As the middle-aged demon king's palm was about to land solidly on Su Nan, in a critical moment, Su Nan's aura surged once again!
His body seemed to be covered with a layer of golden foil, and his entire skin shone with dazzling golden light.
This was the power of the Great Sun Golden Body!
"This..."
Seeing the transformation of Su Nan's body and feeling the terrifying power surging from within him, the middle-aged demon king's expression finally changed.
Su Nan once again struck with a fierce punch, colliding heavily with the middle-aged demon king's palm.
A dull thunderous roar echoed, and it seemed like the very space was about to shatter.
Under that single strike, not only did the middle-aged demon king fail to kill Su Nan, but he couldn't even inflict a severe injury.
Seizing this opportunity, Su Nan grabbed the arm of the middle-aged demon king and pulled him downward forcefully.
"Come down!"
Despite being blessed with strength equivalent to that of a King, due to the constraints of his current abilities, Su Nan couldn't manipulate the power of heaven and earth or engage in combat with a demon in mid-air.
Only on the ground could he fully unleash his strength.
Both sides plummeted from the sky, and Su Nan did not pause for a moment, launching another attack on the middle-aged demon king.
"Kid, you've successfully provoked my anger!"
The middle-aged demon king was furious; the power of heaven and earth converged in his fist as he instantly appeared in front of Su Nan, aiming to smash Su Nan's head with a devastating punch.
Su Nan wasn't afraid either and engaged in the head-on clash with the middle-aged demon king.
His incarnated body was formed from Divine Gold and Green Gold Stone, originally possessing formidable physical strength. Now, with the added power of the Great Sun Golden Body, even without the power of heaven and earth, he was on par with the middle-aged demon king.
The clash between the two unleashed a violent surge of power, causing the earth to rupture and buildings to crumble wherever they passed.
Such a transformation naturally caught the attention of the fleeing players.
"It's Wang Nan! Wang Nan!"
"Wang Nan is here to save us!"
"What? Wang Nan is here? That's fantastic!"
The news of Wang Nan's appearance spread like wildfire.
Suddenly, many ordinary people, who had resigned themselves to their fate, saw a glimmer of hope in their eyes.
"How is this possible? How can he be so strong?"
The members of the Night Watch were taken aback when they witnessed Su Nan's strength; each of them was left in shock.
They had initially thought that Su Nan would only be able to barely withstand the power of the demon king and perhaps lead it away. But now, Su Nan was on par with the demon king.
"The Great Sun Golden Body Technique! That's definitely the power of the Great Sun Golden Body Technique!"
Yang Zheng realized something as he looked at Su Nan's golden body, his breath quickening.
"The Great Sun Golden Body Technique? Has he mastered it so quickly?"
Others also remembered the ancient scripture that had been exchanged in the contribution store and were astonished.
"Is the power of the ancient scripture really that strong?"
"The power of the ancient scripture is secondary; the most important thing is that he was already formidable to begin with, and the Great Sun Golden Body Technique is just the icing on the cake!"
The sounds of their clashes reverberated throughout the city.
In just a few breaths, they had engaged in countless rounds of combat.
"Kid, I admit you're formidable, but today, you're destined to die by my hands!"
The middle-aged demon king was terrified, never expecting a human in the early Profound level to erupt with the strength of a King-level being.
It was simply inconceivable.
He couldn't let Su Nan leave alive; he absolutely couldn't!
The middle-aged demon king shouted internally, unable to imagine the consequences if Su Nan continued to grow stronger.
Fortunately, at this moment, he felt Su Nan's power beginning to diminish!
In his view, if they continued like this, the battle would inevitably end with Su Nan's death.
Ignoring the middle-aged demon king's taunts, Su Nan muttered to himself, "It's almost over; it's time to end this."
Previously, the power of the Great Sun Golden Body Technique had been used to display the Golden Body Radiance. Now, with very little power left, he could only use it for a few more breaths.
Now, more than half of the time had passed, and the power of the Great Sun Golden Body was starting to wane. There was no more room for delay.
He had to end this battle.
In the next moment, his aura surged once again, reaching an unprecedented peak.
Racial talent, One Force Shattering the Heavens!
He had never used his racial talent, wanting to see how far he could go with the power of the Great Sun Golden Body. The current results satisfied him.
Although, under the influence of his physical bloodline and the Great Sun Golden Body's power, he couldn't kill the middle-aged demon king, he could still go head-to-head with him.
"How is this possible? How can you still use your racial talent?"
The middle-aged demon king was in shock, completely losing his composure.
A person could only possess one racial talent; that was something no one could change.
He had always believed that Su Nan's surge in power was due to his racial talent, but now, Su Nan had once again increased his power, leaving him baffled as to how Su Nan had achieved it.
Su Nan naturally wouldn't explain himself; he had no intention of engaging in idle chatter. He immediately launched another attack on the demon king.
This time, both his speed and strength had increased significantly, surpassing the middle-aged demon king.
The middle-aged demon king realized that things were going south and turned to flee.
As long as he could survive this ordeal, victory would ultimately be his once Su Nan's racial talent effect faded.
Controlling the power of heaven and earth, his body shot up into the air.
He could see that as long as he remained in the air, Su Nan would be helpless against him.
Su Nan could clearly see his intentions, so how could he allow the demon king to escape?
"Stay here!"
Watching the demon king ascend into the sky, Su Nan didn't attempt to jump and attack, as that would be easily avoided.
Without the power of heaven and earth, he had his own supernatural ability, the Transcendent Skyshift!
In an instant, his figure disappeared from the spot, only to reappear behind the middle-aged demon king.
The middle-aged demon king hadn't reacted in time, and Su Nan's fist had already descended.
"No!"
The middle-aged demon king roared.
An unprecedented crisis loomed over him; at that moment, he felt the threat of death!
He wanted to dodge, but it was already too late.
"Bang!"
Su Nan showed no mercy and unleashed the most powerful strike of One Force Shattering the Heavens.
With this strike, his strength was instantly depleted.
The result, however, left him very satisfied.
With a single punch, the middle-aged demon king's body was pierced, his heart exploded, and a spray of blood filled the air. The tremendous force sent the middle-aged demon king plummeting to the road below like a cannonball, crashing down with great force.
Su Nan descended and silently watched the middle-aged demon king.
Blood spewed from the middle-aged demon king's mouth as he struggled to get up, but ultimately, he fell down, and his final gaze toward Su Nan was filled with unwillingness.
He couldn't understand, even in death, why he had been defeated by a mere early Profound-level youngster.
Dead!
A King-level early-stage physique-based demon was killed just like that by Su Nan.
"Hiss..."
"He... How did he suddenly become so powerful?"
The players gasped in astonishment, shocked by Su Nan's strength.
"Racial talent! What kind of racial talent is that, and how can it boost his strength so much?"
"It's only been a short time, and he's already grown to this extent. If he continues like this, what will happen to us..."
Several Night Watch members looked horrified, exchanging knowing glances, sensing the gravity of the situation.
"The demon king is dead!"
"That demon king is dead! He was killed by the great god Wang Nan!"
"Great! This is great! I survived! I actually survived!"
Soon, the surviving players and ordinary people received the news, and their joy knew no bounds.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, their faces filled with relief after surviving the ordeal.
The news quickly spread through forums.
When players from other regions learned that Wang Nan had killed the middle-aged demon king, they were shocked beyond belief.
And those who had been the first batch of players on the leaderboard were both envious and resentful.
They couldn't understand why there was such a big difference, even though they were all among the first to enter the game.
No one had noticed.
Meanwhile, on a hill several dozen miles away, several black-clad figures had gloomy expressions.
"He actually killed that demon king?"
The black-clad individuals exchanged glances, their eyes filled with doubt.
They had originally planned to wait until Su Nan was severely injured by the demon king before finding an opportunity to deliver a fatal blow.
The current situation, however, was completely unexpected.
"What should we do? Should we strike now?"
"That guy may have killed the demon king, but he's probably exhausted all his means by now. He might be running on fumes. If we strike now, we could easily kill him, and the opportunity is too good to pass up."
Some advocated for immediate action.
But there were also those who opposed it:
"No, I think we should play it safe. Even if that guy is exhausted, he might still have other tricks up his sleeve, and we might not escape unscathed."
Hearing this, the others fell silent, unsure whether to act or not.
Killing a King-level demon was a far cry from facing one. Even if Su Nan was now almost out of strength, it might still be easy for him to kill them.
For them, the current choice was undoubtedly a gamble.
Win, and Su Nan dies.
Lose, and they die.
In the end, the group could only look at one tall black-clad individual, waiting for his decision.
The tall black-clad man remained silent for a moment and then looked in another direction.
Where the Night Watch members and official players were located.
"Members of the Night Watch are also present. Even if that Wang Nan is truly exhausted, we may not have a chance to strike now. Instead of taking a gamble, it's safer to enter the Demon and Monster World first."
Not gambling meant not losing. The tall black-clad man chose the safer option.
He didn't know that at this moment, Su Nan was indeed exhausted, but it was impossible for them to kill him.
Su Nan stored the middle-aged demon king's body in his storage ring and looked at the approaching crowd with a slight frown.
His strength had been depleted, and this was the most dangerous moment.
This place was not suitable for a prolonged stay.
Using the Transcendent Skyshift once again, he disappeared into thin air before the eyes of the crowd.
When he reappeared, he was in an uninhabited area several kilometers away.
Changing forms once again with the Thousand Transformations technique, he transformed into an inconspicuous bird and took flight.
"Is he just leaving like this? Wang Nan is indeed cautious."
"That's one demon king dealt with. Now, there's one more to go. I wonder if he can handle it."
The death of the first demon king was a great source of encouragement for the entire Huaxia.
At this moment, people saw hope for the eradication of the monsters.
Countless eyes were fixed on the forums, all focused on Mount Song.
"May the Buddha bless us. We must kill the monsters!"
"May the Buddha protect us..."
People hoped and prayed, expecting the divine miracles that had occurred on Mount Song not long ago to reappear.
Many even began to burn incense at home, facing in the direction of Mount Song and offering prayers.
On Mount Song.
Su Nan felt the surging power of wishes and smiled at the corner of his mouth.
In just a short moment, his incense offerings had grown longer.
"It's about time for this game to end now that it has come into reality."
It had been more than twenty minutes since the appearance of the spatial portals. By now, most of the portals had already closed, and even the ones remaining had only sporadic monsters appearing through them.
In just a few more minutes, all the portals would likely disappear completely.
However, the closure of the portals did not mean that the human crisis was over.
Su Nan gazed towards the south.
Accompanied by the roar of fighter jets, he had already seen a graceful figure approaching rapidly.
"Finally, she's here."
His expression remained unchanged as he prepared to take action.
Soon, the second demon king was drawn to Mount Song.
At this point, all the fighter jets completed their mission and withdrew.
Seeing this, the female demon king was not surprised. On the contrary, as she looked at the peaks before her, a cold smile appeared on her face.
"Interesting. I want to see what awaits me here."
Along the way, she had already figured out the purpose of those drones. They appeared to be attacking her, but in reality, they were deliberately trying to lure her in. She had even heard that there were powerful beings waiting on these mountains.
And the reason she still came was to see what the most powerful presence in this world, mostly filled with ordinary people, could achieve.
In a low whisper, a crimson fire dragon condensed around her.
The fire dragon danced and circled, emitting a fierce aura, with raging power overflowing.
Her goal was simple: to destroy the mountains here directly.
Seeing this scene, the onlookers were not alarmed but rather pleased.
Although they had successfully lured the demon to this location, it was still a problem to provoke the intervention of the Golden Buddha.
Now that this female demon took the initiative, it was in line with their wishes.
"Boom..."
The fire dragon headed straight for one of the mountains, causing rocks to shatter, and a small mountain was directly reduced to flat ground.
However, when everything calmed down, nothing strange had occurred.
"How could this be? Where is the Golden Buddha? Why isn't the Golden Buddha intervening?"
Many players were anxious, especially those near Mount Song.
If the Golden Buddha didn't intervene, they would be in trouble.
In comparison, the people at the Great Jing City Command Center were even more anxious.
"Could it be that the ability of that person can only be used once?"
They had resorted to luring the demon king to Mount Song as a last resort, and it was a gamble.
But now, things seemed to be heading in the worst possible direction.
"Why isn't he coming out?"
"Is he too afraid to come out?"
The woman sneered, convinced that there was indeed a so-called strong presence on this mountain.
However, in her eyes, that so-called strong presence was nothing but an ant.
The woman stood in the void, not taking any further action, as she scanned the mountains below.
Suddenly, she noticed something, and a cold smile appeared on her lips.
"I've found you!"
