Chapter 333: The Prefecture Master Self-Destructs, Rich Rewards

Dozens of black spears shot into the dimensional vortex. The Ice Demon Prefecture Master’s shrill cries could be heard coming from within the thick ice wall at once.

The ice wall dispersed with a boom right after that. Netherworld Divine Fire wrapped around the Ice Demon Prefecture Master’s abdomen and began to spread like wildfire to other parts of its body.

“Damn!”

Blood drained from the Ice Demon Prefecture Master’s face. Chilly air reverberated around it, instantly shaking off a greater half of the flames at its abdomen. Nevertheless, quite a bit of Netherworld Divine Fire flames continued to stick to it like glue.

“Don’t struggle in vain anymore, Ice Demon Prefecture Master. Your fate has already been destined!”

A calm smile graced Meng Lei’s features as an overwhelming number of black spears shot toward it simultaneously.

Stab, stab, stab!

The Ice Demon Prefecture Master was unable to block the attack this time. The black spears bombarded it and turned into fierce, raging flames that began to blaze away furiously.

Boom!

The Ice Demon Prefecture Master instantly turned into a demon on fire. It tried desperately to spur the demonic aura inside it so that it could shake off the Netherworld Divine Fire and drive the flames away, but... It was of no use.

Within the short span of a few breaths, the fire, which was becoming increasingly bigger and fiercer, had completely swallowed it up.

The Ice Demon Prefecture Master let out a shrill cry that sounded as if the wailing of vengeful spirits from hell. All the demons that heard it were incredibly alarmed and frightened and their hair couldn’t help but stand on end.

“Lord Prefecture Master has... lost?”

The 10,000,000 Ice Demon Prefecture Guards were trembling all over. They couldn’t believe the scene taking place before their eyes.

The grand Ice Demon Prefecture’s most powerful Lord Prefecture Master that was unbeatable in their eyes had... lost?

“Lord Prefecture Master has actually lost to him! This is truly unbelievable!”

The Demon Gods and Great Demon Gods watching the battle also had a complex look in their eyes and a look of disbelief on their faces.

The Ice Demon Prefecture Master had sat firmly on the Prefecture Master throne for as long as 40,000 years. It had encountered innumerable challengers during this period and won them all, yet it had finally been defeated today.

“Ice Demon Prefecture... is in for a huge change! From now on, the whole Ice Demon Prefecture will be his!”

“Ahhh!”

The Ice Demon Prefecture Master was still screaming. The terrifying Netherworld Divine Fire flames continued blazing away, burning its demonic body into ashes bit by bit. The pain and agony involved were self-evident. Even a mid-level Great Demon God like the Ice Demon Prefecture Master found it hard to bear!

“Congratulations, Meng Lei!”

A smiling Dodola said, “From now on, you’re the newly-appointed Prefecture Master of the Ice Demon Prefecture!”

“You, too!”

Meng Lei returned the smile. Then, his gaze swept across the Demon Gods, Great Demon Gods, and Ice Demon Prefecture Guards around them. It was time to enjoy the fruits of his victory next.

“S-spare me!”

At last, the Ice Demon Prefecture Master couldn’t take it anymore. It begged for mercy hoarsely. “L-let me off! I... I’m willing... t-to submit to you!”

“Submit?”

Meng Lei shook his head. “It’s too late now!”

“Bastard!”

Hate filled the Ice Demon Prefecture Master. It, a lofty mid-level Great Demon God, was sincerely begging for mercy and offering submission, yet Meng Lei had actually rejected it. He was too much!

“Since you refuse to give me a way out, then you can forget about having a good time, too. We’ll go down together, you bastard!”

The Ice Demon Prefecture Master bellowed hysterically. Its gigantic demonic body suddenly began to inflate and expand furiously like an inflating balloon.

“Oh no! It intends to self-destruct!”

At the sight of this, the expressions of the dozen or so Great Demon Gods watching the battle all changed, and they immediately turned tail and ran.

The 10,000,000 Ice Demon Prefecture Guards, as well as the Demon Gods watching the battle, were scared witless. All of them turned and fled into the distance, wishing they had been born with an extra pair of legs.

However, they were ultimately still a tad too slow. As a deafening boom rang out, the Ice Demon Prefecture Master’s body also exploded with a loud bang as though a hundred million hydrogen bombs were suddenly going off.

Boom!

The dimension broke apart right away, and a gigantic black hole formed from the explosion. Additionally, the black hole was also expanding at a terrifying rate. In no time, it had expanded to a size that spanned a million miles in radius.

The Ice Demon City right underneath it was out of luck.

The black hole swallowed the buildings, the demons, the streets, the forests... It swallowed everything that it could possibly swallow!

The world became void of all sounds, color, life, and vitality in this instant. All one could see within their sight was just a constantly-expanding black hole.

One couldn’t tell how long had passed before the expanding black hole finally calmed down. A few minutes later, the black hole disappeared completely, and the sky resumed its original brightness once more.

However, when the surviving Great Demon Gods saw the sight before their eyes, all of them were stunned.

A gigantic deep pit that spanned a radius of 10,000,000 miles had formed in the center of the boundless Ice Demon City. As though a crater formed by a meteor crashing into the earth, there was no sign of life or any living being inside it. All there was in there was just charred soil and rocks that had turned into glass from the high heat.

As for the many Demon Gods and the 10,000,000 Ice Demon Prefecture Guards that had been floating in the air earlier—in fact, even the countless demons on the ground—all of them had vanished!

“H-how did this happen?”

One of the Great Demon Gods had a rather dazed look in its eyes. All the Ice Demon Prefecture Guards had died while the city center had also turned into a deep pit. How many demons had exactly died just now?

How many demons had died?

Meng Lei didn’t know, either. He was very displeased—terribly so—at the moment. Since the Ice Demon Prefecture Master had self-destructed, then that meant that he hadn’t killed it with his own hands. The money that had been about to enter his bank... was gone!

Just how f*cked up was that?

“That was a mid-level Great Demon God that rivaled a mid-level higher deity! Just how much money have I lost!?”

Meng Lei felt as if his heart was bleeding. Aside from that, there was also one other thing that he was worried about—the whole Prefecture Master residence had been caught in the explosion just now. Surely the treasury in there was fine, right?

Meng Lei’s heart couldn’t help but sink as he gazed at the huge pit whose diameter spanned as wide as 10,000,000 miles. The explosion had destroyed the Prefecture Master residence. In that case, the chances of the treasury surviving the explosion...

Meng Lei griped, “Why didn’t you stop it from self-destructing just now?”

“Stop it from self-destructing? Why don’t you do it yourself if you’re that capable?”

Dodola said huffily, “Who would be able to stop a mid-level Great Demon God from self-destructing? Not me, for sure! It’s already pretty impressive that one can come out of it alive!”

Meng Lei curled his lip grumpily. Then, he quickly teleported to the center of the huge pit. There was nothing in the pit at all, not even an ant, let alone the Prefecture Master residence.

This didn’t bode well for the treasury...

Meng Lei immediately urged, “Hurry, look for the Prefecture Master residence’s treasury for me, Dodola!”

All he could do now was hope that the treasury was on other half-planes instead and not in the Prefecture Master residence itself. Otherwise, everything they had done would really have been all for naught.

“Fine!”

Dodola agreed to his request. It released its divine cognition into the surroundings and started to look for it. Meng Lei also tried searching for it.

It was just a pity that...

There was nothing here and nothing there.

There was nothing in the east and nothing in the west.

“Eh? What’s that?”

Dodola suddenly let out a soft sound of surprise. Then, it took a white crystal out from the soil with a casual wave. The crystal emanated might that filled one with trepidation.

“This aura...”

Dodola burst into laughter at once. “Meng Lei, I’ve found the Ice Demon Prefecture Master’s demonic core!”

“Its demonic core?”

A huge jolt went through Meng Lei, and he hurriedly grabbed the demonic and inspected it. True enough, he could sense the Ice Demon Prefecture Master’s divine spirit’s aura inside it. Meng Lei was overjoyed right away—the Ice Demon Prefecture Master was still alive!

“The destructive power of self-destruction may be great, but demonic cores are objects manifested from demonic power, one’s divine spirit, and the origin of laws of nature. They are firm and indestructible, so they won’t be broken by the power generated from self-destruction,” explained Dodola with a smile.

Meng Lei nodded repeatedly. Then, he released his divine cognition, sent it into the demonic core, and began to inspect it. The demonic core was undamaged. This meant that the Ice Demon Prefecture Master’s divine spirit was definitely unharmed. At best, it might have sunk into a deep sleep.

True enough, as Meng Lei inspected the demonic core, the Ice Demon Prefecture Master’s divine spirit also gradually awakened. At once, it let out a mad, furious roar full of immense hatred. “You bastard! You forced me to self-destruct and destroyed my demonic body! I’ll never let you off even if I were to fall into the depths of hell!”

“Hehe! It’s great that you’re still alive!”

Meng Lei licked his lips. Then, the power of his divine spirit gushed forth and began to furiously attack the Ice Demon Prefecture Master’s divine spirit in an attempt to thoroughly kill it.

To deities and demons, the true core of their existences were their divine spirits. As long as their divine spirit was still alive, then they would be considered alive. It was only when their divine spirit was destroyed and dissipated that they would truly be dead.

Therefore, Meng Lei wanted to kill the Ice Demon Prefecture Master once more.

“Argghhhh!”

The Ice Demon Prefecture Master roared furiously in pain and agony. However, without its demonic body, its divine spirit was as though a tree without its roots—it couldn’t withstand Meng Lei’s attacks at all. Gradually, it began to break down.

In the end...

“Ding! 1 Ice Demon God killed. 62 million Divinity Crystals gained!”

“Haha! One’s effort should always be rewarded. Now, this feels much better!”
