"Another one has fallen."
Upon witnessing this scene, the demon gods of Chaos City trembled. Even the Overlord-level demon gods, who once believed they could contend with the Lord of Chaos City, now felt their confidence waver.
Their hearts turned cold.
How powerful was the Chaos Demon God? It embodied chaos itself, spreading destruction wherever it went. Many claimed it was the strongest among the demon gods. Yet now, it had been annihilated by the Chaos City Lord as easily as chopping melons and vegetables.
Its body had been cleaved into countless pieces—an utterly lifeless corpse.
If they were in its place, their fate would be even worse. At this moment, they truly grasped the sheer might of the Chaos City Lord. This was no exaggeration.
"Escape!"
The Hunger Demon God, seeing the Plague Demon God and Chaos Demon God perish one after another, was gripped by fear. Its insatiable hunger was replaced by sheer terror, and its very soul seemed to tremble.
Whoosh!
Without hesitation, it turned and fled. Pouring all its strength into its bloodline abilities, its massive body transformed into a streak of black light, desperately trying to escape.
At this moment, it no longer wished to devour the Chaos City Lord. It simply wanted to live.
Boom!
But before it could escape, Gu Chuan struck again. With a single finger, he unleashed his power.
Supernatural Spell – Great Flood!
Rumble~~
Instantly, a colossal black flood materialized around the Hunger Demon God, surging outward with overwhelming force, engulfing the chaotic void.
The flood poured into its nose, mouth, and eyes. Thick black liquid flooded its body, making it choke and scream in agony.
For this was no ordinary flood—it was the Water of Lifeless Calamity. Once trapped in it, there was no escape. Not even a feather would remain.
Each drop of this inanimate tribulation water possessed corrosive and erosive properties so terrifying that even a demon god's indestructible body would dissolve completely—like sulfuric acid melting everything in its path.
"No! No! Help! Help me!"
The Hunger Demon God screamed, thrashing like a drowning beast.
It had always prided itself on devouring anything and everything. Yet, when it attempted to consume the tribulation water, it found that it could not digest it. Instead, the water seeped into every cell of its being, corroding it from the inside out.
In mere moments, its dimensional stomach was full—an unprecedented sensation. For the first time in eternity, it felt satiated.
But the tribulation water did not stop flowing. No matter how much the Hunger Demon God had consumed before, it had never experienced the horror of being forcibly fed beyond its limit.
Rumble~~
The next second, the Hunger Demon God let out another agonized wail. Its stomach swelled like an enormous star, expanding like an overfilled balloon.
Bang!
Its body exploded into countless pieces. Not even bones remained—completely obliterated.
Its lifeless eyes were frozen wide in disbelief.
Even as a Hunger Demon God—an entity of boundless appetite—it had been force-fed to death. The irony was beyond tragic.
This sight sent shudders through the remaining demon gods.
"My god... the Hunger Demon God is dead?"
"It's worse than death. It was force-fed until it burst."
"A wanderer drowns in water... The Hunger Demon God must have never imagined that the first time it felt full would also be its last."
"So, this is the Water of Lifeless Calamity? Terrifying. Pure death, no life. Any demon god who falls into it is doomed."
"This is the power of supernatural spells—laws taken to their absolute limits. I never imagined such an application was possible."
"The difference between a demon god who has mastered supernatural spells and one who hasn't is like heaven and earth."
"The Hunger Demon God wasn't even unlucky—it was simply outmatched. It relied on brute force alone. Against a demon god who has mastered supernatural spells and divine arts, the gap is immeasurable. If it hadn't died, who else would have?"
The demon gods murmured amongst themselves. The battle had been an eye-opening lesson. If the Chaos City Lord's previous teachings had been theoretical, this was practical—a display of cultivation's true power.
They now understood the importance of supernatural powers.
If one likened the Martial Forest to this realm, magic power and comprehension of laws were akin to a martial master's Internal Energy—the foundation of strength.
But supernatural spells were like the secret techniques of Martial Dao—such as the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms, Light Steps Over Rippling Waves, and the Six-Meridian Divine Sword. Only by mastering such techniques could one fully unleash their Internal Energy.
Most Overlord-level demon gods only had raw power but lacked the techniques to wield it effectively. They were like warriors with immense internal energy but no martial skills—making them helpless against a true master.
This was why demon gods proficient in supernatural spells crushed those who relied on brute strength alone.
Of course, supernatural spells were not everything. The foundation remained magic power and law comprehension.
But if one knew how to wield their strength, they became invincible.
At that moment, Gu Chuan's gaze shifted. His divine sense swept across the chaotic void.
"Hmm... there's still a little rat hiding."
With a thought, he extended his will. An invisible force crushed down, shattering the void.
"Ahh!"
A piercing scream echoed.
Though the space had appeared empty before, an unseen entity had been lurking in the shadows. Now, it was exposed.
A cloud of black smoke emerged, twisting the void around it. The darkness it exuded was deeper than even the abyss.
Panic filled the entity.
It had never imagined that its presence would be discovered.
Whoosh!
Without hesitation, the black smoke fled at unimaginable speed, melting into the chaotic void, surpassing the speed of light a hundredfold. Within mere moments, it had vanished beyond the range of Gu Chuan's divine sense.
"Escaped?"
Gu Chuan narrowed his eyes.
That wisp of black smoke had not been particularly strong, yet it was far more sinister than the previous three demon gods.
More dangerously, it had been lurking in the darkness, searching for an opportunity—a weak point to exploit.
Such an entity was extremely perilous.
That was why he had acted—to warn the small and deter the great.
But he had not expected this strange demon god to be so quick-witted. The moment it sensed danger, it fled without hesitation.
