[Congratulations to the player for completing the "Destroy the Demon Hatchery" task, exclusive reward: Immortal Heart (Top-tier Spiritual Object)]

[Rewards have been issued, please check the reward details in the backpack]

Lu Yu excitedly opened his backpack, seeing a heart full of vitality stored inside. He clicked on the item description of the Immortal Heart and learned it is a top-tier Spiritual Object, which can be used to refine Divine Soldiers to gain the ability of an Immortal Body.

The Immortal Body, the basic level increases self-healing abilities by a hundredfold and grants immunity to most biological toxins and abnormal states.

The highest level of Immortal Body even possesses the ability of Blood Rebirth; as long as there's a drop of blood left, the body can regenerate.

This is the power of a top-tier Spiritual Object. Lu Yu hadn't seen the Immortal Heart in the Divine Soldiers list, but the level alone of top-tier Spiritual Objects was enough to highlight the preciousness of the Immortal Heart.

In the Divine Soldiers list, only the top 120 Spiritual Objects are classified as top-tier Spiritual Objects.

Among them, nearly 20 are unknown-level Spiritual Objects, so the number of top-tier Spiritual Objects recorded on the Divine Soldiers list is around 100.

Even if there are some unrecorded top-tier Spiritual Objects, it's unlikely the number exceeds much.

If other Spiritual Objects were to enter the list, the ones ranked lower might drop in evaluation level; the comparison between Spiritual Objects determines their grade.

This ranking is derived by humans, so downgrades and upgrades of Spiritual Objects are possible.

Based on the abilities of the Immortal Heart, Lu Yu estimated it could at least rank within the top 60 of the Divine Soldiers list.

Suddenly, he felt less inclined to search for the Sun Fragment.

Ranked at 233, the Sun Fragment was classified as rare and quite hard to come by for others.

However, for Lu Yu, who already possessed the Immortal Heart possibly within the top 60 or even more, the 233rd-ranked Sun Fragment seemed somewhat lacking.

Glancing at the surrounding Core Formation Realm cultivators, Lu Yu resisted the urge to take out and study the Immortal Heart. The higher the level of the Spiritual Object, the more difficult it is to refine. He wasn't sure if he had the power to refine the Immortal Heart and acquire the Immortal Body.

If he didn't have that power, he could only settle for an alternative substitute.

With this thought, Lu Yu looked towards the red clouds in the distance, the black mist had mostly dissipated, leaving only a thin layer that didn't obstruct the view. He could see the red clouds outside Beifeng City.

He could see the nearly thousand-meter-tall Ancient Fire Spirit God, still in battle with Luo Sha up to this point.

Lu Yu thought that when he and his companions returned, they might be able to help Luo Sha defeat the Ancient Fire Spirit God.

As he considered how to obtain the Sun Fragment from the Ancient Fire Spirit God, a violent friction sound echoed in the sky, with a meteor hurtling down towards everyone.

The Demon-Breaking Saber in his palm became extremely heated, and Lu Yu looked towards the direction of the sound in shock as a black object plummeted towards them, its speed increasing.

Without time to warn others, Lu Yu hastily executed Heaven's Edge Ruler Step to escape the impact range of the "meteor".

Boom! Earth-shattering, the ground cracked, rising seven to eight meters high, the impact center sank over ten meters.

Bam~ Bam~ A sound proceeded from the center of the crater, a tall figure walked out, gazing at the sky-stunned crowd.

The crowd turned at the sound, their minds blank upon witnessing the figure's face.

"How is it still alive?"

Descending from high above was none other than the Demon General, not destroyed in the whirlwind with the collapse of the Demon Crypt. Surviving unscathed, not harmed by the whirlwind at all.

Bam~ The Demon General suddenly jumped from the ground, rushing at a Core Formation Realm Martial Cultivator who couldn't react in time, only summoning Divine Soldiers to block in front.

Crack~ A shocking and heartbreaking sound echoed as the Divine Soldiers were hit by a single strike from the Demon General, forming a crack, nearly exploding. The Core Formation Realm was sent flying.

The Demon General stood in mid-air, raising his hand with a black, constantly pulsating sphere in his palm, resembling a black hole absorbing any substance in the world.

Soil, air, Spiritual Qi… all absorbed into the black sphere, the Core Formation martial cultivators in front couldn't control their bodies as they drew closer to the sphere.

With fearful expressions, they watched in horror as the Demon General grew closer, their Divine Soldiers unleashed immense power attacking the Demon General.

But when they were about to hit the Demon General, they were sucked into the black sphere, and as they absorbed the attacks, the black sphere pulsed even more vigorously, almost escaping the palm of the Demon General.

"Damnit! Stop!" Someone extended his Divine Soldiers to the ground, trying to halt his body's slide towards the sphere.

Others displayed their skills, attempting to stop their bodies while constantly harassing the Demon General to cease his attack.

The affected crowd, witnessing the Demon General's strength, all took out Divine Soldiers, seizing the moment when the Demon General focused on others to ambush him.

Lu Yu felt the grip heat up, quietly stepping back. The Demon General was not someone he could handle, not even the Demon-Breaking Saber displayed a different level of heat toward it.

It was an unfamiliar scorching sensation for Lu Yu, possibly indicating the Demon-Breaking Saber's battle desire or warning Lu Yu of an unbeatable enemy, urging him to flee.

A mere Qi Sea cultivator escaping amidst a clash between Core Formation Realm powerhouses would be reasonable, right!

Faced with the crowd's assault, the Demon General raised his palm, releasing the pulsating black sphere. Instantly, it expanded to over twenty meters.

Boom! A mixture of attacks exploded, blasting everyone attacking the Demon General away.

Ignoring the wounded, blasted crowd, the Demon General located Lu Yu amidst them and walked toward him, each step gathering surrounding power.

He was paying the highest respect to Lu Yu, acknowledging a troublesome opponent who repeatedly disrupted his plans despite being far weaker.

Lu Yu felt a heavy pressure upon him, locked by the Demon General's aura, knowing any movement would invite a storm of attacks.

Seeing this, Lu Yu could only grip his blade tightly, gathering his internal strength into a rope, ready to escape the Demon General's attack range at the fastest... speed.

He waited for an opportunity, needing someone to break the Demon General's aura-lock.

Boom! An unexpected attack struck the Demon General, interrupting its aura-lock, dispersing the gathered power around it.

"Opportunity!" Lu Yu disappeared, reappearing forty thousand meters away, flashing a few more times until reaching a hundred thousand meters distance.

At this range, even the Demon General couldn't threaten his life.

Phew~ The delayed sound of the attack echoed as the Demon General recovered, gazing afar to find the source from an exceedingly distant place.

Lu Yu stopped to observe the Demon General's movements, sensing familiar auras entering his range, turning to see.

Jing Yang, holding an illuminated bow taller than a person, appeared in his vision, along with Su Peng in a fitted outfit, with a white cloak covered in intricate symbols behind him.

"Lu Yu, I've come to save you, feeling particularly touched seeing me now, aren't you?" Su Peng appeared before Lu Yu, cheerfully asking.

"I know you want to say a lot, but let's deal with this opponent first. That last strike seemed to have barely affected it." Jing Yang, standing by Su Peng, glanced at Lu Yu, gazing at the distant Demon General.

From over ten thousand meters away, his arrow not only precisely hit the Demon General but dispersed its gathered power.

"No problem, leave it to me." Su Peng walked toward the Demon General, his cloak fluttering.

Jing Yang raised his bow, aiming at the Demon General ten thousand meters away.
