200: The Demon Emperor appears, the Emperor dies?

“Perhaps, this is what they call, offering one’s neck to be slaughtered.” Meng Yun brought his sword down on the kneeling Demon Race cultivators, who were unable to rise due to the Emperor’s Edict.

Decapitated.

A tinygroup of Demon Seed Flesh was extracted by him. Although it was just a minuscule amount, as long as he collected enough, quantitative change could lead to qualitative change!

Demon Race weapons littered the ground. Many unarmed Human Race cultivators each picked up a suitable one and charged towards the Demon Race cultivators.

Lower-strength Demon Race cultivators could only kneel on the ground, offering their necks to be slaughtered.

Even those with superior strength, who could resist the Emperor’s Edict and not kneel, were restricted by the edict of “do not indiscriminately kill the innocent,” and thus could not launch fatal attacks on Human Race cultivators.

In the first encounter of the initial clash, Southern Palace East maximized the home-field advantage, ending it with an overwhelming victory for the Human Race cultivators.

“Hehe, I’ve also become a hero who slayed Demon Seed troops!”

“Look! I got a Nascent Soul-level magic treasure!”

“If I can escape this place alive, I will personally go to Xuanwu Heaven to avenge this blood feud!”

What a seasoned general, with flags stuck all over the stage!

Innumerable shouts of victory diluted the original despair and panic, making people mistakenly believe that the crisis had been resolved.

But anyone with a discerning eye knew that this was merely the Demon Race vanguard, at most, an appetizer!

“Don’t be careless.”

Meng Yun casually slew a Demon Race cultivator. Due to its excessively hard body, even his standardized longsword shattered at the hilt.

“Die die die die die! Kill kill kill!!!”

Suddenly, a roar inexplicably rang out.

Meng Yun looked up and saw Chen Jintong holding a string of white jade prayer beads, continuously throwing them out like cannonballs.

Each prayer bead accurately and flawlessly took the life of a Demon Race invader.

“Physical super-transcendence counts as super-transcendence, right?” Meng Yun quipped.

“He, where does he get so much resentment towards the Demon Race?” Nangong Jing, panting, also stopped beside Meng Yun, then asked.

“Isn’t everyone like this?” Meng Yun blurted out.

“No, many of us had never seen the Demon Race before today,” Nangong Jing said, puzzled.

“Oh, alright.” Meng Yun nodded.

Indeed, he shouldn't use his own experiences to seek common ground with others.

The people around him believed that Demon Seeds should be exterminated by everyone.

But in reality, more ordinary cultivators, even throughout their entire lives, had never witnessed the apocalyptic devastation of the Demon Race passing through.

“It seems this Chen Jintong is also a person with a story…” Meng Yun looked at Chen Jintong, who had a record of 1000/0/0, practically a godlike performance, his eyes flickering.

You are the true Dynasty Warriors!

That’s strange then.

Why, twenty years later, would Saint Golden Toad willingly become a lackey of the Three Saints Palace, painstakingly pursuing the “saint relics” they spoke of?

That was Demon Seed Flesh!

“Cicada, if you don’t stop, your ninth ring scar is going to appear!” Meng Yun roared.

“None of your business!!” Chen Jintong’s voice was low, his eyes bloodshot, still searching for powerful Demon Seed cultivators to slay!

Such was the situation on the ground.

The struggle in the sky was even more intense.

Southern Palace East, to maintain the Emperor’s Edict, had no time to launch other attacks and instead needed Western Gate Clear’s close protection.

Countless sword talismans floated around Western Gate Clear, slaying all who attempted to ambush Southern Palace East on the spot!

Blood stained the sky!

Whether they were Soul Transformation, Body Integration, or even ordinary Tribulation Transcenders, they all became countless Demon Race corpses falling down.

Heads rolled, blood flowed like a river!

They continuously fought and charged here, but Saint Wuxu, a Grand Ascension expert, was leisurely standing aside, uninvolved in the affairs.

He merely released his Grand Ascension pressure, and within a thousand meters of him, no enemy dared to approach.

Don’t ask, if you ask, he’s on alert for strong enemies.

A true big shot must remain still to control the situation!

Buzz~

The void suddenly rippled, like a string plucked by an invisible finger, or a lake into which a stone was abruptly dropped.

Saint Wuxu’s pupils contracted sharply, and his body retreated a hundred zhang, shielding everyone in front of him—this action, in the eyes of others, looked like a loyal minister forced back by a sudden attack.

Saint Wuxu’s face was panicked, and he hurriedly formed a defensive array: “Not good, it’s the aura of a Grand Ascension Demon Emperor!!”

“Your Majesty, be careful!” Western Gate Clear summoned his life-bound sword talisman, but then saw Southern Palace East’s chest suddenly burst open with blood!!

“Crack.”

In the nick of time, the Emperor’s Jade Seal, to protect its master, actively protected him with its life-bound artifact spirit.

Countless cracks spread across the Jade Seal, and then, under the astonished gazes of everyone, it shattered into dust.

“Oh? You didn’t die?”

The figure of the Grand Ascension Demon Emperor then materialized outside the Heavenly Sword Grand Formation.

He would not easily step into the formation. Otherwise, his strength would also be forcibly suppressed to the Tribulation Transcender level.

Although many of his abilities were reduced to less than one-tenth outside the formation, stepping into the formation was tantamount to risking his life.

It wasn’t worth the loss.

The Demon Emperor wore a scarlet helmet, and his robust body was entirely encased in armor, looking majestic.

Spatial law ripples still lingered on his fingertips. That “Instant Kill” move just now was him utilizing the form of spatial law to penetrate layers of space and attack Southern Palace East!

If not for the Emperor’s Jade Seal sacrificing itself for his life, Southern Palace East would probably have died on the spot!

“Father!”

Nangong Jing turned pale with fright, but her scream was drowned out by the roars of the Demon Race.

The Demon Race cultivators who had been kneeling suddenly erupted. Although unarmed, their sharp claws could still tear open the throats of unprepared Human Race cultivators.

Columns of blood shot into the sky, condensing into grotesque demonic patterns in the void.

The Emperor’s Jade Seal shattered.

The Emperor’s Edict became ineffective.

Countless Demon Race cultivators rose, grabbed their weapons, and fiercely attacked the Human Race cultivators!

“Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!”

Meng Yun dragged Nangong Jing back rapidly. The Seven-Colored Tribulation Lightning Tiger bit off three Demon General heads and spat them aside.

Chen Jintong’s string of white jade prayer beads suddenly exploded, and eighteen beads transformed into streaks of light, clearing a vacuum around them.

But, the Demon Race cultivators were endless.

“Save… save me!” A certain Golden Core cultivator had his Dantian pierced by a demonic claw, and the Demon Race battle-axe he had just acquired flew out of his hand.

His fellow disciples behind him tried to form an array, but they were cut in half at the waist by a teleporting Demon General—after the Emperor’s Edict disappeared, these bloodthirsty beasts could finally unleash their full strength.

Western Gate Clear vomited blood and flew backward, most of his life-bound sword talismans shattered. He watched helplessly as a Body Integration elder was crushed by the Demon Emperor from a distance, his flesh and blood condensing in mid-air, a drop of Demon Seed blood spilling, becoming a culture medium for Demon Seed Flesh!

Countless flesh and blood took root and sprouted there, rapidly growing, and then each flew out, searching for suitable parasitic prey!

“Still want to parasitize me?”

Meng Yun inverted the Heaven and Earth Smelting Furnace Cauldron over their three heads. Golden-red flames temporarily forced back the demonic energy. He pulled out the ball of Demon Seed Flesh from hisPregnant—the hundreds of portions he had just collected were now frantically wriggling, synthesizing into a massive ball of flesh inside the cauldron!

Amidst the changes, a strange array diagram was slowly forming!
