cheng didn't have the time or energy to care about such things. She confirmed that Luo Ping'er indeed possessed Lu Xiaottian's aura, and she couldn't be wrong. Xiang Qingcheng had no heart for jealous...Lu Xia Tian's demonized projection came for this Waterfire Demon Emperor Stone. Taking this opportunity to expose its whereabouts, as the water and fire-colored mantis shadows surged forward, the demonized clone suddenly flickered and disappeared into the narrow blade shadow.
The flying knife sliced through the void, its intent icy and sharp, shattering the air. Two mantis phantoms, one red and one blue, lunged but missed as the blade streaked past them at astonishing speed.
The Waterfire Praying Mantis King didn't expect the other party to still have some strength left. When he was about to use his last resort, the opponent suddenly launched an attack. If the opponent had used this kind of attack from the beginning, he might not have lasted until now.
"Could it be that the opponent has come for the Waterfire Demon Emperor Stone" A thought flashed through Shuihuo Mantis King's mind. The seemingly ordinary blade shadow in mid-air was already charging straight towards him, leaving no room to dodge. The opponent's blade speed had surpassed his own evasion capability. At this moment, Shuihuo Mantis King could only resort to another tactic and raise his arms to block.
There was no earth-shattering clash as expected, not even the Shuihuo Mantis King could feel the weight of the opponent's blade slicing through its arms. Yet, in this way, a chilling intent from the sword pierced through like a needle on paper, creating a tiny hole. The demonic aura from the blade seeped in through this small opening. At first, the Shuihuo Mantis King didn't feel much difference, and it couldn't inflict significant damage to his body.
Just as the Shuihuo Mantang King was about to retaliate against the demonized clone, he found that the demonic energy within his body suddenly became unstable.
The Water Fire Praying Mantis King's complexion changed drastically. This was far more serious than him being injured.
In the void, the long and domineering flying knife didn't hesitate for a moment, slashing down again. By the time Shuihuo Mantang King could react, it was too late. The imbalance of water and fire power within him made his movements no longer as swift and effective as before. At this moment, even a slight hesitation was enough to cost him his life.
"Stop, stop! I am willing to surrender to the Demon Venerable and obey all of your commands from now on!" The Shuihuo Manwang was finally panicked and hurriedly begged for mercy.

Despite the pleas of Shuang Shui Mantis King, the blade never wavered. Taking advantage of its weakened state, a flying knife shattered its forearms while a flash of steel suddenly appeared, circling around the king's neck before severing its head. The blade disappeared into its body.
Behind them, the two blue and red mantis phantoms continued to pounce, but relying solely on these two phantoms was insufficient to pose a significant threat.
The flying knives in the void split into two sword shadows directly, with a loud bang, they repelled the opponent. At the same time, a blade of light shot out, covering the corpse of the Waterfire Mantis King floating in the void. Inside, sure enough, a mantis-shaped primordial spirit interwoven with red and blue flew out, being directly enveloped by the swarm of sword beams. Afterwards, the phantom of the demonized clone appeared inside the flying knife, swallowing the mantis-shaped primordial spirit in one gulp.
Then the shape of the transformed avatar twisted, sometimes becoming a praying mantis and sometimes taking on the form of Lu Xiaoteng. The two mantis phantoms seemed to be stunned upon seeing the transformed avatar swallow the Waterfire Mantis King's primordial spirit. They lost the command of the Waterfire Mantis King's primordial spirit for a moment. Moreover, since the transformed avatar already possessed some of the Waterfire Mantis King's aura, they didn't know whether to continue attacking it.
At this time, the Water Silk Worm demon led a squad of demon soldiers over. The transformed figure had stabilized, and in the void floated the corpse of the Water Fire Mantis King. The Shui Ni demon was startled, then immediately bowed to the transformed figure and said, "Congratulations, Your Lordship, on slaying such a fierce enemy!"
"After all, it's no match for the real body's way of devouring demonic souls." At this time, the demonized avatar was barely suppressing the strange fluctuations in its aura.

Hearing this, Shui Ni Yao felt a chill run down her spine. To devour demon souls was a taboo practice that went against the natural order. It was unimaginable that Ji Yun, the Great Demon Lord, would cultivate such a sinister art. Wouldn't he be afraid of inciting other demons to attack him If it wasn't for Ji Yun's incredible power and the guidance he offered his subordinates, Shui Ni Yao suspected she wouldn't have been able to endure it for long.
“Rest assured, I'm only interested in demon souls that are useful to me. Today’s events must not be spread.” The demonic avatar smiled. If it weren't for the fact that this Waterfire Mantis King had considerable strength and was close to the Waterfire Demon Emperor Stone beneath the lake, a change would have occurred sooner or later, and the demonic avatar wouldn't have felt the need to rush into devouring it now. But even though the demonic avatar understood the way the main body devoured demon souls, when it came to actually performing the technique, he realized how difficult it truly was.
After finishing his speech about the demonic avatar and Guan's decapitation of the Waterfire Mantis King, the figure vanished in a flash and shot towards the distant battlefield. “The Waterfire Mantis King is dead, those who surrender will live, those who defy will die!” The demonic avatar’s voice boomed like thunder, shaking the air. It was answered by his demonic army, causing the Waterfire Mantis King's mantis army to lose their morale and collapse in disarray.
“Go clean up the mess, this place will be my second nest from now on. After dealing with the affairs here, send a group back to report. For now, I'll stay in this land of fire and water for a while to cultivate.”
Immediately, the demonized avatar flung its hand, hurling the water and fire mantis king's head toward the opponent.
"Yes, my lord!" Shuini Yao took the head of the Praying Mantis King and immediately obeyed.
The demonic doppelganger nodded, and with a flash of its form, it shot towards the lake. Before the water-snake demon could react, a cloud-killing demon army hidden within the thick clouds arrived, encircling the lake on all sides.
The Water Lion demon had a guess about the purpose of the phantom clone's actions, but she was unable to check it personally at this time. This Cloud-Slaying Demon Spirit army was the first batch of troops captured by the demonized clone. Unless the command authority of the war was temporarily given to the Water Lion demon, no one else could mobilize them besides the orders of the demonized clone.
The demonic avatar plunged straight into the lake, using the aura of the Water and Fire Mantis King to break the seal within. In a lavishly decorated cave, a rough-looking stone slab, interwoven with blue and red, stood out starkly amidst the refined surroundings.
“What a piece of Shuihuo Yaodi Stone!” The transformed avatar smiled, but didn't immediately reach for the Shuihuo Yaodi Stone. Instead, he sat down directly beside it.
Having just devoured the soul of the Water-Fire Mantis King, the transformed avatar was far from fully refining it. Once this soul was completely refined, if his body could reach the level of the Water-Fire Mantis King, his reliance on the Extreme Cloud Demon Cave would be greatly reduced. After finally escaping the constraints of the main body, the transformed avatar naturally didn't want to be bound again within that small circle of the Extreme Cloud Demon Cave.
At this moment, Lu Xiaottian's main body was still unaware that his demonized avatar had stirred up a bloody storm near the Yulong Demon Cave. However, at this time, the exotic beast Ya ZI separated from his body in the South China Sea set off a wave of carnage. Hundreds of thousands of miles away, monsters had scattered to the nearby islands.
