Chapter 1744: One day alive is one day

"You came at just the right time, all together or one by one?" he asked with a smile.

The four demon commanders and six demon generals did not act immediately.

Among them, the black-faced demon commander Katanpir, who was considered relatively strong, was actually killed in one blow, showing that this holy domain mage was not someone they could handle.

A stone person demon commander said in a deep voice: "Quickly go ask the demon king! This person is probably much stronger than they appear, not something we can handle!"

He didn't need to say it; his subordinates had already gone to report.

Xiao Feng heard this, waved his hand and said: "No need to be so polite, killing a few demon commanders is enough for me to reach demigod. Under the Purgatory Demon God, you only have one demon king left; if I kill him, he'll be all alone."

The Purgatory Demon God once had several demon king subordinates, all of whom were killed by players over the past decade or so, used to drop divine artifacts.

Now only one remains; he feels the opponent is rather pitiful, somewhat reluctant to strike.

He never expected that remark to be misunderstood by the demon commanders!

Several demon commanders exchanged glances, nodded slightly, and transmitted mentally: "It seems he is no match for the demon king; they are wary."

"Let's first hold him steady, avoid conflict."

"I'll charm him!"

These few sentences were transmitted via Divine Sense; they thought Xiao Feng couldn't hear.

Little did they know, Xiao Feng's willpower was far stronger than theirs, hearing every word clearly.

As the transmission ended, a female demon commander with a pair of sheep horns on her head, wearing cool clothing and a seductive figure, floated forward and said: "Warrior, it's not easy for me to cultivate to demigod; when you attack me later, could you be gentle?"

She also winked at him, her peach-blossom eyes glowing pink, silently releasing her charm skill.

Xiao Feng is someone who has seen big scenes; if he couldn't even resist this bit of charm, people would laugh.

He remained unmoved, calmly saying: "No."

The demon commanders immediately breathed a sigh of relief!

"Look, he didn't move! He must have been affected!"

"Eve's charm technique is even praised by the demon king; even our demon king can't resist it, let alone a young adventurer like him."

"As long as we hold him off for a while, once the demon king arrives, we should win."

Several demon commanders were transmitting again, and Xiao Feng heard everything clearly.

His face showed a helpless expression, somewhat wanting to laugh.

This bunch of idiots...

Forget it, just kill them outright, lest seeing the demon king later I can't help but kill another, turning the Purgatory Demon God into a bare-bones commander.

He raised his hand, gathering magical power, and said: "I said no, why don't you believe me?"

He immediately released the power.

Whoosh~

A firestorm swept the surroundings, its size just right to engulf the four great demon commanders and six great demon generals.

"Ah..."

All ten monsters together only let out a single wail before vanishing completely from heaven and earth.

Four divine embryos fell to the ground, emitting a strange glow.

【War Zone Announcement……】

【War Zone Announcement……】

【War Zone Announcement……】

【Congratulations, your level……】

【Congratulations, your level……】

【Congratulations, your level……】

In an instant, the four announcements scrolled by, and Xiao Feng's level shot up, directly reaching level 250 demigod realm.

"Stop!"

At that moment, a low roar came from afar—it was the sole demon king under the Purgatory Demon God.

The demon king had wanted to save his subordinates, but he didn't make it in time.

Looking at the adventurer man whose aura wasn't extremely strong yet gave an incredibly terrifying feeling, he froze.

"Is... is it you!" He recognized Xiao Feng!

Xiao Feng had come here once over a decade ago, and he had remembered it until now!

This is a human so feared even the Purgatory Demon God is terrified, yet those little rascals dared to block him...

Never mind avenging them; it's uncertain whether they can even survive today.

"You... adventurer sir, how did you come back?"

The demon king had just appeared, lowered his posture, and timidly asked.

Xiao Feng glanced at his level and attributes, then calmly replied: "Nothing much, just came to look. I'm leaving; you probably don't want to fight me, right?"

"No no no, I dare not, I dare not!" The demon king's head shook like a rattle drum.

"Alright, then I'm leaving, bye~"

Xiao Feng took out a town return scroll and vanished instantly from the spot.

The demon king watched him leave.

In the distance behind him, the Purgatory Demon God trembled, watching this side.

"Has he left?"

The Purgatory Demon God sent a mental inquiry from afar.

"Probably." The demon king replied.

"Phew, you scared me; I thought today would be my permanent day off." The Purgatory Demon God said, still feeling uneasy.

The Demon King sighed and said, "We've lost five demon marshals and six demon generals, but at least we two are still alive. Demon God, these nerve-wracking days are really hard to bear. Why don't we give up our power and status and find a sparsely populated place to live in seclusion?"

"Ah, no matter where we go it's all the same; those adventurers can still find us. They're 'players,' we're 'monsters,' and every day we're alive is spent on duty, waiting for them to come kill us. Lighten up, my friend—living one day is a day; don't put too much pressure on yourself, and relax when you should." The Purgatory Demon God replied, then immediately returned to the palace.

Over these years of contact with the players, they have not only learned many new terms but also changed their personalities.

Their former arrogance and conceit have already cost them many close friends and subordinates.

Only by learning restraint and caution have they barely managed to preserve their lives.

As for encountering someone like Xiao Feng, an irresistible force, just surviving is a stroke of luck; overthinking it is pointless.

"Ah..."

The Demon King sighed, picked up the four divine crest embryos lying on the ground, and brought them back to the city for burial.

……

War City.

Xiao Feng smoothly reached the demigod threshold in one go; everything proceeded naturally and went very well.

He did not immediately go look for his master La Luo Na Er, but instead returned to Xiao Zhai.

He is still five levels away from ascension and needs to train for a while.

The last time he was at this level, he got stuck for a while due to his willpower; training up to level five also took several days, and altogether it was quite a drawn-out process.

But this time, with cultivation experience and stronger willpower, his progress speed is much faster.

He returned to Xiao Zhai and sat in meditation in the overgrown garden.

"My divine crest embryo in my previous life was a weather crest; this time I directly condensed a chaos-origin crest. I wonder if it will become stronger?" Xiao Feng thought to himself.

The formation of a divine crest is determined by one's attributes; this process requires no manual intervention and completes automatically after a breakthrough.

Before, he was a weather mage by profession, and his inner power was magical energy, so he automatically condensed into a weather crest.

Later, during the stage of becoming a god, his weather attribute waned greatly, being overwritten by the source attribute, which transformed his weather crest embryo into a chaos-origin crest.

Now, the power circulating in his body is always source attribute energy, so his divine crest automatically reverts to the pattern of his previous life at once.

Of course, it is still merely an embryo.
