Stepping onto the scorching Magma, the Azure Rock Demon King transformed into a blue Phantom, gliding over the searing water surface before vanishing into a thick cloud of smoke. Suddenly breaking through the water's surface, he soared into the air, wielding a broken long sword, and shouted, "You little brat, if you have the guts, come at me and let me choose the battlefield!"
Ye Yang stood tall and replied calmly, "I won't go."
"Why won't you come? Are you scared?" The Azure Rock Demon King sneered.
Ye Yang smiled and said, "Why should I follow you? As long as I kill all your disciples, I will be the master of this Boundless Purgatory. You can't defeat me, so I have nothing to fear."
The Azure Rock Demon King was furious; he never expected his provocation to fail. With a quick thought, he said, "Hmph, Boundless Purgatory is not a place you can decide alone. The other three Demon Kings are old acquaintances of mine. If they find out you defeated me, they will seek revenge and turn you to ashes. You must be scared now!"
"Scared of your grandmother's leg!"
Ye Yang raised his sword-like brows and brandished the Azure Soul Sword, saying in a low voice, "I had no intention of killing you; you brought this upon yourself!"
Treading on the void, he suddenly exerted force. With a whoosh, Ye Yang shot forward in a straight line, his speed surpassing that of sound. The scorching Star Flame Power broke through the air like an arrow aimed at the Azure Rock Demon King.
Swish!
With a swift motion of his Blade, he struck towards the Azure Rock Demon King. The chilling sword energy sliced through the air.
"What?!"
The Azure Rock Demon King was taken aback and quickly accelerated. At the same time, he pulled his arm back and unleashed a series of fiery projectiles with a loud roar. These energy spheres were filled with intense flame energy; anyone else would surely perish upon contact. However, Ye Yang, being a Starry Sky Seventh Level expert and in Fire God Transformation state, was not overly concerned but remained cautious—sustaining injuries was never good in this perilous Boundless Purgatory; who knew what else lurked here?
Clap! Clap! Clap!
With each step on the air, Ye Yang executed several sharp turns with his footwork essence, leaving behind trails of fiery ripples in mid-air that were quite spectacular. With another flick of his Blade, he unleashed two more waves of sword energy while accelerating his flight speed, subtly gaining an advantage over his opponent.
The Azure Rock Demon King roared in anger: "You little brat think you can compete with me in speed? You're still too inexperienced..."
With all his might in his arms, the Azure Rock Demon King suddenly shouted: "Wind Technique!"
"Wow!"
A powerful wind swirled around, and the Azure Rock Demon King moved with a speed akin to lightning, soaring several miles in an instant, like a flash of electricity.
"Speed, huh?"
Ye Yang frowned, silently activating the Hidden Dragon Technique. The steps of Divine Dragon Asks Heaven appeared in his mind. True Qi surged outward, gradually forming sharp dragon blades around him. His speed instantly increased, and the qi surrounding his body ignited from the friction with the air, surpassing that of the Azure Rock Demon King as he shot forward like a bolt of lightning!
"Whoosh!"
He swiftly overtook the Azure Rock Demon King. Ye Yang struck out with an open palm and shouted, "Get down, you scoundrel!"
The massive fiery palm slammed into the Azure Rock Demon King. Having focused all his strength on his movement technique, the Azure Rock Demon King could not withstand it. He let out a muffled groan and was sent plummeting downwards, blood spraying as he fell like a kite with its string cut towards the Lava Sea.
As he descended, the Azure Rock Demon King, unwilling to accept defeat, made a desperate counterattack. He raised one hand and hurled his broken long sword, shouting, "Die, kid!"
Ye Yang remained calm, firmly holding the Azure Soul Sword in both hands. He shouted loudly, "Break!"
The sword blade came crashing down. With a clang, the Azure Rock Demon's weapon shattered completely into countless fragments that rained down from the sky.
"It's over. I've roamed Boundless Purgatory for a thousand years, and it ends like this..." The Azure Rock Demon King looked at Ye Yang, whose killing intent was palpable in the air. Despair filled his heart as he never imagined it would end at the hands of this mysterious young man. He didn't even know his name from beginning to end.
"Sizzle..."
With Thunder Power flowing through him, Ye Yang teleported below and unleashed a powerful kick wrapped in flames against the descending Azure Rock Demon King.
"Bang!"
With a loud explosion, the Azure Rock Demon King let out a muffled groan as he shot straight up. The bones in his back had already shattered; Ye Yang's strike was simply too overwhelming.
"Swish!"
Once again teleporting to the top, Ye Yang raised the Azure Soul Sword and shouted, "Rest in peace, you Tyrant of Purgatory!"
"Crack!"
Blood splattered everywhere as the blazing sword cleaved the Azure Rock Demon King in half, black blood raining down from the sky, a gruesome sight.
"Is this death?"
The consciousness of the Azure Rock Demon King began to fade. After being severely injured by a peak-level expert from the Starry Sky Seventh Level, his wounds were beyond self-healing, and Ye Yang would not give him that chance.
...
"Smack!"
Ye Yang's palm suddenly pressed against the Azure Rock Demon King's forehead. At that moment, the Azure Rock Demon King heard his last words: "Die, and let there be a fair law in the Ghost Realm!"
With a roar, Star Flame erupted as Ye Yang ruthlessly burned away the Azure Rock Demon King's Soul Crystal Core. The ruler of Boundless Purgatory was thus obliterated!
Grabbing the Azure Rock Demon King's leg with one hand and his arm with the other, Ye Yang lifted the two halves of his body and suddenly teleported!
...
"Whoosh..."
With a flash of Thunder Power, Ye Yang burst out from the rift in space, holding the two halves of the Azure Rock Demon King’s body and then dropping them forcefully.
"Thud..."
The body landed on the dry black stone ground, instantly throwing tens of thousands of Fallen Soldiers into chaos, their faces pale: "Oh my God, is that... is that the Azure Rock Demon King? The Demon Lord has actually been killed..."
Ye Yang shouted loudly, "Cleanse! The Azure Rock Demon King has been slain by me. From now on, this realm of Boundless Purgatory will be under my control. I am Ye Yang; remember this name! Even if it takes your entire life to remember it, do so, for this name will shake the three realms!"
A group of Ghost Soldiers looked pale and could not utter a word.
"What's wrong? Didn't you hear what I said?" Ye Yang said coldly.
Finally, a Commander stepped forward and said, "Young Hero, we... we are loyal to the Azure Rock Demon King. However... the King has just died, how can we pledge our loyalty to you? We also have our own loyalties..."
Ye Yang laughed, "Loyalty? You can feed your loyalty to the dogs; spare me the nonsense. From today onwards, anyone who does not obey my orders will be killed without mercy. You all can decide for yourselves!"
The group fell silent.
"Then..."
One of the Ghost Soldiers dropped his long knife to the ground and slowly knelt down, saying, "Lord Ye Yang... Long live the new Demon King, long live..."
One after another, more than half of the Ghost Soldiers on the warship knelt down, with only a few Commanders still holding their ground.
"Stubbornness will only lead you to your demise!" Ye Yang gathered intense flames in his hand.
...
At that moment, a woman's voice rang out: "Celestial Wave Commander, Morning Star Commander, Fu Wu Commander, listen carefully. Kneel down immediately; Ye Yang is our new Demon King from now on. Otherwise... do you really want to die?"
"Ahhh..."
A group of Commanders exchanged glances at the edge of the Magma Sea. Unbeknownst to them, Charming Yama had already stood there. One of her arms was hanging down, covered in scars, likely broken. Most of her clothing was burned away, leaving only a light veil covering her private parts. Her body was pure white and flawless, making her an enchanting sight.
"Lady Charming Yama, you... you're not dead?" Celestial Wave Commander murmured.
Charming Yama smiled slightly and looked at Ye Yang, saying, "Young Hero, show mercy. That strike was not delivered with full force; otherwise, even ten Charming Yamas would have perished."
Ye Yang floated down and stood in front of Charming Yama, reaching out to grasp her arm, saying, "I understand that you serve Azure Rock, but the only one I wish to kill is Azure Rock. I hope you can forgive me."
"I know, Young Hero. Whoever has the greater power, Charming Yama will follow," she said, looking at Ye Yang's handsome face. Charming Yama held Ye Yang's hand and pressed it against her own soft chest.
Ye Yang's gaze was calm, but his arm felt as strong as steel, making it impossible for Charming Yama to pull away.
"No need for that."
Ye Yang said lightly, grabbing Charming Yama's arm and suddenly pushing. With a crack, her dislocated arm was back in place. Ye Yang turned and said, "I will cultivate here; you all carry on as usual. However, do not bully those helpless Souls anymore. Strive to cultivate; the way of heaven is vast and elusive. You should not be satisfied with mere desires of the soul..."
Charming Yama stood there, biting her red lip. After a moment, she nodded and said, "Yes, Charming Yama will faithfully follow Young Hero's orders and will not let you down. Young Hero, besides cultivating on your own, do you have any other requests for us?"
Ye Yang replied, "Yes. All your Weapons must be thrown into that large cauldron—leave none behind—and bring over any ironware you can find within your territory."
"Understood, Young Hero!"
