With half a game of chess, I vanquish all demons!

puff~

Zhao Yao San broke through the water's surface and jumped into the Ascension Pool.

Ascending into the water, the jade armor on the three bodies scattered into jade radiance, then reformed into jade-colored long staffs, which were held in the hands of each of them.

Below, bubbles continuously rose from the massive, golden body, and a pitch-black cube, like an insatiable maw, gnawed at its flesh.

The three bodies swam towards Jin Xing in the water, using the jade staff in their hands to poke at Jin Xing's body, and sank down to a bright spot below.

Jin Xing seemed to have lost the will to live due to the torment, or perhaps he was not quite lucid and had stopped struggling and resisting.

Inside the pitch-black Rubik's Cube, Zhao Er seized the opportunity and steered the cube to the metal side.

Sigh~

Sigh~

The Rubik's Cube kept spinning, and as it sliced ​​through the haphazard space, the central part of the metal body was instantly shattered into fragments.

Sizzle~

A single core of the Sun-Swallowing Celestial Dog demon was revealed from the shattered flesh, and after being corroded by the Ascension Water, it emitted dense bubbles.

Seeing this, Zhao Er suddenly reached out and grabbed the Sun-Devouring Heavenly Dog Demon Core, separating it from his golden body.

Under the push of the jade staffs held by the three figures above, the motionless Jin Xing and Zhao Yao's four bodies fell into the light below and plunged into the desolate lower realm.

The lower realm of barren rocks.

Call ~

In a location far from the mountain demon tribe, Zhao Yaosi, with his enormous golden body and accompanied by a gust of wind, descended from the sky and smashed into the rocky ground, creating a crater.

bang~

Inside the pit, Zhao Yao retrieved the jade staff and the Rubik's Cube, and manipulated the other three bodies to grab Jin Xing's hands and feet, while his main body came to Jin Xing's head.

Looking down at Jin Xing's blank face, he guessed that he had completely broken down and lost the will to live.

Despite this, Zhao Yao showed him no pity.

As the saying goes, cause and effect are cyclical, and retribution is inevitable.

This is the result that Jin Xing deserves!

His thoughts flashed, and a jade-colored greatsword materialized in his hand. He raised it high and plunged it heavily into Jin Xing's neck!

Clang!

He thought he could easily sever his head, just like he had when he killed the demigod Silver Deer.

Unexpectedly, amidst the sparks, the jade-colored greatsword's blade shattered, and only half of the golden-faced man's neck was severed.

"Hmm~"

Jin Xing winced in pain, letting out a muffled groan. His square pupils trembled slightly, his gaze sharpening as if he were regaining his will to survive.

Zhao Yao's expression hardened. He gripped the jade-colored greatsword tightly, re-condensed the sword's edge, and raised it high once more. At the same time, he drew upon divine power to sharpen the jade sword.

puff!

This time it went incredibly smoothly, and Jin's head was severed.

However, just like when the Silver Deer was killed before, the powerful vitality caused the Golden Nature to grow a head again.

Zhao Yao had anticipated this, so it wasn't surprising.

He used the same method as before, channeling divine power to imbue the jade sword with a sharp edge, and then slashed down again.

puff~

puff~

puff~

Sword after sword, the scene of killing the Silver Deer was replayed.

puff~

In the end, Jin Xing finally died after nine heads were severed, and a large amount of blood gushed from the severed neck.

This is because the bronze warrior had a lot of life force consumed in the Ascension Pool, which is why only nine heads were cut off; otherwise, there should have been far more.

Seeing that he had completely killed the bronze warrior, Zhao Yao finally opened his mouth and let out a deep breath.

"Phew~"

It's too hard to kill, it's just too hard to kill!

If this guy hadn't been tortured to the point of wanting to die and no longer resisting, it would probably have taken even more effort.

Zhao Yao stood still, his chest heaving, adjusting his breathing and relaxing for a while before regaining his focus.

He had reviewed the footage before. This guy had exhausted a magical technique called "Fellow Daoist, Please Stay" during his previous battle with Yan Rouyun, so he wasn't at full strength when fighting him.

Even at half health, he's still so hard to kill...

Ultimately, it's because I'm too weak.

Zhao Yao recalled the image of Yan Rouyun's death in battle and warned himself that he must never allow such a thing to happen again.

Perhaps it's a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.

The Jin Xing technique, "Fellow Daoist, please wait," not only stops the enemy's steps but also inflicts misfortune upon them.

It was perhaps precisely because of this added misfortune that the demonic blood within Yan Rouyun's body, which was undergoing an upward transformation, mutated. The perfectly good phoenix demonic blood was forcibly transformed into nine-phoenix demonic blood, which could also be called ghost chariot demonic blood.

It was because of the demon blood of the ghost carriage that Yan Rouyun unexpectedly gained a chance to work in the underworld.

Otherwise, she would really be dead!

Yun'er, did you see that? This is the second offering, and the most important one is yet to come...

Zhao Yao silently recited these words in his heart, standing there for a long time.

He slowly withdrew from his turmoil, gazed at the corpse before him, composed himself, and solemnly recited:

"Miraculous Technique: Divine Sense!"

A transparent, giant hand of divine consciousness appeared in the air and grabbed the headless corpse of the bronze warrior.

Buzz buzz buzz buzz~

He withdrew Zhao Yi's body, who was standing to the side, and extracted five Yuan Qi figures, which then possessed and merged with his body. His body, which was originally at the second level of the Black Iron Realm, expanded and grew taller again, propelling him to the peak of the second level of the Black Iron Realm.

Then, he used his divine sense to grasp the bronze warrior's corpse, squeezed and drained it, and used its blood to drench himself, absorbing the mysterious substance within the blood.

Call ~

A gentle breeze caressed my chest.

His body underwent a mysterious change, and the key to the path from the peak of the Black Iron Realm to the demigod realm was silently unlocked.

crackling sounds~

With a series of cracking sounds from his joints, his height, which was already at the peak of the Black Iron Realm at 9.98 meters, suddenly broke through, reaching the height of a demigod warrior of over 9.99 meters.

At the same time, his jet-black skin, as dark as cast iron, slowly faded and turned into a bronze color like wheat. Boundless vitality, like a gushing hot spring, welled up from his body, washing away the heat and making him feel warm and comfortable.

Nourished by this seemingly inexhaustible vitality, his hair gradually turned fiery red, as did his eyes. His appearance underwent subtle changes, gradually revealing a masculine allure that was full of virile charm.

bang~

Zhao Yao casually tossed aside the bronze warrior's corpse, stretched his body, twisted his neck, closed his eyes, and quietly felt the new state.

The first change he noticed was in his genitals.

He possessed the demonic blood of the Acacia Ape, which already gave him strong desires. Now, with the added power of the demigod warrior's reproductive abilities, his desires were becoming increasingly uncontrollable.

This was also evident in his physical characteristics, which remained unchanged, as if that area was naturally hard.

"Sigh~"

Zhao Yao took a deep breath and, with his strong willpower, forcefully suppressed the inner turmoil caused by the abnormality in his body.

He opened his eyes and looked at the nine human heads on the ground, his fiery red pupils oozing blood.

Drops of blood fell from the sky, landing on the nine pairs of eyes of the nine heads.

He operated as before, and soon the head withered and turned to ash, giving birth to nine pairs of people with pupils.
