The Demon Emperor was enraged!
It was the mighty Abyssal Sovereign, yet one of its subordinates had been slain right under its nose by a human as insignificant as an ant!
And even a trace of its projection had been wounded!
Its enormous hand abruptly turned, intent on crushing Su Yu to pieces.
However.
The moment the Demon Saint died, the Abyssal Array—which had served as both the coordinate and the sacrifice—collapsed instantly.
The Abyssal Passage that had been forcibly torn open began to contract and close violently once it lost its energy support.
The power of the plane’s laws transformed into countless bolts of lightning and struck the enormous hand with merciless force.
The Demon Emperor’s hand let out an unwilling roar.
Before the passage could completely close, it had no choice but to withdraw into the Abyss.
Rumble!
The pitch-black rift instantly sealed shut.
The sky returned to its former clarity.
…
Abandoned industrial district.
A deathly silence prevailed.
A gentle breeze swept past, stirring up a sky full of black ash.
Sunlight pierced through the thin mist and once again spilled across the devastated earth.
High in the air.
The smoke and dust slowly dispersed.
A figure hovered there in silence.
Su Yu was gasping heavily. More than half of the dark-gold divine blood in his body had already been consumed.
The silver battle armor that had originally been filled with a futuristic, technological aesthetic was now battered beyond recognition, revealing the black combat uniform beneath, drenched in sweat.
The spear in his hand had shattered.
Yet his upright figure had not bent in the slightest.
The sunlight illuminated his cold, sharply defined features.
To all the survivors below, it left behind an astonishingly handsome silhouette that seemed to belong to a God of War.
In the distance.
Several off-road vehicles bearing military insignia came speeding toward them.
Before the vehicles had even come to a complete stop, several military battlefield reporters with cameras and recording equipment hanging from their chests came tumbling out.
They had originally been ordered to film news footage of Nie Changkong exterminating the evil cult’s stronghold.
But the moment they reached the outskirts, they witnessed the earth-shaking scene that had just taken place—an event destined to go down in history!
“Quick! Start shooting!”
“Oh my God!”
Click, click, click, click—
Countless camera flashes were aimed at the battered yet invincible silhouette in the air as the reporters frantically pressed their shutters.
High in the air.
Su Yu hovered quietly.
The shattered “Firmament” battle armor made faint metallic scraping sounds in the breeze.
He lowered his head.
Then he looked at his slightly trembling hands.
The split wound at the base of his thumb was healing at a visible rate under the astonishing regenerative power of the Void Tyrant Physique.
But Su Yu’s brows remained tightly furrowed.
Not enough!
He still wasn’t strong enough!
The battle just now had seemed utterly effortless, but in truth, it had been perilous in the extreme.
Against the Demon Saint, he had indeed been able to achieve absolute suppression.
But when the Demon Emperor’s enormous hand tore through the void and descended with a thunderous force, Su Yu had truly felt a suffocating threat of death!
It was the absolute suppression of one life form over another!
If he hadn’t made a split-second decision—combining Martial King-level spiritual power with the spear intent of the Soul-Forging Peak to forcibly split the Demon Emperor’s palm, then killing the Demon Saint before the Abyssal Passage could close—
Once the Demon Emperor’s projection had fully stabilized, the one who died here today would definitely have been him!
“My cultivation realm is still too low.”
Su Yu silently calculated his situation.
Nine million units of dark-gold divine blood sounded impressive, and his combat strength was indeed comparable to that of a Martial Saint.
But he was ultimately only a Martial Spirit!
When facing a true Abyssal Sovereign, even a projection crossing between worlds had pushed him so hard.
If he wanted to truly sweep aside everything in this perilous world, he still had to become stronger!
He had to keep spending money to power up!
But where was he supposed to get the money?
The one trillion yuan compensation from the Chen family had already been converted into power by him in a single burst the previous night.
At present, less than one billion yuan remained in his storage ring.
For the realms ahead—where breaking through could easily require hundreds of billions or even trillions of years’ worth of cultivation—this amount was nothing more than a drop in the bucket!
A blazing light flashed through Su Yu’s deep, translucent eyes.
After he returned this time, he had to find a way to get money, no matter what!
He had saved four Martial Kings from the military.
He had rescued Nie Changkong, the vice principal of Jingwu.
And in front of the Nation-Guarding Martial Saint, he had personally slain an Abyssal Demon Saint!
With such astonishing achievements, asking for several trillion yuan worth of resources shouldn’t be excessive, right?
In fact…
Su Yu stroked his chin.
An astonishingly bold idea quietly emerged in his mind.
Perhaps he could find an opportunity to ask the military—or Nie Changkong—
Could they directly assign him a mint?
He could print his own money and spend it himself!
Unlimited recharging!
Unlimited deductions!
As long as the printing press kept running, he could raise his vital energy to the Martial Emperor realm in the shortest possible time, perhaps even surpassing the Martial Emperor realm!
Once this thought surfaced, he could no longer suppress it.
Su Yu took a deep breath.
Inside his body.
The nine million units of dark-gold divine blood continued to surge and roar through his meridians, radiating a terrifying pressure that seemed almost tangible.
He no longer activated the “Myriad Forms Concealment Technique” to restrain his aura.
There was no need.
Now that his trump card had been exposed, now that he had displayed such combat power, continuing to hide his strength would only seem affected.
Besides.
He was currently using the identity of “Su Yuan,” his shadow persona.
The more terrifyingly powerful he appeared, and the more mysterious his background seemed, the more confidence he would have when asking for resources later!
He would take advantage of this opportunity to demand an enormous haul of resources!
Whoosh—
Su Yu’s figure flashed as he slowly descended from the air.
At the outskirts of the abandoned industrial district.
A deathly silence reigned.
Aside from the military battlefield reporters in the distance, who were still frantically pressing their shutters with a constant series of clicks, everyone present held their breath.
Su Yu’s feet touched the ground.
He stepped onto the charred ruins, producing a faint crunch of breaking debris.
He said nothing.
He merely stood there in silence.
But the undisguised pressure of his nine million units of dark-gold divine blood swept in all directions like a Category Ten hurricane!
Overbearing!
Weighty!
It even carried a trace of the ultimate deathly stillness left behind by the recent slaughter of the Demon Saint!
Around him.
The four Martial Kings from the military whom Nie Changkong had brought out all lowered their heads in unison.
They did not dare to look directly at him!
Even though they were battle-hardened soldiers, even though they had fought monsters countless times along the Abyssal Frontiers, when faced with the young man in the shattered armor before them, they instinctively felt awe arising from the depths of their souls.
The strong were revered!
This was an eternal law of the martial world!
Mowu Vice Principal Lei Qianjue swallowed hard.
His one remaining eye was fixed on Su Yu, filled with overwhelming shock.
“Martial Saint Huo.”
Lei Qianjue’s voice was hoarse. He couldn’t help turning toward Huo Zhenshan beside him.
“What… exactly happened just now?”
“The Demon Emperor descended. The Abyssal Passage had clearly been forcibly opened.”
“Why… did the Demon Emperor retreat?”
Although Lei Qianjue was a Martial Emperor, the moment the Demon Emperor descended, he had been sent flying by its pressure and had failed to see what had truly happened at the very core of the Abyssal Realm.
He had only seen the Demon Emperor’s enormous hand reach out, followed by Su Yu soaring into the sky.
Then the Demon Saint had died, and the Abyssal Passage had closed.
Everything had happened far too quickly, and it had all seemed utterly unreal!
Upon hearing Lei Qianjue’s question.
All the Martial Emperors and Martial Kings present pricked up their ears.
Their gazes turned in unison toward Huo Zhenshan, the Nation-Guarding Martial Saint.
Huo Zhenshan stood where he was.
This pillar of the nation, who stood at the very pinnacle of Great Xia, fell into a long silence.
He looked at the cold, iron-like young man before him.
His deep eyes were filled with emotions so complex they were impossible to describe.
Shock.
Disbelief.
And, more than anything, the dazed feeling of having witnessed the birth of a legend.
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
ts me of treason?" "Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence." "Wait—I have half a million soldiers, and you want me to go back to the capital to 'build influence'?" "Host, you are currently the Northern Garrison General, loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty." "Of course I am loyal to Great Xia! Absolutely loyal!" "But you keep referring to yourself as 'We'..." "Never mind the details! Summon all the regional commanders and military officers! We suspect treacherous officials are manipulating the court! They shall march with Us to the capital and purge the corrupt!" "......"
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
