However, the next moment, even more ancient demon kings appeared, numbering over sixty, and the scene became tense. Their momentum was no weaker than the total number of powerful figures who had come to the meeting.

The six or seven powerful figures who were originally standing at a distance were all intentionally or unintentionally, or even openly, moving closer to the demon race. It was obvious that they had leaked information to the demon race beforehand.

Among them are the original blood bat progenitor who dwells in darkness, the two-faced monster, and Lucas, the black winged dragon from Western mythology, etc.

"Fellow Daoist, did you invite them too?" Yaochi Master transmitted her voice to Jiang Mo, who was only a dozen meters away to the left.

"You've come uninvited; you're here to cause me trouble."

Jiang Mo smiled faintly, his gaze focusing on the area behind the crowd in the middle. A surging aura, overlooking the Thirty-Three Heavens and controlling the universe, was slowly revealed. It was none other than the Sun-Devouring Demon Emperor, whom he had never met before and who was suspected to have lived for more than two thousand years.

"Boom!!!"

Suddenly, the void shattered, and terrifying and chilling illusions of the underworld instantly enveloped an area of ​​tens of thousands of miles, as if dragging many powerful figures into a dark purgatory. The biting cold and dense baleful aura were everywhere, making people disgusted and fearful.

An ancient demon gate appeared out of thin air and then opened from the inside out, allowing more than ten figures to walk out. The envoys of the Sunset Royal Court, who had infiltrated from outside the Heavenly Abyss, accompanied the Sun-Devouring Demon Emperor.

For a moment, the entire world fell silent. The old man, dressed in a black and gold imperial robe and wearing an imperial crown, with a majestic face and eyes that contained a sharpness like the sun, seemed like a supreme god from mythology.

As its gaze swept across the boundless land, many powerful figures felt a chill run down their spines.

Who on earth is this? !

The weaker overseas experts were already suffocating, their faces changed drastically, their legs trembled, and they were under unimaginable pressure, as if countless massive mountains were pressing down on them.

Even the masters of the Kyushu sects were not spared. Faced with the Demon Emperor's pressure, many of them looked solemn. They were hit immediately and almost suffered internal injuries. Blood trickled from the corners of their mouths, but disappeared in an instant.

Within this bizarre illusion, everyone was suppressed, and their life energy was silently draining away.

"I've heard that the Xuanzun of the human race has urgently summoned the world's strongest to gather here. I wonder if my arrival has disrupted your plans?"

The Sun-Devouring Demon King had a gentle expression and a smile on his lips. He glanced at the Wolf King and the Old Dragon King on the opposite side, knowing their choice, but he was not angry and maintained a casual attitude.

With just a glance, its gaze met Jiang Mo's across the distance, gradually becoming sharper.

A howling gale arose around them, and two completely different pressures competed for supremacy, causing the other masters and powerful figures to suffer, each of them feeling as if they were on the verge of an abyss, their lives hanging by a thread.

"Since you want to come, then come. Why make such a big fuss? You old codger, are you trying to embarrass me?"

Jiang Mo chuckled softly, and in an instant, the entire illusion of the world was forcibly erased by an invisible hand, disappearing completely as if it had never existed.

The demon rulers who witnessed this scene were secretly shocked. As expected of the strongest among humans, they were able to so easily neutralize His Majesty's divine power...

"The great upheaval is imminent, and numerous calamities will follow one after another. I wish to unify the world and gather the power of all living beings to avert this catastrophe. Today, I will temporarily borrow the Venerable Xuanzun's venue. I wonder how many of you present are willing to bow down and submit?"

The Sun-Devouring Demon Emperor said bluntly, "Now that you have submitted, regardless of your race or past grudges, I can elevate your life level and allow you to touch a higher realm. Of course, my words always stand, and I have no intention of making things difficult for you."

"I have laid out the path for you, and I will only say this once. Gentlemen, if you are willing, then follow my True Demon King's Court and welcome a glorious era!"

Hearing the Demon Emperor's offer of enticement, many extraordinary beings standing at the pinnacle began to waver. They had originally come under the intimidation of Jiang Mo's power, but their presence did not signify submission. Now, having received the Demon Emperor's promise, they were even more tempted.

It seems that this mysterious being can rival the Xuanzun!

After speaking, the Sun-Devouring Demon Emperor gave Jiang Mo a provocative look and asked knowingly, "Fellow Daoist, you shouldn't mind, right?"

They showed up uninvited, disrupted our plans, and even nitpicked. It would be a miracle if I didn't mind!

That's what most people would think, but Jiang Mo simply maintained his smile and spoke calmly:

"That's great, your arrival saves me a lot of trouble."

"Their choices don't matter. I just want to ask you, you old geezer, how many heads do you have that I can chop off?"

"Just wait and see. My head is right here. If you have the ability, come and take it!"

The Sun-Devouring Demon Emperor's smile was meaningful, and his murderous intent, as still as a lake, sent chills down one's spine.

"What kind of demon emperor are you? You're just an old geezer, what are you pretending for? Bringing your cats and dogs to cause trouble, do you want your entire clan wiped out?!"

The ruthless and violent Yao Wang was enraged by this person's arrogant demeanor and began to curse without restraint.

"Oh? So noisy! Who is it? It's the famous 'Taotie'! How did it become a human's obedient domestic dog?"

A mocking voice rang out, spoken by one of the demon race's rulers.

"Go ahead and boast all you want. Once the Venerable Xuanzun twists your heads off, I'll devour your flesh and blood, and then you'll be in for a world of trouble."

Yao Wang was exceptionally confident. Its combat power was already quite terrifying. Nearly a quarter of the life force and spiritual energy of the secret realm that it had refined had been completely devoured by it.

Due to the superiority of its bloodline, it is not a ruler now, but it is better than a ruler, and it has abnormal combat power that ordinary rulers cannot match.

It was at this moment that the Flying Immortal Master, looking at the many demon race rulers who had followed the Demon Emperor, smiled brightly and said:

"I feel sorry for you scum who have been barely surviving in the secret realm for thousands of years. Now you dare to show yourselves. So please, all of you, add more souls to my sword."

With a "clang!", a pleasant sound of a sword ringing out was heard.

A long, slender sword, its entire body gleaming with a blood-red light, suddenly appeared in the hands of the Flying Immortal Master. Its true origin was none other than a peerless weapon that was famous throughout the ancient times, and also one of the top five treasured magical artifacts of the Flying Immortal Sect—the Demon-Refining Soul-Suppressing Sword.

It is the natal sword of the Immortal Cult's founder, the Immortal Daoist Lord, and is a sword imbued with countless mythological elements.

Legend has it that the Immortal Daoist used this sword to kill several demon rulers. Even the once-powerful Nine Suns Demon Emperor was severely injured by the Demon Refining and Soul Suppressing Sword and almost lost his life on the battlefield. In the end, he fled in a sorry state.

This mythical sword possesses extraordinary destructive power against demons. When used to kill humans, it can only unleash 100% of its power, but when used to kill demons, it can unleash more than ten times its power.

From the perspective of combat, the Demon-Refining Soul-Suppressing Sword is not much weaker than the three great innate magical artifacts in its ability to specifically counter and kill demons.

As expected, upon seeing the ancient, blood-stained sword in the hands of the Flying Immortal Master, the faces of the ten demon race rulers instantly darkened. They felt a fear flowing deep within their bloodlines, and thus anger, resentment, and dormant hatred were ignited, instantly escalating to their peak. Dense and violent killing intent raged towards the Flying Immortal Master.

Even the composed Sun-Devouring Demon King's smile faded, and his pupils flickered with a complex mix of emotions, including reminiscence, anger,感慨, 念怀, and contempt.

It was very familiar with this sword. After the great ancient war, it should have been broken by its ancestor, the Nine-Sun Demon Emperor, at the cost of mutual destruction. Now, after thousands of years of repair and nurturing, it seemed to have recovered quite well.

And just as that was the case, the Sun-Devouring Demon Emperor felt even more anticipation, looking down at the Flying Immortal Master with a superior air:

"The sword is good, and the person is good too. I just wonder how much of its power you can unleash?"

"Then you need not worry about it."

The Flying Immortal Lord spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, indicating that he was ready to take action at any time in the face of this supreme ruler of the demon race.

However, he was also aware of his own limitations. With only the Demon-Refining Soul-Suppressing Sword, some fragments of the History Book, and his current peak cultivation at the Immortal Palace, he was probably not enough to contend with the Demon Emperor who possessed the complete Chaos Cauldron.

Therefore, his target is the other ten rulers present.

Today, he will surely slaughter all the demons here. Even the weapon in his hand is uncontrollably releasing its bloody light, the crimson glow heralding the arrival of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

"Oh? Interesting. I look forward to seeing you prove it to me later."

The Sun-Devouring Demon Emperor smiled coldly, then turned his attention to all living beings present, and shouted:

"Gentlemen, have you made up your minds? Are you going to live..."

"Or die!"

Chapter 533 Who Will Support the Backbone of Humanity?

More than a hundred of the strongest creatures on land were treated as marginal figures by the Demon Emperor and were treated casually. It didn't care about their choices; as far as it was concerned, it could extract maximum value from them regardless of whether they submitted or not.

At the same time, Si Li, the envoy of the Sunset Royal Court who came with the Demon Emperor, was in human form. His eyes, as steady as a deep pool, were silently observing the spirited and arrogant Taotie in the opposing camp.

It would never mistake that extremely familiar demonic energy and bloodline power; it was undoubtedly the ancient remnant that had taken root in Tianyuan many years ago, possessing the same bloodline potential as a top demon king of the Sunset Royal Court.

Currently, the opponent is only at the ninth level of the King Realm, yet it gives it a troublesome sense of threat. If it continues to grow like this, it will probably become a ruler in less than sixty years!

Si Li concealed its hostility perfectly. Even with its target, whom it desperately wanted to kill, right in front of it, it remained calm and composed, merely glancing lightly at the group of powerful figures on the local territory.

What surprised it most were the two humans opposite it. Their power made it tremble, and they seemed to be on track to rival the 'King' to whom it belonged.

The Sun-Devouring Demon Emperor's urging caused the atmosphere to tense up again, like a powder keg about to burn out and explode.

Most of the human masters showed strong rejection, condemning the Demon Emperor's words as absurd and naive.

This matter concerns the greater good of their race. They would rather die than submit to the rule of the demon race. After all, countless ancestors of their sects had lost their lives on the battlefield in fierce battles against the demon race.

However, the Demon Emperor remained unmoved, simply listening quietly. It continued to wait, waiting for all the extraordinary beings to provide a complete answer.

"You think so too?"

Knowing that it had no hope of winning over human masters, it turned its attention to the 84 alien kings overseas.

Those ancient monsters who had lived for hundreds or thousands of years all saw the current situation, which looked like it was about to start a war. Now it was time to make a choice that would cost them their lives and the fate of their race.

But nobody wants to be the one to stick their neck out, caught between the True Demon King's Court and the two major human powers led by the Flying Immortal Sect and the Three Ones Sect, struggling to survive!

If you make the wrong choice, it will be utterly disastrous, and your entire race could be wiped out of the world.

As the Demon Emperor's gaze swept over every extraordinary being as if scrutinizing his subjects, some remained silent, some avoided eye contact, and others averted their eyes, unable to bear the suffocating pressure that tormented their souls.

At the same time, Jiang Mo also received a dense barrage of mental messages, all from kings of foreign races overseas, asking him what was going on in the scene before him and where they should go.

After about ten seconds, a water bear king that had evolved to the limit of its life level finally made a choice.

Its spiritual fluctuations spread like ripples, seeping into every corner of the void, ensuring that the leaders and supporters of both sides could hear them.

"I...don't want to get involved in your war. Let me leave, okay?"

Before he could finish speaking, a terrifying killing intent swept over him instantly. It was a demon race ruler who had made his move, attempting to kill him on the spot.

However, at that very moment, the great demon's movements abruptly stopped as if electricity had been cut off.

It was locked onto by Jiang Mo's gaze, as if it were infinitely close to death, its limbs stiffened subconsciously, and its heart rate soared wildly.

Jiang Mo remained silent, merely gazing at it. The implication was clear: this was ultimately his home turf, and these invited powerhouses were, in the end, his guests.

If you take another step forward, you will bear the consequences.

Seeing the human man's demeanor and actions, the Sun-Devouring Demon King also looked at the anxious water bear king and, in a condescending tone, commanded:

"Since you want to leave, then leave. I have no patience to keep you all here. If you are like the others, then step forward and return to the mortal world."

That being said, it will still settle scores later. Currently, it is restrained by Jiang Mo and cannot take direct action. It will not be a problem to deal with these trivial matters after suppressing the first master of the human race.

"Thank you both for your understanding. I'll take my leave now."

The king of water bears, having received Jiang Mo's tacit approval and the Demon Emperor's verbal decree, felt as if he had been granted a pardon. He hastily bid farewell, and with a flash of his figure, a storm shook the starry sky as he fled the banquet that was about to turn into a battlefield of carnage.

Other foreign rulers, witnessing this scene, each had their own thoughts.

Some worried that they would be besieged by the victorious human or demon race afterward to eliminate any future troubles, so they decided to be more astute now and choose the best side to join.

Over the next ten minutes, one after another, the apex predators of the food chain chose to leave. They simply dared not participate in this battlefield; there were about thirty of them.

The remaining powerful individuals numbered less than fifty. Some openly transmitted their voices to the Demon Emperor or Jiang Mo, waiting for an opportunity to inquire and weigh the pros and cons. Others, however, dared not, appearing worried and distressed. In their view, whatever their choice was, it could be predicted and overheard, so they simply remained silent, wavering between the two options.

Ultimately, more than half of the alien races gravitated towards the demon race because they despised the greed and hypocrisy of humans more than the demon race. Moreover, the demon emperor had promised them an irresistible temptation—ultimate evolution!

The 18 alien kings who came to Jiang Mo's side included the Elf King, known for his wisdom, and Tetus, the leader of the Dark Spirit Clan.

They had witnessed too many legendary aspects of Xuanzun. It seemed that he had never been defeated since his debut, and every time he seemed to be in dire straits, he would eventually win a great victory.

Once the two sides were in their respective camps, the situation became clear: the demon race had ten rulers, over a hundred ancient demon kings, and 28 powerful alien races.

On the human side, there are 23 Masters, 2 Ancient Demon Kings, 3 Demon Kings, 1 Dao Lord, and 18 powerful alien races.

Judging from the sheer numbers, the human race seems to have a clear advantage. However, this is not the case. Because the masters of top-tier sects, such as the Divine Descent Sect and the Samsara Palace, were all crushed by Jiang Mo, there is a serious shortage of high-end combat power on this side.

Of the 23 Masters, most come from mid- to lower-tier forces. Their individual strength is comparable to that of ordinary Overlords, but their chances of winning against Overlords who control secret realms are slim.

In addition, there are as many as 28 overseas beings who have defected to the demon race, which is nearly half more than the number of alien powerhouses in the human race camp.

An epic battle is imminent, and the dragon-like creatures evolved from salamanders, the Elf King, Titus, and other alien leaders feel an unprecedented sense of oppression.

"Boom!!!"

"Boom!!!"

The powerful figures on both sides exerted their full pressure, causing a terrifying collision on the lunar surface. The fragile void shattered like a mirror, revealing countless cracks.

Most of the strongest beings born from the Tianyuan World have come to this battlefield. This is a historic moment to witness!

Since ancient times, spanning more than five thousand years, the human race and the demon race are about to fight to the death once again!

The Demon Emperor's eyes were cold, and the ancient mark between its brows and the blood patterns on its body gradually brightened, a sign that it was about to enter battle. In an instant, its strength surged dramatically, and the rulers who were close to it felt a chill run down their spines.

The other masters and powerful alien beings were even more horrified.

In the blink of an eye, the Demon Emperor became at least several times stronger, having entered a supreme and mysterious realm that no one could fathom.

Behind it hangs the sun and moon high, and all spirits submit to its power—this is a true pinnacle of the demon race!

"!!!"

The delegation of envoys who had infiltrated from outside the Heavenly Abyss were suddenly shaken, especially Si Li, who could no longer control the restlessness of the blood in her body. She felt a strong palpitation and almost knelt down on the spot. In front of the Devouring Sun Demon Emperor, she could not even muster a little strength!

This suppression is more powerful than its 'king', and even rivals its 'emperor'.
