Chapter 95: Crushing Defeat
Chapter 95: Crushing Defeat
Eight terrifying demonic avatars over a hundred meters tall and twenty meters wide surrounded the God of Poison from all sides.
They sealed the God of Poison’s movements within a spherical barrier.
It was a lose-lose battle where both sides were heavily injured, but the victor was still yet to be concluded.
"Keke, do you think you’ve won? Eight against one... This is quite a challenge for a mortal realm class." The Great Sage Black Dragon spat out a mouthful of dark blood.
He then rejuvenated himself, and all his wounds instantly healed. Nevertheless, he was pretty exhausted.
"We can only get here, huh... It’s sure troublesome facing the real immortal from the upper realm."
"What should we do? We still haven’t managed to slay him."
"We have our Young Demon God."
"He’s dead when our Young Demon God makes his move. We have at least proven ourselves, and he will definitely grant our request."
"Keke, this loser doesn’t realize he isn’t the only God here. He doesn’t even know the winner had already concluded long before the battle started."
The ancient demon ancestors did not flinch as they watched the God of Poison return to his unharmed state again. In the thousands of clashes in the past hour, the battle ended up a draw. No wonder their Young Demon God referred to this God as an annoying foe.
"!!!" The Great Sage Black Dragon was taken aback.
He couldn’t detect the presence of any God within a radius of six thousand miles. So, he had no idea the God these eight ancient demon ancestors were referring to.
Looking down, he was shocked to find his people had been killed. Hundreds of experts from the Tiangong Sacred Land had been slaughtered, leaving no one alive.
Even the patriarch, Silver Python, had been killed without him knowing it. His roots in the mortal realm were destroyed.
"Grr..." The massive flying serpent growled as it was about to spit out a deadly poison to destroy everything in sight.
*Swoosh* *Crackle* *Crackle*
An ice arrow suddenly shot into the sky and struck the massive serpent’s head. The extreme ice froze the monster.
Several ice arrows released and froze the massive serpent monster into a large chunk of ice.
"Long An!" The Great Sage Black Dragon screamed in agony.
His trip to the lower realm went horribly wrong. He lost his beloved pet. None of his talented descendants were spared.
It was he who should have dominated everything! Everyone should submit to his Godly power. He was a real God, but everyone bullied him!?
There were still powerful Deities waiting to strike. If only his Godly power had not been restricted by the mortal world’s law, he would have already slaughtered all enemies with just a snap of his fingers.
*Bam!*
The massive serpent fell to the ground.
Ely then flew to the sky to fulfill Celestia’s wish to slay the suppressed God.
"You came from the upper realm to eliminate my Sacred Sakura, and you should also be prepared to be destroyed." Ely held Celestia in both hands.
"Young Demon God!" One of the ancient demon ancestors called out in excitement.
"Young Demon God!? So, you are Sacred Sakura’s backer!?" The Great Sage Black Dragon went berserk.
His 10th Rank Peak Stage power soared and shattered the spherical seal. He shot out with a blink and arrived immediately before the dark knight.
He drew his treasured sword forward and prepared his body to self-destruct. He was about to drag everyone with him to hell. However, the expected massive explosion didn’t occur.
His treasured sword shattered, and his arms melted like a candle in the fire. His vision suddenly became blurry, and the world seemed to spin abruptly. He could see his headless body still hovering in mid-air. It became minced meat and melted like slime.
It was just a simple soundless swing. His enemy’s sword was still in its sheath, but he was killed just like that.
His life flashed before his eyes. After thousands of years of hard work, he cultivated and reached the pinnacle of mortality. He finally managed to ascend to the upper realm eons ago. However, life in the upper realm was beyond terrible for him.
Despite his suffering for so many years as rogue cultivator, his descendants and roots in the mortal realm were threatened with extinction eons after his ascension. Therefore, he descended through the realm-breaking portal, which was opened by his descendants using a secret method he had left behind.
His path to escape. After thinking about it, it was much better to become invincible in the mortal realm instead of having to submit and be humble to so many stronger Immortals and Gods in the upper realm.
Yet, who would have thought that his ungrateful descendants would offend this kind of Demon God? It was not because Sacred Sakura tried to attack his sect and massacred his people, but because his sect offended this kind of hegemony.
He was slain in just one simple move, and his people were killed! It was a crushing defeat.
At that moment, he immediately tried to escape with his last card. He was killed, but it didn’t mean he was dead. His soul essence escaped before his body melted into black liquid.
As long as his soul could escape, he could still make a comeback and take revenge in the future.
However, a nine-tailed snow fox had been waiting on his escape path. His soul essence was captured.
"You’re not going anywhere. Freeze." Yuuki froze the God of Poison’s soul essence, but it struggled using vibration and slipped from her grasp.
"Oops. Please be careful, girl. We still need to squeeze all the information and secrets out of this bastard." Abraham immediately caught the half-frozen soul essence. He then sealed it inside a Mythical-tier gourd.
"Uh." Ely felt a sudden burst of energy came into her body. The God of Poison only died physically, but the urgent quest was considered finished.
Celestia was satisfied and still let her hold it as her weapon.
"You ended up miserable." Ely glanced at the ancient demon ancestors.
"Yeah, we got beaten up badly. Nevertheless, it’s an eye-opener to exchange moves with a God from the upper realm." Abraham approached to curry favor with the Young Demon God.
"What will you do with that God’s soul essence?"
"We’ll interrogate him when the ice melts."
"It’s only half frozen. That’s not ordinary ice. Just squeeze the useful things out of him. Can you do it flawlessly?"
"We ancient demons are very good at this matter. You don’t need to worry. We will get all the information from this God’s soul. Please give this task to us."
"Alright."
"But, what do you plan to do after we interrogate this thing?"
"I’ll think about it later."
"Understood."
Ely had a brief conversation with the ancient demon ancestors.
Somehow, the eight high-class clans were united and became a powerful force with a common interest. The Majin Demon Ancestor and Lich Demon Ancestor had already expressed their willingness to serve the Young Demon God using a demonic oath.
After that, Ely took out a healing potion and splashed it on the injured ancient demon ancestors.
The insane healing effect healed the ancient demon ancestors’ wounds.
Although they were not completely healed, their wounds were no longer life-threatening. They were half-immortals, but the God-tier poison was dangerous and tortured them from within.
The ancient demon ancestors then expressed their gratitude to the Young Demon God.
"By the name of our demon heart, we shall serve the Young Demon God as faithful vassals!"
The ancient demon clans voiced their oath to serve the Young Demon God. Be it Demon Kings, Demon Generals, Demon Elites, and even some random ancient demons who were somehow there voicing their oath.
They were amazed at how their Young Demon God had slain the God of the upper realm so easily.
"Then, now it’s the matters with the demons of the Demon Realm." Evelyn came closer to Yuuki.
"Yes. I’m still wondering about your plans." Yuuki glanced at Ely. Somehow, she could imagine Ely’s agitated expression as thousands of ancient demons began to worship the Young Demon God.
It was amusing because only Sacred Sakura’s people knew the Young Demon God’s secret. Beneath that dark knight armor, it wasn’t a tyrant demon but a troubled gentle girl.
*Rumble!*
The dark sky in the sky grew darker, and hundreds of red lightning flashed all around.
The God of Poison and his massive serpent had been defeated, but the tension intensified.
The terrible sense of oppression suddenly hit everyone within a two-hundred-kilometer radius. A massive red magic circle appeared on the ground, spurting black flames and fiery red lava hundreds of meters into the sky. A colossal terrifying creature emerged from it.
The colossal black dragon as big as a mountain stared at the ancient demons near the realm’s portal. Its red eyes blazed like fire, and the red lines on its body glowed brightly like lava lanes.
The temperature immediately rose drastically, and the ground around that colossal black dragon instantly became super-hot lava.
*Bam!*
The colossal magma black dragon trampled the frozen serpent. It was like a big lizard stepping on a worm.
"Roar!" The colossal black dragon roared, shaking the world upon its arrival.
"Oh my, something fun is happening here~ You won’t mind if I join, right... my old friends?" A mesmerizing, sexy devil girl stood on the colossal magma black dragon’s head, spreading her black angel-like wings wide.
