Boom!

At the same time, thunder erupted from Ji Haoyuan's palm again.

The thunder flowed into the Red Flood Dragon King's broken seven apertures, extinguishing the last trace of life from its body.

Bang!

As the massive dragon corpse fell, there seemed to be subtle ripples flashing through the void.

The space appeared to be torn apart by a mysterious force.

An infant red dragon, about a meter long, instantly darted out from the enormous dragon corpse, attempting to flee.

Yet, to its utter disbelief, just as the dragon infant emerged.

Chains shimmering with spirit light instantly wrapped around its body, completely binding it.

Soon, runes flew from the spirit light chains and merged into its body.

Gradually, the struggles of the dragon infant grew weaker until it completely quieted down.

Ji Haoyuan raised his hand and caught it, putting it into a jade box.

Thus, the Peak Great Demon King, who caused numerous human Nascent Souls, and even the Great True Monarchs to dread and fear, finally met its end.

However, the battle did not end there.

Ji Haoyuan and Feichen Sword Monarch cast their eyes on some Demon Kings, who were earlier battling Master Binghuo and others.

At this moment, they had lost their will to fight upon witnessing the fall of the Red Flood Dragon King, each desperately trying to flee.

But, momentarily restrained by Master Binghuo and others, they couldn't escape.

This only intensified their inner anxiety.

Clearly, they also understood well.

Even the Peak Great Demon King, the Red Flood Dragon King, had fallen.

If they stayed, their only fate would be complete annihilation by Ji Haoyuan and the others.

Boom!

Only realizing it was already too late.

Previously, without Ji Haoyuan and Feichen Sword Monarch joining the battlefield against Master Binghuo and others, the Demon Kings gained no advantage.

Now, Ji Haoyuan and Feichen Sword Monarch freed their hands, joining the forces against them.

Those Demon Kings present, all tried to escape, but none of them could! Not! One!

Crash—

Soon, waves of spiritual qi surged around them.

All were phenomena brought about by the fall of the Demon Kings.

As everything settled here, all the Demon Kings who came as well as those nearby had fallen.

Resulting in difficulty for the Demon Race to gather sufficient forces to launch an attack on Four Symbols Pass for a long time.

Four Symbols Pass.

Southern District Defense Line.

In a cave within Ji Haoyuan's mansion.

Half a year had passed since they slew the Red Flood Dragon King.

During this half-year, Four Symbols Pass had been relatively calm.

The Demon Race hadn't launched any large-scale attacks.

Without exaggeration, Ji Haoyuan and Feichen Sword Monarch's slaying of the Red Flood Dragon King had greatly deterred many Demon Kings of the Demon Race.

Including Great Demon Kings and Peak Demon Kings.

After all, the strength of the Red Flood Dragon King among the Demon Kings was widely recognized.

No one dared claim their power could surpass the Red Flood Dragon King.

Under such circumstances, if possible, the Demon Kings clearly wanted to avoid confronting Ji Haoyuan and Feichen Sword Monarch.

In this relatively peaceful period, Ji Haoyuan focused on improving his cultivation as much as possible.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

In Ji Haoyuan's cave, rays of mysterious light constantly emanated from him.

These rays seemed to carry some kind of spirituality.

Within a moment, they formed a cocoon of light around Ji Haoyuan, completely enveloping him.

Within the cocoon, Ji Haoyuan's aura was steadily rising.

One day, two days, three days...

Three days later, Ji Haoyuan's magical power seemed to touch some barrier.

This caused his gaze to slightly tighten.

In the next moment, a bamboo shoot resembling jade appeared in his hand.

This was the Celestial Profound Jade Bamboo gifted to him by Feichen Sword Monarch.

The jade bamboo, capable of increasing his magical power by a hundred years.

By consuming it, perhaps he could easily overcome his current bottleneck.

Thoughts of the Celestial Profound Jade Bamboo flashed through his mind.

Ji Haoyuan didn't hesitate further, lifted his hand and placed the Celestial Profound Jade Bamboo in his mouth.

Crunching sound, the entire Celestial Profound Jade Bamboo was swallowed into his stomach.

Boom!

As soon as the bamboo entered his belly, Ji Haoyuan immediately felt a surge of formidable magical power, accumulated over countless years, suddenly erupt from within him.

This magical power was akin to a torrent.

In an instant, it directly broke through his current cultivation bottleneck.

His cultivation immediately advanced from Nascent Soul mid-stage to late-stage.

Rumble!

At that moment, Ji Haoyuan's aura soared.

Behind him, flames, lightning, starlight and other phenomena kept flashing.

Eventually.

Those phenomena froze into a huge golden figure.

It emitted a vast power, akin to a great sun.

It lifted its hand and gently grasped towards the void ahead.

Rip!

In the air, ripples twisted dramatically.

Faintly, there seemed to be signs of breaking.

But ultimately, the twisted ripples couldn't break through some shackle, gradually dissipating.

However, at this moment, a hint of a smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of Ji Haoyuan's mouth.

Just then, he was actually testing himself.

He wanted to see if his maximum power with the Dharma Image could cause spatial cracks.

It's known that only Divinity Transformation Sovereigns can tear space apart.

Though his test didn't break the limits of a Nascent Soul cultivator earlier.

Nonetheless, he realized his current power was infinitely close to the fifth tier.

Perhaps, once he refined his current cultivation to perfection, he could slightly touch the legendary fifth-tier domain.

Though then, he still wouldn't be a match for a Divinity Transformation Sovereign.

At least, he should be able to avoid being a total weakling.

Here or there, he'd have some flexibility and wiggle room.

However.

Before that, perhaps he could craft a fifth-tier level magical treasure.

Even if it couldn't rival a true Spiritual Treasure in power, if managed well, it might unleash fifth-tier power.

And in the future, allow it to truly achieve the status of a Spiritual Treasure.

Thinking of this, Ji Haoyuan flipped his hand.

In his palm, there appeared an object.

This object was an umbrella-shaped magical treasure.

Besides the umbrella surface, adorned with auspicious clouds, the other parts.

Like the handle and shaft, were all crafted from white bones.

And carried the mighty dragon aura.

Indeed.

This object.

Was the Dragon Bone Umbrella, which the Red Flood Dragon King attempted to refine to ascend to Divinity Transformation.
