Before leaving the spirit field grotto-heaven, Su Xing glanced at his current attribute panel.

It was a truly magnificent attribute panel — the red-tier talents alone were nearly too many to fit.
“Though my cultivation realm is slightly lacking — veteran Great Firmament experts like the White Emperor have naturally already reached Great Firmament Golden Immortal Perfection!”
“But at the Great Firmament Golden Immortal realm, while magical power is certainly important… what matters more is Dao comprehension!”
“And my Dao comprehension is in no way inferior… combined with my Spirit Domain to compensate, that’s why I possess such combat strength!”
Su Xing thought to himself.
His remaining world origin was less than twenty thousand. Converted to origin energy, that was roughly equivalent to twenty billion — still quite sufficient.
“The Lord of the Succubi… the Fourth Legion, it’s time for them to be destroyed!”
“If I don’t eliminate them, I won’t be able to eat or sleep in peace!”
Su Xing sighed, took a single step forward, and departed the spirit field grotto-heaven.
……
War erupted right on schedule!
Led by Su Xing and the Celestial Demon General joining forces, the remaining eighty experts of the Celestial Demon Domain launched their final charge against the foreign race’s Fourth Legion!
Though the numerical disparity was ten thousand to one, even hundreds of thousands to one.
But in battles between immortals and gods, numbers seemed to carry little meaning.
For the powerhouses within the Celestial Demon Prison, slaughtering ordinary foreign race deities at a ratio of one to ten thousand was merely a matter of expending some time.
Moreover, with Su Xing and the Celestial Demon General leading the charge.
The seventh realm Peak Great Dao of Thunder, the supernatural art Myriad Laws World-Ending Thunder.
On offense, he could merge ten thousand thunderbolts into one, unleashing a single world-ending bolt of thunder capable of grievously wounding even a chief god at their peak.
On defense, he could release the myriad thunderbolts — tens of thousands of lightning bolts raining down across the void, each one powerful enough to instantly kill a Supreme Unity Golden Immortal.
Thus, Su Xing alone was an army unto himself. Leading the remaining experts of the Celestial Demon Prison, he carved through the foreign race’s Fourth Legion seven times over.
In merely a month’s time, the majority of the Fourth Legion’s deities had fallen.
The number of foreign race deities who died at Su Xing’s hands was no fewer than ten thousand!
Meanwhile, the Fourth Legion’s two strongest chief gods — Pride and the Lord of Lust — were pinned down by the Celestial Demon General.
It wasn’t until the third month of the war that Su Xing finally found his opportunity, preparing to coordinate with the Celestial Demon General in an attempt to slay the Succubus Chief God.
……
Outside the Fourth Legion’s headquarters, in the core region of the Celestial Demon Prison.
A colossus standing a million zhang (3,330 km) tall, its physical body towering in the void.
Before it stood two foreign race chief gods who had descended in their true forms.
One was as enormous as a planet, shaped like a gigantic insect, its body harboring terrifying void laws.
Seven Deadly Sins — Pride!
A chief god hailing from the Void Clan!
The other chief god’s true form stood ten thousand zhang (33.3 km) tall, shaped like a member of the human race, save for cloven hooves for feet and a pointed tail.
Its countenance was exquisite, brimming with seductive allure — a single glance was enough to ensnare an ordinary Supreme Unity Golden Immortal!
At this moment, the Celestial Demon General fought one against two without losing ground in the slightest!
Void laws continuously eroded the Celestial Demon General’s physical body.
But the Celestial Demon General’s terrifying vitality constantly regenerated, rendering the void laws nearly useless.
Simultaneously, endless seduction and illusions poured into the Celestial Demon General’s soul.
Yet as a descendant of the Wu Clan, the Celestial Demon General’s soul and physical body had long since merged into one, incomparably resilient.
The Celestial Demon General wielded One Force Breaks Ten Thousand Laws — even the seductive illusions could not beguile his heart.
Hundreds of thousands of li away, Su Xing had just slain yet another first-tier deity.
Sensing the Celestial Demon General’s battle, he murmured:
“The entire Fourth Legion has only a few dozen first-tier deities remaining — they can no longer stir up any trouble!”
“The greatest remaining threat is the two chief gods. If we can slay even one, the Fourth Legion will collapse!”
Narrowing his eyes, of the two chief gods, the Void Chief God was clearly the stronger one — not only possessing a formidable physical body, but the void laws he had comprehended were also among the most supreme!
Su Xing suspected that this Void Chief God belonged to the same race as the Void Sovereign, perhaps even a direct bloodline descendant!
“Unfortunately, among the supreme laws, only one Sovereign can emerge from a single lineage!”
“Since the Void Sovereign has already appeared in this world… this Void Chief God has lost all hope of ever reaching the Sovereign realm!”
“Still, as a bloodline descendant of a Sovereign, he truly lives up to the title of Pride…”
Su Xing mused silently.
Compared to the Void Chief God, the Lord of the Succubi was clearly not as powerful!
According to previous intelligence, the law the Lord of the Succubi had mastered was Lust!
This law could beguile the mind and trap others in illusions.
Thus, the Lord of the Succubi’s physical body was not particularly formidable, leaning instead toward psychic-type abilities.
If the Succubus Chief God were to fully unleash the law of Lust, even a Great Firmament Golden Immortal could be seduced if caught off guard.
Unfortunately, the Celestial Demon General had cultivated for tens of millions of years without ever approaching a woman, his Daoheart steadfast to an astonishing degree.
The Lord of Lust could only resort to illusion techniques in an attempt to beguile the Celestial Demon General.
“Tsk tsk, if the White Emperor were here instead, facing the Lord of the Succubi, he might actually suffer if he let his guard down… but the Celestial Demon General…”
Su Xing shook his head. This was precisely why the Celestial Demon General had been able to hold this position for millions of years.
After slaying that first-tier deity, Su Xing adjusted his aura and employed the seventh realm Dao of Cause and Effect and Destiny to conceal the karmic secrets.
Then he took a single step and appeared a thousand li (500 km) from the battlefield where the Celestial Demon General and the two chief gods clashed.
At such close range, detection by the two chief gods was practically inevitable.
Therefore, Su Xing hesitated no longer — he unleashed his Spirit Domain at full power!
His seventh realm Sword Dao instantly surged by a minor stage, reaching seventh realm Minor Mastery!
With a thought, a flash of sword light streaked across the void, striking directly at the target a thousand li (500 km) away.
There was no surprise whatsoever…
The sword light traversed a thousand li (500 km) and pierced straight through the Lord of the Succubi’s heart.
However, with a chief god’s formidable resilience, how could a strike to a vital point result in instant death?
Still, the Major Mastery Sword One had grievously wounded the Lord of the Succubi in a single blow.
“Damn it! Pride… the other human has arrived too!”
Blood continuously seeped from the Lord of the Succubi’s chest — clearly, this sword strike had inflicted no minor injury.
However, the foreign race’s life force was inherently powerful, and the wounds from the devastating blow were rapidly healing.
Seeing the Lord of the Succubi grievously wounded in a single strike, a cautious gleam appeared in Pride’s eyes.
“Be careful. If we can’t win… retreat into the void first and wait for the Master Race to send reinforcements!”
Pride’s gaze was solemn, though most of his attention remained fixed on the Celestial Demon General.
A single Celestial Demon General was already this troublesome — what more with another Great Firmament Golden Immortal added to the mix?
On the other side, upon seeing Su Xing grievously wound the Lord of the Succubi with a single strike, the Celestial Demon General threw his head back and roared with laughter:
“Today is the day you die!”
With that, the Celestial Demon General swung the massive battle-axe in his hands, the surging primordial energy nearly shattering the surrounding void.
Meanwhile, after his sword strike from a thousand li (500 km) away grievously wounded the Lord of the Succubi, Su Xing swiftly revealed himself.
There in the void, Su Xing and the Celestial Demon General stood side by side.
Across from them loomed two chief gods radiating terrifying auras!
This was the first time Su Xing had faced chief gods head-on in reality.
Strangely, he felt not the slightest hint of nervousness.
In fact, Su Xing’s heart brimmed with confidence — this time, they would definitely slay a chief god!
This confidence stemmed from Su Xing’s ever-growing strength.
The Su Xing of today no longer needed to conceal himself!
In all the Three Thousand Worlds, no being could threaten Su Xing’s life…
At present, that Sovereign had not yet descended. As long as Su Xing didn’t fall into the trap laid by multiple foreign race chief gods, he had nothing more to worry about!
“Then, the time has come to test over a decade of bitter cultivation!”
“After today’s battle, the name Su Xing shall spread far across the Three Thousand Worlds…”
Su Xing drew a deep breath. He knew that after this battle, his identity as an heir of the Luotian Sect could no longer be concealed.
At the same time, the foreign races would also receive warning — after all, the death of a chief god was no small matter!
“But all of that can wait. For now, let me defeat the enemies before me…”
Su Xing gripped his spirit sword Blackice and struck first, charging toward the Succubus Chief God.
The Celestial Demon General also let out a wild laugh, hefting his massive axe and firmly suppressing the Void Chief God.
Facing the aggressive assault of Su Xing and the Celestial Demon General, the two chief gods on the opposing side showed no signs of retreat.
Perhaps in the eyes of these two chief gods, everyone was at the same realm. Even if there was a gap in strength, one should not flee without fighting!
And Su Xing exploited precisely this mentality to begin suppressing the two chief gods!
The Succubus Chief God specialized in charm techniques and illusory arts. Even Su Xing dared not take her lightly.
What was most troublesome was that when fighting the Succubus Chief God, her terrifying psychic-type attacks forced Su Xing to expend primordial energy on defense.
Fortunately, his primordial energy carried the property of One Force Breaks Ten Thousand Laws — even the Succubus Chief God’s charm techniques could not penetrate it.
The only issue was that the consumption of primordial energy was rather significant…
As for the Celestial Demon General’s side, Su Xing had no need to worry at all.
With the Celestial Demon General’s strength, he naturally suppressed the Void Chief God with ease, and could even occasionally free a hand to attack the Succubus Chief God, “relieving the pressure” on Su Xing.
The two opposing chief gods seemed to have discerned that in the partnership between Su Xing and the Celestial Demon General, the Celestial Demon General was the main threat.
Moreover, Su Xing’s “frail” body looked far easier to kill than the Celestial Demon General’s no matter how you looked at it.
And so, the two chief gods gradually began devising ways to critically wound Su Xing.
Yet Su Xing and the Celestial Demon General acted as if they hadn’t noticed at all, continuing to employ their fixed tactics.
This initial probing phase of the battle alone lasted a full seven days.
On the eighth day of battle, the Void and Succubus Chief Gods struck first!
A bewitching light flashed in the Succubus Chief God’s eyes, and then a staggering psychic wave surged straight toward Su Xing’s soul.
In an instant, Su Xing’s soul seemed to suffer a devastating blow, and he froze in place.
At the same time, the Void Chief God nearby opened the terrifying maw of his massive insectoid body, and a beam of silver shockwave hurtled toward Su Xing’s physical form.
The terrifying void laws instantly engulfed Su Xing…
When the silver radiance faded, Su Xing appeared weakened and listless, his primordial energy seemingly depleted by no small amount.
The two foreign race chief gods exchanged a glance upon seeing this — they had clearly found a “vulnerability”!
The battle that followed continued as a fierce melee between both sides.
Su Xing and the Celestial Demon General joined forces against the two foreign race chief gods.
Though the Celestial Demon General could firmly suppress the Void Sovereign, Su Xing seemed to be “dragging them down” — he kept having his weaknesses exploited, and the Celestial Demon General always had to come to his rescue.
If this continued, the two chief gods might eventually gain the upper hand.
And so, the battle persisted for a full three months.
During this period, the Succubus Chief God unleashed her charm power over a dozen times to seize control of Su Xing, while the Void Chief God used void laws each time to “critically wound” him!
After more than a dozen such instances, Su Xing had accumulated quite “severe injuries”!
However, throughout this period, the Succubus Chief God remained cautious and careful. Even when her charm had struck Su Xing, she never engaged him in close combat.
Until…
Five months after the battle erupted!
Having endured dozens of attacks from void laws, Su Xing’s aura had become thoroughly “weakened.”
And at this point, the Lord of the Succubi could finally restrain herself no longer!
After yet another beam of “charming light” struck Su Xing, the Void Chief God’s void laws surged toward him simultaneously.
At that moment, an eerie glow also radiated from the Lord of the Succubi’s body, with illusory phantom images flickering beside her.
This was the Lord of the Succubi’s innate talent — “Psychic Domination”!
Any being whose psychic power was lower than the Lord of the Succubi’s would be controlled, reduced to a puppet.
Even Great Firmament Golden Immortals and chief gods were no exception!
However, this technique had its drawbacks — when activating it, she had to be extremely close to the target.
Furthermore, the weaker the target’s body, the higher the success rate!
And at this moment, what the Lord of the Succubi intended was to completely dominate Su Xing, turning him into her puppet!
At the thought of soon possessing a human race puppet at the Great Firmament Golden Immortal realm, the Succubus Chief God couldn’t help but tremble with pleasure throughout her entire body, letting out a moan, her face flushed with a peculiar blush.
She seemed to already be imagining how she would torment Su Xing momentarily…
And at the same time, Su Xing had finally waited for this very opportunity!
When that beam of light symbolizing psychic domination fell upon Su Xing, he displayed a look of confusion and struggle right on cue.
His Master-stage acting skills came into play at this critical moment, making it appear as though he were resisting the psychic domination.
The Lord of the Succubi’s heart leapt with joy at the sight. She drew even closer to Su Xing, intent on exerting the full force of her psychic domination.
“Now!”
Su Xing reacted instantly.
In the distance, the Celestial Demon General swung his axe with all his might, braving the Void Chief God’s void laws head-on as he launched an attack at the Lord of the Succubi.
Under normal circumstances, the Lord of the Succubi would have easily dodged.
But at this moment, she was at the critical juncture of “dominating” Su Xing — how could she allow all her efforts to go to waste?
The Lord of the Succubi erected an invisible psychic barrier.
With the power of a psychic-type chief god, her mental force was sufficient to affect reality… sufficient to block physical attacks.
However… the Lord of the Succubi had still underestimated the Celestial Demon General’s strength.
This axe strike clearly exceeded the defensive limits of the psychic barrier… In the end, the Lord of the Succubi’s entire abdomen was cleaved open — she was severely wounded!
Yet the Lord of the Succubi endured the blow without uttering a sound.
“The perfect opportunity has arrived!”
Su Xing sighed inwardly.
Over months of combat, Su Xing wasn’t the only one who had been injured!
Perhaps the Lord of the Succubi herself hadn’t even noticed that her aura had diminished to only two-thirds of her peak.
And after taking that axe blow head-on, her aura plummeted to half in a short span of time.
And so, Su Xing made his move!
One moment, he appeared trapped in struggle and confusion — the next, Su Xing’s eyes snapped wide open with sudden clarity.
His once-ordinary eyes transformed in an instant into Double Pupils!
The power of yin and yang shot forth from Su Xing’s Double Pupils, momentarily overwhelming the Lord of the Succubi!
The Double Pupils anomaly feared no illusory charms and could shake the very heart and soul!
At that instant, the Lord of the Succubi was frozen by Su Xing’s intimidation, her entire body rigid in the void for the span of a single breath.
Simultaneously, Su Xing unleashed his Spirit Domain in full!
The entire Spirit Domain — millions of li in radius, carrying world power approaching that of a Medium Chiliocosm — was mobilized by Su Xing in this single moment!
Then, the Great Dao of Thunder briefly broke through into the eighth realm!
“Myriad Laws… World-Ending Thunder!”
In an instant, lightning coiled around Su Xing’s entire body.
It was as if ten thousand Thunder Dragons were dancing wildly through the void…
Finally, they merged into one true Thunder Dragon!
The Thunder Dragon roared with frenzied fury, carrying terrifying might as it shot straight toward the space between the Lord of the Succubi’s brows.
This strike was infused with Su Xing’s eighth realm Great Dao of Thunder.
And it further triggered… the No Martial Virtue talent!
This single strike was in no way inferior to the White Emperor’s sword thrust that had pierced to the very essence of the Great Dao of the Sword!
The Thunder Dragon surged forth, sweeping boundless purple radiance, devouring the Lord of the Succubi’s soul in the blink of an eye!
The chief god’s terrifying vitality, her boundless psychic power and divinity… shattered and collapsed in an instant!
In the moment before death, the Lord of the Succubi’s eyes still held confusion and terror…
It seemed she couldn’t fathom why the human before her had been able to break free from her control.
As the Myriad Laws thunder gradually dissipated, eerie sounds echoed through the void, like… the wailing of vengeful spirits!
At the same time, the Heavenly Dao of the Celestial Demon Domain seemed to sense something.
It let out a series of clear, ringing cries…
Then, a sudden spirit rain fell across the void…
A chief god had fallen, and the Heavenly Dao celebrated!
Thus, one of the Seven Deadly Sins — the Lord of Lust, the Succubus Chief God… was dead!
After the Succubus Chief God’s fall, a white vortex suddenly rose from where she had stood.
An invisible hand seemed to be drawing in the Lord of the Succubi’s remains — her scattered divinity and godhood — absorbing them entirely.
But how could Su Xing allow that to happen?
With lightning reflexes, Su Xing snatched the greater portion of the Lord of the Succubi’s posthumous legacy from within the vortex…
