The deafening drumbeats echoed in Xu Zimo’s ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, Xu Zimo activated his Hell-Suppressing Demon Physique. Endless demonic energy surged skyward from around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes turned pitch black. Thick demonic energy surged from them, and streaks of dark purple-black lines spread from his forehead down to his neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo looked up, his gaze indifferent, staring straight at the incoming God Race.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiu You swore she would remember that scene for the rest of her life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was an afternoon in July, the sun still fairly bright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hundreds of demon shadows knelt on the ground, gazing reverently ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man in the black robe stood tall and alone, his back figure seeming both mighty and solitary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The deafening drumbeats seemed to drift further away, as if growing more and more distant. In her eyes, there was only that man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Demonic energy raged around them. Boundless demonic might spread over the land, and in that moment, the world fell completely silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the drumbeats vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My subjects,\" Xu Zimo slowly extended his hand, looking at the demons behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said softly, “Since you are but obsessions, then disperse. I swear, one day, I will truly reign over this world. Wherever the sun and moon shine, it shall be demon soil. Wherever rivers flow, all shall bow to me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hundreds of demons behind him all prostrated, their eyes gradually clearing, and their lingering obsessions slowly dissipated into the distant sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the demons faded away, the God Race’s obsessions began to dissipate as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The demonic energy around Xu Zimo slowly withdrew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A breeze blew past. As if nothing had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiu You shook her head to snap herself out of it, suddenly aware that the area had fallen into complete silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get up,\" Xu Zimo said as he walked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You just now...\" Jiu You hesitated, unsure how to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You saw nothing,\" Xu Zimo replied and walked on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the distance, Feng Changnian and the other two hadn’t gone far. Seeing the obsessions dissipate, they hurried back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Jiu You! Brother Lin! Are you alright?\" Feng Changnian shouted from afar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We're fine,\" Xu Zimo replied, shaking his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why didn’t you run earlier?\" Feng Changnian breathed a sigh of relief as he got closer. \"And how did those obsessions vanish so quickly?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Daybreak,\" Xu Zimo said calmly, looking up at the whitening sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah, is that so?\" Feng Changnian looked up. \"No wonder. You two are lucky. Obsessions only appear at night. During the day, the battlefield is relatively safe.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside him, Jiu You remained silent, her mind filled with the scene from earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She glanced at Xu Zimo, head lowered, lost in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Weren’t we going to the demon tomb?\" Xu Zimo asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When you didn’t come out, we were about to head back to Wind Thunder Tower,\" Feng Changyin scratched his head and smiled. \"Let’s go together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The five of them continued toward the tomb. Jiu You remained heavy-hearted. Feng Yuer, timid, said little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Feng Changnian remained chatty, keeping the conversation going with all kinds of topics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gave Xu Zimo a detailed account of the God-Demon Battlefield, showing he’d done plenty of homework beforehand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After walking for half a day, they finally arrived at their destination around noon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The so-called Demon Tomb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ahead, the tomb was blocked by a group of yellow-robed disciples. It wasn’t very large and was sealed off from all four directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some rogue cultivators stood around, pointing and whispering, but none dared to force their way in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This place belongs to everyone. Do they really think they can block us all out?\" some rogue cultivators grumbled angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Those Nine Dragons Villa people are too arrogant.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They only let powerful individuals or major sects in. For people like us, even if we resist, we're no match, so they don’t care.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo glanced around, then looked at Feng Changnian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn't Wind Thunder Tower a known name? You guys can’t get in either?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nope. Our grand elder is only at peak Fusion Heaven Realm. Not good enough in their eyes,\" Feng Changnian sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Either a Fusion Heaven expert must come in person, or your sect must be at the Grand Empyrean level. Otherwise, they won’t care.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Should we just force our way in?\" Feng Changyin suggested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a word, Xu Zimo simply walked straight toward the tomb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop right there!\" Several yellow-robed disciples immediately blocked him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their robes bore embroidered patterns of nine coiling dragons. Each held axes or halberds, standing firmly in his way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Which sect are you from?\" one asked loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eternal God Sect,\" Xu Zimo replied as he pulled out a token that Gong Chuhe had given him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a high-level badge from the Eternal God Sect, something even inner disciples rarely possessed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the leader of the Nine Dragons Villa disciples saw it, he immediately stepped aside and opened a path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please, go ahead,\" the leader said politely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Nine Dragons Villa had a formidable reputation, they were only among the stronger factions at the Empyrean level, still a step below true God-level sects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo led the group inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they reached the tomb's entrance, Xu Zimo finally looked up to inspect it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surface area of the tomb wasn't large. Its surrounding walls were made of Demon Glare Stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the gate, rows of black pine trees, Demon Pines, lined the pathway, exuding a faint fragrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the center of the pine grove was an open entrance to an underground chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The doorway descended into pitch-black darkness, the bottom unseen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They say someone accidentally opened this tomb. Once inside, they were corroded by demonic energy, and that’s when it became public knowledge,\" Feng Changnian explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are we going in?\" Jiu You asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo nodded and took the lead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The portal beneath was a void-like space, resembling a spatial teleportation array.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xu Zimo entered, he immediately lost his footing and plummeted downward, into what seemed like a bottomless abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that darkness, there was no stable footing. The space was completely chaotic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any resistance could distort the spatial trajectory, and one might be teleported to who-knows-where.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo let his body fall freely. Who knows how long he descended, before the darkness faded and his feet landed on solid ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, Jiu You and the others fell through as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo looked up. The area around them was desolate, almost entirely barren.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only one thing stood out ahead, a massive mountain of white bones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This mountain was made entirely of skeletal remains. It was impossible to guess how many bodies had been used to build it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every bone emitted faint traces of god power. Clearly, they were all corpses of the God Race.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the place,\" Feng Changnian said beside them. \"Last time we came in, we were chased out immediately, barely escaped with our lives.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1161,"2026-06-06T01:06:55.597Z",1,"novelbin.me","918f21f47283df38a214edd13f4bebb6fdbda7365cd35509c075976af7cd0c42","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-712","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-710",1822,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-really-am-a-villain-cover.jpg"]
