Realm. It's just that his cultivation method is rather strange and difficult to understand.
Therefore, the expert below must be a human cultivator at the Integration Stage. Even if the Ancient Demon Wan Gu is no match for him, he can still escape, or he can call on a few more Integration Stage cultivators to surround and kill this person.
However, for the Demon Envoy, the most important thing right now is how to escape danger. Taking advantage of the fact that the Ancient Demon of Ten Thousand Years is participating in the battle to escape is the best strategy. It's just that White Eyebrows is watching too closely and it's difficult to get away for the time being.
The ancient demon god swept his senses across the area, finally fixing his gaze on Bai Mei. He then unleashed a palm strike, shouting, "You, a mere human cultivator at the Void Refinement stage, dare to oppose my demon race? Annihilate you!"
The demon envoy was thrilled. Faced with a powerful enemy at the Integration Realm, the Ancient Demon King of Eternity actually chose to save him first, giving the initiative to the other party. This was truly... Could it be that the Ancient Demon King of Eternity hadn't noticed the experts below?
That would be the end of it!
"Watch out! The real danger is down below!" the demon envoy warned hastily, while fleeing at top speed.
"The Dharma Body of Heaven and Earth has solidified, a mid-stage Integration Realm expert!" White-browed was terrified out of his wits. "Overlord, save me!"
"Your opponent is me!" Xiang Yu wielded the Overlord Divine Halberd and instantly appeared before the Ancient Demon King, who was hundreds of miles above the sky.
"This person has concealed his cultivation! It's impossible for a human Foundation Establishment cultivator to fly so high and so fast!" The Ancient Demon King instinctively sensed the danger and quickly withdrew his divine power that was attacking Bai Mei. He used his Dharma Body to protect himself and block Xiang Yu's attack with all his might.
Click!
The cosmic phenomena shattered instantly...
"No!" The Ancient Demon cried out in agony as Xiang Yu cleaved his nascent soul in two!
The crimson storm connected with the sky and transformed into a crimson tornado, while the corpse of the Ancient Demon was shattered into dust, leaving only a storage ring in Xiang Yu's hand.
The fleeing demon envoy looked back and was immediately ashen-faced and on the verge of tears. The ancient demon, who was in the mid-stage of the Fusion Realm, had been instantly killed.
When did the human race produce such a powerful individual?
Could it be some damned human Mahayana cultivator who's so bored he's come down to the lower realm to show off?
That's too much! That's bullying the demons!
But luckily, he escaped!
"Hahaha... That idiot Bai Mei, as soon as I return to the Demon Realm, I will report this matter to the Demon Lord and send troops to crush the human race in the Spirit Realm!"
The demon envoy desperately used his Blood Escape Technique to flee towards the island nation. Running directly towards the Demon Source Sea was too dangerous; it would be safer to take a detour back.
The dust had settled on the Chu battlefield. Most of the enemies had been dealt with by Xiang Yu, and the remaining ones were no match for the Zhongyuan cultivators.
Bai Mei approached Xiang Yu with a look of shame. "Senior, I was careless just now and let the demon envoy escape. I'll go after him right away."
Xiang Yu glanced at the Nascent Soul cultivators who were constantly gathering around him. "It's alright. Do you know the location of the Demon Realm teleportation array?"
Bai Mei blushed. "Uh, I roughly know."
"Approximately?" Xiang Yu frowned. Shi Potian, Shenxu Zhenren, and others only knew that the Demon Clan had a teleportation array, but they didn't know exactly where it was. They didn't expect that this Spirit Realm Inspector, who had been in this plane for so long, didn't even know the location of the Demon Clan's teleportation array. It was really well hidden.
