After the powerful beings from the Central Heavenly Court arrived.
The last to arrive, lingering behind.
Were countless colossal dragons, filling the heavens and earth with golden, silver, azure, and black dragons. Each of their eyeballs was larger than stars beyond the heavens.
Every dragon exuded an ancient and majestic aura, at the level of a Celestial Venerable or higher.
"The worms from the Heavenly Dragon Realm are here too! Hmph!"
The powerhouses from the Heavenly Demon Realm, who had always been at odds with the Heavenly Dragon Realm, snorted coldly.
"If you're not happy, let's fight! Stop your mumbling and foul talk, you cowards!"
A black dragon with a fiery temper glared at the Demon Venerables from the Heavenly Demon Realm.
"Are we afraid of you!"
A terrifying figure radiating the aura of an eight-path Demon Venerable retorted fearlessly.
As the two peerless powerhouses were about to clash, a figure wearing a flat-top demon crown from the Heavenly Demon Realm stopped the Demon Venerable.
From the Heavenly Dragon Realm, a Dragon Venerable whose aura was as fierce as a furnace, clearly at the peak of his prime, also spoke.
A great battle was averted before it could erupt.
From the Heavenly Buddha Realm, a Buddha with white hair and beard, appearing ancient and frail, raised a hand in a prayer gesture and addressed the gathered powerhouses: "Amitabha, since everyone has gathered here today, I believe none of you are here to show off or engage in combat. Instead, you are all here for the treasures and opportunities within the Gods' Twilight Battlefield. Therefore, it would be best not to waste your energy here. Finding the entrance to the Gods' Battlefield is the priority."
With the Heavenly Buddha Realm's expert's words, all the major forces began to accelerate their search with renewed urgency.
However, strangely, despite searching repeatedly through the spatial turbulence, they could not find any trace of an entrance.
Even the powerhouses from the Heavenly Demon Realm felt extremely frustrated, their previous senses suddenly interrupted and lost.
"What is the meaning of this!"
A Demon Venerable frowned deeply.
"Could it be that the Gods' Battlefield has not yet manifested in this era? But the previous senses were not false. How peculiar!"
"Could someone have gotten there first!"
A Demon Venerable exclaimed, sensing great danger.
Just as everyone was anxiously searching.
Suddenly.
From a void, a croaking sound, like that of a frog, emerged.
Following that.
A sneaky toad's head poked out from the void.
The peerless Celestial Venerables present, with their formidable divine senses, immediately detected it.
"It's that damned creature!"
Upon seeing the toad, the Demon Venerables and powerhouses from the Heavenly Demon Realm were instantly enraged. Enemies meeting, their eyes burned with hatred.
"Hmph, you scoundrel, you caused chaos in the Heavenly Demon Realm before. When we Demon Venerables made our move, you, this cunning and deceitful dog, managed to escape. Today is your day to die, for running into us! And where is that Borong steed? Have it come out and face its death as well."
A massive demonic claw materialized and, without any resistance from the toad, yanked it completely out of the void.
"Ah, spare me! Demon Venerable, please spare me, let me explain."
"Explain what? You dead toad, what tricks are you trying to play? We'll kill you first." The attacking Demon Venerable gritted his teeth.
This Demon Venerable had several exceptionally talented offspring and descendants who had been devoured by the toad and the demonic horse. He wished he could disembowel the toad.
"You can't kill me! If you kill me, you'll never find the Gods' Battlefield!"
The toad spoke rapidly, its words tumbling out.
Like beans from a bamboo tube.
It was afraid that if it spoke too slowly, it would be torn apart by the enraged Demon Venerable.
"The Gods' Battlefield!"
Upon hearing this, the powerhouses from the other Heavenly Realms converged.
The toad, seeing so many great Celestial Venerables for the first time, and all of them being ancient fossils and titan-level existences of seven paths or higher, was so scared that its tongue tied.
"Huh, this toad... it seems to have appeared in the Heavenly Dragon Realm. Hiss, this toad and that Borong steed are the demon pets of Emperor Qingyun!" A Dragon Venerable from the Heavenly Dragon Realm suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
As soon as this was said.
All the powerhouses' gazes towards the toad changed.
"Demon pet, your ancestor! I, Mo Ye, am not some demon pet. Just you wait, next time I'll capture a Dragon Venerable as my pet." The toad muttered to itself.
The Dragon Venerable glared fiercely at the toad, as if seeing through the toad's current thoughts.
Although its neck was negligibly short, the toad still flinched, quickly dispelling its mischievous thoughts.
"Yes, yes! I am the demon pet of that scoundrel, Emperor Qingyun! I know where the entrance to the Gods' Battlefield is. That scoundrel Emperor Qingyun has already entered the Gods' Battlefield. If you don't hurry and chase after him, you might not even get a drop of the soup."
"What? Emperor Qingyun has already gotten there first."
The powerhouses from the various Heavenly Realms were immediately startled.
"Yes, yes! The news is absolutely true. I just slipped away from his side. Hurry up and go kill him. You all know how terrifying he is. If you give him even the slightest opportunity, not only will you fail to kill him, but you will all be annihilated by him." the toad said.
"Hmph, you are Emperor Qingyun's demon pet, do you think we would believe your words? What if this is a trap?" A Demon Venerable from the Heavenly Demon Realm narrowed his eyes at the toad.
"I swear to the heavens, every word I speak is true!"
The toad declared solemnly.
"Why are you betraying him?"
From the Central Heavenly Realm.
Tai Xu Celestial Venerable, with his wise and calculating eyes, looked at the toad, making the toad's heart pound. It felt as if no conspiracy or secret could be hidden from Tai Xu Celestial Venerable's gaze.
The toad gulped, then began to weep and lament: "That bastard Emperor Qingyun, he only gives all the benefits to his women. I can't even get a sip of soup. I followed him from the lower realm, yet! Wuwu, I was blind to choose to follow him, I was truly blind! I regret it every single day! What angers me the most is that he helped that damned stupid horse advance to Celestial Venerable, but not me. How am I inferior to that stupid horse?! He is heartless towards me, so don't blame me for being unrighteous. Since I have no hope of advancing to Celestial Venerable under him, I cannot hang myself on this tree! Therefore, I will betray him fiercely, let him taste the suffering I have endured, and of course, I also ask you lords to consider my small contribution and help me, this humble one, advance to Celestial Venerable. You must know that no one from our Gluttonous Golden Toad clan has ever advanced to Celestial Venerable! I must become the first and only Golden Toad in history, the greatest in the world!"
The toad grinned widely, revealing a disgusting, fawning smile.
