The Demon Slayer Monk, Natu, arrives at Bright Peak and provokes Master Jue Mie and the other leaders of the Six Great Sects with his arrogant words and condescending attitude. He reveals that he was sent by Minister Tuotuo to capture Little Ming King, further angering the sect leaders who feel betrayed by the court. Meanwhile, Minister Tuotuo sneezes and expresses his own worries about Natu's loose tongue potentially causing trouble, despite his powerful cultivation.

In the Bright Peak forest, the Demon Slayer Monk Natu faced the Six Great Sects. "I have little to say to you rabble. Is Chen Jiusi among you?" His gaze then shifted towards Chen Jie. Chen Jie met his stare. "Senior Demon Slayer Monk."

"Heh heh, don’t think flattery will save you. Hand over the Little Ming King, and I’ll grant you a quick death. Refuse, and you’ll face torment," the demon monk declared.

Chen Jie’s brow furrowed. "Senior Demon Slayer Monk is quite direct. Weren’t you going to try to persuade me to yield?"

"Persuade you? Hah, don’t be absurd. Do any of you Han people ever truly submit? We should have eradicated you all long ago. You think I’d waste words on you now? Am I that foolish?"

A bitter laugh escaped Chen Jie. He wondered who had sent this buffoon, who spoke such vile words so openly. Perhaps he voiced the unspoken thoughts of others, while they maintained outward civility. This demon monk, however, was unrestrained and venomous.

Witnessing the demon monk's overwhelming arrogance.

Chen Jie found the situation almost comical, yet a sense of dread washed over him. Beneath the bluster, the demon monk's power was immense, almost monstrous. Even the Taishan Sect's Rainbow Sword Yu Zhen, a cultivator at the Middle Melting Furnace Realm, had been unable to withstand a single strike from him.

Though Chen Jie felt confident he could defeat Yu Zhen, he couldn't fathom matching the demon monk's effortless, instantaneous victory.

Consequently, Chen Jie assessed the demon monk, realizing victory in this encounter was unlikely. The chasm between the Molten Furnace Realm and the Melt God Realm was insurmountable, not something even a Qiankun Great Method could bridge.

With this grim realization, Chen Jie subtly edged closer to the Little Ming King.

Meanwhile, Song Yuanqiao of Wudang gestured discreetly behind his back towards Chen Jie.

Chen Jie understood immediately; it was a signal from Song Yuanqiao, urging him to escape swiftly.

Not one to hesitate, Chen Jie swiftly heeded the signal. He reached the Little Ming King, grasped his wrist, and sprinted towards the Ming King Hall.

Seeing Chen Jie attempting to abscond with the Little Ming King, the demon monk roared in fury. "You wretched thief!"

With that, he raised his hand, unleashing a devastating Vajra Palm strike.

Boom!

An overpowering torrent of palm force surged from behind Chen Jie, electrifying his every hair.

The Little Ming King, clutched by Chen Jie, nearly soiled himself in terror; the sheer force of the palm radiated a deathly aura. Chen Jie, unwilling to let the youngster perish, swiftly spun around and countered with a palm strike of his own.

"Divine Dragon Tail!"

Roar...

A furious draconic roar resounded as Chen Jie thrust forward, and a colossal dragon materialized, hurtling towards the demon monk.

Boom!

A thunderous collision ensued. The demon monk's Vajra Palm annihilated Chen Jie's dragon instantly, with the residual force slamming directly into Chen Jie's chest.

Chen Jie absorbed the palm's lingering power involuntarily.

With a sickening thud, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

This was his first confrontation with an expert of the Melt God Realm, and its terrifying reputation was indeed justified. Chen Jie, in the heat of battle, keenly felt the dread emanating from the Melt God Realm.

The disparity between the Melt God Realm and the Molten Furnace Realm was truly like the heavens and the earth. Despite Chen Jie's cultivation at the Melt God Upper Realm, a significant gap still separated him from true Melt God Realm mastery!

Phoo~

After enduring the blow, Chen Jie suffered grievous internal injuries. He understood then that confronting the Melt God Realm required possessing that level of power oneself. Without rapidly ascending to the Melt God Realm, defeating the demon monk was an impossibility.

And to reach the Melt God Realm, Chen Jie's sole remaining option was the Melt God Pill, concealed within the Ming King Hall.

Heart set on this course, Chen Jie surged towards the Ming King Hall without a second thought.

Upon witnessing this, the demon monk bellowed in unbridled rage. "Thief, halt!"

A furious cry echoed as the demon monk gave chase, aiming to intercept Chen Jie.

The demon monk's speed was astounding.

He was rapidly closing in on Chen Jie's trajectory when, abruptly, a blinding sword light flashed towards him!

The demon monk started in surprise, turning to face a long sword emitting a three-foot glint, slicing directly at him.

"Villain, meet your demise!"

The sword light was impossibly sharp, forcing the demon monk to momentarily step back despite the wielder not being at the Melt God Realm. He then roared in fury, "Master Jue Mie, how dare you attack me?"

Master Jue Mie's voice boomed thunderously, "I shall kill you! This is the end!"

Master Jue Mie's patience had reached its limit. She was a woman of resolute character, whose conduct had always been impeccable.

However, the demon monk audaciously asserted that she harbored feelings for Chen Jie, believing the elder nun was infatuated. This infuriated and deeply embarrassed her. Gritting her teeth at this moment, her sword unleashed terrifying gales, her stance resolute.

The Emei Sect held its reputation in high regard, and Master Jue Mie esteemed it above all else. The demon monk's insolent declaration ignited a murderous rage within her. If he were not vanquished today, a heart demon was bound to resurface!

Consequently, Master Jue Mie raised the Jade Maiden Sword, poised to strike, emanating an aura of unwavering determination until her vengeance was satisfied.

The demon monk dodged two of Master Jue Mie's strikes, his countenance darkening, and bellowed in fury: "You wretched nun, are you not merely leveraging the superiority of your spirit sword? Stripped of that weapon, you are insignificant."

"Wicked man, cease your prattling. Today, I shall undoubtedly slay you!" Master Jue Mie, driven to the brink of madness by rage, wielded the Jade Maiden Sword with abandon, launching a ferocious assault devoid of refined technique.
