How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!

The battle at the Guiyuan Realm was about to break out.

From a great distance.

The flames from the battle zone sent shivers down the spine of the many people on the city walls.

Suddenly, dozens of fireballs flew out from the storm, heading towards the tribe and the tide of Fire Beasts.

"Quick, dodge!"

Chaos erupted on the city walls.

Where the fireballs landed, a fiery storm erupted, obliterating all living things.

This flame would kill any Postnatal Stage fighter upon touch, even those in the Innate Stage dared not get close.

The battle went on for a long time, causing severe losses to both the tribes and the Sand Bandits as well as the Fire Beasts.

Eventually, both sides in the Guiyuan Realm were wounded, and the battle came to a temporary end.

One month later.

The two sides in the Guiyuan Realm entered into battle again, this time the High Mountain Tribe launched a massive Array, driving back the red-robed elder.

From that moment, the Fire Demon Sand Bandits fell into a disadvantage.

The High Mountain Tribe transitioned from defenders to attackers.

The High Mountain Clan Chief and another power from the Guiyuan Realm personally pursued the red-robed elder.

Additionally, the tribe deployed large troops to slaughter the Fire Beasts and the sand bandits, intent on wiping them out completely.

In the Gobi, the wind and fire roared, blocking out the sun and sky.

"You've cornered yourself!"

The elder with gray hair said with a light chuckle.

"Gao Yunshan, this time I will personally take your life!"

The High Mountain Clan Chief maintained a righteous demeanor.

The red-robed elder glanced at them, and suddenly a smile crept across his ragged face: "Haha, do you really think you've won?"

Hearing this, the High Mountain Clan Chief and the elder with gray hair furrowed their brows, sensing a bad omen.

"You should know that beneath this world lies a massive seal, and the location of the High Mountain Tribe is right at the heart of that seal!"

The red-robed elder inquired.

"So what? You will never be able to breach the High Mountain Tribe, and now you don't even have the chance!"

The High Mountain Clan Chief spoke calmly.

What Gao Yunshan referred to was the greatest secret of the entire Red Earth World, known only to the Clan Leader and a few elders of the High Mountain Tribe.

"Haha, are there not others among the elders who share my visions?"

The red-robed elder laughed heartily.

"What?"

The High Mountain Clan Chief and the elder with gray hair were visibly shocked.

According to Gao Yunshan, there must be a traitor in the High Mountain Tribe.

At the moment, the tribe had almost fully mobilized to exterminate the Fire Beasts, the sand bandits, and Gao Yunshan.

Inside the tribe, only one elder remained, with very few soldiers.

And all of this seemed to be a part of Gao Yunshan's calculation; perhaps that elder was the turncoat.

"Stop them!"

Gao Yunshan shouted lowly, as he and the Snake-tailed Lion attacked at the same time.

Before, they had only feigned weakness to draw over the two great powers from the Guiyuan Realm of the High Mountain Tribe.

Now, he and the Snake-tailed Lion were going all out, confident they could hold off the two Guiyuan Realm powers completely.

...

High Mountain Tribe.

"It's finally over!"

Chen Yu exclaimed.

The war had been ongoing for nearly three months, and it was finally coming to an end.

During this time, Chen Yu had elevated his "Shocking Evil Sword Technique" to the Great Success Realm through the battlefield struggles, and his "Copper Statue Technique" also reached its peak, just a step away from the highest level of the "True Copper Statue."

Furthermore, over the course of three months, the price of fire cores had soared extremely high.

Chen Yu took the opportunity to sell a batch of fire cores, acquiring many high-quality fire-related resources, and even traded for a piece of "Fire Spirit Crystal Ore."

"Tonight I'll break through to the 'True Copper Statue,' then prepare to leave this place."

Chen Yu made his plans.

At night, the High Mountain Tribe was unusually quiet.

Chen Yu took out two Innate-stage fire cores at once, ground them into powder, and mixed them into a potion.

Upon consuming the potion, Chen Yu felt as if a fire had been lit within him, infinite fierce flames burning his viscera, meridians, and bones.

At the same time, he deployed his "Blood Crystal Flame," attaching it to the surface of his body, coordinating with the potion.

The last bit of medicinal effect from the Ascending Dragon Pill in his body was also stimulated.

Humming!

The ancient bronze patterns on Chen Yu's body vibrated continuously, extending with new lines.

And the layer of qi on his body's surface began to shrink, merging into the surface of his skin.

At this moment, Chen Yu was at the final stage of breaking through to the "True Copper Statue."

His body swelled continuously, creating a sensation of tearing pain.

At a certain moment.

Chen Yu felt that his spiritual consciousness seemed even more closely connected to his body.

A layer of bronze light blossomed from his physique, accompanied by a spiritual pressure.

At that moment, Chen Yu appeared like a true copper statue, emanating a dignified and solemn presence.

Boom!

An astonishing physical power radiated from Chen Yu's body, swelling violently, his body covered with even finer copper patterns, exuding an imposing aura from within, like a living Buddha statue.

"I've done it!"

Chen Yu opened his eyes, ancient yellow light flashing within them.

After achieving the True Copper Statue, Chen Yu's most direct feeling was that his spirit could connect with his body, mutually enhancing each other.

Previously, his spiritual power had already reached the Innate Middle Stage. If combined with the True Copper Statue, he could almost rise another level, approaching the Late Innate Stage.

"This is truly miraculous!"

Chen Yu was pleasantly surprised.

"I wonder to what extent my strength and defense have reached now!"

Chen Yu was slightly excited and felt the urge to try it out.

Just at this moment, a commotion came from outside.

"Second team, sixth team, twelfth team… assemble!"

Just coming outside, he saw a high-ranking member of the tribe shouting from a high spot.

"Fire Beasts are digging tunnels beneath the ground in an attempt to infiltrate the High Mountain Tribe. All the troops remaining in the High Mountain Tribe, come out and exterminate them!"

A purple-faced elder announced loudly.

This person was an elder of the High Mountain Tribe, at the Late Innate Stage.

After the Clan Leader and some elders broke out to fight, this elder held the highest position within the tribe.

"The beasts are actually underground? It seems that the Fire Demon Sand Bandits were preparing to ambush us, but unfortunately, they were discovered!"

"The power of the Fire Demon Sand Bandits has diminished. This time, the Clan Leader and his troops will surely annihilate them completely!"

Everyone discussed among themselves.

Finally, five teams were assembled and immediately set out.

The teams arrived at the mining entrance behind the tribe's mountains and entered.

Once underground, the people reached an exceptionally spacious mining cavern space.

They didn't proceed far.

Boom bang!

The wall in front of them suddenly burst open, and from within, fire beasts adept at tunneling charged out.

"Kill!"

The five teams immediately launched their attack.

"If there's a chance later, kill Chen Yu!"

Within the team, Dou Nanhua communicated with other members.

They had never caught the opportunity before, but perhaps this chaotic underground battle might present one.

Jiangling Yuan, the man with the hawk-nosed, and others nodded, keeping an eye on Chen Yu's movements.

However, just at that moment.

At the rear of the team, the purple-faced elder and several other elders suddenly launched a deadly attack on the tribal troops.

"Ah..."

Instantly, more than a dozen people screamed and lost their lives.

Additionally, another team also suddenly attacked the remaining four teams.

With fire beasts ahead and betrayal behind, everyone instantly found themselves surrounded.

Moreover, the traitors were an elder and several other elders, with profound cultivation and formidable strength.

The fire beasts on the other side were also extremely powerful.

"Elder, how could you..."

"Ah, why..."

Tribe member after tribe member died with their eyes wide open.

"What is going on?"

Dou Nanhua and the others were stunned, how could things have turned out this way?

Chen Yu's expression darkened slightly.

He faintly felt that the war had not truly ended.

"Hehe, we'll leave these people to you to deal with!"

From behind the group of fire beasts, several red-robed elders emerged.

They did not join the battle but instead hurried to every corner of this space, taking out many array crafting tools from their storage bags, evidently setting up an array.

"Boy, prepare to die."

A grey-robed elder launched a surprise attack on Chen Yu.

Chen Yu had gained a not-insignificant reputation in this battle, especially with a Spirit Pet like the Fire Scale Beast, making him a prime target.

Swoosh!

The grey-robed elder wielded a long sword, its blade surrounded by hot flames, forming layers of red sword shadows, and fiercely thrust it.

"Eat my fist!"

Chen Yu activated his True Copper Statue technique, instantly transforming into a copper figure, his body emanating a faint ancient copper glow, inspiring a sense of solemnity and divinity.

"Seeking death!"

The grey-robed elder chuckled disdainfully, Chen Yu was actually meeting his sword with a fist.

Clang!

Fist and sword collided, the grey-robed elder immediately felt a tremendous force, his arm trembled violently, the webbing of his hand ached, and his long sword dropped to the side.

In contrast, only a sword mark remained on Chen Yu's fist, which healed in an instance.

"How is this possible?"

The grey-robed elder couldn't believe it.

As someone of the Innate Middle Stage, his sudden attack on Chen Yu was thwarted with a single punch.

"Eat another one of my punches!"

Chen Yu, with a smile on his face, fiercely charged at the grey-robed elder.

The grey-robed elder, too late to dodge, could only circulate his True Qi to resist Chen Yu's punch.

He no longer underestimated Chen Yu, fully circulating his True Qi to form a Fire Pattern Light Shield around his body.

"Break!"

That coppery fist, shining with an ancient copper glow, struck the Fire Pattern Light Shield.

Boom crack!

Almost instantly, the Fire Pattern Light Shield shattered, and the punch landed on the grey-robed elder's chest.

Boom bang!

The grey-robed elder was thrown against the wall like a cannonball, coughing up several mouthfuls of fresh blood.

His chest clothes were torn, including his inner armor, which was completely destroyed.

"What?"

The other elders and the purple-faced elder, witnessing this scene, showed expressions of shock.

"Hehe, not bad!"

Chen Yu chuckled softly.

With the strength of his True Copper Statue body fully unleashed, his power reached that of the Innate Middle Stage.

"Let's go!"

Chen Yu, having repelled an elder, swiftly looked for a way out.

"Hmph, no one is escaping!"

The purple-faced elder's figure flickered, blocking Chen Yu's path.

He extended his palm, which unveiled a ball of purplish-red flame, emitting a faint light and a heart-palpitating aura.

"Late Innate!"

Chen Yu's expression became stern, the copper glow on his body intensifying.

Evil Qi takes form!

The Evil Qi within him circulated outwards, transforming his glowing coppery arm into a black giant serpent with scales that shimmered with a dark yellow luster, giving a metallic feel.

Boom bang!

Fist and palm struck each other, producing a dull boom, and a burst of flame and black wind exploded.

Chen Yu and the purple-faced elder each took several steps back.

"This kid!"

The purple-faced elder's face showed disbelief as he stared at Chen Yu.

Though he hadn't attacked with full force, the strength bursting forth from Chen Yu's fist left his palm tingling with numbness.
