The old demon Chu was unleashing his might.
"Kill."
The demon fist shattered everything. Before him, nearly ten Emperors, all disintegrated under the demon fist.
Even the origin of the Great Dao could not withstand this punch, like that of a demon god.
Boom!
Chaos was shattering.
A river of destructive demonic energy emerged, shaking the firmament.
"Run!"
A group of people shrieked and fled.
Their ashen faces were filled with the despair of sensing death.
"Run?"
Heh heh... that smile sent chills down their spines.
Clang!
The rootless battle spear behind him flew out on its own.
The spear was like a demonic dragon, soaring into the sky. A black dragon ascended, shaking the chaos.
Crack.
A sea of lightning suddenly appeared.
Five black dragons bathed in the ten-thousand-zhang lightning sea, roaring as they descended from the sky.
Boom!
Everything in sight was shattering.
The river of Great Dao was shattered by the demonic dragons. The pale-faced enemies who had just re-emerged from the river of Great Dao were swept away by a dragon tail, with a 'bang', their re-emerging figures were shattered once more.
"Hahaha."
Old demon Chu's laughter shook the heavens: "So satisfying."
A feeling he had never experienced before.
The surging energy within him provided him with unparalleled power, flowing endlessly.
Clang!
The demon blade was unsheathed.
One slash severed the river of the heavens, even the chaos was split by this strike.
Truly lawless.
What rules, what order, I am a demon, and I shall defy all.
"Ah..."
Screams rose one after another.
At this moment, old demon Chu was at full power, his killing intent surging in all directions.
"Damn it."
Overlord was extremely envious, muttering, "It's all your fault, otherwise I would have reached the ninth tier now."
Within the domain of the mind.
Intelligent Overlord: "???"
What are you saying?
Do you even know what you're saying?
The ninth tier, is it something anyone can reach?
Looking across the nine heavens and ten lands, the number of ninth tiers would be fortunate to be one-hundred-thousandth of the eighth tiers.
Ten thousand eighth tiers, only then might one ninth tier appear.
Intelligent Overlord was bewildered... He didn't know where your confidence came from.
Never mind Overlord, almost everyone was extremely envious.
Especially old eighth tiers like Heaven-Splitting, their faces were filled with bitterness.
"I'm getting old." King Rain's tone was filled with bitterness.
General Lightning beside him nodded in agreement.
When the City Lord advanced to the ninth tier before, they could still accept it. For such a vast Thunder Domain to produce a prodigy advancing to the ninth tier, they could accept it.
Dragon King had inherited the benevolent shade of a white dragon.
But now, old demon Chu had broken through.
He didn't even know what excuse to find to comfort himself anymore.
"Sigh."
Emperor Drill-Heaven's face was filled with despair: "We'll never reach the ninth tier in this lifetime."
Heaven-Splitting and others looked over, glaring at the Drill-Heaven Rat.
"See, you still don't believe it."
Drill-Heaven Rat shrugged: "Think about it yourselves, among those who reached the ninth tier, which one didn't break through when they were young? Even if they took longer, it wouldn't exceed a hundred thousand years.
Those who haven't broken through in a hundred thousand years, basically have no chance. Their lives are essentially at an end."
Heaven-Splitting: "..."
King Rain: "..."
Although unwilling, this was the reality.
The growth of prodigies was not achieved by piling up time.
If one couldn't break through in a hundred thousand years, there was almost no hope in this lifetime.
"It's not impossible."
General Lightning mumbled: "Those who ascended to the upper nine heavens did break through."
"Heh heh."
Drill-Heaven Rat sneered: "Don't you know how they broke through?"
General Lightning: '...'
Of course, he knew.
The great refinement array in the ninth earth was an opportunity for these eighth tiers.
This kind of thing, they couldn't do it.
Killing billions upon billions of living beings, refining blood pills to break through, they truly couldn't do it.
Even if someone dared to do it, without others needing to act, the City Lord would personally kill him.
"Sigh."
Several people sighed in unison.
They no longer felt like talking.
The more they talked, the more disheartened they became, what else was there to say.
...
On the other side.
"Kill, even if we die, we'll stain him with our blood." The experts being pursued by old demon Chu finally chose to resist.
If they didn't resist, they would be annihilated.
Old demon Chu clearly had no intention of holding back, slaughtering them madly.
"Let's go all out."
The last few dozen Emperors exchanged glances, their eyes resolute.
Without speaking, a decision had been made.
"Turn back, fight."
A group of them turned and charged towards old demon Chu.
"Hahaha, that's more like it." Old demon Chu was happy, satisfied.
"Be careful, don't get trapped."
General Lightning and the others behind them instinctively cautioned.
Even a ninth tier, if surrounded by dozens of eighth tiers, could be killed.
Quantity leading to quality.
Boom.
However, old demon Chu didn't heed the reminder from behind.
His figure was immediately engulfed by the dozens of Emperors.
"This is bad."
Immortal Emperor's face changed, anxiously saying, "Save him..."
Boom!
As soon as the words fell, before they could act, a roar echoed through the chaos.
An eighth tier Emperor self-destructed.
Not just once, huge roars echoed through heaven and earth.
Who would have thought that ten eighth tier Emperors would self-destruct at once, they were determined to kill old demon Chu here.
"Hahaha, kill them!"
The remaining Emperors became excited: "Killing one ninth tier is not a loss, hahaha..."
They were extremely excited.
Although it was a sure death, being able to kill a ninth tier was worth dying for.
All of them simultaneously attacked, charging towards the storm of destruction.
"It's over."
General Lightning's face was frighteningly grim.
Immortal Emperor and the others had already rushed towards the front battlefield.
"Hahaha."
Suddenly, a familiar laugh erupted from the storm of destruction.
The charging figures of Immortal Emperor and the others immediately froze.
Under the surprised gazes of Immortal Emperor and the others, and the despairing stares of the enemies, demonic flames surged to the sky.
Buzz.
A giant, reaching from heaven to earth, pushed open the storm of destruction.
That giant was none other than old demon Chu.
On his ferocious armor, cold demonic light flickered. All attacks were blocked by the armor, leaving mottled marks on it.
The armor was damaged, but it was absorbing demonic energy, slowly recovering.
"How is this possible?" This scene plunged the enemies into despair.
The self-destruction of ten eighth tier Emperors couldn't even completely break through his armor.
"It shouldn't be."
A voice of regret sounded: "We should have all self-destructed together, it would have definitely killed him."
The armor was clearly already broken.
Unfortunately, they had lost their best opportunity.
In a battle of experts, a moment of carelessness could lead to death.
Now was the time.
Boom!
Five black dragons descended from the sea of lightning.
Screams of agony and roars of explosions spread throughout the ninth earth.
There was no more chance.
"Kill."
Old demon Chu, wielding his demon blade, grinned as he charged forward.
His killing intent had already exploded.
A bloody path stretched forward, accompanied by the screams of death and the roars of the Great Dao.
"Oh?"
Old demon Chu exclaimed, raising his hand to grasp forward and smiled: "There are still Dao Spirits, good, I like it."
Saying that, he directly swallowed the scattered Dao Spirits.
Old demon Chu became even more excited, charging forward madly.
...
In the river of life and death.
Everyone had disappeared, all their spirits scattered.
"Huff."
The nine ninth tiers were all exhausted.
The power of the Great Dao within them was almost depleted.
It could be seen how difficult it was to purify the yin spirits.
If the Lord of Primordial Fire were to make a comeback now, it would be terrible.
Bang.
At the last moment, the river of life and death and the light curtain of heaven all dissipated.
