185: King-level first kill! Brilliant-level rewards!

“Accept.”

There was nothing to hesitate about. Chen Beixuan came to the Demon Realm precisely to complete the main quest line, [Repel the Demon Realm Invasion]. The two quests could be done together.

Seeing his agreement, Merlin and Megan smiled.

With a Chaos Mage, whom even the Demon God dared not touch, joining, this mission was guaranteed to succeed!

Chen Beixuan briefly looked at the rewards. The experience and gold coins went without saying, but what surprised him was that completing the quest would allow him to go to the Level 3 Main City and meet the King!

However, upon second thought, it wasn't hard to understand.

Repelling the Demon Realm was a great achievement, so it was normal for the King to bestow a reward.

But before destroying Demon God City, he still had one thing to do.

Looking at the two old men, he suddenly had an idea and asked,

“Do you two… know Earth-element magic?”

......

Demon God Mountain.

Thousands of kilometers south of Demon God City, it was also the central divine mountain of the Demon Realm.

A blood-red figure descended from the sky, landing on a flat stone platform, stirring up a mist of blood.

Boom!

Crack!

The World-Destroying Heavenly Punishment, appearing out of thin air, passed through his body and struck Zachariah, the Demon King hidden within him!

“...Demon God, I still can’t get rid of it. Please help...”

Zachariah’s muffled voice came from within his body. Hearing this, the Demon God waved his hand and released them.

After coming out, the Demon King immediately bowed and knelt, waiting for the Demon God to act.

But the Demon God completely ignored him, walking straight to the Three-Eyed Demon God puppet and attempting to clear the Black Flame.

The Demon King opened his mouth in surprise, but in the end, he could only lower his head and wait.

The Demon God shot out red light into the puppet’s body repeatedly, but there was no sign of the Black Flame decreasing. It continued to reduce the puppet’s lifespan.

After being taken into his body for more than ten minutes, he relied entirely on various life-extending methods and invincibility skills to prolong his survival time.

He had thought it would be enough to last through the duration of the Black Flame.

But now, it seemed the Black Flame was in an unremovable state!

“Hmph! Damn Chaos Mage!”

The Demon God snorted coldly, and a distant mountaintop exploded with a roar!

Rocks rolled everywhere, and the peak instantly became shorter.

As if to vent his anger, he blew up more than a dozen mountaintops before gradually stopping.

Seeing that the Demon God had finished venting, Zachariah finally couldn't help but ask the doubt in his heart.

“...Demon God, I want to know what is so special about the Chaos Mage. Why didn’t you kill him then? And why did you call me back...”

He truly couldn't hold back anymore.

He could already foresee that due to his departure, Demon God City would be leaderless, and the plan to invade the Human Realm would completely fail.

Even Demon God City itself would be annihilated, and his hundred years of effort would vanish into thin air. How could he be reconciled?

Even if he were to be executed by the Demon God today, he had to ask for an explanation!

The Demon God heard his question but was not angry. He just faced the mountains and said helplessly,

“The World Gods within the Six Realms restrict each other. There were other World Gods present at the time, so I couldn't break the rules. I called you back because I didn't want to see you die in vain. As for the Chaos Mage...”

At this point, he fell silent, seemingly recalling something.

Finally, he sighed deeply and said,

“The Chaos Mage... cannot be killed... You just need to remember that...”

“The Chaos Mage... cannot be killed?”

Zachariah could understand the previous words, but he was somewhat confused by this last sentence.

Is it difficult to kill, or truly unkillable?

Or is it inexhaustible?

Recalling the information in the Demon King’s inherited memories, the Chaos Mage who killed the previous Demon King and the current one were indeed not the same person.

Chaos Mage... is a title, not a specific person?

As his thoughts progressed to this point, Zachariah felt he was about to grasp the truth, but it was always just out of reach.

At this moment, the Demon God turned to look at him, and a single sentence directly made his brain crash.

“The status on you is called [Conviction]. I have already seen it. Your body will not last until the status disappears, which means...”

“...I... will die?”

Zachariah’s voice trembled slightly, and he rarely felt the fear of death.

However, the Demon God’s tone suddenly shifted, and he shook his head.

“There is a way to save your life, but it depends on whether you are willing. You might lose some things...”

As he spoke, the Demon God’s gaze swept to the side, to the Three-Eyed Demon God puppet being scorched by the Black Flame...

And Zachariah also seemed to understand something.

After a brief hesitation, his gaze became firm, and he bowed his head to express his stance.

“Please act, Demon God!”

The Demon God was very relieved and nodded with satisfaction.

Then, he released a sky full of blood mist, enveloping Zachariah and the Three-Eyed Demon God...

......

On the other side.

“Deeper, deeper, not yet. You two just keep digging down.”

Chen Beixuan stood with his hands on his hips, constantly urging the two old men to dig the pit.

Earth magic could dig dozens of meters at once, so the speed was quite fast.

He had come out too quickly then, only caring about holding onto their legs, and hadn't even had time to kill the dungeon BOSS he had glimpsed.

Now he realized that he had mistaken the BOSS earlier.

The Three-Eyed Demon God puppet was clearly just something the Demon God had placed there, not the main one.

He still had to return to the underground passage to kill the final BOSS...

Just then, a prompt suddenly appeared before Chen Beixuan!

[Ding! Congratulations on completing the first kill of the King-tier BOSS [Three-Eyed Demon God· Novaxi lv150]. A server-wide announcement will be made soon. Do you wish to hide your identity?]

His eyes lit up. The first kill was his!

“No!”

The next second.

The entire server vibrated!

“Brilliant-tier reward!”

Chen Beixuan’s fiery gaze was fixed on the first kill reward, his breathing slightly quickened.

He impatiently took out the stone to examine it.

——————

[Pet Deification Stone]: Brilliant-tier Item

Description: After use, it can raise any pet’s grade by one tier, up to Brilliant-tier, and increase its potential aptitude. Single-use item.

——————

Although Beixuan Turtle and Violet Firmament Divine Dragon were both gold quality, in terms of potential, Violet Firmament Divine Dragon was undoubtedly superior.

“Sorry, Turtle, I’ll definitely use it on you next time!”

Chen Beixuan mumbled, then waved his hand to summon the Violet Firmament Divine Dragon and grinned.

“Pet Deification Stone, use!”
