Demon Emperor
"Boom!"
Flames filled the sky, as powerful as the sun.
Even though Liu Feiyun, Qi Yunxiao, Zhuo Chunqiu and others were hundreds of miles behind Gu Jinlai, they could still clearly "see" the dazzling light at the end of the sky and the destructive power contained within it.
That is...
Its power is comparable to that of top-tier Divine Abilities!
Saints and demon emperors, when struck head-on, could not escape being blasted to their deaths.
But that's not the point.
The key point is...
Similar Divine Ability have been unleashed more than twenty times Gu Jinlai.
Why is it that only saints can comprehend Divine Ability and top-level supernatural Divine Ability?
On the one hand, Divine Ability and top-tier Divine Ability are quite complex, and the time required for cultivation is too long. With a lifespan of about two hundred years for a Divine Ability Celestial Person, if too much effort and energy is devoted to supernatural powers, it may lead to difficulty in becoming a saint.
On the other hand, while Divine Ability and top-tier Divine Ability powers are incredibly powerful, they also consume enormous amounts of energy.
The true essence contained within Celestial Person's body cannot sustain this for more than a few times.
Only a saint who has condensed a divine body, whose internal true essence is several times, or even ten times, that of Celestial Person, can continuously unleash superior and top-tier Divine Ability kill enemies.
Even so, the true essence within the saints' bodies and the power of their indomitable will still only allow them to unleash their top-tier Divine Ability a dozen or so times.
Even those with undying will and perfect holy bodies can only manage thirty or forty times at most.
Throughout Gu Jinlai...
They haven't even reached the Demon Emperors' stronghold yet.
"It's truly unbelievable."
Qi Yunxiao looked at the forests that stretched out like wildfire along the way and muttered to himself.
Although he had heard from people throughout Gu Jinlai that he could unleash an attack similar to a low-yield hydrogen bomb, hearing about it was one thing, seeing it with his own eyes was another.
Looking at the land that seemed to have been burned into lava, and the surrounding area had turned into scorched earth, he couldn't help but look again towards the horizon.
"If Senior Gu were to return to Blue Star with this kind of power, he alone would probably be equivalent to one of the world's strongest nations, right? His combat strength would probably rank in the top ten!"
Qi Yunxiao transmitted his voice to Zhao Yushu.
Zhao Yushu nodded vigorously.
She was about to speak when Qi Yunxiao suddenly thought of something, "He is probably not just one of the world's strongest nations, but also far more than ten in terms of combat power. His deterrent power is probably no less than that of the world's strongest nations."
Regardless of speed, or the unique structural characteristics of beings like saints and martial saints.
These beings are already half-energy, half-carbon-based life forms.
A saint who has condensed a divine body has no weaknesses.
Unless it is completely annihilated or the vessel of the immortal will is destroyed, any damage can be repaired with some immortal refined gold.
"Unless the strongest nations have the courage to destroy everything and launch a saturation attack on his region by simultaneously dropping dozens or hundreds of hydrogen bombs, no force can do anything to him."
Qi Yunxiao spoke with absolute certainty.
Dozens, even hundreds, of hydrogen bombs were used in a saturation attack!?
Zhao Yushu's pupils contracted.
She could hardly imagine that scene.
However, gazing at the still occasionally flashing bright light in the distance, she had to admit that what Qi Yunxiao said was very likely true.
Despite decades of development, many new weapons may have been invented on Blue Star, such as electromagnetic weapons and laser weapons, but the most destructive weapon is still the high-yield hydrogen bomb.
In particular, the destructive power of a saturation hydrogen bomb far surpasses that of any other weapon.
This senior student is so powerful that it takes an attack of this magnitude to kill him...
It can absolutely stand on equal footing with the strongest nations on Blue Star.
"With such means, killing the Demon Emperor is no longer a pipe dream."
Qi Yunxiao said to Liu Feiyun in a deep voice, "Let's speed up and catch up."
"This is an attack equivalent to a top-tier Divine Ability. I just don't know how many rounds he can sustain this kind of attack."
Liu Feiyun smiled bitterly.
"We should trust Senior Gu. I believe that Senior Gu wouldn't risk his life without sufficient confidence."
Qi Yunxiao said.
Liu Feiyun nodded.
She naturally understood this, otherwise she wouldn't have followed him until now.
At this moment, having witnessed firsthand the abilities displayed Gu Jinlai, what she thought about most was how to escape from Liyang Cave.
Liuhuo City, and even Haifeng City, are clearly eyeing their Liyang Cave Heaven's heritage and treasures.
When they were down to just a handful of people, they could hide outside Liuhuo City unnoticed. But once they had rescued tens of thousands of people from Liyang Cave, it would be difficult to escape the notice of the higher-ups in Liuhuo City.
In this situation, their branch had to find a powerful backer.
And before them stood the ancient martial saint, whose character and strength had been proven Gu Jinlai ...
That's obviously the best choice.
"Roar!"
The demonic tide surged.
Gu Jinlai, they have maintained a steady pace of advancement towards Chilong Territory, attracting even more Demonic Beasts to come from all directions to attack them.
While the majority of the Demonic Beasts, a few demon generals and commanders are also present...
However, the shadow of a demon king is not uncommon.
As the lords of the Chilong Territory, the four powerful Demon Emperors had already learned that a powerful human had invaded the Chilong Territory.
Judging from his trend...
He clearly intended to wipe out all the Chilong tribes by himself.
The four Demon Emperors were wary of Gu Jinlai's power. On one hand, they ordered their subordinate Demon Kings to gather a large number of Demonic Beasts to weaken him, and on the other hand, they constantly observed Gu Jinlai's strength.
"Commander, this human is too powerful. Although we can defeat him, we will inevitably pay a heavy price in the end. Why don't we just ask him what he wants? If we accidentally captured their people, we can just return them."
A demon emperor, resembling a giant python but possessing six heads, made a suggestion to three other figures seated cross-legged atop a luxurious palace.
"Sixth Head, you want us to bow down to a human?! To a species that is only fit to become our evolutionary capital?"
On the palace floor, the largest figure, resembling a rhinoceros-man, spoke in a deep, booming voice.
The sound, like muffled thunder, echoed continuously in the hall, causing some of the lesser Demonic Beasts inside to tremble in fear.
"Humans are not all the same. This human has completed the evolution of life and has the right to stand on equal footing with us."
The Demon Emperor, known as the Three-Headed One, said, "My subordinates have sent word that they used something useful in the human world to detect his combat power. His strongest attack caused his combat power to soar to 540,000!"
"Don't try to fool me with these things made by humans. I also have my subordinates who have investigated his combat power data. His physical energy intensity is clearly only 120,000. He can only reach that level by relying on the amplification of his Divine Ability. How long can he maintain an attack with a combat power of 540,000?"
The rhinoceros-man, who was revered as the Grand Commander, suddenly stood up. "If we retreat now, it will only embolden these humans. We will not only lose the ten million units of advancement rations, but these humans will also become more arrogant. The next time we are forced to do something, the price we have to pay will be even greater."
"The Grand Commander is right. In the past ten years, many more humans have joined this force called the Holy Dynasty. They are gradually becoming stronger, especially... some people from the Immortal Kingdom seem to have fled to the Holy Dynasty and spread rumors that our main force has been withdrawn from this land to attack the Immortal Kingdom. These rumors have made some people in the upper echelons of the Holy Dynasty restless and have some inappropriate thoughts."
The Demon Emperor, who sat in the second seat and resembled a giant ape, said in a deep voice, "Therefore, I believe we should report to the Demon Emperors and launch a war to completely annihilate those nascent and inappropriate thoughts of these humans, and make them remember the fear of being dominated by us ten years ago."
"The problem is that we have indeed lost a lot of manpower. I heard that only the six Demon Gods are currently stationed around the area to deal with the six great grotto-heavens of these human forces. The other Demon Gods have only left behind their avatars to intimidate the human race and cannot exert their due combat power..."
The third Demon Emperor spoke.
"That's just a rumor, or even a conspiracy spread by humans to keep us from making any rash moves for a while."
The Demon Emperor, resembling a giant ape, roared like thunder, "Besides, so what if there are only six Demon Gods in charge? Human forces that want to gain the power to fight against the Demon Gods must sacrifice their own lives. Ten years ago, these humans didn't have the courage to fight to the death. Now, ten years later, their courage has been further eroded. If we start a war and confine it to the outer circle, they will never choose to perish together. On the contrary, we can take advantage of this opportunity to quickly become stronger."
As it spoke, its huge, ferocious eyes turned to the Grand Commander: "Those Spirit Venerables who descended with you have all broken through to the middle level, and the most outstanding ones have even broken through to the upper level. They have the potential to advance to the level of Demon God!"
Demon God!
This form is indeed the strongest that a Spirit Lord can achieve.
However, even among the Spirit Lords, only the most outstanding high-ranking Spirit Lords have the hope of transforming their "vessel" into a Demon God.
Once it becomes a demon god, it can then nurture hundreds of millions of living beings in a nation. Through the spiritual feedback from these beings, it may eventually improve itself and transform into Devil Master -like being.
With this in mind, the demon emperor made a decision.
"I will report to the Demon Emperor and persuade them to launch a demonic tide. This human in front of me is the best excuse."
The Demon Emperor said in a deep voice, "The premise is that we can capture this human, or at least defeat him. Losers in our world have no right to speak."
"Hahaha, don't worry, Commander-in-Chief. Leave it to me. I will gather the men right away, surround this human, exhaust his strength, and capture him alive. Furthermore, I will personally intervene to prevent this human from escaping when he is exhausted."
The giant ape-like demon emperor laughed loudly and strode towards the edge of his territory.
