Hunting the Demon God

Everyone present could kill a Demon God.

If given enough time, it could return to its peak, and no one on the Azure World would be able to threaten it. In fact, with its full power, it could destroy the Azure World.

What it needed most now was time.

The power of the Venerable Tier Grand Formation was still acting upon the Demon God, rendering it immobile. It couldn't mobilize its spiritual energy, and it felt as if a mountain was pressing down on it. It was extremely weak at the moment.

Yet, it had to pretend to be completely unaffected and incredibly powerful. Otherwise, Zhou Qiongtian could kill it with a single slap.

The Demon God desperately absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, its cultivation rising continuously with almost no bottlenecks. It quickly broke through from Spirit Connection Grand Perfection to Cycle Early Stage.

Zhou Qiongtian frowned. This couldn't go on. Once the reinforcements from the Great Sun Divine Sect and the Mystic Heaven Hegemony Sect arrived, if a Supreme Being appeared, Zhou Qiongtian's situation would likely worsen.

Even though this Demon God appeared terrifying and unfathomable, Zhou Qiongtian had to face it head-on. He could only hope that the methods his father left him would be useful.

Zhou Qiongtian instantly charged forward, performing Lightning Step. He trod on lightning and in an instant, he was before the Demon God, about to smash down with his fist.

The Demon God was instantly terrified. With this punch, although its physical body had been strengthened, borrowing the power of the Demon God Core made it comparable to Feather Ascension Grand Perfection, it was still no match for Zhou Qiongtian.

More importantly, if Zhou Qiongtian's punch landed, its true state would be revealed, letting him know it was merely a paper tiger. It would be in danger.

What should it do? How could it stall for time? In an instant, countless thoughts collided in the Demon God's mind, trying to come up with a good plan.

However, the Demon God didn't have that much time. It could already feel the wind from the punch; Zhou Qiongtian's fist was about to land.

"Wait!" the Demon God suddenly exclaimed. "Kid, do you want to know about the realm above Great Emperor!"

Zhou Qiongtian was stunned. "You know?"

The Demon God laughed heartily. "Of course, I know. Above Great Emperor is True God. I am a True God. Be honored, kid, to behold the appearance of a True God."

Zhou Qiongtian nodded, took out a treasured sword, and lightning spread across it.

The Demon God's body trembled. That's it? Why don't you ask something!

Seeing Zhou Qiongtian's treasured sword about to slash down, the Demon God panicked. "Wait."

Zhou Qiongtian stopped, a look of confusion on his face. What is it now?

The Demon God's heart was in turmoil. It spoke to itself, "A True God can condense a small world within their body. They are masters of their world, immortal and indestructible. All living beings within the small world, whether cultivating or fighting, their emanated dao marks can become nourishment for the True God's cultivation..."

The Demon God spoke to itself, making Zhou Qiongtian understand the power of a True God. Zhou Qiongtian's eyes showed longing. The strongest beings the continent could accommodate were only Great Emperors.

To become a True God, one needed to condense the prototype of a world. This required immense energy. The energy of a single continent was barely enough to meet the needs of condensing a world's prototype.

Wait, could it be that Dad's conquest of other continents was for this reason? Then Dad must already be at the peak of the Great Emperor realm?

The Demon God continued to speak. Outside the continent was the endless starry sky. Only Great Emperor experts could traverse the starry sky. Within the starry sky were countless experts, continents, planets, worlds, and so on.

The sights and sounds described by the Demon God captivated Zhou Qiongtian, who had never heard of them before.

The Demon God felt very nervous but also a sense of joy. "Just like this, just like this, very good. If I can stall for time until my strength recovers, I'll kill these brats."

The Demon God's cultivation had unknowingly reached Cycle Mid Stage, very, very close to Cycle Late Stage.

Zhou Qiongtian appeared to be listening, but in his heart, he was already communicating with the System.

"System, how do I kill this thing? Recommend something."

"Kill!" Zhou Qiongtian once again attacked the Demon God.

"Wait, kid, do you want to obtain my inheritance? This is a True God's inheritance!" The Demon God felt the strong killing intent emanating from Zhou Qiongtian and its expression changed drastically. It hurriedly shouted.

"I want your grandpa!" Zhou Qiongtian's treasured sword suddenly slashed down. Infinite lightning surged throughout the entire Grand Formation. Amplified by the formation, the power of this sword surpassed Feather Ascension Grand Perfection!

The Demon God's face contorted in shock. It activated the power of the Demon God Core, and its aura instantly surged to Feather Ascension Mid Stage. Its entire body turned crimson, emitting heat. The temperature of the entire Grand Formation instantly soared.

"Ha!" the Demon God roared. Infinite demonic energy condensed before it into a black wall. Not only that, but a set of demonic armor also condensed on the surface of the Demon God's body, exuding a ferocious aura.

This demonic black wall was enough to withstand a single blow from an ordinary Feather Ascension Grand Perfection cultivator, but under Zhou Qiongtian's sword, it didn't even last a second before being shattered.

The treasured sword struck the Demon God's armor. A tremendous force was transmitted. The Demon God used this to send its body flying backward, offsetting the impact. However, even so, the Demon God felt as if it had suffered a heavy blow.

"Damn it! This kid is only at Feather Ascension Early Stage, how can his combat power be so terrifying? It's already reached Half-Saint combat power!"

The Demon God's eyes were bloodshot. It used its full power to flee madly, wanting to stall for time. However, this Grand Formation was controlled by Zhou Qiongtian, and it couldn't escape from it at all.

This Grand Formation covered the entire Green Flame Valley, but Green Flame Valley itself was not large. With their speed, they quickly circled it once.

"Aren't you a True God? Why are you running? Take this sword!" Zhou Qiongtian roared, treading on lightning, chasing the Demon God with sparks and lightning.

The Demon God was in a sorry state, covered in wounds. Even though its physical body was extremely strong and its self-healing ability was excellent, its recovery was still not as fast as its injuries. The Demon God's wounds became more and more severe.

"Damn it, curse it! If only I had a few more hours, I could kill this ant with one hand!" the Demon God thought with murderous intent, filled with extreme anger.

It, a dignified Demon God, a supreme expert of the True God Realm, was actually being chased by an ant in the Feather Ascension Realm, in such a sorry state, such humiliation!

Outside the Grand Formation, those Saints and Saint Kings were dumbfounded. What was going on? That seemingly terrifying fellow was actually being chased and beaten by Zhou Qiongtian. Zhou Qiongtian's strength was terrifyingly immense!
