Shen Mo laughed immediately.
This Peak True Demon Lord was quite amusing.
He even spoke in an overly refined tone.
Clearly, he had read some of the human race’s classical texts.
“Human, for you to make it this far, and even casually kill a Silver-Crowned True Demon Lord, you must be quite the capable Demon Suppression Guard.”
“Your head will make a fine addition as the eighteenth piece in my collection!”
The Peak True Demon Lord let out a sinister cackle.
In the next instant, demonic energy surged wildly around him, spreading like a black mist to the heavens.
In the blink of an eye, the mist condensed into the form of a colossal demonic ox.
The beast stood over ten zhang tall, and more than eighty zhang long.
Ferocious and bloodthirsty, it looked ready to devour anyone in its path.
Compared to it, Shen Mo seemed as insignificant as an ant.
“Kill!”
The Peak True Demon Lord pointed his finger, and the massive ox charged straight at Shen Mo with wild force.
All the other True Demon Lords and the gathered demons looked on with scorn.
To them, this young human was already a dead man.
But the very next moment—
A gale howled in reverse.
Above the human’s head appeared the image of an enormous beast.
Its long trunk curled upward, as though it could draw in all the rivers, lakes, and seas under heaven.
Its ivory tusks stood tall, as if they could pierce the strongest city walls in the world.
Its four legs stood like heavenly pillars.
Its body was as massive as a small mountain.
One could feel that, with just a single stomp, it could flatten the entire demon settlement beneath its feet.
“Biluo Yellow Springs Divine Spear!”
Shen Mo let out a low roar.
An ancient, boundless divine spear appeared in a flash.
The Primal Elephant’s long trunk curled and, with explosive strength, hurled the spear forward.
The charging demonic ox formed of black mist didn’t even slow the divine spear.
In an instant, it was torn apart into countless fragments of demonic energy.
In the next breath, the spear pierced straight through the Peak True Demon Lord without resistance.
Boom!
The ground trembled violently as cracks spread out like a spiderweb in all directions.
Chunks of rock tumbled down, waking many demonized beasts from their slumber.
Frightened, they scattered in all directions.
Shen Mo summoned a gust of wind to blow away the dust and smoke.
The massive demon settlement, home to over a hundred thousand Lesser Demons and thousands of True Demon Lords, had been utterly obliterated.
In its place was nothing but a colossal sinkhole.
There weren’t even many demon corpses left to be seen.
All had been vaporized in an instant by that terrifying force.
At the bottom of the pit, water began to seep out.
It was the underground river nearby, now exposed.
Shen Mo nodded slightly.
He was extremely satisfied with the result of that strike.
Without using the manifestation, he might have only managed to kill the Peak True Demon Lord and the surrounding demons.
But by unleashing the full power of the Primal Elephant Manifestation, he had completely wiped this demon settlement from the face of the earth.
The level of power was simply terrifying.
Shen Mo estimated that the might of this one strike had increased by at least tenfold.
“However, the cost is high too.”
“Manifesting the Primal Elephant for just ten breaths consumed a tenth of my blood energy.”
Shen Mo’s expression turned serious.
At this rate of consumption, his entire blood energy reserve could only support the Primal Elephant Manifestation for a hundred breaths.
Of course, this was without factoring in blood energy regeneration.
“I wonder how long other Demon Suppression Guards can sustain their manifestation forms with their full blood energy reserves?”
“If I get the chance, I should ask Zhang Longxiang.”
Shen Mo pondered thoughtfully.
Just then, he sensed waves of demonic aura approaching.
He immediately realized—the power of that strike had been too overwhelming. Even the surrounding demons must have felt something was wrong and rushed over to investigate.
“Time to go. Let them deal with this mess themselves.”
Shen Mo smiled faintly and used his Heaven-Treading Phantom Step, vanishing in the blink of an eye.
A hundred breaths after he left, two of the strongest Peak True Demon Lords arrived at the scene.
They stared at the massive crater in stunned silence.
Not long after, more True Demon Lords arrived.
Their expressions were no less shocked.
That massive demon settlement—home to over three hundred thousand Lesser Demons and several thousand True Demons.
Even a Peak True Demon Lord had been stationed there.
And yet, it had vanished overnight? Reduced to a massive sinkhole?
“Judging by the lingering aura, this was definitely the work of a powerful Demon Suppression Guard… This level of destruction must have involved a manifestation! When did such a figure arrive on the fourth level?”
One Peak True Demon Lord’s face was grim.
“No, we can usually detect the movements of Manifestation Realm experts. There’s been no sign of any such person entering the fourth level recently.”
“This must be the aftermath of a powerful artifact detonating. The Demon Suppression Fortress does possess such weapons—like those developed at Gold Mountain Fortress and Xuanwu Fortress.”
Another Peak True Demon Lord spoke in a low tone.
“Regardless of the cause, this matter must be reported to Lord An Wu at once! Go!”
The demons scattered in all directions, hurrying to report the situation to the Fifth Great Sky Demon.
Whether it was an unidentified Manifestation Realm cultivator or a newly developed powerful weapon, either possibility could jeopardize their future plans.
The report reached the Fifth Great Sky Demon, An Wu.
Two hours later—
An elite demon squad arrived at the scene.
The demons guarding the crater quickly stepped aside in reverence.
They instantly recognized the figure within the fog at the center of the group.
Such dense, pure fog—there was no need to guess who it cloaked.
It could only be the Fifth Great Sky Demon, master of the power of Filth Mist—An Wu.
The majority of the fourth level of the Demon Suppression Sea was An Wu’s domain.
These demons, naturally, were his subordinates.
Buzz.
The dense fog surged forward, arriving at the crater’s edge in the blink of an eye.
The mist briefly receded, revealing An Wu’s figure.
He stood silently at the crater’s edge for a long time, then descended into it.
After some time, he returned to the surface.
Two Peak True Demon Lords stood respectfully at his side.
One of them cautiously asked, “My lord, what exactly happened here?”
The other, more impatient in nature, said with urgency, “My lord, did a Manifestation Realm cultivator infiltrate our fourth level?”
An Wu remained silent for a long time before shaking his head. “At present, no Manifestation Realm cultivator has entered the Demon Suppression Sea.”
“The residual traces in this crater are also completely different from any Manifestation Realm cultivator currently known to the Demon Suppression Fortress.”
“Most likely, the fortress has developed a new type of weapon and tested it here on the fourth level.”
The impatient Peak True Demon Lord couldn’t help but ask, “Could it be that one of the Demon Suppression Guards stationed on this level recently broke through to the Manifestation Realm?”
An Wu glanced at him and said flatly, “Impossible. Breaking through to the Manifestation Realm triggers numerous phenomena.”
“There’s hardly any way to conceal those phenomena. So it is absolutely impossible for a guard to have advanced during battle without it being noticed.”
“Understood…” The impatient True Demon Lord didn’t dare press further and could only nod.
An Wu spoke calmly, “There’s no need to concern ourselves with this for now.”
“As for what this weapon is… the Demon Investigators will find out.”
Only after hearing An Wu’s words did the two Peak True Demon Lords finally calm down.
As long as no Manifestation Realm cultivator had entered the fourth level of the Demon Suppression Sea, they could rest easier.
They were no match for such an opponent.
The demons all watched An Wu leave, then gradually dispersed as well.
Only the massive crater remained—a silent testament to the earth-shattering power of Shen Mo’s spear.
