"Ripple of the Heavenly Demoness is so powerful, how could Wang Xiaoqiang escape from her grasp? Could it be that Ripple was killed by Wang Xiaoqiang in turn?"

The North Sea Demon King was extremely doubtful and hesitant to make a move against Wang Xiaoqiang. If things were really as he suspected, wouldn't that be courting disaster?

If Ripple couldn't kill Wang Xiaoqiang, how could he, the North Sea Demon King, do it?!

However, this was the best opportunity to kill Wang Xiaoqiang. If they missed this chance, it would be even harder in the future.

The North Sea Demon King weighed his options bitterly, and his resolve hardened. He pointed a finger skyward, summoning a peculiar demon light that shot up and exploded like fireworks in the sky, releasing a dazzling light.

Soon after this demon light was released, three demon generals arrived in a hurry, bringing thirty demon soldiers with them. These demon soldiers looked extremely fearful of the North Sea Demon King. The leading elder demon general bowed deeply with utmost respect, "Great King, what are your orders?"

The North Sea Demon King pointed in the direction Wang Xiaoqiang had gone and commanded, "Go, catch up with Wang Xiaoqiang and kill him!"

"Yes!" The elder demon general responded, then led his group in pursuit of Wang Xiaoqiang.

...

The moon cast shadows in the west, and it was already the latter half of the night.

After a bout with Ripple, Wang Xiaoqiang felt slightly fatigued. He descended to a nearby island after flying for some time.

First, he killed the dozen or so demon species on the island, dug out their demon hearts, decapitated their heads, and tied them to ropes. Then he entered a dense forest on the island and released Little Qing.

Little Qing exhaled a long breath of turbid air, her beautiful eyes turning to Wang Xiaoqiang. "Master, what are your orders?"

Wang Xiaoqiang said, "Little Qing, you keep watch for me. I need to sleep."

Little Qing obediently nodded, then sat down by a big tree, spreading her arms.

Wang Xiaoqiang sat beside her, lay in her warm and soft embrace, stretched comfortably, and quickly fell asleep.

Little Qing hugged Wang Xiaoqiang, her face showing a look of happiness.

Half a Stick of Incense's time later, the demon race under the North Sea Demon King had quietly landed on the island. Surrounding amidst a formation, they moved towards the forest area where Wang Xiaoqiang and Little Qing were.

A figure stood quietly in the sky above the island.

This figure was none other than the North Sea Demon King.

...

Noticing the vast demonic power fluctuations around them, Little Qing panicked slightly and woke Wang Xiaoqiang with a push.

Wang Xiaoqiang swept his divine sense and found three demon generals and thirty demon soldiers. He smirked disdainfully, "Just a bunch of cannon fodder, not worth worrying about. But why would these demons court death?"

While thinking this, Wang Xiaoqiang scanned the sky with his divine sense and spotted the North Sea Demon King high above.

With a playful sneer, Wang Xiaoqiang released three avatars.

The three avatars followed the intention of their master, each spreading out to meet the three approaching demon generals.

Soon, the sounds of battle rang out beyond the forest, the clash of magic treasures and demon artifacts, and the cries of demons...

From high above, the North Sea Demon King watched the island intently. He had sent his subordinates to challenge Wang Xiaoqiang, not expecting them to kill him,

but rather to sacrifice themselves.

The true purpose was to test Wang Xiaoqiang's current strength and find out if he had any fortuitous encounters beneath the sea.

Unexpectedly, Wang Xiaoqiang did not confront the demon soldiers and generals himself and instead sent out three avatars to deal with them.

Seeing this, the North Sea Demon King felt helpless.

Unable to gauge Wang Xiaoqiang's true strength, the North Sea Demon King grew anxious. Chomping on his teeth, he steeled himself and descended onto the island, landing about ten meters in front of Wang Xiaoqiang and Little Qing.

"North Sea Demon King, I've been looking for you..." Seeing the North Sea Demon King appear, Wang Xiaoqiang stood up, fixating on him with a playful smile. At the same time, he willed Little Qing back into the Sumeru Ring.

Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang so at ease, the North Sea Demon King grew even more uneasy, but outwardly, he maintained a calm demeanor, yelling, "Wang Xiaoqiang, you're about to die, yet you're still so stubborn..."

"Want to kill me?" Wang Xiaoqiang smiled easily, "You've already missed your chance..."

As Wang Xiaoqiang spoke, he immediately drew out the Sun-Shooting Bow, aimed it at the North Sea Demon King, more precisely at the demon heart, pulled the bowstring, and a Gang Qi Arrow sparkled with electric arcs in his right hand, emanating tremendous power.

The weak point for cultivators is the Dantian.

The weak point for demons is the demon heart.

The North Sea Demon King was no exception; his demon body could morph endlessly, regenerate, but the demon heart was his only vital point and extremely fragile.

Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang's arrow aimed at his heart, the North Sea Demon King didn't dare to be careless. With a wave of his hand, a fiendish demon suddenly materialized in front of him, hovering three feet before his chest.

"Roar!!" The fiendish demon opened its eyes, exhaling a breath and letting out a furious roar towards Wang Xiaoqiang.

With a cold smile, Wang Xiaoqiang released the bowstring.

Whizz!

The sound of an arrow breaking through the air filled the scene as the Gang Qi Arrow charged forth, brimming with electric arcs.

The North Sea Demon King's eyes gleamed, a hand gesture, and the fiendish demon spat out an Evil Qi Arrow in response.

Boom!!

The two arrows collided mid-air, exploding into nothingness.

Seeing that Wang Xiaoqiang had not used any new spell techniques or magic treasures, the North Sea Demon King relaxed slightly. With a wave of his hand, an Evil Qi vortex formed in his palm.

In a flash, the Evil Qi vortex left his hand, grew larger as it caught the wind, and spun constantly.

From the vortex's heart, fiendish demons emerged one after another.

Seeing that the North Sea Demon King was about to activate the "Celestial Chess Formation," Wang Xiaoqiang willed a Demon Droplet to shoot out from the Sumeru Ring, spinning rapidly towards the emerging fiendish demons.

Then, a dreadful sound echoed...

Whizz... Boom... Whizz... Boom... Whizz... Boom...

Accompanied by these sounds, each fiendish demon exploded violently, demonic power scattering, and Evil Qi dissipating...

Witnessing this, the North Sea Demon King's expression changed drastically. Watching his painstakingly refined fiendish demons perish under the enemy's trump card, he felt both heartache and helplessly scanned for the weapon Wang Xiaoqiang had used.

However, when he released his divine sense, he couldn't lock onto the Demon Droplet. The Droplet, moving as fast as light, was impossible to track with the naked eye, and its pure demonic power could interfere with divine sense.

With his divine sense unable to lock onto the Demon Droplet, the North Sea Demon King was at a loss. As he saw the fiendish demons fall one by one, over half perishing, he dismissed the vortex generating them and sprang into the air, attempting to flee.

But as he ascended, there came a thud, his demon body trembled, his eyes widened in horror.

With another thud, the Demon Droplet burst through his chest, bringing forth a spray of blood.

With a splutter, the North Sea Demon King spat a mouthful of blood, his gaze fixed on the rotating Demon Droplet, exclaiming in shock, "De... mon... Droplet!"

"Surprised!?" Wang Xiaoqiang stared at the North Sea Demon King with a playful smile.

"How... could… this… be…" The North Sea Demon King struggled to speak, then with a thud, fell dead, his demon heart shattered by the Demon Droplet.

A surge of pure demonic power seeped from the demon heart, gushing from his broken chest.

Wang Xiaoqiang released 300,000 Spiritual Springs and controlled them with his will to absorb the demonic power from the North Sea Demon King's chest. (To be continued.
