The battle for the Heavenly Rankings had reached its final stage, a veritable free-for-all where everyone displayed their unique abilities. However, there was no doubt that the Mysterious Demon Clan was the biggest dark horse. While everyone on the continent was dreaming of finding a single strange flame, they had secretly and quietly found the Nine Nether Demon Dragon Flame, ranked so high. And that wasn't all; what's more, they managed to refrain from using it, or rather, they killed everyone who had witnessed them wielding the Nine Nether Demon Dragon Flame.

At this final juncture, the strange fire appeared, causing countless people to turn red with anxiety. And that wasn't all; he had even managed to condense the Yellow Springs Domain. The Yellow Springs is known as the entrance to the Netherworld; once you enter, there's no turning back. The waters of the Yellow Springs also possess mysterious and unpredictable power, a power that, if cultivated to a deeper level, could even become forbidden. It's a mystery where this guy came from, and how he managed to hold back until now before unleashing his power; his mental fortitude is truly remarkable.

Exquisite lotus flowers vanished into nothingness beneath the Yellow Springs water. Jing Li crushed a handful of top-grade fire-attribute pills, and instantly, more world-destroying red lotuses, transformed from red lotus karmic fire, reappeared, blooming all over the Yellow Springs. This scene was, in theory, extremely beautiful.

However, in this setting, no one appreciates this kind of beauty.

The Yellow Springs water surged continuously, and some of the World-Destroying Red Lotuses were directly corroded into nothingness by the Yellow Springs water, while others drifted downstream with the current.

The Yin-Yang Demon Flame and the Nine Nether Demon Dragon Flame continued their fierce battle in mid-air. The Nine Nether Demon Dragon Flame was furious; despite being a weak creature, it was incredibly troublesome, and one could easily get entangled by the two little balls.

So far, the Nine Nether Demon Dragon Flame hasn't gained any advantage; however much Yin-Yang Demon Flame it devoured, the Yin-Yang Demon Flame also devoured it in return. This greatly angered the Nine Nether Demon Dragon Flame, which had been invincible and capable of destroying the world.

However, no matter how angry he was, he still couldn't break through the Tai Chi Bagua Formation of the Yin-Yang Demon Flame.

On the arena, the World-Destroying Fire Lotus and the Yellow Spring Water devoured each other without producing any earth-shattering explosions or dazzling special effects.

One by one, red lotuses were born from the flames and then returned to nothingness in the Yellow Springs, repeating the cycle endlessly, as if this scene had existed for many years. Ye Xiruo's vision became somewhat blurry.

This moment is a repetition of the previous moment, and the previous moment is a repetition of the moment before that. This power is incredibly strong. Ye Xiruo's eyes were somewhat confused, but her heart was becoming more and more excited. This was clearly the power of reincarnation. This flower, that flower, just like day and night, the changing of the seasons, was constantly in a cycle.

Her death in her previous life and her rebirth in this one is a kind of reincarnation. This power is terrifying; it seems that nothing in the world can escape these two words. Even with Ye Xiruo's current level of cultivation, she couldn't hold on for more than a few minutes before she quickly regained her senses. However, the enlightenment she had just experienced was enough to have a decisive impact on her future cultivation.

The battle between Jing Li and the mysterious demon clan continued silently. This kind of collision between domains and realms is the most dangerous. Once a domain or realm is broken, one will definitely be seriously injured, and may even have their Dao heart shattered, making it difficult to make any progress in this life.

Although outsiders cannot perceive the serene beauty of the flickering Red Lotus on the arena, the constant flashing light on the stage is enough to confirm the intensity of the clash between the two realms.

The arena was constantly being destroyed and then restored to its original state in a very short time. Jing Li and the mysterious demon were still doing their best to hold on. Jing Li casually took out a bottle of top-grade pills, crushed it, and had it absorbed by the domain.

Whether it was the ninety-nine prodigies surrounding the arena or the outsiders, no one knew what to say at this moment. Look, as expected of the Hall Master of the Pill King Hall, any one of these pills could be auctioned for tens of thousands of high-grade spirit stones, yet Jing Li used them handful by handful as nourishment to cultivate his domain.

This is truly a case of having the power to do whatever one wants, making many forces green with envy. Previously, they didn't have a clear understanding of the wealthy members of the Pill King Palace, but now they've been thoroughly humiliated.

Just like Jing Li said, when it comes to attrition, no one present can beat him. So what if it's top-grade pills? Anyway, he has plenty in stock, and also a lot of high-grade junk, so he can clear out his inventory.

The mysterious demon clearly saw what Jing Li did, and a glint of light flashed in his lifeless eyes.

"I concede defeat with just one Emperor-grade pill."

Jing Li, who was taking out pills, almost doubted whether she had misheard; the possibility seemed rather low.

He transmitted his voice directly: "Do I look like an Emperor-level alchemist to you?" Emperor-level, quite the boast.

The mysterious demon was silent for a moment: "Three king-level pills, top-grade."

"Do I look like a King-level alchemist to you?"

"Similar." This time, the mysterious demon answered quickly: "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll challenge Zishu in the next round."

Ugh, that's so shameless. Zishu is ranked in the twenties, and he won the challenge. Is that really interesting?

"make a deal."

On the arena, countless red lotuses suddenly grew larger, their terrifying temperature distorting the entire space. The Yellow Spring water churned violently, wave after wave, surging endlessly, with strands of destructive power colliding with the destructive power of the red lotus karmic fire.

Are these two preparing to unleash their ultimate attack to end the battle?

"Roar~~" The Nine Nether Demon Dragon Flame unleashed a powerful tail lash in mid-air, striking the Tai Chi Bagua diagram fiercely. The little white ball and the little black ball were sent flying, dazed and confused in mid-air. It transformed its body into a giant millstone and descended from the sky, intending to crush the hateful black dragon to death.

At this moment, the two people below the arena were completely obscured. The chilling Yellow Spring waters gushed forth, revealing stark white bones, while the other half was a bright, blood-red lotus of destruction.

One white and one yellow divided the space into two parts. Could the world-destroying red lotus evaporate the waters of the underworld, or could the waters of the underworld annihilate the world-destroying red lotus? A big question mark rose in everyone's mind.

The battle between Mu Feng and Yu Kou had never been as gripping as it is now. First came the strange fire, then the mysterious Yellow Spring Water, and now the extravagant Palace Master was squandering top-grade pills like spirit stones. Many people were cursing Jing Li to just fail, to fail! After all, Jing Li had the most pills; a couple of them would be enough to restore him.

The clash lasted a full quarter of an hour, and in the end, the vibrant Crimson Lotus of Annihilation bloomed across the Yellow Springs. Jing Li then scattered another handful of high-grade pills, causing the Crimson Lotus of Annihilation in the Yellow Springs to bloom even more vividly.

"Huh?! That incredibly powerful and mysterious demon, that bloodthirsty maniac, actually lost!!!"

"The Lord of the Palace is mighty."

"I knew the victor would be the Lord of the Palace."

"I confess to the Palace Master that you defeated the demons fair and square, without using any mysterious poison pills this time."

"That's right, that sore loser alien race can now shut up obediently."
