"It has begun."
Looking at the rolling dark clouds in the sky outside the window, the first demon god Heller said in a low voice.
He stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back.
As far as the eye could see, there were pillars of holy light piercing through the sky.
The pillars of light were far away in the horizon, cutting through the firmament and casting a golden light on the distant horizon.
Densely packed golden dots could be seen falling from the sky into the dark world.
They were countless angels and petitioners.
The demons in the plane looked at the light in the distant sky uneasily, restless and fearful.
Even though they were far away, they could still vaguely sense the sacred and majestic aura.
However, looking at the army of the gods of faith descending on the Hell Plane, the first demon god Heller's gaze gradually deepened.
The light was very far from the core of the plane, at most the edge of the entire seventh layer of the plane.
In his perception, an earth-shattering battle had already broken out at the edge of the plane.
Although the seven layers of Hell were different in size and were not completely vertically distributed, the core area was ultimately connected in a line.
Because of that, if the gods wanted to attack the seven major Hell Planes at the same time, apart from the first layer of Hell, they had to attack from the edges of the other six major planes.
This was also a tacit understanding among the gods in the past wars of gods and demons.
In the past wars of gods and demons, the gods would first launch an all-out attack, then after gaining a certain advantage in a certain plane, they would concentrate their forces to attack that particular Hell Plane.
In the past, this core plane that became the main battlefield was the first layer of Hell that was closest to the upper world, and its area was the most vast. The seventh layer of Hell had the most subsidiary planes.
However, the armies of the gods could not completely occupy the Hell Plane.
Because the deeper they went into the Hell Plane, the stronger the power of the abyss.
Unless the gods came in person, it would be difficult for the petitioners' army to hold on.
And there was the risk of dying in the abyss, so … the gods could only reclaim part of the plane worlds that had not completely fallen into the abyss and pull them out.
Then, after a few years of stalemate with the demons, they would retreat.
The abyss could not be completely eliminated, and could only prevent the plane from falling to a certain extent and exhaust the power of the demons of the abyss as much as possible.
Only the legendary greater Divine Powers could possibly destroy the abyss.
Only by breaking through to greatness and becoming a higher existence could one's divine power evolve further and obtain absolute suppression of the Abyssal power.
This was a fact that the upper echelons of the Pantheon had understood ever since the First War of Gods and Infernals began …
Of course, the demon gods who were favored by the abyss were also aware of this fact.
As the representatives of the Abyss, their goal was to pull all the upper planes into the Abyss, turning the entire World of Segers into the Abyss …
It was also because he knew that the gods could not truly break through the Infernal Plane that Hellaer's gaze remained calm despite seeing the endless army of petitioners descending upon his plane.
"Everyone, have you finished building the fortresses in your respective planes?"
He turned around and looked at the other figures in the hall.
They were the other Abyssal Demon Gods.
They were still sitting around the devil's round table, but they were no longer solid bodies, but illusory shadows.
The war had already begun and the fiendcelestials had already left. The ones left behind were only phantoms conjured by everyone for the sake of communication.
"Of course. Apart from Azazel, that idiot who was sealed away, all the other Infernal Planes have completed their fortresses."
The Second Demon God Samael sneered.
"Then we'll proceed according to the original plan."
Hellaer said in a deep voice.
"The gods won't expect us to force the demons to build dense fortresses this time. Once their attacks in the various planes are obstructed, they'll definitely shift their main attack direction to the weakest Infernal Plane."
"Beelzebub, once the gods shift their target to the Infernal Plane of the First Infernal Plane, you'll lead the demon army of the Second Infernal Plane and the reinforcements from the various Infernal Planes of the First Infernal Plane to assist in the defense of the Infernal Plane. Stall the main forces of the gods there."
Hellaer looked at one of the black phantoms and ordered expressionlessly.
Hearing Hellaer's words, the consciousness avatars of the other Demon Gods all cast mocking gazes at the phantoms.
The phantoms snorted coldly and said with some dissatisfaction,
"Hellaer."
"You bastard, do you want my army to be cannon fodder for your attack on the World of Segers?!"
"You're overthinking it, Beelzebub."
Hellaer shook his head.
He paused for a moment, looked at the sky outside the window, and said in a deep voice,
"Although Azazel is a little weak, he has many demon armies under his command. As the Demon God closest to the Upper Plane, he has accepted many fallen intelligent creatures …"
"I'm asking you to stall the gods. Don't you know how to make good use of his demon army?"
Hearing Hellaer's words, the phantoms gaze softened a little.
But soon, he sneered again and continued.
"How are we going to distribute the spoils of war? Don't tell me you bastards will be honest and give me the best place after conquering the World of Segers. "
This time, without waiting for Hellaer to answer, the Fifth Demon God Leviathan spoke.
"Beelzebub, haven't you always wanted to control the First Infernal Plane?"
Hearing Leviathan's words, Beelzebub's gaze flickered slightly.
The seven major planes of Infernal Plane had different areas, and they grew larger from top to bottom.
As the two smallest planes of Infernal Plane, the First Infernal Plane and Second Infernal Plane combined were not even as large as Leviathan's Third Infernal Plane.
During the time when Azazel was sealed, the Sixth Demon God Beelzebub had launched many Plane Wars on the First Infernal Plane.
Unfortunately, although Azazel wasn't around, the first layer of Hell was closer to the Upper Plane and had more planes attached to it. There were simply too many demons swarming around, so Beelzebub didn't have the advantage.
But now, hearing Leviathan's words, Beelzebub was a little tempted.
"Hehe, are you so willing to let me devour the core of one more Infernal Plane?"
The black phantoms sneered.
Samuel sneered.
"Beelzebub, if you really complete the mission, so what if you have one less Infernal Plane and one more powerful Demon God? But I'm afraid that even if you unify the two Infernal Planes, you won't be able to stop the gods … "
"You're looking down on me!"
Beelzebub snorted angrily.
Then, he glared at Samuel's avatar and continued to sneer.
"Samuel, when I get the Origin Core of the First Infernal Plane, the first thing I'll do is have a good fight with you!"
"Heh, I'll be waiting for you in the World of Segers."
Samuel said proudly.
"Hmph!"
Beelzebub snorted and dispersed his avatar.
After he left, Hellier's gaze swept across the other Demon Gods again and finally stopped on the Third Demon God Mammon and the Fourth Demon God Berial.
"Mammon, Berial, you're in charge of the overall defense of the Seven Infernal Planes and assist in the attack on the World of Segers."
"If Beelzebub can't hold on, you'll send the demons of the affiliated planes to support him."
"Heh, if that's the case, will we also have a chance to get the Origin Core of the First Infernal Plane?"
The two Demon Gods sneered.
"That depends on your negotiation with Beelzebub."
Hellier said.
The two Demon Gods looked at each other, snorted softly, and nodded reluctantly.
Then, Hellier looked at the remaining two Demon Gods, the Second Demon God Samuel and the Fifth Demon God Leviathan.
"The two of you …"
"The three of us are the only three Great Divine Powers in the Abyss, and the three Infernal Planes that we control are also the three strongest …"
"Whether we can break through the World of Segers this time depends on our strength."
"The Nirvana Wasteland is the closest Abyssal Plane to the World of Segers. After the Gods' attention is focused on the First Infernal Plane, we'll launch an attack on the World of Segers from there!"
With that said, Hellyer looked at Leviathan.
"Leviathan, are there any problems with the remaining planar passages?"
Leviathan nodded lightly.
"The remaining planar passages are even more hidden and haven't been discovered by the Gods, but … I sense that the Life Goddess has sent out her army of Chosen Ones to attack the Nirvana Wasteland."
"Are there many?"
Hellier asked.
"Not many, probably less than a hundred thousand."
Leviathan shook his head.
"What's the fuss about less than a hundred thousand? Hmph, it's just the Life Goddess. We can use this opportunity to get rid of her army! I don't believe those elves can keep resurrecting indefinitely! "
Samuel said with a gloomy gaze.
Hellier glanced at him and said, "Don't be careless.
If I'm not wrong, the Life Goddess's army of Chosen Ones should have some kind of mysterious connection with her. Otherwise … it would be impossible to resurrect from the dead.
"However, the energy in the world is conserved. Even if she has the ability to resurrect from the dead, her army definitely has some kind of limit, as well as some fatal flaws that we don't understand yet …
"Otherwise, if our new friend's information is to be believed, she, who has been assimilated by the power of faith, would have unified the World of Segers long ago.
"From this point of view, if we want to completely destroy her army, we still have to destroy her herself …"
With that, Hellier turned his gaze to Leviathan.
Leviathan's eyes flashed as he understood what Hellier wanted to ask.
"Don't worry …
"I'll make her stay.
"We've already made a plan … According to the Life Goddess' personality and faith, even if she knows that it's a conspiracy against her, she'll definitely take the bait."
With that, a hint of greed flashed across Leviathan's eyes again.
"I'm still quite curious about the nature priesthood. In a sense, my sea priesthood is also related to it. I'm very curious about what kind of wonderful changes will occur after the two are combined …"
"That's your own business. I'm not interested in the priesthood of the Life Goddess. As long as you get rid of her, you two can deal with the life priesthood or the nature priesthood yourselves."
Hellier said.
With that, he changed the topic.
"However … having an eyesore hanging around in front of me all the time will affect my mood …"
"Leviathan, if possible, send those elves in the Desolation Wilderness back to the kingdom of their true gods."
…
With the start of the God-Devil War, several demon gods in hell began to act according to the plan.
Under the leadership of various abyss myths, an army composed of demons and monsters began to gather at the edge of the various hell planes. They entered the towering demon fortresses to resist the attacks of the petitioners and the oracles of the gods.
Countless petitioners' legions flickered with the brilliance of divine power. They were like a golden river in the darkness. They tilted down and collided with the abyssal army composed of demons and monsters on the ground.
Accompanied by sacred hymns, battles broke out in various places.
The angels were chanting, and the totem saints were roaring.
The petitioners shouted the honorific names of the gods, their faces filled with fanaticism.
Under the leadership of the oracles, they engaged in battle with the ferocious demons.
Golden blood splattered, and illusory figures shattered.
But soon, more petitioners, angels, and golden-armored warriors filled in the gaps and joined the battle.
And on the side of the abyss, under the illumination of the holy light, the demons fell like wheat being cut. Purification …
But soon, even more abyssal armies surged up like a black tide.
The edges of each hell became an ocean of light and darkness, and endless battles began.
There were even smaller subsidiary abyss planes one after another. They were constantly collapsing and breaking apart in the battle between the abyss myths and the oracles of the righteous gods …
The entire edge of the abyss was like the end of the world.
At the same time, at the junction of the second layer of hell and the first layer of hell.
The Sixth Demon God Beelzebub left the second layer of hell with the abyssal army that he was proud of, and headed towards the first layer of hell.
An army of millions of demons roared and roared. They clustered around the abyss myths that had revealed their huge bodies. Under the leadership of Beelzebub, they entered the battlefield of the first layer of hell.
Beelzebub rode his own abyssal demon dragon that had the strength of a demigod, and his posture was arrogant.
There was a hint of greed in his eyes.
He had been coveting the first layer of hell for a long time.
Not only that, he also coveted the demon army that belonged to Azazel.
The war between gods and demons was an opportunity.
Azazel was sealed by the Goddess of Life, and the entire first layer of hell was in a fierce battle. This was the best opportunity for him to expand his forces!
Compared to being destroyed by the gods … the demons in the first layer of hell would probably be very sensible and throw themselves into his arms!
With such thoughts in mind, Beelzebub couldn't wait to enter the first layer of hell.
The battle between the demons and the petitioners had already begun. The sky of the entire first layer of hell had been completely occupied by golden light gates.
The petitioners and oracles, whose bodies were shining with holy light, were like rain, constantly pouring out of the light gates in the sky and pouring down.
However, when Beelzebub looked at the ground of the first layer of hell, the abyssal army that he expected to be larger than his own army did not appear.
Originally, he would have felt his scalp go numb when he saw Azazel's demon army that had a total number of tens of millions. At this moment, it seemed that there was only less than one-third of it …
They … were being suppressed and beaten by the true god's army of petitioners, fleeing in a sorry state.
Seeing this scene, Beelzebub, who had just been thinking about how to annex Azazel's army, froze.
His gaze was a little blank.
"Where are Azazel's demons?"
