124: Entering the Demon Kingdom Alone

The viscous darkness, accompanied by bone-chilling cold and foul Devilish Qi, instantly engulfed Lin Jingyu.

The dizziness from the spatial transition had no effect on his formidable Physical Body; the faint glow of the Myriad Tribulations Indestructible Body circulated on his skin, easily repelling the encroaching filth.

His feet landed not on soil, but on a cold, slimy surface paved with massive bones covered in fine scales.

Before him was not the underground cavern he had imagined, but a boundless, eerie space shrouded in a viscous, ink-like demonic mist.

The demonic mist churned, revealing the vague outlines of twisted, jagged giant bone mountains in the distance. The air was filled with a strong smell of sulfur, blood, and a chilling sense of decay and rot.

This was the Nine Nether Demon Kingdom!

"Roar!"

"Kill him!"

Almost the instant Lin Jingyu landed, sharp demonic roars erupted from all directions!

Dozens of crimson demonic eyes lit up in the demonic mist, filled with bloodthirsty greed! These were the elite Demon Kingdom guards stationed inside the entrance!

They came in various forms: Ox-Headed Demons wielding giant axes burning with demonic flames, Serpent-Bodied Demons brandishing bone whips covered in barbs, and Winged Demons hovering in the air like giant bats, spitting corrosive venom from their mouths!

The weakest were at the Meridian Opening Realm Peak, and the aura of the leading Ox-Headed Demons had even reached the Divine Treasury Realm!

"Seeking death!" Lin Jingyu's eyes were cold.

The yin prison token at his waist continuously emitted a scorching desire, its gray light flickering in the core like breathing.

He desperately needed evolution points!

Without further ado, he moved!

Like a tiger entering a flock of sheep!

With one step, Movement Technique! His figure left an afterimage in place, while his true body appeared before a Divine Treasury Realm Ox-Headed Demon!

The Ox-Headed Demon reacted extremely quickly, its burning giant axe cleaving down with the force to split mountains and crack stones!

Lin Jingyu neither dodged nor evaded; his right fist, coming from behind, struck first, directly smashing towards the axe blade!

Clang—!!!

A deafening clang of metal! The Divine Treasury Realm demonic axe, capable of splitting small mountains, was actually sent flying high by a bare flesh fist!

The axe blade shattered, sparks flying!

Terrifying power transferred along the axe handle, and the Ox-Headed Demon's thick arms instantly twisted and burst, bones piercing through flesh!

Pfft!

Lin Jingyu's left fist followed like lightning, directly piercing through its thick-scaled chest!

With a shake of his arm, the massive demonic body was torn in half like a broken sack! Foul blood and internal organs splattered everywhere!

"evolution points +500!"

A System notification flashed in his mind.

"Hiss!" The nearby Serpent-Bodied Demon was horrified, its bone whip coiling like a poisonous snake towards Lin Jingyu's neck, attempting to entangle and strangle him!

Lin Jingyu didn't even look at it, grabbing it with a backhand!

Crack!

The bone whip, as tough as fine iron, was caught by his bare hands. With a squeeze of his five fingers, the bone whip snapped inch by inch! The Serpent-Bodied Demon let out a shrill scream!

Lin Jingyu swung his arm, lifting the broken bone whip along with the entire Serpent-Bodied Demon, and slammed it like a meteor hammer towards a group of Winged Demons diving down from the air!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

A series of dull impacts! Several Winged Demons were smashed by this violent "snake hammer," their bones broken and tendons snapped, falling with screams! The Serpent-Bodied Demon directly exploded into a cloud of blood mist!

"evolution points +300! +100! +100!..."

The killing machine was fully activated!

Lin Jingyu's figure flickered in the demonic mist, each appearance accompanied by the dull thud of flesh exploding and the wails of demons.

Without any fancy Moves, his fists, palms, fingers, elbows, and knees—every part of his body—transformed into the most terrifying weapons!

With one punch, three demons in his path were strung together and pierced through!

With one palm strike, a Divine Treasury Realm Winged Demon, along with the venom it spat, was flattened into a meat paste on the ground!

With one knee strike, the head of an Ox-Headed Demon attempting a sneak attack was driven into its chest cavity!

A flash of Grandmist violet light at his fingertips, and several condensed finger winds shot out, causing the heads of several demons spitting demonic flames in the distance to explode in response!

The demon guards' claws scratched his body, leaving only a few white marks, unable to even break his skin!

Toxic demonic breath spewed forth, but was easily evaporated and purified by the divine radiance of the Myriad Tribulations Indestructible Body!

He was like a deity walking through the Demon Kingdom; wherever he passed, only scattered limbs and rapidly cooling demonic blood remained!

The evolution points notification sounded like a dense drumbeat, continuously ringing in his mind!

In just a dozen breaths, dozens of elite demon guards in this area near the entrance had been slaughtered!

Demonic blood gathered into small streams on the ground, and the strong smell of blood made the demonic mist churn even more violently.

[System Panel]

[evolution points]: 18500 → 23800 (Slain Divine Treasury Realm Demon Guards *3, Meridian Opening Realm Peak Demon Guards *27)

Lin Jingyu shook off the foul blood clinging to his hands; the faint glow of the Myriad Tribulations Indestructible Body circulated, instantly annihilating the filth.

He looked into the depths of the demonic mist, where a heavier, more violent aura emanated.

The yin prison token at his waist flickered gray light even faster, the scorching sensation intensifying, subtly pointing in a certain direction, conveying an almost greedy hunger.

"The appetizers are over," Lin Jingyu murmured, Battle Intent burning in his eyes.

These evolution points were far from enough! He needed stronger prey!

Just then!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Heavy footsteps, like muffled thunder, came from the depths of the demonic mist, shaking the ground slightly.

Three fierce auras, far more powerful than the previous demon guards, rapidly approached like three moving volcanoes!

The demonic mist was forcefully pushed aside, revealing three massive figures.

On the left, there was a Lava Troll nearly four zhang tall! Its entire body was composed of burning black rock, with crimson magma flowing through the cracks, dragging a gigantic lava warhammer that also burned with fierce flames!

With every step, the ground was scorched with black footprints. Its aura had reached the Dharma Aspect Realm Second Heaven!

On the right, there was a giant scorpion, magnified thousands of times!

Its entire body was covered in dark blue carapace, gleaming with metallic cold light. Its two massive pincers opened and closed with an ear-piercing grinding sound, and a deadly blue-glowing stinger on its tail was raised high, locking onto Lin Jingyu.

It was also at the Dharma Aspect Realm Second Heaven!

The one in the center was the most bizarre!

It seemed to be composed of countless twisted shadows and fragments of wailing Souls, with no fixed form, only coalescing into a blurry, humanoid silhouette wearing a tattered cloak within the mist.

It had no physical weapon in its hands, only two constantly rotating black vortices that emitted Soul-devouring power! Its aura was the most elusive and unpredictable, subtly touching the Dharma Idol Realm Third Heaven!

This was Shadow Devourer, the Demon General who commanded the entrance passage of the Demon Kingdom!

"Human! How dare you trespass into the Demon Kingdom! Slaughtering our demon guards! You deserve ten thousand deaths!" The Lava Troll let out a thunderous roar, its lava warhammer raised high, and hot air currents swept out!

"His Soul... is very delicious!" Shadow Devourer's voice was like countless fine needles rubbing together, piercing into his mind, filled with temptation and greed.

The dark blue giant scorpion silently adjusted its position, its deadly tail stinger trembling slightly, seeking an opportunity for a fatal strike.

Facing the oppressive might of the three Dharma Aspect Demon Generals, Lin Jingyu showed no fear; instead, a cold arc curved at the corner of his mouth.

"Finally, something decent has arrived."

He twisted his neck, his bones crackling like popping beans. Grandmist violet Qi faintly appeared around him, the immortal divine radiance of the Myriad Tribulations Indestructible Body flowed beneath his muscle lines, and the patterns of the Rule of Strength condensed on his fist.

"Come at me all at once," Lin Jingyu hooked his finger at the three Demon Generals, his tone flat but filled with extreme contempt, "to save me the trouble of finding you one by one."
