Chapter 604. A Supreme Bearing, Instant Slaughter

Lu Yuan emerged from the passage, his surging vital qi scattering the black mist. Everyone present could sense its immense power.

Zhu Qingyu and the others retreated slightly. As Lu Yuan had told them before they set out, they likely would not need to act. They had come to see what kind of enemy awaited them. Once they had seen it for themselves, they would no longer have to fear the unknown.

Even so, the appearance of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons shocked them. They looked no different from humans. Were it not for their auras, no one would have taken them for invaders from another cosmos.

Jiang Ningxian had seen such beings before, so their appearance did not surprise her. She merely furrowed her brows.

The thirteen Extracosmic Heavenly Demons before her seemed stronger than those she had encountered before. Each radiated a dangerous power. She would be no match for them alone; they could defeat her with ease.

Moreover, Jiang Ningxian knew that the power of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons inherently suppressed the laws and power of this world.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan was here. His current strength far surpassed what it had been before, so if the two sides fought, she had little reason to worry.

"You scattered the power surrounding us with your strength alone. Not bad. Why didn't we detect your existence before?"

One Extracosmic Heavenly Demon looked at Lu Yuan in confusion. He could sense a faint hint of danger from this human, something he had never experienced before.

Even so, he felt no fear.

Any member of the Forsaken Heaven Clan who survived long enough to reach Heaven Rank had endured countless life-and-death battles. This was especially true of pure-blooded clansmen like them.

Lu Yuan gave them a sense of danger, but no more than that. Only a battle would reveal the truth, and none of them was afraid.

"Are you the only ones who descended to Earth?" Lu Yuan paid no attention to what they were thinking.

He released his divine sense and discovered that Mount Hulong was the only place on Earth where such beings had appeared. The altars elsewhere remained unchanged. For now, he only needed to deal with the thirteen before him.

"Oh? It seems you were hoping for more."

One Extracosmic Heavenly Demon's eyes narrowed, his gaze turning cold.

They really resembled humans. Their auras were the only clear difference, along with the unmistakable strange power surrounding them.

The thirteen Extracosmic Heavenly Demons regarded Lu Yuan with cold eyes and open killing intent.

In their view, Lu Yuan was interesting enough to watch a little longer. Of course, they still intended to kill him in the end. For now, they merely wanted to toy with him.

However, Lu Yuan had no interest in playing along. Their words had confirmed that the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons had not yet descended in full force. A faint smile twinkled in his eyes.

"Good. In that case, things are much simpler. I only need to destroy all of you, and this will be over."

He spoke as calmly as though he were describing something utterly ordinary. Those words thoroughly enraged the thirteen Extracosmic Heavenly Demons present.

Whether in the Forsaken Heaven Cosmos or elsewhere, they stood above countless others and controlled life and death. No one dared offend them. They were gods in all but name. Yet someone now dared speak to them this way, and all thirteen Extracosmic Heavenly Demons flew into a rage.

"You've got courage. I admire that. I only wonder whether you have the strength to back up those words," one Extracosmic Heavenly Demon said, clearly angered.

Their purpose in descending was to conquer this universe. Yet as soon as they emerged, someone provoked them with words. They could not endure it.

He stepped forward without hesitation. Extracosmic Heavenly Demons wasted no words once killing intent arose. They simply attacked.

A powerful aura surged out as endless mist appeared, covering the sky and blotting out the sun. The force was immense, enough to shake the mountains and rivers.

Opposite him, both Zhu Qingyu and Jiang Ningxian felt an intense pressure.

The gap in strength was so vast that the demon's aura alone placed them under astonishing pressure. Lu Yuan's vital qi surged and swept it away.

Then Lu Yuan stepped out without hesitation.

The two sides collided, and the surrounding landscape fractured beneath the force.

The region had been transformed by the power of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons, allowing it to withstand the impact.

The other twelve Extracosmic Heavenly Demons watched without joining the battle. They wanted to see just how strong Lu Yuan was and what had given him the courage to speak those words.

Their interest vanished in the next instant as terrifying power erupted from Lu Yuan.

Endless divine light shrouded him, swallowing even the Extracosmic Heavenly Demon who had attacked. A crushing force erupted a heartbeat later.

Pfft!

Cracks spread across the Extracosmic Heavenly Demon. None of his methods could save him, and he exploded into a cloud of black blood mist. Lu Yuan followed up at once, invoking the Celestial Seat laws to erase him completely.

The Extracosmic Heavenly Demon vanished along with his aura and soul, as though he had never existed. Everything happened in an instant, so quickly that no one had time to react.
