. The Evil-Eyed Demon Ape was oblivious to Chen Ming's presence, continuing to use his skilled massage techniques and various tools to groom the resting Evil Emperor's tentacles. It wasn't until Chen Ming leaped directly onto the Evil Emperor, displaying his soul power, that the drowsy Evil Emperor and his tribe of Evil-Eyed Demon Apes finally noticed the presence of this outsider.
Seeing Chen Ming treading upon the Evil Emperor's largest tentacle, the Evil-Eyed Demon Ape King, the king of the Evil-Eyed Demon Ape clan, possessing only two heads and a hundred thousand years of cultivation, let out a cry of terror, his two heads simultaneously revealing a humanlike fear.
"A mere human soul master, dares to trample upon the body of the Evil Emperor!"
"You are so disrespectful! You are so disrespectful! I will extract your soul and roast it in flames!"
the Evil-Eyed Demon Ape King roared, his two single eyes lighting up simultaneously, emitting a dark glow. The special innate abilities inherited from the Evil-Eyed Demon Ape clan were activated to their full potential, attempting to extract Chen Ming's soul in one go.
Facing this attack, Chen Ming simply raised his arm and made a grasping gesture with his palm. The Evil-Eye Demon Ape King felt his body instantly lighten, and the distance between him and the human gradually closed.
As a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast, inheriting the bloodlines of two top-tier spiritual beasts, the Cyclops and the Evil Eye, the Evil-Eye Demon Ape King immediately understood that his soul had been directly ripped from his body through the bond formed by his innate abilities. Terrified, he pleaded with the Evil Emperor for help.
Gazing at the struggling Evil-Eye Demon Ape King, the Evil Emperor subconsciously considered whether to simply devour this disgraceful creature's soul. However, after reflecting on the monkey's massage techniques, the Evil Emperor decided to give this disgraceful creature a chance.
With a casual wave of his tentacles, the powerful spiritual force instantly severed the bond between Chen Ming and the Evil-Eye Demon Ape King, then swatted the Evil-Eye Demon Ape King's soul back into his body.
The Evil Emperor, basking in the sun on a rocky hill, slowly ascended. He casually rolled the masseurs into a ball and tossed them into a corner of the Demonic Forest. He no longer concealed his powerful aura and mental strength. His potent mental energy, fueled by malice, coalesced into an invisible blade, charging recklessly at Chen Ming.
Chen Ming leaped from the Evil Emperor's tentacles and soared into the air, casually summoning his Poison God Martial Soul. Seven spirit rings, four black and three red, materialized around him, revealing the aura of a Quasi-Soul Douluo. God-level mental strength emanated, resisting the Evil Emperor's mental attacks while also delivering a minor counterattack.
Normally, the Evil Emperor wouldn't even bother to glance at a Quasi-Soul Douluo-level human, simply pulling out their soul and devouring it. But looking at those absurd spirit rings, sensing the mental strength surpassing his own realm and the faint presence of a god-level aura, the Evil Emperor immediately realized that if he wasn't careful, he was doomed.
Despite his notoriously bad temper, the Evil Emperor's massive, three-hundred-meter-diameter eyes, when gazing at Chen Ming, were filled with a benevolent aura. He showed no desire to attack, and even the sinister aura he initially emanated was subdued, giving him the appearance of a harmless, giant tentacle monster.
"Human, why are you invading my Demonic Forest? I haven't had any trouble with the humans of you Sun-Moon Continent in the last few hundred years."
The Evil Emperor waved his tentacles, speaking with caution.
"Alright, stop testing me. We're all just playing games, so spare me these useless word games. I'm not from the Sun-Moon Continent, I'm from the Douluo Continent. The Douluo Continent with the Star Dou Great Forest and the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, Di Tian."
"You can probably tell why I'm here. I'm level eighty and lack an eighth spirit ring. I think your attributes and age suit me perfectly, so I came to you, ready to sacrifice you."

"Human, you are too arrogant!"
Hearing these unabashed words, the Evil Emperor felt a simultaneous pain in his head (?) and cheeks, feeling deeply humiliated. Soul power condensed within his tentacles, and special spiritual properties activated, sending beams of almost imperceptible, transparent light piercing Chen Ming.
Chen Ming casually formed a hand seal across his chest, and a golden light transformed into invisible armor that covered Chen Ming, instantly neutralizing the Evil Emperor's attack. Neither the soul power nor the mental damage it inflicted had any effect on Chen Ming.
"To say such things without the ability is called arrogance, to say such things with the ability is called capital."
Chen Ming sized up the Evil Emperor.
"Let me make it clear. I came here today, and I can't leave empty-handed. I'm determined to take your eighth spirit ring. The only difference is whether you sacrifice it to me or I kill you and absorb your spirit ring."
"I think you're sane enough to see that I'm no ordinary quasi-Soul Douluo. Let me tell you the truth, I'm a demigod with divine status, currently preparing for ascension. Except for my soul power, which isn't divine-level, everything else is divine-level. Consider your own worth before you challenge me."
"You're so arrogant!" The Evil Emperor waved his tentacles in a serious protest, but the terror in his eyes was unconcealable.
He didn't understand how he'd unexpectedly run into such a scourge while simply lying on a rock, basking in the sun and enjoying a massage.
Although he couldn't be certain whether the human before him was truly a divine demigod, the Evil Emperor was certain that the other person's mental power had definitely reached the divine realm. And judging by the blood-red spirit rings pierced with golden threads, he was undoubtedly a veteran at slaying ferocious beasts.
Even if the opponent is not a true demigod, based on this basic configuration, its strength cannot be lower than his own.
The Evil Emperor has no idea what kind of evil spirit he has offended to attract this evil star.
You are so strong, why don't you go to Di Tian's Golden Eyed Black Dragon King to be your spirit ring? Isn't his spirit ring better than mine, the Evil Eyed Tyrant Overlord?
"If you really want a ferocious beast spirit ring, I, the Evil Emperor, will not be a pushover!" The Evil Emperor gritted his teeth and issued his threat.
"I am not the only ferocious beast in my Evil Demon Forest. My eldest son has 390,000 years of cultivation. If you are unwilling to leave like this today, then you can go find my eldest son!"
"Otherwise, I, the Evil Emperor, will self-destruct even if I die. I will not let you absorb my spirit ring and spirit bone!"
