Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
As the demonic bellow echoed throughout the land, the entire space outside of the Northern Wilderness Hill seemed to turn into demonic ruins. All this while, a constant stream of a demonic aura gushed forth.
Amid the demonic aura that was rising in the air, strong and powerful demonic figures were standing, each of their faces filled with creepy and cold gazes. They were looking at the various Heavenly Sovereigns within the hill as if they were hunting their prey.
Suddenly, a commotion erupted among the various Heavenly Sovereigns in the Northern Wilderness Hill as they all looked at the demonic aura. Some of them were panicking.
After all, it was their first time seeing such a large gathering of the Extraterritorial Race in thousands of years. Moreover, they knew that those people from the Extraterritorial Race that could make it here could only be total experts!
Qin Tian, the Green Shirt Sword Saint, and the Undying Lord were all had cold looks on their faces as they looked up and glared at the demonic figures. Qin Tian then said, “All of you are outrageous! How dare you enter the Great Thousand World? Aren’t you afraid that we might gather our strength and wipe you out?”
The demonic aura swirled and gathered rapidly outside of the hill. It then transformed into a black-robed figure that had a boundless aura encircling him, as though he was a sovereign among evil beings.
Yet, he still looked kind and compassionate, his eyes especially. In fact, anyone would have an urge to bow to him after looking him in the eyes.
“Heh… The Northern Wilderness Hill was sealed off as soon as we showed up. Even if we wrecked this entire place, none of you could deliver any message out from here!” The black-robed figure smiled and looked at Qin Tian and the rest.
He then said, “If the three of you let our God out, the Extraterritorial Race and the Great Thousand World can be at peace.”
“Saint Heaven Demon Emperor…” Qin Tian recognized the black-robed figure immediately. He was the sovereign of the Extraterritorial Race, who was directly under the Heavenly Evil Deity.
It definitely seemed like the Extraterritorial Race had sent out their best forces in order to save the Heavenly Evil Deity!
“The Extraterritorial Race has always been cruel and merciless, and they have trampled the spiritual beings in the Great Thousand World like grass for too long! You must be joking if you talk about peace!” the Undying Lord said coldly.
The Saint Heaven Demon Emperor could not help but chuckle when he heard this. He then replied casually, “No matter where you are, the Law of the Jungle is a standard rule. If we want to survive, we have to take over the Great Thousand World and pollute the disgusting spiritual aura that is within the world, converting it into an evil aura. Only then can I help you alter your bodies into demonic ones, thus allowing you to adapt to the new Great Thousand World.”
“How dare you pollute the spiritual aura of our Great Thousand World?” one of the Heavenly Sovereigns scolded after he heard this.
After all, the spiritual aura was the fundamental source for cultivation in the Great Thousand World. If the aura was polluted, the years of hardship and cultivation that they had endured would be for nothing, as they would then lack spiritual energy!
This repercussion would be the same even for the Heavenly Sovereigns. By doing this, the Extraterritorial Race intended to cut their sources for spiritual energy in the Great Thousand World!
As the Green Shirt Sword Saint held his sword, he smiled and looked at the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor, then said, “Stop dreaming. Go back to where you belong. We will never allow you to lay a finger on the Great Thousand World.”
The Saint Heaven Demon Emperor replied, “It looks like you’re not interested in my suggestion. In that case…” he paused for a while, coldness surging from his eyes, then continued, “I will get rid of all of the natives like you!”
“Heh… Why waste your time talking to the natives of the Great Thousand World? Just subdue them and make them our slaves! Doesn’t that sound good to you?” As the voice of the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor faded, a demonic aura gathered around him before it transformed into a demonic figure that possessed an intense demonic mightiness. It was the Clan Leader of the Heaven Demon Clan!
He was staring at the Heavenly Sovereigns in the Northern Wilderness Hill with a vague smile. He then licked his lips with his red tongue, as though he was a starving wolf that had just seen a delicious rabbit.
“How arrogant! Do you think that you can actually barge into this enormous array?” Maha Tian could not help but sneer.
After all, even though the Extraterritorial Race had come to this place in full force, they could not strike easily at all. Apparently, they were also wary of the Great Thousand Exterminate Demon Array that the Immortal Emperor had left behind. This was understandable, as the array contained a boundless and tremendous power that could kill anyone from the Extraterritorial Race in an instant.
As the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor looked down at the majestic array that loomed over the sky above the Northern Wilderness Hill, a faint glow reflected in his eyes. After a while, he let out a soft sigh, then said, “But… I really never expected that someone like the Immortal Emperor would appear in the Great Thousand World…”
He shook his head, then said with an indifferent tone, “But… However mighty the array is, it is still just a lifeless array. If you think that you can safeguard the peace of the Great Thousand World with this array, I’m afraid you’re being naïve.”
The Saint Heaven Demon Emperor then swung his robe and said, “Corrosive Demon Clan, you may strike.”
As soon as he said this, a demonic aura surged from the crack in the air. Countless demonic figures were sitting crossed-legged within the aura.
The bodies of these demonic figures looked slimy, and black liquid dripped from their bodies nonstop. As each drop of liquid fell, it left an eroded trace of it in the air.
The Corrosive Demon Clan was born with corrosive power, which was rather tyrannical. As such, any energy that came into contact with it would be eroded.
Roar!
At that moment, countless demonic figures let out a collective low bellow. At the same time, demonic rays shot out from their bodies, as though the rays were sharp knives!
Bang!
As the demonic rays were sweeping out, the demonic figures all exploded. After their bodies exploded, drops of black and sticky liquid rose in the air.
The dark liquid was as black as coal. As it slowly spread out, even the air and space could not tolerate it. It possessed such a daunting power that it could erode the whole world!
Soon, the drops of black liquid transformed into a black stream. The black stream then fell from the sky and hit the light shield on the Great Thousand Exterminate Demon Array.
Sstz!
When the two came into contact with one another, a cloud of white smoke rose into the air. Light sparkled and ripples surfaced on the light shield, which possessed immense power. A mysterious power then quickly purified the black stream.
“Phew.” All the Heavenly Sovereigns heaved a huge collective sigh of relief after they saw this. The defense of the Great Thousand Exterminate Demon Array was far better than what they had expected.
“Carry on!” The Saint Heaven Demon Emperor remained composed and spoke nonchalantly.
“For our race!” countless demonic figures from the Corrosive Demon Clan yelled in unison, then continued to self-detonate, one by one.
Immediately, the black liquid rose into the sky and transformed into several streams. The streams continued to throw themselves at the Great Thousand Exterminate Demon Array.
Sstz!
The Great Thousand Exterminate Demon Array managed to purify the black liquid despite its formidable corrosive power. The light shield was also not damaged at all.
However, the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor did not seem to notice this, much less become worried about it. He simply continued to command members from the Corrosive Demon Clan to keep self-detonating.
Mu Chen frowned as he observed this scene. After a short while, his eyes suddenly narrowed as he exclaimed loudly, “They are depleting the power of the array in order to delay the ancient spears from forming!”
As soon as they heard Mu Chen, Qin Tian, the Green Shirt Sword Saint, and the Undying Lord were all shocked. They turned to look at the array and realized that the duration for the ancient spears to form had been prolonged!
Before, a spear would only take 30 minutes to form, whereas the time it took to form now was closer to 45 minutes! Apparently, the Extraterritorial Race did not use the dark liquid to erode the light shield, but to buy themselves more time!
“Continue to inject more spiritual energy!” Qin Tin yelled.
Upon hearing his command, all of the Heavenly Sovereigns quickly sat with their legs crossed and circulated their spiritual energies. The vast amount of energies was then immediately injected into the bronze coffins.
As he looked at the vast amount of demonic aura with his cold eyes, the Undying Lord said, “The Extraterritorial Race is indeed ruthless. They are actually willing to sacrifice a clan in order to break the seal.” The Corrosive Demon Clan was this sacrifice, and such a mean and cruel technique sent chills running up all of their spines.
“If this goes on, we’ll land ourselves in a war of attrition. The Extraterritorial Race came in full force, but we did not gather the strongest forces of the Great Thousand World here. In this way, they have already proven themselves to be stronger than us,” the Green Shirt Sword Saint said.
He then added, “If the fight is further prolonged, I’m afraid that something will go wrong once we display any flaw.”
Qin Tian’s eyes flickered as he said, “No matter what, we must persist till the 99 ancient spears have been released. Only then will the Heavenly Evil Deity’s vitality be wiped out, which means that the Extraterritorial Race will not be able to make a comeback.”
He then added, “Since they are trying to deplete the strength of the array to delay the 99 ancient spears from forming, the three of us can strike together to divide their power. In that way, we can buy some time.”
“Okay.” Both the Green Shirt Sword Saint and the Undying Lord slightly pondered this for a moment, then nodded their heads in agreement to the proposed plan.
Shoo!
As soon as they finished their discussion, they beamed out into three streamers and soared up into the sky. They soon came to the empty space, then eventually landed on the light shield.
Boom!
At that moment, a large amount of spiritual energy swept out like a huge wave, washing away the three black streams.
“Three of you want to challenge the entire Extraterritorial Race?” When the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor saw the trio, he sneered at them as he waved his palm.
As soon as he did that, six figures that looked like demonic gods walked out from the immense demonic aura that was behind him. These figures brought with them a sense of an overwhelming and boundless demonic oppression.
When everyone, including Mu Chen, saw the six god-like figures in the Northern Wilderness Hill, their eyes grew wide. This was because all six of them were top-notch Heaven Demon Emperors in the later-stage of the Divine Grade!
“Let’s get ready to help!” Maha Tian shouted to the other four ancient clans’ leaders and elders.
“No… The most important thing now is to provide sufficient spiritual energy for the Great Thousand Exterminate Demon Array. We need to ensure the 99 ancient spears can be formed!” Mu Chen frowned, then replied in a low voice.
Qing Yanjing nodded, then added, “We cannot be reckless!”
Great Nether Ancestor from the Great Spirit Ancient Clan, Black Heavens Clan Leader from the Black Heavens Ancient Clan, and Huang Qiu from the Primitive Ancient Clan hesitated for a while before they all nodded. Indeed, the most important task now was to kill the Heavenly Evil Deity. When Maha Tian saw this, he snorted to himself and said nothing further, as he knew what mattered most at the moment.
“Haha! We’ll offer three lives to our God as his first welcome gift on earth today!” The six gigantic demonic figures stood tall and firm as they shouted in unison.
Their demonic voices shook the earth, and the boundless demonic oppression that they exuded began to loom over Qin Tian, the Green Shirt Sword Saint, and the Undying Lord. Many demonic figures, all of whom looked like they were ready to strike at any time, locked their cold gazes on the three of them.
Qin Tian, the Green Shirt Sword Saint, and the Undying Lord glared at those demonic figures with cold expressions. There was no fear in their eyes, except in regards to the surrounding spiritual energy, which continued to surge and shake the earth.
“Attack!” The six demonic figures let out a collective roar as they charged toward Qin Tian and the rest.
Roar!
Just when they were about to strike, a deafening dragon-like roar echoed between Heaven and Earth. At the same time, a golden ray broke through the immense demonic aura and transformed into a golden dragon. The colossal dragon crouched in the sky as a boundless dragon oppression raged throughout the land.
“Haha! Brother Qin, the Divine Beasts’ Clans are also part of the spiritual beings in the Great Thousand World! How can you leave us out when it involves such an important matter?” the golden dragon asked, while filling the air with colorful light beams that were sweeping out from its back.
At that moment, numerous large and glowing figures walked out into the air. All of them were well-known Sovereign Divine Beasts in the Great Thousand World.
Many Heavenly Sovereigns, including Mu Chen, were delighted to see these Sovereign Divine Beasts appear. As they smiled with relief, they all thought… The Divine Beasts’ Clans of the Great Thousand World have finally made it, just in time!
