Just as Max quietly remained seated atop the enormous castle while calmly observing the endless slaughter unfolding below him.

The battlefield only continued becoming increasingly brutal over time.

Participants continuously killed one another repeatedly while Killing Points shifted from person to person endlessly.

The weaker geniuses gradually began disappearing completely after exhausting all four lives while the stronger individuals continued growing increasingly dangerous.

At the same time, the number of surviving participants steadily decreased.

However, despite appearing relaxed outwardly, Max’s senses had never relaxed even slightly.

The Dimensional Sovereign Body continuously spread invisible perception throughout the surroundings while carefully observing everything nearby.

And eventually—

A faint smile slowly appeared across Max’s face afterward.

Then he lightly chuckled.

"How long do you three plan on hiding there?"

The moment those words left his mouth, the surrounding area immediately became silent once again.

Nothing happened.

No movement appeared anywhere nearby.

However, Max’s expression never changed in the slightest.

Instead, he simply continued looking calmly toward empty space nearby.

Several seconds passed afterward.

Then suddenly—

Buzz!!!

Space distorted faintly nearby.

The next moment, three figures slowly emerged out of nowhere.

All three possessed dark black skin and two demonic horns atop their heads.

Demons.

Terrifying demonic aura continuously leaked from their bodies while dense killing intent filled the surroundings instantly.

Meanwhile, after appearing, the three demons immediately looked toward Max with cold expressions.

Clearly, they never expected someone to notice them hiding there beforehand.

At the same time, Max’s eyes quietly narrowed slightly afterward while carefully observing the three demons.

Unlike the weaker demon he killed earlier, these three were clearly much stronger.

Much more dangerous.

One of the three demons slowly stepped forward afterward.

The demon possessed a massive body covered in dark black muscles while a gigantic crimson saber rested casually upon his shoulder. Dense demonic aura continuously leaked from his body while several scars covered portions of his face, giving him an especially savage appearance.

Meanwhile, the demon calmly looked toward Max before speaking.

"We saw everything earlier," he said with a cold grin. "The way you dealt with Jong was honestly quite impressive."

A faint dangerous light flashed within his crimson eyes afterward.

"Although that fool was not our friend, he was still a member of the Demon Race."

The demon slowly pointed the gigantic saber toward Max afterward.

"And more importantly..."

A greedy smile gradually spread across his face.

"He left quite a few Killing Points on you before dying."

The other two demons nearby also released faint killing intent afterward while quietly surrounding Max from different directions.

However, Max himself remained completely calm.

Instead, he simply looked toward the three demons casually before replying,

"If you wanted to fight, then you should have simply attacked directly."

A faint mocking smile slowly appeared across his face afterward.

"Why bother hiding in the shadows like cowards?"

The moment those words entered their ears, the surrounding demonic aura instantly became colder.

However, instead of becoming angry, the saber-wielding demon simply laughed.

"Hahaha..."

His laughter sounded rough and dangerous.

"We may be demons, but that does not mean we are idiots."

The demon’s crimson eyes narrowed afterward while staring directly toward Max.

"We already saw how easily you killed Jong repeatedly."

The atmosphere around the three demons gradually became increasingly dangerous afterward.

"A peak Law Awakening Realm cultivator capable of casually slaughtering someone like Jong is obviously not normal."

The demon then slowly grinned afterward.

"So naturally, we decided using a more careful approach would be better."

The moment those words fell—

Buzz!!!

The bodies of all three demons suddenly blurred strangely.

Then, before Max could even blink properly, the three demons completely disappeared from sight once again as though they had never existed there at all.

"Invisibility?" Max muttered softly while slightly raising his brows.

However, only a moment later, he slowly shook his head.

"No..."

A faint smile gradually appeared across his face afterward.

"This is merely camouflage."

The moment those words left his mouth, Max suddenly moved his right hand sideways casually.

Bang!!!

A violent explosion instantly erupted nearby.

One of the hidden demons, who had been silently approaching Max from the side while concealed beneath the camouflage ability, was directly blasted away violently before he could even properly react.

The demon’s body smashed across the top of the castle while his camouflage immediately shattered apart completely.

At that moment, shock clearly filled the demon’s crimson eyes.

Meanwhile, before the injured demon could stabilize himself, another demon still hidden beneath the camouflage suddenly attacked from the front.

Boom!!!

A gigantic battle axe tore through the air violently while terrifying demonic aura exploded outward.

The enormous weapon descended directly toward Max’s shoulder with enough force to split apart mountains.

However—

Max never moved.

He simply remained standing there calmly.

Then the battle axe slammed directly onto his shoulder.

Clang!!!

A metallic collision sound echoed throughout the surroundings instantly.

The demon’s expression immediately froze afterward.

Because the terrifying battle axe failed to even leave a scratch upon Max’s skin.

The axe stopped completely against his body as though it had struck an indestructible divine metal wall.

At that moment, the demon’s shocked voice echoed throughout the surroundings.

"How is this possible?!"

Meanwhile, Max slowly turned his head toward the demon afterward.

A faint smile appeared across his face.

Then—

Boom!!!

Star-like light instantly condensed around Max’s fist.

The next moment, Max directly unleashed the Star Fist Divine Ability toward the demon standing before him.

Terrifying stellar force exploded outward instantly.

The surrounding space distorted violently from the sheer power released by the punch.

The demon did not even possess the slightest chance to escape.

Boom!!!

His entire body exploded apart instantly into countless golden fragments before disappearing completely from the battlefield.

At that moment, the final remaining demon finally revealed himself completely.

Buzz!!!

The camouflage surrounding his body gradually disappeared while dense demonic aura erupted outward violently.

The gigantic demon slowly stepped forward afterward while the enormous crimson saber resting upon his back radiated terrifying killing intent continuously.

However, unlike earlier, the demon’s expression now looked extremely dark.

Clearly, after witnessing Max casually destroy the other two demons, even he no longer remained calm.

Meanwhile, the demon stared directly toward Max before speaking coldly,

"You can actually see through our concealment?"

His crimson eyes narrowed dangerously afterward.

Meanwhile, Max simply looked toward him calmly before replying casually,

"It is merely a trash camouflage technique."

A faint mocking smile gradually appeared across his face afterward.

"Even if the three of you truly possessed invisibility abilities..."

His eyes slowly sharpened slightly.

"I still would have found you easily."

The moment those words entered the demon’s ears, terrifying rage instantly exploded from his body.

Boom!!!

Violent demonic aura surged wildly throughout the surroundings while killing intent filled the top of the castle completely.

"You arrogant human!"

The demon roared furiously afterward.

The next instant, he directly pulled out the gigantic crimson saber from his back.
