On the walls of the Lex Empire city, the surrounding areas were also garrisoned by an army of over a billion imperial troops. As far as the eye could see, it was an endless expanse, but it paled in comparison to the combined might of the three allied races.
Facing them was the most powerful force, the absolute ruler of the entire Titos world. The Lex Empire's vast army had no will to fight.
Moreover, dozens of terrifying powerhouses emanating powerful auras hovered in the sky above. These were the terrifying Emperors from Feistanz and the sacred land of the Elves, their unleashed magic seeming to press down upon the entire world.
"Are those in the sky all supreme beings?"
"In the presence of the Supreme Emperors, no one is permitted to fly, lest they be deemed disrespectful and killed without mercy!"
"44 of them! A full 44!"
"How are we supposed to fight this? What can we use to fight?"
"Wasn't this supposed to be a war of alien extermination? We don't need to risk our lives, do we?"
"Hush! Don't you want to live? Here comes the Grim Reaper!"
...
Just as the Lex Empire army was succumbing to fear and harboring thoughts of desertion, two figures materialized before the terrifying powerhouses, the supreme beings of the demon race. It was Bai Ye and Sidon.
The two gazed ahead silently. Sidon chuckled, "13 five-star Emperors, 31 four-star Emperors. Bai Ye, these guys really value you!"
"Perhaps I'm quite valuable," Bai Ye quipped, then asked, "How many are you taking on?"
"How many?" Sidon chuckled again. Facing the assembled demons, the peak powerhouses of the Titos world, he showed no signs of tension, instead adopting an arrogant demeanor.
"I've endured for a long time. Centuries of honing a sword, all for this moment. I want all of them!" Sidon removed the long sword from his back and disassembled its black sheath. It was a sword of pure crimson. The moment the black sheath was removed, crimson sword energy swirled around him, exuding a bloodthirsty aura, each strand of energy chilling.
Bai Ye's gaze shifted slightly. This sword energy was forged from blood!
"Are you sure?" Thirteen five-star Emperors plus over thirty four-star Emperors – even for him, it wouldn't be an easy fight.
"If I can't handle it, you can step in," Sidon said with a joking tone. "Your grandfather hasn't shown up yet. When he does, he's yours."
Bai Ye narrowed his eyes slightly. Suddenly, the entire space rippled, and the expressions of the supreme Emperors opposite them instantly changed. They all stared at Bai Ye with grave intensity.
"This fellow's strength is so terrifying, just a glance instantly changes the heavens and earth."
"Let's attack together later and kill them all in one go to avoid further complications."
The old men secretly communicated.
"Then it's up to you," Bai Ye replied, also curious to see the extent of this fellow's strength.
With that, Bai Ye raised his hand and waved. The dull gray sky suddenly turned a dazzling white, and giant snowflakes began to fall from the sky.
"Attack!" Seeing Bai Ye make a move, the supreme Emperors of the three demon races immediately unleashed their full demonic power. For a moment, the entire sky was buffeted by demonic energy, the space unable to withstand it, distorting and twisting rapidly.
"Kill!" the commanders of the demon army roared. The demons charged towards the capital of the Lex Empire like a monstrous flood.
The shouts of slaughter were earth-shattering, demonic energy engulfing the land. The faces of the Lex Empire defenders turned ashen. The scale of this assault was too terrifying; they didn't even have the courage to strike.
Suddenly, the snowflakes that had fallen to the ground rose from the earth. Over a million colossal snowmen, each over ten meters tall, appeared like a great wall guarding the front lines.
"It's that army of snowmen!"
"No! It's different. Their auras… why do all these snowmen have the aura of Emperors?"
"This… this entire expanse are Emperors?"
"There must be… at least a million of them, right?"
The terrified Lex Empire army was dumbfounded, their hearts filled with unimaginable shock. The Titos world was teeming with powerhouses, and there were not a few at the Emperor level, but never had there been a million.
Yet, this mysterious and terrifying individual, with a casual summoning spell, had summoned so many?
"Roar!!!"
Facing the demonic army like a surging tide, the snowman army showed no fear. Each one roared ferociously and charged directly into the overwhelming magical attacks.
A fierce and bloody battle commenced. Screams and roars echoed from within the terrifying magical explosions. The earth was shrouded in magic, and waves of dreadful energy shot skyward.
The scene was chaotic!
In the sky, the four-star and five-star Emperors were also stunned by Bai Ye's display of magic. If he had summoned a few, or even hundreds, of Emperor-level beings, they might have accepted it. But for one person to conjure an entire army of Emperors, who could withstand that?
Most shocked were the demon Emperors engaged in combat with these Emperor-level snowmen. Although these snowmen only possessed one or two types of magic and their attacks were simplistic, their defensive capabilities were monstrous, and they could revive after death. Their initial confidence vanished completely.
"Half-demons, obey my command!" Sidon, who was about to engage the supreme beings of the demon race, suddenly shouted from the sky.
"Kill!!!"
Half-demons? Obeying your command? Everyone was slightly taken aback, even the demons currently locked in fierce battles with the Emperor-level snowmen felt a sense of bewilderment.
However, after Sidon's command, a scene that terrified and horrified everyone unfolded. The half-demons who had just been fighting the snowmen suddenly launched attacks on the surrounding demonic creatures and elven plant-demons.
"Ah!!"
"Roar roar roar!!"
"Traitors!"
"How dare you half-demons betray the demon race!"
In an instant, vast swathes of the demon army fell. The half-demons did not have five-star Emperors, but their numbers of powerful individuals among Demon Kings and quasi-Emperors were comparable to the demonic creatures, which was why they were ranked as the third major race in the Titos world.
With the defection and attack of the half-demons, combined with the million Emperor-level snowmen, the demon army of over a hundred trillion fell into a disadvantage.
"Kill them!" In the sky, the supreme beings of the demonic creatures and elves, witnessing the frantic slaughter of their kin, decided to send their nearby four-star Emperors to join the battle below.
But Sidon, standing before them, snorted. The sword energy of his mysterious long sword intensified, and he blurred into motion.
"Ah!" A scream echoed through the sky as a large amount of blood sprayed out. The first four-star Emperor to make a move was decapitated.
"What!!" The supreme beings of the demon race's pupils contracted, their hearts churning. A four-star Emperor, instantly killed by a single blow from this man!
"You, you are the guardian of the Devourf world!"
"It's him! That's right!" At this moment, they finally recognized the identity of the person before them. They had initially thought he was merely Bai Ye's subordinate, only to realize he was an existence of the same caliber!
"Attack together!"
"Don't hold back!"
The 13 five-star Emperors and over 30 four-star Emperors launched their attacks simultaneously. Powerful magical spells rained down on Sidon.
Dark magic, fire magic, holy light, ice, firm earth, lightning… the air was filled with the aura of destruction!
"As I said, you all belong to me! It would have been better if you'd attacked together sooner." Sidon stood in the air like a god of war, a hint of seriousness appearing on his face.
"Chaos, Return to the Void, Limitless, Return to Origin…"
Bai Ye, observing the battle, narrowed his gaze. He saw a mysterious power emanating from Sidon, a power he had never witnessed before, terrifying indeed!
*Hummm!!!*
As Sidon softly chanted, a faint red orb of light rose from him. As the supreme beings of the demon race's attacking spells were mere inches away, he charged forward with the orb, showing no hesitation.
An unexpected event occurred. The magical spells, imbued with the ultimate power of rules, were passed through by Sidon without the anticipated terrifying explosions.
"He can actually pass through our attacks!"
"What is this power? It seems to evade all energy!"
The supreme beings of the demon race's expressions turned grave.
"Be careful!"
While everyone was still in shock, Sidon had already charged towards an Elven supreme being enveloped in divine light.
This Elven supreme being also reacted with extreme speed. His wings retracted, layers of magical shields rose, and he instantly unleashed an impenetrable defense.
However, Sidon showed no pause. The red sword in his hand, carrying sword energy, sliced through space and struck the Elven supreme being with unadorned simplicity.
*Pfft!!*
A horrifying scene unfolded. The Elven supreme being, along with his external magical barrier, was directly bisected by Sidon.
Ignoring defense!
The first five-star Emperor, a supreme being, had fallen!
"What, what is this power?"
"With such full-power energy defense, even a five-star Emperor would need at least three to break through by force! How did he do it?"
These supreme beings, who had been invincible and had been in decline for tens of thousands of years, were now filled with fear. Sidon did not pause; his figure flickered, continuing his slaughter. These peak world-class powerhouses were like lambs to the slaughter before Sidon.
Seeing Sidon's ferocity, Bai Ye was also secretly astonished. He hadn't expected the fellow who had been lurking and acting meek to possess such terrifying strength. Indeed, no world guardian, no one who controlled the power of a world, was simple.
Was this a power that transcended all kinds of demonic energy? Or was there some secret? Bai Ye couldn't comprehend the power Sidon wielded.
"You've finally come." While deep in thought, Bai Ye suddenly turned his head towards another direction. He saw an old man in white robes slowly appearing, looking at Bai Ye with a smile.
"Little Ye, we meet again."
