The Great Demon (Seeking Reads!)

It took less than half a day.

Lei Zhan stood amidst the clouds, his feet planted on a black sailboat magic treasure. Looking into the distance, a tiny black speck appeared on the horizon of the North Dark Sea.

"It took another day of flying just to spot this island," Lei Zhan murmured, a hint of a smile gracing his handsome face.

The vision of an immortal cultivator was extraordinary, and with Lei Zhan's powerful soul, he could see a mosquito clearly from twenty miles away.

Despite the vast distance, Lei Zhan could still make out the figures of human beings on the island.

"Even at my leisurely flying pace, I must have covered seventy or eighty thousand miles in a day," Lei Zhan observed the small black speck carefully. "Finally, I've found a place. I wonder what level of cultivators reside on this island."

"Still, with my strength and the Star-Plucking Hand divine ability, I have nothing to fear, even from a Wanxiang True Person. Besides, I only intend to find a temporary place to rest and get some food and drink."

Lei Zhan pondered, his mind made up.

As for the bad luck of running into a Primordial Spirit Daoist here... Primordial Spirit Daoists were considered formidable experts; most spent their time in secluded cultivation within their own caves and would naturally have no interest in an ordinary island.

The island Lei Zhan saw was completely unremarkable. Islands like this were as numerous as hairs on an ox across the North Dark Sea, usually home to small tribes with only one or two Purple Mansion cultivators.

"I'll head there first. If I sense anything amiss, I'll just steer clear."

Whoosh! With a thought, the black sailboat beneath his feet transformed into a streak of light, speeding toward the distant island.

"Hmm?" Within the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Lei Zhan arrived near the island.

The sailboat magic treasure came to an abrupt halt, hiding within the layers of clouds as Lei Zhan looked down.

"There are fluctuations on that island."

Lei Zhan gazed down at the island below. Judging by the intensity and general direction of the fluctuations, he immediately raised his eyes.

It should be Purple Mansion-level cultivators fighting, Lei Zhan judged. His Divine Sense instantly spread out like a tidal wave, enveloping the entire island.

Ever since receiving the soul visualization technique Inner Contemplation of Sun and Moon Bright Buddha from Immortal Juhua six years ago, he had practiced it daily without fail. With a single thought, his Divine Sense could cover a radius of eighty miles.

Since he was at most fifty miles away from the island, his Divine Sense could easily probe it.

On the island.

"Sea Dragon Demon King, are you intending to go to war with my Black Water Island?"

A burly, black-faced man shouted in rage. Beside him stood a delicate young woman, both of them struggling to fend off the attacks.

The one attacking them was a green-robed man with triangular eyes.

Although the green-robed man also emitted Purple Mansion-level fluctuations, he was able to take on two opponents at once, pressing them with frantic attacks.

All around them, countless minor demons with fish heads, shrimp heads, and crab shells were locked in a slaughter against various innate lifeforms.

"War?" the green-robed man with triangular eyes sneered. "Since when has this Sea Dragon Demon King ever feared your Black Water Island?"

As a Great Demon of these eight hundred miles, Sea Dragon possessed the cultivation of a late-stage Purple Mansion God and Devil body-refiner. With over ten thousand shrimp soldiers and crab generals under his command, he naturally had no fear of a small tribe like the Black Water Clan, which only had two Qi-refining Purple Mansion cultivators.

"However..." The green-robed man with triangular eyes glanced at the delicate woman struggling under his assault. "Old Thief Black Water, you are ugly as sin, but the daughter you've sired is not only gifted but quite a beauty. If you are willing to marry her to me as my seventeenth concubine and hand over that magic treasure you obtained a few days ago, this Demon King will..."

"Hmph! Dream on!" The delicate woman's face turned pale with fury at these words. She had grown up on Black Water Island her entire life. Within an eight-hundred-mile radius, the only Great Demon was this Sea Dragon Great Demon, who had lived for nearly a thousand years.

Over those thousand years, this Sea Dragon Great Demon had abducted countless human women. Most of them, after being toyed with, were stripped, butchered, and eaten as rations by these monsters.

"You damned sea loach, you're courting death!" The black-faced man was beyond enraged. His daughter was the genius of the entire Black Water Clan; she had relied on the clan's Qi-refining techniques to reach the early stage of the Purple Mansion before the age of fifty.

He could never hand over the precious magic treasure he had found on the seabed a few days ago. That was the hope for the Black Water Clan's future prosperity. If he used that treasure as a stepping stone for his daughter to join a major sect in the North Sea Commandery City, the entire Black Water Clan might one day produce a Wanxiang True Person. It could not be given away lightly.

"Hmm?" A bloodthirsty killing intent flashed in Sea Dragon Demon King's triangular eyes. "Sea loach? Today, the treasure is mine, and the beauty... is mine as well! Little ones, kill them! If we slaughter the Black Water Clan today, we'll feast on human flesh to our hearts' content when we return!"

"Yes!"

"Eat human flesh! Eat human flesh!"

"Brothers, charge! Slaughter the Black Water Clan!"

The minor demons with their monstrous heads brandished various weapons, fighting even more fiercely as they surged like a tide toward the humans.

In an instant, the pressure on the entire Black Water Clan multiplied.

"Brother..." The delicate woman, who was struggling to fend off the Sea Dragon Great Demon, suddenly froze. Among the countless Black Water clansmen, a young innate lifeform was cut in two at the waist by the giant pincers of a crab demon.

"Hmph, you little beauty, how dare you be distracted while fighting me?" The Sea Dragon Great Demon's eyes lit up, and he lashed out with a long, barbed whip.

Puff. A series of flying swords blocked the incoming whip, but the immense impact still sent the delicate woman flying, her aura instantly wilting.

"Damn it! Damn it!" The black-faced man was furious. Gritting his teeth, his face flushed red, and his Purple Mansion-level aura suddenly surged.

"Die! Die! Die! Die for me!" The black-faced man roared. The nine black stone orbs dancing before him accelerated, whistling toward the Sea Dragon Great Demon.

"A forbidden technique! Father..." The delicate woman's expression changed. Gritting her teeth, she controlled her flying swords to continue attacking the Sea Dragon Great Demon. Her father, a late-stage Purple Mansion cultivator, had been forced to use a forbidden technique; if they couldn't take down this Sea Dragon Great Demon today, their entire Black Water Clan would be finished.

"Hmm? Using a forbidden technique?" Sea Dragon Demon King sneered. Did he think he could kill a Purple Mansion Great Demon of the God and Devil body-refining path just by using a forbidden technique? What a delusion!

"Decisive, aren't you? Too bad, even with a forbidden technique, you're going to die!"

Rumble...

Suddenly, a massive phantom of a Water-Fire Grinding Disc appeared out of thin air above Black Water Island, completely enveloping the Sea Dragon Great Demon and the minor demons within a thousand-foot radius.

The grinding disc rotated slowly, resonating like thunder as endless surging azure seawater and raging, burning flames intertwined with one another.

"Ah! Help!"

"Save us, Great King!"

The Water-Fire Grinding Disc appeared for only a fleeting moment, yet those Demon Race members who were merely at the Xiantian level were instantly shredded and pulverized by the terrifying power of water and fire.

"This is... the might of the Dao!" The Sea Dragon Great Demon was horrified. His figure flickered, and he immediately revealed his true form. In an instant, a Single-Horned Flood Dragon Snake a thousand feet in size appeared above the island.

The Single-Horned Flood Dragon Snake's dense, fine scales were the size of palms, shimmering with a faint cyan light as he thrashed about, struggling against the Water-Fire Grinding Disc.

"Sea Dragon Demon King? A mere Demon Race at the late Purple Mansion stage—it's already a stretch for a Demon Race at the Wanxiang level to be called a Demon King, yet you dare to style yourself as the Sea Dragon Demon King. It only invites ridicule."

A barely audible scoff echoed in the air. "I thought you were some divine beast or exotic species; I didn't expect you to be nothing more than a sea snake with a horn."

As the words fell.

Following that, with a "boom," the thousand-foot-wide Water-Fire Grinding Disc instantly expanded, completely enveloping the Sea Dragon Great Demon who had transformed into his true form.

In an instant, the endless grinding force of water and fire shredded him frantically. Even though this Sea Dragon Great Demon was a practitioner of the Gods and Devils body-refining path, he was pulverized in a heartbeat.

"Die! Die!" The dark-faced man was still struggling to control the Nine Black Stone Orbs, but suddenly, he looked around in bewilderment. "This... they're all dead?"

The Water-Fire Grinding Disc had appeared suddenly, obliterating a massive number of the Demon Race in an instant, only to vanish without a trace. It was as if nothing had ever happened.

Whoosh~~~

A handsome youth in black robes appeared out of thin air. With a wave of his hand, he collected the magic treasures left behind by the Sea Dragon Great Demon.

Although Lei Zhan could obliterate a Great Demon who practiced the Gods and Devils body-refining path, it was somewhat difficult to destroy mortal-grade magic treasures using a Water-Fire Grinding Disc at the level of a Domain Realm of the Dao.

These treasures that had not been destroyed were his spoils of war, and they were all worth liquid essence, so he naturally could not let them go.
