"Be careful!"

The sudden, fierce combined attack made the Lords’ faces change instantly, and they cried out.

They were given no chance to react.

The Big Cannon’s Deadly Sniper and Shadowless’s set of combined skills had already been unleashed, transforming into an incomparably swift force, straight toward the Fear Tree Demon.

Originally rampant in the ranks of the species troops, the Fear Tree Demon, sensing the threat of death, directly activated the Thorn Shield skill.

The next second.

A shield full of spikes appeared beside it, protecting its entire large body.

At the same time, it roared, and an unseen spiritual pressure surged from its body, targeting Shadowless and its two clones.

Instant Shadow!

Without any pause.

Shadowless and the two clones immediately activated the Instant Shadow skill, with speed increased by 100%, and the next strike ignoring the enemy’s defense.

Then, Shadow Kill launched!

It transformed into a phantom to dodge the entangle, instantly teleporting to the back of the Fear Tree Demon, with the spiked dagger in its hand filled with cold killing intent.

"Screech!"

"Boom!"

The strongest strike from the two single units of the Royal Family simultaneously hit and exploded fiercely on the Fear Tree Demon.

That towering body, several tens of meters high, was instantly penetrated and fell heavily to the ground.

[Congratulations, you successfully killed the Tier Eight Lord Demon, gaining 100,000 Magic Energy and one Tier Eight Territory Essence.]

Instant kill!

No suspense whatsoever.

Big Cannon and Shadowless, as Lin You’s strongest single remote and melee units, had a power sufficient to pierce through everything.

Even a Tier Eight Lord Demon could not withstand it head-on.

This scene stunned all the Lords in their tracks, faces filled with terror.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, several vines suddenly rushed out, swept up the dropped treasure and Territory Essence, and stole them away.

"This..."

The Lords stared dumbstruck at the corpse on the ground and the treasure taken by Lin You, their hearts profoundly shocked.

But they dared not seize it.

Because they had all been intimidated by the previous attack.

Which Tier Eight Lord could accomplish an instant kill on an SSS-level Lord Demon?

Though unwilling in heart, they did not think they could snatch anything from Lin You.

Especially on the Floating Islands, where they could teleport away at any time.

Ultimately, they could only watch Lin You take the treasure away leisurely, unable to do anything, feeling extremely frustrated.

No way around it.

They could only shift their attention to the remaining Lord Demons and, along with their species troops, rushed over.

Lin You glanced at the chaotic scene but did not go for other Lord Demons’ kills.

Instead, he guided the plant army back to their position and began checking the newly acquired treasure’s information.

The drop from an SSS-level Lord Demon was much richer compared to an S-level.

A Treasure Pearl that adds 500 experience points and a Commanding Ancient Tree Token.

Besides, he finally obtained a Species Secret Treasure.

Moreover, it was a Secret Treasure related to the Fear Tree Demon’s spiritual skills.

[Species Secret Treasure: Spiritual Concentration]

[Treasure Type: Enhancement]

[Treasure Level: SSS-level]

[Treasure Effect: Spirit enhancement 4%, Natural Magic power enhancement 4%]

[Introduction: A Secret Treasure for enhancing species; usable in a species base, only enhancing a single type of species.]

Enhancement-type Secret Treasures generally enhance certain attributes.

Like this treasure, it’s a premium among plant magic system Secret Treasures.

Perfect for Lingxi.

Additionally, other Elf Sages and Fairies can benefit, boosting healing skills’ power, balancing offense and defense, simply perfect.

"Great stuff, totally worth it."

Lin You’s lips curled into a smile.

Killing Plant Lord Monsters is indeed the wisest choice, as the drops are mostly usable for him.

As for the Commanding Ancient Tree Token, it can be used immediately, saving him 20 days of research time.

Satisfied, he carefully stored the items, finally turning his gaze elsewhere.

At this moment, battles on the various Floating Islands had reached a fever pitch.

The Lord Demons that emerged from the spatial rifts were being killed in succession, with just a few still resisting stubbornly.

And just then.

A loud "boom" erupted from the Central Island, the rift suddenly shaking violently.

A chill capable of freezing souls surged out from the rift, spreading rapidly around.

Wherever it went, the air froze, and a thick layer of frost formed.

"It’s coming!"

Several Tier Ten Lords standing in the void trembled internally.

Their figures swayed, instantly appearing above the rift, summoning species to completely surround it.

"Another Tier Ten Demon appeared!"

"Seems like it’s over by the Central Island; quickly leave here!"

"Hurry! Head to the outer islands!"

Tier Eight and Nine Lords on the various platforms quickly reacted.

Shouting as they fled away from the Central Island, not teleporting back to their territories yet.

Lin You followed suit, remaining on the edge islands.

Seeing the Tier Ten Demon appear in the center area, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and observed from afar.

Then, amidst violent tremors, an Ice Element Venerable, composed entirely of deep blue ice, passed through the fissure.

A terrifying chill erupted, instantly sweeping through the entire Floating Islands region, making everyone shiver uncontrollably.

"Take action!"

Several Tier Ten Lords bellowed, and their armies transformed into a tide, fiercely charging at the Ice Element Venerable.

Not to be outdone, the Ice Element Venerable swiftly rose into the sky, creating an ice path, and engaged in a frenzied battle with the armies.

In an instant, space shattered and clouds froze over.

It was as if the whole sky changed color!

Unfortunately, because of the distance, Lin You could not discern the attributes of the Tier Ten Demon.

He could only vaguely hear from distant exclamations that this seemed to be an S-level Tier Ten Leader, two Chaos Levels lower than yesterday.

Yet, even so.

The power of the Ice Element Venerable was still extremely terrifying.

It remained unyielding under the assault of several Kings’ armies, unleashing a storm of ice.

The intensity of the scene made the Lords exclaim in awe, shouting in excitement.

However, they dared not get too close and could only watch from afar.

Gradually.

The battle on the Central Island grew ever more grand, fighting fiercely from the platform to the sky, quickly disappearing into the clouds.

Only the roar of explosions echoed from above, accompanied by a rain of ice, forcing the Lords to activate their Defense Skills for protection.

"Is this the power of Tier Ten? Wouldn’t it be great if I could reach that level too."

"Oh, come on, do you think reaching Tier Ten is that easy?"

"I heard that if you want to advance from Tier Nine to Tier Ten and don’t have a Divine Fragment, you might have to kill a Tier Ten Demon on your own."

"Whoa, really? Solo a Tier Ten?"

"Even the lowest F-level beings have average attributes of 60,000. How could anyone manage that?"

"Who knows? Because so few people can do it, the truth is unclear."

"Indeed, Divine Fragments are such treasures, how can ordinary people obtain them?"

These discussions reached Lin You’s ears, startling him.

This was his first time hearing about advancement from Tier Nine to Tier Ten.

Soloing a Tier Ten Demon, whether true or not, sounded incredibly outrageous.

Because the basic attributes of a Tier Nine Soldier are no more than 5000 points.

Even with various Treasure Effects and Origin Space enhancements, tripling this only results in about 15,000, far less than an F-level Tier Ten Demon.

Even for him.

After Tier Nine, his attributes, bolstered by Symbiotic Moss, reached 10,000.

Tripled, that’s only 30,000, barely half.

Killing a Tier Ten Demon is nearly impossible.

Unless Tier Nine has some method he doesn’t know to further boost power.

Otherwise, this path is sealed, the only hope is acquiring Divine Fragment inheritance through various fortuitous encounters.

Just like the three pieces he possesses.

Two pieces were passed to him from fallen Kings.

Or similar to Michael from the Holy Light Realm, receiving blessings from the Main God.

But no matter the case, these situations are rare.

"Look quickly! The battle seems to be ending!"

At this, a voice of surprise emerged from the crowd.

The Lords, while fending off the ice and slaying demons, raised their heads to look skyward.

The Ice Element Venerable’s body was now shattered under the fierce assault of several Tier Ten attacks; large gaps appeared as it attempted to flee towards the platform to escape via the fissure.

"Stop it!"

An Insect King shouted, and the army of insects, as dense as storm clouds, descended from the sky, completely engulfing the Ice Element Venerable.

The other Kings did not hold back either.

They unleashed their strongest attacks, striking the Ice Element Venerable, causing a massive explosion in the sky.

In an instant, space collapsed and the sky spun upside down.

The grievously wounded Ice Element Venerable finally succumbed to the heavy blows, exploding into countless ice fragments with a resounding "boom".

Tier Ten Demon.

Dead!

This was Lin You’s first time witnessing a battle at such close range between Tier Ten entities.

He was immediately stunned by the grandiose spectacle, standing in place with a look of shock.

Other nearby Lords erupted into a flurry of exclamations, their faces flushed with excitement.

They seemed to feel as glorious as if they had broken reality with their hands.

But they were not given much chance to discuss.

After collecting the Ice Element Venerable’s corpse and several gold-glowing treasures, the Tier Ten Kings vanished in a flash.

The collapsed space gradually repaired itself, returning to its original state.

Danger was lifted.

Many immediately teleported back to their territories to relay the news. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Others spread out across the other Floating Islands to block the common demons escaping through the cracks.

Everything resumed orderly.

Lin You, on the edge of the platform, quickly returned to his position, continuing to hunt demons and gather resources.

...

And so.

Until the afternoon of the third day.

The demon uprising finally ended, all spatial cracks were completely crushed, disappearing above the Floating Islands, and a large cheer erupted on the island.

Lin You assessed his gains from these three days; adding the initial 2.3 billion, he amassed a total of 5 billion Magic Energy.

After deducting what he owed Li Ke, there was exactly 1 billion left.

He truly made a fortune thanks to this demon uprising.
