As one of the ancient demon branches of the Warcraft Star, the Light and Dark Demon Race once ruled a vast territory of the Warcraft Star. The clan boasted a demon god of the Great Heavenly God level, making it one of the top demon branches.

Such an ancient and powerful demon race naturally possessed a profound history and culture, including a military presence. The Light and Dark Demon Clan possessed millions of troops and maintained a strict hierarchy. Among the hundreds of legions, there were three special legions at the top: a legion composed of the Light Demon Clan, a legion composed of the Dark Demon Clan, and a legion composed of the Light Demon Clan, the Dark Demon Clan, and two mixed-race races.

Among these, the Dark Demon Clan's legion was called the Dark Demon Cave. Every dark demon who joined the Dark Demon Cave was an elite chosen from among the elite forces. The lowest cultivation level was a sixth-rank Demon Venerable, and its captain was at least a seventh-rank Demon Emperor.

In the Dark Demon Cave Legion, a typical formation consists of five dark demons forming a squad, five squads forming a small corps, five small corps forming a large corps, five large corps forming a military department, five military departments forming a king leader, five king leaders forming a legion, and the legion commanders directly obey the war council of the light and dark demon tribes.

What Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi encountered at this time was a small corps of the Dark Demon Cave with a high configuration. The reason it was called a small corps with a high configuration was simple: this small corps had seven squads, totaling thirty-five elite soldiers of the Dark Demon Clan.

Within this small corps with a high configuration, there were a total of seven seventh-level demon emperors, two eighth-level demon emperors, and twenty-six sixth-level demon venerables, all of whom were quite powerful. They ran rampant in this area for a while, leaving many independent demon hunter teams outside with no access to them.

It's worth noting that the demons of the elite squad are different from ordinary solo demons. They not only possess a very high level of cooperation, but also possess standard magic circles and spells that can explode with powerful power. They obey the commands of specific demons and are unafraid of death when they act. Often, a small team can contend with a beginner eighth-level Ming Sheng. A small, highly-configured squad like this can fight with a ninth-level powerhouse of the Guangming Clan and remain undefeated.

At this moment, on a high mountain peak ten kilometers south of the Dark World, a twenty-person Light Clan squad was burning a bonfire near a cave. Two Light Clan members, clad in tattered leather armor, lay on the edge of the cliff, gazing at the campsite where the small, highly-configured squad of the Dark Demon Clan was camped from afar.

Their eyes were shining, clearly using holy magic, so their gazes could reach ten kilometers away. However, they couldn't see through the darkness; they could only monitor the entry and exit of the dark demons.

Suddenly, one of the Guangming Clan members let out a suspicious sound. Beside him, the other Light Clan members were also stunned. They turned to look at each other, and they all saw the shock in each other's eyes.

They quickly turned their heads and looked carefully again. There would be no mistake this time.

They saw a man and a woman suddenly appear outside the darkness, then transform into two streams of light and rush towards the darkness, only to be swallowed by it in the blink of an eye.

"What's the situation?"

"Who are they?"

"That man is human, right? I didn't see the woman clearly, but it seems like a mixed-race child. Aren't they afraid of death?"

"Hey, a human man, a mixed-race woman? Why is this combination so familiar?"

The two Guangming clan members frowned and thought. Suddenly, one of the Guangming clan members excitedly patted the ground in front of him, his voice slightly changing. "Do you still remember Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi?"

"The person in charge of the Holy Light Pearl, how could I not remember..." The other Guangming clan member was just about to mock, but was suddenly shocked, and then said in disbelief, "Those two people just now, could they be Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi? How did they end up here?"

"Where have they been for over three years?"

"I heard that Nie Lan Xun could already cast a ninth-grade holy technique more than three years ago, isn't she even more powerful now?"

"This is an opportunity!"

The two members of the Guangming clan quickly stood up, rushed back to the nearby campfire, and called out to their companions who were eating and resting, "Quick! Quick! The opportunity to exterminate this small Dark Demon Clan corps has arrived. It seems we just saw Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi!"

"Who?"

"Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi?"

"Are those two still alive? Are they still on Paradise Island? They've both rushed to the dark zone."

"If I remember correctly, Nie Lanxi had ninth-grade strength more than three years ago, right?"

"Let's go, let's help! This time, perhaps we can truly exterminate this small Dark Demon corps! These Light Races are eagerly rushing towards the dark zone."

At the same time, Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi had already encountered this small group of Dark Demons.

In the dark zone.

Thirty-five dark demons were lying, standing, or sitting, some communicating, some sleeping, and some cultivating. But the moment they saw Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi, they were all stunned.

What was going on? Humans? A hybrid of the human race and the light race? Were their brains twisted? How dare they enter the dark zone so openly! Didn't they know that there was no divine power in the dark zone, and the dark demons could completely suppress the light race? Without divine power, they couldn't even construct sacred arts, and even sacred patterns would be severely affected.

But these two still did this, either foolishly or independently. If it was the former, they had to be careful.

After the dark demons discovered Ji Jiayu and the others, they first fell into a state of astonishment. After reacting, they immediately launched an attack.

This process actually only took a second, but it was only a second before it was too late. Ji Jiayu's feet simultaneously emitted golden light, and in the next second, he appeared in front of the seventh-level dark demon. Ji Jiayu's right palm also shone with golden light, and with a thunderous boom, chains of thunder spread out like a spiderweb, instantly surrounding the seventh-level dark demon, giving it no chance to react.

The flashing light pattern and the thunder explosion pattern, these two sacred patterns depicted on the texture of the sacred skin and sacred bones, did not require external divine power to activate upon their first use, and could rely on their own divine power.

Furthermore, after Ji Jiayu was trained by the enlightened spirit tiger, the power of these two seventh-level sacred patterns was enhanced, and the consumption of divine power was also reduced. Coupled with the blessing of Ji Jiayu's peak sixth-level Ming Zun realm, these two sacred patterns had broken through their limits, and their power was so immense that it could be described as terrifying.

Seeing the seventh-level demon emperor killed in an instant, all the dark demons present were shocked. The young man before them was simply too terrifying, wasn't he?

This group of dark demons had come to Sacred Chenghai for many years, knowing that the human race's growth cycle was extremely long. A ten- or twenty-year-old human generally only had three or four cultivation levels, while a heavenly one had four or five. But the human youth in front of him had just killed a seventh-order dark demon in a matter of seconds, so he must have the strength of an eighth-order?

How was this possible? Unless...
