The green light dissipated, revealing the true form of the equipment: two incredibly thick iron bracelets.

There were no intricate carvings on them, giving off a sense of simplicity in its grand form. The material was extraordinary, exuding a heavy and ancient aura, definitely not ordinary iron.

"The second piece of the Immortal King's set!"

Bai Pu was astonished. He didn't expect to find a part of the Immortal King set in a hidden compartment of this office.

Originally, Bai Pu had considered selling the [Immortal King's Iron Waist Guard] he owned, but without a suitable buyer and not wanting to sell it to the Superstar Alliance to aid the enemy, he put it aside temporarily.

Who would have thought that he would seize one of the three pieces of the Immortal King set held by the Superstar Alliance.

"Why doesn't the Superstar Alliance give the Immortal King set pieces to a suitable Awakened to wear?"

Bai Pu pondered slightly and realized he may have been in a mental blind spot.

As a solo adventurer, he naturally kept any good equipment for himself, even if it was temporarily unused, he would store it in his storage space for safekeeping.

But the Superstar Alliance is a large Awakened force and not run by a single person.

The Immortal King set pieces are collective property of the Superstar Alliance and cannot be privately held by anyone or kept in a storage space!

In short, it's a matter of mistrust, and Bai Pu benefited from it—if these precious pieces were in an Advanced Awakened's storage space, Bai Pu wouldn't have had a chance to steal them.

"Being a solo adventurer has its advantages." Bai Pu shook his head and laughed.

The advantage of being solo is having a singular focus, with all resources concentrated on one individual. The downside is being weak and helpless, especially when facing large group missions.

Bai Pu put away the [Immortal King's Iron Bracelets] and checked around the office but didn't find any other spiritual items.

He initially thought he could find some valuable Spirit Realm gold and silver to gain some spiritual points and replenish his poor account, but it seems he was out of luck.

Suddenly, a noise came from the balcony outside, as if there were multiple awakened moving around.

Bai Pu felt a warning sign, a chilling sensation making his scalp tingle!

He immediately performed a standard tactical belly-flop maneuver.

The next second, a giant scythe-shaped demonic power Qi Force sliced across Bai Pu's back like helicopter blades. The roaring noise was incessant.

The room's ceiling where Bai Pu was located vanished.

Looking up, he saw the gloomy sky of the Demon Abyss Border Land!

A slender demonic figure stood amidst the ruins.

Demon General, Hunting Scythe!

Just now, this terrifying Demon General attacked the floor where Bai Pu was using a powerful skill, decapitating half the floor. The shattered bricks turned to rubble and crashed to the ground with a loud rumble.

Needless to say, if Bai Pu hadn't dodged, he would have suffered serious injuries from this strike!

However, the true target of this strike wasn't Bai Pu; it was a group of Superstar Alliance Awakened.

Bai Pu could calculate, and so could these Superstar Alliance Awakened!

They deliberately lured the Demon General Hunting Scythe to the central building Bai Pu had invaded.

The one who orchestrated this was the nefarious Awakened named Owl, who had dealt with Bai Pu twice.

As someone who ventured into the Heart Demon: Oath World at the same time as Bai Pu, Owl knew far more inside information than ordinary Awakened.

He was in the Demon Camp, although unaware of the pursuit of Dongbo Cheng and Bai Pu by the two Demon Generals, he had seen the Hundred-eyed Demon left by Bai Pu on the Dark Abyss cliff.

When Owl arrived at the Dark Abyss cliff, the two Demon Generals had just successfully entered the Demon Abyss Border Land and disappeared. So, before falling into the abyss, Owl didn't realize the two Demon Generals had entered first.

As soon as he arrived at the Demon Abyss, seeing the two Demon Generals wreaking havoc in the Border Land, Owl felt something was amiss.

He knew that Bai Pu had willingly jumped into the abyss, synchronously entering the Border Land!

Afterward, Bai Pu broke into the central building, crippling and driving away the ten Awakened guarding it. This information was relayed to Owl through a personal information terminal, enlightening him to Bai Pu's overall plan!

— Bai Pu was using the two Demon Generals as vanguards to destabilize the Demon Abyss Border Land, so he could muddle through!

Owl reported this situation to the outside.

The high-ranking members of the Superstar Alliance were, of course, furious! If not for the level restriction in the Border Land, those high-level Awakened would have long rushed in to tear Bai Pu apart!

The high-ranking officials gave Owl a strict order to drive Bai Pu out of the Demon Abyss Border Land!

Once Bai Pu is forced out of the Demon Abyss and appears at the external passage exit, high-level Awakened from the Superstar Alliance will surely deal with him!

Owl wasn't foolish and soon grasped a key point.

Bai Pu belongs to the Guardian Camp and has stolen the Demon General Ghost Leather's items. This was information Owl had already obtained.

So, Bai Pu was the primary target of the two Demon Generals! They were merely collateral damage.

Owl lamented that he was in the Demon Camp this time and had previously dealt with Demon General Ghost Leather!

Pity that in the Spirit Realm, identities and appearances are illusions, and the token proving he belonged to the Demon Camp and could communicate with demons—the Demon Ghost Tongue—had disappeared!

Returning to the Border Land, he reverted to his original appearance, and Ghost Leather couldn't recognize him.

It's worth noting that Ghost Leather recognized Bai Pu upon his return not through appearance or demeanor, but through the aura of Black Emperor's True Blood—

The aura of Black Emperor's True Blood still lingered on Bai Pu's storage space [Spider Demon Dominator Shield].

If not, Owl could have just explained the situation, releasing the two Demon Generals to chase Bai Pu, who would surely have to flee the Demon Abyss!

Even so, Owl quickly devised a plan.

Their advantage was numbers.

Didn't the Demon Generals enjoy slaughter?

They adopted a strategy of sacrificing people to the Demon General to draw his attention to where Bai Pu was, the central building!

Anyway, while in the Border Land, they could return to reality at any time. As long as they left just before the blade struck, they would be fine.

Thus, the Demon General Hunting Scythe was gradually lured to the central building.

However, Owl didn't account for one thing.

As the Demon General Hunting Scythe was lured, every strike was driven by a bloodthirsty desire to kill and drink blood!

Ironically, the Awakened sent out as "sacrifices" all mastered the technique of escaping in the nick of time, transforming into a phantom just as the scythe howled close!

The Demon General Hunting Scythe's bloodthirsty desire went unsatisfied, like a provoked tiger, his rage built to the brink!

So when he was led to the central building, seeing the Awakened climbing on the third floor of the central building, the Demon General Hunting Scythe didn't continue with ordinary slashes.

Instead, he swung a terrifying sweep from afar, shaving half a floor off the three-story building!

[Scythe of Death]!

This strike was so terrifying that the Awakened acting as bait were instantly killed by the fearsome giant scythe Qi Force without even reacting!

Fortunately, Owl was cautious enough not to act as bait. Otherwise, even with Asura Blood Mist, it wouldn't have been any use, especially since Asura Blood Mist was still on cooldown.

"Although some unexpected costs were incurred... the result is good!"

Owl watched Bai Pu get up, regretting not killing him on the spot, licking his lips, "Facing the terrifying Demon General, no matter how formidable you are, Bai Pu, you surely can't cope!"
