Blood and Qi surged within his body, and a sweet taste rose in his throat; he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood with a "Puff"!

He steadied his figure, clutched his stifled chest, and looked at Xiao Qing with eyes full of disbelief and horror!

"You... your physical body... how could it be so terrifying?!"

Fan Lao's voice trembled slightly.

He felt that the palm strike just now didn't feel like hitting a person, but rather like striking an immovable piece of divine iron from the ancient past!

The rebounding force shook his Dou Qi until it was somewhat chaotic.

At this moment, a strong sense of regret and desire to retreat finally rose in Fan Lao's heart.

This kid is too weird!

It feels like he grew up eating stones; his physique is so sturdy that it simply cannot be measured by common sense!

If this continues, I'm afraid...

Xiao Qing shook his wrist, feeling the subtle feedback from the collision of that punch, and gained a clearer understanding of his physical body strength.

He looked at Fan Lao, who was showing signs of wanting to retreat, and a cold smile curled at the corners of his mouth.

Thinking of running away now?

Unfortunately, it is already too late!

With a thought from Xiao Qing, the aura around his body instantly began to change drastically!

The original crimson-gold aura retracted in an instant, replaced by a dark, gloomy golden radiance!

Even his hair, eyebrows, and pupils transformed completely into a dark gold color in an instant!

A terrifying aura that seemed capable of devouring everything and annihilating all things exploded completely from Xiao Qing at this moment!

Devouring Law Form!

The dark golden aura soared into the sky, and a powerful Devouring Domain spread out.

The surrounding light seemed to be devoured and disappeared by that invisible force.

Fan Lao's expression changed wildly!

He felt that the blood-colored Dou Qi around his body, the moment this dark golden Domain appeared, actually began to dissipate, uncontrolled by him!

It was as if it were being forcibly pulled and devoured by some invisible force!

Even the Dou Qi inside his body showed faint signs of wanting to break out of his body!

"This... what the hell is this?!"

Fan Lao shouted in horror.

He desperately tried to circulate his Dou Qi to resist that Devouring Power, but found that his pride-and-joy special blood-attribute Dou Qi was like encountering a natural enemy in front of this force; the effect was minimal!

"It's over!"

Xiao Qing's cold voice, like the judgment of the Grim Reaper, rang in Fan Lao's ears.

The dark golden figure, like a ghost, instantly crossed the distance between them and appeared in front of Fan Lao.

A dark golden palm, radiating rich Devouring Power, ignored the layers of blood-colored defenses Fan Lao had set up.

Like piercing through layers of thin paper, it accurately covered the location of his Sea of Dou Qi!

"No!!!"

Fan Lao let out a desperate and unwilling roar; he could clearly feel it.

The Dou Qi he had painstakingly cultivated for many years was being crazily devoured and extracted by that palm!

His body withered at a speed visible to the naked eye, his skin lost its luster, and his eyes quickly dimmed.

In just two or three breaths, a Two-Star Dou Huang expert, like a corpse dried by the wind for thousands of years, completely lost all vitality and fell powerlessly from mid-air.

The Law of Devouring is so terrifying!

The Elder of the Earth Flame Sect, having witnessed with his own eyes Fan Lao being drained in such a bizarre and terrifying way, was already scared to the point of soul scattered and spirit dissipated; how could he have any greed left?

He let out a strange cry, turned around, pushed his speed to the limit, and fled desperately into the depths of the wasteland!

Xiao Qing didn't even look back at him; he just moved his mind slightly.

An invisible soul Power, condensed to the extreme, crossed space, instantly caught up to the fleeing Earth Flame Sect Elder, and submerged into his Sea of Consciousness.

"Ah!"

The Earth Flame Sect Elder let out a short, shrill scream.

His fleeing figure stiffened suddenly, and he fell straight down from mid-air, crashing onto the ground, never to make a sound again.

His soul had been completely erased!

Meanwhile, the group of men in black, who had been hiding in the shadows, saw Fan Lao and the Earth Flame Sect Elder die one after another.

Especially Xiao Qing's bizarre devouring method, which made them feel great danger.

The leader of the men in black, whose aura reached the level of a Nine-Star Dou Wang, took a deep look at Xiao Qing, made a swift decision, and shouted in a low voice: "Retreat!"

Hearing this, the other men in black began to blur, preparing to escape using the shadows.

"Come when you want, leave when you want?"

Xiao Qing's cold gaze swept over the black-clad leader who was about to disappear.

"Since you've come, leave your things behind."

While in the 【Devouring Law Form】, he slowly raised his right hand.

He slightly curled his five fingers towards the direction where the black-clad leader was about to completely merge into the shadows.

A terrifying Devouring Power instantly crossed space and acted upon the body of the black-clad leader!

"Ugh, ah!"

The black-clad leader felt as if the space around him had solidified, and an irresistible giant force came crushing in from all directions!

He discovered with horror that his famous shadow-escape technique had actually failed!

He wanted to struggle, but the power was too overbearing; his protective Dou Qi was instantly decomposed and exhausted.

Bang!

A muffled sound, not loud but enough to make one's heart and gallbladder split, came through.

In the horrified gaze of everyone, that black-clad leader, whose strength reached the level of a Nine-Star Dou Wang.

His body, like a watermelon crushed by an invisible giant hand, exploded violently in mid-air!

It turned into a mist of blood; he couldn't even fully emit a scream before being completely annihilated by that terrifying Devouring Power, leaving no bones behind!

Crushing a Nine-Star Dou Wang from afar!

The remaining men in black were scared out of their wits, dared not stay any longer, desperately used their escape techniques, fled in panic, and instantly disappeared into the depths of the wasteland.

Xiao Qing couldn't be bothered to chase these small fry.

The battle ended in a very short time with one side being completely crushed.

Xiao Qing deactivated the 【Devouring Law Form】, returned to his green-robed attire, and his aura became restrained, as if that dark golden Demonic Lord from just now had never appeared.

He calmly walked to the corpses of Fan Lao and the leader of the Mad Lion Gang, and took the Storage Rings from their hands.

His soul Power probed into Fan Lao's Storage Ring, and sure enough, he found the scroll of the fire element pill Pill Formula, as well as a large amount of gold coins, medicinal materials, and some Cultivation resources unique to the Blood Sect.

The Storage Ring of the Mad Lion Gang leader mostly contained gold coins and ordinary valuables.

Subsequently, he also retrieved the Storage Rings of the Earth Flame Sect Elder and the black-clad leader who had been crushed.

After a brief inspection, the Earth Flame Sect Elder's Storage Ring contained many fire-attribute medicinal materials and ore.

The black-clad leader's Storage Ring was somewhat special; besides some valuables.

It also contained a black token engraved with a strange snake pattern; he didn't know its Origin.

Looking at the rich harvest in the Storage Rings, a satisfied smile appeared on Xiao Qing's face.

This battle was simply a huge harvest!

Zi Yan then ran over excitedly, her small face flushed with excitement.

Her big purple eyes were full of admiration; Zi Yan pulled on Xiao Qing's sleeve and cheered: "Xiao Qing, Xiao Qing! You are so amazing!"

"That old man in red was so fierce, and you wiped him out in one go! And that dark guy, you crushed him from so far away! You're too amazing!"

Xiao Qing smiled, ruffled her soft purple hair, and didn't speak.

His gaze, however, swept like cold electricity across the figures around the wasteland who had not yet fully retreated and were still spying in the dark.

Xiao Qing used a trace of soul Power; his voice was not loud, but it clearly entered the ears of every spy, like a heavy hammer striking their hearts: "Today's matter ends here. If there are any more blind fools, Fan Lao and these few small fry will be your fate!"

The cold voice, carrying unquestionable majesty and killing intent, echoed across the wasteland.

Those spies from various parties hiding in the dark, those who harbored lucky thoughts, were all terrified upon hearing this voice.

They were all like being doused from head to toe with a basin of ice water, completely extinguishing any thoughts they shouldn't have had.

They dared not stay any longer and retreated at their fastest speed, fearing that if they were a step too slow, they would follow in the footsteps of Fan Lao and the others.

After this battle, Xiao Qing used thunderous methods to kill the Dou Huang Fan Lao, punched a Five-Star Dou Wang to death, and crushed a Nine-Star Dou Wang from afar.

His ferocity and strength would surely spread through the word-of-mouth of these survivors, rapidly shaking the entire Black-Corner Region.

Because of his green robes and his ruthless, bizarre methods, the name "Azure Demon Lord" spread rapidly.

Xiao Qing became a fierce star in this chaotic land that one should not easily provoke!

He no longer paid attention to this blood-stained wasteland, holding the still-excited Zi Yan by the hand.

He spread his Dou Qi wings and flew leisurely toward the deeper parts of the wasteland, disappearing into it.

Chapter 105, Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan! 【Two more chapters to come】

After leaving the bone-strewn wasteland where the conflict had erupted, Xiao Qing took Zi Yan and traveled rapidly all the way.

Finally, in a secluded mountain range hundreds of miles away from Black Mark City where few people visited, he found a dry and spacious cave to stay temporarily.

After setting up a soul barrier to isolate the inside from the outside, Xiao Qing's mind sank into his body, communicating with the mysterious Golden Tome.

Subsequently, the Golden Tome silently extracted a drop of Zi Yan's Origin blood essence, which was sealed in a jade bottle inside the Storage Ring.

As the blood essence was extracted by the power of the book, three clear choices immediately appeared in Xiao Qing's mind:

【Treasure Seeking】: Originating from the Void Ancient Dragon's unique sensitivity to treasures of heaven and earth.

【Dragon Might】: The natural pressure of the Void Ancient Dragon bloodline, which has a deterrent effect on all beasts.

【Space】: Originating from the Void Ancient Dragon's innate talent for controlling the Spatial Power.

Almost without any hesitation, Xiao Qing's mind locked onto the 【Space】 option.

Although the treasure-seeking talent is good, with Zi Yan by his side, the effect is already sufficient.

Dragon Might is, for Xiao Qing, like a chicken rib.

Only the Spatial Power is mysterious and unpredictable; whether used for combat, escaping, or exploration, it has irreplaceable, enormous value.

Solidify!

With a thought, light flowed across the Golden Tome, and that drop of purple-gold blood essence completely merged into it.

In an instant, a strange realization surged into Xiao Qing's heart.

【Spiritual Grade High-Tier · Spatial Power】 solidified successfully!

Following this, the Dou Qi cultivation that had been suppressed in his body for a long time broke through the critical point!

Seven-Star Dou Wang...

Eight-Star Dou Wang!

Xiao Qing slowly opened his eyes, feeling that he had become much stronger once again.

And the whole world seemed to have become somewhat different.
