Seeing the enemy charging towards him, Jialuo Demon King's heart suddenly filled with immense fear.

He knew very well that he was no longer in his peak state; he was now merely a residual soul. Although he still clung to a part of his former body, that part contained almost none of his previous attribute power.

"Human! You deserve to die!"

Jialuo Demon King roared furiously, and the aura around him erupted once again.

A very sturdy defensive light shield formed around its body, protecting it.

Upon seeing the opponent release a defensive light shield, Duan Gujin was instantly overjoyed, knowing that the opponent had made a wrong move.

"Excellent!"

He quickly suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and injected Primordial Power into his fists, launching countless heavy punches at that defensive light shield.

Boom Boom Boom Boom!

Loud collision sounds erupted in the void.

"Human, you deserve to die!"

Inside the defensive light shield, Jialuo Demon King's body was in severe pain; it felt as if its body was about to be torn apart.

"Stop acting in front of me! You have hardly any strength left now; you're just being stubborn with your words. You want to kill me? Come on then! Don't use the defensive light shield! Come trample me right here! Desecrate me! I just wish you could rough me up like a man, thoroughly trample and desecrate me!"

Duan Gujin burst into laughter.

"Ha ha ha!"

The crowd outside, upon hearing Duan Gujin's words, all followed suit and laughed along.

At first, they were somewhat doubtful.

But now, Duan Gujin's extreme insults towards Jialuo Demon King, whom evidently didn't dare do anything to Duan Gujin, was enough to illustrate the opponent's lack of real power; the opponent was nothing but a paper tiger.

After a while, Duan Gujin laughed again.

"Now I finally understand what's going on with you, Jialuo Demon King. You must be suffering now; your body has been destroyed by me, and now you are nothing more than a completely residual soul! As a residual soul, you couldn't possibly harness the Netherworld Power! Therefore, you might as well accept your death!"

Duan Gujin's eyes shot out a sharp, cold light, as the Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul within him suddenly exploded, transforming into a shadow that pounced towards Jialuo Demon King's residual soul.

"What is this?"

At this moment, Jialuo Demon King was scared. It had sensed earlier that the Martial Soul within Duan Gujin was completely different from the martial souls of the typical Human Clan but had no idea what a Demonized Martial Soul was.

Therefore, it could only hold its doubts at heart, always on guard against Duan Gujin.

Now, it finally saw Duan Gujin's Martial Soul.

When it did, it felt an unprecedented fear towards Duan Gujin's Martial Soul.

"Good heavens! Why does this human's Martial Soul make me feel so much fear?"

Jialuo Demon King had long been a famous king of the Netherworld Dark Clan. The Demonized Martial Soul that Duan Gujin was now releasing was the result of the Ultimate Demon Emperor's years of cultivation and evolution; it was logical that it didn't recognize it.

"Who exactly are you?"

Jialuo Demon King asked.

"You don't need to know. You must die!"

Duan Gujin said coldly, knowing that the Netherworld Dark Clan was a completely different alien race from the Human Clan.

If a human died and their body was torn into pieces, it meant that this human was truly dead beyond return.

But the Netherworld Dark Clan was different; even if their body died, any part of their body contained some memories from when they were alive.

As long as the body of the Netherworld Dark Clan was not completely destroyed, that member of the Netherworld Dark Clan could still be resurrected.

Furthermore, the Netherworld Dark Clan could also achieve resurrection by taking over the body of any living creature.

The capability of the Netherworld Dark Clan truly strikes fear into the hearts of all from the Human Clan across the continents; the humans fear most those demons capable of endless resurrection.

Thankfully, there is one critical weakness that the Netherworld Dark Clan possesses; they dread both flame and sunlight.

In numerous continents, patrol soldiers always keep ready some simple, yet effective, Fire Attribute Crystal Stones.

Whenever those patrol soldiers encounter suspicious individuals, they place the Fire Attribute Crystal Stones in the hands of those who are suspected.

As long as no burn marks appear on the palms of these suspicious individuals, the patrol soldiers would let them go.

Sizzling!

Sizzling!

Moments later, a rushed sizzling sound transmitted from the void.

"What?"

Upon seeing the black smoke surrounding his body being ignited fiercely like kerosene upon contact with the black shadows released by Duan Gujin, the Jialuo Demon King was so terrified his soul nearly shattered, panic filling his heart.

"How can this be? Who on earth are you?"

The Jialuo Demon King asked in fright.

Duan Gujin's face beamed with joy; from the tone of Jialuo Demon King's speech, he deduced that the latter was indeed fearful of him.

"It seems that it is terrified of my Demonized Martial Soul!"

Duan Gujin's eyes gleamed; he eagerly urged his Primordial Power, fully releasing the strength of the Demonized Martial Soul.

"This is the Demonized Martial Soul, something you certainly wouldn't recognize!"

Duan Gujin stated coldly.

Not easing up in the slightest, he immediately employed the force emitted by the Demonized Martial Soul to confront the Jialuo Demon King.

The sizzling sound was incessant, and after 15 minutes passed, the Jialuo Demon King saw that over half of the black mist surrounding its body had dissipated.

Its heart thudded wildly; it knew that if the protective black mist was completely devoured by the opponent, what would remain was only a Residual Soul, utterly defenseless.

Once only a Residual Soul remained, should the opponent douse its Residual Soul in kerosene, it would instantly turn to ashes, ceasing to exist in this world ever again.

Upon this realization, an overwhelming fear grew within.

"My friend, please stop! I was wrong, please forgive everything I did in the past, I am truly sorry, I beg you, a member of the Human Clan, please spare my life!"

The crowd outside, upon hearing the Jialuo Demon King beg for mercy, were all stupefied.

"My heavens! The Jialuo Demon King is begging for mercy!"

One could barely imagine their astonishment, as they still remained trapped outside an Imprisonment Space, powerless to break through it despite their numbers.

And now, that eighteen-year-old youth called Duan Gujin had forced the immensely powerful Jialuo Demon King to the point of begging for mercy, which attests to how terrifying the strength of that young man was.

"Duan Gujin is truly powerful!"

Zhu Ge Hongyun gasped, initially believing that Duan Gujin would be killed by the Jialuo Demon King within the Imprisonment Space, having been worried about Duan Gujin's safety all this time.

But now he had heard the Jialuo Demon King's plea for mercy towards Duan Gujin, a twist of fate entirely beyond his expectations.

"This is bad! This may be the Jialuo Demon King's ploy!"

Having come to this conclusion, Zhu Ge Hongyun's expression drastically changed.

"Duan Gujin, can you hear my shout? If you can hear me, don't believe the words of the Jialuo Demon King, it's deceiving you!"

Moments later, Zhu Ge Hongyun urgently used all his Primordial Power to shout out his message.

His cry was deafening, echoing through the heavens, startling the birds and beasts for miles around.

Hearing Zhu Ge Hongyun's outcry, others quickly realized that the Jialuo Demon King's plea might very well be a conspiracy; they broke into a sweat for Duan Gujin.

"Let's hope that the young man does not fall for the Jialuo Demon King's ruse!"
