【An Ce, head of the Divine Sea Society’s branch, dominated the entire Ba’an Sea region 170,000 years ago.】
【Notorious underwater,】
【he was also highly renowned on land.】
【His Demon King Realm was forged through countless battles with other demons, constantly teetering on the edge of life and death.】
【Combined with his long and enduring lifespan,】
【calling An Ce a living fossil of the demon world is not an exaggeration.】
【Perhaps beings like Yang Xiao, the Red Dawn Ram Lord, were unaware of the origin of the Heavenly Demon World Annihilation Technique.】
【After all, their existence was too brief.】
【But An Ce was different—he clearly knew that nearly 200,000 years ago, the Heavenly Demon World Annihilation Technique was regarded as the strongest cultivation method in the demon world.】
【It was created by a mantis demon king named Bai Anxia.】
【He was powerful, wielding two bone knives with unstoppable sharpness.】
【But due to his small body, he suffered many disadvantages.】
【Later, through sudden insight, he created the Heavenly Demon World Annihilation Technique.】
【With a mantis’s body, he rivaled heaven and earth.】
【With only early Demon King Realm cultivation, he slew thirteen Demon Kings in a single battle, becoming famous overnight.】
【Among those thirteen were two who had reached peak Demon King Realm,】
【just one step from the legendary Demon Emperor Realm.】
【Yet even so, all perished on the spot.】
【That battle cemented Bai Anxia’s invincible name, and the Heavenly Demon World Annihilation Technique was deemed the strongest cultivation method in the demon world.】
【At that time, all demons believed】
【Bai Anxia might become the strongest Demon Emperor in the demon world.】
【But fate is unpredictable.】
【Only five years later, Bai Anxia vanished completely.】
【Some say he suffered hidden injuries in that battle, which never healed, and eventually died from relapse.】
【Others say he broke through to Demon Emperor Realm and, unmatched in the demon world, shattered the void and ascended to the highest divine realm.】
【Of course, there are many rumors.】
【But none change the fact that Bai Anxia disappeared.】
【Though gone, the Heavenly Demon World Annihilation Technique’s fame remains undiminished.】
【Recalling that time, An Ce also searched everywhere for this technique, even ascending to land because of it.】
【Unfortunately, luck did not favor him.】
【With Bai Anxia’s disappearance, the technique vanished without a trace,】
【like a fleeting blossom, erased from the demon world’s history.】
【But what An Ce never expected was that upon awakening just now, he would see this technique underwater.】
【Shocked yet delighted,】
【he thought: truly, the demon gods have opened their eyes!】
【This might be a tremendous opportunity for him.】
【If he could kill this white-haired monkey demon before him and extract his soul, perhaps he could obtain this technique.】
【Then he could fully dominate the entire sea region.】
【Just thinking about it thrilled him.】
【An Ce stroked his whiskers with his chubby little hands,】
【his eyes gleaming with excitement.】
【"Monkey demon, I hope you can endure a bit, don’t let me pulverize your soul!"】
【No sooner had he spoken!】
【A dazzling black light burst from An Ce’s body.】
【The unique pressure of early Demon King Realm swept the scene.】
【Then An Ce opened his huge mouth, and seawater around him surged violently.】
【Forming an enormous whirlpool!】
【Within seconds, the water level of the entire Ba’an Sea dropped by several meters.】
【An Ce’s body swelled to immense proportions,】
【but still half a head shorter than Ye Yu.】
【Undoubtedly, An Ce’s technique was not a mere phantom but a real physical manifestation.】
【However, compared to the Heavenly Demon World Annihilation Technique,】
【this method was too crude.】
【One could tell by the continuous water dripping from his seven orifices.】
【It was simply pure seawater propping up his body!】
【Ye Yu keenly noticed this and sneered coldly!】
【Is this supposed to imitate the Heavenly Demon World Annihilation Technique?】
【Ridiculous beyond belief!】
【Little did he know, the technique’s effect was far beyond mere size enlargement.】
【When unleashed, the user’s demonic power and strength reach a peak.】
【Its true essence is to become an existence equal to heaven and earth.】
【The size is only a surface manifestation!】
【Boom!】
【With Ye Yu’s step, the seabed shook violently.】
【He raised his fist and struck.】
【The huge body drove fierce winds.】
【Before the fist landed, the wind arrived!】
【An Ce’s fat face was creased by the gust.】
【He crossed his hands to block the punch.】
【But An Ce underestimated the power of the Heavenly Demon World Annihilation Technique!】
【The punch shattered everything within a ten-thousand-mile radius.】
【An Ce’s giant form was blasted backward instantly.】
【Seawater spurted from his orifices.】
【His body visibly shrank rapidly.】
【Soon, he crashed heavily onto the ground 800 miles away.】
【Returning to his normal, bucket-like size.】
【But his hands emitted a burnt smell.】
【White steam rose in wisps.】
【An Ce struggled to stand, coughing up old blood.】
【His eyes filled with shock.】
【As a die-hard fan of the Heavenly Demon World Annihilation Technique who could not obtain it,】
【he had researched his own size-enlargement technique.】
【His logic was simple: Bai Anxia could create the Heavenly Demon World Annihilation Technique as a mere mantis demon, so why couldn’t he?】
【It’s just getting bigger, after all.】
【But after today’s fight, An Ce truly understood the difference between genuine and counterfeit.】
【Though similar in appearance, the gap was immense.】
【Honestly, An Ce felt he had almost been crushed to death by one punch.】
【That power was terrifying beyond measure.】
【A solemn expression appeared on An Ce’s face.】
【However, before he could dwell on it, the surrounding space suddenly darkened.】
【An Ce looked ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ up and saw an enormous red foot towering overhead.】
【Looking around, it seemed endless.】
【An Ce’s eyes widened in shock.】
【The next moment, the entire sea region trembled again, and seawater exploded apart.】
【But Ye Yu frowned slightly, sensing he hadn’t stepped on anything.】
【Just then, An Ce’s figure suddenly appeared a thousand meters away.】
【He formed a complex Taoist hand seal, his expression serious!】
