Chapter 354: 68: Human Race Catastrophe, Demon Emperor Takes Action

Translator: 549690339

Just as Zhao Huai and Yin Nanyu reached a deal, outside Anxi Prefecture, the great battle between the demon clan of the Primitive World and human cultivators was about to commence once again.

These days, since Zhao Huai left Anxi Prefecture, the actions of the Primitive World had aroused the common anger of all cultivators in Anxi Prefecture. Not only did they play, curse, and humiliate human cultivators outside the city gates every day, but they also swallowed cultivators whole as food in front of everyone’s eyes.

Although it wasn’t as exaggerated as disemboweling them, the dignity of the human race was still trampled upon.

At the same time, human cultivators, regardless of gender, were tied to stone pillars above a sea of fire. Once the designated time arrived, and the assigned culprits failed to appear, the demons below would roast and eat the people.

A large boiling pot bubbled in front of the captured human cultivators, the faces of practically everyone were ashen, and they all felt certain of their impending doom, without any hope for their lives.

This scene made the geniuses of the various sects feel heartbroken.

For the past hundred years, when had the disciples of the great sects ever witnessed such crazy behavior?

Hundreds and thousands of cultivators have already realized the vast gap between themselves and the Primitive World.

They recognized the seriousness of the disparity in the offensive and defensive situation.

If the human cultivators of the future do not take today’s events as a humiliation, they will always be oppressed by the Primitive World.

If they really have the will to fight, they should stand up and engage in a life-and-death battle with the demons!

Therefore, the current fighting spirit of the human geniuses has risen to an unprecedented level!

Gu Tianji, the Senior Disciple of the Eternal Taoist Temple, and Cai Yuxiang of the Heavenly Star Sacred Sect, the two young leaders, decided to launch a general offensive against the demons, with several great sects joining in, including many with ancient inheritances.

Their goal was to rescue the captured human cultivators and strike back at the arrogant demons, making the Primitive World pay the price.

To this end, Anxi Prefecture had summoned a hundred Elders in the Rebirth Realm who had been secretly conscripted from the twelve cities, and several ancestors in the Metamorphosis Realm from major sects also joined, all ready to deal with the various Demon Kings.

Among them, the top power in the battlefield of Anxi Prefecture was not the Sect Master of the Taique Sacred Sect but the Abbot Lingyin from the Little Lingyin Temple, an elderly man with white hair and a monk’s robe, holding a Zen staff and standing atop the city walls of Anxi Prefecture, with cultivation beyond the Metamorphosis Realm.

At the city gate.

Gu Tianji took a qi and blood pill and other pills such as the Nine Dragons Qi-gathering Pill and the Clearing Mind Creation Pill to boost his strength and stack buffs since a hard battle was upcoming.

His tall figure, standing at the city gate, exuded unstoppable momentum.

Gu Tianji’s eyes were sharp, holding a flying sword and focusing on the demon army a hundred miles away.

Cai Yuxiang, Zi Yun, Chen Jianshu, and other geniuses stood on his sides, dressed in martial attire with protective armor and equipment in place.

Zi Yun held a purple slim sword in her slender hand, dressed in a light purple palace dress. Her clear eyes looked at the thick Demon Cloud in the sky and said, “Since we have launched the offensive, the six-armed Demon Ape and the Fiery Flood Dragon Emperor will definitely not stand idly by. Even with the help of the various ancestors, we cannot be careless.”

“Although there are many Demon Kings among the demons, we also have our own trump cards.”

Gu Tianji remained calm and took out a white porcelain bottle. He divided red pills from it into each person’s hands and explained:

“These are Break-Prohibition Pills made by a fourth-grade alchemist from Medicine Pill Valley, which can temporarily grant us the fighting power of the Rebirth Realm for the duration of three incense sticks’ time, to be used to save one’s life if necessary.”

All the young geniuses present nodded solemnly and put away the pills.”Once the war begins, life and death are unpredictable, and the future of Central State will rely heavily on all of you.”

Gu Tianji took a deep breath and said solemnly.

“Let’s go!”

“Boom!”

Suddenly, the Demon Race’s camp was filled with loud rumbling sounds, and the ground trembled violently. Many beasts saw a wave of dark shadows quickly flying across the sky from the distance like a mountain collapsing under the sea. Their speed was incredibly fast.

“Bang!”

Hundreds of fiery boulders fell from the sky, smashing onto the ground and landing in the Demon Race’s camp, catching them off guard. The yellow sand formed numerous black, charred pits, and thousands of beasts were hit by the force of the massive stones, their limbs flying about as they turned into dead bodies.

Cries of pain from the beasts kept ringing out.

After transforming into human form, the Flood Dragon Emperor’s face was expressionless. He simply raised his hand slightly, and the sect elder who had been fighting seemed to lose control of his body and was drawn towards him.

The elder’s neck was tightly gripped, and he could not struggle. A powerful spiritual force surged into his mind, causing his Rebirth Realm soul to shatter, directly falling.

“Your Majesty, the Demon Emperor...”

The surrounding demon army stopped advancing respectfully.

The Flood Dragon Emperor glanced indifferently at the severely injured green-armored giant scorpion, lifted a hand, and instantly turned the monster, along with its demonic core, into a bloody mist. He opened his mouth wide and swallowed all the bloody mist, smacking his lips.

“Useless trash.”

He then turned his gaze to Gu Tianji and the others, sneered and said, “So, you are the strongest among the younger generation in this land? You’re too weak. The human race is really going backward. I’m disappointed. Compared to the era of Ancestor Yan Zu, it seems the human race really has no future.”

Upon hearing this, many cultivators were infuriated, believing the other party to be too arrogant. However, the opponent’s strength was apparent, and even cultivators in the Rebirth Realm could not match him head-on.

Could any being below the Metamorphosis Stage contend against a Demon Emperor?

Gu Tianji’s face darkened. He swallowed a Break-Prohibition Pill, and his strength instantly surged, elevating him to the Rebirth Realm.

A sword quickly thrust forward!

Many cultivators simultaneously launched their attacks, each condensing their strongest moves. Magic power continuously circulated, converging their power at its peak.

The layered force of the human cultivator’s sea of strength reverberated in the sky.

In response, the Flood Dragon Emperor sneered and stretched out his strong right arm.

“Whoosh!”

Red radiance flickered on his arm, and ancient vein-like patterns layered on top of one another. At the moment he struck,

Roaring dragon cries resounded throughout the area for thousands of miles!

Hundreds of black dragon-shaped shadows fell from the sky, colliding with the white beams of light released by numerous human cultivators.

Bang!

The force unleashed by the Flood Dragon Emperor instantly destroyed the beam of light, and the red radiance fell to the ground, erasing the sand dunes and leaving a “U”-shaped mountain range in its place. The surrounding space trembled and distorted.

All the cultivators’ magical weapons turned into useless scrap metal and fell from the sky.

The aftershocks of the battle spread out, causing the meridians of many weaker cultivators to rupture and die on the spot.

Gu Tianji’s life and death were uncertain, his whereabouts unknown.

At the same time, more than ten Demon Kings each led their respective races and charged towards Anxi Prefecture, effectively cutting off the escape route for human cultivators.

“Thump!”

“Thump!”

The six-armed demon ape with a colossal body as large as a Devil Mountain appeared on the battlefield once again. Its three heads and six arms struck fear into the hearts of those who looked upon it.

As the Fiery Flood Dragon Emperor stood with his hands behind his back and floated in the air, he looked down at the numerous cultivators and said indifferently, “Since you are all seeking death, today shall be the day your human race perishes. Slaughter all the human cultivators in Anxi Prefecture and turn them into a sculpture as a display of the might of my demon emperor in the Primitive World.”

Upon hearing this, countless savage beasts surrounded and advanced from all sides.

“You evil beasts, don’t be arrogant! Does our race really have no one to stand against you?”

A giant hand appeared in the void, like a five-fingered mountain, covering the Fiery Flood Dragon Emperor.

An elderly human ancestor appeared in the sky, his origins unknown but undoubtedly possessing a powerful Metamorphosis Stage strength.

However, the Fiery Flood Dragon Emperor did not react. He merely dodged the attack with a flash of his body and said indifferently, “The general trend is irreversible; what can you alone do to change it?”

As he spoke, dozens of pairs of scarlet eyes flickered in the demon clouds in the sky.
