Cut off my way home? You'll sacrifice the entire other world in return!

The beam of light dissipated.

The top of Changyang Mountain has been leveled.

The smoke and dust cleared.

Xing Tian stood there quietly, maintaining his chopping posture.

He was standing in front of him.

Li Fan……....

Still standing.

Although there wasn't a single good piece of flesh on his body, his skin was charred black and his bones were exposed.

But he remained standing.

At the center of his forehead.

There was an extra red mark.

That was the word "war".

Its ancient and vigorous appearance exudes an inextinguishable flame.

"Huff... Huff..."

Li Fan's breathing was very weak.

But he smiled.

Although that smile was uglier than a cry.

"I... didn't fall."

Xing Tian retrieved his giant axe.

He looked at Li Fan's mouth, which had split open in an arc above his navel.

That was real laughter.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Good lad!"

"They really held on!"

"So what if it's a demon?"

"As long as the will to fight remains, one is a god of war!"

Xing Tian walked up to Li Fan.

He reached out and gently patted Li Fan's head, but this time it was very light; he was patting his own junior.

"This mark is called Unyielding."

"It is my origin."

"As long as you're not dead yet."

"The more serious your injuries, the stronger your fighting spirit will be."

"The greater your power, the stronger you become."

"This is what it means to become stronger with each battle."

Li Fan felt the burning power between his eyebrows.

That power flowed throughout the body along the meridians.

The depleted demonic energy was revitalized by this fighting spirit.

It is even more refined and violent than before.

"Thanks."

Li Fan clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"What are you thanking me for?"

Xing Tian waved his hand.

"You earned this yourself."

"By the way, your little follower is having a great time eating next door."

"Do you want to go take a look?"

"A frog?"

Li Fan was stunned for a moment.

"That guy didn't die from overeating?"

"Too full to death?"

Xing Tian chuckled.

"That old devil Taotie is known for his enormous appetite."

"Your toad probably doesn't even recognize you anymore."

…………

the other side.

Beside the bottomless abyss.

"belch."

A burp rang out.

Frog Taoist lay sprawled on the ground.

Its size is no longer the size of a palm.

Instead...

Like a small mountain.

It has already gnawed half of that Divine Iron Mountain.

"Quack! I can't eat anymore, I can't eat anymore!"

The Frog Taoist touched his round belly with a pained yet blissful expression.

"This iron is really hard."

"But it smells so good."

next to.

Taotie was picking its teeth with a bone.

"This is nothing!"

"You're already unable to finish just half a meal?"

"Young people these days are really getting worse with each generation."

Taotie kicked Frog Taoist.

"Get up and keep eating!"

"To master the ability to devour the heavens and the earth, you must first train your stomach."

"If you can't even digest this little bit, don't go out and say you're my apprentice."

"Master... have mercy..."

Frog Taoist had a mournful face.

"I feel like my stomach is going to explode."

"It exploded?"

Taotie let out a cold laugh.

"It's perfect to blow it up."

"The one that grows back after being blown up is the strongest."

"Open your mouth!"

Taotie grabbed a piece of iron rock and stuffed it directly into the frog Taoist's mouth.

"Mmm... mmm..."

Frog Taoist was forced to start operating.

As it swallowed painfully, the demonic energy within its body underwent a dramatic transformation.

It was originally just a simple act of devouring.

Now, any substance that enters will be instantly broken down into the purest form of energy.

This is the secret of the Taotie clan: the endless stomach.

…………

Back to Changyang Mountain.

Li Fan bid farewell to Xing Tian.

Although his current condition is still very poor, with the Sun Chasing Leg and the indomitable fighting spirit, he at least has the ability to protect himself.

"Next stop, where to?"

Li Fan looked at the vast wilderness.

"Go find Yu the Great."

The voice of the Earth God rang in his ears; the old man seemed to be everywhere.

"Your round plate needs a magic needle as its core to be repaired."

"Yu the Great was at the Flood Control Platform."

"The floodwaters there are perfect for washing away the smell of blood from your clothes."

"Yu the Great..."

Li Fan nodded.

"Understood."

He carried Taiyi and Niannian on his back.

He glanced at the headless figure on the mountaintop and took a deep breath.

"Thanks, God of War."

"I'll come back and have a drink with you after I've destroyed the main god."

Xing Tian remained silent.

He simply raised the giant axe in his hand.

He waved it at the sky.

Li Fan turned around and started the Sun Chasing Step.

It turned into a streak of light and disappeared into the horizon.

The second stage of the Mountain and Sea Divine Road has been passed.

The will to fight has been ignited, and the demon god has risen again.
