I picked up the scattered attributes

the reason is simple--

Golden Roc Demon King Ying Chengpeng, along with another mysterious demon king, had already arrived. Their faces were grim as they stared at the ground: "Unfortunately, we were still a step too late. This guy faked his death, shed his skin, and escaped!"

……

Chapter 0174

"Moo-"

Niu Mang stomped his foot hard, cracking the ground, and snorted out two heavy breaths, grumbling angrily, "Ying Chengpeng, are you even capable? If not, go home and have some babies!"

"Stupid ox, if you hadn't been talking so much nonsense and had charged in earlier, would this guy have been able to escape?" The Golden Roc Demon King snorted irritably.

"Pah! Old Niu clearly said he was going to approach secretly and ambush this guy from behind, but you couldn't resist coming at the first opportunity. Now that you've been discovered, can you blame Old Niu?" Niu Mang retorted without showing any weakness, his feet treading on lightning.

"That's because you, you stupid ox, were gnawing on the peonies by the roadside when you got close to the Heavenly Serpent, that's why I reminded you not to make any noise!" the Golden Roc Demon King roared angrily.

"You don't understand. The old ox was nibbling on a peony to adjust its state in preparation for battle, but now you've ruined it all!"

The Blue-Eyed Thunder Ox grew angrier as he spoke, and suddenly stomped his foot hard, causing more cracks to appear in the ground, even spreading to Feng Xia's front, forcing him to dodge.

Through the conversation between the two demon kings, Feng Xia roughly figured out three things.

First, Ying Chengpeng did indeed go to chase after the fake avatar created by Feng Xia as originally planned. However, to Feng Xia's surprise, another demon king was also with Ying Chengpeng. As a result, the power generated by the self-destruction of the fake avatar did not seriously injure Ying Chengpeng, but only caused some injuries to the two demon kings.

This alone shows that Feng Xia and the others are still far behind the Demon King in a direct confrontation.

Despite the three Yuan Dan Realm cultivators unleashing dozens of divine abilities and taking advantage of the surprise attack, they ultimately failed to kill a demon king, only managing to injure the Golden Roc Demon King!

The Heavenly Serpent Demon King from before was a complete accident.

"I deliberately left various clues near the Black Wind to mislead Ying Chengpeng. It seems he has indeed fallen for it. The only thing I didn't expect is that there really is such a demon king who matches the clues I left!"

What made Feng Xia even more amused and exasperated was that, perhaps because Ying Chengpeng and Niu Mang had made such a grand journey, they had alerted too many powerful demonic beasts along the way. Even the Heavenly Serpent Demon King had received the news and suspected that the two were chasing some extraordinary treasure!

After all, the two sides are enemies. Even if they can't seize the treasure, it's good to stir things up and annoy the other side.

At the beginning, Ying Chengpeng and Niu Mang were traveling ahead, while the Heavenly Serpent Demon King was chasing behind. When Ying Chengpeng discovered the aura of the fake avatar and turned around to attack, he happened to run into the Heavenly Serpent Demon King.

Then, at that moment, the fake avatar created by Feng Xia... exploded!

Feng Xia pondered, if he were the Golden Roc Demon King, faced with such "ironclad evidence" in front of him, he wouldn't care about anything else, and would of course charge forward without saying a word!

Under the clash of heavenly thunder and earthly fire, the two sides immediately engaged in a fierce battle, resulting in injuries and fatalities. The Heavenly Serpent Demon King was particularly bewildered, having no idea what had happened from beginning to end. By the time he came to his senses, he had already been severely injured!

If it weren't for his numerous methods and the incredibly strange nature of his poisons, he might have died there.

This is why when he met Feng Xia, he was almost paralyzed and unable to take care of himself after being hit by Feng Xia's Heavenly Dragon Eight-Tone Bell.

At that time, the Heavenly Serpent Demon King had already suffered extremely serious injuries, and his strength was less than 30% of what it used to be!

Even so, he eventually managed to shed his skin and escape!

"And then there's the final, third thing..."

Watching the two demon kings argue endlessly, mocking each other, yet helping each other like fathers, Feng Xia subconsciously opened his mouth. Only then did he realize a crucial question...

"Did Ying Chengpeng not realize at all that I was the murderer who killed his son and his incarnation?" A strange thought arose in Feng Xia's mind.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that Ying Chengpeng never saw his face from beginning to end.

Moreover, even if they had actually met, Feng Xia has now used the Creation Profound Art to change his appearance and aura. If Ying Chengpeng can still recognize him, then he wouldn't mind being Ying Chengpeng's father!

"That will be fun."

"Fellow Daoist, may I ask how I should address you?"

Finally, the two demon kings realized Feng Xia's presence. After letting out a cold snort, they reluctantly stopped arguing and then cast curious glances at Feng Xia.

"You wouldn't understand even if I told you," Feng Xia said calmly, shaking his head.

"Oh? Since we don't know, then we should listen even more." Ying Chengpeng laughed heartily, his eagle eyes flashing as he looked Feng Xia up and down. "I see that your strength is quite outstanding among all the lords. I suppose you are not far from the King level."

The king among the monster lords and the king as spoken of in Xuanwu Kingdom are completely different concepts, like heaven and earth.

Since ancient times, there have only been ten demon kings in the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons.

The other monster lords could only be subordinate to them, at most being called "quasi-kings". Moreover, there were not many quasi-kings, and each one was known by name.

Feng Xia's displayed strength was actually still quite far from that of a near-king, but because he had always acted extremely mysteriously, Ying Chengpeng naturally intended to test him.

"Old Niu, let me be clear from the start."

The Azure-Eyed Thunder Ox, Niu Mang, snorted twice and said in a strange, arrogant tone, "Although you made a move just now, you didn't stop that Heavenly Serpent guy. It's impossible for me to thank you!"

Feng Xia smiled slightly: "I naturally understand that."

Old Ox was still not satisfied: "You cowardly fellow, you don't even dare to show your true face. If you ask me, you're probably not an accomplice of the Heavenly Serpent! Otherwise, why would you let that guy escape?"

Kazeka could only describe this kind of thought process in two words—

Awesome!

As expected, it truly lives up to its reputation as a top-tier product...

"Stupid ox, if you can't speak, then shut up!" The Golden Roc Demon King slammed his wing down, smashing the Azure-Eyed Thunder Ox into the ground. Then he turned around and laughed, "However, we have faced a common enemy, so it's not an exaggeration to say we've shared hardships. Fellow Daoist, can't you show your true colors?"

Feng Xia shook his head firmly and sighed in a deep and melancholy tone: "You two do not know, I was originally a star in the sky. Due to an accident, I fell into the Canglan Mountain. Generation after generation, I have watched the rise and fall of the Milky Way and witnessed the changes of the times. After being nourished by the primordial energy for countless years, I finally developed self-awareness in this life."

He sighed deeply, his tone filled with an indescribable loneliness: "What you two have seen is my true self, so how can there be any talk of hiding my true self?"

"I gave myself a name."

Enveloped in starlight, Feng Xia carefully activated the divine power of the Star River Spirit Body (remnant), and said with a leisurely smile:

"Gentlemen, you may address me as..."

"Starbucks."

……

Chapter 0175

"Starbucks?"

Ying Chengpeng and Niu Mang exchanged a glance, both seeing the surprise and doubt in each other's eyes.

Monsters have a longer lifespan than humans; they have all lived for quite some time. But the fact that stars possess spirits and have transformed into life is something that has never been seen or heard of before!

However, seeing how confident Feng Xia was, and how credible it seemed, they hesitated to draw a conclusion immediately.

"Spirit of the Stars... You think I can't see through this? Do you really think I can't see through it?" Niu Mang suddenly sneered, two bolts of lightning shooting out of his nostrils, and snorted, "When you attacked the Heavenly Serpent just now, although you used the power of the stars, in the end, it was just a kind of dragon divine power!"

Niu Mang was referring to the great supernatural power of the Heavenly Dragon Eight-Tone Bell.

Both demon kings possessed extraordinary insight and knowledge, and they immediately recognized that although Feng Xia's Heavenly Dragon Eight-Tone Bell was dazzling with starlight when he used it, as if the stars of the nine heavens were piercing the sky, it was actually just a manifestation of energy, and the essence of the supernatural power was still a great supernatural power of the dragon race!

"Are the stars in the sky associated with the dragon? Old Niu thinks that's unlikely!"

Niu Mang smugly hummed.

Ying Chengpeng also turned his gaze to Feng Xia, a hint of doubt in his eyes. If Feng Xia was indeed, as he himself said, a spirit transformed from a star, then his knowledge of dragon supernatural powers seemed rather strange.

"So this is what you suspected."

Upon hearing this, Feng Xia couldn't help but laugh out loud: "I naturally understand the supernatural powers of the Dragon Clan. After all, the first royal ancestor of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom once cultivated in the land where I fell, comprehended the principles of heaven and earth, and ultimately achieved his own path."

The moment the words left his mouth, Feng Xia's aura changed again.

In that instant, both Ying Chengpeng and Niu Mang's expressions changed.

They could clearly sense that the mysterious being before them, shrouded in starlight, suddenly exuded an ancient and grand aura, high above and noble from birth, possessing a natural pressure on most demons.

Ancient, mysterious, and unfathomable!

The Great Sighing Technique of the Ancestral Dragon - Fragmentary Scroll.

Feng Xia silently circulated the cultivation technique he obtained from Long Da, activating the few strands of Azure Dragon bloodline within his body, and then constructed a dragon-shaped phantom behind him with intense starlight!

Like a divine dragon from long ago, soaring through the clouds and tearing through the sky, it roared silently at them across the river of time!

Roar--

A resounding and thought-provoking message that goes straight to the soul!

Almost without their awareness, Ying Chengpeng and Niu Wang simultaneously took a few steps back, their expressions of shock deepening.

"This dragon's might..."

"And this ancient and profound aura..."

"Could it be that what this guy said is true?"

At the crucial moment, Feng Xia smiled slightly and nodded, saying, "Back then, the first emperor ancestor comprehended the Dao at the place where I fell, and some traces of his Dao were imprinted on my body, so I naturally learned the dragon race's divine abilities."

At this point, his aura changed again.

It transformed from the vast and boundless primordial energy into an incomparably sharp and supreme sword light that soared straight to the heavens!

The two demon kings involuntarily closed their eyes, feeling a sharp pain in their souls. However, even with their eyes closed, they could still see a magnificent sword painting that enveloped the mountains and rivers and all living beings, slowly unfolding before their eyes.

"The ultimate sword technique of the human race!!"

"Seven hundred years ago, a human came to my crash site, comprehended the Dao traces left by his ancestors, and eventually created a set of sword techniques. Since then, his set of sword techniques has also been imprinted on me."

The sharp sword light suddenly retracted and vanished in an instant, as if it had never existed.
