The Volcano Summit of the third layer of the Abyss.

Bai Yan stood at the crater, inhaling the sulfur and flame in the air.

His divine thought had long detected the Abyss Flame Dragon merrily swimming in the lava, but the Abyss Flame Dragon had not noticed him.

"It's you. Devour you and I should be able to upgrade."

A gleam flashed in Bai Yan's eyes, and the Demon Longsword appeared in his hand in an instant.

Killing intent surged to the sky, alarming the Abyss Flame Dragon playing in the magma.

"Little ant, you startled me!"

The Abyss Flame Dragon's basketball-sized red eyes instantly found Bai Yan, spewing Dragon Breath as it scolded him.

In its eyes, Bai Yan was just a level six demon, something a middle-level demon could easily crush.

But if it knew this was the same Bai Yan who had killed the Father God and trampled the Divine Kingdom, it might not think that way.

Due to dwelling in the Abyss for too long, the Abyss Flame Dragon had long ignored the affairs outside.

However, Bai Yan was indeed hesitant to kill the Abyss Flame Dragon directly, as it could still be a useful subordinate once subdued.

Yet, the Abyss Flame Dragon's taunting broke the last bit of hesitation in Bai Yan's heart.

"Let's see who the real ant is."

Bai Yan spoke softly, a cold smile appearing on his face.

As soon as he spoke, the Demon Longsword in Bai Yan's hand trembled slightly, seemingly eagerly anticipating the moment of bloodshed.

"No way, this Abyss Flame Dragon is my food. You'll have to wait a bit longer."

Bai Yan sensed the emotional fluctuations transmitted from the Demon Longsword and gently tightened his grip on the sword hilt, soothing it.

"Roar! How dare a mere level six demon make such wild statements! Taste the Dragon Breath of the Abyss Flame Dragon clan!!"

The Abyss Flame Dragon's red eyes exuded infinite anger. Being regarded as food by Bai Yan was a disgrace to the Abyss Flame Dragon clan.

The voice of the Abyss Flame Dragon echoed within the third layer of the Abyss, resounding like thunder, while an endless killing intent surged from its body.

"Roar!"

The Abyss Flame Dragon's Dragon Breath erupted, surging towards Bai Yan.

This Dragon Breath, unlike Alec's corrosive kind, possessed extreme high temperatures capable of melting the armor and skin of most level nine demons!

But Bai Yan did not evade. At the moment the Abyss Flame Dragon spewed its Dragon Breath, Bai Yan confidently determined that it would not harm him.

After absorbing so many gods in the Divine Kingdom, their nourishment had greatly enhanced Bai Yan's power, making his physical body incomparable to before.

Moreover, as the God of Demon, all demonic attacks would be considerably reduced in effect when directed at Bai Yan.

Just like how Angel attacks would not harm the Father God, it's the same principle.

Thus, Bai Yan merely stood there, letting the Abyss Flame Dragon's Dragon Breath envelop him without even blinking an eye.

"Ant! Be destroyed under Ake's Dragon Breath! Burn! Shatter! Roar!"

The Abyss Flame Dragon obviously did not know Bai Yan's identity or his strength.

Seeing Bai Yan enveloped by its Dragon Breath, it rejoiced immediately.

For it had never seen a level six demon emerge from its Dragon Breath.

And now it thought, the Dragon Breath might roast Bai Yan to a crisp again, ruining the taste.

But Bai Yan disappointed it.

"Tell me, who's the ant?"

Bai Yan's voice pierced through the roaring Dragon Breath, reaching the Abyss Flame Dragon's ears, cold yet despair-inducing.

"This... how is this possible..."

"Aren't you a level six demon? How could a mere level six demon withstand my Dragon Breath?!"

"This is impossible!!!"

The Abyss Flame Dragon's eyes grew larger than basketballs, trying to make out Bai Yan's figure.

But in the next moment, it realized, opening its gaping maw, spewing a torrent of searing Dragon Breath once more.

This Dragon Breath was its all-out effort, even scorching its throat painfully.

This time, the Dragon Breath descended like celestial flames, even turning the hardened lava in the crater back into flowing magma.

But it was all in vain.

Bai Yan's feet left the ground, calmly hovering within the Dragon Breath, watching the Abyss Flame Dragon continue its futile attacks.

"Now it's my turn."

Bai Yan's voice, calmly terrifying, struck fear in the Abyss Flame Dragon. Even its mightiest attack could not harm the man before it.

So it was afraid.

It wanted to escape but couldn't.

Bai Yan gracefully swung his Demon Longsword, and a crescent-shaped Sword Qi shot from it, appearing before the Abyss Flame Dragon at a speed it couldn't react to.

In an instant, the crescent-shaped Sword Qi exploded, transforming into countless Sword Qi, boring into the Abyss Flame Dragon's head.

"Boom!"

With a thunderous bang, the Abyss Flame Dragon's proud dragon horns were severed, its hard dragon scales scattered, and its entire head was left a bloody mess.

Fortunately, at the last moment, it instinctively dodged, preventing the full brunt of the Sword Qi from hitting its skull.

But what did it matter, that was just Bai Yan's simplest, most ordinary attack. Even if it blocked that, Bai Yan still had more in store.

In the next instant, Bai Yan vanished from his spot, the Demon Longsword in his hand thrust fiercely towards the Abyss Flame Dragon's eyes.

"Sizzle!"

Like a mud cow into the sea, the Demon Longsword in Bai Yan's hand pierced directly into the Abyss Flame Dragon's eye, exploding Sword Qi tearing off its entire skullcap.

Purple and white burst forth entirely, the devilishly hot and sulfuric purple blood making excitement flash in Bai Yan's eyes.

"Little lizard, now it seems you're more like the ant."

The Abyss Flame Dragon was as dead as could be, Bai Yan's lips curled into a strange, cold smile, and with a sudden flick of his sword hand, the Abyss Flame Dragon's corpse was flung beyond the volcano.

Fortunately, since Bai Yan became the God of Demon, he no longer needed to devour demons through feeding; otherwise, eating such a large Abyss Flame Dragon would take him ages.

Placing his hand on the Abyss Flame Dragon's wound, Bai Yan activated his ability, continuously devouring the Abyss Flame Dragon's body, converting it into demonic energy within him.

In barely a breath's time, the giant Abyss Flame Dragon, weighing several tons, vanished from the Abyss, becoming a stepping stone on Bai Yan's evolution path.

After devouring the Abyss Flame Dragon, Bai Yan opened his system panel. Seeing the large "evolvable" words next to his evolution points, a contented smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
