"Isn't your existence also a way of benefiting me?"

Xu Xiwang sighed softly.

"What nonsense are you spouting?!"

The demon's face darkened: "Let me tell you, only I can set up schemes, only I can control the future. With just a flick of my finger, I can obliterate your soul!"

"You are a true demon, an unparalleled overlord who traverses the myriad realms of the starry sky."

Xu Xiwang shook his head, his expression indifferent and without a trace of emotion: "But today is your swan song."

"You are destined to perish!"

As soon as he finished speaking, golden light surged around Xu Xiwang, and in an instant, his physical body began to crack and collapse!

This is his soul resisting the corruption of the demon!

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Upon seeing this, the demon laughed wildly.

"The seal left by your father has long since loosened beyond recognition, and my soul can now completely break free! You, a mere mortal, cannot stop me at all!!"

The demon roared ferociously, "I have already seen through your every move, and I have already made arrangements for your backup plan!"

Buzz~

The demon waved his hand, and the void trembled.

Xu Xiwang remained expressionless, simply clasping his hands together in a mudra.

Boom!

In an instant, the entire void trembled violently.

A huge magic circle appeared beneath Xu Xiwang's feet, enveloping, suppressing, and sealing the demon!

"What kind of trick is this?!"

The demon was suddenly horrified!

“I had long sensed that you were eager to devour me, but I was so focused on comprehending the great principles of heaven and earth that I had no time to deal with you. Now that you have taken the initiative, it has saved me a lot of trouble.”

Xu Xiwang said indifferently, "You underestimate my father's methods."

"I am the true demon! How could you ants possibly fathom the extent of my power!"

The demon roared, and the surrounding void twisted and tore apart.

He broke free from the seal set up by Xu Xiwang and charged at Xu Xiwang once again.

"Perhaps I should call you Master. You have taught me a lot and helped me a lot."

Xu Xiwang looked at the demon before him, his heart filled with complex emotions. "But you missed the best opportunity! You were too impatient, too greedy. If you had been a little more patient, I would surely have fallen into your hands!"

"No! I am immortal, an eternal being! I am the sole ruler of this universe!"

The demon roared madly, its aura terrifying!

Just as the demon rushed towards Xu Xiwang, the final seal was activated!

Boom!

Thunder roared!

The billowing black clouds gathered, with lightning flashing and thunder roaring within them, as if the world were about to end!

This scene caused the demon's pupils to shrink, revealing a look of fear!

At the same time, his body froze, as if he were stuck in a quagmire, unable to move an inch.

"No...no..."

The demon screamed hysterically and tried to escape frantically, but it couldn't break free from the chains of heavenly lightning and was repeatedly struck and sent flying.

"You... you actually planned this all along, plotting against me!!"

The demon's face twisted in a ferocious grin: "You and your son conspired against me!"

Endless lightning transformed into thick, roaring thunder dragons that coiled around him and crashed violently into his body.

"Aaaaaah—!!!!"

The demon wailed in agony.

The heavenly lightning not only destroyed his physical body, but also continued to erode his soul.

"reverse!"

Heaven and earth are immortal!

Only the immortal!

The Way of Heaven is boundless!

Only immortality!

Nine cycles of reincarnation!

Only the immortal!

This is the supreme mystery of the Way of Heaven!

The demon was engulfed in brilliant demonic flames, attempting to reverse the heavenly lightning with his own power!

However, it was all beyond repair.

Xu Xiwang stretched out his hand and softly shouted, "Merge Chaos!"

A black hole slowly expanded in his hand, and a mysterious and inexplicable power was born, enveloping the demon!

Click, click...

Heaven and earth collapsed, and the universe was turned upside down!

The demon's body shattered continuously, eventually turning into drops of pure energy that merged into Xu Xiwang's body.

"I am immortal!"

The demon roared, its voice filled with extreme venom, "I possess immortal blood, an eternal existence!"

"One day I will go to the Holy Demon Heavenly Court and avenge you..."

Xu Xiwang looked at his pathetic, cheap master with a hint of pity in his eyes. "It's a pity you won't live to see this day."

"Revenge...Revenge...I, the King..."

The demon murmured something, then vanished, utterly annihilated.

All his memories were erased.

Xu Xiwang silently sat down and began to circulate the elemental laws within his body to repair his damaged soul.

His expression was calm, but his mind was indifferent.

He had anticipated all of this, and therefore had already prepared a backup plan.

Having absorbed the soul of a demon that had existed for hundreds of thousands of years, Xu Xiwang's soul power now swelled to its limit.

Bang!

The next second, a muffled sound came from the sky.

"Is he about to break through to the Saint Emperor realm?"

Feeling the surge of spiritual power within him, Xu Xiwang raised an eyebrow slightly.

The people in the Sinful Land were also greatly alarmed as they watched the lightning tribulation descend from the sky once again.

This kid's breakthroughs are like he's on a rocket!

In a short while, he rose from the third level of the Saint Realm to the half-step Saint Emperor, seemingly only half a step away from the Saint Emperor realm!

We're about to break through!

Many people cursed inwardly, thinking that this speed was insane!

"Help him break through with all your might!"

Long Hong shouted.

At this moment, this exceptionally talented quasi-emperor had turned completely white-haired due to excessive consumption of his vital essence.

The Heavenly Mystery Sage was on the verge of death.

As Xu Xiwang made his breakthrough, the land of the Sinful Land began to crack, mountains and rivers collapsed, and the entire space began to tremble.

"Heaven and earth are ruthless. I, an old man, risked my life to use a secret technique to forcibly deduce the future and glimpse a sliver of heavenly secrets."

As Tianji Shengjun watched Xu Xiwang break through to the Saint Emperor realm, he sighed, "Heaven's will is like a knife; no one can change it."
