Chapter 978: Chapter 531: Trump Cards Revealed! Rematch with the Demon Venerable Avatar!

Above Panhai City, a massive hand seal appeared across the sky, its palm filled with a surging Thunder Pool, condensed into thousands of thunderbolts descending, crashing down before the hundreds of thousands of Demon Race soldiers could even react.

These hundreds of thousands of Demon Race soldiers, most of whom were only in the Condensing Seed Realm, could not withstand the Heavenly Thunder crashing down on them, let alone its faint lingering power, and were directly obliterated.

Jiang Shu’s eyes showed no emotional fluctuations as he turned to gaze at the City Defense Array that connected the grand force of the world, as well as the Early Stage Demon Lord gnashing its teeth in front of him.

"I’ve heard this line too many times, but they all died beneath my fists."

He could feel the illumination of the Black Sun. That Demon Venerable Avatar was surely on its way to hunt him down, so he had to fight quickly and decisively.

Dragon roars echoed through the space, dragon claws stretched out, wrapped in thunder chains.

For the ordinary Demon Race, the aura of the Dragon Clan was absolutely suppressive.

As he made his move, the Dragon Phase Dao emerged behind Jiang Shu.

At the same time, his fist shone with golden brilliance.

The Human Dao’s aura was incomparably prosperous, crackling with each punch, and the defensive array formed by the City Defense Array was shattered without the slightest effect, carrying a power entirely different from the Demon Domain. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

This is the Human Dao Supreme Fist.

This Human Dao Supreme Fist, unlike other Heavenly Rank Divine Powers, was created by Jiang Shu, and is now integrated into the Qi Swallowing Vientiane Fist. However, its essence remains brilliant, and as Jiang Shu’s realm increases and his understanding of the Dao rises, he finds that cultivating the Human Dao Supreme Fist seems to allow him to comprehend another Great Dao.

Though this Great Dao has yet to manifest, not even an embryo formed, it is still a vague concept, but Jiang Shu has already sensed it.

Upon seeing this fist, the Demon Lord was instantly shocked.

"When did you break through the realm?!"

Jiang Taixuan, a renowned human, could slay the Black Dragon Demon Lord with just an Early Stage Vientiane cultivation, let alone having now achieved the Middle Stage. No wonder the City Defense Array had no obstructive effect, for how could he be his opponent?

The Demon Lord’s expression greatly changed, reverting to its original form, a ferocious giant tiger hundreds of feet long, its fur seemingly cast from gold. Three Great Dao embryos appeared, and with a light leap, it vanished from sight, suddenly losing its target.

"Trivial trick."

Jiang Shu’s expression remained unchanged, and the Human Dao Supreme Fist roared forth, suddenly changing direction, reaching into space as if hitting something, creating massive tears, and a bloodied figure flew out—none other than the Demon Lord who had hidden himself.

The Dao he cultivated was the Hidden Space Dao, able to conceal form and lurk in darkness like a venomous snake, waiting for the right moment to strike. Cooperating with another Dao of slaughter called Geng Metal, he was once a notorious assassin who meticulously prepared to ascend among Demon Lords; even Middle Stage Vientiane experts might have suffered a loss to him.

Yet, in front of Jiang Shu, who had a profound understanding of the Space Dao, such concealment was truly insignificant. Having half its skeleton shattered, it lost combat ability immediately, submerged by the Thunder Pool.

"Ah!"

That was the Chaos Divine Thunder from a tribulation, acting on both flesh and soul, in just a few breaths devouring the Early Stage Demon Lord completely, turning into pure blood energy that flowed into Jiang Shu’s body, enhancing his vitality.

This is the most fundamental application of the Devouring Dao, further strengthened under Jiang Shu’s cultivation, able to refine a Demon Lord in a very short time.

At this moment, Jiang Shu’s heart tightened, and he looked back.

He sensed the aura of the Demon Venerable Avatar, which would catch up in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

It was time to leave.

Originally coming to this Panhai City was just to fish in troubled waters and kill a Demon Lord, but unexpectedly, the encounter with deployed Demon Race soldiers turned out to be a delightful surprise, saving who knows how many low-realm Human Clan cultivators with a single strike.

Jiang Shu’s figure flickered, intending to open a space passage to leave.

But from below Panhai City, a violent aura surged up, with faint blood energy emanating, and a claw wrapped in thunder chains reached into the void, grabbing towards Jiang Shu’s body.

"Thunder Flood Dragon Demon Monarch, I thought you intended to be a turtle hiding in its shell forever, but I didn’t expect you couldn’t hold back in the end."

Jiang Shu sneered, unyielding, clawing forward as well, and the thunder chains clashed, sending countless arcs of electricity flying, each capable of killing a Great Demon of the Transformation Realm.

This Thunder Flood Dragon had emerged from its secluded cultivation state after sensing his presence, but upon feeling his realm breakthrough, it hid again, watching that Demon Lord die in front of him.

Until sensing the aura of the Demon Venerable Avatar, it appeared, trying to block Jiang Shu.

The Thunder Flood Dragon Demon Monarch appeared before Jiang Shu, naturally not answering him, accepting control of the City Defense Array. Thunder covered the sky as if the heavens were raging, aiming to strike down the defiant rogue, one thunderbolt after another striking down.

Jiang Shu transformed into a human form, dressed in white, his figure tall and straight, bathed in Heavenly Thunder unscathed, walking slowly towards the Thunder Flood Dragon Demon Monarch.

Jiang Shu’s cultivation of the Thunder Dao was the Chaos Divine Thunder, equipped with other Daos’ special traits. The moment these so-called thunders struck him, they were worn down by the Disaster Dao encapsulated in the Chaos Divine Thunder beside him, rendering them ineffective.

"How is this possible, how is this possible?!"

The Thunder Flood Dragon Demon Monarch wore a face of disbelief, unable to accept that his thunder had no effect on Jiang Shu, and turned to escape.
