The Name of the Demon God

"Demon God? Haha, stop trying to scare us!" A black-bearded man among the six, wielding a silver iron staff, looked at Samael mockingly. The other five also stared at him with ill intent.

The six of them had teamed up precisely to earn more points. How could they possibly let prey that had wandered right before their eyes escape?

As for some Demon God, at most he was just a slightly tougher opponent. With all six of them working together, they were confident they could handle most powerful enemies.

"Accept your death!" The black-bearded man burst forth at full speed, shattering a small patch of ground beneath his feet. Two streams of light, one gold and one silver, also shot out alongside him.

"With the Mont brothers' Arc Serpents blocking you from both sides, there's nowhere left for you to run!" Heavy golden light surged around the silver iron staff in the black-bearded man's hand!

"Bastards!" Samael was so furious he nearly coughed up blood. In his rage, he erupted with his full strength as well!

"Flowing Light Thousand Blades!"

The fifth-tier Psychic Weapon, the Flowing Light Cone, instantly split under his control into more than a thousand tiny blades gleaming with golden light. They descended like a torrential rain, engulfing all six men, including the black-bearded giant!

"This is—" The black-bearded giant, once brimming with confidence, instantly changed expression.

"Not good, get out of the way!" The Mont brothers hurriedly retreated.

"Block them! Block them for me!" How could the six of them not realize by now that they had kicked an iron plate this time?

"Die! All of you, die!" Samael roared madly, his eyes bloodshot!

"Pfft!" "Pfft!" "Pfft!"...

The dense sounds of blades piercing flesh echoed through the forest sea. In a single exchange, all six men, including the black-bearded giant, were cut into a thousand pieces. Their bodies exploded into clouds of bloody mist, utterly dead!

As the six died, Samael also gained a considerable number of points.

Yet such a glorious victory did not bring him the slightest joy.

"He's here!" Samael suddenly looked up, just in time to see a mass of blazing white lightning descend. Within the lightning was the faint outline of a young man in black.

"You're quite capable, aren't you?" The black-clothed youth praised him first, then suddenly threw a punch through the air!

"No!" As Samael screamed in despair, he frantically controlled the countless scattered blades and sent them flying toward his opponent.

Unfortunately, it was nothing more than a mantis trying to stop a chariot, laughably overestimating himself!

"Bang!" At the instant his head shattered, Samael was completely stunned.

He could not believe that he had been killed on the very first day and eliminated ahead of time!

Even after being teleported to Prada Island in the Virtual Universe, Samael's eyes remained filled with lingering terror.

"Why did this happen?"

"I actually ran into a monster like that so early. I can't accept this..."

He panted softly, unable to calm his emotions.

With his ninth-level Light Domain, along with the strongest secret technique he could unleash through the Flowing Light Cone, dealing with those minor pests earlier had been effortless.

But those six minor pests had delayed him just long enough for that terrifying Demon God to catch up to him even more easily.

And once he faced that Demon God head-on, his chances of survival were absolutely zero!

"Damn it, it's all those six bastards' fault! If those idiots hadn't stopped me, I wouldn't have..." If those people had not suddenly appeared halfway through, perhaps he could have struggled a little longer.

"Lord Samael, you have received a call request from Lord Vana!" Just as he seethed with resentment, the virtual assistant's voice suddenly rang in his ear.

Lord Vana? Samael's face instantly turned pale.

"Put it through..." Samael gave the command listlessly. This was something he would have to face sooner or later. He could not avoid it.

"Check my points."

As he boldly continued flying above the forest sea as usual, Lu Ming glanced at the screen on his wrist.

The numbers on the screen were no longer changing. Five days had passed, and his hunt in this region had come to an end.

Participant: Lu Ming (Jinlan Universe Kingdom)

Points: 5127266

Rank: 5

"Four people in this world zone have more points than me, but they seem to have all gone to other forest regions. I can't find them for now." In this massive free-for-all, earning points sometimes required a bit of luck. It was hardly surprising that he had not taken first place yet.

But this situation would soon change.

"Five days have passed. The experts in the other divisions should have started emerging by now. It's time for the second phase of the plan: hunt down these true powerhouses!"

Compared with wasting time and effort looking for minor pests, killing powerful opponents would raise his points much faster.

Only by killing more people with high accumulated points could he more easily obtain enough points to rank first.

As they watched that terrifying figure, bathed in lightning like a Demon God, fly toward another division, the few contestants still hiding in this division all let out long breaths of relief.

That monster, like a ghost or god, had finally left their division to plague the people in other divisions.

Only five days had passed, yet Lu Ming had already inflicted an unforgettable nightmare upon them!

Demon God! That was the title everyone had given this unbelievable monster.

Anyone who encountered him, no matter how strong they were, would be killed without suspense!

This even included the famed Dragon Emperor, an extraordinary genius who had stepped over the threshold of the Origin of Water!

With the Dragon Emperor's strength, he could definitely have ranked in the top ten of the entire Seventh World Zone. Yet he had been killed by the Demon God on the fourth day. Due to insufficient points, he would very likely be eliminated outright during the preliminary stage!

For a supreme genius who had comprehended an Origin Law to be stopped so early in this Genius Battle was undoubtedly something insane!

It was precisely because news of that battle had spread that several other top geniuses, including Demon Blade and Fire Ghost, had collectively "fled" this division.

With their strength, they would normally have ranked near the top and even had hopes of competing for the top spots in the world zone. But if they were eliminated early like the Dragon Emperor, that would be a real joke!

"That madman dared challenge powerful enemies on the fourth day. Is he really not afraid of being eliminated?" Lu Ming had forced Fire Ghost and the others to flee, so naturally they were deeply unwilling to accept it, even furious.

Which one of them was not an unparalleled genius who had dominated the outside world? They had never "avoided" opponents of the same level. But this Genius Battle was simply too important. None of them could afford to gamble.

Under the pressure of "elimination," they could only choose to "avoid his edge" for the time being.

"Just wait until the final day. By then, I'll definitely have enough points that even if something unexpected happens, I won't be eliminated. Then I'll have a match with you, Demon God!" In another division, a stunning young woman with blood-red hair and a strange Demon Blade in hand was madly slaughtering her enemies.

Only by fighting the Demon God would her thoughts flow freely once more.

At the same time.

Above the spatial barrier of the Seventh World Zone.

Inside a luxurious universe spacecraft, Marquis Zhenlei sat with several disciples, drinking wine in high spirits.

"Haha, it went up again! Little Junior Brother's points have now firmly entered the top five!" Hearing the laughter of his disciples, Marquis Zhenlei was in an exceptionally good mood.

"I thought Little Junior Brother would wait several more days before making his move. Now it seems he wants to secure first place ahead of time!" Another World Lord level powerhouse with six arms could not help but marvel at Lu Ming's boldness.

"Among the others from the Jinlan Secret Realm, Sajia and Luo Fu are also ranked highly in points, but they are far behind Little Junior Brother."

"In this Seventh World Zone, Little Junior Brother probably won't encounter any opponent."

Within the Seventh World Zone, the slaughter continued.

As Lu Ming traveled toward the next division, he still flew high in the sky, allowing everyone to see him clearly.

Moreover, he deliberately swept the forest sea below with his spiritual power over a vast area, searching for "prey." Such a wild and arrogant approach almost instantly drew immense hostility.

"Courting death!"

"Is this guy insane?"

"Attack!"

Compared with the division he had been in earlier, not many here knew his information. Thus, dozens of powerful fighters quickly rushed over to besiege him.

But they would soon regret making such a rash choice.
