Somewhere far from the battlefield, the Fiend King and his ten demon generals were observing the performance of the ten Empyrean God who were facing off against Ten Thousand Mountains Island.
"Such a brutal fighting style. It's a shame this kid isn't staying in our Fiend Valley as a demon."
Seeing his demons being slaughtered in droves by Zhou Qing, the Fiend King clicked his tongue in amazement.
"Hahaha..."
Upon hearing the Fiend King's words, the demon generals beside him burst into laughter.
After a moment, the Fiend King spoke, "My children, who is willing to fight this brat?"
"Your Majesty, I am willing to volunteer for battle."
"Your Majesty, my great axe is itching for battle!"
"This humble general is willing to fight."
Upon hearing the Fiend King's words, the demon generals immediately vied to fight Zhou Qing.
Seeing his subordinates so enthusiastic, the Fiend King also became interested. So he pointed to two burly demon generals and said, " A Da, A Er, you two go together."
"Yes."
The two demons who were chosen will immediately obey the order.
Upon seeing this, the remaining demons immediately began to murmur amongst themselves.
"His Majesty actually sent both my elder brothers on the mission!"
"With his two older brothers attacking him, this kid is doomed."
"Among them, only that Fei You could barely manage to deal with both the eldest and second eldest brothers at the same time."
At the pass under Zhou Qing's command, he was relentlessly slaughtering the hordes of demons attacking him.
But after a while, he noticed that the number of demons rushing up the mountain had suddenly decreased.
Upon closer inspection, he realized that many demons were making way for the two enormous creatures.
These two enormous creatures were several meters tall, with dark red skin all over their bodies. One held a huge axe in both hands, and the other wielded a pair of giant hammers.
Demons and monsters...
Seeing this, Zhou Qing immediately rubbed his hands together, eager to try his hand at it.
After killing off half the miscellaneous soldiers, two finally arrived who could help him stretch his muscles.
The other nine Empyrean God were greatly shocked when they saw this.
It turned out to be the Giant Axe General and the Twin Hammers General, the two strongest among the demon generals.
Immediately, Fei You, who was still fighting with ordinary demons, shouted, "Junior Brother Taixu, be careful! These are Giant Axe General and Twin Hammers General! Don't fight them head-on!"
Then he shouted to Empyrean God Zhenbu, "Fellow Daoist Zhen Bu, hurry and rescue Junior Brother Taixu!"
But before the Empyrean God Zhenbu could come to Zhou Qing's aid, the two demon generals had already attacked him.
First came the Giant Axe General, who swung his Giant Axe and slashed fiercely at Zhou Qing.
Sky Rend Claw!
Upon seeing this, Zhou Qing immediately lunged forward with his claw, but he immediately felt a jolt in his tiger's mouth and staggered back several steps.
What an incredibly powerful divine body!
Zhou Qing was secretly alarmed.
If it were merely a divine body as powerful as Yaksha, its strength wouldn't be this terrifying. This Giant Axe General also possess a fourth layer of Primordial Power that can amplify its power.
At this moment, the Twin Hammers General also attacked.
In an instant, the two Twin Hammers General slammed straight down on Zhou Qing.
Looking at the giant hammer that resembled two stars, Zhou Qing did not dodge, but chose to face the challenge head-on.
The Great Extinction Divine Power!
Heartforce!
The Time Power!
The Space Power!
Heaven-Exterminating Claw!
Zhou Qing unleashed his full power, grabbing at the Twin Hammers General with one claw.
When the claws and the hammers collide, the Twin Hammers General change drastically.
Under Zhou Qing's all-out attack, he couldn't hold onto his weapons, and the two giant hammers fell to the ground with a "clang".
The next moment, Zhou Qing pressed his advantage, and a sharp claw strike pierced the head of the Twin Hammers General.
Then, with an incredulous look in his eyes, the Twin Hammers General vanished into the world.
Witnessing his companion being killed, the Giant Axe General was also filled with fear and immediately tried to run away.
However, he immediately felt a powerful suppressive force coming towards him.
Dark World!
Under the suppression of the Dark World, the Giant Axe General suddenly find it difficult to move.
At this moment, Zhou Qing unleashed his power again, killing him.
" The Giant Axe General and the Twin Hammers General... were killed?!"
The Empyrean God on Ten Thousand Mountains Island were incredulous to see Zhou Qing kill the two demon generals, the Giant Axe General and the Twin Hammers General, in succession.
In particular, Empyrean God Feiyou discovered that Zhou Qing's strength was much greater than when they fought before.
If Zhou Qing had sparred with him using his current strength, he would never have been able to hold his own against Zhou Qing for so long.
Could it be a supernatural power? But what kind of supernatural power could unleash such astonishing force?
The Empyrean God Feiyou was completely baffled by this.
Upon seeing that the Giant Axe General and the Twin Hammers General had been killed by Zhou Qing, the demon generals immediately erupted in chaos.
"This kid is too strong. He killed my eldest and second brothers."
"Terrifying! My eldest and second brothers, who respectively possess the Earth Power and the Starforce at the fourth level, are no match for this guy."
"It seems that only His Majesty can deal with this brat now."
"Quiet!"
Seeing his demon generals chattering amongst themselves, the Fiend King immediately reprimanded them.
"For a creature created by its master to be so terrified by a Empyrean God —what kind of behavior is this!"
Seeing the Fiend King's anger, the demon generals immediately fell silent.
"Hmph!" Looking at the demon generals who were now silent in fear, the Fiend King slammed the black staff in his hand into the ground.
"You guys go deal with the remaining Empyrean God, I'll handle this kid myself."
After saying this, the Fiend King led the remaining eight demons to the mountain peak where Zhou Qing and the others were stationed.
As soon as the Fiend King and his demon generals appeared, the nine Empyrean God who were fighting with ordinary demons immediately became highly tense.
The demons looked around and finally each chose a Empyrean God to fight.
The Fiend King, with a clear objective, headed straight for Zhou Qing.
He wielded a long black staff, wore a golden gourd at his waist, and had horns on his head that were longer than those of other demons; his divine aura was terrifying...
Upon seeing these features, Zhou Qing immediately realized that the burly figure before him was none other than the Fiend King, the guardian of the Fiend Ice Valley.
Seeing that the Fiend King had his eye on Zhou Qing, Empyrean God Feiyou immediately warned, "Junior Brother Taixu, this Fiend King is quite powerful; you must be careful."
Although he already knew that Zhou Qing's strength was far greater than he had imagined, Empyrean God Feiyou couldn't help but give him a word of advice.
After all, he had fought the Fiend King many times and was deeply impressed by the Fiend King's terror.
As the Fiend King approached, the ordinary demons who had been constantly offering their heads to Zhou Qing immediately retreated.
"Boy, I've heard Snowfiend and Purgatory God praising you these past few days, it's gotten to the point where my ears are calloused." As he sized up Zhou Qing, the Fiend King stepped forward.
"Today, I'll see if you're as capable as they say."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the Fiend King swung his long staff at Zhou Qing.
The blow was incredibly fast, arriving in front of Zhou Qing in the blink of an eye.
Faced with the Fiend King's powerful attack, Zhou Qing merely smiled contemptuously and did not dodge.
boom!
With a loud bang, the scene that the Fiend King had envisioned— Zhou Qing being smashed away—did not occur.
Then, upon closer inspection, the Fiend King discovered that Zhou Qing was enveloped in a layer of nearly transparent fine sand, which remained completely unharmed when he struck him with his staff.
At that moment, the Fiend King felt a jolt of fear and looked up sharply, only to discover a transparent crystal world in the sky.
This world is incredibly realistic, complete with all sorts of things such as earth, mountains, rivers, gales, thunder, fire, swamps, and the sky.
The next moment, the crystal world suddenly crashed down, and the Fiend King was sent flying backward, spitting out blood.
Seeing this, Zhou Qing smiled and took out a crystal gourd.
With a thought, the crystal world he had just smashed into the demons turned into countless grains of sand and entered the gourd.
The Heavenstar Gourd was Supreme Xiantian Spirit-Treasure that Zhou Qing obtained from Nangong Hu.
Because of its ability to attack from a distance, the Heavenstar Gourd was one of his most powerful tools for plundering prisoners from World Prison for a long time.
And because he found it very convenient to use, Zhou Qing even combined the Heavenstar Gourd with his unique martial arts skills.
For example, the move Zhou Qing used to deal with the Fiend King was the Dark World he unleashed using the Heavenstar Gourd.
The Heavenstar Gourd contains 108,000 Heavenstar Divine Sand. Zhou Qing uses 3,000 of these sands as a foundation to form a Dark World, and the 108,000 sands can then form 36 Dark World.
Using these thirty-six Dark World to attack the enemy, the enemy will feel that Zhou Qing's attack is as vast as a world.
Of course, for the Fiend King who had already stepped into the threshold of True God Dao Ancestor, his methods were no match for him.
What truly allowed Zhou Qing to crush the Fiend King was the Pure Yang Jindan that had already undergone transformation.
That's right. Ever since the demons attacked, Zhou Qing has been fighting with clones that have used the " Waterflame Jindan Refining Technique ".
It was precisely because Zhou Qing used his Second-Tier True Immortal power, comparable to that of the Dao Ancestor, that the Heavenstar Gourd could exert such great power.
