"Be careful, this is my life weapon, much stronger than ordinary weapons, and it greatly enhances his strength as well!" The little guy named Rinka spoke to Bexia. Although she didn't know him, she knew Moon, and the two of them were considered friends. So when Bexia appeared alongside Moon, Rinka instinctively treated Bexia as part of her side.

"Got it!" Bexia turned to look at Rinka, sizing her up. She noticed that this little demon with two horns was in tatters for some reason, not even wearing shoes, standing there barefoot. She also had shackles on all four limbs, as if she had just been released from prison.

"Come forth, my Flame Prison!"

Acula's single sword pierced the air, causing countless waves of flames to surge from below. Numerous fire clouds appeared above, with each drop of scorching magma leaving a trail. From a distance, it looked like a red downpour.

Domain: Flame Prison

"My servant, incinerate the person before you!"

Acula communicated with his domain, and from the magma below emerged colossal magma giants that were thousands of meters tall. Above them, the fire clouds churned and transformed into flaming birds, dropping many colorful feathers with each flap of their wings. However, what fell were huge fireballs.

"It's another domain, this kind of ability is a bit annoying!" Bexia pursed her lips. The domain was a symbol of the Saint, and as for when one could comprehend the powers of their domain, it depended on their own enlightenment. A Saint who had not comprehended their domain could not ascend to immortality.

"Just smash them with your fist!" Rinka's words felt impulsive. She clenched her small fist, gazing at the approaching firebird, and leaped forward with a punch.

"Bang!"

There were no fancy moves, just a simple punch, but the firebird's body disappeared under the force of the blow.

No rippling, nor any skill, just a completely ordinary punch relying solely on physical strength. This amazed Bexia; the sheer strength of this physical body was incredible!

"Rinka is a direct descendant of the Demon King of Strength, and their innate strength probably surpasses almost all the races in the dimensional universe!" Moon said, looking at Bexia's astonished expression and speaking with a proud tone.

"Demon King of Strength? I've only heard of the Hundred Demons among the demons!"

Bexia only knew about the Hundred Demons among the demon race. Of course, there were definitely more than a hundred types, and the so-called Hundred Demons were just some of the prominent ones.

"The Hundred Demons among the demon race is a term passed down from hell. Above the Hundred Demons are the Four Demon Kings, who are equivalent to the ruler of Hell, King Yama!"

"Is that so? It seems what I know is somewhat different. Below King Yama, it seems there are other deities, such as Judges, Meng Po, Yellow Springs, and the Other Shore, etc.!"

"That's the ceremonial system of the old Hell. I'm talking about the new Hell now!" Moon loudly countered Bexia's words, giving him a look as if to say, 'You didn't even know that.'

"The new Hell does not have the complicated rules of the old Hell; it's all about the fist!" Rinka pushed back, although she was unharmed, her clothes looked even more tattered, especially the edges that had already turned yellow and curled up due to burning.

"Are you guys just going to chat here and not help?" Rinka sounded a little annoyed when she asked this, wondering why she was the only one fighting, especially against these things covered in flames. Don't they know it's hot?

"No problem!" Bexia nodded, taking out a long bow and an arrow. This particular domain was indeed troublesome, so he was prepared to break through it in one go.

This was the Undying-class long bow that Christine had refined last time, infused with arrow spirits. Afterward, Bexia could also wield it.

Pull the bowstring!

Full draw!

Weapons like this generally possessed immense destructive power. It had already been proven in the previous encounter with Basao, and how much power had been exerted back then?

The power this time was at least two to three times greater than the last, breaking through this domain would be a breeze.

"Do you think I don't exist?" Akura swung his knife, and suddenly, a giant lava man several thousand meters high crawled out of the sea of fire, roaring as it punched toward Bexia, accompanied by a scorching hot airflow.

"Pass my test first!"

Rinka stepped forward, her petite body swiftly soaring in the blink of an eye, almost reaching the height of the lava giant. Faced with the giant's fist, she returned a punch, accompanied by some special ability.

"Boom!" The clash of two fists stirred up currents of scorching hot lava from the giant, the pressure causing the chains on Rinka's wrist to clatter.

"Seeking death!" Being blocked by Rinka, Akura leaped up, dagger in hand, stabbing towards Rinka's forehead. However, she quickly blocked it with her left hand, but Akura's attack opened a bloody hole in her palm, continuing to aim towards her face.

"Crimson Spear!" A crimson spear shot forth, even more powerful than before. Akura immediately halted his retreat and defended, as continuing the attack would surely hit him—this was not the outcome he desired.

"Roar!" With Rinka's hand pierced, the lava giant took this opportunity to deliver a heavy punch to her shoulder, causing her to grunt.

Despite the injury, Rinka did not back down, her eyes turning blood-red, emitting a fierce aura. Roaring like a wild beast, she disregarded her injuries, delivering a punch that crushed half of the lava giant's head.

"Die! Die! Die…." Rinka seemed almost like a madwoman, completely ignoring her own injuries, engaging in a frenzied clash with the lava giant using the most primal fighting techniques. Each blow erupted in violent collisions.

"This is getting a bit brutal..." Bexia, watching Rinka in this state, felt a bit uneasy about it, even forgetting to shoot the arrow in his hand, just staring blankly at the battle unfolding before him.

"Phew!" Suddenly, a breaking wind sound snapped Bexia back to reality. It turned out Akura had been pushed back by Rinka and felt Bexia's gaze, glaring at him disapprovingly.

"What are you staring at?"

"Just for a while longer!"

Bexia awkwardly nodded, turning to look at Akura in midair, directly shooting the arrow at him.

Aim?

That was completely unnecessary. Ordinary people need to aim and lock onto a target when shooting arrows, but for practitioners at his level, they no longer needed to aim. They only needed to lock onto the opponent's aura, and the arrow could follow the opponent wherever they went.

"Swoosh!"

"Bang!" While the bowstring still slightly trembled, the arrow had turned into a stream of light, shooting towards Akura. Feeling the power on the arrow, Akura's expression changed drastically; the force was much more potent than the divine spear of the moon.

It's not that the arrow is more powerful than the Moon's Gongnir, it's just that one is reusable while the other is a consumable that requires a long time to recharge. The essence of the two determines the magnitude of their power!
