"Li Yi, what’s he doing here?" When everyone saw Li Yi appear, they were all taken aback, but soon after, a hint of delight emerged. After all, having been alarmed by such a powerful mythical creature, with Li Yi’s help, they could surely turn the tide of the battle. At this moment, Li Yi barely stepped into the Tri-Floral Realm. The crystalline, illusory Tao Flower above his head bloomed like a canopy, drawing in cosmic energy from all directions towards his location, and a five-colored light floated around. This gigantic Primordial Spirit Flower, although blooming for the first time, elevated Li Yi’s aura to a whole new height, far beyond before, with every move seeming to stir the heavens and earth. It was precisely this aura that made the newly awakened mythical creature Suan Ni feel an unprecedented crisis. "While you all are cultivating by leveraging the temporal power of this Mysterious Land, of course, I won’t miss out either. Lucky for me, after this secluded cultivation, I’ve finally gained some results. My current strength should match that of a Demon King, right?" Li Yi patted the dust off his body, then a confident smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. After years of hardship, today he finally entered the ranks of the top strong ones. If he gained the Power of Incense’s support, he’d be fully confident to enter the Demon God Realm alone, stirring up chaos there. Moreover, with the combat strength of a Demon King, other worlds would have to weigh the consequences before attempting to invade Earth again. Such a top expert’s threat is like a nuclear weapon; if you don’t have it, you’ll always be bullied because you can’t strike back, only being on the defensive. This is why, once Xiang Xiangzi, Xuan Yuezi, and Li Yi acquired Demon King combat strength, the True Immortals of Xuanxian Continent immediately thought of retreating, fearing the flames of war might engulf their world, or fear retribution. "Demon King level combat strength, huh?" Everyone was both shocked and delighted upon hearing Li Yi’s words. They all knew that earlier, Li Yi managed to slay a Demon King at the Earth Defense Line by leveraging various forces, for which Wang Chengjun and Li Weiguo both sacrificially gave up their cultivation. Unexpectedly, in just a few months, Li Yi made another breakthrough. Though it was with the help of temporal power, it was enough to prove Li Yi’s exceptional nature. After all, at this level, further progress is incredibly difficult. However, at this moment, the mythical creature Suan Ni was already growing impatient. Even though this person before it was indeed very dangerous, it was unwilling to sit idly by. Suddenly, a roar erupted. The terrifying power capable of causing mountains to collapse and the earth to crack was unleashed, seeking to disrupt the battlefield and then take the chance to escape. Everyone was stunned by this roar, their souls in pain, and a cloud of dust rose into the sky. And at this moment, Suan Ni’s massive body suddenly moved, racing across mountains and rivers at an extremely fast speed, aiming to charge into the depths of this Mysterious Land, either to return to its lair or seek some help there. "Thinking of leaving now? Too late." After Li Yi’s Primordial Spirit Flower bloomed, his perception of the surrounding world reached an astonishing level, allowing him to visualize the flowers, grass, trees, mountains, and rivers in his mind, even with his eyes closed. He could even perceive the fluttering wings of insects. No matter how fast Suan Ni was, it couldn’t outpace the perception of the primordial spirit. He disappeared from where he stood instantly. The sound of dragons and tigers shook the sky; a divine power that brought despair manifested at that moment, overpowering Suan Ni’s roar in an instant, the force so powerful that even this mythical creature couldn’t help but tremble. Li Yi had opened up 108 acupoints, but for the balance of the Five Elements, he sealed three acupoints, filling the mana of 105 acupoints. Plus, with the blooming of the Primordial Spirit Flower, he could mobilize the Heaven and Earth Power. This blow couldn’t be described merely as a few dragons’ or tigers’ power but as a piece of the sky collapsing. And Suan Ni seemed to realize it couldn’t evade Li Yi’s attack. It never intended to forcibly flee, but instead, it suddenly halted, its mighty body unleashing a genuine dragon’s power. This power was equally terrifying, crushing the ground as soon as it appeared, causing the entire Mysterious Land to tremble as if it couldn’t withstand such awe and was about to collapse. "Kneel down for me." Li Yi shouted, and a strike wrapped with a slice of heaven and earth bound it down. Suan Ni, about to struggle desperately, could no longer act ferociously. Despite the terrifying power it unleashed, it was instantly pulverized, its bronze-cast-like mighty body issuing a wail at that moment. This Suan Ni instantly fell to the ground, spewing large amounts of blood, its entire skeleton seemingly crushed, and even being a descendant of a True Dragon, it was difficult to stand again. Yet it was still alive, not dead, because the life force of this mythical creature was too tenacious. But seeing the devastation around him, Li Yi immediately realized that he might have been a bit too heavy-handed. Displaying the power of the Tri-Floral Realm for the first time, he wasn’t yet adept at controlling his strength. "This Suan Ni indeed possesses the strength of a Demon King, but it should be the weakest among them, far inferior to the Sky Moon Demon King and the Golden Feather Demon King of the past." After the residual power faded, he had a rough assessment of this critically injured Suan Ni. "To subdue this mythical creature in one strike, Li Yi was not wrong at all. He truly possesses the power of a Demon King," Long Jie exclaimed in awe from a distance, having retreated during the opportunity. "Even a Demon King may not match the current Li Yi. He seems to have stepped into an entirely new realm, and as far as I know, Li Yi dual cultivates Daoist skills, originating from a cultivation world," Zheng Duoduo remarked, having some understanding after meeting with cultivation experts. "It’s not just simple dual cultivation of Daoist skills. The power within Li Yi himself is terrifyingly strong. He must also be cultivating a method to strengthen his body, not to mention that he is an evolver, a genetic warrior... His foundation is incredibly solid, no wonder he could fight beyond his level before, but the price is that breaking through the boundary becomes very difficult." At this moment, a woman named Su Mu flew over, having recently undergone a spirit tribulation and significantly increased her strength. Yet, even so, facing the current Li Yi, she still felt her insignificance. But now everyone knew that Li Yi had successfully surpassed a major boundary, achieving a qualitative leap in strength. Even if a Demon King reappeared, a True Immortal would die instantly, let alone a mere Suan Ni. "Don’t resist, you can’t escape, and you can’t defeat me. Submit," Li Yi said to the Suan Ni. He knew that this mythical creature could understand him. Beings at this level possess high intelligence. The Suan Ni mourned, but the pride and stubbornness of the dragon offspring made it want to stand up despite its injuries, but in the end, it failed, lying helplessly on the ground, blood flowing, life fading.

After all, its strength is formidable, and if it could be used in future battles, it would be a top force," Su Mu suggested as she flew over. "I’d like to, but the Suan Ni is one of the dragon offspring. Just by looking, you can tell it’s naturally unyielding and difficult to tame. Letting it go and having it return for revenge is not a good idea either." Li Yi’s eyes flickered as he hesitated on how to handle it. Killing it seemed wasteful, taming it too difficult, and releasing it was impossible. It’s a pity Jiang Mingtian is not here, or he could try to handle it. Hearing this, Su Mu frowned, "If taming isn’t possible, then it must be killed because Earth can’t withstand the destruction of this mythical creature. This time you encountered it and defeated it, but once you leave across worlds, it will be hard for anyone to subdue it." "That’s true." Li Yi replied, understanding what a mythical creature with Demon King-level power entailed. Finally, he decided to kill and eat it. Though regrettable, there was no other choice. Li Yi then took out a long spear carved like beautiful jade, the Divine Jade Spear, which he had seized from the Golden Feather Demon King. Using this weapon to send the Suan Ni off was a form of respect. The Dragon and Tiger Power within him surged again. He aimed the Divine Jade Spear at the Suan Ni’s head and threw it. A brilliant beam of light shot through the air, instantly piercing the downed Suan Ni’s head. This mythical creature’s life came to an end. "For those who see, they share. Let’s divide and eat," Li Yi said to everyone, then once again wielded the Divine Jade Spear to dismember the Suan Ni and distribute the meat. "This... how can I accept this?" An evolver who received a large piece of Suan Ni meat was suddenly astonished. This meat can be considered a rare treasure, greatly beneficial for cultivation. However, Li Yi didn’t care about a few pieces of meat. After dissecting the Suan Ni’s body, he extracted a cyan-colored treasure bead from within, as tall as a person, emanating endless cosmic energy. "Is this an inner core?" Li Yi, who hadn’t read much, didn’t recognize it. "It’s not an inner core. It’s a Dragon Ball, a complete miracle," Su Mu explained as she flew over to Li Yi. "Legend has it that True Dragons possess Dragon Balls within them. Although the Suan Ni isn’t a True Dragon, it is an offspring of a dragon, and at this level of cultivation, possessing a Dragon Ball isn’t surprising. It’s just that this Dragon Ball is exceptionally large." "A complete miracle Dragon Ball?" Li Yi was overjoyed. He needed a miracle to forge the Immortal Dao Battleship, and hunting a mythical creature had brought such a reward. But when the Golden Feather Demon King died, it didn’t leave behind a miracle. However, after the Sky Moon Demon King perished, it turned into a jade statue, which Li Yi destroyed to prevent any resurgence.
