The Primal Chaos existences could only wait within the Void Castle.
Xue Ying was also silently waiting in the enormous palace hall watching the blurred image being projected on the smooth wall next to him. He shook his head softly. No matter the battle that brought the primitive Ancient Sacred World to ruin or the subsequent wars that Sacred Master incited, or this resistance against the Destruction Devils, the final decisive battles were always dependent on the Cosmos Gods. They as Primal Chaos existences could only spectate from the side.
One Blade Emperor or Ancestor Sorcerer sufficed to exterminate all of them.
This was the gap in quality.
“Sou.”
A total of several hundred Primal Chaos existences including Xue Ying, Monarch Xing Huo, and Heart Imitation Religious Master suddenly turned over at the same time. There was a hunchbacked old man who appeared in the palace hall. He was none other than Forefather Tian Yu.
Forefather Tian Yu swept his gaze across the Primal Chaos existences before chuckling: “Alright, those Destruction Devils have either died in battle or have fled. There are no longer any Destruction Devil in the inner region. The danger this time has been resolved.”
“Ha.”
“I knew it.”
“It will always be a joke no matter how those Destruction Devils struggle.”
The whole hall burst into noise all of a sudden; laughter filled the place.
Forefather Tian Yu softly nodded before his figure turned blurred and he disappeared.
Xue Ying was merely watching everything. It was hard for him to relax.
“Dong Bo, go, let us go drink a few cups.” Monarch Xing Huo walked over with a smile, “The matter has been resolved, yet why are you still frowning? What is on your mind?”
“Nothing much. Come, let us go have some drinks.” Xue Ying immediately revealed a smile. But he was sighing in his heart–
Attack? The Destruction Devils took the initiative to attack them.
Retreat? It was similarly the Destruction Devils who were in control when they retreated.
…
Within the Void Castle, in another quiet palace hall, the 12 Cosmos Gods were seated here. Their expressions were ugly.
“The final one who called himself ‘Emperor Jun’ seems to be comparable with me in strength.” Blade Emperor sat there commenting with a cold voice.
“The survival capabilities of those Destruction Devils are innately great. These Cosmos Gods devils working together might be far from our overall combat strength, but none of them died after fighting with us for four hours.” Devil Mountain Primogenitor sighed with a deep tone, “We can’t kill them, and there will only be more Cosmos Gods appearing over time. Furthermore, that Destruction Devil Emperor Jun has reached the second level of Cosmos God realm. It seems the situation is worsening.”
“Mn.”
“The situation is indeed getting bleak.”
Those present were all the Cosmos Gods that would determine the fate of the entire primal chaos void with their actions. Nevertheless, they felt helpless at this moment.
Kill?
They could not kill the other party!
The Destruction Devils were clearly becoming stronger at a faster rate. Even though the cultivators would also nurture more experts over time, they were nurturing them using ordinary methods. As for the Destruction Devils, with an increase in the number of lairs, many more powerful Destruction Devils would emerge every period. They would only become stronger, catching up to where the cultivators were, and even surpass them!
These Cosmos Gods were watching as things happened while remaining helpless about it.
“It is still quite early. They want to grow and reach our strength? It will require quite a long time.” Ancestor Sorcerer said nonchalantly, “During this period, we can also do our best to reduce the growth of the Destruction Devils. As long as we have sufficient time, a miracle might happen. Even if we lost in the final struggle, it isn’t a big deal since we will just be destroyed along with the primal chaos void.”
“Haha, indeed, it’ll be a case of a great apocalypse at the end at worst.”
“There is still sufficient time.”
For these cultivators to reach where they were, everyone had the fortitude to accept the proceedings calmly.
“These Destruction Devils have attacked the spatial barrier many times already.” World Ancestor caressed his thin, small and sharp jaw while muttering, “And they did not exert their true genuine strength every single time.”
“Mn.”
“Right, they did not exert all their strength at all.”
“Just like that Emperor Jun, he did not act at the start. He only started striking us at the end.”
“They did not send out many of the weaker Destruction Devils as well. If they were to throw in their true strength, they could definitely send out ten times or even more Destruction Devils to beguile us, making it hard for us to discover their core power. They can then easily arrive at our spatial barrier.”
Everyone present agreed. The Destruction Devils had not used their full strength.
World Ancestor continued: “Why are they doing this? Why are they attacking the spatial barrier time after time without sending their full force? I’ve long guessed that they are scouting the actual situation of the spatial barrier, but is it the case everytime they attacked us? Furthermore, we have even discovered traces of the Destruction Devils hiding in the primal chaos void and the five great sacred worlds. Clearly, the Destruction Devils have crossed through the spatial barrier and proceeded onto the five great sacred worlds. But how did they achieve that? I guess it should be at the point of time when they attacked the spatial barrier.”
“I suspect that too.” Ancestor Sorcerer added, “But I’ve examined the spatial barrier many times before, and have never discovered any disturbances of them crossing it.”
“Unless they have someone who can teleport through an ultra-long distance too?” Ancestor Bone muttered.
“Impossible.”
“If they could do so, there is no point for them to waste their time with us here. They would have long killed their way to the five great sacred worlds.”
“Mn, they should have some special ways of crossing the spatial barrier.”
They were also thinking about it.
******
The mood of the cultivators was slightly worse. They had already discovered that there were some ‘issues’ with the Destruction Devils attacking the spatial barrier time after time. And within the Lost World Corridor.
“Haha…”
The five ‘kings’ were currently within a luxurious-looking palace and were drinking and chatting happily.
Seated at the most center was a thin male with a long, scaled tail. His tail was subdivided into many parts, and his tail had encircled around his own seat twice. He was currently the strongest expert of the current Destruction Devil, ‘Emperor Jun’.
“Those cultivators are still foolishly fighting with us, yet they do not know that we have already sent three kings out when we are attacking the spatial barrier.”
“The shadowless talent is indeed formidable.”
“This palm of mine has created a shockwave that reached General Mo Gu, but he isn’t injured at all.”
They were both praising and envying those with great innate talent.
The ‘shadowless’ talent represented the limit of the void-ification theory. One could practically bypass all forbidding techniques, barriers, seals, and other experts’ offense could hardly injure them too. The moment they void-ified, others could not see him.
“Who would have thought that Emperor Jun has returned this time too.”
“Haha, with Big Brother Emperor Jun around, we will have an easier time dealing against those cultivators.”
Emperor Jun who was seated there with his long tails moving slightly chuckled: “This time, the other three kings have left too. All the ‘kings’ have been out before, and we aren’t in a rush to start another battle for a longer period. Everyone should calm yourself down and properly cultivate. We need sufficient time and patience to accumulate the strength of our Destruction Devils.”
“Mn.” The other four present nodded and agreed with him.
…
In the period after that, things returned to normal. Xue Ying spent the majority of his concentration on cultivation and seeking new golden-armored graded lairs. He would occasionally get embroiled in battles within the inner region.
In the blink of an eye, another 300 million years had passed.
In the Seven Star Oceanic Sacred World, within a slightly more isolated region, there was an extravagant city. This was the territory of the Primal Chaos giant, ‘Jade Light Empress’. Jade Light Empress opened her own religion here, imparting it to her disciples. She had even constructed a colossal city that could protect many cultivators. During this period, Jade Light Empress was absolutely the ancestor of this region, and many nations had decided to rely on her. Of which only the most talented cultivators were qualified to become her disciple.
“Empress.”
“Empress.”
Within the god palace, everyone who saw Jade Light Empress would respectfully greet her.
Jade Light Empress was in a pristine white robe. She walked within the palace hall barefooted, and there was a strand of frown on her brows. She was initially in closed-door cultivation when suddenly, she felt that things were amiss.
“What happened?” Jade Light Empress stood before the railings at the top level of the god palace. She grabbed on the railings while looking down at the huge city.
And at this moment.
There were six figures situated high in the sky. The leading one was a golden-robed man. The golden-robed man was tall and thin, and his triangular eyes were looking down at the entire nation. There was a wicked look on his face.
“Capture Jade Light Empress alive for me. I want to personally swallow her.” The thin golden-robed man ordered coldly, “I want to devour all cultivators in the entire city as well.”
“Yes, yes General Mo Gu.” The five subordinates behind him acknowledged.
The golden-robed thin male revealed a smile of excitement and expectation. He was none other than General Mo Gu who had the ‘shadowless talent’. The other three ‘kings’ had long separated away from him and went hiding in the cultivator’s world with concealed identities. As for these five subordinates… they were all golden-armored ranked Destruction Devils, with two reaching the ninth level strength, and the other three reaching the peak of the eighth level.
These five were selected exceptionally and were brought out together previously! Their mission was to protect ‘General Mo Gu’.
“It has been too long. Previously, you all prevented me from devouring the cultivators, but this time, I must eat to my pleasure.” The golden-robed thin male extended his tongue and licked his lips.
