Devouring Mang Mountain

Those who witnessed Lin Dong's bizarre methods had no doubt that Luo Tong would die as soon as he crushed the scroll in his hand.

The Four Teng Brothers, hesitant to act for fear of harming the innocent, all wore extremely unpleasant expressions.

"Lin Dong, do you dare to kill Lord Luo Tong? Lord Luo Tong is a prodigy of the Nine Phoenix Clan, with the blood of the Nine Phoenix Royal Clan flowing through his veins. If you kill Lord Luo Tong, the true Great Master of the Nine Phoenix Clan will surely unleash their Thunderous Wrath and raze your Four Symbols Palace to the ground."

Teng Feng's eyes flickered, and he suddenly raised his voice.

"He's just a good-for-nothing who failed in the competition for the position of Young Patriarch leader. What right does he have to provoke the true Great Master of the Nine Phoenix Clan to take action? Besides, even if the Nine Phoenix Clan does take action, so what?"

"I am the current Punishment Elder of the Dragon Clan. Does the Nine Phoenix Clan dare to wage a full-scale war against my Dragon Clan for a pawn that has long been abandoned?"

Lin Dong smiled coldly, flipped his palm, and Purple Gold Dragon Seal radiating five-colored light appeared. With a loud "boom", a purple-gold pillar of light filled with the mighty Dragon Might's power immediately shot into the sky.

The Heavenly Dragon Demon Commander, who possessed the bloodline of the Dragon Clan, was caught off guard and instantly crushed to the ground, losing face terribly. He gave Lin Dong a rather resentful look.

Before Commander Lin activated the Purple Gold Dragon Seal, why didn't you at least give me, the old dragon, a heads-up?!

"The Dragon Clan's Punishment Dragon Seal, it really is the Dragon Clan's Punishment Dragon Seal."

"The Dragon Clan had previously announced that they would hire a Human Race powerhouse to serve as their Punishment Elder. I didn't believe it, but it turned out to be true. That Human Race powerhouse is not the Palace Master of the Four Symbols Palace."

"The Dragon Clan is going mad..."

Exclamations and commotions erupted from the crowd that covered the hillside.

As for the doubts about Lin Dong's true identity, no one even considered it.

The Demon Domain is the main base of the Dragon Clan. To swindle and deceive people on their own doorstep under the banner of a top-tier Overlord Clan, how tough must they be and how audacious must they be?

What happened here will be reported back to the Dragon Clan's Ancestral Land — Dragon Domain —in less than three days. If you are not afraid of being killed by Samsara Stage Great Power of the Dragon Clan, then go ahead and lie.

"The Dragon Clan's Punishment Elder... I never imagined the rumors were true..."

Teng Feng shook his head weakly, his face turning deathly pale instantly.

Luo Tong was a product of a failed political struggle, a discarded pawn of the ancient clans, while Lin Dong was the newly appointed Punishment Elder of the Dragon Clan, in charge of the punishments of all dragons under heaven, wielding immense power, second only to a few senior elders.

To attack Lin Dongdong would be tantamount to provoking the entire Dragon Clan and slapping the Dragon Clan in the face.

If the Nine Phoenix Clan were to risk a full-scale war with the Dragon Clan to avenge a traitor within their own clan, they would be truly insane.

"Lord Lin Dong, please abide by the rules of the duel we agreed upon beforehand, show mercy, and release Lord Luo Tong."

The Four Teng Brothers exchanged a helpless glance and pleaded with great pain.

"Hmph, seeing that things were not going to work out, he turned around and demanded that we all follow the rules."

Lin Dong smiled disdainfully. These mediocre people only know a few tricks they use over and over again.

However, he didn't care. As long as he could subdue them, that was enough. If they weren't convinced, he would fight them again and see whether his fists were harder or their heads were harder.

"Luo Tong, show yourself at once!"

Lin Dong rubbed the ancient scroll in his hand, and the Ancient Nine Provinces Scroll immediately transformed into thousands of light spots that overflowed from his palm. A dark red, nine-colored bird, as if drunk, swayed and flew out from it.

"Thump!"

Amidst the burst of dazzling light, a pale-faced Green Shirt Man collapsed to the ground, his aura waning. Who else could it be but Luo Tong?

"Lord Luo Tong! Lord Luo Tong!"

"Lord Luo Tong, are you alright?"

The Four Teng Brothers rushed over immediately and helped Luo Tong up.

"Luo Tong, you must have heard what I just said inside. I'm just asking you, do you submit? If not, we can continue fighting until you submit. You can call for reinforcements if you want; I'm waiting here for the Nine Phoenix Clan's experts to arrive."

Lin Dong did not stop the Four Teng Brothers from doing their thing, but coldly looked down at the weak-looking Green Shirt Man robe.

"Eh..."

Luo Tong sighed Youyou, pushed away the Four Teng Brothers who wanted to continue supporting him, took a deep breath, and a bitter smile appeared on his lips, "I, Luo Tong, can still afford to lose. I, Mang Mountain, am willing to accept defeat. From this day forward, Mountain General be completely merged into the Four Symbols Palace under the command of Commander Lin. Mang Mountain will cease to exist in the world."

After saying this, Luo Tong felt a sense of relief for no reason. He was proud by nature, but once he was subdued, Luo Tong would admit defeat and never regret it.

However, Mang Mountain was a vast empire that he had built up over many years with the Four Teng Brothers after leaving the Nine Phoenix Clan. To hand it over like this left him with a bitter and helpless feeling.

"Luo Tong actually surrendered? That was a major power that dominated the Mang Domain!"

"You're so pedantic. If it were up to me, I would have pretended to agree, returned safely to Mang Domain, and then continued to raise an army to resist."

"To hand over such a vast empire so easily, Luo Tong is ruthless."

Upon hearing this, the sea of people immediately erupted in a cacophony of gasps and whispers, each with its own distinct reaction.

"Very good, at least you didn't make me look down on you."

Lin Dong glanced at Luo Tong with some surprise. He had originally planned to wipe out the Mang Mountain leadership on the spot and swallow him whole.

"In the name of the Palace Master of the Four Symbols Palace, I hereby order your troops to proceed to the Four Symbols Mountain Range in the Beast War Domain within two days for reorganization. Those who disobey will be executed."

Lin Dong said calmly, then smiled and said, "Don't try any tricks on me. Remember, I, Lin Dong, never give people a second chance."

"Let's go!"

With a wave of his hand, the tens of thousands of Ghost Sculpture of the Four Symbols Palace once again transformed into a dark sea of clouds that swept towards the horizon in a mighty and unstoppable manner.

"Lord Luo Tong, Mang Mountain is something we've worked so hard for..."

Gazing at the black ocean sweeping towards the horizon, the Four Teng Brothers still spoke with some reluctance.

"Okay, that's enough."

Luo Tong shook his head, muttering dejectedly, "I can't compete with my elder brother within the clan, and I lost to Lin Dong of the Human Race outside the Ancestral Land. Am I, Luo Tong, really a useless good-for-nothing?"

Seeing this, the Four Teng Brothers retreated dejectedly. Luo Tong had lost his spirit, and the matter was beyond saving.

On that day, in order to compete for the Profound Heaven Hall, which ranked tenth on the Ancient Divine Artifact Ranking, Mystic King of Mang Mountain was defeated by Commander Lin of the Four Symbols Palace. Mystic King Luo Tong had no choice but to lead his people to surrender to Commander Lin.

From this point on, Mang Mountain was officially declared extinct.

The Four Symbols Palace successfully annexed Mang Mountain, a force no less powerful than itself, becoming a top-tier power spanning both the Beast War Domain and the Mang Domain. It boasts ten experts at the Samsara Stage, and its strength rivals that of some slightly weaker Royal Clan.

The fame of the Four Symbols Palace began to spread from a few nearby small domains to the entire Demon Domain, officially entering the sights of the true rulers of the Demon Domain — the Four Overlord Clans and the Eight Royal Clans.

Ripples spread across the Demon Domain.
