Even though Ao Ji had ordered a few top elites to bring the would-be Emperor to the extraterritorial battlefield, the atmosphere in the Demon Slayer Grand Hall was still strange.
The strange thing was not just that Ao Ji ignored the deaths of the hundreds of disciples.
Instead, it was that the dozens of ancient and modern almighties who came with Ao Ji ignored the deaths of their direct descendants.
That was because the young people kneeling at the foot of the mountain were the direct descendants of these old fellows.
Suddenly, Elder Zhong had an illusion — it was as if these old perverts had come to Devil Cliff not to help each other, but to kill their direct descendants.
Shaking his head to dispel this extremely unrealistic guess, Elder Zhong was about to say something when he suddenly noticed something strange.
"Strange, their expressions …"
Apart from Ao Ji, the faces of the ancient and modern almighties who had placed righteousness before family showed no remorse, pain, or even sorrow. Instead, they were forcibly suppressing their joy and even beaming with joy …
"Cough, cough!"
Ao Ji coughed, and the expressions of the almighties immediately became calm again. It was so fast that Elder Zhong thought what he had just seen might have been an illusion.
After thinking for a while, he asked the question in his mind.
"I wonder why all of you are doing this … Could it be that there is a secret? Please enlighten me, Senior. "
Ao Ji thought for a while and said, "The successor of the Evil Emperor."
The almighties in the Demon Slayer Grand Hall were stunned at first, but they soon came to a realization.
Elder Zhong was even more relieved. He laughed and said, "So, all of you are here to kill the successor of the Evil Emperor!"
"The successor of the Evil Emperor, the Desire to Kill All Realms." No one could hear the mockery in Ao Ji's words. "Although we are from the ancient times, we live under the Nine Heavens. How can we disobey? What do you think, Fellow Daoist Zhong? "
"That's right, that's right. Senior, your sincerity really makes me feel ashamed. However …" To show his concern, Elder Zhong changed the topic and said with a hint of worry, "This successor of the Evil Emperor is quite powerful …"
"Oh?"
All the almighties raised their eyebrows at the same time!
"Very powerful?"
"Let's hear it!"
"Wahaha, I haven't heard such a happy thing for a long time!"
"Yeah, what this idiot is trying to say is that the stronger the successor of the Evil Emperor is, the greater our contribution!"
…
The Demon Slaying Palace, which should have been completely occupied by the matter of the Seed Demon, turned into a meeting where Elder Zhong told stories about how powerful the successor of the Evil Emperor was because of the arrival of Ao Ji and the other powerful beings …
The last team from this realm had also joined the hunt for the Seed Demons.
This team of hundreds of people came in all shapes and sizes, with some strong and some weak.
The only thing they had in common was that they were confused.
However, they, who were favored by the heavens, had no idea that when they received the strict order to rush to Abyss Cliff, a seed that was waiting to explode had already been planted in their souls.
What was entrusted to this seed was not the unparalleled fortune of a Chosen One, a Mighty Cultivator, or a family, but the most beautiful imagination of all the Mighty Cultivators who had witnessed Le Feng's appearance.
As the Devouring Cang that was coincidentally chosen by the Golden-Winged Roc Clan, he did not care about these things.
The only thing he cared about was becoming stronger.
Among the various motivations for him to become stronger, there was one that came from several hundred years ago, when he was still in the Three Realms.
"Xie Tian, how strong are you now?"
Even Xie Tian himself was not sure about this.
The reason why he could not even be sure of his own battle prowess was because of the aura of hope that had suddenly appeared in his body after he had walked one round in the blood coffin.
Without this aura, he was certain that the difference in battle prowess between him and Luo Zheng was at least half.
In other words, he could only be on par with the little Luo Zheng that he had created.
But if he used the aura of hope …
Thinking back to the first time Luo Zheng had fled …
He said to Tung Mang, who had just doubted his battle prowess, "Actually, I'm quite strong."
Tung Mang took a deep breath and resisted the urge to strangle Xie Tian. He patted Xie Tian's shoulder and said earnestly, "Don't say such things in the future. Otherwise, if lightning strikes you, do you think I will help you?"
The members of Pengju Battle Team roared with laughter at their captain's words.
"Remember this laughter as well," Tung Mang said. "This laughter is a reflection of your battle prowess. If you want to say such things in the future, think of this laughter."
Xie Tian was somewhat speechless. He did not argue and only muttered to himself, "Then I can only slay the demon myself …"
Tung Mang, who was close by, accidentally overheard this and stumbled.
"I have never admired anyone in my life." He looked seriously at Xie Tian. "Pang Hao, you are the first!"
"Thank you …"
"Damn it, how can I thank you?"
"Because I feel that you are quite right."
"Pfft …"
… …
There were many battle teams like Pengju Battle Team that had rushed to the battlefield.
But none of them had it as easy as Pengju Battle Team.
Almost every battle broke out in a flash.
It was either the demons lying in ambush, the Blood Disciple of Sea Burial Team aggressively provoking them, or the Black Cliff Battle Team steadily fighting, forcing the other two forces to fight.
The intensity of these countless battles had completely surpassed the so-called demon slaying battle.
When they discovered that even the Azure Cloud Heart Examining Array and the Purple Yang Life Transformation Array could not slay the demon as easily as before, they were even more motivated than before.
As the weakest of the three forces, the Black Cliff Battle Team actually had a slight advantage at the start of the chaotic battle.
But no matter who had the advantage, the seed demon was the only one that remained on the path of invincibility.
In ten days, the seed demon had traveled thirty-six million miles and devoured more than a million living beings.
In the eyes of the upper echelons of the three forces, this amount of devouring was already the standard for the seed demon to break through the chaos and truly emerge.
But as the scouts reported, the upper echelons of the three forces frowned again.
"There is still half left?"
"How is that possible!"
"Don't tell me they need the lives of a million more living beings?"
"The Sea Burial Demons do not have that many people. Do they want the Black Cliff Battle Team to die?"
… …
But when Luo Zheng's words reached the Demon Slayer Main Hall, the irascible atmosphere instantly changed.
"The seed demon was previously injured …" Elder Zhong muttered the contents of Luo Zheng's message in disbelief. "Moreover, he and Mo Ta have discussed that in order to break through the chaos, the number of casualties will still depend on their own strength. What do you all think?"
Just as the Demon Slayer Main Hall gritted their teeth and agreed to Luo Zheng and Mo Ta's plan, and sent 60% of the battle teams that had been acting as reserve teams to the Black Cliff Battle Field …
The Pengju Battle Team had finally met their match.
"Azure Cloud Heart Examining Array, activate!"
Tun Mang's expression was grave as he sized up the demon that had suddenly appeared.
It was not because he could sense how strong his opponent was, but because his opponent appeared to be injured …
The greatest problem was that the Pengju Battle Team was not fully formed.
"But now, if we don't fight, we will die!" Tun Mang shouted and pointed at the demon. "Follow me and kill!"
The soldiers were stunned by his words.
Because in all the battles that Tun Mang had commanded, the first sentence he had said was, "Attack!"
After being stunned for a moment, they completely understood how serious this battle was.
Although it was a little tragic, the Pengju Battle Team's fighting spirit still surged, causing Xie Tian to instinctively speak up to encourage them.
"Do your best. If you can't, there's still me."
As Xie Tian said these words, which nearly caused the Pengju Battle Team's morale to collapse, he continued to clash with the seed demon.
However, this time, the two sides were testing each other out. It was no longer one-sided. Instead, they were evenly matched.
