Chapter 185: Forbidden! Forbidden! Forbidden!

Chapter 185: Forbidden! Forbidden! Forbidden!

"At last! Open the coffin! Fire the cannons! Blast away!" Blue Star exclaimed with exhilaration.

Red Moon rolled his eyes. He'd been waiting for this moment. He didn't even bother to look where they were. As the lid of the copper coffin swung open, he retched, spewing out the searing wind fire tribulation that had been simmering in his mouth!

BOOM BOOM BOOM! In an instant, hundreds of thousands of storm dragons and a million flaming mammoths descended upon a dark continent!

"Where are we?" Red Moon's vision darkened. Why did it feel like there were so many living things ahead? It thought they were supposed to hold off until they reached a deserted land!

"Demon Continent!" Blue Star chuckled.

"Holy smokes!" Red Moon's eyes bulged. "So much demon milk gone! It's over, oh no!"

Blue Star, sweating, said with a wry smile, "And here I thought you cared about the lives of the demons!"

"They're just little ants created by Creator, worthless without their milk!" Red Moon scoffed disdainfully. "But, won't this damage the realm's Source Point?"

"Ruin it? As if the Source Point can be damaged by a mere wind fire tribulation," Blue Star said, looking around with a sinister laugh. "Of course, the demons on it are doomed!"The initial posting of this chapter occurred via Ñøv€l-B!n.

As they were speaking, the Great Merciful Tribulation struck the land of the Demon Continent! The Demon Continent was undoubtedly larger than the pocket universe of the Heavenly Realm and far less dense. Still, when the wind fire tsunami hit countless demon mountains and caves, it unleashed an apocalypse!

BOOM! Mountains shattered, rivers evaporated, the earth split, and volcanoes erupted with molten lava! Billions of demons, in their confusion, were as fragile as paper, instantly pulverized by the Great Merciful Tribulation. Their screams were silenced before they could even emerge.

ROAR! A hundred thousand storm dragons and a million stampeding flame mammoths swept across the Demon Continent's surface, turning any gathering of life into pools of blood and mountains of corpses.

Those demons, who had developed intelligence and even a societal structure akin to humans, perished in droves. The destruction came swiftly and left just as quickly.

The destructive force of the Great Merciful Tribulation plowed through the rugged land of the Demon Continent, destroying a third of its demon mountains and caves, slaughtering billions of demons, then vanished like smoke. Where it passed, only dusty mountains, smoky ruins, and roads of blood and corpses remained.

In the swath of destruction wrought by the tribulation, few demons survived. From a high vantage point, a third of the Demon Continent had turned into a bloody hell.

As Blue Star had said, it was the demons who perished. The devastating force of the tribulation couldn't shake the very foundation of the Demon Continent; even as the surface cracked, the inner embryonic structure of the world remained intact.

"I've done a great service for Creator!" Red Moon exclaimed excitedly. "Although I don't hate demons, killing them is exhilarating!"

"Let it be. As long as Creator lives as a human, we'll destroy whatever he hates," Blue Star cackled.

"I feel kind of sleepy," Red Moon's eyelids drooped.

"I'm feeling it too," Blue Star's eyes rolled back.

"This time, I'm really drained..." Red Moon gasped.

"More drained than Creator, after a night of drinking Daughter's Red...!"

As the two beasts muttered, the ancient copper coffin shrank continuously, tumbling as it did.

"No worries, Creator bet 100,000 Saint Stones on us. We'll make a killing..."

Eventually, they plummeted back to the Heavenly Realm, transforming into a black brick.

BAM! Yun Xiao, still in a daze, took a hit from the brick on his forehead, dizzy. He quickly picked up the brick, which now appeared dull and lifeless, like all its vitality had been sapped.

"Brothers..." Yun Xiao's heart ached. "You died so tragically."

Finally, his chance had come! Up to now, he had only acquired three War of Immortal Jades, with the rest claimed by Yun Xiao. Now, they could finally showcase their prowess while Yun Xiao was preoccupied with his tribulation.

"Alright." Yun Xiao settled himself at the back, sitting cross-legged to confront the wind fire tribulation engulfing him, tempering his flesh, bones, and magic power.

Meanwhile, Nangong Xu, Chen Jin, Stray Dog, and Zhao Xiaotang braced themselves for battle.

RUMBLE! The first square reactivated its array, thrusting them back into stark reality. Their new adversaries soon materialized before Chen Jin and the others—five demonic shadows!

"Such potent demonic aura!" Their expressions shifted at the sight.

Amidst the swirling mists of miasma, those five sinister, enigmatic shadows appeared. They looked at Yun Xiao and his companions without a trace of fear, only a cold, cruel sneer.

These demons might not have known how Yun Xiao had defeated You Qing and the others, but his high ranking on the Ascension Board was visible to all. The actual fights in the Cycle Battle were relatively difficult to observe compared to the Arena Champion Battle.

"Did you four give all your War of Immortal Jades to him?" a gaunt man with green hair sneered.

Chen Jin's eyes narrowed as he stared at him. "Green Peacock, Hanging Corpse Pillar, Black Vine, Giant Toothed Rat, Dead Frog..."

They recognized this group of demons!

"Apart from the ten Saint Realm participants in the Arena Champion Battle, they must be the Demon Continent's strongest team!"

For instance, the Green Peacock was none other than the elder brother of the Peacock Prince, Kong Ming!

If Yun Xiao weren’t undergoing his tribulation, Chen Jin and the rest of the team wouldn't feel pressured. But now, not only did they have to fight, they also had to protect Yun Xiao. They couldn't help but feel the weight of a mountain bearing down on them.

"Brothers..."

Chen Jin looked back at Stray Dog, Zhao Xiaotang, and Nangong Xu. All of their eyes ablaze with fervor.

"For our human race! We fight until death!"

▬ι══????✧⚰️✧????══ι▬

Above the Demon Continent, where the Great Merciful Tribulation had ceased, the void became exceptionally malleable. The world barrier was as thin as paper. Whirlpools began to form, and behind them, faint glimmers of sword light streaked across!

Beneath this zone was a region blanketed with countless mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

"Forbidden! Forbidden! Forbidden!" The broken bodies of demons, those still possessing mouths, started to move, chanting a singular word. The entire bloody hell with numerous corpses wriggled like a mass of worms, converging towards a mountain dyed in blood. A closer look revealed it wasn't a mountain of dirt but one of flesh and bones!

CLICK CLICK CLICK! The fragmented skeletons connected piece by piece—rib bones to skull bones, tail bones... It looked like a chaotic mess. Yet, it was eerily sinister. Chunks of flesh forcibly fused together, forming tentacle-like arms of mangled bodies, flailing wildly!

Suddenly, with a thunderous roar, the flesh mountain sprouted two legs of mangled corpses and stood upright!

HUM! Hundreds of thousands of demonic eyes converged at the mountain's peak, forming a massive, twisted compound eye! This eye was twisted, eerie, and blood-soaked!

"Earthly grudges... endless earthly grudges... resentment... death... hehehehe..."

Its gaze, piercing through clouds, locked onto the pocket universe of the Heavenly Realm.

"The Demon Continent is a land of suffering... Never a home. The Divine Continent, with its surge of immortal aura, is the ideal haven. So, the dream of generations of demon races should finally reflect in reality... Hehehehe..."

Countless fragmented demon mouths came together, forming a vast, gaping maw, laughing while chanting a name. "Forbidden!"
