Demons, by nature, are evil and excel in slaughter. When ordinary people encounter them, they might be torn apart in the blink of an eye, with no power to resist.

The demon, a zhang in length, seeing Wang Xuan catching up, knowing it couldn’t match his speed, stopped running. Or rather, it intended to lure Wang Xuan down from the start.

It bared its fangs, staring at Wang Xuan greedily, as if laying eyes on a delicacy.

“A delicious meal, you’ve come to me yourself!” In fact, from its perspective, Wang Xuan’s flesh was a great tonic, exuding a sweet aroma all over.

With a Mixed Element Martial Scripture Innate Realm Body at its limit, Wang Xuan’s flesh was like glazed glass, his energy crystallized, having the traits of a Peak of Divine Treasure and even a Vajra Realm flesh body.

This was not merely the effect of the Cultivation Technique but also the result of consuming a vast amount of Celestial Dew, transforming it into bodily nourishment. Through an accelerator, his body submerged in a pool of Celestial Dew as if soaking for decades or even centuries.

It’s like he’s a moving Ginseng Fruit now; a bite would greatly enhance one’s cultivation level. If this demon consumed him, it would probably evolve rapidly.

“You’ve set your eyes on my flesh, haven’t you? Good taste, every drop of my blood now is equivalent to a mouthful of Celestial Dew, and it doesn’t vanish.

But wanting a bite of Tang Monk’s Flesh, you’re still lacking in strength.”

Wang Xuan assessed the demon. His earlier practice was to absorb that Celestial Dew, transforming it into body potential, and he succeeded, but it also attracted such covetous gazes.

“If I consume you, I can smoothly advance to an Upper Rank Demon and easily handle your human Vajra Realm cultivators! So, let me eat you!”

In the Hell Realm, demons have a strict hierarchy. High-Level Demons rule over the lower ranks, forming a pyramid structure.

Little Demons, Demons, Demon Lords, Great Demon Lords, and Demon Kings correspond to Earth Civilization’s Body Refining, Human Immortal, Earth Immortal, Celestial Immortal, and True Immortal, with each realm divided into Lower, Middle, and Upper Ranks.

This one is a Middle-Rank Demon, equivalent in strength to Innate to Divine Treasure Realm cultivators, and with its slaying prowess, a common Divine Treasure cultivator is no match.

Moreover, Wang Xuan had just connected the Bridge of Heaven and Earth, advancing to the Innate Realm, yet hadn’t had time to consolidate!

A mere weakling! It’s served itself on a platter for it to devour.

The demon grinned wickedly, spewing a flame towards Wang Xuan, filling the entire passageway, making escape impossible.

Oxygen depleted instantly, the terrifying flames turned the soil rigid and scorched, and the demon charged forward amidst the fiery onslaught, claws like steel knives reaching for Wang Xuan.

Clang!

Sparks flew in all directions.

Step by step, Wang Xuan walked forward, shielded by a barrier formed from Innate Gang Qi. Thanks to his Innate Cultivator’s Fetal Breath, even the harshest conditions had no effect on him.

“So this is a demon? Its physique is indeed formidable.”

With hearty laughter, Wang Xuan pushed off with his foot, instantly rushing towards the demon, engaging in close combat.

In that instant, the man and demon exchanged dozens of strikes, with every blow landing solidly, showcasing the power of their physiques.

Boom!

Wang Xuan punched the demon away, his body covered in countless scratches, as if cut by sharp blades, yet no blood was seen.

In contrast, the demon, dazed by his power, was deeply embedded in the soil.

The demon flipped over, standing up: “I don’t believe it! You, an Innate Realm novice, are this strong!”

Its Demonic Qi easily cut through the soil, and with a roar, it lunged at Wang Xuan, claws slashing at his chest.

The claws, which could cut iron like mud, clashed with Wang Xuan’s flesh, creating sparks and a metallic clang!

This result left it aghast! Wang Xuan’s physique could actually ignore claws that had shredded countless Innate cultivators.

“Why is your defense so strong?! Did you somehow incorporate a Defensive Magical Treasure into your skin and flesh?!” It roared, but in front of it, Wang Xuan wore only a pair of shorts.

Wang Xuan grabbed the demon’s arm with one hand, sneering: “Is it only allowed for demons to have physiques stronger than humans? Ridiculous!”

By now, he had already raised his huge fist, slamming it onto the demon’s chest.

Bang!

Immense power poured out, causing the ground to collapse instantly, sinking five or six meters over an area of ten square meters.

Punch after punch.

Wang Xuan pinned the demon, his fist raining down like falling meteors, with unimaginable force and speed.

Each punch caused the soil beneath them to collapse rapidly, unable to withstand the impact.

A full-force punch landed on the demon, a sound of bones cracking was heard, but within a single breath, its body recovered as if unharmed.

“You can’t kill me!” the demon roared, thrashing its limbs in an attempt to break free. But once Wang Xuan’s grip tightened, it never loosened again.

“Can’t kill you? I really want to try! Just not sure if your head is harder or my fist!”

Wang Xuan forcefully suppressed the demon, his strength utterly superior, an almost crushing advantage, his fist continuing to pound down on its head.

One punch, ten punches, a hundred punches, a thousand punches!

The thick-skinned, tough-fleshed demon, with its scales and formidable physique, only had its head smashed into mush after Wang Xuan unleashed thousands of punches.

With spiritual perception, the demon’s will truly vanished, seemingly truly dead rather than feigning death.

Only then did Wang Xuan breathe a sigh of relief.

“It’s so hard to kill, no wonder the Hell Realm’s progress is so slow. Killing a demon of the same realm is as hard as ascending to heaven for cultivators. Without using Magical Treasures, humans aren’t a match in flesh-to-flesh combat.”

The soil above kept collapsing, burying Wang Xuan underground. Yet, after a short while of punching, he emerged several hundred meters upward.

Looking up, he saw a vertical passageway over ten thousand meters deep, a truly majestic sight, a corridor punched out by his sheer force.

His physique is truly terrifyingly formidable!

Carrying the corpse of the Middle-Rank Demon, Wang Xuan returned to the surface, controlling the starship to bring Lin Cheng down.

Even though it had been only two or three minutes, Lin Cheng was very worried and was startled by the demon’s corpse.

“How could there be demons on our Mother Star?!”

Lin Cheng couldn’t fathom it. The Federation’s safest place, Earth Civilization’s Mother Star, infiltrated by demons; where there’s one, there’s sure to be more.

The demonic evil aura soon drew other cultivators. Wang Xuan dressed and stored the demon’s corpse in a Storage Space.

Just this one corpse could easily exchange for billions of Star Yuan with the Federation Government, possibly even counting as a military accomplishment.

Soon, the news spread, and personnel from the Federation Government came to investigate, taking the demon’s remains.

Due to Wang Xuan’s identity and power, the Federation Government offered substantial compensation and rewards, and Wang Xuan let it go.

The Federation suppressed the news, but many cultivators knew that a young man from the Spirit Valley Villa District had slain a Middle-Rank Demon.

Such prowess is extraordinary, enough to prove Wang Xuan’s capability.

A reputation like this suffices to avoid most troubles, as others who know his cultivation level wouldn’t dare to provoke him lightly.

Roaming the martial world relies not only on strength but also on reputation, which serves as one’s name card. Killing a Middle-Rank Demon makes most Divine Treasure cultivators deeply apprehensive.

On seeing twenty billion Star Yuan credited, Wang Xuan felt neither sadness nor joy, shaking his head with a smile, “In less than five minutes, I earned twenty billion Star Yuan.

Am I making money too fast now, or was I too slow before?”

Indeed, cultivation level is fundamental; as long as it improves, making money becomes an easy task.
