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

"Green Flame Bloodline? I guess I'll make do with it."

Chen Yu chuckled lightly.

The Green Flame Bloodline of the You Clan could enhance the instantaneous burst power and also strengthen the True Yuan, thus elevating the combat capabilities to a certain extent.

However, for Chen Yu, who possessed the Golden Winged Phoenix Bloodline, the Green Flame Bloodline seemed quite ordinary. To say it was "make-do" was indeed no mistake.

"Is this… the bloodline power of that woman just now?"

"You've just drawn her Bloodline Power and made it your own; are you an offspring of the Blood-sucking Clan?"

The Hill Giant's face turned to shock upon witnessing this scene.

Although he had never seen a true descendant of the Blood-sucking Clan, he had heard some of the formidable Stone Race talk about this race, described as extremely powerful in their words.

Even if the Blood-sucking Clan did not have much restraint against the Stone Race, the sheer power of this race still caused the Stone Race to feel apprehension and dread.

"Descendant of the Blood-sucking Clan, what are your intentions coming to the Stone Cloud Realm?"

The Hill Giant looked at Chen Yu very seriously, his voice trembling with emotion.

"It seems that the Stone Race beings of the Stone Cloud Realm don't know that the entire realm has been taken under control by the major sect forces of the Great Yu Realm."

Chen Yu thought to himself.

This was the fate of the weak, manipulated by the strong, yet completely unaware, even pitiable.

Chen Yu made up his mind to control his own destiny!

"If you don't talk, I'll kill you and be done with it!"

Out of fear of the Blood-sucking Clan offspring, the Hill Giant resolved it would be best to kill his opponent as quickly as possible.

He roared loudly, lifting the giant hammer in his hand, and struck down once more.

The Hill Giant's strength was a formidable presence even among the Stone Race, and Chen Yu dared not meet it head-on.

Boom!

Chen Yu's True Yuan burst forth, retreating a distance before sweeping across with his sword.

The black sword light etched with demonic patterns, surrounded by green flames, clashed against the Hill Giant's hammer.

At this moment, Chen Yu's sword attack far surpassed the Half-step Sky Sea Realm, nearing the level of the Sky Sea Realm.

But the Hill Giant was also extremely strong, his cultivation nearing the Sky Sea Realm, and his bodily defensive power was outstanding.

Peng!

The giant hammer in the Hill Giant's hand cracked, he stepped back to stabilize his figure.

He showed no fear; leaping up, his massive body seemed to turn into a small hill, plummeting from the sky.

Whoosh!

Chen Yu performed the Demon Dragon Shadow Control, retreating swiftly.

The Hill Giant's speed was a major weakness, and Chen Yu could deal with it effortlessly.

Boom!

After evading, Chen Yu unleashed the Demonic Qi Slash, the black-green sword light forming a crescent dozens of feet long, slicing forth.

Ding chi!

The Hill Giant swung his arms to block, the sword light chopping down, creating a five-inch deep cut.

For the massive Hill Giant, a five-inch deep wound was insignificant.

Roar!

The Hill Giant roared in anger, striking the ground forcefully with both arms, causing the earth to rupture.

He dug deep into the ground with his arms, using his natural talent to gather a rock block nearly a hundred feet in length and smash it down towards Chen Yu.

Such divine power would likely deter even Cui Ming and You Lie, both at the Half-step Sky Sea Realm, prompting them to momentarily dodge.

Chen Yu was undaunted, activating the fourth demonic pattern and launching the Swallowing Cloud Demon Fist.

Amplified by the Green Flame Bloodline, a giant black fist wrapped in archaic green flames collided with the hundred-foot-long hard rock block.

Booming Peng!

Demon clouds blasted out, engulfing everything, with debris falling continuously.

"Mountain God Fist!"

The Hill Giant brought his palms together, releasing a burst of dark yellow True Essence Power.

The massive True Essence Power was unleashed, the ground thundering, countless soil and stones rising, coalescing into an enormous arm.

The Mountain God Fist, one of the secret techniques of the Hill Giant, was very costly.

That giant arm, like a pillar supporting the sky, with the fist at the front massive and solid, encompassing a vast range as if it could destroy everything.

Before the Mountain God Fist even struck, a heavy force enveloped Chen Yu, making it difficult for him to dodge.

Fighting against the Hill Giant was mostly a matter of avoiding strengths and exploiting weaknesses, victorious through speed.

But Chen Yu was different; both defense and strength were his advantages.

Faced with the Hill Giant's punch, Chen Yu did not shrink back; instead, he was full of fighting spirit.

Thud thud! Thud thud thud!

Chen Yu's heart erupted, the power of his physique doubling as he swept out with his sword at full force, creating a vast swath of dark sword illumination.

Enhanced by the Green Flame Bloodline, the might of this sword burst even greater, the dark, domineering sword waves entwined with green flames, slicing away.

Bang!

The raging sword sweep struck, hitting squarely on the Mountain God Fist.

After a standoff for just a moment, a "crack" was heard, and cracks appeared on the large solid Mountain God Fist.

Those cracks gradually widened, spreading across half of the fist.

Then, the giant sword light imbued with black and green suddenly exploded, sweeping across, shearing off half of the Mountain God Fist!

"How is this possible?"

The Hill Giant stood petrified, dumbfounded.

His pride, his invariably successful Mountain God Fist, was actually shattered head-on by Chen Yu!

Boom!

A swath of black-green sword light cleaved down, striking the Hill Giant, leaving a few inches deep wound.

The Hill Giant's body swayed slightly, retreating half a step.

Then, Chen Yu launched a series of attacks!

At this moment, the Hill Giant had completely lost the will to fight.

He thought Chen Yu was a descendant of the Blood-sucking Clan and already harbored a certain fear in his heart. Moreover, since Chen Yu had just shattered his strongest blow head-on, he felt even more that Chen Yu was mysteriously powerful and irresistible.

"I must report this matter to the other people of the Stone Race!"

After enduring another sword strike from Chen Yu, the Hill Giant turned and leaped away.

The Hill Giant, known for its bravery and toughness, was now fleeing!

Chen Yu naturally wouldn't let the Hill Giant escape easily, as it was worth fifty Slaughter Points.

However, the Hill Giant was enormous and had astonishing defensive power. Even for Chen Yu, it wasn't easy to kill it swiftly.

Luckily, Chen Yu's speed was superior to that of the Hill Giant, so he wasn't worried about his foe getting away.

The two of them, one chasing and the other fleeing, continued for half an hour.

During this time, Chen Yu never stopped attacking the Hill Giant.

"Am I going to die? Curse this descendant of the Blood-sucking Clan!"

The Hill Giant roared with rage and unwillingness.

At this moment, its body was full of pits and dents, having shrunk to half its original size.

Thump!

After taking another sword strike from behind, the Hill Giant fell to one knee, its arms supporting its body.

Boom!

Chen Yu descended from the sky, his sword striking down on the neck of the Hill Giant, severing its massive stone head.

But the Hill Giant did not die from this, and continued to struggle.

The life force of the Stone Race was tenacious, and without clear vital points, even beheading them didn't result in immediate death.

Chen Yu immediately struck several more times before he finally killed it.

Afterward, he extracted the Hill Giant's crystal heart.

By this point, Chen Yu had acquired one hundred and forty Slaughter Points, passing the second assessment. However, there was still some distance to the requirement of five hundred Slaughter Points to become an Inner Valley Disciple.

"Right, I wonder if those people had killed any Stone Race beings before."

Chen Yu immediately took out several storage bags, all of which belonged to the five deceased individuals.

The black-skinned man, the woman in white, and the other three people's storage bags contained a total of three crystal hearts; one was from a Peak of Middle Stage Guiyuan Realm being, and two were from the Late Guiyuan Realm. The three hearts were worth a total of twenty-two Slaughter Points.

The crystal hearts in the storage bags of the man in the gray robe and You Yuli together were worth fifty-four Slaughter Points.

"With this, I now have two hundred and sixteen Slaughter Points."

Chen Yu couldn't help but smile.

At this rate, it was quite astonishing—as long as nothing unexpected occurred, reaching five hundred Slaughter Points wouldn't be a problem.

After sorting through the spoils, Chen Yu prepared to continue his search for prey.

However, it was hard for Chen Yu to detect the Stone Race while they were sleeping.

"Right, the Hill Giant seemed to be returning to some place just now; there must be many other Stone Race beings there."

Chen Yu suddenly remembered something.

But now that the Hill Giant was dead, with no one to lead the way, he had to explore on his own.

After flying a short distance, Chen Yu did not find any Stone Race, but he did come across humans.

Underneath one hillside, more than twenty human prodigies were gathered, including members of the Cui Clan and the You Clan.

Chen Yu did not approach rashly because, with Yan Hanshan around, many clans had their eyes on him.

Moreover, with members of the You Clan and Cui Clan present, if Chen Yu were to run over directly, he might be attacked by those twenty-plus prodigies!

"So many people gathered here must have a reason for it."

Chen Yu wanted even more to understand this.

The You Clan and Cui Clan had conflicts, but now their members were coexisting without starting a war—it was indeed strange.

However, Chen Yu couldn't just walk up and ask.

After thinking it over, Chen Yu thought of a plan.

He quickly left the hillside and after traveling a dozen miles or so, he used You Yuli's Token to contact the nearby members of the You Clan.

...

Amidst the hillside, two members of the You Clan suddenly received a message.

"There are other members of the You Clan nearby."

The two exchanged glances.

"Big brother Cui Ming, it seems that more people from the You Clan have come."

A woman reported the situation of the You Clan people in a low voice.

"As long as it's not You Lie, what's there to fear?"

Cui Ming stroked his forehead hair, exuding confidence as he spoke.

"Brother, where are you? Hurry over here, we have important matters to discuss!"

A black-clad man from the You Clan immediately sent out this message.

Of the twenty-two prodigies here, the You Clan only had two members, but the Cui Clan had three, including the Cui Clan genius Cui Ming.

Cui Ming's strength was only second to Cui Yan'er and was even more formidable than You Yuli of the You Clan.

The two of them felt considerable pressure being here, so when they heard that more of the You Clan were nearby, they were somewhat impatient.

But Chen Yu certainly couldn't come over, so he began to inquire what was happening and why there was such urgency.

Finally, the man in the black robe communicated: "We have found a Stone Race force here, with many Stone Race beings inside, and there might even be 'Earth Origin Crystals' hidden!"

"Earth Origin Crystals?"

On the other side, Chen Yu's eyes suddenly lit up.

This thing was a treasure that could assist Cultivators in breaking through to the Sky Sea Realm!

If that was the case, Chen Yu definitely couldn't miss out!
