Chapter 448: The Heavenly Dao's Sorrow, That One Drop of Tear
Su Xing felt a surge in his heart upon hearing these words.
Indeed, the test has arrived!
For a powerful figure like the Heavenly Demon General, the only thing that can earn respect is strength!
As long as Su Xing possesses enough strength to earn the respect of the Heavenly Demon General, there will naturally be opportunities to be alone later.
At that time, it won't be difficult for Su Xing to ask questions clearly!
And now, the Heavenly Demon General's test for Su Xing has arrived!
Killing a Golden Immortal Peak Shadow Deity is not easy.
But for Su Xing, who ranks first on the Earth List... it's not difficult!
Thus...
Su Xing merely nodded slightly and said, "In that case, I would gladly do it!"
After speaking, Su Xing stretched out his hand to tear open a space passage and disappeared from this stronghold.
The Heavenly Demon General looked thoughtfully at the space passage where Su Xing had left.
In Shi San's eyes, a gleam flashed as he mused, "Impressive skills! With just this move, at least the Dao of Space has entered the Sixth Realm!"
Yet, Shi San was evidently somewhat worried about Su Xing going alone to kill the Shadow Deity.
He looked toward the Heavenly Demon General and whispered, "Should I go too... to prevent any accidents?"
The Heavenly Demon General nodded slightly, sparingly said:
"First on the Earth List... surely has more than just this bit of strength!"
Shi San listened and looked toward the direction where Su Xing had departed, thoughtfully.
...
A month later, in the Heavenly Demon Realm.
A Void passage suddenly appeared in the stronghold.
The corpse of a Shadow Deity over one meter tall, like a lump of rotten flesh, was casually thrown over by Su Xing.
Su Xing then stepped out, rudely taking a jar of wine from Shi San's hand, and after taking a large sip, finally said:
"Sorry... this guy was quite good at hiding, took a little time!"
Seeing Su Xing return, the powerful figures of the Heavenly Demon Prison were shocked once again.
"This... how long has it been, back already?"
A Golden Immortal Peak expert, staring at the corpse of the Shadow Deity on the ground, couldn't help but swallow.
"The younger generation is truly fearsome! Such strength... far surpasses ours!"
"Wow... I think, with this guy's strength, given enough time... his merits could even rank above the Heavenly Five!"
A group of experts above the Golden Immortal discussed fervently, their eyes filled with admiration.
To have killed a Level Two Peak Shadow Deity in just a month, such strength, even in the Heavenly Demon Prison, could be counted on two hands!
A Level Two Peak Shadow Deity is equivalent to a Golden Immortal Peak cultivator!
But Shadow Deities excel at hiding and escape speed... unless you firmly surpass them in strength, they are incredibly difficult to kill!
Furthermore, battles at this level often span three to five years or more.
For Su Xing to kill this Shadow Deity within a month is absolutely terrifying!
Sure enough, all the cultivators present simultaneously shifted their gaze to the Heavenly Demon General at the center of the crowd upon Su Xing's return.
The Heavenly Demon General narrowed his eyes, took a large gulp of wine, and his face also showed a flash of admiration.
After pondering for a moment, he took out a jar of wine and tossed it to Su Xing.
Su Xing caught it, drank heartily, and couldn't help but exclaim:
"Great wine! This wine actually makes the immortal power within me ignite... like Jade Dew Liquor!"
After just a few sips, Su Xing felt slightly drunk, yet his mental state was exceptionally sharp.
Even the mana and mental energy exhausted from a month of battling were fully restored!
Beside him, Shi San couldn't help but widen his eyes, with a hint of jealousy in his tone:
"Boss! You're too biased!"
"This is also million-year-old Cloud-Burning Immortal Brew! Made from Immortal Liquid... there's no more than a hundred jars in the whole Cultivation World..."
"I asked you previously to spare me a mouthful, but you didn't give me a drop!"
Saying this, Shi San swallowed.
The other cultivators around, seeing the jar in Su Xing's hand, were also somewhat envious.
For these Body Refinement cultivators, besides killing Foreign Races, the only beloved pursuits are drinking heartily and enjoying meat!
After all, in such dangerous areas, one never knows when their head may separate from their body...
Su Xing smiled slightly at this and without hesitation said boldly:
"I'm not great with alcohol... Such a fine wine can't be enjoyed alone; let's all drink together, seniors!"
With that, Su Xing divided the wine among everyone.
One jar of wine seemed like a lot, but in reality, each person present only got about half a bowl.
Yet even this half-bowl of wine made these individuals, who could be lords outside, handle it carefully, and some were even saving the rest for later.
Seeing Su Xing's actions, a flash of appreciation crossed the Heavenly Demon General's face.
Then the Heavenly Demon General took out another jar of Cloud-Burning Immortal Brew and declared:
"Su Ye is joining our core battlefield... henceforth we have another life and death brother to entrust our lives!"
"Such a joyous event, let us not go home until drunk!"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding experts excitedly supported, faces flushed:
"Boss is mighty!"
"Welcome brother Su Ye to join us..."
Watching this scene, Su Xing felt touched, aware that the Heavenly Demon General had fully accepted him.
At this feast, Su Xing drank and ate a lot of flesh essence.
He completely felt the boldness and masculine camaraderie of these Body Refinement cultivators!
After rounds of drinking, seeing these cultivators each setting out on tasks or beginning cultivation.
Su Xing finally prepared to launch his plans.
"Heavenly Demon General senior..." Su Xing had just started when the Heavenly Demon General waved his hand and interrupted: "Call me boss like the others!"
Su Xing nodded slightly upon hearing and changed his wording: "Boss... I have some personal matters I'd like to discuss."
