Figures of Demons and Monsters appeared in the vast lake.

"Twelve..."

Fang Xing’s eyes lit up as he looked at the Demons and Monsters in the water.

"SWOOSH—!"

In a single bound, his figure vanished.

"Heh heh, here’s another one."

"This one’s mine!"

In the lake, a Snake Monster watched Fang Xing appear, thrilled. Its long tongue flickered, its body surged with a faint, dark light. The lake water roiled, transforming into a barrage of water arrows that shot toward him.

Fang Xing easily dodged the water arrows and drew his saber in a flash.

"SSSKT—!!"

A Red Flame Blade Qi, dozens of feet long, erupted, unleashing a crisscrossing wave of energy.

"SQUELCH—!!"

The Snake Monster’s head was severed in an instant, its blood staining the lake red.

’This is bad!’

Sensing Fang Xing’s aura, the other Demons and Monsters panicked and scrambled to dive deeper into the water.

"BOOM!!!"

But in the next instant, Fang Xing raised his hand. A True Qi Palm Seal blasted out, causing the lake to erupt in waves over ten meters high, instantly blasting the Demons and Monsters out of the water.

"WHOOSH—!"

His Blade Qi arced through the air. The Red Flame Blade Qi shot out, and several Demons and Monsters were instantly cut down.

Spotting the few Demons and Monsters fleeing in the distance, Fang Xing circulated his True Qi and ran across the surface of the waves, quickly pursuing them.

For him, Spirit Monster Level Demons and Monsters posed no challenge at all.

Twelve Demons and Monsters, and not a single one would escape!

Even those that dove deep into the water were hunted down and killed.

He leaped ashore and gazed at the floating carcasses of the demonic Water Monsters.

Fang Xing sheathed his saber!

’Twelve Demons and Monsters, a little over ten thousand Enhancement Points.’

"BOOM—!!!"

A tremendous roar echoed from the island. In the forest, a monster over a hundred feet long appeared before his eyes.

Profound Flood Dragon!

Killing intent filled Fang Xing’s eyes as he watched the Great Demon approach.

’Compared to in the water, the Profound Flood Dragon’s power is greatly reduced on land.’

Through the combined efforts of Lin Ze and his group, this Initial Realm Demon King had already been heavily injured.

"SWOOSH!!"

With a flash, Fang Xing vanished from the spot.

’Strike them when they’re down!’

’I’ve killed plenty of Demons and Monsters, but never a Great Demon.’

Seeing Fang Xing block its path, the Profound Flood Dragon roared and lashed out with its long tail like a whip.

"THUD—!"

With a dull thud, the Profound Flood Dragon’s tail slammed into Fang Xing.

Yet he stood there completely unharmed, his body covered by a layer of red Scale Armor.

Dragon Scale Red Armor!

He could take a direct blow from an Initial Realm Great Demon and remain unscathed.

"CRACK!!"

He grabbed the Profound Flood Dragon’s tail with both hands, the veins on his arms bulging.

"BOOM!!!"

Using his astonishing Divine Power, Fang Xing held fast to the tail and brutally slammed the creature to one side.

A massive boulder shattered on impact, and a patch of the Profound Flood Dragon’s scales were torn away.

"BOOM!!!"

Fang Xing didn’t let go. Still gripping the tail, he swung the creature around and slammed it down on the other side.

His Divine Power, amplified by his True Qi, was so immense that not even an Initial Realm Demon King could break free.

Boulders shattered, the ground trembled.

’He... can do that?!’

Lin Ze’s group, who had just caught up, were instantly dumbfounded.

An Initial Realm Great Demon, held in a death grip and being smashed around like a ragdoll.

The scene was a visceral, visual shock.

The Profound Flood Dragon thrashed madly, roaring and hissing, but it was completely unable to escape.

Its Scale Armor was being flayed off, piece by piece.

The Profound Flood Dragon’s head was a mangled, bloody pulp.

’That strength...’

’How does he have such astonishing Divine Power!’

Everyone’s hearts pounded in their chests as they watched.

The power of an Initial Realm Great Demon was truly astonishing.

Yet Fang Xing held it in a death grip, relentlessly smashing it against the ground.

The method was simple and brutally violent!

A truly brutal spectacle!

"BOOM!!!"

The sound reverberated, and the very ground seemed to tremble.

Fang Xing finally let go. The Profound Flood Dragon’s upper body was a bloody ruin, more than half of its scales torn away.

On land, the Profound Flood Dragon’s power was severely diminished.

But that was only in relative terms.

"ROAR!!!"

Before the Profound Flood Dragon could counterattack, a Dragon’s Roar resounded. The Dragon Qi within Fang Xing’s body condensed into a phantom dragon that charged fearlessly at the heavily injured beast.

Dragon Battle in the Wild!

This incredibly fierce Palm Force, combined with his dense and astonishing True Qi, erupted with immense power.

RUMBLE!!!

With a tremendous crash, the Profound Flood Dragon’s body twisted violently.

Already grievously wounded, this latest blow caused even the astonishing Life Force of the Initial Realm Great Demon to plummet.

At the same time, Lin Ze’s group immediately rushed forward.

The combined strike from the dozen or so people once again struck the grievously wounded Profound Flood Dragon.

More scales were torn away.

A huge amount of Demon Blood sprayed everywhere, leaving a scene of carnage.

After their joint attack, the Profound Flood Dragon was left barely breathing.

Fang Xing’s expression changed. He immediately grabbed the Profound Flood Dragon’s tail and slammed it to one side.

At the same time, he drew his saber, and its sharp blade cleanly severed the Profound Flood Dragon’s head.

Only the headless body remained, twitching reflexively.

’It’s not dead yet!’

Fang Xing’s eye twitched. No crimson light had entered his body, which meant the Profound Flood Dragon still had some Life Force.

’The Demon and Monster Core!’

Fang Xing’s gaze fell upon the Profound Flood Dragon’s vital point. His Demon Suppression Saber tore it open, and he dug out a fist-sized, red Inner Core. A thick, foul stench filled the air.

The instant he carved out the Profound Flood Dragon Core, Fang Xing saw a crimson light rise and merge into his body.

’Ten thousand points!’

Fang Xing’s heart pounded as he looked at the sudden surge of Enhancement Points.

Killing an Initial Realm Great Demon... the reward was far greater than he had anticipated.

’A full ten thousand Enhancement Points.’

’This is more profitable than killing a Martial Artist from the Blood Demon Sect.’

’Even a True Qi Third Layer Martial Artist from the Blood Demon Sect is only worth five thousand Enhancement Points.’

’One Initial Realm Great Demon is worth a full ten thousand Enhancement Points.’

’Totally worth it!’

Fang Xing calmed his mind, his gaze fixed on the bright red Demon and Monster Core in his hand.

[Initial Realm Demon and Monster Core. Contains the Demon Monster Essence. Imbued with intense, fiendish Evil Qi and a remnant of the demon’s will. Enhancement requires 10,000 Points!]

"Hm?"

’This thing can be enhanced, too...’

Looking at the Demon and Monster Core in his hand, Fang Xing’s eyes flickered.

’Ten thousand Enhancement Points...’

’That’s not just expensive, it’s exorbitant!’

’What effect will it have after being enhanced?’

’Will it become a Middle Realm Demon and Monster Core, or something else?’

Staring at the Demon and Monster Core, Fang Xing grew curious.

’I’ve enhanced Treasure Medicines and Elixirs before.’

’But I’ve never enhanced a Demon and Monster Core.’

’Besides, the information for this enhancement seems a bit more detailed than usual.’
