Divine-level Base

The terrifying radiance of the fist, imbued with the power of Heaven Opening, came crashing down, slamming into the bodies of the Blazing Sun Sword Saint and the Wan Tu Demon.

"I’ve lost in the end!!"

The Blazing Sun Sword Saint gave a bitter smile as his body instantly shattered, its pieces scattering across the ground.

"No!!"

The Wan Tu Demon let out a bloodcurdling scream as his body also exploded, turning into countless fragments that scattered across the ground.

Shu Feng’s gaze narrowed. ’As expected of Demon-Slaying Immortal Wei! A truly fearsome man who has single-handedly defended War Immortal City for a century, making the Void Demons too afraid to invade!’

After undergoing Demonization, experts like the Blazing Sun Sword Saint and the Wan Tu Demon became terrifying powerhouses, each capable of single-handedly routing an army or destroying a nation.

The Blazing Sun Sword Saint had mastered the True Intent of the Fierce Sun. Within the Black Tortoise Realm, his combat strength was even more terrifying than Duke Bari’s. And yet this peerless expert, the number one master of the Bei Mo Royal Court, couldn’t even withstand a single blow from Wei Tuxian.

This was a clear testament to Wei Tuxian’s immense power.

The Star Saint Master sighed softly. With a flicker of his body, he instantly retreated several hundred meters. Neither Wei Tuxian nor Shu Feng were powerhouses he could hope to contend with.

"Remarkable. Wei Tuxian is truly worthy of his name—the Child of Destiny from the Black Tortoise Realm’s previous era! His combat strength is truly heaven-defying!"

The sound of applause came from the side as the Manor Master of Wanhua Manor strode over. Following behind him were four middle-aged men in tight-fitting black clothes, all exuding a formidable aura.

Wei Tuxian glanced at the Manor Master of Wanhua Manor and said coolly, "Manor Master of Wanhua Manor, do you also intend to vie with me for these Divine Fruits? Are you courting death?"

The Manor Master of Wanhua Manor was a Martial Saint from the Great Song Empire and had once presented a celebratory gift to Wei Tuxian. Wei Tuxian remembered his face.

"This is the Golden Divine Source Fruit! A fruit that can increase Soul Strength and requires the Source of the World to cultivate. It’s incredibly precious. Even among the Upper-level Void Demon Kings, very few have had the pleasure of enjoying one! Back then, I wasn’t qualified to enjoy it either."

"I never thought I’d reap such a reward just by touring a Little World like the Black Tortoise Realm."

"Wei Tuxian, I originally planned to wait until you died of old age before I took control of the entire Black Tortoise Realm. But now, there’s no need for that!"

"For this Golden Divine Source Fruit, giving up the Black Tortoise Realm is a worthy trade!"

A vicious light flashed in the Manor Master of Wanhua Manor’s eyes. His body contorted and he transformed into a terrifying Dragon Demon standing two and a half meters tall. It was covered in a layer of black Dragon Scales, possessed the head of a Demon Dragon, a humanoid torso, a pair of black dragon wings, and a long dragon tail, and it exuded the oppressive might of a Demon King.

"A Void Demon King!!"

The moment Wei Tuxian saw the incomparably terrifying Dragon Demon, his eyes narrowed. A grave look flashed across his face as he spoke, enunciating each word.

In the Black Tortoise Realm, Wei Tuxian was a nearly invincible existence. More than five Void Demon Dukes had met a brutal end at his fists.

Not a single Void Demon Duke had ever made Wei Tuxian feel such terrifying pressure. Only a legendary Void Demon King, a being capable of contending with Divine Spirits, could possess such power.

Shu Feng’s eyes narrowed, a grave look flickering within them. ’A Void Demon King! It’s actually a Void Demon King!’

Void Demon Kings were terrifying experts on the Divine Level. In a neutral zone like the Erosion Realm, any Void Demon King could do battle with a Divine Spirit.

In the Void Demon Realm, ordinary Divine Spirits were even less of a match for those Void Demon Kings.

Only in a world of their own birth, where they held Authority, could those Divine Spirits suppress a Void Demon King.

For a Void Demon King to appear here was enough to drive one to despair. After all, the Black Tortoise Realm had been eroded by the Void Demon Realm for over a century, which meant that Void Demon Kings could already unleash a portion of their combat power here.

Even if they could only unleash a small fraction of their combat power, a Void Demon King’s strength still far surpassed that of a Void Demon Duke, making them an incredibly terrifying enemy.

Behind the Void Demon King, the clothes on the four experts exploded as they transformed. They became four Void Demon Dukes from the Dragon Demon Clan, each with dragon horns sprouting from their heads and their bodies covered in a layer of Dragon Scales.

Any single Void Demon Duke possessed the terrifying power to destroy a small nation. A Void Demon King plus four Void Demon Dukes—such a force was practically invincible within the Black Tortoise Realm.

"Allow me to introduce myself. I am King Jiale of the Dragon Demon Clan. Wei Tuxian, Han Feng, you are both quite outstanding and possess immense potential. Are you interested in joining my ranks and serving me?"

"As long as you pledge your allegiance to me, I can bestow upon you a more powerful Void Demon Transformation Ceremony and turn you into Void Demon Dukes! If you do, each of you will gain a lifespan exceeding ten thousand years!"

King Jiale smiled faintly, arrogance and contempt flickering in his eyes as he spoke in a relaxed tone.

Void Demon Kings were terrifying experts on the Divine Level. In their eyes, the members of the Human Race were all inferior beings, completely unworthy of being considered their equals.

Throughout the Black Tortoise Realm, countless Martial Saints, upon hearing they could become Void Demon Dukes through a transformation ceremony, had willingly fallen into demonhood and become lapdogs for the Void Demons.

"King Jiale! If you had stayed obediently on the Void Demon Battlefield, I might not have been your match. But since you’ve come here to die, then today I will slay a Void Demon King!"

A cold glint flashed in Wei Tuxian’s eyes as his Profound Qi began to boil. Amidst a series of sharp CRACKLES and POPS, his body rapidly swelled by a full size. The wrinkles on his face vanished completely, and his long, white hair turned a glossy jet-black.

In the span of a single breath, Wei Tuxian transformed from a small, white-haired, decrepit old man on the verge of dying from old age into a tall and sturdy middle-aged man, his combat power restored to its peak.

"The Locking Essence Secret Technique? You short-lived humans are truly pathetic. A mere century has pushed you to this point. Even if you’ve returned to your peak state, how long can you fight like this? If you were to join our Void Demon Clan, you wouldn’t have such problems."

A trace of pity flashed in King Jiale’s eyes as he spoke in a light tone.

"This state is more than enough to kill you!!"

A cold glint flashed in Wei Tuxian’s eyes. He unleashed the Eight Immortal Slaying Techniques, blasting out a Heaven Opening strike. It drew in all the Vitality within a ten-li radius, imbued with a terrifying Martial Arts True Intent capable of slaughtering a True Immortal, and hurtled directly toward King Jiale.

"A Celestial Realm Martial Saint! Is that all there is?!"

King Jiale smiled nonchalantly and threw a punch. His attack also drew in the Demonic Qi from a ten-li radius, forming a Demon Fist that could destroy and suppress anything in its path as it crushed down from above.

BOOM!!

With a terrifyingly loud explosion, Wei Tuxian—the number one expert under the heavens who had defended War Immortal City for a century, like an invincible Martial God—was sent flying back dozens of meters, his body like a broken ragdoll.
