Amidst the flashing golden light, the speed reached its limit. Xiao Xuanyuan was just above the Gaoji Mountains, but in the blink of an eye, he reappeared on the distant horizon.

A moment later, it completely disappeared into the horizon, vanishing without a trace. However, not long after Xiao Xuanyuan left, a massive black shadow that blotted out the sky flew from the horizon. It looked far away from a distance, but in an instant, it turned around and appeared on the Gaoji Mountain Range.

rumble!

Buzz!

This was a colossal behemoth; from the ground, its wingspan was a full seven or eight hundred feet, casting shadow even over the intricate mountain ranges below.

The strangest thing is that, apart from its neck and above being the blood-yellow color of the setting sun, its whole body is covered in dark brown feathers, and its pair of eyes are as big as basketballs. When it looks around, an extremely sharp edge seems to pierce through one's soul.

The beak of the drake was over ten zhang long and white. Its pair of claws beneath it were not only long and thick, but also twenty or thirty zhang long and extremely sharp. In the sunlight, they reflected a dazzling, eerie cold light.

This is a Remnant Sun Demon Crying Wither carrying the bloodline of an ancient Demon Crying Wither. It circled in the sky, emitting a loud, sharp, and piercing cry, and a dark color constantly shifted on its body.

In an instant, the enormous, sky-covering Demonic Remnant disappeared, leaving only a middle-aged man with a tall, muscular body, dressed in a wide, dark brown robe, who emerged from where the Demonic Remnant had been and descended towards the Xuan Tian Demonic Desolate Fruit plant below.

The middle-aged man, with an extremely robust physique and an ordinary face, but whose eyes shone with an incredibly sharp gaze, looked at the fruit plant from which the Xuan Tian Yao Huang Fruit had been picked. After glancing at it, he sniffed the air and then reappeared at the spot where the blue lizard demon beast had been crushed by Xiao Xuanyuan earlier.

"They wiped out my subordinates with a single move. What is the origin of this magical beast that broke in? Is it one of those seventh-tier magical beasts from the outer areas?"

Muttering something to himself, the middle-aged man's figure flickered, like ripples spreading out, disappearing into the distance and reappearing in front of the corpse of the giant green-black snake. Looking at his subordinate, whose internal organs had all been shattered, the middle-aged man's face turned extremely ugly.

He was killed in one move again. It seems that the magical beast that broke into his territory was no ordinary beast. It was already at the same level as him, an eighth-tier magical beast!

After a moment of contemplation, countless cold glints flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes. He then transformed into a massive, waning demon, instantly spreading its wings and soaring away. Its speed reached the sky in an instant, not lagging behind Xiao Xuanyuan at all.

After flying for most of the day, Xiao Xuanyuan felt exhausted. Being in this extreme flying and traveling mode was a huge strain on his body. After several days of non-stop travel, his body was already extremely tired. After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Xuanyuan decided to stop and rest.

Within this vast territory of eighth-tier magical beasts, apart from that one unknown eighth-tier magical beast that Xiao Xuanyuan could be wary of, there were almost no other magical beasts that could threaten him. Therefore, he rested with great peace of mind on the fork of a towering ancient tree that reached into the clouds.

Taking out a pill to restore his fire fighting spirit from his pocket, Xiao Xuanyuan immediately sat cross-legged and began cultivating and recovering high in the sky atop the ancient tree, gradually adjusting his condition to its peak.

Time passed by slowly, and before he knew it, Xiao Xuanyuan's energy, which had been depleted, gradually returned to its vigorous state. But at this moment, a sharp cry came from the distant sky, piercing through the vast space and time and suddenly entered Xiao Xuanyuan's ears, jolting him awake.

"who?"

Xiao Xuanyuan suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze fixed on the extremely distant horizon, where a massive black shadow had almost soared into the sky in the blink of an eye.

Chapter 41 Fierce Battle

A colossal, waning sun demonic horde appeared in the blink of an eye, its immense shadow covering the entire mountainous region and ancient forest where Xiao Xuanyuan was located.

Boo!

With a sharp cry, the Demon of the Setting Sun lashed out, its hundreds-of-foot-long wings suddenly flapped, and a massive tornado swept across the entire world, tearing apart all the surrounding space and crashing fiercely towards Xiao Xuanyuan.

"The Golden Cicada has vanished!"

With a leap, Xiao Xuanyuan vanished from his spot in a flash of golden light. The ensuing tornado not only tore apart the surrounding space but also destroyed and engulfed an entire mountain range and ancient forest.

Rumble!

With a single strike, as the Demonic Cry of the Setting Sun flapped its wing, the ancient forest where Xiao Xuanyuan had just been located, and the massive mountain range, were all reduced to a desolate ruin.

The destructive power of the attack from the eighth-tier magical beast, the Remnant Sun Demon Cry, was terrifying!

With a flash of golden light, Xiao Xuanyuan used the Golden Cicada Divine Concealment Technique, instantly disappearing from the ancient tree. When he reappeared, he was already above the enormous Remnant Sun Demon.

"The third move of the Mighty Sky-Supporting Fist: Clearing the Sky of Wind and Clouds!"

As soon as Xiao Xuanyuan appeared, he threw a quick punch, striking the back of the Desolate Sun Demon Cry. However, to his disappointment, the punch had little effect.

The feathers on the back of the massive body of the Remnant Sun Demon Crying Bird were extremely strong defensively. This fast punch only made its body sink a little, without causing much damage.

However, as someone who had already defeated his own peak-level shadow, Xiao Xuanyuan's reaction speed was incredibly fast. As soon as he unleashed the third move of the Mighty Sky-Supporting Fist, his figure vanished from his spot. Almost simultaneously, the feathers on the back of the Remnant Sun Demon Li Diao stood up one by one, shooting countless streams of azure light towards the spot where Xiao Xuanyuan had just stood, shattering the space above and revealing the deepest void.

"The fifth move of the Mighty Sky-Supporting Fist: Seven Soul-Eating Explosions!"

"The sixth move of the Mighty Sky-Supporting Fist: Demonic Dragon of the Eight Desolations!"

Another blinding golden light flashed, and Xiao Xuanyuan appeared above the head of the Remnant Sun Demon Li Diao, unleashing two powerful punches that struck the top of its head.

The Soul-Eating Seven Explosive Fist emphasizes a diffuse attack, splitting into countless fist beams and shadows that relentlessly smash into the massive head of the Remnant Sun Demon.

The Demonic Dragon Eight Desolations Fist condensed into a massive black dragon, roaring and howling as it lunged at the head of the Desolate Sun Demon. The terrifying energy it unleashed shattered the very space around it.

Although Xiao Xuanyuan moved extremely fast, the Remnant Sun Demonic Cry, being a peak eighth-tier magical beast, was also incredibly fast. Just as Xiao Xuanyuan's attack reached its massive head, its wings appeared instantly, blotting out the sky and casting a huge shadow over Xiao Xuanyuan, before it pounced with overwhelming force.

Bang bang bang!

Rumble!

boom!

Several voices rang out almost simultaneously. Xiao Xuanyuan's punch struck the head of the Remnant Sun Demon Li Diao, causing it to shake violently. He was also struck by the opponent's giant wings, and his battle qi shield was shattered in an instant, sending him flying.

Boom boom boom!

As the giant wings swept across, the void along the way trembled and shattered, and Xiao Xuanyuan was sent flying more than a hundred feet away.

At this moment, he finally understood how powerful this eighth-tier Remnant Sun Demon was. Not only was its speed comparable to his, but its defense was also extremely abnormal. His two powerful punches only made its big head shake twice before it quickly reacted and launched its strongest counterattack, causing his blood and qi to surge.

With his figure suspended in the sky, Xiao Xuanyuan quickly calmed his internal energy. His eyes flashed with sharp, cold light as he stared intently at the Remnant Sun Demon Li Diao opposite him and said, "I have never met you before. Why have you provoked me for no reason?"

The massive Demonic Remnant of the Setting Sun suddenly changed its light to a dazzling dark brown, and a burly middle-aged man with bulging muscles stood with his hands behind his back, appearing in front of Xiao Xuanyuan. His gaze was sharp as a hook, piercing Xiao Xuanyuan's body. "You killed two of my subordinates and stole the ten-thousand-year-old demon fruit that I ordered them to guard. And you still say you are innocent?"

"What a joke? This desolate mountain wilderness is full of spiritual herbs and plants growing on its own. They are unclaimed, so how can you claim them as yours? I picked them, and they belong to those who are destined to keep them. What crime have I committed?" Xiao Xuanyuan snorted coldly, his gaze icy and unyielding. "As for your two subordinates who attacked without cause, they can't blame me. They deserved their fate."

"What a fine saying, 'It's an unclaimed possession,' and 'He only got himself to blame.' Then let's see who's the real deal." As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man moved swiftly, disappearing from the spot in a flash of gray light.

The middle-aged man was extremely fast, but Xiao Xuanyuan reacted even faster. Before the other party could finish speaking, he used the Golden Cicada Concealment technique, and in a flash of golden light, he rushed towards the middle-aged man opposite him.

Boom!

The two figures flashed out instantly, unleashing a powerful impact in the sky that shattered the entire sky, causing countless spaces around them to explode like mirrors, crashing down with a deafening roar.

"Mighty Sky-Piercing Fist!"

"The Blood Demon Transformation of the Setting Sun!"

Above the void, Xiao Xuanyuan unleashed a barrage of punches, creating countless fist shadows and fist beams that showcased the full power of the Mighty Sky-Supporting Fist. The first to the sixth moves of the fist technique were interwoven, each punch landing with a visceral impact, relentlessly striking!

The middle-aged man was transformed from the eighth-tier magical beast, the Remnant Sun Demon, whose bloodline naturally inherited the legacy of the ancient ancestral magical beast. This "Remnant Sun Blood Demon Transformation" was one of the legacies. In an instant, countless blood-red claws slashed out, obscuring the sky, as he continuously clashed and tore at Xiao Xuanyuan.

In just a few breaths, the two exchanged no less than a hundred blows, each punch landing with a visceral force, each claw revealing its edge, accompanied by the sounds of wind and thunder, constantly intertwining with each other, fierce and ruthless, all of them the kind of deadly moves that risked their lives for each other.

The surrounding void, already shattered, was torn apart again by the powerful, surging force of the two attackers, even though the laws of space were constantly and rapidly repairing themselves.

Finally, the two collided fiercely, and then exploded in the sky, creating a surging energy wave that shattered the endless space and void around them, sweeping away everything in its path. The explosion spread outward from the center of the collision.

Almost simultaneously, the two were also thrown back by the opponent's overwhelming force during this explosive exchange of attacks.

Chapter 42 Two Top-Tier Magical Beast Forces

When the two separated, they gazed at each other from afar, quickly adjusting the surging energy within their bodies, and did not make a move for the time being.

Under the middle-aged man's "Residual Sun Blood Demon Transformation" claw technique, Xiao Xuanyuan's arms and body were covered with hideous and terrifying bloodstains. His clothes were tattered and torn, the result of being brutally clawed by the other party's sharp claws.

Looking at the middle-aged man on the other side, his hair, which was originally tied up in a high crown, had been knocked off, and his long gray hair was now disheveled. His face was bruised and swollen, and his dark brown robe was torn. His two outstretched claws trembled slightly, as if trying to relieve the impact of the fierce force from the fight between the two sides.

"You are very strong!"

"You're not bad either!"

Both men stared intently at each other, wisps of murderous aura, almost tangible, swirling between them. They unleashed their strongest oppressive auras and demonic energy, surging and crushing towards each other.

Centered on the two individuals, two gusts of wind, like raging tornadoes, suddenly rose up, clashing against each other and whipping up countless flying sand, stones, and fallen leaves from the surrounding area.

After resting for a short while, the two figures disappeared from their original positions almost simultaneously. Only a golden light flashed and a gray light streaked past, like a shooting star swiftly passing through the void, shooting towards each other.

"Six Harmonies and Eight Desolations Fist!"

"Netherworld Blood Claw!"

A sky full of fist shadows appeared. In an instant, Xiao Xuanyuan unleashed the first six moves of the Mighty Sky-Supporting Fist, transforming into a fist beam with a black hole in it. It twisted and swallowed the light shooting in from the surroundings. Wherever it passed, all the surrounding space was shattered. It was powerful and domineering as it smashed out!

A massive, mountain-sized blood claw appeared out of thin air, carrying a terrifying aura capable of destroying heaven and earth. It shattered the space in front of it and grabbed at the incoming black hole fist with tremendous force!

When the two meet, they unleash terrifying energy, shattering all the surrounding restored space once again. Even the void storms emanating from the void are annihilated and pulverized by the aftershocks of this powerful collision.

Now that Xiao Xuanyuan has reached the peak of the sixth-level Dou Zun, the power of the Six Harmonies Eight Desolations Fist has naturally increased many times over. With just one punch, even the void is completely shattered into dust, and a huge mountain can be instantly leveled and blown into pieces.

The middle-aged man's true form was the eighth-tier magical beast, the Remnant Sun Demon Li Diao. His body naturally possessed a powerful advantage, capable of both endurance and combat. Moreover, having reached the peak of the eighth-tier magical beast, his strength was naturally remarkable.

Under the Netherworld Blood Claw, countless spaces shattered, demonstrating its immense power, which should not be underestimated.

After exchanging blows, the two figures separated, instantly creating distance, before turning back to engage in a new round of close-quarters, bare-chested combat.

"Ancient Reincarnation Technique, Yin and Yang Reincarnation!"

"The Blood Demon Transformation of the Setting Sun, the Blood Luo Withering Hand!"

Two swirling yin-yang lights appeared around Xiao Xuanyuan, constantly rotating around him. He reached out a claw, and two enormous lights, like the blazing sun and the white moon, were bound in his palm. He then unleashed a barrage of fierce blows on the middle-aged man in front of him. The terrifying power emanating from the blazing sun and the white moon shattered the void with each strike, revealing light and shadow, and the immense energy reverberated around them.

At the same time, the middle-aged man's two strong arms, as thick as an adult man's thighs, instantly turned deep red, swelled several times larger, and transformed into thick, sharp ten-fingered claws. With the powerful force to tear apart mountains and split the earth, they shattered the void and clashed and tore into each other with Xiao Xuanyuan.

Each collision was like the collapse of the sky and the cracking of the earth, a thunderclap in a clear sky. The violent energy was unleashed and swept in all directions. Every time it hit the earth, countless mountains were instantly shattered into dust, rivers stopped flowing, lakes evaporated instantly, and towering ancient forests were destroyed in an instant. The terrifying aftershocks turned the surrounding land into a desolate ruin.

"An eighth-tier peak magical beast is roughly equivalent to a tenth-tier peak Dou Zun human expert; I cannot defeat it in a short time!"

As thoughts raced through Xiao Xuanyuan's mind, his hands moved swiftly, battling the middle-aged man from the sky to the ground, and then from the ground to the mountain peak. The energy ripples from their attacks completely destroyed everything around them, and countless birds and beasts that couldn't escape perished on the spot.

"The strength of this creature whose true form is unknown is truly terrifying! It has fought fiercely with me for over a hundred rounds, yet its aura has not weakened at all, and it has not been at a disadvantage. In fact, it even seems to have gained a slight advantage. What is its origin? There are only a handful of eighth-tier magical beasts in the Primordial Continent. Why have I never heard of its name before?"

The middle-aged man grew increasingly alarmed as he fought, constantly speculating and pondering Xiao Xuanyuan's origins.

In the central region of the primordial continent, specifically the core area surrounding Kunlun Mountain, the pillar of the world, there are two demon beast kings who have reached the ninth-tier demon beast realm. One of these nine demon kings is a ninth-tier demon king whose true form is the Frost Mirror Moon Rabbit. However, she transforms into a beautiful human woman in her twenties named Bai Yuewu. Her strength has reached the half-step ninth-tier demon king realm, equivalent to a high-level half-saint among human experts. She is only one step away from truly reaching the ninth-tier demon king realm.

Under the command of this half-step ninth-tier demon king, the Frosty Mirror Moon Rabbit, there are four flying magical beast subordinates, namely the four demon beauties: the Five-Colored Illusionary Demon Sparrow, the White Heart Phoenix, the Heavenly Feathered Goose, and the Cloud-Wandering Flying Crane, who are four eighth-tier demon generals.

The other one is the leader of the eighth-tier magical beast, the Remnant Sun Demon Crying. His true form is the Azure Blood King Eagle, which carries a trace of the bloodline of the ancient divine beast Azure Azure Kunpeng. He transforms into an old man named Hei Ruiqing, who is a true ninth-tier demon king. Although his strength is only low-level, he is still superior to the other half-step ninth-tier demon king, the Frost Sky Mirror Moon Rabbit.

Under the command of this ninth-tier demon king, Cangming Blood King Eagle, there are three eighth-tier demon beasts at the level of demon generals. The strongest is the peak eighth-tier demon beast, Canyang Moli Diao, and the other two are powerful eighth-tier demon beasts whose true forms are six-tailed evil centipedes and Chongtong Black Ghost. The other two are slightly weaker, only at the mid-level of the eighth tier.

In the core area of ​​Kunlun Mountain, the pillar of the world, only these two ninth-tier demon king beast forces dominate. As for the areas outside, they are all demon beasts of the seventh and sixth tiers or below. The two ninth-tier demon kings rarely interfere with these low-tier demon beasts.

After thinking it over, the middle-aged man realized that there were no other eighth-tier magical beasts in the core area. It was likely that one of the seventh-tier magical beasts had hidden its strength and reached the peak of the eighth tier before trying to enter the core area.

That was the only thought he could come up with.
