"Great Elder!"
"Great Elder!"
A group of Zhenmo clan powerhouses exclaimed and rushed over.
"Hurry and escape, save who you can, quickly leave the Myriad Burial Demonic Abyss! The Demonic Emperor... can't hold on anymore!"
The Great Elder's voice was weak, clearly at the end of his strength.
He held on to his last breath and said to all the Zhenmo clan members.
"Hahahaha!"
"Where do you think you're escaping to!"
Above the sky, the Demonic Emperor's sinister and evil laughter boomed.
Its colossal body filled the firmament, its pair of evil, blood-red, lamp-like eyes looked down, and it sneered, "Today, I, this Emperor, am free. I shall devour all of you to celebrate my freedom!"
It smacked its monstrous maw, "Eating hundreds of Core Condensation realm cultivators, including over a dozen at the peak of Core Condensation, should allow me to quickly reach the peak of Golden Core realm. Returning to the Manifestation realm is just around the corner! As for regaining my Emperor realm... I wonder if devouring this Jiuhua Realm will be enough..."
As soon as it finished speaking, the Demonic Emperor's sky-obscuring demonic palm lunged downwards.
Several Core Condensation realm Martial Venerables from the Tianluo Sect were caught without any resistance and thrown into the Demonic Emperor's mouth.
Crunch...
Crunch...
The horrifying chewing sounds, along with the extremely shrill screams of these Tianluo Sect powerhouses in their final moments, shattered the silence.
The Demonic Emperor licked its blood-red lips with a look of lingering desire and reached down again.
"Ah!"
"Run!"
"Isn't it supposed to be our helper in seizing the Myriad Burial Demonic Abyss? Isn't it on our side? Why is it attacking us?"
"Let me go! Don't grab me!"
This grab was like a wolf entering a flock of sheep. The hundreds of powerhouses from the two regions were instantly filled with despair. The scarlet light in their eyes finally receded significantly.
Several more Core Condensation realm powerhouses were captured and devoured by the Demonic Emperor in a few crunches, bones and even their Nascent Pills swallowed whole.
One of the Core Condensation realm powerhouses, at the last moment, attempted to self-detonate his Nascent Pill, but a terrifying demonic energy engulfed him, leaving him no chance to do so.
Another round of extremely shrill screams echoed through the sky.
This time, infinite fear spread, and the cultivators from the two regions, who had been bewitched by the Six Desires Demonic Sound, finally came to their senses!
"There's no treasure at all! This demon is inside the Demonic Hall! We were used by it! Damn it!"
"Run!"
"Golden Core realm! This demon is Golden Core realm, we're doomed!"
"Let's go!"
Hundreds of Core Condensation realm powerhouses cried out in panic.
Luo Yun, the Young Master of the Tianluo Sect, was also filled with terror. He quickly shouted, "Where are the people from the Tianluo Sect? Where are they all? Come and protect this Young Master! You elders at the peak of Core Condensation, all surround me quickly, don't let this demon capture me!"
After the Tianluo Sect members surrounded him, protecting Luo Yun tightly, Luo Yun felt slightly relieved, but his face was still filled with terror.
"Let's go, let's get out of this cursed place quickly! I'll never come back even if you beat me to death!"
Luo Yun urged.
"Where do you think you're going! You are all this Demonic Emperor's blood food."
Above the sky, the Demonic Emperor snorted coldly, and boundless demonic energy erupted from its body, like a massive black curtain, descending upon them.
Terrifying demonic laws intertwined, instantly forming a demonic barrier that trapped everyone within.
"Damn it, open for me!"
A group of Core Condensation realm powerhouses rushed to the edge of the barrier and frantically attacked it with their spiritual energy. However, the strength of the demonic laws was not something they could break. The barrier remained unmoved.
"It's over... it's over!"
Everyone was now in despair.
The Demonic Emperor's mad and evil laughter echoed through heaven and earth. It reached out its claws again and again, each time devouring several Core Condensation realm cultivators.
And as it devoured more and more Core Condensation realm cultivators, its aura grew stronger.
This recovery speed was even faster than directly absorbing chaotic spiritual energy!
The wounds that the Zhenmo clan's Great Elder had inflicted on it with the Demon-Slaying Sacred Blade while risking his life were now rapidly healing, flesh and blood wriggling. Supported by the vast energy, they soon returned to normal, and the demonic body became even more solid and powerful.
"Ah!"
Several more people from the Tianluo Sect were captured.
One of the Core Condensation realm cultivators, in extreme terror and despair, actually attacked the Demonic Emperor. However, his spiritual energy attack fell on the Demonic Emperor as if an ant had bitten an elephant, causing no pain or itch.
It couldn't even break through the black scales on the Demonic Emperor's body.
At this point, everyone was even more desperate.
"Great Elder, what should we do?"
Elder Long Sheng's expression was extremely solemn as he lowered his voice to the Great Elder.
"The Demonic Emperor is unstoppable! In a moment, I will use my last bit of strength to use the Demon-Slaying Sacred Blade to break a gap in the barrier. Then, all of you must escape! You must pass on the bloodline!"
"Yes!"
Elder Long Sheng nodded.
The other Zhenmo clan members also nodded with grief.
As everyone was discussing.
On the Demonic Emperor's side, perhaps it was getting impatient from eating, or perhaps it had absorbed too much chaotic spiritual energy and Core Condensation realm cultivators at once and couldn't refine it all.
After all, it had only just broken free from its seal and was at its weakest.
It was impossible to return to its peak state immediately.
A cunning glint flashed in the Demonic Emperor's eyes.
It said, "Hmm, I shall give you a chance now. Surrender to me! I will plant a demonic seed within you, and from then on, you shall be my demon race!"
"Those who do not surrender shall die!"
The Demonic Emperor said fiercely.
"We surrender! We surrender! We beg the Demonic Emperor Your Majesty to fulfill our wish!"
"I am willing! I am a thousand times willing! As long as the Demonic Emperor Your Majesty doesn't eat me, I'm willing to do anything!"
"I am also willing to serve under your command!"
Plop.
Plop.
Large swathes of cultivators from the two regions knelt before the Demonic Emperor.
Especially the people from the Tianluo Sect, they knelt the fastest and were the most respectful.
In particular, Luo Yun, the Young Master of the Tianluo Sect, was so obsequious that he was almost crawling forward to lick the Demonic Emperor's feet.
A few cultivators who were still hesitating were met with a cold snort from the Demonic Emperor. Streams of powerful demonic laws flowed out like endless darkness, *poof*!
*Poof*!
These cultivators were directly killed by the demonic laws, their bodies drained. The Demonic Emperor tilted its head back and inhaled, drawing the demonic laws back into its body, feeling incredibly comfortable.
"Now!"
Seeing the Demonic Emperor strike and kill those who refused to surrender, the Great Elder seized the opportunity to break the barrier with the Demon-Slaying Sacred Blade.
The Great Elder's withered body poured out the last bit of its spiritual energy, channeling it into the Demon-Slaying Sacred Blade. Instantly, a thick blade-light tore through the sky and slashed fiercely at the nearest part of the barrier.
Just then.
A terrifying demonic energy flowed.
An extremely evil figure suddenly appeared before the Demon-Slaying Sacred Blade and grabbed it.
It was the Demonic Emperor!
