Chapter 229: Fire Beats Bug Types
BOOM! Above the vast sky, nine gigantic thunderous arms stretching almost a thousand meters long appeared! Like hands covering the sky, they slammed onto the ground of the Ancestral Temple. Thousands of blood-colored electric currents, like tidal waves, ravaged the land, lakes, and rivers of the Ancestral Temple, obliterating groups of demons wherever they went!
Such was the destructive power of a top combatant on the battlefield!
The Empress is invincible! The brains of the Nine Heavens Immortal Army were on fire. And those disorganized demons, seeing such a terrifying figure in the dragon robe, were filled with fear. Even the fiercest demons held a deep awe for truly terrifying human warriors!
"Where are our Demon Emperors?"
"Three Demon Emperors, plus the Violet Emperor, quickly go and kill Divine Dawn!"
The ordinary demons didnt know of the existence of the devils; in their eyes, it was a four against one situation. Even though the 20 million-strong human army had a huge advantage on the ground, the demons were confident in their top combatants!
"Kill Divine Dawn, destroy the Heavenly Realm, occupy the Divine Continent!" Millions of demons roared furiously, their red eyes blazing with battle spirit. They eagerly looked towards the deepest part of the Ancestral Temple! Why hadn't the Demon Emperors made a move yet?
"We go first!" Burning Saint, Ape Saint, and the other 108 Demon Saints, seeing the Ancestral Temple losing ground, couldnt sit still.
"Stick together in groups, dont get separated and broken," the Gu Emperor said grimly, staring intently at the distant figure in the thunder.
"Understood!" the Ape Saint and others nodded.
The power of the 108 Demon Saints surpassed that of the warriors from the five Immortal Empires. They had to break out and turn the tide for the millions of demon troops!
If the battlefield was divided into Emperors, Saints, and soldier tiers, the Ancestral Temple's demon soldiers were weak, but their Saints were strong!
As for the Emperors, the human race, along with the devils, could counterbalance.
"The decision is made!" the Gu Emperor declared. As he, Red Lotus, the Violet Emperor, and Moon Fairy gathered together, their eyes fixed on the distant figure in the dragon robe.
"Three devils haven't shown up yet!" Red Lotus frowned deeply.
"We can't let Divine Dawn be so arrogant anymore. It's affecting our morale! I'll go and kill her!" Moon Fairy's gentle face suddenly transformed into a fierce fox-like visage.
"You sure you can?" The Violet Emperor raised an eyebrow, not daring to confront Divine Dawn himself. After all, Divine Dawn had slain Eternal Joy, and Moon Fairy had killed the Heavenly Hound. By rights, Moon Fairy was qualified to confront her!
"Just keep an eye on the three devils!" Moon Fairy said coldly, transforming into a Three-Tailed Demon Fox.
Like a white flash, it dashed through the ruins of the Ancestral Temple. Its agile and swift movement stirred up a storm of demonic energy, crashing towards the figure in the dragon robe above!
"Moon Fairy!" Its entry into the battle ignited the demons war spirit, and countless demons who had just witnessed him slaying the Heavenly Hound roared in fervor.
BOOM! The Three-Tailed Demon Fox leapt into the sky, shattering the thunderous vortex and pouncing on the figure in the dragon robe. The two, one human and one fox, clashed amidst the thunder, indistinguishable in the chaos!
BOOM BOOM BOOM! Their battle raged, crashing onto the ground outside the Ancestral Temple. Blood-red lightning, colorful flames, storms, and frost wreaked havoc around them. No one dared approach this deadly fray!
"Cover for him." The Gu Emperor, Red Lotus, and Violet Emperor exchanged glances. To prevent the devil from suddenly ambushing Moon Fairy, they prepared to join in. If the devils didn't appear, they would all attack the Divine Dawn Empress together.
"Divine Dawn is the key enemy. If we kill her, the human army's morale will collapse!" the Violet Emperor sneered.
Gu Emperor and Red Lotus, though silent, had eyes stained red with murderous intent.
However, just as the three were about to join the battle, a blood dragon rose from the pools of blood and corpses, transforming into a tall, mysterious woman before them. Her hair black as night, eyes red as blood, she exuded an overwhelming devilish aura! The moment she appeared, a devilish black miasma swept across the battlefield, more violent than demonic energy.
"War Princess!" The Gu Emperor, Red Lotus, and Violet Emperor all went cold, their brows furrowing.
"Good morning, everyone," the War Princess greeted as she landed on the ground. With one hand on her hip, she stood tall and self-assured, her demeanor strikingly at ease against the brutal backdrop of the battlefield.
The Gu Emperor and Red Lotus exchanged a glance. They looked over to where Moon Fairy seemed to be holding his own for the moment, and felt a bit more settled.
The Gu Emperor then seriously said, "War Princess, might there be some misunderstanding between us? Our demon race has always respected you immensely, never intending to be your adversary."
"There's no misunderstanding. From the beginning, I just wanted to annihilate you all." The War Princess chuckled sweetly, her eyes twinkling mischievously.
"Why? Even if you wanted three entire Immortal Empires, we could have negotiated," the Gu Emperor said, his brow creasing.
"I want all of the Divine Continent, and there's no room for negotiation," her voice turned icy.
The Gu Emperor and Red Lotus' faces darkened upon hearing this.
The War Princess looked at them with disdain, scoffing. "I plan to establish a human blood bank in this Divine Continent. What use do I have for a bunch of beasts like you? Competing with my race for human blood?"
"But we've always considered you as friends..." Red Lotus's eyes were bloodshot.
"Friends? You really dare to flatter yourselves, huh? Beasts will be beasts!" the War Princess sneered. After being insulted again, even the most patient of saints would reach their limit.
The Gu Emperor and Red Lotus knew well that they had unwittingly let the wolf into their home. There was no other way but to fight to the death!
The Gu Emperor's face darkened, his voice turning sinister. "War Princess, your appetite seems a bit too large. You know, even though the Demon Continent opened the gates to the Endless Netherworld, not many of your strong warriors can make it here."
"Oh? You think you, a mere insect, can slay devils? You know my prestigious status and plan to capture me, threatening the entire Endless Netherworld, bargaining for your despicable demon race's survival?" the War Princess sneered coldly.
"You guessed right!" Gu Emperor declared, casting a glance at Violet Emperor.
"This is the only path left to us," the Violet Emperor said, his face twisted with a sinister chill.
The other two devils were absent!
"She's too confident. Let's make this quick!" After the Gu Emperor muttered these words, the three Awakened Emperor Realm powerhouses didn't hesitate to strike! When they moved, it was a cataclysmic assault capable of obliterating heavens and earth!
HUM! A sea of green poison mist surged from the Gu Emperor. A true battlefield poison demon, his very presence was akin to a thousand armies. The green mist instantly enveloped the battlefield!
In the midst of the poison, the Gu Emperor transformed into a green flesh worm, known as the Green Devil Gu. Its body was riddled with countless pores, oozing streams of green viscous liquid.
From this green liquid emerged myriad bizarrely shaped gu insects, resembling wasps, some with wings, others with gigantic teeth! In an instant, there were millions of these grotesque insects, their menacing faces forming an endless sea of bugs, swarming towards the War Princess.
Such a tactic, if unleashed not on a powerful warrior but on the Nine Heavens Immortal Army, would wreak catastrophic devastation! The Gu Emperor was not just a formidable foe but a strategic nightmare for the human race, a grave threat indeed!
As the Gu Emperor continued to birth more gu insects, the War Princess became engulfed in a sea of bugs! On the other side, the Red Lotus Demon Emperor transformed into a seductive blood lotus. As she rooted herself into the ground, countless bloody vines stretched outwards, dyeing hundreds of meters around the War Princess in crimson.
Similarly, tens of thousands of blood lotuses sprouted from the earth, like scarlet tentacles reaching for the War Princess. The tactics of these two Demon Emperors were distinctly different from the bird and beast demons. They were more sinister, killing invisibly and wreaking havoc on the battlefield!
Meanwhile, the Violet Emperor was casting his own daoist spell. He conjured a violet storm phoenix with his hands, a majestic creature that soared through the heavens, stirring up a tempest, swirling towards the War Princess.
"A bug, a plant, a blood slave, daring to clash with a devil?" the War Princess scoffed, bathed in a mist of blood. Her body surged with Mortal Dust Devil Blood, forming blood dragons that coiled around her. With a flick of her wrist, a blood-red, spiked whip materialized in her hand, its tip sharp as a spear.
Facing the sea of insects, the sky of blood lotuses, and the violet storm phoenix, the War Princess laughed coldly. Her Mortal Dust Devil Blood stirred, her figure draped in a captivating yet deadly crimson.
CRACK! With her right hand wielding the whip and her left flinging out, she unleashed a Blood Sacrifice Dragon Breath.
This blood art, powered by Mortal Dust Devil Blood, possessed a terrifyingly bloody power. A sea of demonic thoughts converged on the blood dragon, hurtling towards Gu Emperor's true form.
A being like the Gu Emperor, a strategic divine weapon, with millions of lethal insects, had an obvious weakness in its true form... a fact known to all. Yet, for most, this knowledge was useless. The Gu Emperor, of course, knew how to protect himself.
Facing the Dragon Breath, the Gu Emperor's gaze sharpened. Tens of thousands of green insects formed a larger green dragon, biting into the Dragon Breath!
BOOM! The shrill cry of insects dying rang out. The larger green dragon, despite its size, was incinerated and crumbled under the power of the Mortal Dust Devil Blood. Even the blood of the insects was burned away completely!
"Is she really this strong?" the Gu Emperor's face showed a flicker of surprise. He remembered being told that the War Princess of the Endless Netherworld was only in the Early Awakened Emperor Realm. How could she unleash such formidable power? Not only was it comparable to the Late Awakened Emperor Realm, but she also possessed the Mortal Dust Devil Blood, a lethal force against insects and plants!
"Red Lotus, Violet Emperor, help me!" the Gu Emperor called, not losing his composure. He summoned more swarms of insects, part to attack the War Princess and part to continue protecting himself.
The bright red blood lotus was equally horrified by the War Princess's terrifying power and opted for an offensive defense! Around the War Princess's feet, countless bloody vines and lotuses, emitting a fog of blood, lunged at her!
Red Lotus' power, the bane of flesh and blood, was fundamentally vampiric, much like the War Princess herself. Usually, these sharp, blood-poisoned vines and lotuses, upon penetrating a living body, could rapidly drain people and beasts dry.
"Playing with blood in front of the Mortal Dust Devil?" The War Princess chuckled coldly, fully embracing her new identity. She found that life was quite enjoyable, as long as she wasn't around Yun Xiao!
CRACK! With a flick of her whip, the blood fangs swept through, striking the blood lotuses in the air around her. Where the Mortal Dust Devil Blood touched, the blood lotuses burned as if meeting their ancestor. With one whip, they were all annihilated!
This was the suppression of bloodlines!
Compared to the Gu Emperor, Red Lotus feared the power of the Mortal Dust Devil Blood even more.
And so, Red Lotus' offensive defense was effortlessly dissolved by a single whip of the War Princess, while the Dragon Breath continued to fly towards the true form of the Gu Emperor!
The Gu Emperor could only frown and retreat, burrowing into the ground while summoning more swarms of insects to counter the Dragon Breath.
"Violet Emperor! It's your turn to block!" the Gu Emperor shouted to the figure in violet robes beside him, already contemplating retreat. According to his initial cautious plan, it was still feasible for them and the 108 Demon Saints to retreat now!
"Alright!" The Violet Emperor stood right behind the Gu Emperor's true form. He glared at the War Princess, but then, with a cunning smile, he saw his opportunity amidst the chaos engulfing the Ancestral Temple. Especially in the battlefield of the Emperors, filled with gu insects, blood lotuses, and a fog of blood, impenetrable to outsiders.
The Violet Emperor's expression suddenly turned sinister. "Die!" he exclaimed, controlling the violet storm phoenix that was dangerously close, and unleashed it onto the Gu Emperor's true form!
The chaotic storm force, with its thousands of wind blades sharp as swords, shredded the Gu Emperor's fleshly body, instantly whipping up a storm of green blood and flesh.
The Gu Emperor, busy countering the War Princess's blood arts, had never expected the storm phoenix to turn against him! "Violet Emperor, you!!!" In that moment, his soul shook violently, staring in disbelief at the sneering Violet Emperor, his mind a sea of blood-red chaos!
