Devouring demons, I attain immortality.

Amidst the skepticism of the crowd, the young man, who called himself a demon hunter, shamelessly embarked on his journey to hunt demons.

But fate is cruel; once this person left, he vanished without a trace, never to return.

As time went by, people gradually came to understand.

That young man was nothing but a fake, a mere imposter, not at all the legendary demon hunter who struck fear into the hearts of monsters.

However, the legend of the demon hunter did not disappear as a result.

Instead, the story spread far and wide near Fumo Town, becoming increasingly mysterious and unpredictable.

During this time, Lin An quietly returned to Fumo Town.

He was very familiar with those charlatans who had recently been using his name to swindle and deceive people.

But he didn't care at all.

In Lin An's view, these people were courting death, and it had nothing to do with him.

After a period of frenzied hunting in Wan Yao Mountain, the demons had long since come to hate the demon hunters to the core, wishing they could tear them to pieces.

Since someone dares to impersonate a demon hunter and provoke the demons, then don't blame the demons for launching a frenzied attack and killing these reckless fools.

Lin An was only concerned with improving his own strength.

So after a brief stop, he returned to Wan Yao Mountain without stopping to continue his hunting expedition.

In the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, after experiencing several farces of being deceived by imposter demon hunters, the other cultivators have become more cautious.

They gradually realized that true demon hunters never ask for payment.

The demon hunters are elusive and their whereabouts are unpredictable.

No one knows when or where the demon hunter will appear.

But as long as the demon hunters appear, they will surely bring devastating blows to the demons.

For a time, many cultivators on Ten Thousand Demon Mountain were filled with curiosity about the identity of the demon hunter.

Everyone is eager to unravel this mystery and find out who he really is.

On this day, Lin An found a quiet and secluded valley.

It is surrounded by mountains and shaded by green trees.

It was so quiet that only the occasional birdsong and the babbling of the stream could be heard.

This place is secluded and rarely visited, making it the perfect spot for him to break through his current level.

After hunting demons for some time, he accumulated a massive amount of spiritual energy.

Now, he is about to use the power of these spiritual energy points to break through his current realm.

Lin An sat cross-legged on a huge rock in the valley.

He cleared his mind of all distractions and took a deep breath.

Immediately afterwards, all of his spiritual energy was released without reservation.

In an instant, his body shone brightly.

A rich spiritual energy converged upon him like a surging tide.

His cultivation level skyrocketed like a rocket.

Under the baptism of spiritual energy, Lin An's meridians were continuously widened, and his spiritual power became increasingly vigorous.

breakthrough!

Peak of Foundation Establishment Stage!

Finally, he successfully broke through to the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage!

He's only one step away from reaching the Core Formation stage!

"good!"

Lin An slowly opened his eyes, his eyes gleaming with confidence.

He sensed the change in his own strength.

He was very satisfied with the current combat strength.

Immediately afterward, Lin An muttered to himself, "At this level, let alone demons in the Enlightenment Realm, I could easily annihilate even demons in the Awakening Realm!"

However, just as Lin An was immersed in the joy of breaking through his realm,

Suddenly, a mournful cry for help came from the nearby jungle.

Has someone been attacked by demons again?

Lin An's heart tightened.

Without hesitation, they sped off toward the source of the sound.

When he arrived, he saw a group of demons surrounding several young men and women.

These young men and women were dressed in fine clothes, and it was clear that they came from distinguished backgrounds.

They emanated faint spiritual energy fluctuations, clearly indicating they were cultivators.

The one with the highest cultivation level was only at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, while most of the others were still at the Body Refinement stage.

Faced with a large group of demons at the Enlightenment Realm, they appeared so small and helpless, barely able to defend themselves, and their lives were in constant danger.

The demons bared their fangs and roared wildly, displaying their rampant arrogance.

Leading the group was a massive Crimson Flame Leopard, its body engulfed in raging flames.

Each roar was accompanied by a scorching wave of air, sending chills down one's spine.

Its eyes gleamed with a bloodthirsty light as it stared intently at its prey, as if waiting for the perfect moment to strike.

"roar!"

The Crimson Flame Leopard could no longer contain itself and pounced forward.

Sharp claws, accompanied by a whistling sound, hurtled straight at a young man in the Body Refinement Realm.

The man was so frightened that his face turned pale and his legs went weak.

The longsword in his hand trembled.

Seeing the Crimson Flame Demon Leopard rushing towards him, the man still swung his longsword fiercely, trying to block it.

But the opponent was simply too fierce.

He was completely unable to withstand this fatal blow.

"Be careful!"

The woman next to her cried out in alarm, but there was nothing she could do.

Suddenly, the man felt a strong, fishy stench hit him.

"what!"

He let out a scream.

At the same time, a chill ran through me.

He realized that he might die here!

At this critical moment.

Lin An appeared before everyone in an instant, like a bolt of lightning.

The Nine-Turn Demon-Slaying Blade in his hand gleamed with a cold light.

With a sudden swing, a sharp blade of light flashed, severing the Crimson Flame Leopard's claws.

The Crimson Flame Leopard cried out in pain.

They retreated in a sorry state.

"It's a demon hunter!"

A young woman exclaimed in surprise.

Despite this, Lin An did not hesitate at all.

He swung his sword again and charged towards the demon horde.

His figure moved freely among the demons, each swing of his sword accompanied by the demons' screams and splattering blood.

Under his attack, the demons fell one after another, and the encirclement was gradually torn apart.

However, just when everyone thought the crisis was about to be over, an even stronger gust of wind swept in from behind.

Lin An was startled and immediately realized that an even more powerful enemy had appeared.

He turned around abruptly.

A gigantic wolf demon was pouncing at him, baring its fangs and claws.

This wolf demon was three zhang tall, covered in black fur, and exuded a strong demonic aura.

Its eyes gleamed red, filled with murderous intent.

"It's a wolf demon at the Awakening Realm!"

A disciple from a prominent family cried out in terror.

This wolf demon is incredibly powerful; every attack it makes carries an overwhelming force.

Its claws, like sharp daggers, viciously clawed at Lin An's back.

Lin An showed no sign of panic; on the contrary, he became even more excited.

"Perfect! Let me test just how strong I really am against an Awakening Realm demon!"

With keen intuition.

He swiftly drew the Nine-Turn Demon-Slaying Blade and swung it in a single strike.

Click!

A crisp sound rang out, and Lin An severed both of the wolf demon's claws with a single strike.

The wolf demon let out a painful howl.

It never expected that this seemingly ordinary human was so powerful.

"Trying to run? Not so easy!"

Lin An snorted coldly, and with a flash, he chased after them like a shadow.

He raised the knife in his hand again.

Filled with boundless killing intent, it fiercely stabbed at the wolf demon's body.

puff!

The blade pierced the wolf demon's body, splattering blood everywhere.

The wolf demon's body slowly collapsed.

Lin An successfully killed the wolf demon in the Awakening Realm.

They obtained its demon core and put it into their possession.
