Redemption of a Born Demon

Chapter 594: Chapter 370: Ransacking the Lair, Leaving No Secrets

BOOM!!

But before he could finish speaking, the Black Flame around Yi Beidou surged violently, transforming into streams of Black Dragons that lunged toward Hongfa Immortal Monarch.

From beginning to end, Yi Beidou’s eyes remained perfectly calm.

There was no desire for communication. In fact, Hongfa Immortal Monarch detected a look of condescension and disgust in the other’s eyes, as if he were looking at trash.

’He sees me as trash, which is why he has no desire to talk. Does a person talk to trash? Does a person waste words on trash?’

In that instant, a realization dawned on Hongfa Immortal Monarch, followed by a furious rage he hadn’t felt in millennia.

’I, Hongfa Immortal Monarch, achieved the Dao 3,560 years ago. I have roamed the world unopposed, merged with the corpse of an Earth Immortal to achieve an immortal Dharma Body. I have reached the pinnacle of human history, standing at the apex of the river of time to look down upon billions of living beings. Like a god, like a saint, I am called a Monarch and an Ancestor—a rarity in this world.’

’But now, a junior dares to look at me like I’m trash.’

’This is an absolute, utter humiliation!!’

’Intolerable!! Absolutely intolerable!!’

’I must make him pay the price!!’

In that same instant, Hongfa Immortal Monarch’s wild, flowing hair stood on end, shooting toward the sky as his expression twisted into a ferocious scowl.

The next moment, he waved his hand, and a golden light shot out from his body, forming a golden barrier.

BOOM!!

The streams of Black Flame dragons collided with the golden light but were stopped cold, unable to advance another inch.

But the terrifying properties of the Black Flame took effect at the same time, clinging to the barrier of light, continuously burning and corroding it, transforming its very energetic essence.

"It can even burn and corrode my Immortal Golden Light? An unseen type of Immortal Power. No wonder he’s so arrogant. He really does have some skill."

Hongfa Immortal Monarch’s brows furrowed slightly. He keenly sensed the terrifying nature of the Black Flame; even his own body was sounding an alarm.

His Immortal Golden Light originated from the Earth Immortal Corpse. That power was incredibly solid, as eternal and indestructible as gold. Even when he faced the mortal forms of the Nine Heavens Dragon Martial Divine Monarch and the Netherworld Three Lives Great God, this power was only ever broken through with brute force, not unraveled and corroded.

But the Black Flame released by the young man before him was doing just that. He had a feeling that if this thing burned his physical body, something very unpleasant would happen.

’I can’t drag this on for too long. I need to use my true strength and end this quickly,’ Hongfa Immortal Monarch thought.

He was, after all, a peerless expert who had stood at the pinnacle of the Blue Star era, sweeping through the world undefeated. Despite his towering rage, he could still rationally analyze the situation.

His opponent had not merged with an Earth Immortal Corpse, so his Physical Ability reserves could not possibly compare. However, if the stalemate dragged on, the opponent’s Black Flame would likely corrode his own body before his energy was depleted, thus turning the tide of battle.

The safest way was to fight a decisive battle quickly, giving the enemy’s Black Flame no chance to spread and penetrate deeper.

In that case...

"Let this world once again witness the power of my, Hongfa Immortal Monarch’s, Golden Body Dharma Form!!"

Hongfa Immortal Monarch formed a seal with his palms before his chest as golden energy surged frantically.

WHOOSH!!

The dense, golden amber-like energy rapidly expanded, spreading, and spreading, and spreading even further!!

Under the impact of that power, even the Black Flame was forced to retreat!

One hundred meters, two hundred meters, one thousand meters!!

The terrifying energy continued to spread, ultimately reaching a horrifying height of over 1,300 meters.

"Look! What is that?!"

Watching the scene displayed on their screens, everyone felt an overwhelming sense of suffocation.

The golden energy twisted and writhed, forming a colossal, golden-armored giant that towered from earth to heaven, looking down upon everything in the world.

Over 1,300 meters tall, with a shoulder width exceeding 500 meters, the Golden Armor on its body was sharply defined and exuded a sacred aura. This Golden Armor giant stood atop the highest peak in the Starry Sky Country, creating a powerfully striking image.

The surrounding clouds parted on their own, and the snow on the mountain peaks crumbled, triggering an avalanche.

Before this heaven-reaching Golden Body Dharma Form, Yi Beidou’s figure was like a speck of dust. Even the majestic mountain peaks seemed minuscule in its presence.

Compared to the Heaven-Reaching Yang Spirit of Huaqing Immortal that Yi Beidou once faced in Zhi City, this was like comparing an adult to a child.

Most importantly, Yi Beidou could clearly sense that this giant Dharma Form was not an illusion but was completely condensed from materialized energy, capable of genuinely withstanding physical attacks.

"So it’s a solidified Dharma Form, created by using Metal-attribute Immortal Power to condense energy, then reinforced with Earth-attribute power for solidification?"

Yi Beidou murmured softly.

’This level of strength should be enough to withstand the damage from a close-range nuclear explosion without any harm. It’s truly a remarkable Divine Power.’

’However, this Divine Power probably didn’t originally belong to Hongfa Immortal Monarch, but to the Earth Immortal Corpse he merged with.’

"Willing to speak now? Finally understand what kind of existence you’re facing? But it’s too late, junior! I already gave you a chance!!"

The Golden Armor giant spoke, its voice more terrifying than thunder. Wherever the soundwaves passed, the snow on the mountains could be seen sliding down at an even more terrifying speed.

Those mountain peaks, so unreachable by humans, were like mere playthings before such an existence.

This was a great power that surpassed nature, a power belonging to an "Immortal"!!

"Pay the price!!"

The Golden Armor giant roared in anger. He raised his massive hand, nearly two hundred meters wide, and a dazzling light condensed in its palm as if he had plucked a star from the sky.

This was a phenomenon created by using the properties of Metal-attribute Immortal Power to highly condense and compress energy!

Then, the giant palm fell!!

WHOOSH!!

Visible gales and shockwaves swept out frantically. Within a thirty-kilometer radius, the clouds in the sky were wiped clean, and it was as if a level-12 hurricane blasted the ground, uprooting vast amounts of vegetation. The aftershocks alone were terrifying.

How terrifying would the actual attack be?

"Star-Plucker!!"

Following the Golden Armor giant’s shout, the massive palm abruptly enveloped Yi Beidou in the sky.

BOOM BOOM!!!

The terrifying light from the horrific explosion drowned everything. The world seemed to have turned into a giant pond, with massive ripples spreading across the sky. Even more than two hundred kilometers away, people could hear the deep, immense roar.

"My God!! What on earth happened at Denali?!"

"Did a nuclear bomb go off?!"

"The sky just lit up! It’s like daytime!"

"..."

Massive panic spread among the people of the Starry Sky Country. It was nighttime, so the terrifying phenomenon was impossible to hide.

Meanwhile, everyone who could observe the situation on-site fell silent, staring intently at their video feeds.

The billowing smoke quickly dissipated, revealing a scene that made everyone’s scalp tingle.

Denali Peak, the highest mountain in the Starry Sky Country—one-fifth of its summit had vanished in the aftershock of the attack!!

In terms of sheer spectacle, the Golden Armor giant’s attack might have seemed less impressive than a nuclear bomb, but in terms of actual destructive power, its terrifying might seemed to surpass that of a nuke’s core blast zone!

Humanity’s application of energy is still superficial, but the ancient Earth Immortals were already far ahead!!

"Reaching from earth to heaven, moving mountains and filling seas..."

Yuri couldn’t help but mutter to himself.

These were the ancient myths and legends of Donghua, but now they were a living reality.

The power of these beings could completely alter the entire surface topography of Earth!

This was true Divine Power!

But what about Yi Beidou?!

Just as everyone was wondering, a figure stepped out from the smoke.

His entire body was as black as ink-jade, covered in menacing Black Flame tentacles. He looked like the Black Heaven Demon Lord, with a throne of Demon Flame behind him.

Free Demonic Transformation!!

His figure was tiny in comparison, but his terrifying aura was just as heaven-shaking, as profound as an abyss, as imposing as a mountain.

Completely unharmed!!

Hongfa Immortal Monarch had merged with seventy percent of an Earth Immortal Corpse, but Yi Beidou in his current state of Free Demonic Transformation, his whole body transformed into Black Flame energy, was no weaker than a true Earth Immortal’s body.

Furthermore, their respective levels of control over their own bodies weren’t even in the same league!

"Is this all you have? I will give you a choice."

"Strip away the Earth Immortal Flesh and Blood and receive my Free Demonic Flame Seven Stars. If you survive, I will permit you to walk this world."

"Or, I will see you on your way."

Yi Beidou spoke calmly, his words like an imperial decree, allowing no doubt or refutation.
