At this moment, the demons coordinated flawlessly, especially the two most powerful fifth-stage demons. The nineteen crescent blades controlled by the red-horned demon and the black-robed demon nearly struck Dongbo Xueying simultaneously.
Dongbo Xueying stood calmly in midair, but his eyes burned with unhidden killing intent.
Whoosh!
With a single step, his form pierced through space and abruptly reappeared hundreds of meters away in another part of the sky.
Previously, he had been surrounded by five demons, all closing in from close range. Now, with an ultimate spatial penetration, he had repositioned himself in an entirely different direction. The five demons were now all clustered to his right front.
“Die!”
Boom~~~ Dongbo Xueying extended his right hand, and suddenly his palm erupted with dazzling crimson light. Surging waves of crimson transcendent battle qi formed a massive pillar of light, sweeping out in a fan shape toward the front-left, engulfing the area in a wide arc! This enormous crimson pillar was imbued with the ultimate penetration essence. Although its wide range caused its power to disperse, it was still more than sufficient!
The crimson pillar of battle qi, laced with the ultimate penetration essence, spread out in a fan shape at terrifying speed. Since the distance was already extremely short, aside from the red-horned demon, the other four could not escape in time.
“Hmph?” Although Wulang could have fled, he chose not to. “So it’s a wide-range attack? With such dispersed power, I’d like to see how strong it really is.”
Such a scattered attack—if they couldn’t even withstand it, they might as well surrender and commit suicide! This was the perfect chance to gauge Dongbo Xueying’s true strength.
“Hmph!” Wulang raised his massive weapon-claws, covering them with the essence of space-shattering intent, which also enveloped his powerful demonic body, directly withstanding the incoming blinding crimson light.
Two waves of essence power collided.
At the moment of contact, Wulang’s expression changed. He felt a terrifying and dreadful rule-force ruthlessly Crushing down upon him. Fortunately, the attack covered a radius of one or two miles, and he was only enduring a tiny fraction of its full might. His demonic power surged outward through the weapon-claws, manifesting the space-shattering essence to resist the oncoming impact, struggling to hold his ground!
“How is this possible? Even a wide-range attack can suppress me?” Wulang was shocked. “If it were a one-on-one duel, wouldn’t I be doomed?”
Wulang, who had mastered a third-tier essence, could still resist a wide-range attack, but the other four were not so fortunate.
“Ahhh!” The black-robed demon cried out in pain. His ‘Wave Domain Essence’ could not withstand the onslaught at all, pierced through like a sieve. However, his entire body was wrapped in a black robe, an extremely powerful defensive half-divine artifact. When necessary, it could fully cover every inch of his body. Although transcendent battle qi could not pierce the robe directly, the terrifying penetrative force of the ultimate penetration essence still struck him. Even through the half-divine artifact, it felt as if an entire towering mountain’s weight had crashed into his body. His immortal form began to fracture, and blood spurted from his mouth!
“How could he be this powerful?” The black-robed demon’s eyes were filled with disbelief.
“This Dongbo Xueying… how is he so much stronger than us?”
“This Xia Clan transcendent… he’s too powerful!”
“Wulang My Lord, help me!”
The other three fourth-stage demons suffered the worst fate.
If it had merely been point-target attacks like throwing daggers, piercing through instantly, even if it momentarily destroyed their bodies, each particle of their immortal forms would naturally regenerate with terrifying vitality! Such injuries, though severe—far worse than piercing through the skull or heart—could still be endured for several cycles thanks to their regeneration.
But this was different.
Dongbo Xueying’s wide-range attack was primarily aimed at these three fourth-stage demons. The massive, surging pillar of light swept across in a fan shape. In reality, the transcendent battle qi itself was quite diffuse. For Dongbo Xueying, the power of his peak-saint-level battle qi was too weak. What truly mattered was the terrifying might of the ultimate penetration essence.
The transcendent battle qi was merely the vessel for the essence.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~ The crimson pillar crushed over them. Their surface-level essence couldn’t even provide defense, and they lacked the full-body coverage half-divine artifact like the black-robed demon. In an instant, their immortal forms completely disintegrated. As the shattered particles began to regenerate with their terrifying vitality, they were continuously struck by the sustained destruction of the ultimate penetration essence’ rule-mystery…
The crimson pillar swept across for a full second.
Only when Dongbo Xueying could no longer sense the presence of the three fourth-stage demons did the attack cease.
Due to its fan-shaped spread, the crimson pillar had expanded to a diameter of three or four miles before finally sweeping back rapidly toward the distance. All the battle qi returned swiftly toward Dongbo Xueying! These battle qi accounted for about two-tenths of his total reserves, naturally worth reclaiming. This move relied on essence power, so the consumption of battle qi was negligible.
A single wide-range attack!
Three fourth-stage demons perished!
“Whoosh.” Almost immediately after finishing the move, Dongbo Xueying executed another ultimate penetration, appearing before the black-robed demon. His long spear, swirling like crimson clouds, stabbed directly forward.
“Ahhh!” The black-robed demon, terrified, continued hiding behind the protection of his black robe, which fully covered every inch of his body. The half-divine artifact’s material was so strong that even Dongbo Xueying couldn’t destroy it.
Boom!
The spear struck the black robe with terrifying penetrative force, transmitting through the robe and into the demon’s body. Instantly, his body shattered completely—but only his scales, muscles, and bones were crushed. This was not a particle-level destruction. Such injuries—no matter how many times they occurred—could be regenerated by his immortal form!
“What should I do? What should I do? Do I have to keep hiding inside this defensive artifact forever? But if this continues, my life force will eventually be exhausted!” The black-robed demon was anxious inside, yet dared not expose himself.
Boom! Without hesitation, Dongbo Xueying thrust his spear forward a second time.
As the spear lunged forward, it suddenly vanished into nothingness. Then, in the next instant, its tip reappeared—already inside the black-robed demon’s body! The spearhead, imbued with the ultimate penetration essence, instantly destroyed his body, causing every particle of his form to begin shattering.
“How is this possible—” the black-robed demon screamed in terror. “How could my Dark God Robe fail to stop this?”
Ultimate Penetration.
Everything could be pierced. It could forcefully penetrate both space and material barriers, appearing inside the enemy’s body! However, at the moment of ‘appearance,’ the spear would encounter resistance from the ‘black robe’ on a material level. After all, if not resisted, on a material level, the spear would have to pierce through the black robe to enter the demon’s body.
So at the moment of ‘appearance,’ there was a clash between the spear and the robe on a material level—a contest of compression and repulsion!
To be cautious, Dongbo Xueying had the spear’s tip lodged against the black robe.
The spearhead—crafted from divine realm starstone—was famous for its hardness and sharpness, rivaling mid-tier half-divine artifacts even without any additional arrays enhancing its power. In this material-level contest, the spear easily triumphed. Its material composition remained intact, while the black robe’s material was repelled, creating a wound.
This was the power of Ultimate Penetration! Thinking that merely protecting one’s entire body with a half-divine artifact could ensure survival? That was nothing but a joke!
One’s own strength was the most reliable. Either one’s body had to be strong enough to endure the blow, or one’s essence had to be powerful enough to resist the ultimate penetration essence! Otherwise, there was no escape but death!
“Actually pierced through?” Wulang, who had just teleported away in terror from the impact of the transcendent battle qi, was shocked to see Dongbo Xueying actually pierce through the Dark God Robe with a single spear strike. In truth, if he had observed more carefully while fleeing, he would have realized that the spear had simply entered the black-robed demon’s body through space. It was a contest of rule-mysteries, a material-level struggle between divine realm starstone and the black robe, ultimately resulting in the terrifying outcome—piercing through a half-divine artifact robe!
