The next moment.
A massive portal in the sky shimmered with light as a colossal figure clad in black armor, standing dozens of feet tall with a bloated physique, made a grand entrance!
It was none other than the Elephant Demon!
At this moment, the Elephant Demon was seething with rage, its long trunk raised high, while the menacing tusks on either side of its mouth gleamed with a chilling light.
"Human!! This Holy Envoy has descended! Go ahead, curse me one more time if you dare!"
The Elephant Demon hovered in the air, its terrifying aura condensing around it as it glared fixedly at Gu Qingfeng standing on the ground, a cruel and savage grin twisting its lips.
The Elephant Demon was laughing with delight, but Gu Qingfeng's laughter was even more gleeful.
"Keh keh keh..." Gu Qingfeng's fair and handsome face was now twisted into a ferocious smile. His eyes burned with an insatiable greed as he stared at the imposing Elephant Demon.
"In all my years, I’ve never heard such an absurd request. Since you’re begging to be cursed, then listen well—
You , you !"
The Elephant Demon instantly flew into a rage. It never expected this human to be so audacious, daring to act so arrogantly even in the presence of a Holy Envoy descending from the upper realm!
"Ant! You’ve got nerve! This Holy Envoy has descended to ensure you—"
"Wish for death but be denied it?" Gu Qingfeng cut in. "Tsk tsk, still no improvement? Even an idiot would’ve learned something after being cursed by hundreds of demons for an entire hour!"
"AAAAAH! You sharp-tongued little ant! Do you think this Holy Envoy doesn’t know your game? You’re trying to provoke me into killing you quickly, aren’t you?
Well, this Holy Envoy won’t grant your wish! I’ll torture you slowly—for a thousand years!"
Having said this, the Elephant Demon fell silent, knowing it couldn’t win a war of words with Gu Qingfeng. Instead, it took direct action.
With a mighty swing of its trunk from the heavens, the thick appendage—capable of pleasing any female demon—suddenly expanded, stretching endlessly like a whip spanning the sky.
Carrying the force of ten thousand jun, it lashed down viciously toward Gu Qingfeng.
Even this casual strike caused the surrounding space to tremble, nearly shattering under its power.
Such was the might of an upper-realm Holy Envoy!
A flash of excitement crossed Gu Qingfeng’s eyes. Instead of dodging, he stretched out both hands toward the incoming trunk, clearly intending to grab it.
Truth be told, Gu Qingfeng just wanted to yank the Elephant Demon down quickly. After all, the bastard was too close to the dimensional portal—what if it turned tail and fled?
Seeing Gu Qingfeng attempt to catch its trunk bare-handed, the Elephant Demon sneered. Though this strike wasn’t its full power, the force behind it was enough to obliterate ten peak Divine Realm experts.
It could already picture Gu Qingfeng’s hands exploding into bloody mist.
But the next second, something happened that left it utterly dumbfounded.
BAM!
A deafening crash echoed as Gu Qingfeng’s pale hands clamped down firmly on the trunk.
The Elephant Demon felt as though it had struck an immovable divine stone—the human didn’t budge an inch. A flicker of shock passed through its eyes.
This brat actually has such strength? No wonder he annihilated the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom. Calling him the strongest in the Qing Realm wouldn’t be an exaggeration.
But that’s where it ends!
In the end, his ignorance is his downfall. The gap between the upper and lower realms is an insurmountable chasm!
Ding!
Host attacked by the Elephant Demon.
Strength +1,000,000 +1,000,000 +1,000,000...
Oh? Strength boost? So this Elephant Demon specializes in raw power. Gu Qingfeng mused.
Before he could ponder further, the Elephant Demon exerted force again, violently shaking its trunk in an attempt to fling him around.
But the moment it applied strength, it sensed something wrong—Gu Qingfeng was pulling back with equal might, gripping its trunk in a death lock.
The Elephant Demon scoffed inwardly. Daring to challenge the strength of a Sacred Elephant?
It abruptly unleashed its full power, an endless surge of might erupting from its body.
A contest of brute force began.
Ding!
Host attacked by the Elephant Demon.
Strength +2,000,000 +2,000,000 +2,000,000...
As the Elephant Demon continued to exert itself, its expression shifted—from shock to disbelief.
It had already used 70% of its strength, yet Gu Qingfeng remained motionless, looking completely at ease.
How is this possible?!
Ding!
Host’s strength has reached its limit. Congratulations, host has obtained the Sacred Elephant Physique!
The moment the system’s voice faded, Gu Qingfeng felt an unimaginable power surge within his body—so immense it seemed capable of shattering space with sheer force alone.
"Get down here!"
Seizing the explosive boost in strength, Gu Qingfeng gave a vicious yank!
The Elephant Demon felt a sharp pain in its trunk before an overwhelming force dragged it downward, sending it stumbling uncontrollably.
Panic set in as it tried to halt its descent, but Gu Qingfeng was already spinning.
Holding onto the trunk, he whirled around like a top.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The Elephant Demon was swung dozens of times in the air, forming a makeshift tornado, before Gu Qingfeng abruptly slammed it downward.
BOOM—!
Like a meteor, the Elephant Demon crashed into the ground, carving out a massive crater.
The impact was nuclear in scale—earth shattered, dust and debris soaring hundreds of meters into the sky.
But as expected of an upper-realm demon, a thunderous elephantine roar erupted from the pit, shaking the earth.
A towering figure shot out from the depths, completely unharmed.
It was the Elephant Demon.
Instead of attacking recklessly, it fixed a wary gaze on Gu Qingfeng and demanded, "Who are you?! A mere lower-realm ant shouldn’t be this strong. Someone’s backing you—who is it? Who trained you?!"
Clap clap clap...
Gu Qingfeng slowly applauded, his lips curling into a sinister grin. "As expected of a Holy Race. In all my time dominating demons, you’re the first to ask the right question—to recognize that someone stands behind me.
Indeed, there is someone behind me.
Or, to be precise, there are demons. The achievements I’ve made today wouldn’t have been possible without their... support."
Hearing this, the Elephant Demon’s pupils constricted. Demons helped him?!
In that instant, countless thoughts raced through its mind. This human’s power far exceeded the limits of the Qing Realm—he must have been guided by someone from the upper realm.
But the passage to the Qing Realm was controlled solely by the Holy Race. Combined with his admission of demonic backing... the answer was obvious.
There’s a traitor among the Holy Race!
"Who?! Which demon is helping you?!" the Elephant Demon snarled.
Gu Qingfeng smiled faintly. "No harm in telling you. Though the list is a bit long, so listen carefully."
The Elephant Demon grew even more solemn.
What?! There’s more than one traitor?!
Gu Qingfeng continued, "A man must know gratitude. The strength I possess today is all thanks to—Little Corpse Charm, Eye Demon, Locust Tree Demon, White Bone Master, Mirror Demon, Shadow Demon, Demon Pu, Blood Demon... and the Azure Demon Emperor, among others..."
The Elephant Demon was stunned as he heard the unfamiliar names. Are these really the demons of the Holy Clan? Why are there so many low-tier demon names? And why is the Azure Demon Emperor among them?
"You dare mock this Holy Envoy!?" the Elephant Demon roared.
Gu Qingfeng shook his head. "This venerable one speaks only the truth."
At this point, he paused, and an eerily sinister smile suddenly flashed across his face. "Soon, this venerable one will even thank you!"
