Yin Yue Mountain.

In the valley churning with black mist, gazing at the mountain wall ahead, where Qiongqi is firmly locked by the Soul-locking Array, his eyes are filled with greed.

The mountain wall ahead is blood-red, as if soaked in blood for countless years, appearing extremely sinister and exuding a thick scent of blood.

On the blood-red stone wall, dense, mysterious runes are carved, and in the grooves of these runes, red light glimmers, with blood faintly flowing within these runes.

Qiongqi is currently nailed to the stone wall, with his back against numerous blood-colored runes. Large blood nails are pierced into his limbs, causing blood to continuously ooze from the wounds, while dazzling blood-colored runes flow on the blood nails.

These constantly flowing blood-colored runes emit eerie blood light, connecting with the runes on the stone wall, forming a large array that emits a terrifying aura, tightly locking Qiongqi inside.

As the Demon Monarch, Fang Yuan has his own methods to deal with Qiongqi.

Although Qiongqi is highly adept at escaping, slippery and elusive, in Fang Yuan's hands, no matter how many tricks Qiongqi has, they are useless.

Soul-locking Array!

Ordinary suppressing arrays can only lock the physical body, but Fang Yuan's Soul-locking Array is different; it can lock not only Qiongqi's physical body, but also his soul.

The blood sticks nailed into Qiongqi's limbs are Soul-Stabilizing Nails crafted by Fang Yuan, using numerous spiritual materials and a significant amount of beast soul's essence blood.

Once the Soul-Stabilizing Nail is driven into the body, the enemy's physical body not only gets pinned down but also their soul, rendering them unable to use any means while their soul is suppressed.

"Hahaha, big brother has given this Demon Monarch a great gift!"

Fang Yuan looked at the still unconscious Qiongqi and let out a sinister laugh.

The overwhelming Blood Qi emanating from Qiongqi's body made him drool, having some impatience.

Thinking of this, Fang Yuan couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude towards his big brother.

Big brother has assisted him countless times; even if he is a ruthless and murderous Demon Monarch, he can't help but be moved.

Such great kindness, Fang Yuan vowed to repay in the future!

With resolve made, Fang Yuan turned to look at the Vajra Giant Ape beside him and commanded, "Vajra, you head out first!"

The Vajra Giant Ape was initially stunned upon hearing this, but soon understood what his big brother intended, quickly suggesting, "Big brother, just swallowing this dog thing now is too easy on him, isn't it? This guy has made you carry an enormous unwarranted responsibility, he deserves death!

Little brother thinks I should awaken him first, then severely torture him, making him unable to live or die, and finally, big brother, you swallow this dog thing whole.

Hehe, big brother, what do you think of little brother's plan?"

The Vajra Giant Ape showed a fawning expression, having gone too far in front of his big brother before, and now needed to boost his image and contribute more.

"Enough! You first..."

Though tempted, Fang Yuan couldn't wait any longer to swallow Qiongqi and hesitated for a moment, shaking his head.

Before he could finish speaking, a voice came.

"Where is this? Black Demon Tiger!"

Waking from unconsciousness, Qiongqi painfully opened his eyes, puzzled by everything in front of him; upon seeing Fang Yuan, he let out a cry of shock.

"Heh, Qiongqi, you're awake?"

Seeing Qiongqi awake, Fang Yuan's eyes flashed coldly, and he laughed maliciously.

"Damn it! Where is this? How did this king end up here? Where's that bastard Thunder Tiger? Get him to come out here for this king!"

Qiongqi was furious, shouting at Fang Yuan.

"Hmph, Qiongqi, it seems you haven't recognized your situation! You're about to die, yet you dare act so insolent!"

Fang Yuan said ominously.

"You..."

Coming to his senses, Qiongqi finally started to understand his predicament, seeing himself sealed on the stone wall, his heart grew alarmed, instinctively wanting to escape.

But the events following made his heart and spirit grow cold, for no matter how he tried to stir his abilities, there was no reaction.

Growing fearful, Qiongqi looked at Fang Yuan facing him and defiantly shouted, "Black Demon Tiger, what have you done to this king! Release this king immediately, or you'll regret it!"

"Audacious! Dare to curse my big brother, you are on the way to death!"

Hearing that Qiongqi dared to insult his big brother, the Vajra Giant Ape strode forward imposingly and directly slapped Qiongqi several times!

Slap slap slap~

The Vajra Giant Ape's large paw swung towards Qiongqi's head, constantly hitting, leaving Qiongqi dizzy and disoriented.

Behind them, Fang Yuan frowned; such a scene reminded him of some sad memories.

"Stupid ape, how dare you! This king will strip your skin and extract your tendons!"

Being slapped several times by the Vajra Giant Ape, Qiongqi was initially dumbfounded, then snapped back with humiliation, glaring at the Vajra Giant Ape full of hatred, roaring furiously.

He wished he could charge forward now and tear the Vajra Giant Ape to shreds.

"I'm a Giant Ape, not some monkey; today I'll teach you a lesson!"

Angered by Qiongqi's words, the Vajra Giant Ape furiously slapped Qiongqi twice more, swelling half of Qiongqi's face.

"Enough, Vajra, stand down! Hand the rest over to me!"

At this moment, Fang Yuan spoke.

"Okay, big brother!"

Upon hearing his big brother's command, the Vajra Giant Ape obediently retreated, glaring at Qiongqi as he left.

Once the Vajra Giant Ape left the valley, Fang Yuan slowly approached Qiongqi, mouth open, greed in his eyes.

"Black Demon Tiger... What are you trying to do?"

"I warn you, release this king immediately! Or face the consequences!"

Seeing Fang Yuan's ill-intentioned look, Qiongqi threatened with panic.

"Heh, come, be the sustenance on this Demon Monarch's path to ascension!"

Fang Yuan laughed sinisterly, opening his mouth, unleashing an endless flood of blood light that enveloped Qiongqi.

In an instant, a powerful suction pulled the Blood Qi from Qiongqi's body.

"Ah—! Black Demon Tiger, how dare you, ah~"

"No! Black Demon Tiger, you deserve death, this king will never let you succeed!"

"Even if this king dies, you won't get your way, ah—!"

"Let this king go, this king will agree to anything..."

"Black Demon Tiger, spare me, I am willing to submit..."

Qiongqi let out a series of miserable cries.

Initially, he berated Fang Yuan continuously, but felt the power within him rapidly fade with time, faced with death's threat, Qiongqi began to plead.

Unfortunately, Fang Yuan remained unmoved.

Half an hour later, Qiongqi's screams ceased abruptly, leaving behind just a pile of bones.

Having absorbed a massive amount of high-quality Blood Qi, Fang Yuan let out a long howl to the sky, his aura rapidly ascending.

Boom!

With a resounding roar echoing within his body, Fang Yuan's aura surged, a terrifying force bursting forth, sweeping throughout, causing the fiendish ranks of Yin Yue Mountain to tremble!

"Hahaha, sixth stage! The sixth stage!! This Demon Monarch has finally reached the sixth stage!!!"
