CHAPTER 68: CHAPTER 68: TURNING TAIL AND FLEEING! AS IF RESOLUTELY DETERMINED!

Within the Secret Realm.

Gu Xing was preparing to continue forward with Vera.

Suddenly.

A violent surge of Demonic Qi swept from the center of the Secret Realm.

"Damn human! You’ve slaughtered so many of the demon race!"

Accompanied by a deafening roar, a wolf-shaped demon race entwined with blood-red demon patterns appeared before the two.

His eyes, burning with hellfire, locked deadly onto Gu Xing!

He was Vorn, a legendary level Demon King slain by humans seventy years ago.

Only...

With the help of the blood and Demonic Qi in the Secret Realm, he successfully resurrected five years ago.

Moreover, the unique environment of the Secret Realm allowed him to advance to the Demon God Level!

This corresponds to the Myth Level of the human race!

Five years ago, when Vorn first awakened, he encountered a powerful human.

At that time, he cleverly found a scapegoat to escape unscathed.

And now...

His level had reached Awakened Tier Nine.

In this Secret Realm, he was invincible!

"Human, you’re very unlucky."

Vorn’s claws ignited with dark purple flames.

"You remind me of that woman from five years ago! Prepare to face divine wrath!"

Vorn had no idea that the being he was facing now was even more terrifying than that "freakish human" from five years ago.

Gu Xing looked at this muddleheaded demon race, full of doubt.

Does this demon race have a problem with its brain?

With the power Vera just displayed, he still dared to approach?

[Wolf God: Vorn]

[Talent: Demon God One Star]

[Level: Awakened Tier Nine]

[Power: 802]

[Constitution: 804]

[Spirit: 642]

[Speed: 820]

[Skills: Demon God’s Body, Blood Escape...]

[Kill Reward: Killing a Demon God can obtain a Divine Pattern; consuming a Divine Pattern allows one more Guardian Beast to be contracted]

Upon seeing the attribute panel, Gu Xing finally understood the source of this demon race’s confidence!

Demon God Level!

But as his gaze fell on the "kill reward," his pupils abruptly contracted.

In human history, no Demon God had ever been slain, so naturally, no one knew this rule:

Killing a Demon God could allow a Beast Master to contract one more Guardian Beast!

Gu Xing’s gaze fell on Vorn’s body, his eyes narrowing slightly.

This might be the only opportunity to kill a Demon God!

He was well aware that in the Alternate Space, Demon King Level demons were exceedingly rare, let alone Demon God Level.

Even encountering a Demon King, the level would at least be King Level.

With his current strength, trying to provoke a King Level...

That’s a pipe dream!

"Human race, as long as you’re willing to serve the demon race, I can spare your life!" Vorn continued his bluster.

Meeting a human race face-to-face for the first time, he felt compelled to show this human race the greatest leniency!

However.

He completely failed to notice that Gu Xing’s eyes were growing increasingly dangerous!

If only he could kill this Demon God...

He could contract one more Guardian Beast at the Extraordinary Level!

This thought made Gu Xing’s heartbeat race.

A Beast Master’s strength directly relates to the number of contracted beasts; having one more Guardian Beast isn’t just a simple numerical addition but a qualitative leap....

Several Guardian Beasts working together could enhance strength exponentially.

"Human race, I’m talking to you!"

In his anger, Vorn’s frustration grew as Gu Xing didn’t kneel to beg for mercy.

The last time he awakened, his power hadn’t fully recovered, but now he was an Awakened Tier Nine Demon God...

This human dared to look down on him like this!

Unforgivable!

However, at this moment, Gu Xing had already given an order to Vera.

This Demon God must not be spared!

It must be a one-hit kill!

"Vera!"

With Gu Xing’s command, Vera launched her strongest attack without hesitation —

"Elf Monarchy!"

The Divine Ring behind Vera suddenly shimmered!

[Natural Spirit (Vera)]

[Talent: Myth Two Stars]

[Level: Awakened Tier Nine]

[Power: 310]

[Constitution: 320]

[Spirit: 1130→3390]

[Speed: 300]

[Skills: Natural Lament, Elf Monarchy, Natural Domain (Initial)]

Three thousand points of terrifying spiritual power surged in the void, yet Gu Xing remained unsatisfied.

"It’s still not enough!"

Silver light flashed in his eyes, and the Emperor’s Gaze suddenly activated.

"Sovereign! Slaughter!"

Blood-red slaughter energy wrapped around Vera’s body, intertwining with emerald divine light.

If not constrained by the awakening level, Gu Xing wished Vera could unleash her domain.

"Natural Lament!"

The second Divine Ring appeared behind Vera, and the dual divine might distorted the air.

Vorn’s menacing face suddenly froze.

This oppressive power... how is it possible?!

In terror, he realized that even though they were both Awakened Tier Nine, the oppressive sensation from the other side made his soul tremble.

But wasn’t he supposed to be the strongest Demon God Level?

But the situation before him left him no time to think!

"Demon God’s Body!"

Not daring to hesitate, Vorn immediately activated his strongest skill.

In Gu Xing’s vision, Vorn’s power and speed instantly doubled.

Yet.

The difference was still tremendous compared to the current Vera!

Not to mention, Vera had his talent as support.

Vera slowly raised her slender arm, the seemingly gentle motion twisting the space...

But just as this deadly strike was about to land...

Vorn suddenly turned and fled!

Completely disregarding the dignity and honor of the demon race!

The fleeing motion showed no hesitation!

What’s going on?

Gu Xing was momentarily stunned.

In his understanding, the demon race had always been synonymous with brutality and bloodlust, never retreating even at the risk of death.

Yet this self-proclaimed Demon God actually... fled?

Watching Vorn’s retreating figure without a backward glance, Gu Xing couldn’t help but twitch his lips.

This is a Demon God?

However, the Secret Realm was only this big, where could he possibly escape to?

"Vera, pursue!"

This Demon God must die today!

...

Due to Long Zhenguo personally opening the Secret Realm, Gu Qianqian and her group weren’t dispersed and were directly teleported to the central area of the Secret Realm.

Upon landing, everyone immediately formed a defense formation, warily scanning their surroundings.

After all, given the mutations within the Secret Realm, the number of demon races should be extraordinarily large.

However.

It’s too quiet...

After waiting for a long time, they couldn’t even spot a single demon race.

"Strange, where have all the demon races gone? Did they somehow know we are coming?"

"Impossible, even a Legendary Level Demon King couldn’t have such high intelligence."

"I have a feeling... it’s like the demon race here has been cleared out?"

"Impossible! 90% of the new students were sent away, who could clear out the demon hoard?"

They didn’t know that Gu Xing had already massacred all the demon races within a three-kilometer radius.

As everyone speculated, a sound suddenly broke through the air from afar.

"Something’s coming! That speed..."

"Could it be that Legendary Level Demon King? It’s charging toward us!"

"Everyone on alert! Prepare to engage!"

As Vorn approached, everyone commanded their Guardian Beasts to attack this demon race.

Yet.

All the attacks fell on Vorn without leaving a mark.

"The attacks are completely ineffective... Is this really a Demon King?"

Under their terrified gazes, Vorn charged straight toward them.

But unexpectedly, this Demon God dashed directly over their heads without even glancing at them.

"What’s going on? Why didn’t he attack us?"

"I... I feel like he... seems to be fleeing for his life?"

...

...
