Even Knox, hanging from the cave ceiling, couldn’t help but be shocked by the terrifying aura radiating from the Giant Demons, causing his entire body to tremble non-stop.

After a moment of panic and terror, a thought suddenly struck Knox, and an excited smile curled at the corners of his mouth.

"Good, excellent! I didn’t expect the Nether Earth Ghost King to actually hold such a powerful trump card! It seems I might still have a chance to survive today!"

Just moments ago, seeing the Nether Earth Ghost King heavily injured by Alex, Knox had felt despair.

If the Nether Earth Ghost King was killed and he fell into Alex’s hands, it would definitely be a fate worse than death.

But now, with the appearance of the five Giant Demons and the Nether Earth Ghost King’s desperate counterattack, even Alex would inevitably find it hard to parry.

Whether it was Alex or the Nether Earth Ghost King, whoever killed the other would turn around and kill him next.

Only if these two abnormal powerhouses mutually wounded each other, or even perished together, would he have a chance to survive.

Although this chance seemed extremely slim, almost like a fantasy tale, Knox had already grabbed onto it as his lifesaving straw, praying silently and desperately.

Given the current situation, this was indeed his only chance.

And Knox had always placed great trust in his own luck, firmly believing he was the Son of Destiny chosen by fortune.

Whenever he encountered danger, his luck would explode off the charts, allowing him to turn ill luck into good. This time would definitely be the same.

Meanwhile, after snapping back to his senses, Alex appeared incredibly composed, a chilling smile curling at the corners of his mouth.

"A species that should have already gone extinct suddenly springing back to life like a corpse indeed caught me by surprise. However, to think you can take my life relying on these ancient, obsolete relics, aren’t you being a bit too arrogant?"

"Oh, I almost forgot. You yourself are nothing more than an ancient relic who should be buried in a coffin."

As he spoke, Alex grasped the Vault of Divine Magatama in his palm and shouted sternly. "Vault of Divine Magatama, Drive!"

Streaks of golden light burst forth, and thousands of sword jades instantly surfaced from the light, clustering around Alex like a multitude of stars revolving around the moon.

"Five Dao Jade Vortex!" Alex narrowed his eyes slightly and unleashed a palm strike brimming with murderous intent.

The thousands of golden sword jades instantly converged into five streams of jade, launching a fierce bombardment against the five Giant Demons charging at him.

Although historical records stated that the defensive power of the black fur on the Giant Demon Race was astonishing, impervious to swords and spears, immune to water and fire, truly an absolute defense, that was relative to the primitive humans of that era who were still in the Stone Age.

If the Giant Demon Race truly had an indestructible defense, how could they have perished in that meteor shower?

Whether the falling meteors of the past or the Saint-tier Vault of Divine Magatama was stronger in power remained unknown.

But at this very moment, under the bombardment of the Five Dao Jade Vortex, the Giant Demons couldn’t advance a single inch, letting out miserable shrill screams one after another.

A moment later, the sword jades had all been completely fired.

And the fur on the five Giant Demons had been almost entirely obliterated.

Their massive bloody bodies were covered in densely packed golden light holes, enough to make one’s scalp tingle.

The five Giant Demons swayed unsteadily, completely unable to move an inch.

Alex smiled faintly, unhurriedly spreading his five fingers. However, just as he was preparing to finish them off, a trace of suspicion flashed through his eyes.

These Supreme Realm Giant Demons should have been the Nether Earth Ghost King’s strongest trump card.

Yet right now, the Nether Earth Ghost King’s face showed not the slightest panic or despair. Instead, he was narrowing his eyes, a mocking sneer all over his face, looking as if the good show had only just begun.

Thinking about it carefully, although this Giant Demon Race had an illustrious reputation and had once dominated the Azure Origin Continent for hundreds of thousands of years, in the current era they were merely five clumsy, hulking idiots. For ordinary people, they were indeed terrifying killing machines.

But for someone like Alex, they posed absolutely no threat, their reputation just somewhat bluffing.

Were they really worthy of being the Nether Earth Ghost King’s trump card, saved until a matter of life and death?

These thoughts flashed through Alex’s mind in a brief instant. But the next second, his five fingers still abruptly closed into a fist. "Vault of Divine Annihilation!"

The thousands of sword jades embedded within the Giant Demons were instantly detonated.

Their bodies underwent a violent secondary explosion from within, even fiercer than the initial bombardment.

When the explosion ended, all five uniformly collapsed to their knees with a heavy thud. Their burly bodies had been blown apart looking like honeycomb briquettes. Pitch-black, foul-smelling blood flowed out from the holes, pooling everywhere on the ground. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Alex let out a slight breath of turbid air. "Nether Earth Ghost King, this is the trump card you claimed would kill me? To spout such wild words, only to not even manage to entertain me, it is truly too ugly."

However, facing Alex’s mockery, the Nether Earth Ghost King’s expression didn’t change in the slightest. He still wore a playful, mocking smile, looking at Alex as if looking at a plaything firmly within his grasp.

"Heh, if the strongest trump card this King intends to use to dominate the world was so simply destroyed by you, then why would this King bother to bitterly endure for tens of thousands of years in this putrid, gloomy Hundred Ghost Mountain Range filled with poisonous miasma?"
