“I only have 100 contribution coins left. I have to continue doing missions.”
Li Fuchen smiled bitterly. He originally planned to accumulate the contribution coins to exchange for the second half of the Vicious Dragon Fist or the Cloud Flame Thousand Incineration. But he still couldn’t hold back from spending all of them.
But Li Fuchen didn’t regret it. His body refinement strength was more than twice as strong as the previous time he visited the Demon Ring Continent. He could simply rely on his body refinement to contest with the white demon. If he executed his Vicious Dragon Fist, he was confident he could smash the white demon with a single fist.
This time, Li Fuchen was preparing to explore the Demon Ring Continent alone and to carry out the mission along the way.
His trump cards were a secret and he was only able to use all of them without hesitation when he was alone.
Arriving at the teleportation plaza, Li Fuchen headed to the Demon Ring Continent again.
It had been over one month since the previous trip. Even if the Ancient Demon Tree could move, it probably didn’t move too much.
Swish!
There was a flash of radiance and Li Fuchen arrived at the Demon Ring Continent’s fifth ring.
Following his memory, Li Fuchen headed towards a location in the third ring.
“As expected, it isn’t here.”
While looking at the empty spot where the Ancient Demon Tree was previously at, Li Fuchen frowned and scanned the surroundings with his awareness.
Soon enough, Li Fuchen captured a trace of the Ancient Demon Tree’s qi presence.
His awareness was comparable to Primary Sea Realm monarchs. This trace of qi presence might be able to hide from the most powerful Battle Spirit Realm masters, but it couldn’t hide from him.
Swish!
Following the qi presence, Li Fuchen’s speed increased.
“It is this human again. Kill him.”
From a distance a group of demons that numbered 10,000 had discovered Li Fuchen. There was a scarlet demon that roared with rage and it was that Great Scarlet Demon that protected the Ancient Demon Tree back then.
Apart from the Scarlet Great Demon, the white demon was also there.
Other than these two demons, there was an even stronger demon. This demon was covered with blood scales and was very similar to the Blood Devil King back at the East Unicorn Continent.
“Is that the human that defeated the two of you?” The blood-scaled demon asked in a deep and sinister voice.
“Lord Blood General. It is him.” The scarlet demon nodded.
The Demon Ring Continent was a place with a strict hierarchy on status. The class 5 demons might all be class 5 but there were minute differences. Those at the bottom were normal class 5 demons, above them were the elite class 5 demons, further up would be the Great Demons. The scarlet demon and the white demon were both Great Demons, but there was another rank higher than the Great Demons.
In terms of strength, normal class 5 demons should be corresponding to 9th level Reincarnation Realm experts who cultivated mystic class peak-tier cultivation techniques.
The elite class 5 demons should correspond with 9th level Reincarnation Realm experts who cultivated earth class low-tier cultivation techniques.
The Great Demons would correspond to the 9th level Reincarnation Realm experts who cultivated earth class mid-tier cultivation techniques.
Above the Great Demons, there was the stronger Demon General.
Demon Generals were normally used to address class 6 demons but the Demon Ring Continent didn’t have class 6 demons. As such, those heaven-defying class 5 demons would be considered as Demon Generals.
Demon Generals had the strength of low-level Battle Spirit Realm masters. They would normally be active in the first ring but after knowing a powerful human had visited the Demon Ring Continent, he came to the third ring and planned to capture the human alive to devour the human’s essence blood.
“Blood Demon? I wonder how pure his bloodline is and how different it is from pure-blooded Blood Demons.” Li Fuchen raised his brows.
There were pure-blooded demons and those that didn’t have pure blood.
Pure-blooded Blood Demons would have a growth limit of Demon Emperors and were considered the emperor race among the Blood Demons.
The East Unicorn Continent’s Blood Devil King was only a regular Blood Demon and his bloodline purity was inferior to this blood-scaled demon.
Of course, even if this was a pure-blooded Blood Demon, without any fated opportunities, it would be hard to reach the growth limit, let alone for Blood Demon that weren’t pure-blooded.
“Good timing. My Vicious Dragon Fist is at the completion stage and my body refinement had a great improvement. I am just lacking a formidable foe.”
Li Fuchen was eager to fight as qi prowess burst out of his body.
“Kill!”
The scarlet demon and the white demon took the lead and charged at Li Fuchen with thousands of demons.
The scarlet demon was from the Fire Demon race while the white demon was from the Bone Demon race. The former had an inferior growth potential but was still a Great Demon, while the latter was a Bone Demon and pure-blooded Bone Demons had the growth limit of Demon Emperor and was the same as Blood Demons. Hence, as a Great Demon, the white demon was clearly stronger than the scarlet demon. The duo positioned themselves at two sides and launched a pincer assault at Li Fuchen.
As for the other class 5 demons and class 4 demons, they would either be rapidly approaching Li Fuchen or attacking from far away. The scene was extremely terrifying.
“Emerging Vicious Dragon!”
There was a giant elephant trumpet and the vicious dragon roar.
The giant elephant spirit and the vicious dragon spirit rose at the same time.\
As Li Fuchen executed his fist, the vicious dragon spirit was like a demon dragon that was going to exterminate the world.
Bang Bang Bang Bang…
Hundreds to a thousand demons were blasted into blood mists by a single fist. Even the scarlet demon and the white demon couldn’t resist Li Fuchen’s fis force. Wounds split open on their body while fresh blood splattered.
“Die!”
Li Fuchen executed another fist and ravaged with the horrific vicious dragon spirit. He had finally shattered the scarlet demon and the white demon into pieces, resulting in their miserable deaths.
“If it is a solo fight, I should be able to kill the white demon in a single fist.” Li Fuchen was roughly able to gauge the strength of his fist.
“What?” The blood-scaled demon was astonished.
It was fine for the scarlet demon to be killed, but the white demon was a pinnacle existence even among the Great Demons. Even the blood-scaled demon wouldn’t be able to kill the white demon in such a short period of time. This human’s strength wasn’t just slightly superior to the white demon.
Could it be that the human had improved so much in just a little more than one month?
“Blood Spear!”
The blood-scaled demon took a deep breath while blood light surged in its hand, producing a blood-colored spear.
The blood-colored spear was emitting blood-colored electric arcs and was extremely fearsome.
Swish!
There was a flash of blood light as the blood-scaled demon launched the blood-colored spear out.
In the face of the blood spear that was approaching rapidly, Li Fuchen executed a punch to shatter the blood spear.
“Blood Armor!”
The blood-scaled demon let out a roar. There was a surge of blood light and a set of blood-colored armor appeared on its body. In the next moment, the blood-scaled demon charged towards Li Fuchen.
Boom Boom Boom!
The duo matched fist with fist and had exchanged eight moves in just a split second.
Pfff!
At the ninth fist, the blood-scaled demon was no longer able to resist Li Fuchen’s fist force and vomited a mouthful of blood.
Li Fuchen wasn’t going to spare any mercy as his fist struck at the chest of the blood-scaled demon.
The blood armor caved in and the powerful force had sent the blood-scaled demon flying.
“Where are you going?”
Li Fuchen pursued and struck another fist through the air to shatter the blood armor, causing a blood mist to scatter.
“Flee.” The blood-scaled demon knew it wasn’t a match for Li Fuchen and escaped frantically.
After blasting out another seven to eight fists, Li Fuchen didn’t pursue anymore.
His only shortcoming was his movement speed. After all, movement speed was related to cultivation level and Li Fuchen’s weakest factor was his cultivation level.
His body refinement wasn’t weak but the body refinement was far inferior to qi cultivation in terms of movement speed.
After killing a thousand demons with two fists and repelling the Blood General, the other demons didn’t dare to remain here. In just a moment, 10,000 demons had vanished without a trace.
Following the qi presence, Li Fuchen continued to track down the Ancient Demon Tree.
Half a day later, Li Fuchen found that Ancient Demon Tree.
The Ancient Demon Tree was obviously able to recognize Li Fuchen’s qi presence too. When it saw Li Fuchen arriving, dozens of Ancient Demon Fruits had withered and all the energy gathered at the thicker and sturdier branch which then lashed at Li Fuchen.
Li Fuchen grinned and blasted a fist in return.
There was a horrific qi wave explosion. Li Fuchen remained in place while the Ancient Demon Tree’s branch exploded.
With breakneck speed, Li Fuchen took eight Ancient Demon Fruits.
The Ancient Demon Tree was enraged. This time, close to 100 Ancient Demon Fruits had withered and all the energy gathered at the other thick branch that was closer to Li Fuchen.
“It is such a waste. If you have given me 100 Ancient Demon Fruits. I might already be leaving.”
Li Fuchen felt it was a great pity as this Ancient Demon Tree had an inflexible mind. It was willing to forsake the Ancient Demon Fruits just to contest with him. Did it not know that Li Fuchen was simply here for the Ancient Demon Fruits?
A man and a tree started an intense battle.
During the battle, Li Fuchen would pick the Ancient Demon Fruits when there were opportunities.
The earth and mountains shook as the roots under the Ancient Demon Tree had emerged. It looked like countless legs as the Ancient Demon Tree approached Li Fuchen at high speed.
Li Fuchen was dumbstruck. He didn’t expect for the Ancient Demon Tree to move like this.
Li Fuchen didn’t allow the Ancient Demon Tree to get closer to him.
The Ancient Demon Tree had a massive body and once it got near to him, he would face pressure that would be hundred times as intense. When countless branches assaulted frenziedly, even the most powerful Battle Spirit Realm master would be defeated, let alone Li Fuchen.
After retreating, Li Fuchen started to roam at the edge of the Ancient Demon Tree’s range.
It was fortunate that the Ancient Demon Tree wasn’t considered fast, otherwise, Li Fuchen would only have the choice to flee in a sorry state.
After over 100 Ancient Demon Fruits were picked, the Ancient Demon Tree’s lacking intelligence finally understood that it wasn’t able to deal with Li Fuchen.
Its instincts told it that it had to get away from Li Fuchen.
As the pursuit continued, a few days later, they arrived at the second ring.
In the distant horizon, three streams of light were flying towards Li Fuchen. After spotting Li Fuchen, they flew faster and arrived in front of Li Fuchen in the blink of the eye. There were three demons with fearsome qi presence and one of them was the blood-scaled demon.
“This human is stronger than me. Let’s work together and kill him.”
The blood-scaled demon brought two other Demon Generals and rushed over.
“Would three be enough?” Li Fuchen sneered and didn’t even try to escape as he immediately confronted them.
The two other Demon Generals consisted of a Winged Demon with wings on its back and a powerful Power Demon.
The three Demon Generals started a battle with Li Fuchen.
The Winged Demon was extremely fast and was circling around Li Fuchen and attacking him like a shadow.
The Power Demon had a tough body and had suffered minor injuries after receiving a fist from Li Fuchen.
The blood-scaled demon used its innate ability to attack Li Fuchen from a long range using the blood spears.
The Ancient Demon Tree stopped fleeing. Using its feeble intelligence, it knew that it should support the three Demon Generals and was constantly lashing at Li Fuchen with its branches.
After releasing the giant elephant spirit and the vicious dragon spirit, Li Fuchen repelled both the Winged Demon and the Power Demon. He then used a single fist to send the blood-scaled demon flying. Seeing an opportunity, Li Fuchen grabbed onto one of the Ancient Demon Tree’s branches and pulled the entire branch off. There were over 30 Ancient Demon Fruits on the branch.
“How can this human be so formidable?” The Winged Demon was bewildered.
“I reckon that only the top ten Demon Generals can rival him.” The blood-scaled demon was enraged.
In the first ring, it was only an ordinary Demon General and so were the two other Demon Generals.
During normal times, he would never leave the first ring as the first ring had the best environment for cultivation and was also the place that could allow class 5 demons to evolve into class 6 demons.
“Winged Demon General. Go and call for more Demon Generals.” The blood-scaled demon transmitted a message to the Winged Demon secretly.
Among the trio, the Winged Demon was the fastest.
“Okay.” The Winged Demon turned and flapped its flesh wings before rushing into the sky.
