Chapter 657: Chapter 289: Fighting Alone Across Three Thousand Miles (Part 3)

"No—!" Rong Kui let out a despairing howl, and in the next moment, his forehead was pierced by Xu Guang’s finger, annihilating his Divine Soul.

After slaying Rong Kui, Xu Guang didn’t hesitate, sweeping his corpse into the Reincarnation Millstone. He pondered for a moment, then looked at the wall behind Rong Kui’s demon palace and left a message with his hand.

"The killer is Xu Guang!"

Looking at his handiwork, Xu Guang smiled with satisfaction.

Instantly, his figure transformed into a blood shadow, rushing to the next target—the gathering place of the demon generals under the Demon King Xuan Gui!

They were all old acquaintances; it didn’t matter who he killed.

The demon generals under Demon King Xuan Gui were struck with misfortune. Within just a few days, Xu Guang tracked them down, slaughtering them to pieces and leaving rivers of blood.

Two days later.

Demon King Xuan Gui received the news, utterly enraged!

He rushed back from Dark Abyss City, his roar shaking the surrounding thousand miles of the Bewildering Sea.

Another two days passed, and the writings in Rong Kui’s palace were discovered, as were the words left at the death sites of the demon generals under Demon King Xuan Gui.

The news spread across the Bewildering Sea like a storm!

"A human! With First Nirvana Cultivation! Hunting demon kings and generals!"

"Rong Kui is dead! The great generals under the old demon Xuan Gui have almost all been slaughtered!"

"It’s that Xu Guang, for whom the Dragon Race has set a bounty! He’s gone mad!"

"His body technique is uncanny, incredibly fast, and with that terrifying flame and true intent of slaughter—no one in the First Nirvana Realm can stop him!"

Dark Abyss City was furious. Several Second Nirvana demon kings joined forces, setting a Heaven and Earth Net, vowing to capture and kill Xu Guang.

However, Xu Guang, possessing the Mirage Wings, was unparalleled in speed among First Nirvana, never confronting the Second Nirvana demon kings head-on.

He leveraged the complex terrain of the Bewildering Sea, shuttling back and forth through the Land of the Four Extremes.

Whenever he sensed the powerful aura of a Second Nirvana approaching, he immediately activated the Mirage Wings, transforming into a seven-colored stream of light that nearly surpassed the limits of visual capture, fleeing a thousand miles away.

He executed guerilla warfare to the extreme, causing chaos throughout the Bewildering Sea, leaving people in panic.

The Second Nirvana demon kings pursuing him often couldn’t even catch a glimpse of his shadow, and instead, Xu Guang would often find their lairs, slaying their capable generals, leaving them furious yet helpless.

Xu Guang’s name became a nightmare for all First Nirvana demons in the Bewildering Sea.

"This person is provoking our Dark Abyss City; he must not be spared."

"His magical treasure cannot be used indefinitely; it already has cracks. Keep pursuing, we refuse to believe he can escape." 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Deep within Dark Abyss City, a terrifying voice echoed.

...

In front of a relatively spacious cave, transformed from a giant beast’s skull, hung a sign carved from strike wood, bearing the crooked words "Thunder Light Pavilion."

Threads of blue electric serpents roamed the sign, showcasing the owner’s extraordinary nature.

This was the shop of Lei Kun.

Lei Kun was an electric eel demon who had achieved cultivation. With First Nirvana Cultivation, he relied on his talent for manipulating thunder and his ruthless tactics to gain some fame in the lower regions of Dark Abyss City.

His shop mainly dealt in some plundered magic artifacts and materials, occasionally engaging in some unspeakable "live goods" trade.

At this moment, Lei Kun had transformed into the appearance of a tall and thin middle-aged man with fine blue scales remaining on his cheeks, dressed in a seemingly luxurious robe that clashed with the surrounding environment, sitting contentedly on a chair made from a polished giant clam shell.

In front of him stood several bowing and scraping little demons.

"Demon King Grandpa, that Xu Guang has recently turned the Bewildering Sea upside down, taking advantage of this, should we pause our business for a while?"

"You coward, Xu Guang only relies on his magical treasure. If he dares to appear in front of me, I’ll make sure he has no return!"

The little demons heard this and looked at Lei Kun with admiration.

"Demon King Grandpa’s Thunder Skill is unmatched in the world!"

Lei Kun nodded with satisfaction.

Indeed, he was proud. His bloodline was extraordinary, and back when he transformed into a demon in the Void Realm, he had encountered significant opportunities. His divine techniques were astonishing, deadly, and powerful, with few First Nirvana demons worthy of his attention.

"According to the plan, take advantage of Xu Guang causing trouble, go find me something from the human territories."

"Demon King Grandpa, those humans really hid a lot of good stuff; you have no idea, what we got this time is truly amazing!"

A little demon with a shrimp head said ingratiatingly, waving its shrimp pincers excitedly.

"Especially those female cultivators of the Human Race, with their skin smooth and tender, and their Source Qi incredibly pure, they are sure to sell for a high price!"

Another demon soldier, shaped like a catfish with a long beard, chuckled.

"Indeed, I heard it was caught from a damaged mirage boat on the edge of the Bewildering Sea. Young and beautiful, those big figures will definitely love it."

Lei Kun, enjoying his subordinates’ flattery, leisurely sipped a glass of a crimson, viscous liquid, "blood wine," brewed from the essence blood of a certain sea beast.

His narrow eyes flashed with a hint of pride and cruelty.

"Hmph, they’re just pitiful strays from the outside world. Being my merchandise to exchange for resources is their fortune. Take good care of them, when the ’Sea Market’ opens, there will naturally be discerning buyers."

He paused, a lascivious smile appearing on his face.

"However, before selling them, we can ’inspect’ the goods well to see how these humans from the outside compare to the surviving human slaves in the Bewildering Sea..."

As soon as he finished speaking, an indescribable coldness descended.

It wasn’t a chill in temperature, but a murderous intent penetrating to the bone, freezing the Divine Soul.

The flickering phosphorescent light in the cave froze instantly, the noisy little demons were as if their throats were grabbed, their voices abruptly stopped, leaving flattery or lecherous expressions frozen on their faces, their eyes filled with fear.

Lei Kun abruptly stood up from the clam-shell chair, his robe fluttering without wind, crackling blue electric light erupted all around him, illuminating his face in shades of light and dark.

He sensed an extremely dangerous aura locking onto him, as if he had been targeted by a top predator in the dark currents.

"Who?!" he shouted sharply, his Divine Thought surged out of the cave like a tide.
