"Soul-Suppressing Jade, I am made of copper and iron. With your power, you cannot even budge me in the slightest. What can you do to me?" the Black Flame Demon Lord said coldly.

Lin Fan grabbed its chin, trying to force the Soul-Suppressing Jade inside, but the Black Flame Demon Lord kept its mouth tightly shut and struggled.

After a short while, he had exhausted a great deal of energy, but still failed to force the Soul-Suppressing Jade into the Black Flame Demon Lord's mouth.

He said coldly, "If you swallow the Soul-Suppressing Jade honestly, you can at least have a dignified death. Otherwise, don't blame me for not giving you any dignity."

"Insolence! You have thoroughly angered me! When I break free from this seal, I will make you wish you were dead!" The Black Flame Demon Lord roared in fury, his voice like thunder, making his ears ring.

Lin Fan sneered, "You may be as tough as iron, but you always have weaknesses. Unless you're a mythical creature that only eats and doesn't excrete, I still have ways to deal with you."

After saying that, he took out a stick from his storage ring. Seeing his movements and direction, the Black Flame Demon Lord's face immediately showed fear, and he struggled to ask, "What do you want to do?"

He tried to break free of the seal, but his limbs, feet, and tail were all immobilized, as he was firmly bound by the demon-binding rope.

"Bastard, how dare you do such a thing to me! You will have no place in the demonic path!" Black Flame Demon Lord roared in terror. Suddenly, his body stiffened, his eyes widened, and he lost all color in his eyes, showing no sign of life.

After the deed was done, Lin Fan clapped his hands and glanced at the Black Flame Demon Lord with some disdain. His body burst forth with dazzling light, as pure and holy power intertwined and merged with demonic energy, ultimately resulting in a strong repulsion.

The two opposing forces disrupted the balance, and the power of the altar surged even more violently towards the Black Flame Demon Lord.

He roared to the sky, filled with resentment and unwillingness, and his body exploded, turning into a blood mist and dissipating. His primordial spirit and soul were both suppressed and killed by the Soul-Suppressing Jade.

Lin Fan watched as the Soul-Suppressing Jade shattered and its power was exhausted. He thought to himself that it was better that the thing was gone since it was now tainted.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for slaying the Black Flame Demon Lord. Rewards include the ninth level of the Dragon Soul Sword Technique, one Heaven-Mending Jade, and one Demon-Subduing Pestle." The system's voice rang out, and a purple-gold iron rod-like treasure appeared in his inventory.

After the Black Flame Demon Lord was killed, the altar was instantly reduced to ashes, and its mission was over.

Lin Fan returned to the ground, straightened his clothes, then left the heritage site, washed his hands, and leisurely returned to the Ten Thousand Mountains.

However, the Ten Thousand Mountains were in chaos at this time, with battles taking place everywhere and wisps of black demonic energy drifting through the forest.

His expression changed slightly, and he quickly ran towards the Tiger Clan. Judging from the changes in the situation outside, it must have taken him a long time to receive the inheritance.

As he raced along, he saw a large number of monster corpses, including tigers, pigs, and bears, as well as powerful warriors who had died in battle, many of whom were at the fifth rank.

These were the top-tier combat forces of magical beasts, comparable to the Nascent Soul stage cultivators of humans, yet many of them had died in succession.

The Tiger Clan gathered many powerful clans from the Ten Thousand Mountains, all seeking refuge and joining their ranks.

Apart from the three great beast races, no other race in the Hundred Thousand Mountains can survive the siege of powerful demonic cultivators. They can only seek the protection of the three great demonic beasts to have a chance to continue their race.

"Hehehe..."

Before he had gone far, Lin Fan heard a strange sound. His expression froze. Was the demon laughing so strangely now?

He rushed out quickly and saw a Nascent Soul stage demon chasing after a powerful fox clan member. The woman was a fox with furry ears, a naturally beautiful face, skin like jade, and eyes like peach blossoms; one glance from her could bewitch all living beings.

She was desperately trying to escape, her body wounded, when a powerful demonic aura knocked her to the ground.

The fox-woman coughed up blood incessantly, and as she watched the demons charge, she closed her eyes in despair.

However, the attack she had imagined did not come. The fox opened its eyes slightly and found that the demon was imprisoned.

What came into view was a young man in a blue robe. He was just standing there, yet he gave people an unparalleled sense of security, as heavy as a mountain.

The demon was held in his palm, unable to move. Then, with a gentle squeeze, the demon was instantly killed.

"Is this the power of the Tribulation Transcending stage? Killing Nascent Soul stage cultivators is like crushing ants." Lin Fan muttered to himself, feeling incredibly exhilarated.

Finally, I don't have to worry about what others think anymore. Now that I'm independent, I can slap anyone I don't like.

"Senior...Senior!" The fox clan member mustered all his strength, adjusted his body, and knelt on the ground to express his gratitude.

"Get up. How is the Ten Thousand Mountains now?"

Lin Fan tossed out a healing pill, which the fox girl picked up, thanked him profusely, and swallowed. Her injuries began to heal rapidly.

"The demons marched from beyond the Southern Pass all the way to the southern part of the Central Plains, but the three powerful beastmen joined forces to resist them, so they did not enter so easily. Apart from the Central Plains, the four major regions of the human race have all fallen."

She caught her breath, stood up, straightened her clothes, and stood carefully to the side, like a little maid.

"Take me to the Tiger Clan," Lin Fan said.

"Yes, senior!" The fox girl led the way, and along the way, she saw many powerful clans lying dead on the road, the battle was extremely tragic.

"stop!"

A powerful member of the tiger clan stopped the two and began questioning their identities.

The fox woman had joined the tiger clan, which is why she was able to travel freely after her identity was questioned.

"I am Lin Fan, a good friend of your Tiger Clan's Holy Maiden Miaomiao," Lin Fan said politely.

"Hmph, any Tom, Dick, or Harry dares to claim to be the Holy Maiden's friend," the Tiger Clan expert said coldly. Their gazes were icy, fixed intently on him.

"You can pass on the message, and they will know," Lin Fan said amicably.

"Hmph, brat, I advise you to go back to where you came from. The Tiger Clan is not a place for you." The Tiger Clan expert pointed his weapon at him and said coldly.

The fox woman took a deep breath, feeling somewhat nervous and worried for the tiger clan's powerful figure. The person in front of her was a terrifying figure who could easily kill a Nascent Soul stage demon with a single palm strike.

She was about to speak when Lin Fan reached out and beckoned with his finger, causing the two tiger clan experts to float up involuntarily.

Then Lin Fan gently moved downwards, and the two powerful figures crashed backwards to the ground, being smashed into the soil.

Seeing this, the fox woman smiled slightly, realizing that Lin Fan was only punishing them and did not intend to kill them.

The two tigers were like plants planted in the ground, their hands supporting them on the ground, their legs kicking incessantly, unable to leap off the ground.

The tiger clan's powerful members surrounded him, looking at him warily, and raised their weapons at him.

"What are you doing?" At this moment, two large tigers walked over, their faces fierce, and shouted sternly.

"Master Bao, Master Qiang, this human has barged in and injured two guards," said the tiger clan expert.

"Really?" The two big tigers looked up and stared at Lin Fan. Their eyes widened and they trotted over.

"Hey, isn't this my brother-in-law? You've brought back the inheritance?" Hong Bao rubbed his hands together and said with a simple smile.
