428: A great war is about to begin

Half a quarter-hour later.

Above the Far North Land, everything returned to tranquility.

A slender figure walked slowly toward the distance.

In his right hand, he held a sword, and in his left, a severed head.

The head was twisted in shape, like a deformed infant, with blood dripping continuously; it was indeed Night Demon's head!

Before its death, its face had contorted, filled with fear and resentment.

Night Demon never expected that it, the majestic Lord of the Sea Demon Race and an ultimate existence at the Ninth Rank Peak, would one day die so miserably at the hands of a human!

This human, whom it once regarded as a mere ant...

After slaying Night Demon, Fang Bai's aura was rising at every moment.

With energy flooding back in, his own cultivation had already reached its limit; now, upon that limit, he was transcending even further...

Gradually, a blurry vision appeared in Fang Bai's eyes—the essence of this world, the Great Dao of this civilization.

Fang Bai was resonating with them.

This meant that he had already reached the limit of this civilization!

Fang Bai even saw things he previously couldn't.

The White Emperor's restriction!

As far as his eyes could see, the entire Blue Star was enveloped in a layer of golden light. Within that light, countless runes flickered and flowed, though the golden light was becoming increasingly dim...

Beyond the golden light, he could only see a blurry darkness, but outside that civilization, there were auras that made one's heart palpitate!

Even as the ceiling of this civilization, he felt the pressure!

“High-level civilization...”

A hint of surprise appeared in Fang Bai's eyes, then he said slowly, “Come. No matter how many come, I will kill them all!”

From another perspective, he actually hoped for these alien races to invade; it just so happened that he could use this to break through his own limits!

Killing Night Demon provided him with massive feedback because Night Demon was only slightly weaker than him—they were experts of the same level, essentially—and its contribution granted Fang Bai immense benefits.

【Ding! Host's Contribution Points have reached the exchange requirement. Would you like to proceed with the exchange?】

The system's voice suddenly rang out, and Fang Bai's figure paused.

He thought for a moment and then said, “Exchange!”

“System, exchange for the Void-Breaking Pupils!”

【Ding! Exchange successful! Consumed ten million Contribution Points. Void-Breaking Pupils are automatically merging!】

Shua!

A sharp pain shot through Fang Bai's eyes. He couldn't help but close them as a mysterious golden light flashed.

In the next second, Fang Bai snapped his eyes open!

Now, his pupils no longer looked as they once did; a sacred hexagram pattern emerged within them. His gaze was as brilliant as the stars and as deep as an abyss.

Void-Breaking Pupils! Breaking through all delusions in the world!

In Fang Bai's vision, invisible forces of laws were operating. These laws, which seemed like gibberish to other Ninth-Rank Experts, were now crystal clear to him. Fang Bai understood the operation of these laws almost at a single glance!

“These forces of laws are still inferior to the power of a second-level civilization,” Fang Bai commented.

He had witnessed experts from a second-level civilization wield the power of laws, which was far more advanced than that of a first-level civilization. This was the gap between two different civilizations; for a lower civilization, a high-level civilization was practically a dimensional strike!

However, the fact that they couldn't do anything to the White Emperor truly proved his strength.

The latter could be said to be equivalent to a Lord of Civilization, standing above the laws.

The reason he exchanged for the Void-Breaking Pupils was that Fang Bai wanted to deal with that Illusion Demon God.

The Illusion Demon God's strength lay in its mastery of illusions. As long as its illusions were broken, slaying it would not be difficult.

In a short amount of time, Fang Bai's strength had risen once again!

It was rising almost every single moment!

Cheating to the absolute extreme.

...

Demon Realm.

Inside a certain cave dwelling, the Space Demon God, who was in seclusion, suddenly opened its eyes. A crimson light shone eerily in the darkness.

“Night Demon... has fallen!”

There was a hint of shock in its voice; clearly, Night Demon's fall was somewhat unexpected.

The opponent was at the Ninth Rank Peak; in this world, who could kill it?

That old man of the human race was currently in seclusion and couldn't possibly deal with Night Demon. Who exactly was it?

“It seems your plan has run into a problem,” a wicked voice rang out.

The Space Demon God said in a heavy voice, “Our pawn is dead.”

“Those who can kill a Ninth Rank Peak are at least at the level of the Gluttonous God. In your civilization, there are no more than three such experts,” the voice said indifferently.

The Space Demon God was silent for a moment, then said, “Could it be that the Gluttonous God took action?”

“No, it is still under my surveillance; it couldn't possibly escape my eyes,” the voice denied decisively.

“Could it be that human?” The Space Demon God frowned. It suspected Fang Bai, but the facts proved that such a notion was absurd!

No matter how monstrous that human's talent was, it was impossible for him to kill a veteran Ninth Rank Peak in such a short time!

“It seems that in this civilization, besides the Demon Race, there are other races. This race must come from a second-level civilization!” the voice said.

“That is likely the only explanation.”

The Space Demon God said solemnly, “A variable has appeared in the fixed order; this is not a good omen!”

“Heh, interesting. It seems this game of chess has come alive,” the voice said playfully.

The Space Demon God glanced at it and asked coolly, “Are you sure everything is foolproof?”

The voice affirmed, “In the face of absolute strength, all methods are futile.”

“My race is far stronger than your Demon Race!”

A strange look flashed in the Space Demon God's eyes. “I hope so.”

“However, we still need to be cautious. Let's not delay; to avoid further complications, let's just begin!”

The Space Demon God stood up and said calmly, “Very well! What must come will come sooner or later. Then, let the feast begin!”

Shua!

Its body twisted and then disappeared from the spot.

A moment later, the Space Demon God's voice resounded throughout the Demon Realm: “All demons, heed my command! Exterminate the humans and usher in a prosperous age!”

Shua!

Upon hearing this voice, all the demons began to seethe with excitement!

They had long been prepared. The moment the Space Demon God's order was given, it was met with waves of beastly roars!

The demon army charged toward the humans!

At the same time, a voice spoke up, “Isn't this a bit rushed?”

The Space Demon God said calmly, “Night Demon is dead; a variable has appeared.”

Silence fell around them, then a voice said, “Fine.”

The Space Demon God glanced at a certain spot and asked playfully, “Will this disrupt your plans?”

The Gluttonous God's voice came through, devoid of emotion. “It matters not. The outcome is already decided.”

Hearing this, the Space Demon God narrowed its eyes.

It seemed this Gluttonous God was already prepared.

But then again, wasn't it the same?

Rumble!

Countless streams of demonic energy surged from the Demon Realm. They had only one target: the humans' final line of defense, the Dragon Kingdom!

At this moment in the Dragon Kingdom, everyone felt something.

“They're coming!”
