Chu Ming was unsure of his current strength, but he had a feeling that powerful figures like Dic, the Demon King, couldn't survive a single move from him. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Breaking through the Life and Death Realm was an overall enhancement. Moreover, he wore the Celestial Level Top Tier Defense Armor, Azure Sky Armor, and wielded the Celestial Level Top Tier Weapon, Azure Sky Sword. At the peak of the Realm of Transcendence, Chu Ming couldn't fully utilize the power of the Celestial Level treasure sword, but now, having broken through to the Life and Death Realm, he could finally unleash its full power.

Boom!

A terrifying sound echoed through the world, followed by a terrifying demonic mist seeping out from the void. Finally, a hunched figure formed from the mist. The black-robed Demon King Su Qi stepped out of the black mist, staring coldly at Chu Ming, killing intent radiating wildly.

"I never expected you to successfully break through to the Life and Death Realm?"

Demon King Su Qi's eyes narrowed. Now, Chu Ming's internal spiritual power was vast and boundless, and he couldn't fathom its depth. Vaguely, he felt that the current Chu Ming was not weaker than him.

"There are many things you won't expect!"

Two bright lights burst from Chu Ming's eyes, like two flames consuming everything around. The Azure Sky Sword in his hand slowly lifted, and terrifying tiny sword auras splashed out from it, instantly slicing the sea within a thousand miles into several parts.

"Heh heh heh, let me see how strong you, this newly-promoted genius who broke through the Life and Death Realm, truly are..."

A cold smile appeared at the corner of Demon King Su Qi's mouth as he calmly spoke. The demonic qi around him surged, transforming into demonic flames blooming around him.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As soon as his words dropped, his body moved like black lightning. In an instant, the figure of Demon King Su Qi appeared within a hundred meters of Chu Ming, his right hand curved into a claw, transforming into a towering hand that shattered the space, turning the rolling waves into a sky-high beam, resonating through the depths of the cosmos.

Ting, ting, ting...

The Azure Sky Sword was released, sweeping through the power of space and wrapping it around the blade. Each clash with Su Qi's demonic claw caused countless sparks to fly out in front of Chu Ming.

In mid-air, blood light filled the space. The Silver Level martial intent in Chu Ming's mind erupted, transforming into a mighty sword aura, striking towards Demon King Su Qi. However, Su Qi's icy gaze shattered the sword aura and the sword net with a single claw.

Boom!

In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged thousands of moves. The more they fought, the more astonished Demon King Su Qi became. In terms of strength, he was equivalent to the Late Stage of a Top Tier King, but Chu Ming, who had just broken through the Life and Death Realm, could now fight him evenly. This realization brought waves of shock to his heart.

"Demon God's Hand!"

Boom!

With an angry roar, Demon King Su Qi's body instantly expanded, morphing from an aged human form into a terrifying demon over ten thousand meters tall. His right claw turned into an Ancient Divine Mountain, blotting out the sky and striking towards Chu Ming in an instant, tearing the space apart with countless blood lights flooding the area.

The Demon God's Hand was a high-tier secret martial art, incredibly evil and immensely powerful. Demon King Su Qi had once used this move to kill an Early Stage Top Tier King.

Boom!

Facing the Demon God's Hand, Chu Ming's aura didn't falter. He stepped forward in an instant, his red robe flowing, and sword light sweeping across the sky. The Azure Sky Sword in his right hand released three terrifying and sharp sword auras, instantly meeting the Demon God's Hand in the sky.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Across the entire world, demonic qi and spiritual power rampaged. By now, Chu Ming had a clear understanding of his combat power, which was on par with Demon King Su Qi, equivalent to a Late Stage Top Tier King.

Moreover, as Chu Ming became more proficient in controlling his vast spiritual power, his combat strength continued to increase, albeit slowly.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Rip!

Simultaneously, Chu Ming and Demon King Su Qi tore through space and retreated, like two bolts of lightning leaping through the air. Chu Ming's expression was calm, while Demon King Su Qi's face gradually darkened.

He understood that it would be extremely difficult to capture Chu Ming today.

"Hmph!"

Not wanting to waste time, Demon King Su Qi snorted coldly, turning and tearing through the void, disappearing from sight.

Even as he watched Demon King Su Qi leave, Chu Ming didn't stop him. Just as Su Qi couldn't deal with him, he couldn't do anything to Su Qi either.

"It seems that the Celestial Martial Continent is not peaceful right now!"

Chu Ming muttered in his heart. With the combat power of a Late Stage Top Tier King, he now had the ability to protect himself amidst the Human-Demon War.

Swoosh!

With a slight move, Chu Ming's body turned into a wisp of blue smoke, disappearing between heaven and earth. Currently, his speed surpassed a hundred times the speed of sound, reaching Yuanjiu City in the blink of an eye.

However, at this moment, Yuanjiu City was heavily guarded, with countless Sixth Level arrays surrounding it tightly. Martial artists needed to undergo strict scrutiny to enter.

Chu Ming did not conceal his presence. Like a firefly in the night sky, the entire Yuanjiu City sensed him the moment he arrived.

In a luxurious palace, the closed eyes of an elder in a black robe suddenly opened, piercing through time and space like terrifying rays of light.

"Could it be that demons are attacking?"

The elder took a deep breath and muttered, disappearing in an instant.

...

"A high-tier Life and Death Realm King?"

Chu Ming only scanned with his soul power and could clearly see the newcomer's combat strength.

Swoosh!

In an instant, an elder in a black robe tore out from the void, staring intently at Chu Ming. But when he saw his face clearly, his expression froze.

"Blood Sword King?!"

The black-robed elder looked like he'd seen a ghost. Rumors had it that the Blood Sword King had fallen, but here he stood, alive, with an endless flow of spiritual power within him, undoubtedly an invincible Life and Death Realm figure.

"It's me,"

Chu Ming nodded slightly. The title of Blood Sword King was given to him when he was a half-step Life and Death Realm King. Even though he had now become a true King, he didn't want to change it. After all, fame was an illusion; the most important thing was his actual strength.

"What's happening? Why is Yuanjiu City under lockdown?"

Chu Ming asked calmly. He felt the unusual atmosphere of Yuanjiu City as soon as he arrived, and even detected the lingering scent of blood in the sky.

"It's a long story. Let's go below and talk,"

The black-robed elder, Ghost Hand King, was a high-tier King. Knowing that Chu Ming had broken through to the Life and Death Realm, he didn't dare to act arrogantly. After all, geniuses like Chu Ming, once they break through, possess at least the combat power of a high-tier King, and their future potential was limitless.
