Digimon: I really didn't want to be the Digimon Emperor!

……

The Rising Digimon responded in unison, their various skills weaving a dazzling web of firepower in the air. Dark Gears exploded one after another, but many still managed to break through the defenses and pierce into ZombieSatanmon's body.

"You ignorant fools!" The roar of the zombie Satanmon shook the ground, its skeletal face contorted with rage. It had intended to crush these troublesome growth-stage ants, but was thwarted by the desperate attacks of several mature Digimon.

The Zombie Satanmon roared and swung its claws, unleashing a torrent of viscous dark energy. Although its evolution was not yet complete, the power displayed by the semi-complete Zombie Satanmon was already terrifying.

Cheng Yuan watched helplessly as the burly man from Xu Xin's team was sent flying with a single swipe of his claws; his prized petrified feathers were as fragile as paper in the face of absolute power. The Armored Beast attempted to withstand the attack with its steel body, but was lifted up by the Zombie Satan Beast with one hand and slammed to the ground like trash. The Skyhawk Beast spread its wings and swooped down to rescue him, but a beam of dark energy pierced through its wings, causing it to fall with a mournful cry.

"This power... is terrifying..." Cheng Yuan unconsciously swallowed, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.

These normally imposing Champion-level Digimon were utterly helpless against ZombieSatanmon. Only DarkGreymon managed to hold on thanks to the defensive enhancements from Xu Xin's Arc Machine, but each clash left it with shocking scars, and the Arc Machine, constantly operating at over-powered limits, had already burned Xu Xin's right hand bright red.

“If this continues…” Cheng Yuan bit his lower lip hard until he tasted the rust. The little beast in his arms was panting heavily, and the light of the Holy Ring had dimmed considerably, but it was still relentlessly releasing holy light bullets, and had already successfully intercepted dozens of dark gears.

Cheng Yuan stumbled through the wreckage of musical instruments scattered on the ground and rushed towards the center stage. He found the "beast wall" being formed by Star Beasts and Piece Beasts and sheltered the unconscious Yun Yao in the middle. The girl's pale face still had traces of stage makeup sequins, and her eyelashes cast shimmering shadows under the lights.

"Take her away quickly!" Star Beast's voice was filled with anxiety; its golden body was already covered in wounds.

"Pull out the film! Pull out the film!"

Cheng Yuan carefully lifted Yun Yao's neck and knees; the girl was even lighter than he had imagined.

Just as he turned around, Yun Yao's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her hazy eyes met his gaze, but she quickly closed them again weakly.

Below the stage, the battle situation had taken a sharp turn for the worse. Cheng Yuan watched as one Champion-level Digimon after another fell under the onslaught of Zombie Satanmon, his heart nearly leaping out of his chest.

He carried Yunyao through the chaotic crowd until he saw paramedics in white coats, then handed her over to them with a sigh of relief.

"Please." Cheng Yuan said briefly, then turned around and summoned the little dog beast. Although the light of the Sacred Ring had dimmed, his azure eyes remained firm.

They must race against time; every intercepted Dark Gear could change the course of the battle.

However, when he looked back at the main battlefield inside the protective shield, he was shocked.

Just as DarkGreymon was about to unleash its Super Corrosive Flame, Death Claw grabbed its neck! Super Flame was about to explode inside its throat!

At this critical moment, a piercing buzzing sound suddenly came from the dome of the arena.

Cheng Yuan looked up and saw a silver figure streak across the sky like a meteor, the spiral sword gleaming coldly in the sunlight.

“That is…” Cheng Yuan’s eyes widened.

"A 50/50 beast!"

A streak of silver lightning ripped through the sky, and Andromon descended from the heavens with the force of thunder!

The right-arm spiral sword struck the Death Bone Claw's joint with precision, blinding sparks and the ear-piercing sound of metal breaking echoing throughout the arena. The severed bone claw crashed heavily to the ground, kicking up clouds of dust.

As the smoke cleared, Cheng Yuan finally saw the stunningly beautiful mecha warrior—its streamlined silver armor gleamed with a cold metallic sheen in the sunlight, the red five-pointed star sheriff's badge in the center of its breastplate shone brightly, and the spiral sword on its right arm spun rapidly, emitting a chilling hum.

DarkGreymon seized the fleeting opportunity, unleashing a burst of super-cold flame that had been building up in its throat, instantly incinerating the two Calamitymon that were waiting for a chance to strike into data dust.

"You've come at just the right time." Xu Xin's voice came from not far away, and a hint of relief could be seen on Xu Xin's usually calm face.

"Sheriff Digimon Andromon, officially taking over the battlefield." The Mechwarper's voice came through the built-in speakers, each syllable carrying the cold, hard texture unique to metal, yet containing an undeniable authority.

"Gatling gun!" Andromon's left arm armor suddenly unfolded, spitting out a ferocious tongue of fire, accurately shooting down the small demon beast swarm and Dark Gear that were darting around in the sky.

Cheng Yuan couldn't help but smile: "A Perfect-level Andromon... This is truly a godsend."

But then he remembered his impression of this "King of 50/50" from his past life, and thought to himself: "Delaying time is definitely not a problem, but to completely defeat Zombie Satanmon is probably..." He recalled the classic scene in the anime where Andromon could fight any opponent to a standstill.

As Cheng Yuan had predicted, the battle between Andromon and ZombieSatanmon quickly became a stalemate.

Each collision between the Spiral Sword and the Death Bone Claw exploded in the air with dazzling sparks, and the clash between missiles and dark energy released brilliant energy fireworks under the dome.

The two Digimon moved so fast it was dazzling. Two afterimages, one in shades of yellow and the other in shades of blood, constantly intersected, separated, and collided again in the center of the arena.

The still-settled tamers raised their Raptors to scan the suddenly appearing mecha warrior, only to find that the image database showed "no data recorded".

This mysterious silver warrior is able to stand up to the terrifying zombie Satan, rekindling hope in the hearts of the desperate.

"As expected of the king of evenly matched battles..." Cheng Yuan had just sighed inwardly when he saw Andro's breastplate suddenly crack open, revealing two rows of gleaming missile launch ports.

"Justice Missiles!" Two specially designed missiles, trailing blue flames, shot straight into the sky, accurately hitting the last Calamity Beast. The violent explosion shook the entire area.

"Continue the evacuation! Maintain order!" Zhao Zheng's deep voice resounded throughout the area through Andromon's external speaker system: "Proceed according to plan."

Xu Xin suddenly turned around and looked at the woman behind him who was silently watching the battle.

Cheng Yuan had noticed her before—she was wearing an elegant horse-face skirt, and her snow-white stand-up collar shirt made her look even more refined. Only then did Cheng Yuan notice that, despite the chaotic scene, her clothes were completely spotless.

"Sister Xiaochun, it's time for the Twelve Divine Generals to close the net."

Xu Xin's voice conveyed a respect that Cheng Yuan had never heard before.

The woman called "Sister Xiaochun" smiled slightly, like a plum blossom just beginning to bloom—reserved yet full of power. She slowly took out an old-fashioned Tyrannosaurus Rex from her bosom, the ancient runes engraved on the body swirling with a mysterious glow under the light.

"Go, Jade Rabbit Beast!"

Chapter 76 The Complete Chaos Battle: Cheng Yuan's Crisis

The ancient Tyrannosaurus Rex emitted a dazzling light, and the Jade Rabbit Beast gracefully appeared under the moonlight.

The bright moonlight poured down like water, instantly dispelling the dark energy that had lingered in the music square.

Cheng Yuan narrowed his eyes and saw the silver-white figure land lightly—long rabbit ears stood up high, and gray and white fur trembled slightly in the energy fluctuations. Despite its cute appearance, its crimson-gold eyes were sharp as knives, exuding an inviolable majesty.

"That's... the Jade Rabbit Beast of the Twelve Divine Generals?" someone exclaimed in a low voice not far away.

Cheng Yuan turned to look at the source of the voice: "What are the Twelve Divine Generals?"

"The twelve strongest Digimon of the Eastern Kingdom."

Wang Lin was standing beside him at some point. Her flying insect beast was lying on the ground, severely injured, panting against the wall. "Each one has the strength of a fully grown beast. They usually guard the dark area and rarely go out."

Cheng Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and his gaze refocused on the Jade Rabbit Beast. He saw its ears twitching slightly, as if it were receiving some kind of command.

"Sister Xiaochun, please." Xu Xin's voice came from not far away.

The woman known as "Sister Xiaochun"—one of the high-ranking members of the Beast Tamer Association—nodded slightly and waved her hand: "Jade Rabbit Beast, subdue it!"

The Jade Rabbit's figure suddenly blurred, and the next second it appeared in front of the Zombie Satan Beast.

"Roar!"

The roar of the zombie Satan Beast was like a thunderclap, shaking the entire music plaza.

Its still-evolving body data fluctuated violently, and the black core on its chest flickered erratically as if short-circuited, wildly switching between gray and pitch black.

"Get out of my way!" it roared, swinging its bone claws to forcefully block Andromon's spiral sword parry.

The bat wings, which had been gathering black mist, suddenly flapped, stirring up a gust of foul wind that carried the stench of decay, causing the surrounding seats to sway and tilt.

"A thousand axes chop!"

The Jade Rabbit Beast's snow-white ears suddenly stood up, and its two paws gleamed silver in the moonlight, instantly transforming into two giant silver-gray axes attached to its arms.

Its figure transformed into a streak of silver lightning, weaving through the zombie Satanic beast at a speed too fast for the naked eye to follow. Each flash of the axe left a scorched mark on the evil bone staff, filling the air with a pungent, burnt smell.

Andromon seized the opportunity and quickly retreated. Its chest armor popped open with a "click," revealing two rows of neatly arranged missile launch ports.

A mechanical voice calmly rang out: "Justice missiles, launch all of them!"

Two missiles roared out, trailing blue flames, precisely blocking all of the zombie Satan Beast's escape routes.

The explosion sent flames shooting into the sky, and the shockwave hurled all the debris from the ground.

The zombie Satan was violently thrown to the ground, and a shocking crack appeared in its hideous demon mask.

"Beautiful!" Cheng Yuan clenched his fist excitedly, his knuckles turning white. The little dog also waved its paws excitedly, its sacred ring glowing slightly with excitement.

The zombie Satan Beast struggled to get up, but its incompletely evolved body clearly couldn't keep up with its consciousness.

The data flow beneath the mask was chaotic, and its movements became slow and stiff.

In that brief moment, the Jade Rabbit's axe flashed like a cascading galaxy, precisely slicing off a corner of its right bat wing.

"His-"

Black, misty blood spurted out, corroding the ground and creating small, smoky pits.

The zombie Satanic beast let out a painful roar, and viscous black liquid kept seeping out from the cracks.

Suddenly, it slammed its claws heavily onto the ground, and dark energy spread outwards like a tsunami. The ground was torn apart, and black flames spewed out from the cracks, turning a ten-meter radius into a sea of ​​fire.

Cheng Yuan quickly picked up the little dog and retreated rapidly, the scorching heat almost burning his cheeks.

"Is this what a fully-fledged battle is like...?"

The Jade Rabbit Beast's fighting style is a blend of strength and grace, sometimes dodging with the elegance of flowing water, and sometimes striking with the force of steel. What the Zombie Satan Beast fears most is that the blades of its two giant axes are imbued with a divine aura, and each strike causes the Zombie Satan Beast's dark energy to sizzle and burn.

Just when the battle seemed to be turning in one direction, a cunning glint suddenly flashed in the crimson eyes of the zombie Satan Beast.

It suddenly spread its tattered bat wings and unleashed [Night Demon Assault]! Thousands of bat-shaped black shadows surged out, forming a black tornado that forcibly forced the two Digimon back.

Taking advantage of this lull, it grinned and raised its bone staff, the tip of which began to gather terrifying crimson energy—the [Magic Beam Cannon] was charging up, and its target was none other than the group of professional beast tamers standing together. Its target was the group of professional beast tamers who were gathered together, led by "Sister Xiaochun".

"Die, all of you!" the zombie Satanic beast roared maniacally, the energy sphere on its bone staff swelling to a terrifying degree. At this critical moment—

"Wang!"

A clear bark from a dog pierced the sky.

The Puppy Beast's [Puppy Roar] transformed into a golden sound wave, accurately striking the Zombie Satan Beast's bone claw wielding the staff!

Divine energy and dark power collided violently, erupting in a blinding flash. The zombie Satan Beast's body swayed violently, its half-charged attack abruptly interrupted!

"This is impossible!" It looked down at its trembling bone claws, then abruptly turned to the small white figure, its skeletal face contorted in shock. "How could a mere growth stage... possibly interrupt my skill?!"

This unexpected turn of events brought an instant silence to the battlefield, everyone staring in disbelief at the brave little dogmon. ZombieSatanmon's mistake was fleeting, but in a battle at the Ultimate level, this blunder was fatal enough...

Jade Rabbit Beast seized the opportunity, darted close, and used a locking technique imbued with divine energy to firmly lock Zombie Satan Beast's joints.

At the same time, Andromon hugged ZombieSatanmon tightly from behind, his arms crackling with electricity, the power turned up to the maximum.

Just as Jade Rabbit Beast and Andromon joined forces to completely imprison Zombie Satanmon, "Boom—"

A deafening roar suddenly came from the sky.

Cheng Yuan looked up and saw the thick clouds being torn apart by a bolt of silver lightning—

It was a colossal vessel, its design a perfect fusion of an ancient giant bird and modern technology. The silver-gray streamlined hull gleamed with a cold metallic luster in the sunlight, and the energy sails that unfurled on both sides resembled the wings of a mythical phoenix, each vibration unleashing a data storm.

“It’s the Association’s Ark!” Wang Lin’s voice trembled slightly with excitement. “It’s about to end… It’s a ‘digital chain sealing matrix’ built with the wisdom of millions of top programmers.”

Xu Xin's voice rang out on the Turbo Rifle's public channel, "All personnel must evacuate the danger zone immediately!"

The bottom of the ark slowly opened, revealing a golden coffin made entirely of a mysterious alloy.

Surprisingly, thousands of digital chains glowing with a bluish light flew out from the opened golden coffin. Each chain was materialized from pure data streams, with dazzling digital runes engraved on its surface.

These chains, like living serpents, precisely coiled around every inch of the zombie Satanic beast's bones.

"Sizzle—" The chains retracted with a sickening metallic scraping sound, forcefully forcing the overflowing dark energy back into the zombie Satan beast's body. Runes lit up one after another, forming a tight sealing network.

"No—!" The zombie Satan beast let out a heart-wrenching roar, which made Cheng Yuan's eardrums ache.

It struggled frantically, its bone claws tearing at the chains. The demon mask shattered completely in the violent struggle, revealing a ferocious red skull beneath.

The inner walls of the golden coffin were densely engraved with programming languages, each line shimmering with blue light. This was the ultimate product combining modern technology with the technology of the digital world.

The chains tightened, and the zombie Satan's bones creaked under the strain. It was dragged little by little toward the golden coffin, the energy of the black core being suppressed layer by layer by the chains.

Just as he was about to be dragged into the golden coffin, the Zombie Satan Beast suddenly roared, "You think this is the end?!"

Its black core melted instantly, turning into a jet-black wave that shot straight toward the little dog beast that Cheng Yuan was holding!

The attack came too fast; Cheng Yuan had no time to think.

He instinctively turned around and forcefully threw the puppy beast to a safe area, but he was hit in the back by the dark wave, which surged into his body.

Cheng Yuan's world was reduced to blackness, and amidst a chorus of shocked gazes, he collapsed straight to the ground.

Through the cracks in the golden coffin, the zombie Satan extended his scarlet bone fingers and pointed at the monstrous creature. "You're too happy too soon! I will definitely return for revenge! I will sow the seeds of despair in Belial Castle and destroy this world! You wait!!!"

"boom!"

The golden coffin was tightly closed.

Chapter 77 The Dark Seed

The silence reached Su-jun Square.
