The mastermind behind the scenes starting with the calamity of all races

If we can hold on for just over a minute longer, reinforcements will arrive. In that time, whoever is lucky might survive, but if they are unlucky enough to be targeted, there's nothing that can be done; everyone will be struggling to survive.

outside world.

With the revelation of Yue Hao and Yue Qin, the outside world was instantly in an uproar. The four quasi-kings were already surprising enough, but now two more celestial venerables have appeared, which shows that the strength of the Prison King lineage is far more than that.

Judging from the style of the Prison King lineage over the past 100,000 years, their true strength would never be fully revealed so easily. What they are seeing now is definitely only a part of it!

On the road.

Dao Tianzun and the others also received the message, and their expressions were somewhat solemn.

"Fellow Daoists, what do you think?" Dao Tianzun asked in a deep voice.

The Heavenly Venerable's eyes were somewhat gloomy, and his heart was heavy. "The lineage of the Prison King is definitely much stronger than we imagined. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it is the number one power in all the heavens."

"Hmph, they really have some clever methods!" Moon Celestial Venerable sneered. "In my opinion, they have been secretly making many moves over the past 100,000 years. I'm afraid they have instigated quite a few battles between us and the human race."

Moon Celestial Venerable glanced at the group and continued, "They have been secretly accumulating strength, watching us and the human race suffer mutual losses. Now that they have emerged, they must have made preparations, otherwise they would never dare to be so high-profile!"

Dao Tianzun's face darkened. "This time, I'm afraid we'll need to awaken a few more fellow Daoists. With just the four of us, it's unlikely we can accomplish anything."

After saying that, he glanced at Sanyue and Tianminghou. These two were unwilling to come out. Otherwise, the six of them could try to see if they could destroy the Prison King's lineage.

In March, she completely ignored his gaze and kept gnawing on a bamboo stalk.

Marquis Tianming kept his head down, focused on his journey, as if he hadn't heard Dao Tianzun and the others' conversation.

"Humph!"

Dao Tianzun was very dissatisfied with the two of them, but he was helpless.

At this moment, the Underworld Celestial Venerable spoke up: "The Dragon Clan, Phoenix Clan, Spirit Clan... Kunpeng Clan, Three-Headed Demon Wolf Clan, and so on—where are their top experts? Are they all dead?"

Some of the major clans were named one by one by the Underworld Lord.

Dao Tianzun and the other two shook their heads slightly. "It's been a long time since we've seen them. We don't know if they've perished or are in a deep slumber. If they're still alive, they must all be within the Dao Source Land, perhaps..."

Dao Tianzun only spoke half of what he said, as if he had some reservations.

"Hmm?" Yue Tianzun asked, "You don't mean to say that you want to clean up the entire Dao Source Land, do you?"

Both Mo Tianzun and Ming Tianzun were startled, and Sanyue and Tianming Hou couldn't help but look over as well.

"No, no, no," Dao Tianzun shook his head repeatedly, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, "It's not enough to just clean up one Dao Source Land. It would be best to clean up the entire Upper Realm and see how many monsters and demons are still hiding there. We don't want another Prison King lineage to suddenly appear."

"Moreover, we can take this opportunity to get rid of the remaining humans as well, so as to prevent them from joining the Prison King's faction. At the same time, we don't have to worry about them making any underhanded moves while we are at war with the Prison King's faction."

Finally, Dao Tianzun said quietly, "Everyone, don't forget, Bai Zhan is not dead yet... Don't let the lineage of the Prison King be left unresolved, only to have Bai Zhan released by the remnants of the human race. If that happens, we will be the ones who suffer."

“Not necessarily,” said the Celestial Lord. “During the last tide, Bai Zhan was tricked by the Prison King’s lineage and was eventually sealed by us. The Prison King’s lineage also put in a lot of effort during this process. Now that Bai Zhan is unsealed, who knows who he might cause trouble for.”

indeed!

Dao Tianzun and the others looked at each other with some strange expressions. Based on their understanding of Bai Zhan, the probability that Bai Zhan would go to cause trouble for the Prison King's lineage as soon as he was unsealed was greater than that of them.

For someone with Bai Zhan's personality, the thing he finds most intolerable and hates most is betrayal.

Back then, he was betrayed by a woman. Now it seems that woman must have come from the lineage of the Prison King, otherwise there would be no other human among them.

However... they dared not gamble. What if Bai Zhan lost his mind and not only ignored the Prison King's lineage but also insisted on fighting them to the death?

Therefore, they will not only refrain from releasing Bai Zhan voluntarily, but also prevent others from taking the opportunity to unseal Bai Zhan.

Bai Zhan is incredibly powerful. No matter who he targets first, it will be a headache for all races, because Bai Zhan will eventually come after them.

"Leaving aside the hundred battles for now, given the current situation, purging the upper realm is imperative. However, this might cause resentment among the other races if they don't cooperate..."

As he spoke, the Heavenly Venerable of the Underworld frowned, forming a deep frown.

"Hmph!" Mo Tianzun snorted coldly, his eyes sharp and domineering, "As long as we few families reach a consensus, what does it matter if other races have objections?! My Demon Clan agrees to this matter. Lunar Eclipse Marquis, what does your God Clan say?"

The idea of ​​cleaning up the upper realm was proposed by Dao Tianzun, and Mo Tianzun also expressed his approval. Now it's up to the gods.

Once the immortals, gods, and demons reach an agreement, the opinions of other races become less important, and no one can resist the alliance of the three races.

Over there, Yue Tianzun fell into deep thought, his eyes flickering uncertainly, and he did not immediately express his opinion. The others just watched him.

The ancient title of the Moon Celestial was Marquis of Lunar Eclipse.

It is worth mentioning that the gods also have a Sun Celestial Lord, whose title is Marquis of the Sun Eclipse, but he is currently still asleep.

Beside them, Sanyue and Tianminghou exchanged a glance. They both felt something was amiss. If the three races reached an agreement to cleanse the Upper Realm, they would surely take advantage of the situation to unite all the races into one. At that time, the Iron-Eating Race and the Fate Race would probably not be able to escape either.

"Ahem, well, I don't think it's necessary to make such a fuss, is it? The other person is sleeping peacefully, why do we have to dig them out? What if they are at the critical moment of breakthrough and we accidentally affect them? Wouldn't that create a deadly feud?" March said naively.

Marquis Tianming was silent for a few seconds before saying, "You gentlemen are indeed making a mountain out of a molehill. The lineage of the Prison King is already a once-in-a-hundred-thousand-years phenomenon. How can there be so many people hiding? Besides, if we accidentally uncover some acquaintances, we'll offend people."

Dao Tianzun glanced at the two of them. "It seems you two don't quite agree?"

"No, I was just expressing my opinion," Marquis Tianming said with a faint smile.

Dao Tianzun withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Yue Tianzun. The opinions of Tianming Hou and Sanyue were not important. As he said before, it was enough as long as the three races reached a consensus.

At this moment, Venerable Yue finally spoke. He smiled and said, "I personally tend to agree with this matter, but we still need to discuss the specifics further. Let's not discuss it now and talk about it after we've resolved the current issues. What do you fellow Daoists think?"

After thinking for a while, the group said, "Alright, let's find out about the Prison King's lineage first."

Just as they finished their conversation, Immortal War Marquis perished.

Previously, Dao Tianzun hadn't paid much attention to the fall of a Dao-Merging Immortal, but now, he couldn't help but get angry.

"Damn the Prison King lineage!" Dao Tianzun cursed angrily.

The others also looked grim, and the situation on the field began to collapse like dominoes.

Dou Ke and You Zhen, two quasi-kings, along with eight other Dao Integration Realm cultivators from the Prison King lineage, launched a manhunt for the ordinary Dao Integration Realm cultivators of the Immortal and Divine races.

Another one separated and joined the battle between the Night Rhino and "Marquis Dingjun".

Over there, the battle between Yue Hao and Shan Ling Hou was extremely fierce. Shan Ling Hou's strength was already close to that of a Heavenly Venerable, so it would not be something that Yue Hao could do in a short time.

"Yueqin, don't delay any longer, let's deal with the two quasi-kings of the Underworld Clan together!"

Yuehao glanced at the leisurely Yueqin and couldn't help but say something.

I don't know what Yueqin is up to. She's already exposed. Why isn't she taking care of the enemy and waiting for reinforcements to arrive?

If they don't seize this opportunity, it won't be so easy for the myriad races to be on guard next time, and they want to inflict heavy damage on them again.

Now that we've been exposed, let's maximize our gains by keeping all of Shanling Hou and his ilk alive and burying them all in Chaos Mountain.

Upon hearing this, Yueqin knew she had to go all out.

"Yu Xi, Zi Shui, you two cooperate with me!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Yueqin instantly appeared near Mingle and the other person. She struck out with a palm, her hand burning with hellfire. Even from a distance, Mingle and the other person could feel the bone-chilling cold.

Yes, hellfire is different from regular scorching flames. It is a cold, black flame. Once it touches a person or object, it is like a man-eating beast, clinging to the bone like maggots, until it engulfs you and burns you to ashes.

The most terrifying thing is that it can even burn the Great Road, and once you are tainted by it, it will be very difficult to get rid of it.

Not only that, Yueqin also controlled the black chains to block Mingle and the other two, giving them no chance to escape.

As Yueqin unleashed her full power, the speed of the black chains instantly doubled, making it even more difficult for Mingle and the other to dodge.

"what!"

Suddenly, a scream came from the underworld.

Ming Le looked up instantly and saw a black chain piercing through Ming Tu. Other chains quickly followed, like sharks smelling blood, swarming forward. In the blink of an eye, a chain wrapped around Ming Tu's hands, feet, and neck, and another chain pierced through his chest. He was thus locked in the void, like a lamb to the slaughter.

At the same time, the icy, bone-chilling black flames continued to fall upon him.

"Ming Le, save me!"

The underworld roared in terror.

Ming Le's expression changed, and she was about to rush towards him.

However, their opponent was not just Yueqin alone.

Yu Xi and Zi Shui stood side by side, blocking Ming Le's path. Yu Xi said coldly, "Sorry, this road is blocked."

Before Ming Le could say anything, another scream came from Ming Tu. Black flames surrounded him and burned him madly. Ming Tu tried to twist and struggle, but he was now firmly locked up and could do nothing but scream.

He wanted to self-destruct, but it was impossible. The black chains contained the power of imprisonment and sealing, which prevented him from even self-destructing. He could only let the hellfire burn him.

"No!"

Ming Le roared, "Get out of my way!"

Bang bang bang!

Ming Le launched a frenzied attack on Yu Xi and the other woman, but it was all in vain. Yu Xi and the other woman worked together to deal with Ming Le with ease, and no matter how crazy Ming Le was, she could not get past them.

And so, the underworld was burned to ashes little by little before the music of the underworld, leaving only a pile of black residue.

This entire process takes no more than twenty seconds, demonstrating the power of hellfire.

Of course, the main reason was that Mingtu was locked up by black chains and could not resist at all. Even the Great Dao on his body was locked up and could not be used, which led to his demise.

Over there, Yueqin stood in the void, slightly panting. Even with her formidable strength, the burden of using the Gates of Hell was too great, especially when she was pushing it to its full potential, which caused the consumption to increase exponentially.

While the Gates of Hell are powerful, their drawbacks are also obvious.

First, the cultivation difficulty is high, only slightly easier than opening the Heavenly Gate;

Secondly, it has a high load and high consumption, and ordinary people simply cannot use it. Even if they could, they could not last long.

Third, it is easily damaged and has a huge backlash. Every time the Gates of Hell are used, there is a great risk. Once the enemy seizes the opportunity and damages the Gates of Hell, they will also suffer a severe backlash.

It is precisely because of the second and third points that they generally do not use the Gates of Hell.
