The entire Primordial Era is boundless, where countless Demon Beast fight and countless rare heavenly materials and earthly treasures reside. Is this heaven or hell?

Vast!

Zhang Xingfeng's only feeling was that no one had ever been here before; everything was so primitive. Zhang Xingfeng had lost all will to fight these Demon Beasts. The Demon Beast in the second area only possessed the strength of Golden Core Stage or Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, posing no real challenge to Zhang Xingfeng. Therefore, Zhang Xingfeng could only ride his sword and fly rapidly westward.

Zhang Xingfeng suddenly grinned, because he could feel the presence of the barrier again. The pressure of the barrier here was just enough for a cultivator in the early stage of the Nascent Soul Separation to withstand.

"Haha... This is my destination! Hmm... This is really exciting. That lion seems to have reached the mid-stage of the Avatar. Let's play with it for a bit!" Zhang Xingfeng smiled, his figure suddenly disappeared, and then suddenly reappeared next to the lion.

The fur on the Wind Thunder Mad Lion stood on end. Seeing the creature that had suddenly appeared before it, its wild instincts told it that this person was dangerous. However, the Wind Thunder Mad Lion, with its formidable strength and powerful wind and thunder attacks in the third region, was undoubtedly a king among beasts. Even the Earth Bear, who had reached the late stage of the Avatar, wouldn't dare to provoke it lightly.

"Roar!" The roar of the Wind Thunder Mad Lion suddenly rang out, and the surrounding wild grass drooped down under the pressure of the Wind Thunder Mad Lion's aura.

Zhang Xingfeng narrowed his eyes slightly. This time, he didn't want the Purple Blade anymore. He wanted to kill this lion with his own hands. Zhang Xingfeng moved his arms slightly, and a shocking aura suddenly erupted around his body!

Zhang Xingfeng's Chaos Power was running wildly at this moment, and his physical abilities were fully ready. Zhang Xingfeng clenched his hands slightly, and the terrifying power made the wind spin in his palms.

"Call!"

The Wind Thunder Mad Lion suddenly disappeared.

"Hiss!"

Zhang Xingfeng suddenly felt a jolt in his waist. Zhang Xingfeng looked down and saw that his clothes were torn and there seemed to be a red mark on his skin!

"Hmm... It actually managed to injure me a little, and it's so fast!" Zhang Xingfeng moved, leaving afterimages!

Suddenly, the Wind Thunder Mad Lion also moved, leaving a similar afterimage!

Two afterimages raced relentlessly, it was impossible to tell who was chasing whom. The speed of the beast and the human was so incredible that they uprooted the surrounding grass, which was torn apart by the force of the afterimages as it swayed.

Suddenly, a beast and a human appeared!

Looking at the Wind Thunder Mad Lion, Zhang Xingfeng's fighting spirit intensified. He hadn't even made a single move against the lion in so long; this lion was truly fast!

How could the Wind Thunder Mad Lion not be shocked? It is Demon Beast with dual wind and thunder attributes, and has a strong affinity with the wind. When it runs at high speed, the wind does not pose any resistance to it at all, which is why it can be so fast!

The Wind Thunder Mad Lion was, after all, a mid -Avatar Nascent Soul Demon Beast, and it could already think, "Roar, roar!" The Wind Thunder Mad Lion roared a few times. It knew that its speed was no longer enough, so it used its other move.

"Hiss~~~Cooked rice~~~~~"

Suddenly, lightning crackled all over the Wind Thunder Mad Lion's body, its entire body surrounded by intense electric light. The intense electric light seemed to pierce through the air, emitting a chilling sound! Suddenly, the Wind Thunder Mad Lion opened its mouth and a bolt of lightning slashed towards Zhang Xingfeng.

Zhang Xingfeng found the Wind Thunder Mad Lion even more intriguing! Zhang Xingfeng smiled slightly, reached out and caught the lightning bolt, secretly channeling the incantation of the "Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art." The "Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sword Drawing Art," when practiced to its peak, could even draw divine lightning, let alone this small bolt from the Wind Thunder Mad Lion. Zhang Xingfeng absorbed the lightning with his bare hand with remarkable ease.

The Wind Thunder Mad Lion stared in disbelief as the man before it absorbed its lightning.

"Roar!"

The Wind Thunder Mad Lion was enraged and reverted to its beastly nature. Suddenly, the Wind Thunder Mad Lion charged towards Zhang Xingfeng with terrifying speed, accompanied by intense lightning. Its attack methods were electricity and sharp claws!

Zhang Xingfeng murmured, "Hmm... let's see just how far my physical body has progressed!" He didn't move an inch, calmly observing the lion! He used stillness to control movement!

"Bang!"

Zhang Xingfeng's body jolted violently as the raging lion rammed into Zhang Xingfeng, attacking him with its claws and flashing lightning.

A glint flashed in Zhang Xingfeng's eyes, and he clenched his right fist. A faint light shone on his fist. The moment the Mad Lion attacked his body, Zhang Xingfeng's fist moved!

"Whoosh!" Zhang Xingfeng's fist struck Mad Lion's body squarely!

"Boom!"

The Wind Thunder Mad Lion was thrown uncontrollably into the air, its body trembling and curling up. Zhang Xingfeng's punch had been far too powerful! Zhang Xingfeng's figure flashed and disappeared, but instantly reappeared next to the Wind Thunder Mad Lion!

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"...

Punch after punch, each one landing squarely!

"Boom!"

With a smile, Zhang Xingfeng delivered the final punch, while the Wind Thunder Mad Lion lay on the ground groaning. It was truly resilient, surviving even this. It was indeed a mid- Avatar Nascent Soul Demon Beast!

"Ah, this feels so good... It's been a long time since I've used my fists like this. Looks like I need to use this body more often. I should use the Purple Blade less. Punching the ground with my fists is really satisfying!" Zhang Xingfeng clenched his fist and walked towards the Wind Thunder Mad Lion!

The Wind Thunder Mad Lion was suddenly startled. "Could it be that this guy in front of me is going to kill me...? No... How can the great Lion King die like this...? What should I do...? What should I do..."

The Wind Thunder Mad Lion struggled to its feet, its four paws retreating incessantly. It felt nothing but fear towards Zhang Xingfeng; the attack from before had terrified it!

Zhang Xingfeng was suddenly astonished to see the Wind Thunder Mad Lion wagging its tail at him, wagging it incessantly. Yes, this powerful Demon Beast was actually wagging its tail at Zhang Xingfeng! "What does this mean?" Zhang Xingfeng was clearly very confused.

The Wind Thunder Mad Lion wagged its tail, then turned and walked away. After a few steps, it looked back at Zhang Xingfeng. Seeing that Zhang Xingfeng hadn't moved, it wagged its tail again and continued walking. After a few more steps, it looked back again!

Zhang Xingfeng understood a little. "Does this lion want me to go with it?"

Zhang Xingfeng tried to follow the Wind Thunder Mad Lion. After the Wind Thunder Mad Lion realized that Zhang Xingfeng was following it, it stopped looking back and began to speed up. Zhang Xingfeng realized that the Wind Thunder Mad Lion really wanted him to follow it!

"What exactly is this lion going to do?" Zhang Xingfeng wondered, but Zhang Xingfeng had nothing else to do, so why not go and see? Besides, Zhang Xingfeng was very curious about it.

The speed of the Wind Thunder Mad Lion increased rapidly, becoming almost as fast as Zhang Xingfeng's sword-riding speed. Zhang Xingfeng followed the Wind Thunder Mad Lion as he flew along on his sword.

Many Demon Beast were astonished to see the powerful Wind Thunder Mad Lion galloping like lightning, followed by a creature they had never seen before flying behind it...

Zhang Xingfeng looked around as if he were sightseeing, and all sorts of bizarre and wonderful Demon Beast appeared before his eyes, many of which Zhang Xingfeng couldn't name. On the Purple Blade, Zhang Xingfeng appeared incredibly graceful and otherworldly!

Suddenly, Zhang Xingfeng froze! His body seemed to freeze completely!

Zhang Xingfeng slowly turned his head with great difficulty, looking straight ahead. His eyes held disbelief, anger, shock, and surprise.

"Heavens... What... What is this place...? It has such abundant Five Phases Spiritual Qi! It has absorbed Five Phases Spiritual Qi of the entire Azure Dragon Continent... Who has such a grand scheme... No wonder it was so difficult for me to collect Five Phases Spiritual Qi, it's all here!" Zhang Xingfeng cried out in his heart as he looked at the palace that was vaguely visible in front of him.

The most arduous part of his elixir cultivation was collecting the Five Phases Spiritual Qi. This was different from seclusion. In seclusion, one could not feel the passage of time; closing one's eyes and opening them again could mean ten years had passed. However, collecting the Five Phases Spiritual Qi required continuous collection. A minute felt like an hour. Yet, Zhang Xingfeng persisted for several months! The culprit behind all this was the mysterious palace before him!

At this moment, the Wind Thunder Mad Lion glanced at Zhang Xingfeng and then immediately ran away, disappearing from sight. Of course, Zhang Xingfeng no more attention to it, because his attention was completely drawn to the palace.

"Demon Emperor's Secret Realm"

Zhang Xingfeng recognized the four large characters on the palace at a glance!

"A Demon Emperor! Could this be the territory of the Seven Fiends of the Demon Realm back then?" Zhang Xingfeng was somewhat shocked. A Demon Emperor was beyond his comprehension. Even in the entire Demon Realm, there were only a few dozen who had reached the Demon Emperor realm... And the one with the most Demon Emperors was the Heavenly Bright Demon Lord, who had twelve Demon Emperors under his command! He dominated the entire Demon Realm!

Next up are the Seven Fiends of the Demon Realm. These seven Demon Emperors truly roamed freely between the Immortal and Demon Realms, and no one dared to interfere! Who among the super-powerful forces of the Immortal and Demon Realms would be willing to fight against them? Back when the seven Demon Emperors were being hunted down by Pangu and had nowhere to escape, they were fortunate enough to find a passage to the Mortal World left by an existence beyond the gods. The seven Demon Emperors joined forces to cross the passage and reach the Mortal World!

To prevent any unforeseen circumstances, the seven Demon Emperors constructed the "Seven Gloom Illusory Star Divine Formation." To build this Seven Gloom Illusory Star Divine Formation, they consumed countless treasures and absorbed the Five Phases Spiritual Qi from the entire Mortal World to reinforce it. However, to their dismay, when Pangu arrived, he destroyed the array with a single axe stroke. This was because Pangu had just broken through to the realm of immortals and become a god! Possessing Divine Power, destroying the Seven Gloom Illusory Star Divine Formation was a simple matter. If a god had set up the array, it would have been extremely difficult for Pangu to destroy it!

At this moment, Zhang Xingfeng was sighing over the palace in front of him. Although the Seven Gloom Illusory Star Divine Formation had been destroyed, even a destroyed array was still difficult for Zhang Xingfeng, a cultivator with only so much power, to break.

"Hmm... what should I do? This formation seems wrong. These seven directions aren't arranged according to the principles of Rest, Life, Injury, Blockage, View, Death, and Shock. Hmm... it also has no connection to the Yin-Yang and Eight Trigrams. What kind of formation is this? But there are clearly seven directions!" Zhang Xingfeng was starting to get worried. To be honest, Zhang Xingfeng was extremely proficient in formations, and even knew a celestial formation!

However, there are different levels of immortal arrays. The one that Zhang Xingfeng understood was the lowest level of immortal array. Zhang Xingfeng would definitely be dumbfounded by the high-level immortal arrays, not to mention divine arrays, even if a divine array is damaged!

"Hehe, silly boy, have you forgotten me? I came here with Pangu back then. Although I don't understand this formation, I know how to proceed!" Tianyu's voice suddenly rang in his mind.

Zhang Xingfeng was taken aback, but then became excited and said, "Then tell me quickly! I'm so anxious! I really want to see what treasures are in the land of the Seven Demon Emperors!"

Tianyu's voice was slightly mocking. "Oh... you already have a Heavy Profound Battle Robe, and you also have Pangu's technique for forging divine artifacts, plus me, a mid-level divine artifact. Are you still greedy!"

Zhang Xingfeng laughed and said, "The virtuous possess it. The Seven Fiends of the Demon Realm have left this secret realm for thousands of years. Why did no one come here? Why did I come thousands of years later? This is fate. Besides, who doesn't like good divine artifacts and immortal artifacts? Even if you don't use them yourself, it's good for your brothers to use. Forget it, stop talking and tell me how to get in!"

Looking at the large door that seemed to be made of jade, Zhang Xingfeng grew increasingly anxious. Although he could see the door, he dared not go in casually, as he figured he would be doomed if he went in!

"Okay... I'll tell you then. This is from before, when I saw the Seven Fiends of the Demon Realm appear. Now I'll put the image into your mind, so remember it clearly!" Tianyu's voice rang in your mind again.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xingfeng immediately focused intently on waiting. Suddenly, Zhang Xingfeng felt a series of images appear in his mind—seven people flying on a map!

In an instant, Zhang Xingfeng confirmed that the seven flying figures were the Seven Demon Emperors. He observed that their movements were constantly shifting, one after another, each change identical. Clearly, their movements were the key to traversing the formation. Zhang Xingfeng immediately focused his attention on observing their actions: sometimes fast, sometimes slow; sometimes advancing, sometimes circling! Sometimes turning right, sometimes left, sometimes stopping, sometimes charging forward... Their movements were so rapid that even Zhang Xingfeng was momentarily confused.

Zhang Xingfeng only knew that in the first second, the seven Demon Emperors moved at least ten thousand times! And it took the seven Demon Emperors about ten minutes to pass through the formation! My God, even with the cultivation levels of the seven Demon Emperors, it took them so long, so you can imagine how terrifying this divine formation is!

"What to do? Moving so fast and constantly changing positions, how could my skill possibly reach such a level!" Zhang Xingfeng sighed inwardly as he looked at the Demon Emperor's Secret Realm shrouded in mist. The Demon Emperor's Secret Realm, containing unparalleled treasures, was right before his eyes, yet he couldn't enter! This feeling was truly unbearable!

Suddenly, Zhang Xingfeng looked at Tianyu on his left and smiled!
