Chapter 288 The power of the Hundred Billion Key Emperor, the Sky-Stealing Demon Lord, and the Original Gem?
[Could it be that you are also——]

[Could it be that you are also——]

[Bai Ze slowly raised his head, and his eyes met with the Soul Refining Demon Lord in the air. The two exchanged secret signals instantly.]

[The message revealed by the Soul Refining Demon Lord's eyes: You actually knew that Yan Zong Bai Xiao would become a phoenix? ]

[Bai Ze immediately came up with a plan, raised his eyebrows, stuck out his tongue, and made a face at the Soul Refining Demon Lord: Old man, wait for death! ]

[“So this is the ability of the Observer Gem… Damn it!” The Soul Refining Demon Lord’s gaze suddenly focused, and his mind quickly recalled Bai Ze, the military advisor of the Xuanming Adventure Group. The murderous intent in his heart instantly burst out, and an invisible pressure spread. ]

[Yu Long, Yu Yao, Zi You, and Jiu Yue instantly felt a chill down their spines, and their hair stood on end. They instinctively leaped back, their weapons and abilities ready to go, their bodies tensed like bows, and instantly entered a state of stress.]

[“What a terrifying aura…” Jiu Yue said in a low voice with a solemn expression, a trace of cold sweat seeping out of his forehead.]

[She glanced around and felt that this time it was probably not a good thing.]

[The Soul Refining Demon Lord is the most dangerous and terrifying person in the universe, no doubt about it.]

[His incarnation can be anyone. Imagine that your closest comrade-in-arms, family member, or even your life partner suddenly turned into the corpse of the Soul Refining Demon Lord one day.]

[They live with you as usual, and you don't notice anything, or you realize something is wrong from the "details of life" at a certain moment, but when you look at the face that smiles at you, how should you face it? ]

Kill him, or be killed by him?

[No matter which one you choose, there is a high probability that you will become a demon corpse and become a puppet controlled by the Soul Refining Demon Lord. This fear, like an invisible chain, tightly entangles everyone's heart.]

[I have no control over my body, nor over my heart. Even death has become a luxury. 】

[Those with spiritual power lower than the purple gold level will never be able to escape the fate of being controlled by the Soul Refining Demon Lord. ]

[Faced with the Soul Refining Demon Lord's undisguised killing intent, Bai Ze was startled, but she quickly glanced at Master Yan beside her and instantly calmed down. She put her hands on her hips and straightened her flat apron.]

["What? You want to kill me?"]

[Bai Ze raised a provocative smile, and proudly raised the magic box in her hand, "Come on, if you have the guts, come here and fight. I want to see what you can do to me?"]

[The Soul Refining Demon Lord sneered, his eyes were filled with murderous intent, but his body remained motionless, obviously not daring to act rashly. His eyes were fixed on the magic box in Bai Ze's hand, and he was extremely afraid, but he didn't dare to show it.]

[With Bai Ze's wisdom, he must have been able to take out the original gemstone from the magic box. However, with Yan Zong Bai Xiao's speed, the purple gold demon corpse present is not sure that he can kill Yan Zong Bai Xiao instantly.]

[The birth of the phoenix only takes a moment. If he attacks now, he will only have a 70% chance of killing the white owl. It's not stable enough!]

[You ignorant child, let me let you run wild for a while! ]

[The Soul Refining Demon Lord cursed in his heart, but he still kept a cold smile on his face. For him, he would never make a move unless he was 98% sure.]

[When the person he shakes arrives...]

[However, Soul Refining Demon Lord didn't know that Bai Ze was extremely panicked at the moment and was just pretending to be calm. She had no means to open the magic box in advance. Once Soul Refining Demon Lord attacked Master Yan, the situation would be completely out of control.]

[First, I need to scare the Soul Refining Demon Lord. She thought to herself that she would have to use the power of this old man to destroy the magic box. Master Yan transformed into a phoenix and just killed them randomly. ]

[“What? Are you scared, old man? Go ahead!”]

【“Why don’t you do it?”】

[“You old fool, hiding in a dark corner and controlling puppets, what’s your ability? If you have the guts, come out in person. Don’t be a coward and only send some junk to embarrass yourself!”]

[The two of them were talking back and forth, testing each other. On the surface, they both looked confident, but the air was filled with tension, like a taut string that could break at any time.]

【Bai Ze chatters on and on.】

[How can the Soul Refining Demon Lord's eloquence compare to Bai Ze's "Keyboard Warrior" strength. Bai Ze is a man who fights against hundreds of millions of trolls on the Internet alone. He is known as the Keyboard King, and his words are sharp and every word hits the heart.]

[“Who do you think you are? You are just an old loser who makes a living by stealing and playing with corpses! How can there be a scum like you in such a big universe? You don’t even have the courage to fight head-on, and you dare to call yourself the Demon Lord? I think you are not even as good as a street thug!” Bai Ze’s voice became louder and louder, and he became more and more excited. ]

[“What’s wrong? Are you too angry to speak? Did I touch a sore spot? Old man, let me tell you, if you dare to touch me today, this day next year will be the anniversary of your death!”]

[The Soul Refining Demon Lord remained silent.]

[“Don’t dare?” Bai Ze raised his eyebrows, a scornful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, “Then kneel down and beg for mercy now. If I, Lord Bai Ze, am in a good mood, I might be merciful and accept you as a dog.”]

[She raised her hand and pretended to be elegant as she looked at her non-existent watch. "I'll give you three minutes to think about it. Remember, only three minutes. If it weren't for the fact that you, an old dog, still have some reputation in the interstellar world and could barely hold up the scene when you go out, do you think I would give you this opportunity?"]

【“你！”】

[A hoarse voice came out from deep in his throat. The Soul Refining Demon Lord was so angry that he pressed his palm hard, his nails dug deep into his palm, and blood dripped from his fingers onto the snow. He almost couldn't help but take action right now to crush this ignorant "dog thing" into powder.]

[However, when the Soul Refining Demon Lord saw the magic box containing the "Original Gem" in Bai Ze's hand...]

【Tolerate! 】

[Zi You's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he was screaming madly in the special channel of Feiyan Class: "Bai Ze, what are you doing? I'm going to be killed by you! Don't provoke him!"]

[Jiu Yue gritted her teeth, staring at the Soul Refining Demon Lord, her leopard-like body leaned forward slightly, the power of aurora circulated around her, "Dabai, have you contacted the principal?"]

【Yu Long, Yu Yao, and Zi You were stunned when they heard this, and all their eyes turned to Bai Ze. Seeing her calm expression and arrogant demeanor, the three of them felt relieved immediately - yes, the captain was praised by the principal Mu Yan as a cosmic conductor who "has a plan for everything". If she dared to provoke the Soul Refining Demon Lord like this, she must have had a perfect plan.】

[Moreover, with the captain's wisdom, how could she not see through the tricks of the "Soul Refining Demon Lord"? She must have already seen through the true identity of the Snow Ghost Elder, and used the trick against him, secretly setting up a trap.]

[At this moment, the periphery has probably been surrounded by the Galaxy Army, Principal Mu Yan, the Three Kings Star Generals and other powerful people. Even the Three Kings of Glory came in person to block the entire Blizzard Star.]

[As long as Captain Bai Ze snaps his fingers, these strong men will rush in like a tide and capture the incarnation of the Soul Refining Demon Lord in one fell swoop.]

[Unfortunately, the Soul Refining Demon Lord seemed to have also noticed Captain Bai Ze's plan, and the one in front of him was not his true form.]

【I see. 】

【It turns out that we are invincible! 】

[The three of them felt relieved, looked at each other, and smiled knowingly at the same time: "As expected of Captain Bai Ze!"]

【Yu Long looked at the Soul Refining Demon Lord's expression of "suppressing anger" and being in a dilemma, and his heart became more determined. He shouted to Bai Ze: "Captain, stop playing, snap your fingers quickly!"】

[“Snapping fingers” is Bai Ze’s signature move, representing “everything is under control”. This is not only her signature move, but also the action code of the Feiyan class. ]

[When sparring with other professionals at Galaxy University, as long as Bai Ze snaps his fingers, the winner is decided! ]

[“Ah?” Bai Ze coughed lightly, raised his hand and patted his forehead, revealing a trace of annoyance, “Yes, I can contact the principal.”]

Yu Long, Yu Yao, and Zi You froze in place for an instant, the smiles on their faces froze, and their jaws nearly dropped to the ground.

Yu Long's voice was trembling, and he almost shouted: "Brother, don't joke around at this time!"

【“Dabai!” Jiu Yue’s voice suddenly rose. 】

[“I really forgot.” Bai Ze spread his hands: “Don’t worry, I have just contacted the principal.”]

【“…” Yulong, Yuyao, Ziyou, September. 】

[What's the point of contacting the principal now? To collect our bodies? No, with their potential, they will definitely be refined into demon corpses by the Soul Refining Demon Lord! ] [Da. ]

[At this moment, the sound of footsteps came to everyone's ears. The air seemed to freeze. Everyone turned their heads stiffly and looked in the direction of the Soul Refining Corps.]

[The purple-gold demon corpses all had expressionless faces, like cold sculptures, and quietly took a step forward.]

[And where was the worry and fear on the face of the Soul Refining Demon Lord? Instead, there was a dead silence.]

[Everyone's heartbeats almost stopped. Zi You rushed forward and picked up the short Bai Ze. She tightly grasped her shoulders with both hands and shook her madly: "Think of a solution quickly!!!"]

[“Don’t panic!” Bai Ze was shaken until she felt dizzy. She struggled to break free from Zi You’s hands. She barely raised the magic box in her hand and raised her chin slightly. “With Master Yan here, he doesn’t dare to do anything.”]

【“Master Yan?!!” Everyone was stunned, and their eyes were all cast towards the figure in the front who had remained silent from beginning to end.】

[The air seemed to be filled with an invisible aura, and even the wind and snow stopped at this moment. The professionals of the Soul Refining Demon Lord Corps held their breath, their expressions solemn, and they were ready for battle, as if they were facing a great enemy.]

[Their eyes were fixed on Xiao Ying, alert for a ferocious beast that could explode at any time.]

[It was not until this moment that everyone suddenly realized that the Soul Refining Demon Lord Corps was hesitant to take action because they were afraid of not Bai Ze, nor the support of powerful people such as Principal Mu Yan, but Master Yan Bai Xiao! ]

[“They have so many purple-gold-level demon corpses, plus starships, and the remote assistance of the legendary “Intelligent Machinery Emperor”, the Soul Refining Demon Lord, and they are still not sure of killing Master Yan. How, how is this possible?!!”]

[Jiu Yue and Zi You's eyes moved back and forth between Xiao Ying and the Soul Refining Corps, and a storm was brewing in their hearts.]

[They knew nothing about Master Yan Bai Xiao's true strength. Seeing that the Soul Refining Corps clearly had an absolute advantage, they still did not dare to act rashly. It was obvious that they were afraid of Master Yan Bai Xiao.]

[In fact, Xiao Ying had never worn the "White Phoenix" for actual combat at Yinhe University, so Jiuyue and Ziyou always believed that although Master Yan was a great purple gold-level martial artist, his physical body and energy were limited by the original genes of his mother planet. Even after optimization, he could only reach the level of intermediate blue soul.]

[Master Yan often defeats the strong with the weak by virtue of his superb skills. Their bodies and professions have been rated as advanced blue souls. Even the three of them cannot touch the corner of Master Yan's clothes.]

[This also led to an obvious shortcoming of Master Yan - he actually doesn't like to use technology. ]

[At Yinhe University, Master Yan's hobbies, besides reading, are tasting delicious food. In the eyes of Jiuyue and Ziyou, such a side job is simply a waste of Yinhe University's unique knowledge resources.]

[To deal with this arrogant martial arts barbarian, a fifth-level Qingming mecha master only needs to mark out the territory and deploy firepower positions in advance, and he can defeat three or five opponents of higher levels. ]

[And the demon army before us is capable of fighting the Galactic Army head-on!!]

[This situation is completely beyond their understanding.]

[“You seem to know me…” Xiao Ying had already decided to release the body of the Blood Lotus Demon Lord. The Mechanical Weapon White Phoenix slowly wrapped around his body, and the silver-white robe armor took shape. He walked towards the Soul Refining Demon Lord step by step with a calm face.]

[“Of course.” The Soul Refining Demon Lord raised his hand and waved it gently, stopping the men behind him who were ready to move. He smiled, “You are the famous martial arts master of the Southern Universe in the future—Phoenix! Who in the entire universe doesn’t know you?”]

[“Southern Universe?” Xiao Ying frowned slightly.]

[“Oh, I forgot. There is no concept of ‘Southern Universe’ yet.” The Soul Refining Demon Lord chuckled. “When you establish the Yan Sect and create the era of martial arts, the Three Kings of Glory and the Four Gods of Apocalypse will use the center of the universe as the boundary and define the star field where you are active as - the Southern Universe.”]

[“The entire universe is divided into two halves because of your existence... What an amazing power.” The tone of the Soul Refining Demon Lord suddenly changed, with a hint of regret.]

[“But it’s such a pity that you, the great phoenix, died on this remote primitive planet before you could spread your wings. Many years later, no one will remember that the unknown person who died in the distant Milky Way was a phoenix!”]

【Whoosh! 】

[Behind the Soul Refining Demon Lord, the air twisted slightly, and a charming figure quietly emerged. It was a demon woman, her body curves were perfect to the point of being almost demonic, her tight white dress outlined every inch of her ups and downs, her waist was as slender as a willow, and her long legs were faintly visible under the slit skirt.]

[It turned out to be one of the Twelve Demon Lords—Demon Lord Stealing the Sky! ]

[The Sky-Stealing Demon Lord has a pair of devil horns on her head, which is a symbol of a high-level intelligent true demon. Her skin is as pale as snow, but it reveals a morbid beauty. She gently grabs Bai Ze, and an ordinary "gray stone" floats in her palm. ]

[“Is this the original gem that can fulfill all wishes? Why does it look like an ordinary stone?”]

[She looked around curiously, but didn't dare to touch the Primordial Gem. If anyone who failed the Primordial Gem test was not a radiant life form, they would die if they touched the Primordial Gem.]

[Bai Ze held the Box of Silence in her hand and stood there in a daze. Her heart was filled with turmoil. "Devil Thief of Heaven? Wasn't she imprisoned by the Moon Emperor a hundred years ago?"]

[After the Sky-Stealing Demon Lord took out the gray stone, the Silence Box opened. Xiao Ying's mind suddenly paused, and the vague runes on the magic box lit up slightly.]

[Xiao Ying suddenly realized that he didn't need to give up his identity as Yan Zong Bai Xiao.]

[The Box of Silence has long been opened by someone. It was opened by the Blue Soul Martial Artist in the history of the Snow Ghost Clan. As a descendant of the Ashbringer, he shouldered the responsibility of a guardian, but coveted the power of the Primordial Gem and eventually died.]

【The universe has already lost its balance and is heading towards destruction.】

[“Hey~~ You are the phoenix that Lianhun mentioned~~” The eyes of the Demon Lord Thief moved like water, and finally fixed on Xiao Ying. His red lips slightly opened, revealing a captivating smile. ]

[Her voice was as smooth as silk, with a hint of laziness, "When I saw you, my whole body became hot and I was extremely excited~~ I really don't want to kill you~"]

[As soon as the words fell, the air around them suddenly became thick, with a suffocating feeling of oppression.]

[A rare look of joy appeared on the face of the Soul Refining Demon Lord: "Hahaha! Success!"]

[The Soul Refining Demon Lord looked at Xiao Ying with pity in his eyes. He was silently mourning for a legend who was about to fall.]

[“Your legend has ended before it even began.”]

【“Oh.” Xiao Ying looked calm, not caring about what was happening before his eyes. He casually reached out and took the magic box from Bai Ze’s hand. His body swayed slightly, and in the next moment, he appeared beside the Heaven-stealing Demon Lord.】

[The ten demon corpses behind the Soul Refining Demon Lord had been prepared for a long time, leaving afterimages in the air and rushing straight towards Xiao Ying.]

[At the moment when the demon corpse approached, a brilliant white light suddenly burst out from Xiao Ying's body. The light was like the rising sun, pure and blazing, instantly dispelling the surrounding darkness.]

[Wherever the light passed, the body of the demon corpse melted like ice and snow, leaving not even a trace.]

[“This, this is… the power of the Phoenix!!”]

[The pupils of the Soul Refining Demon Lord suddenly shrank, and he stared at the Primordial Gem in the Sky Stealing Demon Lord's hand, "Impossible, impossible, you clearly didn't touch the Primordial Gem!! How could you awaken the power of the Phoenix?!"]

【"Primordial Gem?"】

[Xiao Ying smiled. He reached out and took the so-called "Original Gem" from the Heaven-Stealing Demon Lord. He gently squeezed it and the gem instantly turned into powder, which slowly drifted away in the air.]

[The first time he saw the Box of Silence, the "Rune of Destruction Power" that came to his mind was the real original gem.]

[The face of the Soul Refining Demon Lord turned pale instantly. He stared at the magic box in Xiao Ying's hand and finally came to his senses: "So... that box is the real original gem!"]

[He looked up at Xiao Ying, his eyes full of fear and disbelief. At this moment, Xiao Ying was surrounded by a faint white halo, like a god from ancient times, sacred and inviolable.]

[The Soul Refining Demon Lord thought about the next three thousand years of being a street rat, and only one thought remained in his mind - it's over! ]

[Xiao Ying put away his smile, raised his hand, and gently covered the charming and enchanting face of the Sky-stealing Demon Lord, which was enough to arouse primitive desire. His eyes were cold, as if he was looking at a lifeless dead object.]

【“You can all go die.”】
