With a slash, the tuna demon beast perished, but it was not the only one in the area. No fewer than five or six Heavenly King Realm powerhouses of the Demon Race loomed nearby.

"He's not an Evil Demon. That's definitely Su Han!" The tuna demon beast's death was shocking, but all those present were Heavenly King Realm veterans of countless battles. They recovered quickly and guessed Su Han's identity. One of the demon beasts swiftly sent a message informing the others of Su Han's appearance. At the same time, the five demon beasts converged on Su Han, intending to trap him there.

"This man is extremely powerful. Even Jing Ming died at his hands. Don't fight him head-on! Just stall until the Demon Venerable arrives," one of them said.

Su Han's notorious reputation had already spread. Coupled with the lesson from the tuna demon beast's fate, these five demons dared not engage him in direct combat. They only wished to delay him until reinforcements arrived.

Unfortunately for them, Su Han was intent on breaking out of the encirclement and had no intention of giving them that opportunity.

"Nine Palace Golden Pagoda!" Su Han reached out and summoned the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda. It instantly expanded to thirty meters, shimmering with golden light and exuding an intense Holy Might. The first two palaces opened, unleashing a potent suppressive force that immediately immobilized one of the demon beasts.

"Slash!" With the Black Blade in hand, Su Han executed a slash through the air. A blazing blade of thunder and fire cut through the seawater, instantly killing the demon beast suppressed by the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda.

"Spiritual Freeze!"

"Divine Prohibition Heavenly Method!"

Su Han struck again. His Divine Sense swept out like a tide, freezing his target's sea of consciousness, while he deployed the Divine Prohibition Heavenly Method to immobilize its physical body. Clenching his left fist, he unleashed the Golden Emperor Tanyang Fist, blowing the second demon beast to pieces on the spot.

"Quick, use the Supreme Treasures!" Since these individuals dared to ambush Su Han, they had naturally come prepared. It was public knowledge that he possessed a Holy Artifact. The remaining three demon beasts quickly took out their Supreme Treasures and activated them. An intense Supreme aura enveloped them as they struck at Su Han.

Though Su Han had the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda, he could not withstand the attack of three Supreme Treasures at once. He was swiftly beaten until his skin split and his flesh was a mangled, bloody mess.

"He's injured!" Seeing this, a glint of joy appeared in the eyes of all three demon beasts. As long as Su Han was injured, they could hold him back. Once the Demon Venerable arrived, the greatest credit would be theirs.

However, the joy on their faces quickly froze, replaced by looks of horror.

They watched as Su Han's wounds healed at a rate visible to the naked eye. In less than three seconds, his injuries had completely vanished, as if he had never been hurt at all.

Su Han's Sacred Body was already formidable, and when combined with the monstrous recovery power of his Demon Body, he could recover quickly from anything short of a grievous, debilitating injury or some special technique.

"Primordial Qi Opening Sky Axe!" Su Han's gaze was cold and his killing intent surged like a tide. He quickly deployed the Origin Technique, striking directly at one of the demon beasts. The hundred-meter-large Primordial Qi Opening Sky Axe's might was not enough to truly split heaven and earth, but it was more than sufficient to slay a Heavenly King Realm demon beast.

The target demon beast no longer had its Supreme Treasure, and its strength was only at the Sixth Layer of the Heavenly King Realm. Facing a full-power Su Han, it was completely unable to resist and was cleaved in half on the spot. Its blood stained the sea red—a gruesome sight.

With four Heavenly King Realm demon beasts killed in quick succession, the remaining two turned pale, their eyes overflowing with fear.

Although they knew Su Han was strong, they never imagined he would be this powerful. Even though they were also in the Heavenly King Realm, they were like helpless chicks before him, utterly defenseless and easily butchered. No wonder he could slaughter so freely in the Dragon Palace Ruins and even seize the opportunity at the Dragon Transformation Pool. Such a man was no longer an ordinary prodigy. Only the Imperial Sons and Holy Maidens of the various tribes could possibly deal with him. As for everyone else, they were simply not on his level.

Yet, at this moment, the two did not dare to flee. They had received a direct order to capture Su Han. If they fled now, they would suffer a punishment worse than death later. Besides, they had already stalled for a long time. They were unwilling to give up now.

"Teleportation!" The remaining two demon beasts wised up. They immediately used Teleportation to create distance, avoiding Su Han's attacks while defending with all their might. They stopped attacking, focused solely on stalling until reinforcements arrived.

Soon, the powerful aura of a Supreme rapidly approached from afar, and a look of joy appeared in the two demon beasts' eyes. A Demon Venerable had arrived! If they could just hold on for a moment longer, they would live, and even earn the highest merit.

"Origin Technique: Shape-Shifting Shadow!" Su Han's face was expressionless, his demeanor detached. He made his move decisively, executing the Origin Technique to swap places with one of the demon beasts, instantly closing the distance to the other.

"Golden Emperor Tanyang Fist!" He threw a punch, unstoppable and accompanied by his Spiritual Freeze Origin Technique. The demon beast never imagined its nearby ally would suddenly become Su Han. Faced with this punch, it had no time to react.

BANG!

Su Han's fist blew the demon's head apart, reducing it to a bloody pulp. Its life and path were extinguished.

"Demon Venerable, save me!" Seeing its ally killed, the last remaining demon beast felt the hair on its body stand on end with terror. It immediately threw all caution to the wind and fled toward the approaching Musk Demon Venerable for its life.

"Kill!" Su Han simultaneously used Teleportation and the Character Technique of Motion to swiftly pursue it. Then, right before the Musk Demon Venerable's eyes, he slashed off the demon's head.

And with that, every demon beast at this weak point had been slaughtered by Su Han. Not a single one was left.

"Su Han, you are courting death!" The Musk Demon Venerable had arrived. He had rushed over the moment he received the message, but he was still a step too late. Su Han had slaughtered every last demon beast, and he had done it right in front of him. This made the Demon Venerable's anger flare, and he felt greatly provoked.

Upon seeing the Musk Demon Venerable, Su Han wasted no words and turned to flee.

He was currently wearing the Ghostly Face Mask, using Physique Fusion, and was in his Demonized State. He had already reached his limits and chose not to engage the Demon Venerable, as it would be pointless.

He fully utilized the Character Technique of Motion and Lightning Fast, combining them with the Art of Teleportation. In the blink of an eye, he transformed into a streak of black light, broke through the encirclement, and swiftly escaped.

"I will hunt you to the ends of the earth and kill you!" the Musk Demon Venerable roared. He stirred up a raging undercurrent, deployed his own Domain, and used Teleportation to chase after Su Han. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

But Su Han was not slow, and a considerable distance already separated him from the Musk Demon Venerable. He not only broke through the encirclement but also breached the third blockade line.

Seven days later, Su Han appeared in a remote sea area. This was not the way to the Eastern Region; he had instead taken the opposite path. By doing so, he had successfully shaken off the three great Demon Venerables and the other demon beasts.

All was calm. Su Han could finally stop to catch his breath. Yet just then, his heart skipped a beat, and he abruptly turned his head.

In the rippling azure waters, a black whale emerged.

The Imperial Son of the Jing Tribe, Black Whale
