He knew it was time to make a move!

Once the right moment passed, there's no telling what kind of unexpected complications might arise.

He rapidly activated his Extreme Thunder Technique, and a moment later, a colossal Thunder Dragon emerged from the Thunder Sea.

This Thunder Dragon was over ten times larger than the ones that appeared before and looked even more lifelike.

With a thunderous roar that could burst eardrums, the enormous Thunder Dragon plunged straight toward the Lotus Avatar ahead.

Five Breaths later, a booming noise erupted as the Thunder Dragon pounced directly onto the Lotus Avatar, blasting her body apart.

Seeing the Lotus Avatar shattered, Duan Gujin finally breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly withdrew the Thunder Sea and immediately sat down cross-legged on the spot, recuperating his energies.

Miao Yu, who was standing in the distance, was thoroughly shocked to see Duan Gujin successfully slay a Demon Saint, specifically the Lotus Avatar of the Suspended Holy Mother.

She had previously speculated that after passing through the Space-Time Treasure Hall and gaining four pieces of Immortal Destiny, Duan Gujin's strength would be formidable, but she never imagined his power could be so immense that he could slay a Lotus Avatar of the Suspended Holy Mother.

"His Combat Power is indeed mighty!"

Her eyes flashed like a painting, and she realized that Duan Gujin had not even used his Battle Puppet to deal with the Lotus Avatar.

If he had employed the Battle Puppet from the start to confront the Lotus Avatar, he would have handled her even more effortlessly.

Some demons in the vicinity were very tempted to rush over to investigate what exactly happened but after giving it some thought, they abandoned the idea.

Although they didn't know the full truth, they had clearly felt the presence of a Demon Saint's energy being extinguished.

They knew that the middle-aged Male Demon in front of them was a hidden expert. Although he seemed to possess only the power of the Martial Emperor Seventh Layer, he could completely annihilate a Demon Saint!

When Duan Gujin saw Miao Yu approaching, he asked her to help him leave the area.

Before leaving, Miao Yu asked, "Duan Gujin, don't we need to kill those demons?"

"No need! I loudly proclaimed my identity as the Suspended Holy Mother's secret agent to mislead her attention!"

Duan Gujin replied in a secret transmission.

"Oh, then let's leave immediately!"

Miao Yu quickly supported Duan Gu Jinzhao as they moved toward the east.

An hour later, at the site of the previous explosion, another Lotus Avatar appeared.

This Lotus Avatar sensed a powerful explosion nearby, traces of a high-level demon saint clashing, which led her to come over.

After inspecting the area of the explosion for a while, she confirmed that indeed a Lotus Avatar had been destroyed there.

Her expression changed drastically, and she immediately released a butterfly into the sky.

Once the butterfly reached space, it transformed into ten huge butterflies and flew rapidly toward the nearby Lotus Avatars.

After calling for reinforcements, the Lotus Avatar quickly captured some of the nearby demon tribe members.

She learned the sequence of events from the demons' mouths.

"That's impossible, right? How could the Holy Mother's confidant come to blows with us, the Lotus Avatars?"

Initially, the Lotus Avatar thought the demons might have seen it wrong. To understand more of the truth, she captured the demons from the village and forcibly read their memories.

Soon, she learned the general course of events.

"Could it be that the previous Lotus Saintess actually encountered a spy? And they even fought? That seems highly unlikely."

The Lotus Avatar couldn't quite comprehend these details.

An hour later, three Lotus Avatars sped towards the vicinity from a distance.

The four Lotus Avatars discussed the matter and reached a conclusion – it's very likely that a member of the Devil Clan was impersonating as a covert agent of the Suspended Holy Mother, but was discovered by one of the Lotus Avatars, leading to a battle.

However, the impostor was powerful and ended up destroying the Lotus Avatar.

Despite the Suspended Holy Mother having many Lotus Avatars, the fact that one was destroyed here in Xuankong Mountain by a Male Demon was unprecedented.

After all, in Xuankong Mountain, the name of the Suspended Holy Mother was the authority, holding sway over the life and death of all demons living here.

And now, daringly, a demon impersonating a covert agent committed murder, killing a Lotus Avatar – it was the boldest rebellion in the history of Xuankong Mountain.

"We must immediately summon all Lotus Avatars here!"

After the four Lotus Avatars consulted for a while, they informed the Suspended Holy Mother, to allow her to make the final decision.

Upon hearing the news, the Suspended Holy Mother sent out a call to all Lotus Avatars to rush to the location where Duan Gujin had destroyed that Lotus Avatar, and she also sent out all covert agents to coordinate in the search.

In no time, thousands of confidants of the Suspended Holy Mother appeared in the village.

The confidants immediately dispersed in all directions, searching for Duan Gujin and Miao Yu.

By this time, Duan Gujin and Miao Yu had already traveled far away.

And on the way, Duan Gujin had fully recovered his Combat Power.

They ran wildly, reaching into some of the demon tribes.

They had already disguised themselves on the way; unless it was a Demon Saint-level expert examining them, the ordinary demons could never detect that they were in disguise.

But in these demon tribes, Duan Gujin and Miao Yu could not find any information.

Although the Suspended Holy Mother sent Lotus Avatars and covert agents to look for the two, the demon tribes of Xuankong Mountain were not aware of this news. The ordinary demons of the tribes were simply using images on wanted posters to search for 'Duan Gujin' and 'Miao Yu.'

The ordinary demons had no idea that the very people they were looking for were right under their noses.

Three days later, Duan Gujin sensed many demon experts nearby, including Lotus Avatars and other experts from various demon species.

"It seems the Suspended Holy Mother has probably noticed our existence!" Duan Gujin and Miao Yu, though very worried, were relieved that their hiding skills were strong, as the demon experts had not discovered their hiding place.

"It looks like we'll have to hide all over Xuankong Mountain for the next year!" Duan Gujin frowned deeply. He didn't want to spend every day in hiding and contemplated finding a spot in Xuankong Mountain that was unnoticed by other demons, where he could hide for an extended period.

So, he set out to scout for such places.

After some investigation, he finally learned that there were indeed three very mystical locations within Xuankong Mountain.

These three mystical places were listed as Forbidden Lands by Xuankong Mountain; one was the Endless Canyon to the south.

As soon as a demon entered the canyon, it would manifest a powerful gravitational force, preventing further entry.

If a demon truly wished to force their way downward into the canyon, they would have to withstand gravity as heavy as a mountain.

Furthermore, as the demon progressed deeper, the gravity of the canyon would increase incrementally.

After learning about the Endless Canyon, Duan Gujin suddenly became interested.

"It seems ordinary demons cannot enter the Endless Canyon, and I am not a demon – I wonder what will happen if I enter it?" he thought to himself.
