"I'm finally back!"
After Xiaolong's figure appeared from the void, he gently turned his eyes and muttered.
As the best brother of Lu Shaoyou, the Lord of the Three Thousand Sectors, the two had gone to a strange place many years ago to search for some secrets beyond the known worlds.
However, when he appeared again, he was alone. Lu Shaoyou was nowhere to be seen.
"The situation in the Eighteen Levels of Hell must have reached a critical state. If I don't act now, I'm afraid it will exceed the original plan!"
Xiaolong muttered to himself as he rubbed his nose.
Before leaving this place, he and Lu Shaoyou had a plan to send a large number of experts from the 33 Heavens and the Three Thousand Sectors into the Eighteen Levels of Hell.
According to the original plan, the two brothers should go together and enter to begin the next step of progress.
If everything went smoothly, and Du Shaofu's progress steadily caught up, it would be time to end it all and completely kill the Demon Lord!
Otherwise, if things continued to drag on, it would be disadvantageous for the experts who entered the Eighteen Levels of Hell!
However, the situation had taken a huge turn that exceeded Xiaolong and Lu Shaoyou's expectations.
"I really didn't expect that there would be such a place outside of this world. It's simply unbelievable!"
Xiaolong looked back as if he had seen through where he had come from.
In the time that he and Lu Shaoyou had disappeared, they had seen many things that they had never seen before.
At that time, Xiaolong knew that there were other places outside of the 33 Heavens, the Three Thousand Sectors, and the Eighteen Levels of Hell.
That place seemed to be the starting point of everything. It was the origin of all things. It was also like the other side of the world, the end of the Heavenly Way!
Back then, they had gone to that place to find the creator of the Three Thousand Sectors. At the same time, they had obtained more information.
"I hope Boss can succeed as soon as possible and reach the peak. Once he succeeds, it will be much easier to deal with the Demon Lord! However, I'm afraid time will be a little tight! "
However, not long after Lu Shaoyou had arrived there, he began to comprehend something and went into seclusion.
To an expert at the peak of the Dao Attainment Realm, this period of closed door cultivation was extremely important because it was related to whether he would be able to break through in the end and step into that supreme realm!
Xiaolong didn't dare to disturb him, but he was still worried about the matters of the outside world. He could only leave by himself and return to the 33 Heavens and 18 Layers of Hell.
It was time for him to intervene in such an intense situation!
"All of the seals in the eighteen layers of hell have been broken. The Demon Lord must have entered the eighteenth layer of hell. It seems that the situation is imminent. We cannot afford to be careless!"
Xiaolong suddenly frowned and muttered to himself.
Through the power of the seal outside the eighteen layers of Hell, it was not difficult for him to perceive the general situation in Hell.
Under such circumstances, it was easy to guess the current state of the 33 Heavens, the Three Thousand Great Worlds, the Demon Race, and the other powerhouses.
"Boss hasn't returned yet. We have to change our plan slightly!"
Xiaolong continued to frown as he muttered to himself.
As soon as he finished his sentence, his body suddenly rose horizontally and flew out, directly entering the first layer of hell.
As a half-step Dao Attainment Realm expert whose cultivation was not inferior to Di Batian and Donghuang Tai Xuan, Xiaolong's speed was extremely terrifying!
Normally speaking, if he wanted to travel through a large world, he only needed a single thought to appear at any place!
However, the seals in the eighteen layers of hell were personally placed by the Great God Pangu in ancient times. It was the most powerful formation in the world, and even Lu Shaoyou couldn't ignore it. Xiaolong naturally couldn't directly cross the boundless obstacles and could only go down layer by layer!
However, with his speed, it wouldn't take too much time for him to reach the battlefield!
…
The terrifying battle in the sixteenth layer of hell was still ongoing. More than ten million people had joined the battle!
The 33 Heavens and the Three Thousand Great Worlds' Immortal Realm experts were almost on par with the Demon Race.
The Meditative Oblivion Realm experts were also fighting with each other, and it was difficult to determine the victor!
The Demon Race currently had a total of seven Demon Generals, and all of them had reached the Dao Attainment Realm. However, due to the loss of their strength, they hadn't recovered to their peak. Therefore, their strength was only equivalent to a half-step Dao Attainment Realm expert.
To Di Batian and Donghuang Taixuan, if they were in their peak condition, they would barely be able to deal with the four Demon Generals. However, the two of them had already suffered significant injuries, especially Donghuang Taixuan, whose strength had been greatly reduced.
As for the heavy sword Yang Guo and Poison Spirit Witch Lu Xintong, they had just broken through to the half-step Dao Attainment Realm not long ago. Each of them could only withstand the fierce attacks of one Demon General!
Under such circumstances, the 33 Heavens and the Three Thousand Great Worlds were not in a very good situation!
However, the Demon Race was unable to crush them in a short period of time. Both sides suffered heavy casualties, and countless experts died!
"Kill …"
On the other side, the battle between Du Shaofu and the two Demon Attendants was also intense. Terrifying attacks were launched one after another, shaking the heavens and earth and causing the sun and moon to sink!
With Du Shaofu's current strength, he could definitely suppress Dongli Chihuang and Shen Yan. In addition, the two of them were already injured, and they were being ruthlessly trampled by Du Shaofu!
"Barf …"
A mouthful of blood gushed out of Shen Yan's mouth, and his face was extremely pale.
The Eastern Mythical Crimson Phoenix's body was covered with terrifying wounds. There was even a huge hole in its chest, revealing its beating internal organs!
The two of them were severely injured, and they could only block Du Shaofu's attacks without any strength to fight back!
"Two Demon Attendants my ass! In my hands, they can only be suppressed forever!"
Du Shaofu's Purple Gold Heavenly Tower shone brightly, and monstrous sword lights shot out, piercing through everything!
In addition, the nine Purple Lightning Profound Cauldrons whistled through the air, piercing through the sky ferociously and destroying heaven and earth!
Wave after wave of attacks were unleashed by him like a torrential downpour. Every single one of his attacks was terrifying beyond compare!
"You can't kill us!"
Dongli Chihuang had blood in his mouth, and it dyed his mouth red, and he revealed an extremely ferocious state as he spoke!
At this point in the battle, he knew that even if he joined forces with Shen Yan, they weren't a match for Du Shaofu alone.
However, he wasn't afraid. Now that countless Demon Race experts had moved, and they really couldn't resist head-on, they could withdraw and avoid Du Shaofu's attacks!
"Hmph!"
With Dongli Chihuang's words in his ears, Du Shaofu didn't answer anymore and just snorted coldly.
He was constantly paying attention to the situation of the battle around him, and his heart was heavy.
Millions of experts from the 33 Heavens and Three Thousand Boundless Domains had entered the eighteen layers of Hell, reached this point, and launched such a terrifying collision with the Demon Race!
None of this seemed normal, because before entering this place, Senior Brother Lu Shaoyou had told him that there was no need to fight the Demon Race head-on. The premise was that they had to preserve their strength and be better prepared for the final battle with the Demon Race!
Du Shaofu could sense that it wasn't yet time for a decisive battle!
At the very least, he wasn't strong enough to truly kill Jiangchen!
Now that he was at the second stage of the Void Dao, once Jiangchen recovered to his peak and reached the Illusionary Realm, even if Jiangchen stood there and let him kill him, he probably wouldn't be able to cause any substantial damage!
But what Du Shaofu found strange was that the current situation seemed to have deviated from their initial plan. The 33 Heavens, Three Thousand Boundless Domains, and the Demon Race had launched such a terrifying battle. This went against Senior Brother Lu Shaoyou's instructions.
However, with his own strength, there was nothing he could do to change anything. He couldn't possibly lead the experts of the two Boundless Domains away from the Demon Race and abandon the battle. If he did, he feared the Demon Race would pursue him endlessly!
Even if the Demon Race didn't take the initiative to pursue them, they hadn't gained much from their trip to the eighteen layers of Hell. Were they really going to return empty-handed?
Surely, this wasn't Senior Brother Lu Shaoyou's original intention!
Du Shaofu faintly sensed that they'd entered the eighteen layers of Hell for an even more important mission!
But now, after more than a thousand years, the people of the 33 Heavens and Three Thousand Boundless Domains had already killed their way to the sixteenth layer of Hell. But Senior Brother Lu Shaoyou still hadn't appeared, nor had he sent anyone to bring him any more news. This puzzled Du Shaofu.
With this thought in mind, Du Shaofu couldn't help but voice his doubts to Di Batian, Donghuang Taixuan, Yang Guo, Lu Xintong, Lu Jingyun, and the others.
"Senior Uncle Du, do you think so too?"
It was obvious that Lu Jingyun had the same doubts as Du Shaofu, so he asked in such a manner.
"That kid Shaoyou is very mysterious. He didn't tell us any specific arrangements!"
Di Batian shook his head and said.
"But one thing is certain: Shaoyou must've made some arrangements. He won't launch the final battle now!"
Donghuang Taixuan said solemnly.
Everyone nodded when they heard this. They all realized that the time was not ripe yet.
"Let's see how it goes. If Shaoyou still doesn't appear after a while, we should retreat first! Let's hope nothing has happened! "
Yang Guo's heavy sword had no edge. He swung his heavy sword horizontally to block the attack of a demon general and said in a solemn voice.
In fact, before they entered the eighteenth layer of Hell, they had already made some arrangements, but they were afraid that something unexpected would happen and Lu Shaoyou wouldn't be able to arrive in time.
Under such circumstances, they could only act according to the circumstances.
"That's the only way!"
Du Shaofu murmured.
He observed the situation. In terms of top experts, the four half-step Nascent Soul Stage experts were at a disadvantage against the seven Demon Generals.
If they didn't think of a way to escape, the longer they delayed, the harder it would be to escape.
Once the strongest experts were injured, there wouldn't be anyone left to cover their retreat and they would be hunted down by the Demon Race.
"Kill …"
After a simple discussion, Du Shaofu and the others didn't think too much and made a corresponding plan.
So long as the situation on the battlefield took a vicious turn, they had to make a prompt decision to retreat.
Du Shaofu's gaze was like a bolt of lightning, and he stared at Dongli Chihuang and Chen Yan once more.
"Quintessence Skysplitter! Slash! "
He suddenly shouted in a low voice, and the boundless energy in his body surged. The energy of the four primeval Laws surged, and they combined and condensed into the quintessence of the Grand Dao that covered the sky. In the end, it transformed into a sword that slashed down!
Such a sword light was peerlessly murderous, and it shot directly towards Chen Yan and slashed down as if it intended to slash him into two!
Just by standing before the sword light, Chen Yan instantly felt his entire body being restrained by a formidable force, and he was unable to escape even if he wanted to!
"Dodge!"
The Eastern Mythical Scarlet Phoenix instantly cried out and charged towards Chen Yan.
At the same time, he struck out with an expanse of blood red light and fiercely pushed Chen Yan away.
This attack of Du Shaofu's was truly too terrifying, and it caused Dongli Chihuang to feel boundless astonishment.
Under the circumstances that Chen Yan was heavily injured, he didn't even have the time to dodge. If he watched helplessly as Du Shaofu struck him, then his life would probably be in danger!
"Hmph!"
As he gazed at Dongli Chihuang's actions, the corners of Du Shaofu's mouth couldn't help but curl into a wisp of a cold smile.
He controlled the Quintessence Skysplitter to slash down, but suddenly, the tip of his sword suddenly spun and actually changed directions. It disregarded Chen Yan and shot directly towards Dongli Chihuang instead!
Du Shaofu seemed to have expected that Dongli Chihuang would lend Chen Yan a hand, so his sword pierced through space and instantly arrived at Dongli Chihuang!
"Dammit!"
Dongli Chihuang couldn't help but curse loudly. He'd blasted Chen Yan back, yet he'd fallen into Du Shaofu's blockade!
He didn't even give it a thought before he directly converged all the energy in his body to form a tight layer of defense, and he erected a terrifying barrier before himself!
Swish!
At the moment Dongli Chihuang's defense was established, Du Shaofu's attack had already arrived before him!
That monstrous sword light suddenly slashed down like the sharpest weapon in the world, and it carried boundless Origin Energy as it destroyed the barrier in front of him in the blink of an eye!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Swish! During this entire process, Du Shaofu's sword light was swiftly exhausted, and it'd lost half of its strength.
But in the end, the remaining force of the sword light still swept down from the sky and directly slashed onto Dongli Chihuang's body!
"Pfff …"
Such a terrifying attack instantly slashed apart half of Dongli Chihuang's body, causing devil blood to spray down!
"It's time to send both of you on your way!"
Du Shaofu's gaze revealed an icy cold expression. His attack had succeeded and heavily injured Dongli Chihuang, so it would be much easier for him to kill Chen Yan and Chen Yan now!
"Despicable!"
A small portion of Dongli Chihuang's body on the left was slashed apart, and it fell down along with his left arm. Under the crushing force of Du Shaofu's quintessence energy, it quickly transformed into a ball of bloody mist!
Expanses of devil qi arose from his injuries, and only then was the remaining force completely wiped out and stopped the forceful corrosion.
As he watched Du Shaofu charge over once more, Dongli Chihuang didn't dare face him head on. If he was careless, then he might really lose his life here today.
"Let's go!"
On the other side, Chen Yan realized that both of them weren't a match for Du Shaofu. Under the circumstances that they were heavily injured, it wasn't too difficult for Du Shaofu to kill the two of them.
Presently, they could only seek help from the other experts of the devil race and ask them to block Du Shaofu's attacks!
"Do you think you can escape?"
Du Shaofu's eyes were like ice as he looked indifferently at the two of them.
"Rumble …"
Under his control, the nine Purple Lightning Profound Cauldrons drew nine straight lines and directly chased after the two Demon Attendants.
The nine cauldrons crushed space as they followed closely behind the two of them. Coupled with the aggressive Du Shaofu who held the Violet-Gold Heavenly Tower in his hand, it caused the Eastern Flame Crimson Phoenix and Chen Yan to not even dare to look back, and they only cared about fleeing in silence.
A unique scene quickly appeared on the battlefield. In the endless state of chaotic battle, Du Shaofu chased after the two Demon Attendants with all his might and refused to stop. He was completely determined to kill the two of them!
Dongli Chihuang and Chen Yan didn't dare to face Du Shaofu at all. They constantly shuttled back and forth between the other experts of the devil race, asking for help from others.
However, when the other experts of the devil race attacked Du Shaofu, the people of the 33 Heavens and the 3,000 Boundless Worlds also attacked, causing the two of them to have no way to escape.
"Damn Du Shaofu, I'll make you pay back a hundred times for everything you've done one day!"
Dongli Chihuang gritted his teeth tightly and said hatefully.
He already hated Du Shaofu to the core. He could only blame himself for being weak and unable to do anything to the other party.
From the bottom of his heart, Dongli Chihuang only wanted to suppress Du Shaofu and cut him into a thousand pieces to eliminate the hatred in his heart.
"Hmph!"
Du Shaofu's face was cold, and a sinister smile appeared on his face. He didn't answer and just moved fiercely again and again, constantly chasing after the two of them.
However, his advantage in this place was very difficult to change the situation of the entire battlefield.
The devil race's offensive was extremely powerful and terrifying, and the battle between the 33 Heavens and the 3,000 Boundless Worlds was extremely fierce.
Di Batian, Donghuang Taixuan, Yang Guo, and Lu Xintong, the four half-step Dao Realization Realm experts, were beginning to show signs of weakness and were suppressed by the seven devil generals.
Perhaps they wouldn't be defeated for the time being, but if the situation continued to develop, it would only be a matter of time.
"Prepare to retreat, there's no need to continue fighting! I don't know if Shaoyou has other arrangements, but why is there still no news from him? "
Di Batian suddenly said to Du Shaofu, Lu Jingyun, Yang Guo, and the other experts through voice transmission.
He didn't want to wait any longer. If this dragged on, he, Donghuang Taixuan, and the others would no longer be able to withstand the attacks of the seven devil generals. As time went on, they would only fall into a dead end.
Since Lu Shaoyou hadn't taken any further action, perhaps something had really happened.
"Let's retreat. The Nirvana Realm experts should retreat first. Seated Forgetful and half-step Dao Realization Realm experts, bring up the rear!"
When Lu Jingyun heard Di Batian's words, he nodded and said, "That's right.
Then, everyone began to send voice transmissions to the experts in the 33 Heavens and 3,000 Boundless Worlds to prepare to retreat and leave the Eighteen Layers of Hell.
"It seems like we have no choice but to retreat!"
Du Shaofu, who was chasing after Dong Li, Geng Huang, and Chen Yan, sighed softly.
They couldn't continue fighting in the Eighteen Layers of Hell. If Senior Brother Lu Shaoyou didn't appear, it would be difficult for them to advance further.
