251: You should all go down and join your demon lord.

The System's notification sound rang out clearly.

Over eighty thousand points had been credited, along with a new defensive skill!

Chen Nian was very satisfied with this.

However, in stark contrast to his satisfaction—

"The... the Demon Lord... is dead?!"

"He was... killed in a single blow?!"

"Even the Demon Lord was no match for him?!"

The remaining Demonic Evils stared at the spot where the Demon Lord had dissipated, then looked at that figure standing like a god or demon, collectively turning to stone!

Extreme terror, like the coldest chains, instantly seized the throat of every Demonic Evil!

Their bodies went cold, and their minds went blank!

They had originally hoped the Demon Lord could turn the tide, slay this terrifying human, and avenge their fallen kin.

They were even fantasizing that after the Demon Lord's true body descended, he could lead them back to the abyss to recreate their glory.

But reality dealt them the heaviest, most ruthless blow!

The Demon Lord was dead!

He died so easily, so devoid of dignity!

Like a fly swatted casually to death!

Even the Demon Lord wasn't a match for this human for even a single exchange.

What did they, these remnants of a defeated army, even count for?

ants? Dust? They probably didn't even count as those!

Extreme terror, like the coldest chains, instantly seized the throat of every Demonic Evil!

They felt as if their blood was frozen and their Souls were trembling!

Some Demonic Evils with weaker psychological endurance were so terrified they collapsed directly to the ground, losing control of their bowels and bladders in a pathetic display!

Just then—

*Thud!*

A heavy sound of kneeling broke the deathly silence.

The Demonic Evil who had been clamoring the loudest earlier was seen crawling and rolling onto the ground.

Pressing its head firmly into the cold, viscous pool of blood, it let out a hysterical, tearful wail for mercy:

"Great One! Great One, spare my life! I know my mistake! I'll never dare to be your enemy again!"

"I beg of you! Stay your hand and spare my lowly life!"

With it taking the lead, the other Demonic Evils seemed to have caught onto a final straw, following suit one after another.

*Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!*

The sounds of kneeling rang out repeatedly, like dumplings being dropped into a pot!

The dozens of remaining Demonic Evils, no matter how fierce they were before, were now all prostrate on the ground, kowtowing like pounding garlic!

"Have mercy, Great One! Have mercy!"

"We were forced! The Crimson Flame Demon Lord and the Incinerator forced us to do this!"

"We actually wanted to abandon the darkness for the light long ago! We only regret that we never had the chance!"

They were making a pathetic spectacle of themselves, as humble as ants!

To stay alive, they could unhesitatingly trample upon their former beliefs, betray their former companions, and grovel before the god of slaughter in front of them!

That fawning appearance formed an extremely ironic contrast with their previous arrogant and overbearing posture.

Chen Nian slowly lowered his head, his gaze calmly sweeping over the Demonic Evils kneeling all over the floor, kowtowing until their foreheads bled.

His eyes were indifferent, without a single ripple of emotion.

"Begging for mercy?"

Chen Nian spoke softly; his voice wasn't loud, but it clearly overrode all the crying and pleading, reaching the ears of every Demonic Evil.

The corners of his mouth slowly curled into an arc of extreme contempt and cruelty.

"Weren't you quite arrogant just now when your Demon Lord was here, saying you'd make my body and Soul perish?"

"What? Your master just died, and your backbones softened this quickly?"

"You don't even have half the spine of your Demon Lord. You really are the trash among trash!"

His words were like cold knives, ruthlessly scraping away the last shred of the Demonic Evils' dignity.

Hearing this, the Demonic Evils kowtowed even harder, their cries becoming more shrill:

"Please understand, Great One! We were blinded by greed just now, we were blind!"

"The Demon Lord was cruel and heartless; we were forced and had no choice!"

"We've long been unable to stand his actions!"

"We beg the Great One to give us a chance to turn over a new leaf! We will definitely change our ways and be new demons!"

Listening to these bottomless pleas for mercy, the disgust and impatience in Chen Nian's eyes grew more intense.

He shook his head slightly, as if shooing away a swarm of annoying flies.

"Trash is trash; you don't even have the qualifications to be dogs."

"You should go down and accompany your Demon Lord, who actually showed some spine for once."

Before his voice had even faded, Chen Nian didn't give them any chance to react and attacked directly!

*Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!*

The dark-red Heaven-Burning Flame erupted again, sweeping toward the kneeling Demonic Evils like a tsunami!

"No—!!!"

"You demon! You'll die a horrible death!"

The Demonic Evils let out curses and wails of extreme despair before being instantly swallowed by the sea of fire and turned to ash!

Chen Nian hovered in the air like a god or demon descended to the world, ruthlessly harvesting lives.

At times, he unleashed Heaven-Burning Flame, burning patches of Demonic Evils into charcoal.

At times, he released Nether Shocks, blowing Demonic Evils to pieces.

At times, he flicked out Heart-Devouring Demon Silk, slicing Demonic Evils into fragments.

His efficiency was horrifyingly high!

[Ding! Killed a Fifth-Rank Demonic Evil, gained 12,888 points!]

[Ding! Killed a Sixth-Tier Demonic Evil, gained 21,891 points!]

[Ding! Killed a Sixth-Tier Demonic Evil, gained 25,552 points!]

[Ding! Killed a Seventh-Tier Demon, gained 36,521 points!]

...The System's notifications were continuous, and the points soared at an unprecedented speed!

Chen Nian was very satisfied with this.

These Demonic Evils were powerful and numerous; clearing them out was fast and satisfying.

They were simply perfect point generators.

For a time, the entire altar core was transformed into a true Hell on earth!

Flames burned, explosions were constant, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and screams and wails rose and fell one after another!

The thick smell of char and blood, mixed with the aura of Evil Energy, was nauseating.

However, Chen Nian didn't care at all, simply continuing to attack and efficiently clearing the scene.

Soon, under Chen Nian's efficient purging,

The Demonic Evils within the altar core were swept clean.

The entire Demon Cave fell completely silent.

Dead silence!

Absolute silence enveloped this area.

Only the crackling of the burning flames remained, along with the nauseating, thick smell of char and blood permeating the air.

Chen Nian hovered in the air and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.

With a thought, his powerful perception instantly swept in all directions like a tide.

Only when he no longer sensed the aura of any Demonic Evils did he nod in satisfaction.

This trip to the Demon Cave could be considered a Perfection-level success.

It had to be said that the harvest was truly bountiful.

Not only had he killed the Abyssal Overlord, the Crimson Flame Demon Lord, gaining a high amount of points and a new skill,

But he had also obtained a key item for tracking other Abyss Forces—the "abyssal beacon."

This pointed the way for him to continue farming points in the future.

Although it was a bit of a pity he couldn't directly find the coordinates of the Gloomy Abyss, now that he had a lead, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.

Those so-called Abyss Masters—not a single one would escape!
