"My lord, your subordinate Whitman has successfully discovered the whereabouts of a suspected Core Member of the Deni Family near the Xiluo Mountains." Whitman dared not delay and immediately bowed respectfully as he spoke.

"Oh? So you've finally found traces of this little mouse?" The graceful figure behind the curtain slowly stretched her body, gradually straightening her back.

" The Xiluo Mountains? Then I'll go ahead and wait for them." The graceful figure murmured to herself, her voice turning icy cold.

Whitman, however, wisely stayed to the side. Only after the lord of the castle had inquired about other details did Whitman carefully leave the hall.

" The Deni Family, so arrogant and domineering before, are they now being chased down like stray dogs?" The Purple-Haired Enchantress behind the gauze curtain couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth slightly, seemingly quite pleased.

The Deni Family, once considered one of the most powerful families in the Infernal Realm, is now forced to have its members fleeing in all directions.

This is normal, though. It's hard for a large family to never decline. Even a family as powerful as the Four Divine Beasts Clan experienced a period of decline and was even driven to the brink of ruin. It was only later that their fortunes turned and they rose again.

However, the Deni Family may not have such good fortune and be able to make a comeback.

"Someone come here." The Purple-Haired Enchantress's voice was alluring, yet cold and aloof.

At her command, the woman in black veil who had been outside immediately entered.

"Sister." The woman in black veil spoke normally this time, no longer daring to be so frivolous, as she knew her sister's personality well.

"Go and prepare, take some men and set up a perimeter around the Greenfield Mountains," the Purple-Haired Enchantress Bernice quickly instructed.

Based on the little mouse's route, it must have passed through that area.

"Yes, sister." The woman in black veil immediately withdrew.

Soon, Bernice was left alone in the ambiguous palace.

Bernice narrowed her eyes slightly and murmured, "Those brats from the Deni Family, do they think they can escape death by changing locations?"

She then clenched her fists, a flame of hatred flashing in her eyes.

At its peak, the Deni Family was a Asura clan, so she naturally wouldn't dare to retaliate. But now...

The Metal Lifeform flew at a constant speed. Inside Luo Ao and Echidna's room, Luo Ao was testing his new moves.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"...

Intense streams of fiery sword energy erupted wildly in the room, but the power of these moves was all confined to a fixed range.

" Luo Ao, what new technique is this now?" Echidna, having also awakened from her training, looked curiously at Luo Ao's new sword move.

Luo Ao was thrusting his sword forward through the air.

Although the sword energy did not actually hit any target, the intense and violent fiery energy still caused a violent tremor in the surrounding space.

"No." Luo Ao shook his head and drew his sword again.

When the sword energy and flames left the sword, they were just like a small flame, but in the next instant they burst into flames, bursting forth with intense light! As the sword trembled, several more streams of fiery sword energy poured out.

Luo Ao, however, frowned and changed his attack method once again.

Luo Ao was completely absorbed in comprehending the moves and didn't even pay attention to Echidna's earlier question.

He experimented repeatedly, various attack moves flashing through his mind, only to reject them time and again.

Continuous improvement...

The attack method Luo Ao wanted to create was one that was extremely fast, like a volcanic eruption, where all the power of the sword move would burst forth the instant the sword was drawn. However, because he incorporated the Profound Mysteries the ' Profound Mysteries of Fire Seed Technique ' into this move, it actually slowed down the speed of the power burst.

" Profound Mysteries of Fire Seed Technique, Burning..." A sudden flash of inspiration struck Luo Ao, as if he had thought of something.

"Burning shouldn't just be a slow burn; it can also be a moment of brilliance!" Luo Ao's lips curled into a light smile. He had finally discovered another side of the ' Profound Mysteries of Burning '.

Previously, he had always thought that 'burning' should be like 'a spark A Spark Sets the Prairie Ablaze' —a continuous and endless process.

He forgot that there are two types of 'burning'.

The slow ones burn gently, like a candle. The fast ones, however, are like a shooting star that flashes by, seeking only a moment of brilliant brilliance!

"Though the light of a meteor is fleeting, its unparalleled brilliance and beauty far surpass that of a thousand candles," Luo Ao said with a confident smile, before suddenly drawing his sword once more.

As the sword was drawn, a dazzling, blinding white light exploded instantly. Wherever the sword passed, the space trembled, as if everything was about to turn into nothingness.

"This move, with its boundless power, erupted like a volcano in an instant. It's finally done." With the successful creation of this move, Luo Ao had also officially and completely fused the profound Profound Mysteries of 'Explosion' and the ' Profound Mysteries of Burning '.

"That move is amazing! Is it the profound Profound Mysteries of the 'Explosion' Elemental Laws of Fire?" At this moment, seeing that Luo Ao had finished practicing, Echidna stepped forward and asked curiously.

"That's right." In a good mood, Luo Ao put away his longsword and went out with Echidna to a restaurant to relax.

" Luo Ao, what kind of profound Profound Mysteries did that Osm fuse with? Every time he made a move, I didn't even have time to see it clearly before those Highgod bandits fell down." Luo Ao and Ao had finally found Theodore, Theodore was now trying to guess what Profound Mysteries the black-robed Fiend Osm had fused with.

Speculating on which profound Profound Mysteries those powerful Fiend fused together is a pastime for these low-level Fiend to pass the time.

Just as Theodore was getting into his speech—

"Divine sense probing." Suddenly, Luo Ao sensed the divine sense passing by his body and casually mentioned it.

However, they didn't pay much attention. Generally speaking, even if Highgod uses their divine sense to investigate, they won't attack them after the investigation is complete.

However, this time, "Boom!"

The Metal Lifeform unexpectedly exploded.

Luo Ao and Echidna hovered in the air, looking ahead, while Theodore looked around with suspicion and uncertainty.

What happened?

"Where did these robbers come from, daring to attack us? Are they tired of living?"

The other Fiend were both shocked and enraged, and began to shout and curse.

Here, above a verdant plain, suddenly hundreds of people flew out from an ancient, dark green tree castle. The Fiend stared at these hundreds of people, clearly indicating that they were the ones who destroyed the Metal Lifeform.

Among the hundreds of people who flew up, the leader was a purple-haired woman whose body was covered only by a few vines and leaves. This woman was beautiful and stunning, but her gaze was very cold.

Her gaze first swept over the numerous Fiend, then settled on her employer Feilan, and the green-clad girl beside him, and she instantly let out a series of cold laughs.

Feilan seemed to recognize the stunningly beautiful enchantress, and his expression instantly changed drastically. He shouted shrilly, "We have already left Azure Sun Prefecture according to Lord Douglan's orders. What more do you want? Do you want to kill the entire Deni Family before you're satisfied?"

The stunningly beautiful enchantress sneered, "You, a mere brat from the Deni Family, dare to speak to me like that? But you're right about one thing: everyone in the Deni Family should die!"

As the Purple-Haired Enchantress spoke, a flash of hysterical hatred crossed her eyes.

She stared coldly at Feilan and his companion, as if they were two dead men.
