The radiant glow of dawn overflowed, and the realm of the demon gods appeared above the ancient great demon. Within it, various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them was a wise demon god, who spoke golden lotuses, expounding the profound and mysterious principles of the great Dao.
The various demon gods were deeply immersed, as if they had entered a certain state of enlightenment.
Roar!
The heavens and earth trembled, golden lotuses surged from the ground, demonic energy crisscrossed, and divine light enveloped the “demon city.”
“I am the ancient…” At this moment, the ancient great demon’s eyes suddenly erupted with a brilliant light, a light of unparalleled ferocity. Its massive hand reached for the sky, holding the demon city in its palm.
“Great Demon.”
As it roared these two words, the ancient great demon’s aura completely erupted.
“So strong, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt this power and was deeply shaken. This power was a hundred times stronger than before.
The myriad races imprisoned here, witnessing this scene, were also struck with awe.
Some were native beings, while others were supreme overlords who had ascended from the lower realms. Yet, at this moment, they were all rendered speechless by what they saw.
“Too powerful. This treasure ascending to a Dao artifact is even stronger than ordinary Dao artifacts.”
“Who exactly is this human?”
At this moment, Lin Fan appeared to them like a celestial being—his flowing hair, resolute face, sharp and domineering gaze, and his hands clasped behind his back as he stared into the void—all left a deep impression on the hearts of the myriad races.
“Sun-Chasing Soul-Splitting Spear.”
“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”
…
In this moment, Lin Fan sent the four great commanders’ Dao artifacts flying into the void.
“Break.”
Crack!
The sound of collapse echoed as the four Dao artifacts shattered instantly, and torrents of energy shot out. The wills of the Dao artifacts scattered, trying to escape.
The ancient great demon’s massive hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing these Dao artifact wills and swallowing them in one gulp. Its power surged once again.
If others saw Lin Fan shatter four Dao artifacts in one go, they would surely spit out blood in shock. This was too extravagant, extravagance to the point of madness.
Lin Fan’s own skill in artifact forging was unmatched in the world. With sufficient materials, he could create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts effortlessly.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient great demon, like the sound of bones shattering, creaking and cracking.
The ancient great demon, originally ten thousand zhang tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand zhang.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan raised his hand, grasping the “demon city” in his palm, feeling a surge of joy. So strong, incredibly strong.
Finally, it had ascended to a Dao artifact. Although it was only a low-grade Dao artifact, the power it contained was even greater than that of a mid-grade Dao artifact.
“Master, I need Saint Yang Pills for cultivation.” At this moment, something astonishing happened—the ancient great demon, seated at the center of the demon city, suddenly spoke.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient great demon to possess autonomous consciousness.
Though Lin Fan was shocked, he was also filled with elation. This gave him hope—the hope of the ancient great demon regaining its former glory.
With a wave of his sleeve, a river of a million Saint Yang Pills condensed and flew into the “demon city.” The ancient great demon opened its mouth, swallowing the million pills, and began refining them.
There were still two million Saint Yang Pills left, which Lin Fan decided to keep in reserve, just in case.
At this moment, the ancient great demon’s aura surged once again, leaving Lin Fan utterly astonished.
Great Perfection of the Azure Heaven Realm.
Initial stage of the Desolate Heaven Realm.
Mid-stage of the Desolate Heaven Realm.
…
“This is too insane.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient great demon, whose cultivation rose as easily as drinking water. However, when it reached the mid-stage of the Desolate Heaven Realm, its aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient to satisfy its appetite.
Although Lin Fan possessed the Phoenix Divine Tree, which continuously refined Saint Yang Pills, even the Divine Tree couldn’t keep up with the ancient great demon’s needs at this rate.
It seemed that in the future, he would need to plunder more treasures.
At this moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something—the Lord of Despair was not in Despair City, which meant there must be many treasures there. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?
“Senior, save us…”
“Senior, please release us.”
At this moment, the myriad races imprisoned in the cages excitedly called out. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful, strong enough to single-handedly conquer Despair City, slay the four great commanders, and have the artifact spirit devour a million ancient beings.
Terrifying, truly terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing one of the imprisoned myriad races, and instructed them to rescue their fellow beings. Meanwhile, Lin Fan transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the four spires.
Plunder—first, he would plunder the four great commanders.
The released myriad races wanted to express their gratitude to Lin Fan, but when they looked up, they found that the human senior had already flown into the distance. They could only bow in reverence before setting off to rescue their comrades.
First Commander’s treasure trove: three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two top-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
Second Commander’s treasure trove: poor, extremely poor—only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
Third Commander’s treasure trove: empty, so poor that there wasn’t even a pair of underwear—a naked runner.
Fourth Commander’s treasure trove: five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four great commanders of the ancient race, how can they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly helpless, then flew towards the residence of the Lord of Despair.
This was his last hope. If there were no valuable treasures there, it would truly be a disaster.
In fact, Lin Fan didn’t know that the four great commanders of Despair City’s ancient race had many subordinates, and the resources they consumed were exceptionally vast.
Especially since the four great commanders were focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm, they were often in seclusion. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills was already quite good.
Every time they attempted to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm, the four great commanders would become penniless.
The First Commander had originally planned to attempt another breakthrough, but Lin Fan’s appearance had halted his progress, allowing these spiritual artifacts to remain. Otherwise, they would have been refined into energy for the breakthrough.
At this moment, Lin Fan stood before a tightly shut stone door, carved with various patterns. However, Lin Fan paid little attention to these patterns. The only thing he wanted to know was whether the treasures behind this door would be worth it.
Lin Fan extended his hand of hope, silently praying.
Please, be worth it…
The radiant glow of dawn overflowed, and the realm of the demon gods appeared above the ancient great demon. Various demon gods rode the wind, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them, a wise demon god spoke golden lotuses, expounding the profound and mysterious principles of the great Dao.
All kinds of demon gods were immersed in it, as if they had entered a certain realm.
Roar!
The heavens and earth trembled, golden lotuses surged from the ground, demonic energy swept across, and divine light enveloped the “Demon City.”
“I am the ancient…” At this moment, the ancient great demon’s eyes suddenly burst with a brilliant light, a light of unparalleled ferocity. His massive hand reached towards the sky, holding the demon city in his palm.
“Great Demon.”
As he roared these two words, the ancient great demon’s aura completely erupted.
“So powerful, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt this power and was deeply shaken. This force was a hundred times stronger than before.

…
In this moment, Lin Fan hurled the four great commanders’ Dao artifacts into the void.
“Break.”
Crack!
The sound of collapse echoed as the four Dao artifacts shattered instantly. Streams of energy shot out, and the wills of the Dao artifacts scattered, trying to escape.
The ancient great demon’s massive hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing these Dao artifact wills and swallowing them in one gulp. His internal power surged once again.
If others saw Lin Fan shatter four Dao artifacts in one breath, they would surely spit out blood in shock. It was too extravagant, extravagance to the point of madness.
Lin Fan’s own artifact forging skills were unparalleled in the world. With sufficient materials, he could create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts effortlessly.
Boom!
A loud explosion erupted from within the ancient great demon, like the sound of bones breaking, creaking and cracking.
The ancient great demon, originally ten thousand feet tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand feet.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan raised his hand, grasping the “Demon City” in his palm, feeling immense joy. Powerful, so incredibly powerful.
Finally, it had ascended to a Dao artifact. Although it was only a low-grade Dao artifact, the power it contained was even greater than a mid-grade Dao artifact.
“Master, I need Saint Yang Pills for cultivation.” At this moment, what shocked Lin Fan was that the ancient great demon, seated at the center of the demon city, suddenly spoke.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient great demon to possess autonomous consciousness.
Though Lin Fan was shocked, he was also ecstatic. This gave him hope, hope for the ancient great demon’s resurgence.
With a wave of his sleeve, a river of a million Saint Yang Pills formed and flew into the “Demon City.” The ancient great demon opened its mouth, swallowing the million pills, then began refining them.
There were still two million Saint Yang Pills left, which Lin Fan had to save for emergencies.
At this moment, the ancient great demon’s aura surged, astonishing Lin Fan.
Great Heaven Realm, peak.
Primordial Heaven Realm, initial stage.
Primordial Heaven Realm, middle stage.
…
“This is too insane.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient great demon, whose cultivation rose as easily as drinking water. However, upon reaching the middle stage of the Primordial Heaven Realm, the ancient great demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient to satisfy its appetite.
Although Lin Fan possessed the Phoenix Divine Tree, which continuously refined Saint Yang Pills, even the Divine Tree couldn’t keep up with the ancient great demon’s demands at this rate.
It seemed he would need to plunder more treasures in the future.
At this moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something: Despair Marquis was not in Despair City, so there must be many treasures there. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?

Terrifying, truly terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing a myriad race being from a cage, then had them go and rescue their fellow beings. Meanwhile, Lin Fan transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the four spires.
Plunder, first plunder the four great commanders.
The released myriad race beings wanted to express their gratitude to Lin Fan, but when they looked up, they saw the human senior had already flown far away. They could only bow in reverence before going to rescue their fellow beings.
First Commander’s treasure trove: three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two top-grade spiritual artifacts, five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
Second Commander’s treasure trove: poor, extremely poor, only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts, five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
Third Commander’s treasure trove: empty, so poor there wasn’t even a pair of underwear, a naked runner.
Fourth Commander’s treasure trove: five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four great commanders of the ancient race, how can they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly helpless, then flew towards Despair Marquis’s residence.
This was the last hope. If Despair Marquis didn’t have anything valuable, it would be a real disaster.
In fact, Lin Fan didn’t know that the four great commanders of Despair City had many subordinates, and the resources they consumed were immense.
Especially since the four great commanders were focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm, they were often in seclusion. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills was already quite good.
Every time they attempted to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm, the four great commanders would become penniless.
The First Commander was about to attempt another breakthrough, but Lin Fan’s appearance halted his progress, allowing these spiritual artifacts to remain. Otherwise, during a breakthrough attempt, these artifacts would have been refined into energy to aid the breakthrough.
Now, Lin Fan stood before a tightly shut stone door, carved with various patterns. However, Lin Fan paid little attention to these patterns. The only thing he wanted to know was whether the items behind this door would be worthwhile.
Lin Fan extended his hand of hope, silently praying.
Give me something good…
Roar!
The radiant glow of dawn spilled across the sky as the Demon God Kingdom emerged above the ancient demon, its head crowned with a realm of divine beasts. Various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demonic city. Among them, a wise demon god spoke golden lotuses, expounding profound and mysterious truths of the Great Dao.
The demon gods were entranced, as if immersed in a transcendent state.
Roar!
The heavens and earth trembled, golden lotuses surged from the ground, and demonic energy intertwined. Divine light enveloped the “Demon City.”
“I am the ancient…” At that moment, the ancient demon’s eyes erupted with a fierce light, its immense hand reaching skyward, cradling the Demon City in its palm.
“Great Demon.”
As these words thundered out, the ancient demon’s aura exploded with unparalleled intensity.
“So powerful, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt the surge of power, his heart shaken. This force was a hundred times stronger than before.
The imprisoned beings of the myriad races watched in stunned silence. Some were native to this realm, others were supreme overlords who had ascended from lower worlds, yet all were rendered speechless by the spectacle before them.
“Incredible, this treasure’s ascension to a Dao artifact surpasses even ordinary Dao artifacts.”
“Who is this human? What divine being is he?”
In their eyes, Lin Fan was akin to a celestial deity—his flowing hair, resolute face, sharp and domineering gaze, and hands clasped behind his back as he stared into the void left an indelible impression on the hearts of the myriad races.
“Sun-Splitting Soul Spear.”
“Diamond Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”
…
In that instant, Lin Fan hurled the four great commanders’ Dao artifacts into the void.
“Break!”
Crack!
The sound of shattering echoed as the four Dao artifacts exploded, streams of energy shooting out, their wills scattering, desperate to escape.
The ancient demon’s colossal hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing these Dao artifact wills and devouring them in one gulp, its power surging once more.
Had anyone else witnessed Lin Fan shattering four Dao artifacts in one breath, they would have spat blood in disbelief. It was an extravagance beyond comprehension.
Lin Fan’s mastery of artifact forging was unparalleled. With sufficient materials, he could effortlessly create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts without difficulty.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient demon, like the sound of bones shattering, crackling and snapping.
The ancient demon, once ten thousand feet tall, now soared to a hundred thousand feet.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, promoted to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan reached out, grasping the “Demon City” in his hand, a smile of satisfaction spreading across his face. Powerful, incredibly powerful.
Finally, it had ascended to a Dao artifact. Though only a low-grade one, its power surpassed even that of a mid-grade Dao artifact.
“Master, I need Saint Sun Pills for cultivation.” At that moment, Lin Fan was shocked to see the ancient demon, seated at the center of the Demon City, suddenly speak.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient demon to possess autonomous consciousness.
Though shocked, Lin Fan’s heart swelled with joy. This was hope—the hope of the ancient demon’s resurgence.
With a wave of his sleeve, a river of a million Saint Sun Pills condensed and flowed into the “Demon City.” The ancient demon opened its mouth, swallowing the pills whole, then began refining them.
Lin Fan still had two million Saint Sun Pills left, which he kept in reserve for emergencies.
At that moment, the ancient demon’s aura surged once more, leaving Lin Fan astounded.
Great Heaven Realm, peak.
Primordial Heaven Realm, initial stage.
Primordial Heaven Realm, mid-stage.
…
“This is too insane.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient demon’s ability to elevate its cultivation as easily as drinking water. However, upon reaching the mid-stage of the Primordial Heaven Realm, the ancient demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient to satisfy its appetite.
Though Lin Fan possessed the Divine Phoenix Tree, which continuously refined Saint Sun Pills, even it couldn’t keep up with the ancient demon’s demands at this rate.
It seemed he would need to plunder more treasures in the future.
At that moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something—Despair Marquis was not in Despair City, which meant there must be treasures there. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he leave without taking its treasures?
“Senior, save us…”
“Senior, please release us.”
The imprisoned beings of the myriad races cried out in excitement. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful, capable of single-handedly conquering Despair City, slaying the four great commanders, and having the artifact spirit devour a million ancient beings.
Terrifying, truly terrifying.
Had they not witnessed it themselves, they would never have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing the imprisoned beings and instructing them to free their comrades. Meanwhile, he transformed into a streak of light, flying toward the four spires.
Plunder, starting with the four great commanders.
The freed beings wanted to express their gratitude, but when they looked up, the human senior had already flown into the distance. They could only bow in reverence before setting off to rescue their brethren.
First Commander’s treasury: three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two supreme-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
Second Commander’s treasury: pitifully poor, only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
Third Commander’s treasury: empty, not even a pair of underwear—utterly destitute.
Fourth Commander’s treasury: five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four great commanders of the ancient race, how could they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan sighed in frustration before flying toward Despair Marquis’s residence.
This was his last hope. If Despair Marquis’s place also lacked valuable treasures, it would truly be a disaster.
Unbeknownst to Lin Fan, the four great commanders of Despair City’s ancient race had numerous subordinates, and the resources they consumed were immense.
Moreover, the four commanders had been focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm, often in seclusion. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills was already an achievement.
Each attempt to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm left the commanders penniless.
The First Commander had been on the verge of another attempt when Lin Fan’s arrival halted him, allowing these spiritual artifacts to remain. Otherwise, they would have been refined into energy for the breakthrough.
Lin Fan now stood before a tightly sealed stone door, its surface carved with intricate patterns. However, Lin Fan paid little attention to the carvings. All he wanted to know was whether the treasures behind the door would be worth his while.
Lin Fan extended his hand, silently praying.
Please, let there be something valuable…
The radiant glow of dawn spread across the sky as the realm of the demon gods appeared above the ancient demon. Various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them, a wise demon god spoke golden lotuses, expounding profound and mysterious truths of the great Dao.
The demon gods were entranced, as if immersed in a certain realm.

“Sun-Piercing Soul-Splitting Spear.”
“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”
…
In that instant, Lin Fan hurled the four great commanders’ Dao artifacts into the void.
“Break!”
Crack!
The sound of shattering echoed as the four Dao artifacts instantly broke apart. Streams of energy shot out, and the wills of the Dao artifacts scattered, trying to flee.
The ancient demon’s massive hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing these Dao artifact wills and swallowing them whole. Its power surged once more.
If others saw Lin Fan shatter four Dao artifacts in one go, they would surely spit blood in shock. This was beyond extravagant—it was downright maddening.
Lin Fan’s skill in artifact refinement was unmatched in the world. With sufficient materials, he could effortlessly create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient demon, like the sound of bones breaking, crackling and snapping.
The ancient demon, originally ten thousand feet tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand feet.

Peak of the Azure Heaven Realm.
Initial stage of the Desolate Heaven Realm.
Mid-stage of the Desolate Heaven Realm.
…
“This is too insane.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient demon, whose cultivation soared as easily as drinking water. However, upon reaching the mid-stage of the Desolate Heaven Realm, the ancient demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient.

Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing the imprisoned beings and instructing them to free their comrades. Meanwhile, he transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the four spires.
To plunder, he would start with the four great commanders.
The freed beings wanted to express their gratitude to Lin Fan, but when they looked up, they saw the human senior had already flown far away. They could only bow in reverence before setting off to rescue their fellow captives.
The first commander’s treasury: three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two supreme-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
The second commander’s treasury: poor, extremely poor, with only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
The third commander’s treasury: empty, so poor there wasn’t even a pair of underwear—a complete disgrace.
The fourth commander’s treasury: five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four great commanders of the ancient race, how can they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly exasperated, then flew towards the Despair Marquis’s residence.
This was his last hope. If the Despair Marquis’s place also lacked valuable items, it would be a total disaster.

“This is too insane.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient demon’s ability to elevate its cultivation as easily as drinking water. However, upon reaching the mid-stage of the Primordial Heaven Realm, the ancient demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient to satisfy its appetite.
Though Lin Fan possessed the Divine Phoenix Tree, which continuously refined Saint Yang Pills, even it couldn’t keep up with the ancient demon’s demands at this rate.
It seemed he would need to plunder more treasures in the future.

Terrifying, truly terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing the imprisoned myriad races and instructing them to free their brethren. Meanwhile, he transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the four spires.
Plunder, starting with the four great commanders.

The First Commander had been about to attempt another breakthrough when Lin Fan’s arrival halted him, allowing these spiritual artifacts to remain. Otherwise, they would have been refined into energy for the breakthrough.
Lin Fan now stood before a tightly shut stone door, carved with intricate patterns. However, he paid little attention to the carvings. All he wanted to know was whether the treasures behind the door would be worth it.
Lin Fan extended his hopeful hand, silently praying.
Please, let there be something valuable…
The radiant glow of dawn illuminated the sky as the realm of the demon gods appeared above the ancient demon. Various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them was a wise demon god, speaking golden lotuses, expounding the profound and mysterious truths of the great Dao.
The demon gods were entranced, as if immersed in a certain realm.
Roar!
The heavens and earth trembled, golden lotuses surged from the ground, demonic energy swept across, and divine light enveloped the “Demon City.”
“I am the ancient…” At this moment, the ancient demon’s eyes suddenly emitted a fierce light, a light of unparalleled ferocity. Its massive hand reached for the sky, holding the Demon City in its palm.
“Great Demon.”
As it roared these two words, the ancient demon’s aura erupted completely.
“So powerful, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt this power and was deeply shaken. This force was a hundred times stronger than before.
The myriad races imprisoned watched the scene before them, all struck with awe.
Some were native beings, others were supreme overlords who had ascended from lower realms, but now, faced with this spectacle, they were all rendered speechless.
“So powerful, this treasure has ascended to a Dao artifact, even stronger than ordinary Dao artifacts.”
“Who exactly is this human?”
At this moment, Lin Fan appeared to them as a god-like figure. His flowing hair, resolute face, sharp and domineering eyes, and his hands clasped behind his back, gazing into the void, left a deep impression on the hearts of the myriad races.
“Sun-Piercing Soul-Splitting Spear.”
“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”
…
In this moment, Lin Fan sent the four great commanders’ Dao artifacts flying into the void.
“Break.”
Crack!
The sound of collapse echoed as the four Dao artifacts shattered instantly, streams of energy shooting out, the wills of the Dao artifacts scattering, trying to escape.
The ancient demon’s massive hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing these Dao artifact wills and swallowing them whole, its power climbing once again.
If others saw Lin Fan shatter four Dao artifacts in one go, they would surely spit blood in shock. It was too extravagant, to the point of madness.
Lin Fan’s skill in artifact forging was unmatched in the world. With sufficient materials, he could create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts with ease.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient demon, like the sound of bones breaking, creaking and cracking.
The ancient demon, originally ten thousand feet tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand feet.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan reached out and grasped the “Demon City,” feeling a surge of joy. Powerful, so incredibly powerful.
Finally, it had ascended to a Dao artifact. Though only a low-grade one, the power it contained was even greater than a mid-grade Dao artifact.
“Master, I need Saint Yang Pills for cultivation.” At this moment, something astonishing happened. The ancient demon, seated at the center of the Demon City, suddenly spoke.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient demon to possess autonomous consciousness.
Though shocked, Lin Fan was also ecstatic. This gave him hope, hope for the ancient demon’s resurgence.
With a wave of his sleeve, a river of a million Saint Yang Pills formed, flowing into the “Demon City.” The ancient demon opened its mouth and swallowed the million pills, beginning to refine them.
There were still two million Saint Yang Pills left, which Lin Fan kept in reserve for emergencies.
At this moment, the ancient demon’s aura surged once more, leaving Lin Fan astounded.
Great Heaven Realm, peak.
Primordial Heaven Realm, initial stage.
Primordial Heaven Realm, middle stage.
…
“This is too insane.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient demon, whose cultivation rose as easily as drinking water. But upon reaching the middle stage of the Primordial Heaven Realm, the ancient demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient.
Though Lin Fan possessed the Divine Phoenix Tree, constantly refining Saint Yang Pills, even it couldn’t keep up with the ancient demon’s appetite at this rate.
It seemed he would need to plunder more treasures in the future.
At this moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something. Despair Marquis was not in Despair City, which surely held many treasures. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?
“Senior, save us…”
“Senior, please release us.”
At this moment, the myriad races imprisoned in the cages excitedly called out. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful, strong enough to single-handedly conquer Despair City, slay the four great commanders, and have the artifact spirit devour a million ancient beings.
Terrifying, truly terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing the myriad races from one cage, instructing them to free their fellow beings. Meanwhile, he transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the four spires.
Plunder, starting with the four great commanders.
The released myriad races wanted to express their gratitude to Lin Fan, but when they looked up, they saw the human senior had already flown far away. They could only bow in reverence before turning to free their comrades.
First Commander’s treasury: three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two top-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
Second Commander’s treasury: poor, extremely poor, only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
Third Commander’s treasury: empty, so poor there wasn’t even a pair of underwear, a naked runner.
Fourth Commander’s treasury: five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four great commanders of the ancient race, how can they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly helpless, then flew towards Despair Marquis’s residence.
This was the last hope. If Despair Marquis’s place also lacked valuable items, it would truly be a disaster.
In fact, Lin Fan didn’t know that the four great commanders of Despair City’s ancient race had numerous subordinates, and the resources they consumed were exceptionally vast.
Especially since the four great commanders were focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm, they were often in seclusion. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills was already quite an achievement.
Every time they attempted to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm, the four great commanders would become paupers.
The First Commander was about to attempt another breakthrough when Lin Fan appeared, causing him to halt his efforts, thus leaving behind these spiritual artifacts. Otherwise, with each attempt, these artifacts would have been refined into energy to aid the breakthrough.
Now, Lin Fan stood before a tightly shut stone door, carved with various patterns. But Lin Fan paid little attention to these patterns. The only thing he wanted to know was whether the items behind this stone door would be worthwhile.
Lin Fan extended his hand of hope, silently praying.
Give me something good…
The radiant glow of dawn spilled across the sky as the realm of the demon gods emerged above the ancient demon. Various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them, a wise demon god spoke golden lotuses, expounding profound and mysterious truths of the great Dao.
The demon gods were entranced, as if immersed in a certain realm.
Roar!
The heavens and earth trembled, golden lotuses surged from the ground, demonic energy swept across, and divine light enveloped the “Demon City.”
“I am the ancient…” At that moment, the ancient demon’s eyes suddenly erupted with a fierce light, a light of unparalleled ferocity. Its massive hand reached for the sky, holding the Demon City in its palm.
“Great Demon.”
As it roared these two words, the ancient demon’s aura fully erupted.
“So powerful, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt the surge of power and was deeply shaken. This power was a hundred times stronger than before.
The myriad races imprisoned here, witnessing this scene, were also struck with awe.
Some were native beings, others were supreme overlords who had ascended from lower realms, but now, they were all rendered speechless by what they saw.
“Too powerful. This treasure ascending to a Dao artifact is even stronger than ordinary Dao artifacts.”
“Who exactly is this human?”
At this moment, Lin Fan appeared to them like a celestial god. His flowing hair, resolute face, sharp and domineering eyes, and his hands clasped behind his back, gazing into the void, left a deep impression on the hearts of the myriad races.
“Sun-Piercing Soul-Splitting Spear.”
“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”
…
In that instant, Lin Fan hurled the four great commanders’ Dao artifacts into the void.
“Break!”
Crack!
The sound of collapse echoed as the four Dao artifacts shattered instantly. Streams of energy shot out, and the wills of the Dao artifacts scattered, trying to escape.
The ancient demon’s massive hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing these wills and swallowing them whole. Its power surged once again.
If others saw Lin Fan shatter four Dao artifacts in one go, they would surely spit blood in shock. It was extravagance to the point of madness.
Lin Fan’s skill in artifact refinement was unmatched in the world. With sufficient materials, he could effortlessly create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient demon, like the sound of bones shattering, crackling incessantly.
The ancient demon, originally ten thousand zhang tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand zhang.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan raised his hand, grasping the “Demon City,” and felt a surge of joy. Powerful, incredibly powerful.
Finally, it had ascended to a Dao artifact. Though only a low-grade one, its power surpassed even mid-grade Dao artifacts.
“Master, I need Saint Sun Pills for cultivation.” At that moment, something astonishing happened—the ancient demon, seated at the center of the Demon City, suddenly spoke.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient demon to possess autonomous consciousness.
Though shocked, Lin Fan was also ecstatic. This gave him hope—the hope of the ancient demon regaining its former glory.
With a wave of his sleeve, a river of a million Saint Sun Pills formed and flew into the “Demon City.” The ancient demon opened its mouth, swallowing the pills and began refining them.
There were still two million Saint Sun Pills left, which Lin Fan kept in reserve for emergencies.
At that moment, the ancient demon’s aura surged once again, leaving Lin Fan astounded.
Great Heaven Realm, peak.
Primordial Heaven Realm, initial stage.
Primordial Heaven Realm, middle stage.
…
“This is too absurd.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient demon, whose cultivation rose as easily as drinking water. However, upon reaching the middle stage of the Primordial Heaven Realm, the ancient demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient.
Though Lin Fan possessed the Phoenix Divine Tree, which constantly refined Saint Sun Pills, even it couldn’t satiate the ancient demon at this rate.
It seemed he would need to plunder more treasures in the future.
At that moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something—Despair Marquis was not in Despair City, which meant there must be many treasures there. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?
“Senior, save us…”
“Senior, please release us.”
At that moment, the myriad races imprisoned in the cages began to plead excitedly. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful, strong enough to single-handedly conquer Despair City, slay the four great commanders, and have the ancient demon devour a million ancient beings.
Terrifying, truly terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing the imprisoned beings and instructing them to free their fellow captives. Meanwhile, he transformed into a streak of light, flying toward the four spires.
Plunder—he would start with the four great commanders.
The freed beings wanted to express their gratitude, but when they looked up, the human senior had already flown into the distance. They could only bow in reverence before turning to rescue their comrades.
First Commander’s treasury: three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two top-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
Second Commander’s treasury: poor, utterly destitute, with only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
Third Commander’s treasury: empty, not even a pair of pants—utterly bare.
Fourth Commander’s treasury: five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four great commanders of the ancient race, how could they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly exasperated. He then flew toward Despair Marquis’s residence.
This was his last hope. If Despair Marquis’s place also lacked valuable items, it would truly be a disaster.
What Lin Fan didn’t know was that the four great commanders of Despair City had numerous subordinates, and the resources they consumed were immense.
Moreover, the four great commanders were focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm and had been in seclusion most of the time. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills was already commendable.
Every time they attempted to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm, the four great commanders would be reduced to paupers.
The First Commander had been about to attempt another breakthrough when Lin Fan appeared, halting his progress and leaving these spiritual artifacts behind. Otherwise, they would have been consumed to fuel the breakthrough.
Now, Lin Fan stood before a tightly shut stone door, carved with intricate patterns. However, Lin Fan paid little attention to the carvings. All he wanted to know was whether the treasures behind the door would be worthwhile.
Lin Fan extended his hopeful hand, silently praying.
Give me something good…
Those imprisoned beings of the Great Thousand Races watched the scene unfold before them, stunned into silence.
Some were native beings, others were peerless overlords who had ascended from lower realms, yet even they were left speechless at the sight before them.
“Absolutely incredible! This treasure ascending into a Dao artifact is even more powerful than ordinary Dao artifacts.”
“Who exactly is this human?”
At this moment, Lin Fan appeared in their eyes like a celestial deity—his flowing long hair, his firm features, his sharp and domineering gaze, and the way he stood with his hands clasped behind his back, staring into the void, all left a deep and lasting impression on the beings of the Great Thousand Races.
“Chasing-the-Sun Soul-Sundering Spear.”
“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earthen Demon Hammer.”
…
At that moment, Lin Fan directly hurled the four Dao artifacts—once belonging to the four legion commanders—into the void.
“Shatter!”
Crack!
With a deafening collapse, the four Dao artifacts shattered instantly, torrents of energy bursting forth as the wills of the Dao artifacts scattered into the air, trying to escape.
The radiant glow of dawn spilled across the sky as the realm of the demon gods emerged above the ancient demon. Within it, various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demon city. At the same time, a wise demon god spoke, golden lotuses blooming from his mouth as he expounded the profound and mysterious truths of the great Dao.
The various demon gods were entranced, as if immersed in a certain realm.
Roar!
The heavens and earth trembled, golden lotuses surged from the ground, and demonic energy filled the air. A divine light enveloped the “Demon City.”
“I am the ancient…” At that moment, the ancient demon’s eyes suddenly erupted with a fierce light, a light of unparalleled ferocity. With a giant hand that seemed to hold up the sky, he lifted the Demon City in his palm.
“Great Demon.”
As he roared these two words, the ancient demon’s aura exploded completely.
“So strong, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt this power and was deeply shaken. This force was a hundred times stronger than before.
The beings of the myriad races who had been imprisoned were also stunned by the scene before them.
Some were native beings, while others were supreme overlords who had ascended from the lower realms. Yet, at this moment, they were all rendered speechless by what they witnessed.
“Too powerful. This treasure’s ascension to a Dao artifact is even stronger than ordinary Dao artifacts.”
“Who exactly is this human?”

“Sun-Piercing Soul-Splitting Spear.”
“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”
…
In that instant, Lin Fan hurled the four Dao artifacts of the four legion commanders into the void.
“Break.”
Crack!
The sound of collapse echoed as the four Dao artifacts shattered instantly. Streams of energy shot out, and the wills of the Dao artifacts scattered, attempting to flee.
The ancient demon’s massive hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing the wills of the Dao artifacts and swallowing them in one gulp. His power surged once again.
If others were to see Lin Fan shatter four Dao artifacts in one go, they would surely spit out blood in shock. It was simply too extravagant, to the point of being overwhelming.
Lin Fan’s skill in artifact forging was unparalleled in the world. With sufficient materials, he could effortlessly create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts without difficulty.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient demon, like the sound of bones shattering, creaking and cracking.
The ancient demon, originally ten thousand feet tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand feet.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”

“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient demon to possess autonomous consciousness.
Though shocked, Lin Fan was also filled with elation. This gave him hope, hope that the ancient demon could regain its former glory.
With a wave of his sleeve, a river of a million Saint Sun Pills condensed and flew into the “Demon City.” The ancient demon opened its mouth and swallowed the million pills, then began refining them.
There were still two million Saint Sun Pills left, and Lin Fan had to save some for emergencies.
At that moment, the ancient demon’s aura surged once again, leaving Lin Fan utterly astonished.
Great Heaven Realm, peak.
Primordial Heaven Realm, initial stage.
Primordial Heaven Realm, middle stage.
…
“This is just too insane.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient demon, whose cultivation rose as easily as drinking water. However, when it reached the middle stage of the Primordial Heaven Realm, the ancient demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer enough to satisfy its appetite.
Although he possessed the Divine Phoenix Tree, which constantly refined Saint Sun Pills, even the tree couldn’t keep up with the ancient demon’s demands at this rate.
It seemed he would have to plunder more treasures in the future.
At that moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something. Despair Marquis was not in Despair City, which meant there must be plenty of treasures there. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?
“Senior, save us…”
“Senior, please release us.”
At that moment, the beings of the myriad races imprisoned in the cages excitedly called out. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful, strong enough to single-handedly conquer Despair City, slay the four legion commanders, and have the artifact spirit devour a million ancient beings.

Second Legion Commander’s treasury: poor, dirt poor, only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
Third Legion Commander’s treasury: empty, not even a pair of underwear, completely bare.
Fourth Legion Commander’s treasury: five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four legion commanders of the ancient race, how can they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly exasperated, then flew toward Despair Marquis’s residence.
This was his last hope. If Despair Marquis’s place didn’t have anything valuable, it would be a real disaster.

Especially since the four legion commanders were focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm, they were often in seclusion. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills was already quite an achievement.
Every time they attempted to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm, the four legion commanders would become penniless.
The First Legion Commander had originally planned to attempt another breakthrough, but Lin Fan’s appearance had halted his progress, allowing these spiritual artifacts to remain. Otherwise, they would have been used for refining, transformed into energy to attempt the breakthrough.
Lin Fan now stood before a tightly shut stone door, carved with various patterns. However, Lin Fan paid little attention to the carvings. The only thing he wanted to know was whether the treasures behind the door would be worth it.
Lin Fan extended his hand of hope, silently praying.
Give me something good…
If anyone else saw Lin Fan casually shattering four Dao artifacts at once, they would likely spit out a mouthful of old blood in shock—it was simply too extravagant, too outrageous to comprehend.
The radiant glow of dawn overflowed, and the realm of the demon gods appeared above the ancient great demon. Various demon gods rode the wind, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them, a wise demon god spoke golden lotuses, expounding profound and mysterious truths of the great Dao.
All kinds of demon gods were immersed in it, as if they had entered a certain realm.
Roar!
The heavens and earth shook, golden lotuses surged from the ground, demonic energy filled the air, and divine light enveloped the “demon city.”
“I am the ancient…” At this moment, the ancient great demon’s eyes suddenly emitted a brilliant light, a light of unparalleled ferocity. With a giant hand reaching to the sky, it held the demon city in its palm.
“Great demon.”
As it roared these two words, the ancient great demon’s aura completely erupted.
“So strong, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt this power and was deeply shocked. This power was a hundred times stronger than before.

Lin Fan’s own artifact forging skills were unmatched in the world. With sufficient materials, he could create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts effortlessly.
Boom!
A loud explosion erupted from within the ancient great demon, like the sound of bones breaking, crackling incessantly.
The ancient great demon, originally ten thousand zhang tall, suddenly grew to a hundred thousand zhang.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a lower-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan raised his hand, grasping the “demon city,” and felt a surge of joy. So strong, incredibly strong.
Finally, it had ascended to a Dao artifact. Although it was only a lower-grade Dao artifact, the power it contained was even greater than a mid-grade Dao artifact.
“Master, I need Saint Yang Pills for cultivation.” At this moment, something astonishing happened. The ancient great demon, seated at the center of the demon city, suddenly spoke.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient great demon to possess autonomous consciousness.
Though shocked, Lin Fan was also ecstatic. This gave him hope, hope for the ancient great demon to regain its former glory.
With a wave of his sleeve, a river of a million Saint Yang Pills flew into the “demon city.” The ancient great demon opened its mouth and swallowed the million pills, then began refining them.
There were still two million Saint Yang Pills left, which Lin Fan kept in reserve for emergencies.
At this moment, the ancient great demon’s aura surged, astonishing Lin Fan.
Great Heaven Realm Perfection.
Primordial Heaven Realm Initial Stage.
Primordial Heaven Realm Middle Stage.
…
“This is too insane.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient great demon, whose cultivation increased as easily as drinking water. However, upon reaching the middle stage of the Primordial Heaven Realm, the ancient great demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient to satisfy its appetite.
Although Lin Fan possessed the Phoenix Divine Tree, which continuously refined Saint Yang Pills, even the divine tree couldn’t keep up with the ancient great demon’s needs at this rate.
It seemed he would need to plunder more treasures in the future.
At this moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something. Despair Marquis was not in Despair City, which meant there must be many treasures there. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?

Terrifying, truly terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing the myriad races from one cage, instructing them to free their fellow beings. Meanwhile, Lin Fan transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the four spires.

“Damn, as the four great commanders of the ancient race, how can they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly helpless, then flew towards Despair Marquis’s residence.
This was the last hope. If Despair Marquis’s place also had nothing valuable, it would be a real disaster.
In fact, Lin Fan didn’t know that the four great commanders of Despair City had many subordinates, and the resources they consumed were exceptionally vast.
Especially since the four great commanders were focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm, they were often in seclusion. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills was already quite good.
Every time they attempted to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm, the four great commanders would become penniless.
The First Commander was about to attempt another breakthrough to the Divine Heaven Realm, but Lin Fan’s appearance halted his actions, allowing these spiritual artifacts to remain. Otherwise, they would have been refined into power for the breakthrough.
At this moment, Lin Fan stood before a tightly shut stone door, carved with various patterns. However, Lin Fan paid little attention to these patterns. The only thing he wanted to know was whether the things behind this stone door would be worthwhile.
Lin Fan extended his hopeful hand, silently praying.
Please, give me something good…
Boom!
The radiant glow of dawn illuminated the sky as the realm of the demon gods appeared above the ancient demon. Various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them was a wise demon god, speaking golden lotuses, expounding profound and mysterious truths of the great Dao.
The demon gods were entranced, as if immersed in a certain realm.
Roar!
The heavens and earth trembled, golden lotuses surged from the ground, demonic energy filled the air, and divine light enveloped the “demon city.”
“I am the ancient…” At that moment, the ancient demon’s eyes suddenly emitted a fierce light, a light of unparalleled ferocity. Its massive hand reached for the sky, holding the demon city in its palm.
“Great Demon.”
As it roared these two words, the ancient demon’s aura fully erupted.
“So powerful, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt this power and was deeply shaken. This force was a hundred times stronger than before.
The myriad races imprisoned here were also stunned by the scene before them.
Some were native beings, others were supreme overlords who had ascended from lower realms, but now, they were all rendered speechless by what they saw.
“So powerful, this treasure has ascended to a Dao artifact, even stronger than ordinary Dao artifacts.”
“Who exactly is this human?”
At this moment, Lin Fan appeared to them like a celestial god. His flowing hair, resolute face, sharp and domineering eyes, and his hands behind his back, gazing into the void, left a deep impression on the hearts of the myriad races.
“Sun-Piercing Soul-Splitting Spear.”
“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”
…
In that instant, Lin Fan hurled the four great commanders’ Dao artifacts into the void.
“Break.”
Crack!
The sound of collapse echoed as the four Dao artifacts shattered instantly. Streams of energy shot out, and the wills of the Dao artifacts scattered, trying to escape.
The ancient demon’s massive hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing the wills of the Dao artifacts and swallowing them whole. Its power surged once again.
If others saw Lin Fan shatter four Dao artifacts in one go, they would surely spit blood in shock. It was an extravagance that bordered on madness.
Lin Fan’s skill in artifact refinement was unparalleled in the world. With sufficient materials, he could effortlessly create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient demon, like the sound of bones breaking, creaking and cracking.
The ancient demon, originally ten thousand zhang tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand zhang.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan reached out and grasped the “demon city,” feeling a surge of joy. It was powerful, incredibly powerful.
Finally, it had ascended to a Dao artifact. Though only a low-grade, its power surpassed even mid-grade Dao artifacts.
“Master, I need Saint Sun Pills for cultivation.” At that moment, something astonishing happened. The ancient demon, seated at the center of the demon city, suddenly spoke.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient demon to possess autonomous consciousness.
Though shocked, Lin Fan was also ecstatic. This gave him hope, hope for the ancient demon’s resurgence.
With a wave of his sleeve, a river of a million Saint Sun Pills flowed into the “demon city.” The ancient demon opened its mouth and swallowed the pills, beginning to refine them.
There were still two million Saint Sun Pills left, which Lin Fan kept in reserve for emergencies.
At that moment, the ancient demon’s aura surged once more, leaving Lin Fan in awe.
Great Heaven Realm, peak.
Primordial Heaven Realm, initial stage.
Primordial Heaven Realm, mid-stage.
…
“This is too insane.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient demon’s ability to elevate its cultivation as easily as drinking water. However, upon reaching the mid-stage of the Primordial Heaven Realm, the ancient demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient.
Though Lin Fan possessed the Phoenix Divine Tree, constantly refining Saint Sun Pills, even it couldn’t keep up with the ancient demon’s appetite.
It seemed he would need to plunder more treasures in the future.
At that moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something. Despair Marquis was not in Despair City, which surely held many treasures. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?
“Senior, save us…”
“Senior, please release us.”
The imprisoned myriad races called out in excitement. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful, strong enough to single-handedly conquer Despair City, slay the four great commanders, and have the artifact spirit devour a million ancient beings.
It was terrifying, truly terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing a group of imprisoned beings, instructing them to free their comrades. Meanwhile, he transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the four spires.
Plunder, starting with the four great commanders.
The freed beings wanted to express their gratitude, but when they looked up, the human senior had already flown into the distance. They could only bow in reverence before turning to rescue their fellow beings.
First Commander’s treasury: three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two supreme-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
Second Commander’s treasury: poor, dirt poor, only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
Third Commander’s treasury: empty, not even a pair of underwear, a complete pauper.
Fourth Commander’s treasury: five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four great commanders of the ancient race, how could they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly exasperated. He then flew towards Despair Marquis’s residence.
This was his last hope. If Despair Marquis’s place also lacked valuable items, it would be a complete disaster.
What Lin Fan didn’t know was that the four great commanders of Despair City had numerous subordinates and consumed vast resources.
Especially since the four great commanders were focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm, they were often in seclusion. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills was already quite an achievement.
Every attempt to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm left the four great commanders penniless.
The First Commander had been about to attempt another breakthrough when Lin Fan appeared, halting his progress and leaving behind these spiritual artifacts. Otherwise, they would have been refined into energy for the breakthrough.
Lin Fan now stood before a tightly shut stone door, adorned with intricate carvings. However, he paid little attention to the patterns. All he wanted to know was whether the items behind the door would be worthwhile.
Lin Fan extended his hopeful hand, silently praying.
Please, let it be something good…
The radiant glow of dawn illuminated the land as the realm of the demon gods appeared above the ancient demon. Various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them was a wise demon god, whose words blossomed like golden lotuses, expounding profound and mysterious truths of the Dao.
The demon gods were entranced, as if immersed in a transcendent state.
Roar!
The heavens and earth trembled, golden lotuses surged from the ground, and demonic energy filled the air. A divine light enveloped the “Demon City.”
“I am the ancient…” At that moment, the ancient demon’s eyes suddenly emitted a fierce light, a light of unparalleled ferocity. With a giant hand that seemed to hold up the heavens, it lifted the Demon City in its palm.
“Great Demon.”
As it roared these two words, the ancient demon’s aura exploded with full force.
“So powerful, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt the surge of power and was deeply shaken. This power was a hundred times stronger than before.
The imprisoned beings of the myriad races, witnessing this scene, were also struck with awe.
Some were native beings, while others were supreme overlords who had ascended from lower realms. Yet, at this moment, they were all rendered speechless by what they saw.
“This is too powerful. For this treasure to ascend to a Dao artifact, it surpasses even ordinary Dao artifacts.”
“Who exactly is this human?”
In their eyes, Lin Fan was like a deity—his flowing hair, resolute face, sharp and domineering gaze, and his hands clasped behind his back as he stared into the void left an indelible impression on the hearts of the myriad races.
“Sun-Piercing Soul-Splitting Spear.”
“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”
…
At this moment, Lin Fan hurled the four Dao artifacts of the four legion commanders into the void.
“Break.”
Crack!
The sound of shattering echoed as the four Dao artifacts instantly broke apart. Streams of energy shot out, and the wills of the Dao artifacts scattered, attempting to flee.
The ancient demon’s massive hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing the wills of the Dao artifacts and swallowing them whole. Its power surged once more.
If others were to witness Lin Fan shattering four Dao artifacts in one breath, they would surely spit blood in shock. It was an extravagance that bordered on madness.
Lin Fan’s skill in artifact forging was unparalleled in the world. With sufficient materials, he could effortlessly create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts without difficulty.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient demon, like the sound of bones shattering, crackling and popping.
The ancient demon, originally ten thousand zhang tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand zhang.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan raised his hand, grasping the “Demon City” in his palm, a smile of satisfaction on his face. Powerful, incredibly powerful.
It had finally ascended to a Dao artifact. Though only a low-grade Dao artifact, the power it contained surpassed even that of a mid-grade Dao artifact.
“Master, I need Saint Yang Pills for cultivation.” At this moment, something astonishing happened—the ancient demon, seated at the center of the Demon City, suddenly spoke.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient demon to possess autonomous consciousness.
Though shocked, Lin Fan was also filled with elation. This gave him hope—the hope of the ancient demon regaining its former glory.
With a wave of his sleeve, a river of a million Saint Yang Pills formed, flowing into the “Demon City.” The ancient demon opened its mouth, swallowing the million pills, and began refining them.
There were still two million Saint Yang Pills left, which Lin Fan decided to keep in reserve for emergencies.
At this moment, the ancient demon’s aura surged once more, leaving Lin Fan utterly astonished.
Peak of the Azure Heaven Realm.
Initial stage of the Desolate Heaven Realm.
Mid-stage of the Desolate Heaven Realm.
…
“This is too insane.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient demon, whose cultivation soared as easily as drinking water. However, upon reaching the mid-stage of the Desolate Heaven Realm, the ancient demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient to satisfy its appetite.
Though Lin Fan possessed the Phoenix Divine Tree, which continuously refined Saint Yang Pills, even the divine tree couldn’t keep up with the ancient demon’s demands at this rate.
It seemed he would need to plunder more treasures in the future.
At this moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something—the Lord of Despair was not in Despair City, which likely held many treasures. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?
“Senior, save us…”
“Senior, please release us.”
At this moment, the imprisoned beings of the myriad races eagerly called out. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful, strong enough to single-handedly conquer Despair City, slay the four legion commanders, and have the artifact spirit devour a million ancient beings.
Terrifying, truly terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing the beings from one of the cages and instructing them to free their fellow captives. Meanwhile, Lin Fan transformed into a streak of light, flying toward the four spires.
Plunder—he would start with the four legion commanders.
The freed beings wanted to express their gratitude to Lin Fan, but when they looked up, they saw that the human senior had already flown into the distance. They could only bow in reverence before setting off to rescue their fellow captives.
First Legion Commander’s treasury: three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two supreme-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
Second Legion Commander’s treasury: poor, extremely poor—only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
Third Legion Commander’s treasury: empty, not even a pair of underwear—utterly destitute.
Fourth Legion Commander’s treasury: five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four legion commanders of the ancient race, how could they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly exasperated. He then flew toward the residence of the Lord of Despair.
This was his last hope. If the Lord of Despair’s place also lacked valuable items, it would truly be a disaster.
What Lin Fan didn’t know was that the four legion commanders of Despair City had numerous subordinates, and the resources they consumed were immense.
Especially since the four legion commanders were focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm, they spent most of their time in seclusion. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills was already quite an achievement.
Every time they attempted to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm, the four legion commanders would be reduced to paupers.
The First Legion Commander had been preparing to attempt another breakthrough when Lin Fan’s arrival interrupted him, allowing these spiritual artifacts to remain. Otherwise, they would have been refined into energy for the breakthrough.
Lin Fan now stood before a tightly shut stone door, carved with intricate patterns. However, Lin Fan paid little attention to the carvings. The only thing on his mind was whether the items behind the door would be worth his while.
Lin Fan extended his hand, silently praying.
Please, let there be something valuable…
The radiant glow of dawn overflowed, and the realm of the demon gods appeared above the ancient great demon. Within it, various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them, a wise demon god spoke golden lotuses, expounding profound and mysterious truths of the great Dao.
The various demon gods were entranced, as if immersed in a certain realm.
Roar!
The heavens and earth trembled, golden lotuses surged from the ground, demonic energy crisscrossed, and divine light enveloped the “Demon City.”
“I am the ancient…” At this moment, the ancient great demon’s eyes suddenly erupted with a brilliant light, a light of unparalleled ferocity. With a giant hand that seemed to hold up the sky, it lifted the Demon City in its palm.
“Great Demon.”
As it roared these two words, the ancient great demon’s aura completely erupted.
“So strong, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt this power and was deeply shaken. This power was a hundred times stronger than before.
The myriad races imprisoned here, witnessing this scene, were also struck with awe.
Some were native beings, others were supreme overlords who had ascended from lower realms, but now, faced with this situation, they were all rendered speechless.
“So powerful, this treasure ascending to a Dao artifact is even stronger than ordinary Dao artifacts.”
“Who exactly is this human?”
At this moment, Lin Fan appeared to them like a celestial god—his flowing hair, resolute face, sharp and domineering eyes, and his hands clasped behind his back, gazing into the void—all left a deep impression on the hearts of the myriad races.
“Sun-Chasing Soul-Splitting Spear.”
“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”
…
In this moment, Lin Fan sent the four great commanders’ Dao artifacts flying into the void.
“Break.”
Crack!
The sound of collapse echoed as the four Dao artifacts shattered instantly, streams of energy shooting out, the wills of the Dao artifacts scattering, trying to escape.
The ancient great demon’s giant hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing these Dao artifact wills and swallowing them in one gulp. Its internal power surged once more.
If others saw Lin Fan shatter four Dao artifacts in one breath, they would surely spit out blood in shock. It was too extravagant, extravagance to the point of madness.
Lin Fan’s own skill in artifact forging was unmatched in the world. With sufficient materials, human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts could be created effortlessly.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient great demon, like the sound of bones breaking, creaking and cracking.
The ancient great demon, originally ten thousand zhang tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand zhang.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan raised his hand, grasping the “Demon City,” and felt a surge of joy. Powerful, incredibly powerful.
Finally, it had ascended to a Dao artifact. Although only a low-grade one, the power it contained was even greater than a mid-grade Dao artifact.
“Master, I need Saint Yang Pills for cultivation.” At this moment, what shocked Lin Fan was the ancient great demon, seated at the center of the Demon City, suddenly speaking.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient great demon to possess autonomous consciousness.
Though internally shocked, Lin Fan was ecstatic. This gave him hope, hope for the ancient great demon’s resurgence.
With a wave of his sleeve, a million Saint Yang Pills condensed into a river of pills, flying into the “Demon City.” The ancient great demon opened its mouth, swallowing the million pills, and began refining them.
There were still two million Saint Yang Pills left, which Lin Fan decided to keep as a precaution.
At this moment, the ancient great demon’s aura surged once more, leaving Lin Fan utterly astonished.
Great Heaven Realm, peak.
Primordial Heaven Realm, initial stage.
Primordial Heaven Realm, middle stage.
…
“This is too insane.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient great demon, whose cultivation rose as easily as drinking water. However, upon reaching the middle stage of the Primordial Heaven Realm, the ancient great demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient to satisfy its appetite.
Though he possessed the Divine Phoenix Tree, which continuously refined Saint Yang Pills, at this rate, even the Divine Phoenix Tree couldn’t satiate the ancient great demon.
It seemed he would need to plunder more treasures in the future.
At this moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something—Despair Marquis was not in Despair City, which surely held many treasures. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?
“Senior, save us…”
“Senior, please release us.”
At this moment, the myriad races imprisoned in the cages excitedly called out. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful, strong enough to single-handedly conquer Despair City, slay the four great commanders, and have the artifact spirit devour a million ancient race members.
Terrifying, truly terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing the myriad races from one cage, instructing them to free their fellow beings. Meanwhile, he transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the four spires.
Plunder, starting with the four great commanders.
The released myriad races wanted to express their gratitude to Lin Fan, but when they looked up, they saw the human senior had already flown far away. They could only bow in reverence before turning to free their comrades.
First Commander’s treasure trove: three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two supreme-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
Second Commander’s treasure trove: poor, utterly destitute, only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
Third Commander’s treasure trove: empty, not even a pair of underwear, a complete pauper.
Fourth Commander’s treasure trove: five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four great commanders of the ancient race, how can they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly helpless, then flew towards Despair Marquis’s residence.
This was the last hope. If Despair Marquis’s place also had nothing valuable, it would truly be a disaster.
What Lin Fan didn’t know was that the four great commanders of Despair City’s ancient race had numerous subordinates, and the resources they consumed were immense.
Especially since the four great commanders were focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm, they were often in seclusion. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills was already quite an achievement.
Every time they attempted to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm, the four great commanders would become penniless.
The First Commander was about to attempt another breakthrough when Lin Fan appeared, causing him to halt his efforts, thus leaving behind these spiritual artifacts. Otherwise, they would have been used for refining, transformed into power to attempt the breakthrough.
Lin Fan now stood before a tightly shut stone door, carved with various patterns. However, Lin Fan paid little attention to these patterns. The only thing he wanted to know was whether the contents behind the stone door would be worthwhile.
Lin Fan extended his hopeful hand, silently praying.
Give me something good…
The radiant glow of dawn spread across the sky as the Demon God Kingdom appeared above the ancient demon. Various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them, a wise demon god spoke golden lotuses, expounding profound and mysterious truths of the Great Dao.
All the demon gods were entranced, as if immersed in a certain realm.
Roar!
The heavens and earth trembled, golden lotuses surged from the ground, demonic energy swept across, and divine light enveloped the “Demon City.”

However, upon reaching the middle stage of the Primordial Heaven Realm, the ancient demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient to satisfy its appetite.
Though Lin Fan possessed the Divine Phoenix Tree, which continuously refined Saint Yang Pills, even the tree couldn’t keep up with the ancient demon’s demands at this rate.

First Commander’s treasure trove: three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two top-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
Second Commander’s treasure trove: poor, extremely poor, only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
Third Commander’s treasure trove: empty, not even a pair of underwear, a complete pauper.

The radiant glow of dawn spilled across the sky as the realm of the demon gods emerged above the ancient demon. Within it, various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demon city.

The heavens and earth trembled, golden lotuses surged from the ground, and demonic energy swept across the land. A divine light enveloped the “Demon City.”

A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient demon, like the sound of bones breaking, crackling and snapping.
The ancient demon, originally ten thousand zhang tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand zhang.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan raised his hand, grasping the “Demon City” in his palm, feeling a surge of joy. Powerful, so incredibly powerful.

Terrifying, truly terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing one of the imprisoned races and instructing them to free their fellow captives. Meanwhile, he transformed into a streak of light, flying toward the four spires.
Plunder—he would start with the four great commanders.
The freed races wanted to express their gratitude to Lin Fan, but when they looked up, they saw that the human senior had already flown into the distance. They could only bow in reverence before setting off to rescue their comrades.
The first commander’s treasury contained three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two supreme-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
The second commander’s treasury was pitifully poor, with only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
The third commander’s treasury was completely empty, not even a pair of underwear to be found—utterly destitute.
The fourth commander’s treasury held five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four great commanders of the ancient race, how could they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly exasperated. He then flew toward the Despair Marquis’ residence.
This was his last hope. If the Despair Marquis’ place also lacked valuable treasures, it would be a true disaster.

Lin Fan now stood before a tightly shut stone door, its surface carved with intricate patterns. However, Lin Fan paid little attention to the carvings. All he wanted to know was whether the treasures behind the door would be worth it.
Lin Fan extended his hand, silently praying.
Please, let there be something good…
Finally, it had ascended into a Dao artifact. Though only a low-grade Dao artifact, its power surpassed even mid-grade Dao artifacts.

“So powerful, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt this power and was deeply shaken. This force was a hundred times stronger than before.
The myriad races imprisoned here were also stunned by the scene before them.
Some were native beings, while others were supreme overlords who had ascended from lower realms. Yet, at this moment, they were all rendered speechless by what they saw.
“Too powerful. This treasure’s ascension to a Dao artifact is even stronger than ordinary Dao artifacts.”
“Who exactly is this human?”
At this moment, Lin Fan appeared to them like a celestial god. His flowing hair, resolute face, sharp and domineering eyes, and his hands clasped behind his back as he gazed into the void left a deep impression on the hearts of the myriad races.

A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient great demon, like the sound of bones breaking, crackling incessantly.

At that moment, the ancient great demon’s aura surged once more, leaving Lin Fan utterly astonished.
Great Heaven Realm, peak.
Primordial Heaven Realm, initial stage.
Primordial Heaven Realm, middle stage.
…
“This is just too absurd.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient great demon, whose cultivation rose as easily as drinking water. However, upon reaching the middle stage of the Primordial Heaven Realm, the ancient great demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient to satisfy its appetite.
Although Lin Fan possessed the Divine Phoenix Tree, which constantly refined Saint Yang Pills, even it couldn’t keep up with the ancient great demon’s demands at this rate.
It seemed he would need to plunder more treasures in the future.
At that moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something. Despair Marquis was not in Despair City, which meant there must be many treasures there. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?
“Senior, save us…”
“Senior, please release us.”
At this moment, the myriad races imprisoned in the cages excitedly called out. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful, strong enough to single-handedly conquer Despair City, slay the four great commanders, and have the ancient great demon devour a million ancient race beings.
Terrifying, truly terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing one of the imprisoned myriad races and instructing them to free their fellow beings. Meanwhile, Lin Fan transformed into a streak of light, flying toward the four spires.
Plunder, starting with the four great commanders.
The released myriad races wanted to express their gratitude to Lin Fan, but when they looked up, they saw the human senior had already flown into the distance. They could only bow in reverence before turning to free their comrades.
First Commander’s treasure trove: three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two top-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
Second Commander’s treasure trove: poor, utterly destitute, with only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
Third Commander’s treasure trove: completely empty, not even a pair of underwear, a true pauper.
Fourth Commander’s treasure trove: five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four great commanders of the ancient race, how could they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly exasperated, then flew toward Despair Marquis’s residence.
This was his last hope. If Despair Marquis’s place also lacked valuable treasures, it would truly be a disaster.
What Lin Fan didn’t know was that the four great commanders of Despair City’s ancient race had numerous subordinates, and the resources they consumed were immense.
Especially since the four great commanders were focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm, they were often in seclusion. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills was already quite an achievement.
Every time they attempted to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm, the four great commanders would become paupers.
The First Commander had been about to attempt another breakthrough when Lin Fan’s appearance halted him, allowing these spiritual artifacts to remain. Otherwise, they would have been refined into energy for the breakthrough.
Lin Fan now stood before a tightly shut stone door, carved with intricate patterns. However, Lin Fan paid little attention to the carvings. All he wanted to know was whether the treasures behind the door would be worth it.
Lin Fan extended his hopeful hand, silently praying.
Please, let there be something good…
“This… this…”
The radiant glow of dawn spread across the sky as the realm of the demon gods emerged above the ancient demon. Within it, various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them was a wise demon god, who spoke with golden lotuses, expounding the profound and mysterious principles of the great Dao.
All the demon gods were entranced, as if immersed in a certain realm.
Roar!
The heavens and earth trembled, golden lotuses surged from the ground, and demonic energy swept across the land. Divine light of unparalleled brilliance enveloped the “Demon City.”
“I am the ancient…” At that moment, the ancient demon’s eyes suddenly erupted with a fierce light, a light of unparalleled ferocity. With a giant hand that seemed to hold up the sky, it lifted the Demon City in its palm.
“Great Demon.”
As it roared these two words, the ancient demon’s aura exploded completely.
“So powerful, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt this immense power and was deeply shaken. This force was a hundred times stronger than before.
The myriad races imprisoned here were also stunned by the scene before them.
Some were native beings, while others were supreme overlords who had ascended from lower realms. Yet, at this moment, all were rendered speechless by what they witnessed.
“Incredibly powerful. This treasure’s ascension to a Dao artifact surpasses even ordinary Dao artifacts.”
“Who exactly is this human?”
At this moment, Lin Fan appeared to them like a celestial god. His flowing hair, resolute face, sharp and domineering eyes, and his hands clasped behind his back as he gazed into the void left a profound impression on the hearts of the myriad races.
“Sun-Piercing Soul-Splitting Spear.”
“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”
…
In that instant, Lin Fan hurled the four Dao artifacts of the four legion commanders into the void.
“Break.”
Crack!
The sound of collapse echoed as the four Dao artifacts shattered instantly. Streams of energy shot out, and the wills of the Dao artifacts scattered, attempting to flee.
The ancient demon’s massive hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing these Dao artifact wills and swallowing them whole. Its power surged once again.
If others were to witness Lin Fan shattering four Dao artifacts in one go, they would surely spit blood in shock. Such extravagance was utterly overwhelming.
Lin Fan’s skill in artifact forging was unmatched in the world. With sufficient materials, he could effortlessly create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts without difficulty.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient demon’s body, like the sound of bones shattering, crackling incessantly.
The ancient demon, originally ten thousand feet tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand feet.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan raised his hand, grasping the “Demon City,” and felt a surge of joy. Powerful, incredibly powerful.
Finally, it had ascended to a Dao artifact. Though only a low-grade one, the power it contained surpassed even mid-grade Dao artifacts.
“Master, I need Saint Yang Pills for cultivation.” At that moment, something astonishing happened. The ancient demon, seated at the center of the Demon City, suddenly spoke.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient demon to possess autonomous consciousness.
Though shocked, Lin Fan was also ecstatic. This gave him hope, the hope of the ancient demon’s resurgence.
With a wave of his sleeve, a river of a million Saint Yang Pills condensed and flew into the “Demon City.” The ancient demon opened its mouth and swallowed the million pills, beginning to refine them.
Lin Fan still had two million Saint Yang Pills left, which he kept in reserve for emergencies.
At that moment, the ancient demon’s aura surged once more, leaving Lin Fan utterly astonished.
Great Heaven Realm, peak.
Primordial Heaven Realm, initial stage.
Primordial Heaven Realm, mid-stage.
…
“This is too insane.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient demon, whose cultivation soared as easily as drinking water. However, upon reaching the mid-stage of the Primordial Heaven Realm, the ancient demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient to satisfy its hunger.
Though Lin Fan possessed the Divine Phoenix Tree, which continuously refined Saint Yang Pills, even it couldn’t keep up with the ancient demon’s demands at this rate.
It seemed he would need to plunder more treasures in the future.
At that moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something. Since the Despair Marquis wasn’t in Despair City, there must be many treasures there. Having already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?
“Senior, save us…”
“Senior, please release us.”
At that moment, the myriad races imprisoned in the cages began to plead excitedly. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful, strong enough to single-handedly conquer Despair City, slay the four legion commanders, and have the artifact spirit devour a million ancient beings.
Terrifying, utterly terrifying.
If they hadn’t witnessed it themselves, they would never have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing one of the imprisoned races and instructing them to free their comrades. Meanwhile, he transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the four spires.
Plunder, starting with the four legion commanders.
The freed races wanted to express their gratitude to Lin Fan, but when they looked up, they saw that the human senior had already flown into the distance. They could only bow in reverence before setting off to rescue their fellow beings.
The first legion commander’s treasury contained three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two supreme-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
The second legion commander’s treasury was pitifully poor, with only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
The third legion commander’s treasury was empty, not even a pair of underwear to be found—utterly destitute.
The fourth legion commander’s treasury held five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four legion commanders of the ancient race, how could they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly exasperated. He then flew towards the residence of the Despair Marquis.
This was his last hope. If the Despair Marquis’s place also lacked valuable items, it would truly be a disaster.
What Lin Fan didn’t know was that the four legion commanders of Despair City had numerous subordinates, and the resources they consumed were immense.
Especially since the four legion commanders were focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm, they often remained in seclusion. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills was already quite an achievement.
Every time they attempted to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm, the four legion commanders would be reduced to paupers.
The first legion commander had been about to attempt another breakthrough when Lin Fan’s appearance halted him, allowing these spiritual artifacts to remain. Otherwise, they would have been used for refinement, transformed into power for the breakthrough.
Lin Fan now stood before a tightly shut stone door, carved with intricate patterns. However, he paid little attention to the carvings. All he wanted to know was whether the items behind the door would be worth his while.
Lin Fan extended his hand of hope, silently praying.
Give me something good…
The radiant glow of dawn overflowed, and the realm of the demon gods appeared above the ancient great demon. Various demon gods rode the wind, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them, a wise demon god spoke golden lotuses, expounding the profound and mysterious principles of the great Dao.
All kinds of demon gods were entranced, as if immersed in a certain realm.
Roar!
The heavens and earth shook, golden lotuses surged from the ground, demonic energy swept across, and divine light enveloped the “Demon City.”
“I am the ancient…” At this moment, the ancient great demon’s eyes suddenly emitted a brilliant light, a light of unparalleled ferocity. With a giant hand that seemed to hold up the sky, it lifted the demon city in its palm.

“So powerful, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt this power and was deeply shaken. This force was a hundred times stronger than before.
The myriad races imprisoned here, witnessing this scene, were also struck with awe.
Some were native beings, others were supreme overlords who had ascended from lower realms, but now, faced with this spectacle, they were all rendered speechless.
“Too powerful, this treasure ascending to a Dao artifact is even mightier than ordinary Dao artifacts.”
“Who exactly is this human?”
At this moment, Lin Fan appeared to them like a celestial deity. His flowing hair, resolute face, sharp and domineering eyes, and his hands clasped behind his back, gazing into the void, left an indelible impression on the hearts of the myriad races.
“Sun-Piercing Soul-Splitting Spear.”
“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”
…
At this moment, Lin Fan hurled the four great commanders’ Dao artifacts into the void.
“Break.”
Crack!
The sound of collapse echoed as the four Dao artifacts shattered instantly. Streams of energy shot out, and the wills of the Dao artifacts scattered, attempting to flee.
The ancient great demon’s massive hand, covering the sky, forcibly seized these Dao artifact wills and swallowed them whole, its power surging once more.
If others saw Lin Fan shatter four Dao artifacts in one breath, they would surely spit blood in shock. It was too extravagant, to the point of being overwhelming.
Lin Fan’s own skill in artifact forging was unparalleled in the world. With sufficient materials, he could create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts effortlessly.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient great demon, like the sound of bones breaking, creaking and cracking.
The ancient great demon, originally ten thousand zhang tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand zhang.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan raised his hand, grasping the “Demon City,” and felt a surge of joy. Powerful, incredibly powerful.
Finally, it had ascended to a Dao artifact. Although only a low-grade one, the power it contained surpassed even mid-grade Dao artifacts.
“Master, I need Saint Sun Pills for cultivation.” At this moment, something astonishing happened. The ancient great demon, seated at the center of the demon city, suddenly spoke.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient great demon to possess autonomous consciousness.
Though shocked, Lin Fan was also ecstatic. This gave him hope, hope for the ancient great demon’s resurgence.

There were still two million Saint Sun Pills left, which Lin Fan kept in reserve for emergencies.
At this moment, the ancient great demon’s aura surged once more, astonishing Lin Fan.
Great Heaven Realm, peak.
Primordial Heaven Realm, initial stage.
Primordial Heaven Realm, middle stage.
…
“This is too insane.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient great demon, whose cultivation soared as easily as drinking water. However, upon reaching the middle stage of the Primordial Heaven Realm, the ancient great demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient.
Though he possessed the Phoenix Divine Tree, constantly refining Saint Sun Pills, even it couldn’t satisfy the ancient great demon at this rate.
It seemed he would need to plunder more treasures in the future.
At this moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something. Despair Marquis was not in Despair City, which meant there must be many treasures there. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?

Plunder, starting with the four great commanders.
The released myriad races wanted to express their gratitude to Lin Fan, but when they looked up, they saw the human senior had already flown into the distance. They could only bow in reverence before setting off to rescue their kin.
First Commander’s treasury: three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two top-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
Second Commander’s treasury: poor, dirt poor, only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
Third Commander’s treasury: empty, not even a pair of underwear, a complete pauper.
Fourth Commander’s treasury: five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four great commanders of the ancient race, how can they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly exasperated, then flew towards Despair Marquis’s residence.
This was the last hope. If there were no valuable treasures there, it would be a real disaster.
In fact, Lin Fan didn’t know that the four great commanders of Despair City had numerous subordinates, and the resources they consumed were immense.
Especially since the four great commanders were focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm, they were often in seclusion. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills was already commendable.
Every time they attempted to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm, the four great commanders would become destitute.
The First Commander was about to attempt another breakthrough when Lin Fan appeared, halting his progress and leaving these spiritual artifacts behind. Otherwise, they would have been used for refining, converted into power for the breakthrough.
Now, Lin Fan stood before a tightly shut stone door, carved with various patterns. However, Lin Fan paid little attention to these designs. All he wanted to know was whether the treasures behind this door would be worthwhile.
Lin Fan extended his hopeful hand, silently praying.
Please, be worthwhile…
The radiant glow of dawn spilled across the sky as the realm of the demon gods emerged above the ancient demon. Within it, various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demon city.

At this moment, Lin Fan appeared to them like a celestial god—his flowing hair, resolute face, sharp and domineering eyes, and his hands clasped behind his back as he gazed into the void, leaving an indelible impression on the hearts of the myriad races.
“Sun-Splitting Soul-Shattering Spear.”
“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”
…
In that instant, Lin Fan hurled the four Dao artifacts of the four legion commanders into the void.
“Break!”
Crack!
The sound of shattering echoed as the four Dao artifacts instantly disintegrated, their essence scattering in all directions, their wills attempting to flee.
The ancient demon’s massive hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing the wills of the Dao artifacts and swallowing them whole. Its power surged once more.
If others were to witness Lin Fan shattering four Dao artifacts in one go, they would surely spit blood in shock. It was an act of such extravagance that it bordered on madness.

Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient demon to possess autonomous consciousness.

With a wave of his sleeve, a river of a million Saint Sun Pills formed, flowing into the “Demon City.” The ancient demon opened its mouth and swallowed the pills, beginning to refine them.
There were still two million Saint Sun Pills left, which Lin Fan decided to keep in reserve, just in case.
At that moment, the ancient demon’s aura surged once more, leaving Lin Fan utterly astounded.
Great Heaven Realm, peak.
Primordial Heaven Realm, initial stage.
Primordial Heaven Realm, middle stage.
…
“This is just too absurd.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient demon, whose cultivation soared as easily as drinking water. However, upon reaching the middle stage of the Primordial Heaven Realm, the ancient demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient to satisfy its appetite.
Though Lin Fan possessed the Divine Phoenix Tree, which continuously refined Saint Sun Pills, even it couldn’t keep up with the ancient demon’s voracious needs at this rate.
It seemed he would have to plunder more treasures in the future.
At that moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something—Despair Marquis was not in Despair City, which meant there must be plenty of treasures there. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?
“Senior, please save us…”
“Senior, please release us…”
At that moment, the myriad races imprisoned in the cages began to plead excitedly. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful—strong enough to single-handedly conquer Despair City, slay the four legion commanders, and have the artifact spirit devour a million ancient beings.

Lin Fan extended his hand, silently praying.
Please, let there be something good…
Lin Fan still had two million Solar Elixirs left and needed to conserve them for emergencies.
The radiant glow of dawn spilled across the sky as the realm of the demon gods appeared above the ancient demon. Within it, various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them was a wise demon god, whose words blossomed like golden lotuses, expounding profound and mysterious truths of the great Dao.
The demon gods were entranced, as if immersed in a certain state of enlightenment.
Roar!
The heavens and earth trembled, golden lotuses surged from the ground, and demonic energy filled the air. A divine light enveloped the “demon city.”
“I am the ancient…” At that moment, the ancient demon’s eyes suddenly erupted with a fierce light, a light of unparalleled ferocity. Its massive hand reached for the sky, lifting the demon city in its palm.
“Great Demon.”
As it roared these two words, the ancient demon’s aura fully erupted.
“So powerful, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt the surge of power and was deeply shaken. This power was a hundred times stronger than before.
The myriad races imprisoned in the cages were also stunned by the sight before them.

In that instant, Lin Fan hurled the four great commanders’ Dao artifacts into the void.

Crack!
The sound of shattering echoed as the four Dao artifacts instantly broke apart. Streams of energy shot out, and the wills of the Dao artifacts scattered, trying to escape.
The ancient demon’s massive hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing the wills of the Dao artifacts and swallowing them whole. Its power surged once more.
If others were to see Lin Fan shatter four Dao artifacts in one go, they would surely spit blood in shock. It was an extravagance that bordered on madness.
Lin Fan’s skill in artifact forging was unparalleled in the world. With sufficient materials, he could create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts with ease.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient demon’s body, like the sound of bones shattering, crackling and popping.
The ancient demon, originally ten thousand zhang tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand zhang.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan raised his hand, grasping the “demon city” in his palm, feeling a surge of joy. Powerful, so incredibly powerful.
It had finally ascended to a Dao artifact. Although it was only a low-grade Dao artifact, the power it contained surpassed even mid-grade Dao artifacts.
“Master, I need Saint Sun Pills for cultivation.” At that moment, something astonishing happened. The ancient demon, seated at the center of the demon city, suddenly spoke.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient demon to possess independent consciousness.
Though shocked, Lin Fan was also filled with wild joy. This gave him hope, hope for the ancient demon’s resurgence.
With a wave of his sleeve, a river of a million Saint Sun Pills formed, flowing into the “demon city.” The ancient demon opened its mouth, swallowing the pills and began refining them.
There were still two million Saint Sun Pills left, which Lin Fan kept in reserve for emergencies.
At that moment, the ancient demon’s aura surged once more, leaving Lin Fan utterly astonished.
Great Heaven Realm, peak.
Primordial Heaven Realm, initial stage.
Primordial Heaven Realm, middle stage.
…
“This is too insane.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient demon’s ability to elevate its cultivation as easily as drinking water. However, when it reached the middle stage of the Primordial Heaven Realm, the ancient demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient to satisfy its appetite.
Though Lin Fan possessed the Divine Phoenix Tree, which continuously refined Saint Sun Pills, even it couldn’t keep up with the ancient demon’s demands at this rate.
It seemed he would need to plunder more treasures in the future.
At that moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something. Despair Lord was not in Despair City, which meant there must be many treasures there. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?
“Senior, save us…”
“Senior, please release us.”
The myriad races imprisoned in the cages began to plead excitedly. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful, strong enough to single-handedly conquer Despair City, slay the four great commanders, and have the artifact spirit devour a million ancient beings.
Terrifying, truly terrifying.

The freed races wanted to express their gratitude to Lin Fan, but when they looked up, they saw that the human senior had already flown into the distance. They could only bow in reverence before turning to free their fellow captives.
First Commander’s treasure trove: three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two supreme-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
Second Commander’s treasure trove: poor, dirt poor, only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
Third Commander’s treasure trove: empty, not even a pair of underwear, a complete pauper.
Fourth Commander’s treasure trove: five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four great commanders of the ancient race, how can they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly exasperated. He then flew towards Despair Lord’s residence.
This was his last hope. If Despair Lord’s place didn’t have anything valuable, it would be a complete disaster.
What Lin Fan didn’t know was that the four great commanders of Despair City’s ancient race had numerous subordinates, and the resources they consumed were immense.
Especially since the four great commanders were constantly striving to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm, they were often in seclusion. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills was already quite an achievement.
Every time they attempted to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm, the four great commanders would be left penniless.
The First Commander had been about to make another attempt when Lin Fan appeared, causing him to halt his efforts. This allowed the spiritual artifacts to remain; otherwise, they would have been used to refine power for the breakthrough.
Lin Fan now stood before a tightly shut stone door, its surface carved with intricate patterns. However, Lin Fan paid little attention to the carvings. All he wanted to know was whether the treasures behind the door would be worth it.
Lin Fan extended his hand, silently praying.
Please, let there be something good…
Qingtian Peak, Perfect Stage.
Huangtian Initial Stage.
Huangtian Intermediate Stage.
…
The radiant glow of dawn spilled across the sky as the realm of the demon gods emerged above the ancient demon. Various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them was a wise demon god, who spoke golden lotuses, expounding the profound and mysterious principles of the great Dao.
All the demon gods were entranced, as if immersed in a certain realm.
Roar!
The heavens and earth trembled, golden lotuses surged from the ground, and demonic energy swept across the land. Divine light enveloped the “Demon City.”
“I am the ancient…” At that moment, the ancient demon’s eyes suddenly emitted a brilliant light, a light of unparalleled ferocity. With a giant hand that seemed to hold up the sky, it lifted the Demon City in its palm.
“Great Demon.”
As it roared these two words, the ancient demon’s aura erupted completely.
“So powerful, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt this immense power and was deeply shaken. This force was a hundred times stronger than before.

“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”

In that instant, Lin Fan sent the four Dao artifacts of the four legion commanders flying into the void.
“Break.”
Crack!
The sound of collapse echoed as the four Dao artifacts shattered instantly. Streams of energy shot out, and the wills of the Dao artifacts scattered, trying to escape.
The ancient demon’s massive hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing the wills of the Dao artifacts and swallowing them in one gulp. Its power surged once again.
If others were to see Lin Fan shatter four Dao artifacts in one go, they would surely spit out blood in shock. It was simply too extravagant, extravagance to the point of madness.
Lin Fan’s skill in artifact forging was unmatched in the world. With sufficient materials, he could effortlessly create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts without difficulty.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient demon, like the sound of bones breaking, crackling incessantly.
The ancient demon, originally ten thousand feet tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand feet.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan raised his hand and grasped the “Demon City,” feeling a surge of joy. Powerful, it was truly powerful.
Finally, it had ascended to a Dao artifact. Though only a low-grade one, the power it contained surpassed even mid-grade Dao artifacts.
“Master, I need Saint Yang Pills for cultivation.” At that moment, something astonishing happened—the ancient demon, seated at the center of the Demon City, suddenly spoke.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient demon to possess its own consciousness.
Though shocked, Lin Fan was also ecstatic. This gave him hope—the hope of the ancient demon regaining its former glory.
With a wave of his sleeve, a river of a million Saint Yang Pills formed and flew into the “Demon City.” The ancient demon opened its mouth and swallowed the pills, beginning to refine them.
There were still two million Saint Yang Pills left, which Lin Fan kept in reserve for emergencies.
At that moment, the ancient demon’s aura surged once more, leaving Lin Fan utterly astonished.
Peak of the Heavenly Realm.
Initial stage of the Primal Heaven Realm.
Mid-stage of the Primal Heaven Realm.
…
“This is just too insane.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient demon, whose cultivation rose as easily as drinking water. However, upon reaching the mid-stage of the Primal Heaven Realm, the ancient demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer enough to satisfy its appetite.
Though Lin Fan possessed the Phoenix Divine Tree, which continuously refined Saint Yang Pills, even it couldn’t keep up with the ancient demon’s demands at this rate.
It seemed he would need to plunder more treasures in the future.
At that moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something—the Despair Marquis was not in Despair City, which meant there must be many treasures there. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take those treasures?
“Senior, save us…”
“Senior, please release us.”
At that moment, the myriad races imprisoned in the cages began to plead excitedly. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful, strong enough to single-handedly conquer Despair City, slay the four legion commanders, and have the artifact spirit devour a million ancient beings.
Terrifying, it was truly terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing one of the imprisoned beings and instructing them to free their fellow captives. Meanwhile, Lin Fan transformed into a streak of light, flying toward the four spires.
Plunder—he would start with the four legion commanders.
The freed beings wanted to express their gratitude to Lin Fan, but when they looked up, they saw that the human senior had already flown into the distance. They could only bow in reverence before turning to rescue their comrades.
First Legion Commander’s treasury: three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two top-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
Second Legion Commander’s treasury: poor, extremely poor—only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
Third Legion Commander’s treasury: empty, not even a pair of underwear—utterly destitute.
Fourth Legion Commander’s treasury: five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four legion commanders of the ancient race, how could they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly exasperated. He then flew toward the residence of the Despair Marquis.
This was his last hope. If there were no valuable treasures there, it would truly be a disaster.
What Lin Fan didn’t know was that the four legion commanders of Despair City had numerous subordinates, and the resources they consumed were immense.
Moreover, the four legion commanders had been focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm and had been in seclusion most of the time. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills was already quite an achievement.
Every time they attempted to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm, the four legion commanders would be reduced to paupers.
The First Legion Commander had been about to attempt another breakthrough when Lin Fan appeared, causing him to halt his efforts. This allowed the spiritual artifacts to remain; otherwise, they would have been refined into energy for the breakthrough.
Lin Fan now stood before a tightly shut stone door, carved with intricate patterns. However, he paid little attention to the carvings. All he wanted to know was whether the treasures behind the door would be worth it.
Lin Fan extended his hand of hope, silently praying.
Give me something good…
The radiant glow of dawn spread across the sky as the realm of the demon gods emerged above the ancient demon. Within it, various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them was a wise demon god, who spoke golden lotuses, expounding profound and mysterious truths of the great Dao.
The demon gods were deeply entranced, as if immersed in a certain realm.
Roar!
The heavens and earth trembled, golden lotuses surged from the ground, and demonic energy filled the air. Divine light enveloped the “Demon City.”
“I am the ancient…” At that moment, the ancient demon’s eyes suddenly emitted a brilliant light, a light of unparalleled ferocity. With a giant hand reaching towards the sky, it held the Demon City in its palm.
“Great Demon.”
As it roared these two words, the ancient demon’s aura exploded completely.
“So powerful, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt the surge of power and was deeply shaken. This force was a hundred times stronger than before.
The beings of the myriad races who were imprisoned watched the scene before them, all struck with awe.
Some were native beings, while others were supreme overlords who had ascended from the lower realms. Yet, at this moment, they were all rendered speechless by what they saw.
“This is too powerful. For this treasure to ascend to a Dao artifact, it’s even stronger than ordinary Dao artifacts.”
“Who exactly is this human?”
At this moment, Lin Fan appeared to them like a celestial god. His flowing hair, resolute face, sharp and domineering eyes, and his hands clasped behind his back as he gazed into the void left a profound impression on the hearts of the myriad races.
“Sun-Splitting Soul Spear.”
“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”
…
In that instant, Lin Fan sent the four great commanders’ Dao artifacts flying into the void.
“Break.”
Crack!
The sound of shattering echoed as the four Dao artifacts instantly broke apart. Streams of energy shot out, and the wills of the Dao artifacts scattered, trying to escape.
The ancient demon’s massive hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing the wills of the Dao artifacts and swallowing them in one gulp. Its power surged once again.
If others were to see Lin Fan shatter four Dao artifacts in one go, they would surely spit out blood in shock. It was simply too extravagant, to the point of being overwhelming.
Lin Fan’s skill in artifact forging was unmatched in the world. With sufficient materials, he could effortlessly create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts without difficulty.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient demon’s body, like the sound of bones shattering, crackling incessantly.
The ancient demon, originally ten thousand feet tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand feet.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan reached out and grasped the “Demon City” in his hand, feeling a surge of joy. Powerful, so incredibly powerful.
It had finally ascended to a Dao artifact. Although it was only a low-grade Dao artifact, the power it contained was even greater than that of a mid-grade Dao artifact.
“Master, I need Saint Yang Pills for cultivation.” At that moment, something astonishing happened. The ancient demon, seated cross-legged at the center of the Demon City, suddenly spoke.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient demon to possess its own consciousness.
Though shocked, Lin Fan was also filled with elation. This gave him hope, the hope that the ancient demon could regain its former glory.
With a wave of his sleeve, a river of a million Saint Yang Pills formed and flew into the “Demon City.” The ancient demon opened its mouth and swallowed the million pills, then began refining them.
There were still two million Saint Yang Pills left, which Lin Fan decided to keep in reserve, just in case.
At that moment, the ancient demon’s aura surged once again, leaving Lin Fan utterly astonished.
Peak of the Azure Heaven Realm.
Initial stage of the Desolate Heaven Realm.
Mid-stage of the Desolate Heaven Realm.
…
“This is just too absurd.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient demon, whose cultivation soared as easily as drinking water. However, when it reached the mid-stage of the Desolate Heaven Realm, the ancient demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient to satisfy its appetite.
Although Lin Fan possessed the Phoenix Divine Tree, which continuously refined Saint Yang Pills, even the Divine Tree couldn’t keep up with the ancient demon’s needs at this rate.
It seemed that in the future, he would have to plunder more treasures.
At that moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something. Despair Marquis was not in Despair City, which meant there must be many treasures there. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?
“Senior, please save us…”
“Senior, please release us.”
At that moment, the imprisoned beings of the myriad races eagerly called out. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful, strong enough to single-handedly conquer Despair City, slay the four great commanders, and have the ancient demon devour a million ancient race beings.
Terrifying, truly terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing the beings from one of the cages and instructing them to free their fellow captives. Meanwhile, Lin Fan transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the four spires.
Plunder, starting with the four great commanders.
The released beings wanted to express their gratitude to Lin Fan, but when they looked up, they saw that the human senior had already flown far away. They could only bow in reverence before turning to free their comrades.
The first commander’s treasury contained three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two top-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
The second commander’s treasury was pitifully poor, with only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
The third commander’s treasury was completely empty, not even a pair of underwear to be found—utterly destitute.
The fourth commander’s treasury held five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four great commanders of the ancient race, how can they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly exasperated, then flew towards Despair Marquis’s residence.
This was his last hope. If there were no valuable treasures there, it would truly be a disaster.
What Lin Fan didn’t know was that the four great commanders of Despair City had numerous subordinates, and the resources they consumed were exceptionally vast.
Especially since the four great commanders were focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm, they were often in seclusion. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills was already quite an achievement.
Every time they attempted to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm, the four great commanders would be left penniless.
The first commander had originally planned to attempt another breakthrough, but Lin Fan’s appearance had halted his progress, allowing these spiritual artifacts to remain. Otherwise, they would have been used for refining and converted into energy for the breakthrough.
Lin Fan now stood before a tightly shut stone door, carved with intricate patterns. However, Lin Fan paid little attention to the carvings. The only thing on his mind was whether the treasures behind the door would be worth it.
Lin Fan extended his hand, silently praying.
Please, let there be something good…
It seemed he would have to plunder more treasures in the future.
Just then, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something—the Despair Marquis wasn’t in Despair City, meaning there must be many treasures there. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he leave those treasures behind?
“Senior, please save us…”
“Senior, please release us!”
At this moment, the imprisoned beings of the Great Thousand Races cried out in excitement. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful—single-handedly destroying Despair City, slaying the four legion commanders, and having the artifact spirit devour a million ancient races.
Terrifying—absolutely terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing one cage of the Great Thousand Races beings, then instructed them to rescue their fellow captives. Meanwhile, Lin Fan transformed into a streak of light, flying toward the four spired towers.
Time to plunder—starting with the four legion commanders.
Those released wanted to express their gratitude to Lin Fan, but when they looked up, they found the human senior had already flown far away. In the end, they could only bow in reverence and begin rescuing their fellow beings.
The radiant glow of dawn spread across the sky as the realm of the demon gods appeared above the ancient demon. Various demon gods rode the winds, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them, a wise demon god spoke golden lotuses, expounding the profound and mysterious truths of the great Dao.
All the demon gods were entranced, as if immersed in a certain realm.

“Sun-Splitting Soul Spear.”
“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”
…
In that instant, Lin Fan hurled the four Dao artifacts of the four legion commanders into the void.
“Break.”
Crack!
The sound of collapse echoed as the four Dao artifacts shattered instantly. Streams of energy shot out, and the wills of the Dao artifacts scattered, trying to escape.
The ancient demon’s massive hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing the wills of the Dao artifacts and swallowing them whole. Its power surged once again.
If others saw Lin Fan shatter four Dao artifacts in one go, they would surely spit blood in shock. It was an extravagance that bordered on madness.
Lin Fan’s skill in artifact forging was unparalleled in the world. With sufficient materials, he could create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts with ease.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient demon, like the sound of bones breaking, crackling and snapping.
The ancient demon, originally ten thousand zhang tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand zhang.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan raised his hand, grasping the “Demon City” in his palm, feeling a surge of joy. Powerful, incredibly powerful.
Finally, it had ascended to a Dao artifact. Though only a low-grade one, the power it contained was even greater than a mid-grade Dao artifact.
“Master, I need Saint Sun Pills for cultivation.” At that moment, something astonishing happened. The ancient demon, seated at the center of the Demon City, suddenly spoke.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient demon to possess its own consciousness.
Though shocked, Lin Fan was also ecstatic. This gave him hope, hope that the ancient demon could regain its former glory.

At that moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something. Despair Marquis wasn’t in Despair City, which meant there must be plenty of treasures there. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?
“Senior, save us…”
“Senior, please release us.”
At that moment, the imprisoned beings of the myriad races spoke up excitedly. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful, strong enough to single-handedly conquer Despair City, slay the four legion commanders, and have the ancient demon devour a million ancient race beings.
Terrifying, truly terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it.

“Who exactly is this human?”
At this moment, Lin Fan appeared to them like a celestial god—his flowing hair, resolute face, sharp and domineering eyes, and his hands behind his back, gazing into the void, left an indelible impression on the hearts of the myriad races.
“Sun-Piercing Soul-Splitting Spear.”
“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”
…
At this moment, Lin Fan hurled the four great commanders’ Dao artifacts into the void.
“Break.”
Crack!
The sound of collapse echoed as the four Dao artifacts shattered instantly, streams of energy shooting out, the wills of the Dao artifacts flying everywhere, trying to escape.

If others saw Lin Fan shatter four Dao artifacts in one go, they would surely spit blood in shock—it was too extravagant, extravagance to the point of madness.
Lin Fan’s own skill in artifact forging was unmatched in the world. With sufficient materials, human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts were all within his grasp, effortlessly created.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient great demon, like the sound of bones shattering, creaking and cracking.
The ancient great demon, originally ten thousand feet tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand feet.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan raised his hand, grasping the “Demon City,” and felt a surge of joy. Powerful, incredibly powerful.

“Master, I need Saint Yang Pills for cultivation.” At this moment, something astonishing happened—the ancient great demon, seated at the center of the Demon City, suddenly spoke.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient great demon to possess autonomous consciousness.
Though shocked, Lin Fan was also ecstatic. This gave him hope—hope for the ancient great demon to regain its former glory.
With a wave of his sleeve, a river of a million Saint Yang Pills condensed and flew into the “Demon City.” The ancient great demon opened its mouth, swallowing the million pills, and began refining them.
There were still two million Saint Yang Pills left, which Lin Fan decided to keep in reserve, just in case.
At this moment, the ancient great demon’s aura surged once more, leaving Lin Fan utterly astonished.

Terrifying, truly terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing a group of the imprisoned myriad races, instructing them to free their fellow beings. Meanwhile, Lin Fan transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the four spires.
Plunder—first, he would plunder the four great commanders.
The released myriad races wanted to express their gratitude to Lin Fan, but when they looked up, they saw that the human senior had already flown into the distance. They could only bow in reverence before turning to free their comrades.
The first commander’s treasury: three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two supreme-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
The second commander’s treasury: poor, dirt poor—only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
The third commander’s treasury: empty, not even a pair of underwear—utterly destitute.
The fourth commander’s treasury: five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills.
…
“Damn, as the four great commanders of the ancient races, how could they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly exasperated, then flew towards Despair Marquis’s residence.
This was his last hope. If there were no valuable treasures there, it would truly be a disaster.
In fact, Lin Fan didn’t know that the four great commanders of Despair City’s ancient races had many subordinates, and the resources they consumed were immense.
Especially since the four great commanders were focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm, they had been in seclusion most of the time. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Yang Pills was already quite an achievement.
Every time they attempted to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm, the four great commanders would become penniless.
The first commander had been about to attempt another breakthrough when Lin Fan’s appearance halted him, leaving these spiritual artifacts behind. Otherwise, they would have been used to refine power for the breakthrough.
Now, Lin Fan stood before a tightly shut stone door, carved with various patterns. However, Lin Fan paid little attention to these patterns. The only thing he wanted to know was whether the treasures behind this door would be worthwhile.
Lin Fan extended his hopeful hand, silently praying.
Give me something good…
Third Legion Commander’s treasure trove: completely empty, poorer than a beggar, not even a scrap of clothing.
Fourth Legion Commander’s treasure trove: five hundred thousand Solar Elixirs.
…
“Come on! As the four great legion commanders of the ancient race, how could they be so poor?” Lin Fan sighed in frustration before flying toward the residence of the Despair Marquis.
This was his last hope. If the Despair Marquis also had nothing valuable, then it would truly be a bitter disappointment.
Unknown to Lin Fan, the four great legion commanders of Despair City commanded many subordinates, consuming vast resources.
Especially since the four commanders were determined to breakthrough to the Divine Heaven Realm, they had been in constant seclusion. Accumulating five hundred thousand Solar Elixirs was already quite impressive.
Each attempt to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm left the four commanders penniless.
The radiant glow of dawn overflowed, and the realm of the demon gods appeared above the ancient great demon. Various demon gods rode the wind, constructing a perfect demon city. Among them, a wise demon god spoke golden lotuses, expounding profound and mysterious truths of the great Dao.
The various demon gods were entranced, as if immersed in a certain realm.
Roar!
The heavens and earth trembled, golden lotuses surged from the ground, demonic energy crisscrossed, and divine light enveloped the “demon city.”
“I am the ancient…” At this moment, the ancient great demon’s eyes suddenly erupted with a brilliant light, a light of unparalleled ferocity. With a giant hand that seemed to hold up the sky, it lifted the demon city in its palm.
“Great Demon.”
As it roared these two words, the ancient great demon’s aura completely erupted.
“So strong, is this the process of a spiritual artifact transforming into a Dao artifact?” Lin Fan felt this power and was deeply shaken. This force was a hundred times stronger than before.
The myriad races imprisoned here, witnessing this scene, were also struck with awe.
Some were native beings, others were supreme overlords who had ascended from lower realms, but now, faced with this spectacle, they were all rendered speechless.
“So powerful, this treasure’s ascension to a Dao artifact is even stronger than ordinary Dao artifacts.”
“Who exactly is this human?”
At this moment, Lin Fan appeared to them like a celestial god. His flowing hair, resolute face, sharp and domineering eyes, and his hands clasped behind his back, gazing into the void, left a profound impression on the myriad races.
“Sun-Splitting Soul Spear.”
“Vajra Demon Circle.”
“Earth Demon Hammer.”
…
In this instant, Lin Fan hurled the four great commanders’ Dao artifacts into the void.
“Break.”
Crack!
The sound of collapse echoed as the four Dao artifacts shattered instantly. Streams of energy shot out, and the wills of the Dao artifacts scattered, attempting to flee.
The ancient great demon’s massive hand blotted out the sky, forcibly seizing these Dao artifact wills and swallowing them whole, its power surging once more.
If others were to see Lin Fan shatter four Dao artifacts in one breath, they would surely spit out blood in shock. This was extravagance to the point of madness.
Lin Fan’s skill in artifact forging was unparalleled in the world. With sufficient materials, he could effortlessly create human artifacts, spiritual artifacts, and Dao artifacts.
Boom!
A deafening roar erupted from within the ancient great demon, like the sound of bones breaking, creaking and cracking.
The ancient great demon, originally ten thousand zhang tall, suddenly expanded to a hundred thousand zhang.
“Ding, congratulations on successful ascension.”
“Ding, ascended to a low-grade Dao artifact.”
Lin Fan raised his hand, grasping the “demon city,” and felt a surge of joy. So strong, incredibly strong.
Finally, it had ascended to a Dao artifact. Though only a low-grade one, the power it contained surpassed even mid-grade Dao artifacts.
“Master, I need Saint Sun Pills for cultivation.” At this moment, something astonishing happened. The ancient great demon, seated at the center of the demon city, suddenly spoke.
“This… this…”
Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected the ancient great demon to possess autonomous consciousness.
Though shocked, Lin Fan was also ecstatic. This gave him hope, the hope of the ancient great demon’s resurgence.
With a wave of his sleeve, a river of a million Saint Sun Pills formed, flowing into the “demon city.” The ancient great demon opened its mouth, swallowing the million pills, and began refining them.
There were still two million Saint Sun Pills left, which Lin Fan kept in reserve for emergencies.
At this moment, the ancient great demon’s aura surged once more, leaving Lin Fan astounded.
Great Heaven Realm, peak.
Primordial Heaven Realm, initial stage.
Primordial Heaven Realm, middle stage.
…
“This is too insane.” Lin Fan couldn’t help but admire the ancient great demon, whose cultivation rose as easily as drinking water. However, upon reaching the middle stage of the Primordial Heaven Realm, the ancient great demon’s aura stabilized. Clearly, the million pills were no longer sufficient.
Though Lin Fan possessed the Divine Phoenix Tree, which continuously refined Saint Sun Pills, even it couldn’t satisfy the ancient great demon’s appetite at this rate.
It seemed he would need to plunder more treasures in the future.
At this moment, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something. Despair Marquis was not in Despair City, which meant there must be many treasures there. Since he had already conquered Despair City, how could he not take the treasures?
“Senior, save us…”
“Senior, please release us.”
At this moment, the myriad races imprisoned in cages excitedly called out. They hadn’t expected this human senior to be so powerful, strong enough to single-handedly conquer Despair City, slay the four great commanders, and have the artifact spirit devour a million ancient race members.
Terrifying, truly terrifying.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t have believed it.
Lin Fan waved his hand, releasing the myriad races from one cage, instructing them to free their brethren. Meanwhile, he transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the four spires.
Plunder, starting with the four great commanders.
The released myriad races wanted to express their gratitude to Lin Fan, but when they looked up, they saw the human senior had already flown into the distance. They could only bow in reverence before setting off to rescue their kin.
First Commander’s treasury: three mid-grade spiritual artifacts, four high-grade spiritual artifacts, two supreme-grade spiritual artifacts, and five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
Second Commander’s treasury: poor, extremely poor, only five mid-grade spiritual artifacts and five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.
Third Commander’s treasury: empty, not even a pair of underwear, a bare-naked pauper.
Fourth Commander’s treasury: five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills.

“Damn, as the four great commanders of the ancient race, how can they be as poor as beggars?” Lin Fan was utterly exasperated, then flew towards Despair Marquis’s residence.
This was his last hope. If Despair Marquis’s place also lacked valuable items, it would be a real disaster.
In truth, Lin Fan didn’t know that the four great commanders of Despair City’s ancient race had numerous subordinates, and the resources they consumed were immense.
Especially since the four great commanders were focused on breaking through to the Divine Heaven Realm, they were often in seclusion. Being able to refine five hundred thousand Saint Sun Pills was already commendable.
Each attempt to break through to the Divine Heaven Realm left the four great commanders penniless.
The First Commander had been about to attempt another breakthrough, but Lin Fan’s appearance halted his efforts, allowing these spiritual artifacts to remain. Otherwise, they would have been refined into energy for the breakthrough.
Now, Lin Fan stood before a tightly shut stone door, carved with various patterns. However, Lin Fan paid little attention to these patterns. All he wanted to know was whether the items behind this door would be worthwhile.
Lin Fan extended his hopeful hand, silently praying.
Give me something good…
Now, Lin Fan hovered before a tightly sealed stone door. Various patterns were carved into it, but Lin Fan paid little attention to the carvings. His only concern was whether what lay beyond the stone door would be impressive enough.
Lin Fan extended his hopeful hand, silently praying.
Please be something good…
