The reality unfolded exactly as they had anticipated.
Even Demon Emperors and stronger demons from the Demon Race
were unable to breach the golden barrier personally erected by Long Yuan.
"Is this the extraterrestrial Demon Race that the Chu family warned us to prepare against?"
several Martial Emperors witnessed this scene.
Though the Chu family had previously informed them,
seeing it firsthand still shook them to their core!
Within moments, The source of thɪs content is novel※fire.net
each representing a powerful demon,
with no signs of stopping!
A demon broke through the barrier and descended.
"A demon below Emperor-tier has appeared!"
"I thought they were all terrifying existences above Emperor-tier?"
Lu Chen from the Tai Xuan Sect observed the descending demon.
Currently, numerous Martial Emperors operated within the Chu family's territory.
To address this crisis,
Martial Emperors from major factions patrolled various regions with their sect's elites,
executing any demons on sight!
"Let me see what these demons actually look like!"
Curious, Lu Chen flew toward the demon that had landed in his patrol zone.
he saw a pitch-black figure wreathed in dark energy
and sneered: "Just a filthy black devil. How disgusting!"
The words reached the Demon Saint's ears.
"Audacious human! How dare you call a noble Three-Eyed Demon a black devil?"
"You're courting death!"
The demon rose from the crater -
his bull horns remained though his wings were gone,
but a vertical eye now glowed ominously on his forehead!
Enraged, the Three-Eyed Demon's dark energy coalesced into a massive trident.
Grabbing it, he swung with devastating force at Lu Chen's head.
"A mere Saint-grade dares attack me? What gives you courage?"
Lu Chen unleashed his Martial Emperor power,
his palm radiating divine light
that descended like heavenly judgment.
A colossal explosion erupted
forcing both back several paces.
"What? A Martial Emperor? Are you from Hell's Gate?"
their intelligence stated only Hell's Gate possessed Martial Emperors in this realm.
Meanwhile, Lu Chen was shocked
by this Demon Saint's extraordinary combat prowess!
Three-Eyed Demons were royalty within the Demon World,
their battle capabilities naturally exceptional!
"Hmph! Hell's Gate is nothing! We'll annihilate them eventually!"
Lu Chen coldly snorted,
having participated in the Chu family's previous war against Hell's Gate.
The once-revered Hell's Gate Martial Emperors no longer seemed invincible!
"We had a pact with Hell's Gate not to attack them. Since you're not one of theirs... die!"
The demon's eyes narrowed
as he charged again with his trident.
"Then let's test that!"
Unfazed, Lu Chen fully unleashed his Martial Emperor power,
manifesting his imperial artifact
before engaging fiercely.
Their weapons clashed with world-shaking force.
Sword light and demonic energy ravaged the battlefield,
shattering the surrounding void instantly.
they'd exchanged numerous blows -
each strike increasing Lu Chen's alarm
at his opponent's terrifying prowess.
Were all demons this formidable?
Moreover, the demon's energy served as both weapon and armor,
with terrifying corrosive properties against flesh and soul!
the demon's third eye flashed black light
that pierced Lu Chen's shoulder before he could react,
sending blood spraying!
the demon inhaled the blood mist greedily,
licking his lips: "Human blood... truly delicious!"
"Ancient tales didn't lie!"
Having never encountered humans in the Demon World,
he'd only heard elders praise human blood's exquisite taste.
Now he'd sampled it -
and from a Martial Emperor no less!
The finest delicacy in this godless realm!
"What a vile, perverted race!"
Only savage beasts or demonic cultivators
drank blood in the Mortal Realm!
"You understand nothing! Drinking blood is as natural to us as water is to you!"
unable to resist the intoxicating blood's allure!
more demons kept breaching the barrier.
Martial Emperors across the realm engaged them,
while Demon Emperors rebounded harmlessly off Long Yuan's barrier.
"Who erected this barrier?"
"How dare anyone obstruct the Demon Race's advance?"
Demon Gods seethed with dark energy,
glaring coldly at the barrier.
"Watch me shatter it!"
A Great Demon God strode forward -
a curved horn on his forehead,
a black spiked club dripping blood in hand.
surrounding Demon Emperors cheered:
"An Immortal-tier Great Demon God!"
"With such power, the barrier will surely break!"
how could a barrier withstand Demon Emperors?
Hell's Gate claimed Martial Emperors were this realm's peak!
How could Martial Emperor-level barriers stop them?
And why would Hell's Gate's Martial Emperors obstruct them?
The Great Demon God roared,
his divine weapon radiating world-obliterating darkness
as it smashed against the barrier.
What happened next stunned every demon present.
Golden light erupted from the barrier,
rebounding the spiked club perfectly
to crush the attacker's skull with a sickening SPLAT!
The Great Demon God's head vaporized instantly,
without even a scream.
Their leader's own weapon had killed him?
"What supreme power created this barrier?"
"Could its maker surpass Immortal-tier?"
"Impossible! Hell's Gate said this world barely has Martial Emperors!"
this display far exceeded their comprehension!
Dark energy coalesced
as the decapitated Great Demon God regenerated,
but he dared not attack again,
"This place harbors unimaginable horror! Only our Demon Lords can handle this!"
