Chapter 261: Chapter 261 Yeru
"Ming Wang..." Ye An's face turned solemn.
There was no need for action; just through eye contact and posture, Ye An could already feel the opponent's immense strength.
Though born handsome as a deity, there was an eerie peculiarity about him that at times made him seem like a creature straight out of a horror story.
This would undoubtedly be Ye An's greatest adversary on this journey, yet information on Ming Wang was scarce, with only this single dossier held by the humans.
He rarely acted, and to date, no one had withstood his collapses.
Locking on, activating his talents, annihilating the opponent—a seamless process, utterly ruthless.
Yet, Ye An was undeterred because martial intent could withstand anything.
Continuing to peruse the opponent's information, aside from Ming Wang, there was another opponent who caught Ye An's interest.
This individual hailed from the Demon Clan, a demon who was supposed to have died over twenty years ago, named Yeru.
Yeru was the strongest prodigy of the previous generation of demons, with the talent of the Deep Black Eye—an infinite-level talent combining elements and spiritual power.
Yeru bore a vertical pupil on his forehead, known as the God's Eye—a mark of high-blood lineage among the deities, also possessed by Li He.
Thus, Yeru was a hybrid of deity and demon, possessing a vertical-pupil God's Eye infused with dark elements.
This eye was his talent rune, the Deep Black Eye capable of devouring both material reality and the spiritual realm. It surpassed even the Black Dragon King's hyper-devouring ability, which could only consume physical matter, whereas Yeru could consume even unseen spiritual forces.
Ye An's interest in him stemmed from prior knowledge: over twenty years ago, Yeru was hanged by the previous generation's strongest human prodigy in the Hellish Battlefield.
It was a heart-stirring battle; ultimately, the humans returned victorious, leaving Yeru and his team of prodigies forever on the battlefield.
Half of the demon clan's prodigies perished in that battle.
And on that day, the human prodigy who led the expedition was named Liu Jun, also the strongest genius of the previous human generation.
Ye An had only recently learned of this name.
He remembered encountering a boxing master named A Xing at a spaceship transfer station not long ago.
He had asked him if becoming strong enough to win everything could make people believe that practicing boxing was meaningful.
A Xing said, "Of course. Over twenty years ago, the Gun Dao flourished because of a prodigy known as the Silver Spear White Horse."
Ye An was puzzled at the time—how could he have no impression of this Gun Dao prodigy from over twenty years ago?
Later, he searched through the vast human star network and found that the search queries for Liu Jun, the previous generation's number one, were actually fewer than those for today's hottest celebrities.
When physical functions were exhausted, the only thing left to consume was future potential and one's own lifespan.
In that battle, he gave everything except his life and eventually won, but he also became a waste, fading into dust.
Ye An suddenly thought, would the previous generation's him watching us this generation on TV be somewhat unwilling?
"Thinking about Liu Jun?" Suddenly, Lin Ying asked.
"Do you know Liu Jun too?"
"Of course." Lin Ying smiled; he always cared about young people's physical health.
"Liu Jun also learned a half move from me back then."
"I really liked that kid."
"Just a pity."
"It's okay to have nothing to do sometimes. Let me show you the battle footage from back then."
Each human combatant carried a portable recorder, recording everything that happened on the battlefield.
Naturally, the human prodigies who accompanied Liu Jun back then had this recording, which was now in Lin Ying's hands.
Ye An watched attentively at the enormous screen before him.
At first glance, he was shocked.
The battle Liu Jun participated in wasn't something like the Bright Sword Conference.
He was stationed at the Fifth Great Wall, Seventeenth Front, already a veteran soldier with numerous achievements.
On that day, the demons launched a full-scale war against the Fifth Great Wall, drowning all fronts in a sea of fire, especially Liu Jun's Seventeenth Front.
There were even rumors that the reason the demons launched such a level of war was to kill Liu Jun.
If left to grow, the human race would likely produce another semi-divine figure.
Liu Jun was in an invincible state at the Sixth Realm, entering as the main attacker of the Seventeenth Front. He swept through like a broken bamboo, as if in an uninhabited land, wielding his seven-foot-long spear on the battlefield, stirring endless blood.
But Liu Jun got carried away and crossed the border directly.
Suddenly, a powerful demon, at a great cost, forcibly moved a Hellish Asura battlefield to the Seventeenth Front within the Fifth Great Wall.
In the battlefield, Yeru led a group of demon super-prodigies to kill Liu Jun.
At the time, the front district chief issued a death order, regardless of how many people, to protect Liu Jun safely, let all the soldiers enter the
