Ultimate Evil Boy learns of an Epsilon-class Transcendent from the Huaxu Nation in Edo City. He decides to wait and see if the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons can deal with the intruder before striking. Meanwhile, Zhang Yi battles the three great ghost kings—Nukekubi, Great Tengu, and Canine God—amidst a supernatural downpour. Just as Zhang Yi prepares to unleash his ultimate attack, he is suddenly immobilized, and the Nukekubi closes in for the kill.

The Nukekubi’s blade sliced straight through Zhang Yi’s Dimensional Gate, then slashed toward his true body.

But when his sword was still far from Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi’s eyes flickered with dazzling white light.

The space centered on the Nukekubi suddenly collapsed inward.

“Pfft!”

The little old man’s body was crushed from all directions by a tremendous force, twisted into a sphere the size of a basketball.

Although Zhang Yi’s body couldn’t move, the condition for activating Divine Domain Purification was that it affected everything he sensed within a three-kilometer radius around him.

Seeing this, the Canine God once again condensed a powerful alien energy in its mouth, which turned into a burning pitch-black magatama fired at Zhang Yi!

But that force didn’t cause even the slightest ripple; it was directly devoured by Zhang Yi’s dimensional space without even a splash.

After three seconds passed, that sense of being forcibly controlled vanished in an instant.

Without a second thought, Zhang Yi aimed directly at the Nukekubi and unleashed the Spear of Annihilation!

Boom!!!

A massive black war spear emerged from the void, slamming violently into the crumpled little old man, carrying him straight toward the distant dark sky!

In just an instant, the Nukekubi’s figure was nowhere to be seen.

As for the Canine God, just as it was about to launch another attack at Zhang Yi, a sudden, terrifying roar erupted from behind it.

Huahua spread her wings, leaped onto its back, and bit down fiercely!

Although Huahua’s body was only a third the size of the Canine God, this strike tore a massive gash at the back of its neck!

The Canine God’s attention was all on Zhang Yi; caught off guard by Huahua’s sneak attack, it let out a painful howl.

Zhang Yi didn’t hesitate; he activated Spatial Shifting. The Sword in the Tree in his right hand condensed into a giant blade over ten meters long, wreathed in dark Void Force, and with one slash, he severed the Canine God’s head clean off!

The Three Great Ghost Kings were finally dealt with.

But Zhang Yi knew these undying creatures would soon revive.

“Let’s go! Don’t waste time here!”

On the other side, Liang Yue, Baili Changqing, and the others were surrounded by a horde of ghosts. As the night deepened, more and more apparitions appeared around the Daliangdu Museum. Looking out, the entire Edo City was filled with demons and monsters.

A ghost head as massive as a mountain, with only a single skull, opened its mouth and let out a shakuhachi-like wail; a bizarre monk three zhang tall, covered in purple-blue skin, holding a rosary made of human heads, whose head was actually that of a rat; a white-haired woman whose mere movement caused the temperature around her to plummet, freezing everything with ice; a one-eyed monk leaning on an iron staff...

They surrounded Liang Yue and the others, launching a frenzied attack.

Even the powerful Investigation Team members found themselves in trouble facing these creatures that revived soon after being killed.

“Roar!!!”

A powerful beam of energy shot over, blasting all the demons before Deng Shentong and the others into smithereens!

Huahua and Zhang Yi appeared there.

A Dimensional Gate opened. No words were wasted.

“The operation has failed; retreat!”

Though a look of reluctance remained on Deng Shentong’s face, continuing this entanglement was definitely not the wise move.

They had already noticed more and more mysterious figures appearing in Edo City—members of the Demon-Sealing Court.

Those guys were all waiting for them to be killed by the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, or for them to exhaust their strength before coming in to deliver the final blow.

Deng Shentong gritted his teeth. “Let’s go!”

Zhang Yi raised his hand; a single Divine Domain Purification cleared the field, instantly killing all the demons within a three-kilometer radius!

Everyone entered the Dimensional Gate.

And from the distant night sky, that old, mocking laughter came again.

Zhang Yi frowned, the last one to step into the Dimensional Gate.

One Spatial Shifting could cover a distance of up to 4,000 meters, but they still couldn’t escape the encirclement of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons.

By now, though, Zhang Yi had basically understood the strength of these creatures.

The Nukekubi’s power was a bit strange and hard to pin down, but it was definitely still a certain gap away from Zhang Yi himself.

As for the Great Tengu and the Canine God, they were only at the low-level White Chariot grade.

Even all three combined couldn’t deal Zhang Yi any substantial damage.

However, they still had to watch out for the Transcendents of the Demon-Sealing Court, so they needed to withdraw as quickly as possible.

After the first Spatial Shifting ended, the Nukekubi quickly found their location.

Four thousand meters wasn’t too far for him; he could catch up soon.

The Tumbler’s song had already begun ringing in Zhang Yi and the others’ ears again.

But this time, Zhang Yi was mentally prepared. Using Manifold Phenomena, he first protected himself and the others from being attacked by the demons.

He silently counted the time in his mind, waiting for the Ghost Kings’ arrival.

After three seconds passed, the control was lifted, and the Three Great Ghost Kings had already arrived.

The Great Tengu and the Canine God soared in the sky, while the Nukekubi held his short blade, Kiri-kiri, grinning as he prepared to leap down.

Zhang Yi, however, raised his right hand, crossing his middle and index fingers, pointing in their direction.

In his eyes, the light twisted, and white radiance flared up.

With him at the center, a massive storm of supernatural powers erupted. Even though Zhang Yi hadn’t deliberately released this aura, the sheer pressure from concentrating his power forced Deng Shentong and the others to step back several paces, unable to approach Zhang Yi.

“Divine Domain Purification!”

This move was Zhang Yi’s strongest attack, gathering all the power in his body!

He twisted his fingers, and the space where the Three Great Ghost Kings stood shattered like a mirror, violently twisting toward the center!

It was as if an invisible giant hand was gripping them tightly, then crushing them inward with immense force!

“Crack!”

The Great Tengu’s bones were crushed to bits, shards of bone piercing through flesh and blood, spraying gore everywhere.

The massive Canine God was directly compressed into a pulp of dog meat, even wrapping around the Nukekubi.

Such terrifying strength left the Demon-Sealing Court members watching from afar utterly stunned.

Maeda Uichiro, an executive of the Demon-Sealing Court and leader of the Sword Group, stared with wide eyes, not even noticing the cigarette falling from his mouth.

“These outsiders—what kind of monsters are they?! With a single strike, they wiped out three Ghost Kings!”

After this attack, Zhang Yi’s internal power was temporarily depleted.

He opened another Dimensional Gate. “Let’s go!”

Deng Shentong and the others were jolted awake by Zhang Yi’s voice; the scene they’d just witnessed had left them equally dumbfounded.

They only knew that Zhang Yi had become an Epsilon-class Transcendent and was incredibly strong.

But just how strong he really was, they’d never had a clear understanding.

Until this moment, standing before Zhang Yi, they felt as if they were facing an ancient deity! And they themselves were as weak and insignificant as insects.
