Chapter 266 - Chapter 266: Encircled by Ten Thousand Demons

"Did you break through to the Ancestor Realm?" Seeing Xiao Yan awaken and instantly obliterate the Fourth Seat King with a single finger, Qing Tan couldn't help but ask. Despite having regained her Yin-cold power and barely managing to suppress the Third Seat King, the idea of wiping him out in one strike was simply impossible for her. Especially considering how quickly Xiao Yan had acted, without any trace of energy fluctuations, it made her instinctively believe he had reached the Ancestor Realm.

"It's not that easy," Xiao Yan shook his head. If he had truly stepped into that realm, he could have vaporized the Fourth Seat King without a trace with a snap of his fingers, let alone needing to use a move from the Demon Wrath Nine Absolutes. Clearly, he hadn't fully broken through to the Dou Di realm. In fact, he wasn't even at the so-called half-step Dou Di.

'Perhaps due to the different world,' he thought, 'I somehow experienced a journey akin to the Path of Reincarnation, something only those at the Ancestor Realm undergo.' If he had been cultivating Yuan Energy, he would indeed now be at the Ancestor Realm. Unfortunately, his cultivation was rooted in Dou Qi, and without Yuan Energy, a true breakthrough was impossible.

As a result, his current state was rather strange. In terms of comprehension, he had reached the level of an Ancestor. But in terms of Dou Qi, he was still at the peak of Dou Sheng. Still, even so, his strength far surpassed ordinary peak Dou Shengs—evident from how easily he had killed the Fourth Seat King.

"Alright, let's deal with what's in front of us first," Xiao Yan said calmly, turning to look at the Third Seat King.

"I can handle this guy," Qing Tan said, gripping her black scythe with a glint of eagerness in her eyes.

"He's not your only problem right now," Xiao Yan shook his head. His soul perception was far superior to Qing Tan's, allowing him to detect things she couldn't. With a flick of his sleeve, the entire Yang Origin mine was instantly reduced to ash.

In the distant sky, surging demonic energy spread across tens of thousands of kilometers. Ear-piercing howls resounded from within, and even Lin Jing could see countless dense black figures emerging from the mist. Leading the horde was an exceedingly handsome black-robed man.

"Seat King of Heaven!" Qing Tan's expression changed drastically upon seeing the man. She clearly recognized him. In the ranking of the Ten Seat Kings of the Yimo race, his strength was the highest, second only to the Yimo Emperor. He was the initial commander of the great war over a decade ago!

"Strange," the Heaven Seat King remarked, gazing at Qing Tan with interest. "The Ice Sovereign clearly fell, and yet you still bear her aura. And oddly enough, you're even stronger than the one who underwent Reincarnation."

His eyes gleamed with surprise but quickly turned cold again. "No matter. Our race brought down the Ice Sovereign once, we'll do it again. And again, if we must."

Facing the Heaven Seat King, Qing Tan's heart gradually sank. She couldn't even deal with just him. Now, all of the Yimo's Ten Seat Kings, along with the Great Sky Evil Demon King, had assembled here. Worse still, she could sense dozens of true King-level Yimo among the horde, nearly a hundred in number. Regular King-rank Yimo were even more abundant, and the Command-rank ones were practically uncountable.

'Even if all eight ancient leaders were here, they might not survive this onslaught…'

"And you…" the Heaven Seat King turned his gaze toward Xiao Yan. "You've nearly reached the Ancestor Realm. Another one born in this realm? We can't allow you to complete that step."

"You sure talk a lot," Xiao Yan snorted. "Don't think wearing the same outfit as me makes me hesitate to beat your dog head in. If you're so bold, come down and fight me one-on-one."

"Indeed, you're strong. Aside from our Emperor, I wouldn't dare say I could defeat you alone," said the Heaven Seat King, his expression calm and unfazed by the provocation. "But I'm not foolish enough to give you that chance. Kill them!"

"You really don't know me," Xiao Yan cracked his knuckles. "If there's one thing I don't fear, it's being ganged up on."

Despite his bravado, Xiao Yan's heart grew somewhat solemn. He had endured many siege battles in his previous life, but this lineup was unprecedented. In terms of Dou Qi continent rankings, it was as if ten Nine-Star Dou Shengs, over a hundred Five-to-Six-Star Dou Shengs, and a thousand Half-Saint-level Yimo had been assembled. A force like this could annihilate any being below Dou Di.

Still, as he said, he wasn't afraid. Facing the terrifying Yimo army, Xiao Yan's hands rapidly formed an arcane seal. In an instant, a devastating wave of destruction erupted from his body like a raging tide.

"Demon Wrath Nine Absolutes—Eight Desolations Annihilation!"

The eruption was so overwhelming that even Qing Tan paled. She sensed that if she were hit, she would suffer severe injuries. But before she could summon a defense, the destructive force reached her and Lin Jing—yet to her surprise, it didn't harm them at all.

The Yimo, however, were not so fortunate.

More than ninety percent of them were disintegrated on the spot. The wave expanded outward for tens of thousands of kilometers, vaporizing everything in its path like a divine scourge. The spectacle was both awe-inspiring and terrifying.

Even King-rank Yimo perished immediately under the onslaught. Only True King-level beings survived—and barely at that. All were gravely injured. As for Commander-rank and lower Yimo, they didn't even get a chance to react before being reduced to dust.

Even the likes of the Heaven Seat King, though they had erected defenses in time, couldn't completely withstand it. All of them coughed up blood. Meeting each other's gazes, they saw fear in one another's eyes.

'They never imagined this man could nearly annihilate their entire force… in one blow!'
