Slaughter to Prove Your Dao: Unlock the Great Sage Equal to Heaven at the Start!

079 The Demon Cave, the true core area, extends deep underground, countless meters below the surface.

Inside a magnificent council chamber carved from a massive rock that appeared to have been soaked in blood.

The light was dim.

Only a few strange crystals embedded in the walls, emitting a ghostly green light, barely illuminated the center of the hall.

Beside a huge round table, also carved from dark red rock.

Six figures, each exuding a terrifying aura and possessing a unique form, sat silently around.

Although they had all taken human form, they still occasionally revealed a trace of demonic aura and oppressive power.

It is enough to freeze the soul and congeal the blood of any living being below the fourth realm.

Six demon lords.

Each and every one of them stands at the top of the monster pyramid.

A terrifying being who has completed his complete human form and whose strength is comparable to a human at the seventh level of the Battle Venerable realm.

They are the rulers of the 079 Demon Cave, a nightmare that makes humanity's defenses feel like they have thorns in their backs.

Seated at the head of the table was a burly man with an imposing, dignified appearance.

A middle-aged man with long, dark golden hair, resembling a lion.

His transformation was extremely perfect; apart from his vertical pupils that occasionally flashed with dark gold light, he showed almost no characteristics of a demon beast.

He was none other than the Lion Clan Demon Lord, Golden Mane, a seventh-rank upper-level being.

He is the strongest and most senior among these six demon lords.

He spoke slowly, his voice deep and resonant.

The sound echoed through the spacious council chamber, carrying an undeniable air of authority.

"Last time, the Southern Military Command of the Dragon Kingdom joined forces with Shenzhen Martial Arts University."

"A large-scale operation codenamed 'Thunderbolt' was launched."

"Our outer buffer zone of the Demon Cave suffered heavy losses."

"A large number of low- to mid-level monsters were slaughtered, and several strongholds that had been established for many years were destroyed."

"Although it won't damage the very foundation of my Demon Cave, this loss, this loss of face..."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over the other five demon lords.

His tone turned cold: "We can't afford to lose face."

On the left, there is a woman who has transformed into a seductive and alluring woman, wearing a revealing black gauze dress.

A beautiful woman with a beauty mark at the corner of her eye gently licked her red lips.

The voice, however, was as cold as a viper's tongue:

"Lord Golden Mane is right."

"Moreover, that human kid named Chen Xing has been making too much noise lately."

"According to the latest intelligence, he possesses a variety of bizarre combat abilities, and his growth rate is frighteningly fast."

She paused, a cold glint flashing in her eyes:

"That good-for-nothing Huqi may not be very bright, but he is at least a mid-level fourth-tier warrior with a king-level bloodline."

"As a result, in the abandoned mining area of ​​Tianshan City, he was killed by Chen Xing in less than ten seconds."

"This is no longer within the scope of ordinary geniuses."

"This child must be taken seriously and eliminated as soon as possible!"

She is the Serpent Clan Demon Lord, Youlin.

A mid-level seventh-rank individual, known for cunning and the use of poison.

On the right, there is a man with a massive build, as tall as an iron tower.

A bald, burly man with a face full of scars and a deep, booming voice.

He slammed his hand on the stone table, producing a dull, resounding thud.

"Hmph! How strong can a mere human brat at the third realm be?"

"Just a bit more talented!"

"I'll send one of my top-tier fourth-level subordinates; one slap and he'll be smashed into mincemeat!"

"Is there any need to discuss this here?"

He is the Tiger Clan Demon Lord, Baoshan.

A mid-level seventh-tier individual with a volatile temper and a strong belief in power.

Upon hearing this, Youlin scoffed, her alluring eyes filled with disdain:

"Baoshan, is your brain all muscles?"

"Huqi was also a mid-level fourth-tier cultivator with a king-level bloodline, and was proficient in illusion and poison arts, yet he was killed in ten seconds."

"You sent a fourth-rank superior, are you trying to kill your subordinates already?"

"Still not satisfied with how Chen Xing was killed?"

"you!"

Baoshan's eyes widened in fury, and a fierce, demonic aura rose from his body.

That's enough.

The man with the golden mane at the top spoke softly, his voice not loud.

Yet it carried an invisible pressure that instantly silenced the two arguing individuals.

His gaze swept calmly across the round table.

"I am personally overseeing Chen Xing's case."

"This child has indeed become a force to be reckoned with; he cannot be judged by ordinary standards."

"Sending experts to surround and kill them rashly would easily alert the enemy, and secondly..."

"If we fail again, it will only embolden him and ruin the prestige of my Demon Cave."

He tapped his fingers lightly on the stone table, making a rhythmic tapping sound:

"Pass down the order to have the troop on the outer perimeter temporarily retreat."

"Don't easily clashed with humans again, especially don't provoke Chen Xing."

"Let them think that we are afraid and have become lax."

"At the same time, closely observe Chen Xing's whereabouts and patterns of action, collect all his combat intelligence, and look for his weaknesses and habits."

"When you make a move, you must ensure a fatal blow, leaving him no chance to recover."

"in addition,"

Golden Mane looked out the window at the sky, which seemed perpetually shrouded in dark clouds.

"The contraction on the periphery should also be done more naturally."

"Let those humans think that the 'Thunderous Extermination' has been very effective, that we have been severely weakened, and that we are recuperating."

"When their defenses weaken and patrol density decreases..."

A flash of dark golden light appeared in his eyes:

"Give them another 'lesson' they'll never forget."

Inside the council hall, a glint of bloodlust and excitement flashed in the eyes of several demon lords.

After the meeting ended, the five figures dispersed.

It blended into the shadows of the council chamber and disappeared.

Only Golden Mane remained, still sitting in the first seat.

He slowly stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window at the edge of the council chamber, which was made from a single piece of dark red crystal.

Looking out the window at the oppressive and eerie dark red sky.

He spoke to himself in a low voice, a voice only he could hear:

"Chen Xing... Dark Blood Asura..."

"SS-level talent, killing opponents of higher levels is as easy as drinking water... Interesting."

"I'd like to see what you've got, this rising star that's suddenly appeared."

"Just how far can it grow, and how long... can it shine in the shadow of my demonic lair?"

……

Meanwhile, outside the 079 Demon Cave.

A desolate mountainous area near the edge of the core area.

Chen Xing sat down cross-legged in a well-hidden cave.

He simply covered the entrance to the cave with gravel.

The cave was dimly lit, with only the faint light from the recorder.

With a slight thought, the pale golden system panel unfolded in his mind.

Current kill count: 12500 points

[Divine Position Fusion Degree]: 35%

[Supernatural Powers]: ...Somersault Cloud (beginner's understanding), Vajra Indestructible (mastery).

His gaze fell upon the somersault cloud.

Although his initial understanding of the Somersault Cloud technique granted him explosive speed and short-distance maneuvering ability far exceeding those of his peers, it was still a significant achievement.

However, the flight distance is limited, the continuous flight time is short, and the energy consumption is high.

In the complex and perilous environment of Cave 079:

More flexible, more durable, and less energy-consuming maneuverability is crucial.

Whether it's pursuing, escaping, or shifting the battlefield.

Even a minor version of the Somersault Cloud will bring about a qualitative improvement.

"Chief,"

Chen Xing locked his mind onto the Somersault Cloud.

"Improve your skills, from a beginner to a proficient."

[Command confirmed!]

[Ding! Consumed 6500 kill points, Somersault Cloud proficiency increased: Beginner → Minor Success!]

Om-!

A deeper, more profound understanding of "airflow," "space," "speed," and "maneuvering."

It flowed into Chen Xing's soul like a clear spring.

His use of the somersault cloud is no longer limited to simple linear acceleration and short-distance gliding.

When fully activated, the Lesser Somersault Cloud can reach a speed of up to ten times the speed of sound!

Although it cannot be sustained for a long time, its short-range bursts are even more terrifying.

With its continuous flight time extended to three minutes, it is sufficient to support medium-distance relocation or pursuit.

Moreover, consumption has been reduced by 30%, and flexibility has been greatly improved!

"good."

A hint of satisfaction flashed in Chen Xing's eyes.

Those 6,500 kill points were well spent.

The increased mobility brought by the Xiaocheng Somersault Cloud is invaluable in complex terrain and skirmishes.

Remaining kill points: 6000.

He looked at Vajra Indestructible, which had risen from Great Accomplishment to Perfection.

We need 15000 points, but we don't have enough right now.

He stood up and stretched his wrists.

A cold, sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

"Not enough kill points? Then... go earn some more."
