Meng Tianzheng looked at everyone and slowly said, "However, there are also different opinions within the alliance regarding the Ninth Fortress. This is a bridgehead against the Heavenly Demons, and its importance is paramount. Entrusting it to a newly emerging force may not be convincing to the public."

"Therefore, the Alliance issued the final trial."

"Within half a month, you must kill five Heavenly Demons at the fourth level of the Hongmeng Realm and present their original cores as proof."

"If you succeed, the defense of the Ninth Fortress will be entirely yours; if you fail, the Alliance will send another strongman to take over this place!"

As soon as Meng Tianzheng finished speaking, the ruins fell silent.

Slaying five Heavenly Demons at the fourth level of the Primordial Chaos Realm?
Still within half a month?
"Isn't this a scam?!"

Lin Dong was the first to jump up. "What kind of existence is a Heavenly Demon at the fourth level of the Primordial Realm? Each one is comparable to a regional overlord, extremely cunning, and possesses overwhelming combat power! Let alone killing one, even finding one is as difficult as ascending to heaven!"

"You want us to kill five heads in half a month? How is that even possible!"

Ye Fan's brows furrowed tightly.

He was confident.

However, he was also aware of the gap between himself and the fourth level of Hongmeng.

He had been at a disadvantage when he fought Qin Yu before.

Demons of the same realm are often more troublesome and fearless than cultivators.

This task is extremely difficult.

Meng Tianzheng sighed, "I know this is a difficult task. But it is the result of a power struggle and compromise among the major factions within the alliance, and it cannot be changed."

"The forces behind Qin Yu are far more complex than they appear on the surface. In addition, there are many powerful figures from the Immortal Against the Heavens Great World, the Sealed Heaven Great World, the Emperor Overlord Great World, and the Eternal Life Great World involved. Although they cannot directly force you to relinquish the Ninth Great Pass, they have taken this opportunity to set up this almost insurmountable threshold for you."

He looked at Zhao Feng and said solemnly, "As far as I know, among you, only you have the strength to confront a powerhouse at the fourth level of the Hongmeng Realm head-on."

"Even so, hunting down five demons of the same level within half a month is still a matter of life and death."

All eyes were on Zhao Feng.

The key to this matter lies with him.

Ye Fan was about to speak.

But Zhao Feng calmly said, "I accept."

Ye Fan and Lin Dong were both stunned.

They guessed that Zhao Feng would agree, but they didn't expect him to be so decisive.

"Brother Zhao, this is no small matter. You must not act rashly!" Ye Fan hurriedly advised.

Zhao Feng simply waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to say anything more.

He looked at Meng Tianzheng and said, "Slaying the Heavenly Demon is the duty of those guarding the border. Even if the alliance hadn't said anything, I would have done it."

Meng Tianzheng remained silent for a moment, then finally nodded, "Alright! Since you are so confident, I will await your good news."

then.

He took a step forward, and his figure returned to the immortal warship.

Boom!

The warship turned around, tore through the void, and disappeared.

On the ruins of the Ninth Fortress, Lin Dong couldn't help but speak up, "Isn't this blatantly a trap?"

"Which of the Heavenly Demons at the fourth level of the Primordial Realm isn't a powerful demon king who reigns supreme in his region? They are cunning, treacherous, and vicious by nature. Finding even one is extremely difficult, let alone hunting one down!"

"Kill five heads in half a month? That's simply a fantasy!"

Ye Fan's brows furrowed into a knot.

He looked at Zhao Feng with a serious expression, "Brother Zhao, this matter is of utmost importance. To complete this mission, we must venture deep into the heart of the Heavenly Demon Realm, where dangers lurk everywhere and demon kings are rampant. If we are surrounded, the consequences will be unimaginable."

He sighed, looking rather helpless.

"Unfortunately, my true body is still in that eternally unknown depths, fighting alongside Huang and the others, unable to extricate itself. The current avatar's strength is at its limit of the third level of the Primordial Chaos Realm. Even if I fight with all my might, I am no match for a fourth-level Heavenly Demon."

Xiao Yan and Lin Dong both frowned.

Although they arrived in their true forms, their strength was limited, and they were powerless to fight against beings at the fourth level of the Primordial Chaos Realm.

In a short time.

All eyes were on Zhao Feng.

Ye Fan couldn't help but suggest, "Brother Zhao, why don't we call some more people over? People like Hong Yi are top-tier experts. With their help, our chances of winning will be much greater."

Zhao Feng simply waved his hand, his expression indifferent, "No need, I am sufficient on my own."

Seeing that Zhao Feng was determined, Ye Fan didn't try to persuade him any further. "Alright! Since you've made up your mind, then we brothers will stay here and support you!"

"Remember, if things go wrong, retreat immediately. We'll risk our lives to get you back!"

That's all.

He told Zhao Feng in detail all the information he knew about the demons in this area.

"On the other side of this World Sea lies the 72nd War Zone of the Heavenly Demons, ruled by a powerful figure known as the 'Black Abyss Demon Lord,' whose strength is unfathomable and has reached the peak of the fifth level of the Primordial Chaos Realm."

"Under his command are six demon generals, all of whom are terrifying beings at the fifth level of the Primordial Chaos Realm."

"Further down are the thirty-seven Demon Kings, each with the cultivation level of the fourth level of the Primordial Chaos Realm. They each occupy a territory and are constantly fighting each other, creating chaos."

……

Zhao Feng silently made a note of it.

He nodded to Ye Fan and the others, "Thank you. I'll need your help here after I leave."

With a swift movement, he transformed into a streak of light and rushed straight out of the Ninth Fortress, crossing alone the invisible boundary that separated order and chaos.

They sped towards that terrifying territory shrouded in endless demonic energy.

Ye Fan, Lin Dong, and Xiao Yan stood side by side on the city wall, watching the figure disappear into the depths of the surging demonic energy, remaining silent for a long time.

……

The moment one steps into the Heavenly Demon Territory, the surrounding laws of heaven and earth undergo drastic changes.

The void here is no longer stable; it is constantly twisting, collapsing, and reforming amidst the chaotic demonic energy.

The earth was dark red.

It seemed to have been soaked in endless blood for billions of years, emitting a nauseating stench.

There were no sun, moon, or stars in the sky, only enormous, bottomless cracks from which chaotic demonic energy capable of eroding the soul poured out.

The air was filled with a violent, insane, and destructive will.

It was constantly impacting Zhao Feng's mind.

Zhao Feng stood in the sky above this chaotic world, his expression indifferent.

He knew.

With his cultivation at the second level of the Primordial Chaos Realm, if he were to openly hunt down a demon king at the fourth level of the Primordial Chaos Realm, it would be like a torch in the dark night, instantly attracting an endless siege from the heavenly demons.

At that time.

Let alone completing the mission, whether I can even get back alive is a question.

Therefore, we must change our approach.

With a thought, Zhao Feng's body twisted rapidly, growing to be over ten feet tall, with two horns on his head and strange black demonic patterns appearing on his skin.

Impressively.

He actually transformed into a Heavenly Demon at the early stage of the Second Heaven of the Primordial Chaos.

Having cultivated to Zhao Feng's level, he had long since mastered all kinds of supernatural powers and techniques.

The change that is now being implemented is a transformation from the inside out.

Even a powerful expert at the Demon Lord level, standing before him, would likely fail to detect anything amiss without a thorough examination. He is now a genuine Heavenly Demon!

After doing all this, Zhao Feng's figure flickered, and he flew towards the direction where the demonic energy was dense in the distance.

Instead of rushing to find the demon kings of the fourth level of the Primordial Chaos Realm, he set his sights on the celestial demons of the first and second levels of the Primordial Chaos Realm.

It is 300,000 light-years away from Zhao Feng.

In a mountain range formed by countless skeletons, a celestial demon resembling a giant scorpion, at the first level of the Primordial Chaos realm, is devouring the corpse of a god-king.

Sudden.

It sensed something and suddenly raised its head.

A dark figure descended from the sky, and a large hand shrouded in pure demonic energy grabbed it.

"you……"

The giant scorpion demon only had time to utter a single word before it was crushed into dust by the terrifying power erupting from that giant hand.

The pure essence and energy of the demonic path were completely devoured by Zhao Feng.

Without lingering, he vanished from the spot in a flash.

In the world of the Heavenly Demons, the law of the jungle prevails, and it is perfectly normal for the strong to devour the weak.

Zhao Feng's actions did not cause any disturbance.

Over the next few days, he roamed the territories of various demon kings, constantly hunting down lone celestial demons.

Wherever he went, the demons he targeted, along with all the resources they had plundered, vanished.

The plundered energy and resources were continuously fed into the Chaos Pearl, becoming nourishment for the growth of the Qin Realm.

As the Qin Realm's origin continues to grow, Zhao Feng's own strength is also steadily increasing at a terrifying rate.

Early stage of the second level of the Primordial Chaos Realm... Middle stage... Late stage...

In just ten days, he had already touched the threshold of the third level of the Primordial Chaos.

Gradually, a rumor began to circulate among the territories of several demon kings in the vicinity.

It is said that a mysterious demonic expert has appeared, who targets the celestial demons under the command of other demon kings. He is ruthless and powerful, and seems to be a newly rising demonic prodigy.

This news also attracted the attention of powerful figures among the Heavenly Demons.

To know.

Most of the Heavenly Demons that Zhao sealed off were at the Hongmeng Realm, high-ranking members of the Heavenly Demons. Although their status was not as high as that of the Demon King, they were still regional lords.

With so many people mysteriously disappearing these days, it's hard not to take it seriously.

The Blood Swamp is the territory of Yu Linglong, one of the thirty-seven Demon Kings.

In the heart of the swamp, inside a palace built of bones and flesh, the atmosphere is oppressive.

A figure sat regally on the throne.

The figure looked exactly like a human woman, wearing a blood-red gauze dress as thin as a cicada's wing, with skin as white as snow and an exquisitely beautiful face.

just.

Her eyes were pure blood red, and she had two small black horns on her forehead, adding to her eerie appearance.

This person was none other than the Demon King Yu Linglong.

Among the thirty-seven demon kings at the fourth level of the Primordial Chaos Realm, her strength was relatively weak, and her territory was often invaded by other demon kings.

"Have you heard about that guy who's been killing so many Heavenly Demons lately?"

The Demon King Yu Linglong parted her lips slightly, her voice alluring and captivating, yet it sent chills down the spines of the several Hongmeng Third Heaven Demon Generals standing below.

"Reporting to the Demon King, I have heard something."

A demon general bowed in response.

"It is said that this demon has a mysterious origin, grows in strength extremely quickly, and acts without any scruples. Several powerful figures under the Demon King's command have already fallen at his hands."

Demon King Yu Linglong's eyes flashed, and she laughed, "Interesting. He dares to act recklessly under the noses of several Demon Kings and has not gotten into trouble yet. His strength has already earned my approval."

She ordered the demon generals below, "Go, find this Heavenly Demon."

“Tell him that I admire his courage. If he is willing to serve me, I can grant him endless resources and a position second only to mine.”

“If he knows what’s good for him, bring him to see me.”

"If he doesn't know what's good for him..."

Demon King Yu Linglong's voice suddenly turned cold, "Then bring his head back. I don't want him to become an ally of other demon kings."

"Yes, Lord Demon King!"

The demon generals dared not be negligent in the slightest. After receiving the order, they transformed into several streaks of demonic light and quickly disappeared outside the palace.

……

In a desolate meteorite belt.

Zhao Feng sat cross-legged, his body surging with demonic energy, refining the essence of a peak second-level Hongmeng Heavenly Demon he had just devoured.

Through continuous hunting and devouring, his cultivation level has been approaching the third level of the Primordial Chaos Realm. He only needs one more opportunity to break through completely.

He also realized that his recent actions had attracted the attention of the lord of this region.

This is exactly the result he wanted.

Well known.

For someone with no connections who wants to get into the system as quickly as possible, the best way is to be recruited!

Just then.

He suddenly opened his eyes.

In the distance, several powerful demonic energies were rapidly approaching his location from the void.

The visitor is not good.

Soon, those figures appeared in front of him and surrounded him.

The leading demon general sized Zhao Feng up and down before demanding, "So, what is your purpose in hunting down other demons these past few days?"

Zhao Feng slowly stood up, calmly looked at him, and sneered, "What are you to dare question me? Get lost!"

The demon general flew into a rage, "How dare you! I am General Chifeng under the command of the Demon King Yu Linglong! How dare you be so disrespectful!"

"Demon King Yu Linglong?" Zhao Feng laughed. "So what? If she doesn't like me, she can just take action herself. With just a few of you... I'm afraid you're no match for me."

Zhao Feng stepped forward. "If you have nothing else to say, then prepare to set off."

The demon general subconsciously took a step back and shouted, "Stop! We do not wish to be your enemy. We have come here because the Demon Lord admires your talent, strength and courage, and has specially sent us to recruit you."

"As long as you are willing to swear allegiance, the Demon King promises to do his utmost to cultivate you and make you a true power in this 72nd War Zone!"

He paused, then said, "Of course, you can refuse."

"However, I think you should be well aware of the consequences of refusing a demon king's offer."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Feng couldn't help but burst into laughter, "Interesting."

"Since this Demon King Yu Linglong is so sincere, I don't mind going to see for myself."

"Lead the way."

The demon generals were taken aback.

Seeing Zhao Feng's attitude, they thought he would refuse or even fight, but they never expected that Zhao Feng would agree to go so easily.

Although he was puzzled, remembering the Demon Lord's orders, he could only say, "This way, please." (End of Chapter)
