You were asked to assist Di Xin, but you made him the Human Emperor?

At this very moment, his internal world had evolved to the level of a small world.

Sensing his internal world, Deng Jiugong was filled with surprise and joy.

With his cultivation at the Golden Immortal Realm, being able to evolve a small world within his body meant this small world's power could be used in actual combat.

In other words, although Deng Jiugong's cultivation had not increased, his actual combat power had greatly improved on its original foundation.

Moreover, due to the existence of the Star Fruit Tree, his internal world was like a vast starry sky, illuminated by endless starlight, giving his internal world a unique spectacle.

It could be said that the Star Fruit Tree had almost compensated for the lack of Zhou Tian stars in his internal world.

Especially under Deng Jiugong's evolution, the starlight from the Star Fruit Tree illuminated almost the entire small world.

However, it was also because the level of his internal world was not high at this time; otherwise, the starlight from the Star Fruit Tree would probably not be enough.

At that time, he would need to make his internal world's rules more complete.

"Right, I was supposed to be heading to Chaoge City!"

Deng Jiugong suddenly snapped back to reality, remembering he still had a mission.

With a movement, he left the Innate Restriction space and rushed toward Chaoge City.

Hum!

At a certain moment, Deng Jiugong instinctively sensed a threat. By the time he reacted, he was already in a black mist.

"What kind of demon is causing trouble?"

Deng Jiugong's expression tightened.

Vaguely, at the end of the black mist, he saw a terrifying figure.

Furthermore, this black mist contained a poison that could incapacitate people. If one was not careful, they would truly fall victim.

It was also because Deng Jiugong cultivated the Pangu Divine Art, his mana was not weak, and his physical body was almost impervious to all methods. Ordinary poisons could not get close to him.

Therefore, while in this poisonous mist, Deng Jiugong could activate his power and remain unharmed.

Hum!

Just then, a giant centipede churned out of the black mist, spewing black mist with a terrifying aura.

The opponent seemed to understand that the black mist posed little threat to Deng Jiugong and intensified its attack.

Deng Jiugong's expression tightened. This sudden danger had truly startled him.

He had never seen such a giant centipede before. Its claws were like steel and iron, sending a shiver down Deng Jiugong's spine, making him feel a sense of dread.

Hiss!

The next moment, the centipede reached Deng Jiugong, its mouth opening to swallow him.

"Vermin, you court death!"

Deng Jiugong's expression turned furious.

He was merely passing through this place, yet he had brought such great calamity upon himself.

Sensing that the opponent's strength was not high, Deng Jiugong raised a fist and struck directly.

Hiss!

The power of this punch was immense. It directly struck the centipede's body. The centipede let out a shrill cry, and its massive body was instantly sent flying.

The next moment, after a loud bang, it fell heavily to the ground, already severely injured.

Hum!

The next moment, Deng Jiugong's figure descended, landing in front of the centipede.

With a thought, he summoned the Heavenly Origin Divine Blade, preparing to slay the centipede.

Generally, centipede spirits, scorpion spirits, and the like were considered evil spirits and were not well-liked. Deng Jiugong did not like them either.

Moreover, such demonic creatures ate people at the drop of a hat. If Deng Jiugong hadn't been strong, he would likely have been eaten by this giant centipede.

At this moment, he summoned the Heavenly Origin Divine Blade, unleashing infinite killing intent, about to strike the giant centipede.

"Big brother, save me!"

The centipede, injured by Deng Jiugong and sensing the terrifying long saber in Deng Jiugong's hand, cried out shrilly.

Hum!

Just then, a flash of white light streaked across, and a white-haired monkey, over eight feet tall, with a heroic appearance and holding an iron staff, appeared before Deng Jiugong.

The next moment, five more figures descended. All of them had wicked expressions in their eyes, looking at Deng Jiugong with ill intentions, killing intent surging.

Seeing this, Deng Jiugong was stunned.

"The Seven Monsters of Mount Mei?"

Legend had it that the Seven Monsters of Mount Mei were powerful. Especially the eldest of the seven, Yuan Hong, was a white ape who had attained enlightenment. He cultivated the Eight-Nine Arcane Art and was on par with Yang Jian in strength.

Moreover, Yuan Hong was fierce by nature, enjoyed killing, and also possessed the talent of a great general.

In the later period of the Investiture of the Gods, he was even appointed by Emperor Xin as the general guarding Hunyou Pass, making him a match for Jiang Ziya.

Yuan Hong and Yang Jian possessed identical Divine Abilities, neither able to overcome the other. It was only when Yang Jian borrowed the Nuwa's Mountain and River Map that Yuan Hong was captured, but he could not be killed.

In the end, it was Jiang Ziya who used Daoist Lu Ya's Immortal-Slaying Flying Dagger to finally kill him!

"Fellow Daoist, you barge into my Mount Mei sacred land and injure my brother Wu Long. This seems rather improper!"

Yuan Hong revealed himself. He didn't attack immediately, but his battle intent surged.

Clearly, this man who had suddenly appeared, trespassed on his Mount Mei, and injured his brother was no ordinary individual.

Yuan Hong, who enjoyed killing, intended to fight Deng Jiugong.

"So it's the Seven Monsters of Mount Mei!"

"This centipede was trying to devour this Marshal, so I punished him. What's improper about that?"

Deng Jiugong said calmly.

Upon hearing Deng Jiugong's address, Yuan Hong was momentarily stunned before asking.

"Who are you?"

"This Marshal is Deng Jiugong, Marshal of Great Shang. I was merely passing through this area when your centipede brother launched a sneak attack!"

Deng Jiugong looked at the somewhat gruesome-looking centipede on the ground and said calmly.

The Seven Monsters of Mount Mei, their leader Yuan Hong, was a white ape.

However, Deng Jiugong knew that Yuan Hong's origins were far from simple. He was the Arm-reaching Ape Monkey, one of the Four Mixed Monkeys of the Primordial Era, possessing immense strength.

Among the Four Mixed Monkeys, the Six-Eared Macaque was born the earliest, appearing during the Witch-Demon Calamity. However, lacking cultivation methods, it remained inactive until the Journey to the West period, when it reappeared.

The Red-Haired Monkey, during the time of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, caused havoc and endangered the populace when Yu the Great controlled the floods, and was suppressed by Yu the Great.

This Arm-reaching Ape Monkey, Yuan Hong, was born during the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation period. Unfortunately, his final outcome was not good.

Next came the Spirit Stone Monkey, Sun Wukong, the protagonist of the Great Tribulation during the Journey to the West. But that is a story for another time and need not be elaborated upon.

The Four Mixed Monkeys of the Primordial Era seemed to possess no great strength, with Sun Wukong likely being the most formidable.

In reality, the Four Mixed Monkeys each contained a portion of the Chaos Demon Ape's essence, which was no simple matter.

Encountering Yuan Hong at this moment, Deng Jiugong dared not underestimate him.

Especially since, in Deng Jiugong's perception, Yuan Hong's cultivation had already reached the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm.

"So it's Marshal Deng of Great Shang!"

"Unfortunately, this seat has never heard of you!"

"Today, you injured my brother, and that is unacceptable!"

As Yuan Hong finished speaking, he waved his hand, ordering the others to attack Deng Jiugong.

He primarily wanted to gauge Deng Jiugong's capabilities.

"Ding dong, detecting the host's current predicament, God-Tier Options have been activated!"

"Option 1: Kill the Seven Monsters of Mount Mei. Reward: Five million points of Great Dao Merit!"

"Option 2: Subdue the Seven Monsters of Mount Mei. Reward: Ten million points of Great Dao Merit!"

At that very moment, the System's prompt sounded in Deng Jiugong's mind.

Deng Jiugong's expression froze.

Perhaps sensing the Seven Monsters of Mount Mei were rather ferocious, the System had even offered a killing option.

However, killing the Seven Monsters of Mount Mei would be difficult!

Especially Yuan Hong, who was not easy to kill. Deng Jiugong had no confidence in being able to slay him.

Furthermore, the reward was not substantial!

However, the second option was something Deng Jiugong could consider.
