Becoming the Demon Lord: Taming the Demon Queen Begins

Practitioners from various sects had anticipated danger within the forbidden zone, but they never expected to be greeted by such a scene right upon entering.

Tens of thousands of skeletal warriors wielding bone blades surged forward, their roars echoing as if they intended to swallow everyone whole.

What was worse, the skeletons they managed to shatter were reassembling into even larger and more formidable monsters.

The advance of the sects was halted, and nearly all the practitioners were caught in a fierce battle.

The elders of the sects hadn't made a move yet, leaving everyone else to face the overwhelming tide of skeletons.

But just then, the space at the entrance of the forbidden zone twisted.

People from Sky Sanctuary poured into the zone, led by none other than Timothy!

Timothy had arrived!

The name of the Enlightenment Body was well-known, but now, they were too preoccupied to care about anything else.

In such a tense and dangerous battle, even Timothy's arrival seemed uncertain...

Before anyone could react, facing the vast army of skeletons, Timothy stepped forward.

His form turned into a streak of lightning, leaving behind trails of flames hot enough to melt the earth with each step.

Golden light and flames burst from him.

Moving as if he owned the place, Timothy effortlessly tore a rift through the skeleton army.

Any who stood in his way were either smashed to dust with a punch or burned to ashes without a chance to resist.

Unlike the other practitioners who struggled to make headway, Timothy cut through the enemies as easily as if he were having a meal.

As the skeletons shattered, they seemed to grow truly enraged, continuously merging into a massive form.

With a roar that seemed to come from the abyss, the giant skeleton swung its scythe down.

Suddenly, Timothy vanished from the spot.

A flash of lightning streaked by, and in the next moment, he unexpectedly appeared right in front of the giant skeleton.

"Boom."

A heavy thud sounded as the mountainous skeleton staggered like it had been struck by lightning.

The powerful punch spread cracks all over the skeleton, causing its massive form to wobble unstably.

With a second emotionless punch from Timothy, the remains scattered into the air.

Countless bones shattered and the giant skeleton collapsed with a ground-shaking crash.

Timothy's figure continued to disappear and reappear, each punch he threw had unimaginable terrifying force.

Amidst the spreading dust, Timothy moved through the battlefield like an unstoppable war deity!

"Holy shit, is this guy even human?"

The practitioners stood dumbfounded, completely at a loss.

Together, they had barely managed to advance using their most powerful techniques.

But the chilling skeleton army was nothing but child's play in front of Timothy.

Suddenly, they felt their own cultivation was laughably inadequate compared to Timothy's, like children playing house!

The disciples of Sky Sanctuary excitedly shouted, "Brother Timothy is badass! Keep up with Brother Timothy!"

"Brother Timothy is badass!"

As their voices echoed, the people from Sky Sanctuary eagerly followed, pumped with excitement.

In an instant, everyone else snapped out of it.

Now was not the time to worry about other things.

Timothy was the main support, the biggest 'leg' in this secret realm. Clinging to him might just mean a share of the spoils!

"Brother Timothy is badass, and I'm actually one of his hardcore fans too!"

"I'm a diehard fan of Brother Timothy as well, please let me follow him!"

Everyone was quick to follow, showering him with flattery as they hurried along, finally seeing a chance to break free from the skeletal army.

Suddenly, like the cries of countless ghostly infants, thousands of bones surged upwards, converging in the air.

A terrifying giant figure, hundreds of feet tall and radiating a chilling aura, loomed over their path.

A cold dread instantly spread through everyone.

They stared up in shock, eyes wide: "That skeleton giant must have the strength of a Mystic Core at its peak. There's such a terrifying creature in the forbidden zone!"

"Damn, this is too much. How are we supposed to deal with this monster!"

"Boom."

Before their cries of alarm could even fade, Timothy launched a punch, sending a blast of air that toppled the bone giant.

Such a massive figure, emanating an endless aura of death, was effortlessly shattered by a single punch.

Instant kill?

That was an instant kill!

Everyone was dumbstruck, their faces showing an awkward realization.

"Uh, forget what I said..."

"As long as Timothy is here, I'm definitely keeping my mouth shut. It's all the same to him, just one-punch kills, right?"

"Maybe I should just start my training over..."

That punch had completely shattered the pride of many who thought highly of themselves.

They had thought they were useless in front of Timothy, but now it seemed they might be even less than that...

"Charge!"

Tears in their eyes but spirits lifted by following Timothy, they finally broke through the encirclement of the skeleton army.

As they crossed the barren mountains, everyone was struck by the stark contrast.

Unlike the bleak landscape of bones they had left behind, the land beyond the mountains was covered with flowers and grass swaying in the wind.

And more importantly!

"These plants... they're all the most precious herbs!"

Someone shouted in disbelief.

Looking around, the valleys on both sides were filled with colorful flora.

Not just the plants, even the animals darting around were extremely rare spirit beasts.

They had hit the jackpot!

Everyone knew how valuable these items were.

It wasn't clear who started it, but finally, no one could hold back anymore.

The practitioners who had just broken through the encirclement began frantically scrambling for the herbs and spirit beasts.

"Indeed, all these treasures," Timothy observed the chaos among the many sects.

However, these precious herbs, while valuable, couldn't pique his interest.

What Timothy truly sought was at the deepest part of the valley, a nearly imperceptible aura.

The others hadn't noticed it at all.

But he could clearly sense that this faint aura was causing a reaction in his Ancient Saintly Body!

"Are you Timothy?" Just then, a figure cloaked in a black robe approached him.

Though the robe completely concealed her, a breeze blew past, fluttering a strand of golden hair gently in the wind.
