Li Tian turned around quickly, expressionless, and said, "Hold the line. Leave the things inside to me."

His words, though spoken without anger, instilled a powerful aura that sent shivers down the spines of the garrison. "Yes, yes!"

A blade of light struck the horde of demons, freezing them in place instantly.

As the shockwave swept past, a thin gash appeared on the heads of all the monsters, causing them to fall to the ground.

This scene deeply shocked the defending soldiers, who stared wide-eyed, mouth agape, frozen in place.

Suddenly, a tall monster fled into the depths of the town.

"A level three monster has been conceived in such a short time?" He frowned slightly, his gaze following its movement. "We absolutely cannot let it live."

It transformed into a blur, following closely behind.

The monster was terrified and sped away.

The distance between the two was closing, and in its panic, it rushed into a cluster of houses.

A scream rang out.

Countless survivors, in a state of panic, clutched various weapons and huddled together.

Fear flashed in the eyes of the person at the front, but he glanced at his companion out of the corner of his eye.

Suddenly, he grabbed his companion's clothes and pushed him away.

Just then, the monster came along and swallowed it whole.

"you?"

The man was in a fit of anger and was about to start cursing when his body involuntarily moved forward.

"You will all die a horrible death!"

The monster's claws pierced through his chest, and its gaping maw bit into his head.

Li Tianyi stood not far away, his eyes cold. "This is the human heart under the apocalypse. Sigh!"

A sharp-eyed woman spotted him in the distance, her terrified expression instantly turning to ecstatic joy. "Help! Help!"

Pretending not to hear, he looked away.

Seeing a glimmer of hope for survival, the survivors rushed over without hesitation.

The monsters gave them no chance to escape, their claws and gaping maws falling one after another, and the crowd was rapidly dwindling.

"Aren't you afraid of retribution for standing by and watching someone die?"

"I'll curse your ancestors for eighteen generations!"

"You just wait."

......

The insults from the crowd grew increasingly offensive.

"Trying to morally blackmail me?" Li Tianyi's lips curled into a cold smile. "Saving you is a favor, not saving you is my right. Besides, we're not related, why should I save you?"

Many people were speechless.

The two young women, however, were quick-witted. "Save us sisters, and we're yours."

"Seduce me, it won't work." A look of disgust flashed in his eyes. "People like you are just a waste of food and air. Only when you die can the world be at peace."

"You, you piece of trash!"

I curse you to have a son who will be born without an anus!

The two became increasingly excited and didn't realize someone was behind them until their waists were grabbed.

It was too late; they were flung towards the monster.

The two men were turning to run away.

They were terrified, crying their eyes out, "Please, save us!"

Li Tianyi could hardly bear to look at such scum.

The monster's claws pierced through their bodies in an instant, causing them to howl in pain.

The two wouldn't die immediately; the intense pain caused them to faint, and then they woke up.

After many repetitions, he finally reached the end of his life, a relieved smile flashing in his eyes.

The monster looked disgusted and threw the corpse at the fleeing person.

Boom!

Their spines were crushed, killing them instantly.

Waaah!

The monster slowly turned around, glanced at Li Tianyi, a deep fear flashing in its eyes, and then turned and fled.

Po Jun danced lightly, a cold glint piercing through the demon.

boom!

His body exploded into dozens of pieces.

Li Tianyi's face was frosty as he looked into the distance. "There are very few people who can hold onto their principles. There is no need for rescue."

The Po Jun sword hummed, and an extremely domineering blade aura gradually took shape.

A blade of light, thousands of feet long, slashed towards the nearest town.

The earth trembled, houses collapsed instantly, and terrifying blades swept across the land.

The monsters and ruthless survivors in the town were instantly reduced to ashes.

"Let's go to the next town!"

Little did he know that his attack had already alarmed various factions.

“This madman! We let him in to save people, but he’s killing them instead.”

"He's a demon, a demon."

"We must not let him go to the next town; we must stop him."

The defending soldiers were filled with righteous indignation.

The commanders of the various legions had extremely grim faces as they awaited the decision from higher-ups.

The ancient kingdom of Gusheng was the first to receive the news and decided to wait and see.

News also came from Curry and the Seven Leaf Kingdom, who were observing the situation.

Only the Tianfeng Empire reported: "We must not let him destroy all the towns."

A large army was mobilized to intercept Li Tianyi.

"Since you insist on courting death, I'm too lazy to care." Disappointment flashed in his eyes as he turned and left.

After leaving the Tianfeng Empire, he immediately sent a message to Fairy Lingbo: "The righteous alliance members, evacuate immediately and build at least three lines of defense in front of the mountain gate."

"Also, stockpile supplies, reclaim wasteland for farming, and store water resources."

"Master Li, is this really how it has to be?" Lingbo Fairy's eyes flashed with reluctance.

“They have lost their humanity and are absolutely no match for the demons.” His lips twitched. “At that time, the entire Tianfeng Empire and the surrounding kingdoms will become food for the demons, and the demons will spread throughout the entire territory. The only way for you to survive is this.”

Lingbo Fairy felt a chill run down her spine, cold sweat poured down her back, and she managed to say with difficulty, "Ming, I understand."

Upon receiving the message, Yun Zhongzi immediately complied.

Just as everyone was busy, Xuan Qingzi came to them and said, "Nephew, please have Hero Li come over here."

"Yes, Uncle-Master."

......

More than two hours later, in a secret room in Wudang.

"Little Tian greets Heavenly Venerable." Li Tianyi cupped his hands and bowed. "Thank you, Heavenly Venerable, for saving my life."

Xuan Qingzi smiled faintly and shook his head, "Even if I don't take action, you will be fine."

His smile deepened. "I know what you want to ask, but now is not the time for you to know."

Li Tianyi frowned slightly and gave a bitter smile, "You all say that, so when is the time for me to find out?"

“When the time comes, you will know.” Xuan Qingzi pointed to the black wall on the right. “All I can do is take you back to your original world.”

"I really want to go back, but my brother and sister-in-law are still in the River Styx. I think..."

"The River Styx is the passageway to leave."

"What?"

Xuan Qingzi's expression was serious. "This world is not as simple as you think. Young friend, you are exceptionally talented and have had many fortuitous encounters. As long as you continue to grow, you will be invincible in the world."

"Alright, I've said all I can say. As for whether you can grow up, that depends on your own destiny."

With a flick of his sleeve, the wall lit up, emitting a hissing sound.

A portal was opened.

Go!

"Thank you, Heavenly Venerable. Until we meet again!"

Until we meet again!

Without looking back, Li Tian rushed into the passage.

The portal closed, and Xuan Qingzi looked up at the ceiling. "Young friend, time is running out. Grow up as quickly as possible."

......

The River Styx, middle section.

Fang Xin and Qiao Xiaoxue looked exhausted, back to back, recovering from the enormous strain.

"Husband, we've done everything we can. We couldn't even shake the mountainside, let alone destroy the River Styx." She was panting heavily and looked utterly dejected.

"Rest first, and we'll think of a solution after you recover."

The two fell silent, focusing all their energy on recovering...

They didn't know how much time had passed when a hissing sound woke them up.

A point of light gradually transforms into a portal.

Li Tianyi rushed out at top speed.

"Brother Xin, sister-in-law."

Fang Xin and Qiao Xiaoxue thought they were seeing things, so they rubbed their eyes, only to find that the person in front of them had not disappeared.

"Xiao Tian?"

"It's me!"

"What brings you here, kid?" Fang Xin asked excitedly, punching him in the chest.

Li Tianyi remained motionless, but he took several steps back. "This?"

"Hehe, I have broken through to the Martial King realm."

"Huh?" Qiao Xiaoxue stared with her big, bright eyes and her cherry-like mouth agape.

"You're a monster, kid." Fang Xin patted his arm hard. "The power of a Martial King should be able to destroy the power here, right?"

Li Tianyi smiled and shook his head, "Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. Any power depends on who is using it."

"Understood. Where do we go next?"

"Of course, we're going back to Earth."

A look of reluctance flashed in Qiao Xiaoxue's eyes as she slowly turned towards the direction of her hometown. "Dad, Mom, Xiaoxue is leaving."

"Dad, Mom, don't worry, I will take good care of Xiaoxue." After bowing three times, he helped Qiao Xiaoxue up. "Believe me, we will definitely come back."

"Um!"

Li Tianyi nodded emphatically, giving a thumbs up. "Loyal and righteous, truly devoted! Good, very good!"

He smiled mysteriously, "When we get back to Earth, I'll give you a big surprise."

"What surprise?" The two were intrigued.

"We'll find out then." Li Tianyi looked up at the rushing Styx River. "If my deduction is correct, we must cross the Styx River to leave."

"Ding! Friendly reminder: The exit is not inside the River Styx, but somewhere in the middle section." System voice.

"Are you sure?" (A telepathic exchange).

"Sure!"

Turning to Fang Xin and the other person, he said, "Search around and see if there's anything suspicious."

"Okay!"

The three separated and searched the vicinity.

Without realizing it, a distance grew between them.

Li Tianyi was drawn to a strange stone and poked it with his Po Jun sword, but there was no reaction.

He then tried to probe with his internal energy, but there was still no response.

"What a waste of time!"

A bitter look flashed in his eyes as he gazed into the distance.

A rocky beach appeared.

“I remember there wasn’t this rocky beach when I came here before?” Memories flooded back. “I can’t be wrong. There’s definitely something strange about this place.”

With a slight frown and a cold expression, he slowly approached.

The moment his right foot stepped on it, a cold glint shot straight to the top of his head.

He used his internal energy to dispel the cold and stepped out with his left foot.

The moment my feet touched it, I felt twice as cold as before.

With full internal energy circulation, the cold air could no longer affect him.

"Brother Xin, sister-in-law. Come over here quickly."

Upon receiving the news, the two rushed over at full speed. "What happened?"

"Inject your inner strength into my body." Li Tianyi.

"good!"

I placed my palm against his back.

The Yin-Yang internal energy enters the body and transforms into an even more powerful force.

"Weapons clash!"

The Broken Army Sword, the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword, and the Spirit Serpent Soft Sword collided.

The sounds of gas explosions continued.

The ground was swept by the violent aura, and its color changed drastically in an instant.

"Just as I thought." Li Tianyi smiled. "Increase the intensity, this is the portal."

The two were overjoyed and unleashed their full inner strength.

Sizzle, sizzle!

A portal opened, and the three were drawn into it.

The portal closed instantly.

Suddenly, an extremely ferocious face appeared on the ground, a bitter smile playing on its lips. "I hope you can fight for our survival, alas!"
