Taibai Mountain.
A group of demon kings gathered within, each pacing back and forth and scanning the peaks of Taibai.
They all appeared quite curious.
This was understandable, as from this day forward, this would be their new home.
"Strange, did any of you hear a rumbling sound?"
After observing for a moment, Ao Guang seemed to detect something, tilting his head towards the sky and exclaiming softly.
"A rumbling sound? Was there?" Banlan Tiger King tilted his head, listening intently for a while, appearing very puzzled.
He hadn't heard a sound at all. Puzzled, he couldn't help but turn to the others and ask, "Did you hear it?"
The various beasts and demon kings, upon hearing this, exchanged glances and then shook their heads.
It was clear they, like Banlan Tiger King, hadn't heard a sound.
"Did I hear it wrong?" Ao Guang was somewhat confused seeing everyone shake their heads.
"What are you talking about?" Dai Xiaomei walked over from a distance, looking at the gathered demon kings and asking curiously.
"I think I heard a rumbling sound," Ao Guang replied truthfully. "It sounded like... the propellers of a helicopter."
"Hmm?" Dai Xiaomei paused and listened carefully, but like the other demon kings, she didn't hear a single sound.
However, unlike the demon kings, she didn't doubt Ao Guang. After thinking for a moment, she said, "King Que, go up and see what's happening."
"Alright!"
King Que nodded, flapped his wings, and immediately ascended into the air.
"Nothing to report."
King Que flew to mid-air and did a quick scan.
Then, he laughed heartily, "Ao Guang, have you been up to no good recently? Are you feeling weak, causing you to hallucinate..."
Before he could finish speaking, King Que suddenly felt a inexplicable and intense sense of danger.
This sense of danger was terrifying, as if he would be utterly annihilated in the next second.
Startled, King Que abruptly looked up towards the sky, and his expression drastically changed.
"Run, quick, run!"
"What's wrong?"
The demon kings were bewildered and followed his gaze to the sky.
Immediately after, their pupils contracted sharply.
At this very moment.
Within their field of vision, a tiny black dot was streaking down from the sky.
It was rapidly enlarging in every beast's eyes.
This tiny black dot was moving incredibly fast, almost beyond the limit of human vision.
When they first saw it, it was still far away, but in the blink of an eye, it was directly above them.
"Missile!"
A thought abruptly arose in the minds of many demon kings.
Just then.
A missile descended with a roar, appearing as if it was about to strike Taibai Mountain.
The faces of the demon kings turned to fear. If this missile hit,
Taibai Mountain would surely not withstand the impact.
After all, Taibai Mountain was merely a piece of land, and it was now standing in the middle of the ocean!
King Que, in mid-air, gritted his teeth and directly intercepted the missile with his own body.
Bang!
The missile struck King Que's body and exploded like fireworks.
The flames instantly engulfed hundreds of meters of space, the intense red light almost illuminating the entire Taibai Mountain with a crimson hue.
An incredibly terrifying shockwave emanated, causing the demon kings present to tremble involuntarily.
Following that.
A figure was blasted back from the explosion, crashing heavily onto the ground and creating a massive crater.
He was covered in blood, and his original appearance was completely unrecognizable.
It was the King Que from moments ago!
"King Que!"
Seeing the once unharmed King Que reduced to such a tragic state in an instant, the eyes of the demon kings belonging to Taibai Mountain turned red.
Although they often bickered with King Que, it was merely brotherly affection.
Having spent so much time with King Que, how could they stand by and watch him be bullied?
Moreover!
It was for them that King Que had taken the missile head-on just now.
"Quick... quick, run!"
However, just as they were about to ask King Que what had happened.
The near-death King Que suddenly let out a roar as if he had seen something.
The demon kings were startled and quickly turned their gazes to the horizon.
They saw small black dots appearing in the sky again.
But unlike before, this time there were many, many small black dots.
They were so dense it looked like a fine mist was falling.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
The small black dots were accompanied by piercing sonic booms.
Without exception, these were all... missiles!
At this moment, the spirits of the demon kings who had just joined Taibai Mountain plummeted to the depths.
Missiles!
As far as the eye could see, there were missiles.
How could they possibly resist?
They were no longer mere beasts who had just gained sentience. They understood very well the immense power of missiles.
That's right, Ao Yuan could indeed withstand the impact of missiles.
But they were not Ao Yuan!
The demon kings had no confidence in their ability to withstand this barrage of missiles, having witnessed King Que's fate.
At this moment, countless demon kings felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, and could even clearly smell the scent of death.
"Don't panic!"
However, just then, a clear shout suddenly exploded in the ears of the demon beasts.
Mozi looked at the horizon, her expression extremely serious.
"All of Taibai, follow me and engage!"
With that, Mozi pushed off the ground with her feet and leaped into the air.
A blue luminescence surged from her body, echoing the azure of the sky and the deep blue of the sea.
Instantly, the blue luminescence spread out like a spiderweb, thinning and intertwining to form a net in mid-air.
Bang bang bang!
At the same time, missiles poured down.
They slammed into the fine blue net with a roar.
The missiles exploded, erupting in bursts of flame. Even though it was daytime,
the effect on the onlookers was like dazzling fireworks at night.
The only difference was that fireworks were beautiful and worth cherishing,
while this was something that could kill them!
One missile after another continued to fall.
Mozi managed to block one missile, but the subsequent ones became increasingly difficult to resist.
The blue light on the fine net faded, looking as if it would snap at any moment.
And Mozi's expression grew increasingly grim.
Although the missiles hadn't hit her directly, they had clearly dealt her a significant blow.
If this continued,
Mozi might not be able to hold on much longer.
The demon kings watched this scene in a daze, the thunderous explosions seemingly about to shatter their eardrums.
"Let's go together!"
Dai Xiaomei scanned the area, gritted her teeth, and with streaks of scorching flames appearing all over her body, she charged forward with Mozi.
She and Mozi were as close as sisters; how could she let Mozi face this alone?
"Weaker demon beasts, scatter if you can! Do not come out!"
With these final words, Dai Xiaomei arrived beside Mozi.
"Follow the path of the Dragon Envoy!"
Seeing Mozi and Dai Xiaomei charge forward, the demon kings of Taibai, suppressing their fear, leaped up one after another.
They didn't understand why such powerful missiles had suddenly appeared.
But they understood one thing.
If...
they didn't resist this time, they would surely die.
...
