Although the Mechanical Clan immortal's divine body had a special structure, it was still no match for his Fire Void Law.

Just as he was preparing to collect his spoils and look for his next target, his Smart Optical Brain suddenly emitted an urgent alert.

"Beep! Emergency military report! A distress signal has been received from the Human Clan Army!"

Yan Ning raised an eyebrow and quickly opened the message.

"This is Thunder Prison Marquis, of No. 36 Barracks Base. We've encountered the Demon Clan's main forces at coordinates 362.589. The enemy is led by a Peak Marquis Demon Clan warrior. Requesting support from nearby allies!"

A gleam flashed in Yan Ning's eyes.

"A Peak Marquis Demon Clan warrior?"

He murmured softly to himself.

"That's more interesting than these scattered immortals."

Besides, a large-scale army battle meant more immortals would be gathered together. This was the perfect chance for him to complete his mission!

"Bring up the coordinates and calculate the travel time."

Yan Ning gave the order at once.

"Calculating..."

The Smart Optical Brain responded quickly.

"The target is approximately 120 billion kilometers from our current coordinates. If we travel through the Dark Universe, we're expected to arrive within five minutes."

"Good."

Yan Ning collected his spoils and turned to enter the spaceship.

"Set off immediately!"

The F9-class Spaceship's engines roared. It accelerated to the speed of light in an instant and entered the Dark Universe.

Yan Ning stood before the porthole, his battle intent rising.

"I hope this Peak Marquis Demon Clan warrior doesn't disappoint me."

Meanwhile, at the other end of the battlefield, Thunder Prison Marquis was still struggling to hold his ground.

More than 30% of his divine body had already been lost, yet Blood Fang King was still as imposing as ever.

"Human, give up!"

Blood Fang King laughed wildly as his enormous body circled through the starry sky.

"Your reinforcements aren't coming!"

Thunder Prison Marquis didn't answer. He simply tightened his grip on the thunder spear in his hand.

He knew that if no reinforcements arrived within five minutes, he would have to order a retreat.

But just then—

The distant starry sky suddenly twisted. Boom!

A huge crimson spaceship suddenly emerged from the Dark Universe.

A hint of delight flashed in Thunder Prison Marquis's eyes. The reinforcements are here!

He immediately rallied the troops over the army channel. "Hold on, everyone! Our reinforcements have arrived!"

Blood Fang King's scarlet pupils contracted slightly. When he saw what had arrived, he let out a thunderous laugh. "Hahaha! Just one spaceship, and you dare come here to die? Today, I'll show you humans what true power looks like!"

Boom!!

His aura erupted, and he struck Thunder Prison Marquis right in front of him with a thunderous blow!

The strike sent him flying.

Yan Ning's spaceship hovered above the battlefield. He stood with his hands behind his back, his sharp gaze sweeping across the entire field.

In an instant, he had grasped the situation.

"The Human Clan Army has 32 immortals, and the Demon Clan has 48."

He counted silently.

"Good. That's enough for me to reap a harvest."

The Smart Optical Brain quickly analyzed the battlefield data. "Master, one Peak Marquis Demon Clan warrior detected, along with 12 high-level Immortal Army Masters and 35 Ordinary Immortals."

The corner of Yan Ning's mouth curled into a dangerous smile. "Looks like I can exceed my mission quota today."

He stepped out of the spaceship. His golden battle armor gleamed in the starry sky, and the dark red cape behind him fluttered despite the lack of wind.

His terrifying aura spread like a tangible force, and the space across the battlefield seemed to freeze.

"That's... the aura of a King Level expert?!"

Blood Fang King's massive body shuddered, and his scales stood on end involuntarily.

Thunder Prison Marquis's eyes widened in shock as well. "That pressure... a Sealed King!"

Yan Ning's voice rang through the starry sky like thunder. "I am the human Demon Flame Marquis!"

Those few words alone sent a tremor through the entire Demon Clan Army.

The Demon Clan warriors who had been charging forward all stopped in their tracks, staring fearfully at the figure in the sky.

Blood Fang King forced down his unease and shouted, "Stop putting on an act!"

Before he could finish speaking, Yan Ning had already moved.

"Enough noise."

Yan Ning raised his right hand slightly, and a blade of flame slashed across the starry sky.

The blade was impossibly fast. Blood Fang King didn't even have time to react before his hundred-kilometer-long divine body was cut in half!

"What?!"

Blood Fang King stared at his severed body in terror, roaring in disbelief.

His body rapidly regenerated, but that single strike had annihilated 30% of his divine body!

"You're a Peak King!"

He roared in fury.

Yan Ning watched coldly. "The Demon Clan's divine bodies are indeed enormous, but against absolute power, they're nothing more than bigger targets."

As he spoke, he swept out his left hand, and boundless laws of space enveloped the area!

"Space Seal!"

"Not good! Run!"

The Demon Clan immortals were horrified. They tried desperately to escape, but to no avail.

Yan Ning had completely sealed off the space. There was no escape!

A cold glint flashed in Yan Ning's eyes. "You're all staying here."

"Boom—!"

Terrifying flames erupted, and the entire starry sky instantly became a sea of fire.

The 48 Demon Clan immortals screamed miserably as their divine bodies were burned away bit by bit!

The ordinary Realm Lords, Domain Lords, and Universe Level warriors were reduced to ash outright, without the slightest chance to fight back.

Thunder Prison Marquis and all the human warriors stood frozen in place, staring at the scene in shock.

The enemy they had struggled against for so long was as helpless as an ant before Yan Ning!

"Roar!!"

Blood Fang Marquis let out a furious roar.

The scales covering his body blazed with dazzling Bloodlight. His hundred-kilometer-long divine body erupted with terrifying energy, like a burning star.

Space twisted violently under that power, letting out a strained, mournful wail.

He was burning his divine body!

"Human! Don't get too cocky!"

Blood Fang Marquis's voice boomed like thunder.

"If I want to leave, you can't stop me!"

His enormous body suddenly shrank, turning into a streak of blood-colored light as he tried to tear through space and escape.

The speed granted by burning his divine body allowed him to break through the Space Seal in an instant. He was on the verge of entering the Dark Universe.

A cold light flashed in Yan Ning's eyes. "Big words. Do you think you can get away?"

Whoosh!!

Yan Ning vanished in an instant. Instant teleportation!

"Yan God Codex—Skyburner!"

His War Blade came down. A blade of light spanning the starry sky struck before Blood Fang King could escape, hitting his divine body!

"Shhk—"

Amid the grating sound of the cut, Blood Fang King let out a bloodcurdling scream.

"Ah!!"

"No... impossible!"

Blood Fang Marquis's severed body tumbled through the starry sky as he watched his divine body rapidly disintegrate in terror.

That single strike had annihilated fifty percent of his divine body in half a minute!

Yan Ning stepped forward and appeared beside Blood Fang King's shattered remains in an instant. "Die!"

"Boom!"

The blade of light swept past.

Blazing white flames surged through Blood Fang King's body, annihilating what remained of his divine body.

The Peak Marquis Demon Clan warrior let out one final wail before turning to ash amid the raging flames.

Yan Ning raised a hand, and a blood-red World Ring flew into his palm. "A Peak Marquis's collection should be pretty good."

He turned to Thunder Prison Marquis and the others, who stood dumbfounded. "What are you standing around for? Clean up the battlefield."

Thunder Prison Marquis finally snapped out of it and hurriedly bowed. "Thank you for saving us, my lord, Demon Flame Marquis! You can have all the spoils."

"No need. I only want this World Ring."

Yan Ning waved a hand.
