Global Demon King: Starting as the Abyssal Dragon

Chapter 330: Returning from Behemoth Highlands

"This... how is this possible!" Han Kexin, also a Demon King, couldn\'t imagine someone achieving such an inconceivable feat. Nancilia, Shui Lan, and Ophelia were all left in a state of shock, this moment destined to be unforgettable for them.

Shui Lan said, "I didn\'t sense even a trace of magical energy, nor any elemental power. This means that what His Majesty the Demon King just performed wasn\'t magic!"

If it wasn\'t magic, then it was a physical attack. That made it even more inexplicable why it was so devastating. This single attack had almost completely shattered the enemy\'s morale and combat capability.

"Run!"

"We can\'t defeat him!"

The remaining behemoths and orcs, witnessing the situation, were utterly demoralized and quickly lost the will to fight, leading to a rapid and complete collapse of their forces.

Han Kexin approached Zhang Nu and asked, "Should we pursue them?"

Zhang Nu shook his head and replied, "Don\'t pursue a cornered enemy, especially since this isn\'t our territory."

As he spoke, the murderous aura around Zhang Nu began to subside quickly. The effect of the Immortal Physique was also fading. Even for Zhang Nu, this extreme burst state could only be maintained for about a minute; it was impossible to sustain such a high level of power for long.

After Zhang Nu returned to his normal state, his HP was down to just one point. Under normal circumstances, this would have quickly rendered him weak, but the Rebirth from Within the Flames skill activated immediately. Not only did Zhang Nu recover, but he also returned to full health. In other words, if the enemy persisted, Zhang Nu could unleash another round of attacks. Utilizing the Rebirth from Within the Flames and the Eye of Regeneration, he could repeat this process two, three, or even four times, making him virtually unbeatable.

The battlefield was a mess. Han Kexin released soul threads around the bodies of the Behemoth Kings, drawing in their lingering souls. For Han Kexin, these souls were very useful. Among her Level 5 talents was one called Soul Shepherding, which allowed her to turn captured souls into her soul slaves. Thus, high-quality souls held great value for Han Kexin.

Among the targets Zhang Nu had eliminated were six formidable Behemoth Kings. Even among other Level 6 monarch units, these were among the elite. If Han Kexin could turn them into soul slaves, her power would increase significantly.

Zhang Nu didn\'t linger. He and his subordinates used the teleportation stone to return directly to the Chaos Forest from the Behemoth Highlands.

......

About half a day later, the Snow Elf Demon King Tang Xuemei arrived in the area and was stunned by the remnants of the battle. At that moment, her scouts returned with news.

"My lord, we\'ve confirmed the information. Behemoth Chieftain Amit and his six Behemoth Kings... all have been killed!"

Hearing this, Tang Xuemei was incredulous. She widened her eyes. "Amit is dead? He really just died like that? How is it possible for someone so powerful to be killed?"

Even if the one they were up against was the No. 1 Demon King, this was still Amit\'s territory. If Amit had engaged in a prolonged battle of wits and strength with Zhang Nu and eventually died, Tang Xuemei might have been able to accept it. But from the moment Zhang Nu attacked to the time he left, it was less than half a day. Such a highly ranked, renowned Hero with special abilities and unfathomable strength had perished so quickly, which seemed very abrupt. Moreover, six Behemoth Kings, Amit\'s top subordinates, and at least a thousand prominent figures of the highlands had also fallen in this place.

Tang Xuemei, shocked by the events, decided to keep this secret. The matter was so astonishing that, on one hand, no one would likely believe her, and on the other hand, it could damage her standing in Zhang Nu\'s eyes. Who knows, with this connection with the No. 1 Demon King, she might soar to great heights in the future!

However, Tang Xuemei clearly underestimated the situation. Some things couldn\'t be contained just by keeping silent. During Zhang Nu\'s sweep of the behemoths and the Heroes\' groups, at least tens of thousands of the Savage Beast Empire\'s top elites and experts were present. Many of them had escaped. These people had eyes and mouths and would surely spread the news, embellishing it as they did. Moreover, the Behemoth Highlands were home to hundreds or even thousands of Demon Kings and tens of thousands of Heroes. Such a significant event was impossible to keep under wraps.

That evening, when Tang Xuemei opened the Demon King channel, she was astonished to find that the channel was already buzzing with discussions about this very topic.

"Shocking!"

"Eyewitnesses confirmed!"

"The No.1 Demon King, Zhang Nu, has made a move!"

"Hero Amit, ranked in the top thirty or forty, was annihilated by Zhang Nu in just a few minutes, without any chance to fight back."

"Not only that, but Zhang Nu also single-handedly faced the strongest troops of the Behemoth Highlands and killed tens of thousands of behemoths and high-level orcs with just one finger."

"Nonsense!"

"How is that possible? Are you telling stories here?"

"Zhang Nu is a legend!"

"The rise of the Demon Kings is just around the corner!"

Various rumors about Zhang Nu were spreading and fermenting in the chat channels. With many eyewitnesses and numerous Demon Kings like Tang Xuemei drawn to the scene to investigate, the credibility was quite high. This caused a huge sensation and various factions had learned of this news!

As the protagonist of the events, Zhang Nu naturally saw the various chat channels buzzing about him, making him a hot topic once again. However, this didn\'t matter much to him. Zhang Nu never cared about others\' opinions.

The urgent task at hand was to find the last Evil God Eye. Since there were only eight Evil God fragments in total, acquiring the final one would allow him to fully consolidate the power of the Eight-Eyed Evil God.

This step was crucial for Zhang Nu.

Of course, while enhancing his personal strength, Zhang Nu did not forget to build his territory and develop his subordinates. Among the loot this time, there was one exceptionally precious item. This item was none other than the legend crystal. Its use had relatively stringent prerequisites, as it could only evolve a being from the mythic to the legendary level.

Without much thought, Zhang Nu decided to use this crystal on his top subordinate, the Succubus Queen, Han Kexin. This way, Han Kexin would become a Level 6 legendary being like himself. Her personal abilities, permanent charm, and soul shepherding were all extremely powerful and useful.

As her strength increased, all her talents would become more refined and potent. Zhang Nu was on the verge of reaching Level 7, and as the second-in-command of Darkness City, Han Kexin shouldn\'t lag too far behind."
