Supreme Lord of Towers

"Brother Zhao, are you alright?" Ye Chen saw blood oozing from the corner of Zhao Jun's mouth and couldn't help but ask.

Earlier, if he hadn't arrived in time, Zhao Jun might have been in a very bad situation.

After all, the strength of that Ice Demon Race had already surpassed the threshold of the Golden Core Realm, and Zhao Jun simply couldn't withstand it.

"I'm fine, this injury will recover soon." Zhao Jun waved his hand and said.

He was just shaken, causing internal injuries and a few broken bones, but there was no risk to his life—he just needed to take one Healing Treasure Pill to recover.

"That's good. Guo Xi, I'll leave the other demons here to you guys to handle. Remember, not a single one should escape." Ye Chen said to the chubby guy, a terrifying glint bursting from his eyes.

With his strength, wiping out all demons here would be as easy as pie.

However, he chose not to do so and left some of the demons for the other Inner Hall Disciples.

This way, the other Inner Hall Disciples could also get a piece of the action.

"Alright, Brother Ye Chen, don't worry. I definitely won't let a single demon brat escape." Guo Xi said respectfully.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!

The next moment, he and other Inner Hall Disciples rushed towards the remaining demons on the battlefield.

Ah!

Soon, piercing screams echoed in the sky, sounding terrifying.

Under Guo Xi and the others' assault, demon race powerhouses kept falling without even a moment to fight back.

"So strong! Who on earth are they to be so powerful?"

"Especially that chubby guy, easily killing demons. Could it be that his strength has also surpassed the threshold of the Golden Core Realm?" The disciples of Ziwei Sacred Land gasped in shock.

It's known that even killing the powerhouses of this place's demon race isn't easy.

Yet, chubby Guo Xi made it as easy as slicing vegetables, truly fierce.

"Trying to escape, not so easy, die!" At that moment, an extremely terrifying force suddenly erupted from Lin Yao's body, enveloping a group of demon race powerhouses trying to flee.

Splat splat!

The next moment, the group of demon race powerhouses turned into a mist of blood, as if made of paper, completely defenseless.

"So strong!"

This scene left the Ziwei Sacred Land disciples utterly stunned.

Even Zhao Jun's eyes widened, staring at Lin Yao with deep apprehension.

Lin Yao's strength ranked within the top hundred among Human King Hall's Inner Hall Disciples, even stronger than Guo Xi.

He had even killed Quasi-God descendants before, let alone this group of ordinary demon race powerhouses.

In less than half a cup of tea's time, the battlefield's demon race powerhouses were all exterminated by Human King Hall's Inner Hall Disciples, not a single escapee.

With two powerhouses, Guo Xi and Lin Yao, rivaling Quasi-God descendants, they couldn't escape even if they wanted to.

"Ye Chen, could they be disciples of Human King Hall?" At this moment, Zhao Jun couldn't help but ask Ye Chen.

He had learned that Ye Chen had joined Human King Hall.

So, being with Human King Hall's disciples was quite normal.

"Exactly! Aren't they impressive?" Ye Chen grinned.

"Impressive, of course. Even our Ziwei Sacred Land's disciples can't compare." Zhao Jun couldn't help but exclaim.

Previously, while he had heard of Human King Hall's Inner Hall Disciples each being exceptionally talented, even surpassing the disciples of the Five Great Sacred Lands, he never truly witnessed them and thus doubted their abilities.

Now, he had no choice but to believe.

"Brother Zhao, it wasn't until I joined Human King Hall that I realized how many talents they have. Although we hail from the Divine Spirit Family, there are many secrets in this world we can't touch." Ye Chen sighed.

Before joining Human King Hall, he never expected them to recruit so many exceptional talents.

Especially Human King Hall's True Disciples, who are no weaker than the Saints and Saintesses of the Five Great Sacred Lands.

This is mainly because Human King Hall's disciples rarely roam in Yellow Cloud World, opting instead for Outer Realm missions.

So, it's quite normal for Yellow Cloud World's cultivators not to know their true strength.

"Ye Chen, you're right. We were just frogs at the bottom of the well. Before the Outer Realm demon race invaded Yellow Cloud World, I thought nothing of them. Now, I see how truly powerful they are." Zhao Jun chuckled bitterly.

This time, he came to the Dark Mountain Range to execute a demon extermination task, brimming with confidence.

After all, as Ziwei Sacred Land's Candidate Saint Son, dealing with ordinary demon race powerhouses should be a breeze.

Yet unexpectedly, the demons proved far more terrifying than he imagined; even a casual Nascent Soul descendant could defeat him.

Hard to imagine how formidable those stronger Quasi-God descendants would be.

Before those Quasi-God descendants, he'd surely be unable to withstand even a single move.

"So, Brother Zhao, what are your plans now?" Ye Chen asked with concern.

Since a young age, Zhao Jun often visited his home and treated him well.

Thus, in Ye Chen's heart, Zhao Jun was a good friend.

He naturally didn't want Zhao Jun facing any danger in the Dark Mountain Range.

"Though strong, as disciples of Ziwei Sacred Land, we absolutely cannot retreat and must complete the demon extermination task before returning." Zhao Jun said firmly.

He knew some demons posed a threat to him.

Yet, he wouldn't shrink back because of it.

If everyone feared demons, Yellow Cloud World would soon fall.

Moreover, not every demon is a Nascent Soul descendant.

Most demon race powerhouses are not Zhao Jun's match.

As long as he isn't too unlucky, encountering much stronger demon powerhouses, he should be safe.

"Since that's the case, let's go together! I heard there's a large battlefield in the Dark Mountain Range, where there should be many demon powerhouses." Ye Chen's eyes sparkled.

His primary purpose in entering the Dark Mountain Range was to slay demons and earn Human Race Contribution Points.

So, naturally, he wouldn't miss this opportunity.

Though he had gained over ten thousand Human Race Contribution Points, enough to exchange for Purifying Fire.

Yet, he needed more Contribution Points to exchange for True Dragon Blood Crystal.
