Demon Darbish staggered backward two steps before steadying himself. He could still feel the lingering penetration of Dongbo Xueying’s spear through his body, which made him feel deeply uneasy: “This terrifying penetration is merely a trivial matter—it cannot shake my powerful physique! But how did he suddenly vanish and teleport over a zhang away in an instant? Being able to shift position instantly even in the middle of battle? This is truly troublesome!”
“What?!” Dongbo Xueying was equally astonished. “He only retreated two steps despite my full-force strike?!”
He was ultimately at a disadvantage physically.
His body was merely at the peak of the Flying Immortal rank, and his supernatural battle Qi was only at the early Saint level.
In battle, he relied on the power derived from the ‘Primordial Penetration’ concept, whose might was already terrifying. However, his battle Qi was ultimately too weak, so Dongbo Xueying had acquired a semi-divine artifact—the Starstone Cloudfire Spear. With this semi-divine weapon combined with Primordial Penetration, his offensive power surged dramatically, finally granting him the ability to confront a peak Saint-level opponent directly.
Yet even with his full-strength attack, his opponent only stepped back two steps?
“He has an extremely strong body and immense power,” Dongbo Xueying concluded.
“Roar—”
The demon Darbish, having retreated two steps, opened his blood-dripping maw, revealing his fangs, and released a terrifying roar that made the very space tremble—
Popping, popping!
The roar spread outward in all directions, visibly rippling through the space itself. This roar carried the violent force of a volcanic eruption, and with the amplification of underlying principles, it could easily reduce a body like Dongbo Xueying’s to dust. Seeing the waves instantly spreading, Dongbo Xueying’s expression changed.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Dongbo Xueying immediately activated Primordial Penetration with his body, rapidly retreating. Normal flight speed was simply insufficient to escape this terrifying roar! Although Dongbo Xueying was dozens of times faster than the speed of sound, the roar carried principles of profound laws and swept outward instantaneously, affecting an area spanning over a thousand meters in an instant.
Fortunately, Primordial Penetration was extremely fast. Within the ruined inner fortress, Dongbo Xueying’s figure flickered three times midair, managing to retreat over two hundred meters away.
The roar’s power diminished rapidly with distance. By the time it reached two hundred meters, Dongbo Xueying twirled his spear, unleashing the combined might of water, fire, and wind principles to crush and scatter the shockwaves.
Demon Darbish also ceased his roar. This scream had clearly inflicted significant damage upon his throat, but with his terrifying regenerative abilities, he would recover soon enough.
“Swish! Swish!”
Dongbo Xueying instantly closed the distance to Darbish’s side.
“Die!” Dongbo Xueying instantly split into three figures, each appearing at three different directions around Darbish, all wielding spears and thrusting forward simultaneously.
“Huh?” Demon Darbish was greatly startled. “An illusion? Which one is real?”
The crimson light radiating from his body emitted waves of profound principles outward.
He wielded two massive bull-horn axes in panic, attempting to block.
When the waves reached two of the illusions, Dongbo Xueying’s true form, spear in hand, shifted sideways by merely a foot. Yet that single foot made all the difference, leaving the bull-horn axes unable to block effectively.
“Die!” Dongbo Xueying’s eyes burned with killing intent.
“Thrust!” The Starstone Cloudfire Spear pierced straight into Demon Darbish’s head. However, at that moment, Dongbo Xueying felt an unusual resistance, immediately realizing something was wrong. He twisted the spearhead slightly. Originally aimed at piercing the skull, it now instead slid into the face. Although resistance remained, he forced it through completely.
The spear fully penetrated the face.
Then it exploded! The explosive force fueled by the principles of water, fire, and wind surged into the demon’s skull, turning its insides into a mess.
Dongbo Xueying immediately retreated.
“This demon’s skull is just too hard,” Dongbo Xueying inwardly marveled. “Even my Primordial Penetration couldn’t pierce his skull. Fortunately, I quickly adapted my spear techniques to pierce through his face and kill him!”
After all, he had only mastered the embryonic form of Primordial Penetration, while this demon’s body was exceptionally strong.
“Crackle, crackle, crackle~~~”
Demon Darbish stood there motionless, but the wounds inside his head were rapidly healing, and the massive hole in his face was also quickly regenerating.
“What!” Dongbo Xueying was shocked. “An immortal body!”
Even supernatural beings have vital points on their bodies.
Organs like the heart and throat are typical vital points, and the head is the most critical of all. However, as one’s body grows stronger, these vital points gradually lose their lethality. Eventually, achieving an immortal body means that no part of the body remains a weak point—no matter how thoroughly the body is torn apart, it can regenerate completely.
Demons generally possess physical gifts even more terrifying than those of the ancient beings.
According to the intelligence records provided by the Xia Clan regarding demons, among fourth-tier demons, about two in ten possess immortal bodies. For fifth-tier demons, more than half possess such bodies. As for demigod-level demons… every single one possesses an immortal body.
This powerful demon had clearly cultivated his body to an extraordinary level, achieving the realm of immortality.
“General, save me!” Darbish’s consciousness immediately reached out through his communication artifact, urgently calling for help.
The Xia Clan possesses communication bracelets.
In the Dark Abyss, countless Demon God (demigods and deities) exist, and in the crafting of divine artifacts and magical equipment, they far surpass the Xia Clan. While these lower-tier demons cannot obtain powerful weapons, they do possess communication artifacts.
“Darbish? What’s the matter?”
“There is a supernatural being from the Xia Clan—I cannot defeat him!” Darbish anxiously replied.
“Who is he?”
“It’s Dongbo Xueying! His name is Dongbo Xueying!” Darbish desperately cried out. “General, save me!”
Although his head wound had not fully healed, he still clutched his massive bull-horn axes, desperately trying to defend.
In truth, only his roar posed any real threat to Dongbo Xueying. However, with the massive hole in his face not yet completely healed, he couldn’t unleash his roar.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!” Dongbo Xueying, employing Primordial Penetration, circled around him, launching repeated spear strikes.
His face exploded again.
His throat was pierced, blown open, and torn apart.
His two arms were also pierced with massive holes! Perhaps Darbish’s skull was extremely hard, and his demonic horns were equally tough. However, his regular muscles, skin, and scales could not withstand Dongbo Xueying’s spear. In an instant, his body was riddled with countless holes, and both arms were severed.
“General, save me!” Darbish’s consciousness urgently cried out through his communication artifact.
Having an immortal body does not mean one is truly immortal.
Even demigod-level demons had been slain by the Xia Clan’s demigods. Now, Demon Darbish was completely unable to resist, being mercilessly torn apart, destined to perish.
…
“Hmph.”
Dongbo Xueying stood still as fiery-red supernatural battle Qi surged from within him like countless threads, wrapping around the demon’s skull, arms, and legs. The demon’s body was severed and suppressed by the battle Qi, unable to reattach itself.
“Wow, his body has already achieved immortality, and his strength is formidable,” Dongbo Xueying muttered inwardly. He had not dared to block even a single axe strike from the demon from the beginning to end. “An ordinary peak Saint-level supernatural being encountering him would likely suffer greatly. Fortunately, my Primordial Penetration excels at piercing through space, allowing me to maintain control throughout the battle. Also fortunate was obtaining the Starstone Cloudfire Spear. Without it, I probably wouldn’t have pierced his scales!”
The demon’s body surface radiated a crimson glow, a manifestation of profound principles, combined with his armored scales.
Without the Starstone Cloudfire Spear… it would have been impossible to pierce through.
Even with this semi-divine artifact, at the very least, the demon’s skull could not be pierced, revealing the terrifying strength of his body.
