The demon race was not numerous, numbering only in the tens of millions.
Yet, when so many gathered, the visual impact was still immense!
Feeling the overwhelming demonic energy surging towards him, Wei Wuji felt a deep sense of powerlessness…
It had finally…
Come…
"The current cultivation world…" the Eastern Demon King looked down from above and sneered, "is truly full of 'talented individuals'."
The mockery was evident.
However, Wei Wuxian was too weak to retort.
Let alone making a move.
But simply looking up at them made his body tremble uncontrollably…
The Eastern Demon King's voice was not loud, yet it clearly resounded through every corner of the Dengxian Sect.
Everyone felt a surge of blood and a moment of dizziness.
The integrated realm cultivators who had been injured in previous battles with the demon generals actually vomited blood on the spot!
A single sentence, possessing such terrifying power!
At this moment.
Everyone finally realized what kind of beings they were facing…
Four words involuntarily surfaced in their minds.
Unbeatable!!!
Wei Wuji, suppressing his fear, flew into the air.
"Your Excellency…" he stared intently at the Eastern Demon King, "Dare you fight me?!"
Since death was inevitable anyway, he might as well die with some dignity.
To die at the hands of such a terrifying existence as a Demon King could be considered a perfect ending.
"You?" The Eastern Demon King cast a contemptuous glance and said indifferently, "Unworthy."
The greatest humiliation is to be ignored!
These simple three words struck Wei Wuji's heart with the force of tons of blows!
He clenched his fists tightly, then helplessly loosened them.
Forget it…
Perhaps this is how it ends…
A Demon Marshal gave an order to a Demon General beside him, "Go play with him."
The Demon General immediately flew to the front of the formation, his demonic weapon pointing directly at Wei Wuji.
"Come, die quickly!"
No extra words were needed.
Wei Wuji unleashed all the true energy in his body and attacked the Demon General!
The terrifying energy from his technique even caused the surrounding space to distort for a moment!
Seeing such a terrifying attack for the first time, the cultivators hiding within the Dengxian Sect were utterly shocked!
This…
Is this the power of a Mahayana stage expert?!
Terrifying indeed—!
But soon, their shock turned into dumbfoundedness.
The Demon General's figure flickered and disappeared from his original position!
When he reappeared, his demonic weapon was already at Wei Wuji's throat!
Too fast!
The crowd couldn't even see what was happening.
It took them a moment to even comprehend what had occurred!
And Wei Wuji himself hadn't seen the Demon General's movements at all!
This was a Demon General in his prime, his strength far beyond that of the weakened Wushuang Zhan Mo from before!
"You are indeed strong," the Demon General said as the demonic blade he held cut downwards, "But not strong enough!"
"Pfft—!"
Wei Wuji's entire right arm, along with half his shoulder, was instantly severed from his body!
"The so-called number one sect in the Eastern Barrens is truly disappointing."
As he spoke, the Demon General's weapon pierced through Wei Wuji's abdomen.
"Pfft—!"
Blood gushed out again!
However, he was careful not to strike a fatal blow.
Because he wanted to torment Wei Wuji slowly, not let him die so easily!
The resentment of the demon race towards the human race was no less than that of the human race towards the demon race!
The demonic blade pierced Wei Wuji's body again and again.
Wei Wuji's aura grew weaker and weaker…
A hint of perverted satisfaction appeared on the Demon General's face.
"That's enough," the Eastern Demon King said indifferently, "Make your move."
He had already assessed the situation.
The strongest here was nothing more than this trash, Wei Wuji.
They should seize the time to destroy the cultivators here, and then march on the other three great barren lands.
Suddenly!
A flicker of surprise flashed in the Demon King's eyes.
"Bang—"
A streak of azure technique suddenly appeared, striking the Demon General who was tormenting Wei Wuji!
That Demon General actually exploded on the spot!
Not only that Demon General.
The technique's attack range was vast, even reaching the demon army!
The Eastern Demon King raised a finger and easily neutralized this terrifying attack.
The next moment.
Twenty to thirty elders appeared in the sky above the Dengxian Sect.
Each of them stared grimly at the demon army.
The aura they exuded was even more terrifying than Wei Wuji's had been before!
Their identities were obvious!
Tribulation Transcending stage cultivators!
Compared to the tens of millions of demons, twenty to thirty people were pitifully few.
But the appearance of these Tribulation Transcending stage experts made the cultivators in the sect's main hall's eyes light up!
Tribulation Transcending stage!
Invincible existences below Immortals!
Although the demon army was vast, most of them were low to mid-level.
The Tribulation Transcending stage experts could surely destroy them with a wave of their hands!
A spark of hope reignited in their hearts!
It could only be said…
Often, ignorance is bliss…
These Tribulation Transcending stage experts were far from as relaxed as the cultivators.
Although all were at the Tribulation Transcending stage, there were still distinctions.
For instance, most of them were below the fifth layer of Tribulation Transcending.
Only three of them were at the eighth or ninth layer.
And only one was just half a step away from Grand Perfection!
But regardless of their cultivation realm, they all felt a sense of powerlessness when facing the Demon King!
Strong!
Too strong!
Looking at the Demon King now was like looking at a towering, insurmountable peak!
Whether they could win…
Was still unknown!
The fact that such a feeling arose in their hearts meant there was a huge gap in strength between them!
It also meant that they would only have one chance to attack!
At their level of cultivation, prolonged struggles were almost impossible.
Unless it was an equal match, it was always a battle decided in a single move!
There were no unnecessary opening remarks.
These dozens of Tribulation Transcending stage experts attacked the Demon King in unison!
As the saying goes, to catch a thief, first catch the king!
As long as these Four Great Demon Kings could be dealt with, the other demons would be insignificant!
No!
They didn't even dare to hope to defeat them.
As long as they could restrain them, they would have enough manpower to eliminate the other demons first!
This strike combined the pinnacle of their lifelong strength!
Tribulation Transcending stage experts were already at the apex.
Now, with twenty to thirty Tribulation Transcending stage cultivators attacking together, the power could no longer be described as merely terrifying!
The terrifying energy fluctuations made the space seem to tear apart!
Even the ground below began to shake from the impact!
"Rumble—!"
The demons with lower cultivation levels even bled from all seven orifices and died on the spot!
Those with slightly better cultivation suffered varying degrees of internal injuries!
The mere shockwaves from these powerful beings' combined assault caused tens of millions of demons to lose their combat effectiveness!
If this attack were to land, its power was unimaginable!
However, the Eastern, Southern, Western, and Northern Demon Kings showed no panic in their eyes.
They didn't even look directly at the attack!
It was as if this terrifying assault was not directed at them at all.
"Boom—————!"
The technique attack descended, and the light almost completely engulfed the demon army!
The might of Tribulation Transcending stage cultivators, terrifying indeed!
However…
As the light dissipated.
The Four Great Demon Kings were still standing there unharmed.
Even the other demons had suffered no casualties!
The combined strike of the Tribulation Transcending stage experts had yielded no effect whatsoever!!!
"Since everyone is here, let's deal with them all at once," the Eastern Demon King commanded.
Dozens of Demon Marshals charged towards the human experts!
The battle.
Was about to begin!
While a single Demon Marshal might not be a match for a Tribulation Transcending stage expert, when three Demon Marshals faced one Tribulation Transcending stage expert, the two sides immediately became evenly matched!
And the number of Demon Marshals deployed was clearly more than a 3-to-1 ratio!
A group of experts immediately felt pressure.
Even strained!
Especially those experts below the fifth layer of Tribulation Transcending, who were injured on the spot!
Once injuries occurred, the delicate balance was broken!
Less than a minute into the battle, a cultivator at the third layer of Tribulation Transcending actually perished!
His broken body fell powerlessly towards the ground!
"Bang—!"
This sound was like a giant hammer striking the hearts of the other cultivators.
The Demon Marshals who were freed up immediately joined the encirclement and annihilation of the other experts!
As the battle progressed, cultivators below the fifth layer of Tribulation Transcending successively fell…
In just three to five minutes, fewer than five Tribulation Transcending stage cultivators remained!
Looking at the Demon Marshals who outnumbered them several times over, the remaining few felt a surge of despair…
Even the Tribulation Transcending stage expert who was half a step from Grand Perfection was no exception!
They had only heard that the demon race was powerful before, but they never expected them to be so monstrous!
At this moment, their last vestiges of fighting spirit vanished…
Perhaps if they fought desperately, they could still kill a few more Demon Marshals.
But what was the point?
Even if they killed all the Demon Marshals, what about the remaining Demon Kings?
Death was inevitable today, the only difference was the timing…
And more despairing than them were the cultivators below.
Tribulation Transcending stage cultivators.
The beings who were all-powerful in their eyes…
Representing the highest level of cultivators…
Had perished right before their eyes…
So now, who could come to save them…
A terrifying sense of despair quickly pervaded everyone's hearts.
This despair was the most thorough of all…
Because they had no hope left to speak of…
Although some had accepted their fate, these Tribulation Transcending stage cultivators were still making their last struggles.
It was like a physical reflex.
But this level of struggle was far from enough.
Soon, only the expert at the half-step peak stage remained.
Although he was not dead yet, he was close to the end of his strength.
Perhaps another blow from a Demon Marshal would finish him.
Cultivators spent their lives fighting against heaven, trying to defy fate.
But in the end, they could not escape this destiny.
The last spark of fighting spirit in the elder's heart also vanished.
As if accepting his fate, he slowly closed his eyes.
The Demon Marshals' weapons pierced towards the elder.
With his death, not only his own life would end.
It would also mark the final curtain for the entire human race of cultivators…
And the human race, a race that had existed for countless years, would be completely annihilated in the river of history with his death…
