Hell, Eighth Layer.
Black King City, like a behemoth, sprawls across the wasteland.
Storm energy walls composed of death qi stand on all sides. The sounds of fighting, explosions, and arcane bombardments never cease.
Demon armies surge from all directions, besieging the city. The main forces consist of Flame Demons and Wind Demons. The earth cracks, hellfire soars, and black winds blow, causing the fire to spread. This combination of demons is a tried-and-true siege formation in the Abyss.
The Demon Fox Matriarch and the Devil Elephant Master stand atop the death qi wall. The war consumes the demons' forces like a meat grinder.
They are worried and feel lost about the future. Since the start of the all-out war, more than a handful of top tribes have been annihilated.
Before long, a figure cuts into the battlefield. It is none other than... Purgatory Demon Sword Sode Ross! "Black King Eighteen Slashes!"
Eighteen sword energies of black wind and fierce fire sweep across the sky and earth. The wind fuels the fire, making it even more intense, and countless Flame Demons and Wind Demons die tragically.
"Wizard?"
An Eighth Level Demon commander frowns.
To seize this bridgehead in Hell, the Abyss has transferred no less forces to Hell than to Nora since the all-out war began.
Logically speaking, with Hell's current foundation, it should have been flattened long ago. However, support from the Netherworld and Nora has repeatedly hindered the Abyss.
In past eras, cooperation between Wizards and demons was completely impossible. Now, it has become commonplace.
Before the Netherworld entered the fray, the Abyss had already conquered nine large civilizations with Tenth Level powerhouses and hundreds of small and medium-sized civilizations in the Multiverse.
With the Netherworld's involvement, relying on the convenience brought by the Nether Mother River, the Netherworld army appears on the Bloody Battle battlefields of the Multiverse at any time, destroying Abyssal Wells one after another, causing unimaginable losses to the Abyss.
Taking advantage of the opportune moment of the Plane Convergence, Nora has risen rapidly, further exacerbating the already difficult situation.
"This person seems to be a supernova from Nora."
Some demons recognize the Purgatory Demon Sword. Immediately, several Eighth Level Demons surround him. The Purgatory Demon Sword wields dual swords, obviously practicing the dual-wielding style. As he dances with his swords, the Black Dragon Wizard Aspect behind him soars like a dragon dance.
"Purgatory Flying Dragon Slash!"
Roar! With a single sword strike, thousands of black dragon-like sword energies attack.
He hasn't been promoted to Eighth Ring for long, yet he single-handedly fights three demons.
Such strength is undeniably powerful!
The Demon Fox Matriarch and the Devil Elephant Master also take the opportunity to attack. Both of them are in the mid-stage of Eighth Level, followed by a bunch of fox cubs and elephant cubs.
Among the Demon Fox Three Sisters, the eldest sister is already in the late stage of Seventh Level, while the second and third sisters are in the mid-stage of Seventh Level. In peaceful times, such combat power would allow them to rest easy in Hell. But during the Bloody Battle, they are walking on thin ice and can only barely protect themselves.
This scene is just a small microcosm of the myriad beings during the Bloody Battle. Too many creatures are shattered by the war and reduced to nothing.
The demons' forces outnumber those of Black King City several times over, and even with the support of the Purgatory Demon Sword, they are ultimately at a disadvantage.
Large numbers of demons and undead die. They fight and retreat, arriving behind the death qi wall, gaining a brief respite.
The Purgatory Demon Sword says, "Hold on a little longer, Big Brother should be here soon."
The Demon Fox Matriarch pants and says, "I've also notified the Demon Fox Master."
Rumble! The death qi walls collapse one after another!
An Eighth Level late-stage Flame Demon wielding a Fierce Fire battle axe roars and charges in. It is clad in Magic Tool heavy armor, and most demons' attacks are like tickles to it. Demons pour in through the gaps in the city walls, and an atmosphere of despair and helplessness permeates the city.
"Kill!"
A group of demons charge out, continuing to buy time.
Boom! A vortex forms in the Sky, and a pitch-black giant pillar emerges, descending with a shocking impact. At the top of the pillar, a figure clad in pitch-black leather armor, wielding a long sword, descends. Behind it, nine Black Flame Fox Tails that connect to the Sky Dome dance, exuding the powerful aura of a mid-stage Ninth Level! Thirty-sixth Pillar of Hell Demon Fox Master Sode Li Na!
The queen of all Demon Fox Tribe demons! Compared to regular Demon Foxes, she doesn't have a charming aura, but rather a heroic spirit.
With just a wave of her sword, a stream of Black Flame drifts out, and any demon, regardless of its level, dies tragically wherever it passes.
These demons don't panic. Among them, two inconspicuous Flame Demons and Wind Demons rapidly expand in size, and their auras also skyrocket to Ninth Level.
On the battlefield, a Flame Demon Giant covered in magma heavy armor and a Wind Demon Giant wrapped in a storm of thousands of miles appear. The former is in the mid-stage of Ninth Level, and the latter exudes a terrifying late-stage Ninth Level aura.
As soon as they appear, two giant Demon Mountains tear the earth apart, rise into the air, suppress the void, and envelop Black King City.
"You've finally decided to show yourself, Demon Fox Matriarch."
A hurricane-condensed whip appeared in the Wind Demon's hand, as it said grimly.
"Join the Abyss, Hell has already been reduced to a pawn of the Netherworld, and the Seventy-Two Pillars exist in name only. Either defect to the Star Realm, or die without a burial place."
The Flame Demon advised.
The Demon Fox Master remained silent, contemplating how to escape. As things stood, if it escaped alone, it was confident... but if it did, its Demon Fox Tribe, and the Devil Elephant Tribe that had submitted to it, would basically be finished. As for taking the tribes to join the Abyss, that was even more impossible.
Boom! The giant pillar trembled violently, and the Demon Fox Master suddenly attacked! Boundless Black Flame formed a whip that could tear the Sky and split the Earth, sweeping out horizontally.
Bang! The Wind Demon Lord's whip lashed out, repelling it. The Flame Demon's giant axe came down, unstoppable. The two Ninth Level Demons attacked simultaneously, destroying the Heavens and extinguishing the Earth! "Since you don't cherish the opportunity given to you, then die!"
The Demon Fox Master said in a low voice, "You all retreat, as many as can escape should escape."
It had long been mentally prepared for this day to come.
The Demon Fox Matriarch and the others did not flee.
"Why aren't you running?"
"My Lord, we want to fight alongside you!"
"..."
A fierce battle began.
The reason why the Demon Fox Matriarch and the others were unwilling to escape was because they knew that their master was already on the way...
They believed that their master could change everything, and that staying by their master's side was the safest option. On the other hand, escaping might lead to other unforeseen circumstances, ambushed by other hidden tricks left by the demons.
Of course, the Demon Fox Master didn't know this. It only thought that these demons were loyal to it, and it was actually a little touched. It became even more determined to protect these subordinates no matter what, as they would definitely be of great use in the future.
The two demons' attacks became increasingly fierce. The Wind Demon's whip shattered the Demon Fox Master's giant pillar phantom, and then wrapped around the Demon Fox Master's body like a long snake, tightening suddenly. At the same time, the Flame Demon raised its hand and waved, and a beam of fire shot out, attacking the Demon Fox Master's head.
The Demon Fox Master revealed its true form, narrowly blocking this attack, but the terrifying offensive from the Wind Demon had already torn apart its defenses. The fox body was instantly torn apart, scattering in all directions, turning into countless small foxes fleeing in all directions.
"Trying to run?"
The Wind Demon chanted a spell.
Above the Sky Dome, a giant storm covering tens of thousands of miles pressed down, and in an instant, almost all of the small foxes vanished, leaving only one suppressed within.
"Too weak!" The Wind Demon said coldly.
Just as it was about to be submerged by the storm, ripples spread out above the little fox's head, and a monkey hanging upside down in the void, scratching its ears and cheeks, appeared. With a monkey reaching for the moon, it took the Demon Fox Master away, and then disappeared into the terrifying storm.
"Who is it?"
The Wind Demon was uncertain and suspicious.
Brilliant golden light pushed away the dark clouds in the Sky, and in the center of that infinitely high world, a figure wearing Black Armor sat on a golden throne, its gaze majestic and overbearing.
"Twilight Hall Master?!"
The Flame Demon exclaimed in surprise, feeling fear in its heart. The number of demons this person had killed was equivalent to the results of a hundred Wizard World standard battle groups.
Beside the golden throne, the Demon Fox Master's figure appeared, and it looked at the man in front of it with lingering fear, its nine tails involuntarily prostrating. It felt immense pressure from this person.
Levi ignored it, looking at the two demons who wanted to slip away, and pressed down with his right hand in the void. A white world pressed down horizontally, and a Wind Thunder Emperor Palace descended from it. Accompanied by a rumbling sound, the Flame Demon's majestic figure began to hunch over, and then was ruthlessly suppressed on the ground, unable to move.
Above the Wind Demon's head, a vast ocean appeared, and a giant whale thousands of miles long emerged from it, suppressing it with its magnificent power.
Ninth Ring spell - Long Whale Suppresses the Sea!
Then, as the Wizard Marks on the Chaos Dragon's body, like scales, flickered, various Primal Soul spells descended together. Nine Suns Suspend in the Sky, Myriad Forms Heavenly Thunder, Primordial Magnetic Giant Soldier, Giant of Light... The shock of this scene was reflected in the hearts of all the demons and devils, and they would never forget it from then on! Especially the Primordial Magnetic Giant Soldier and the Giant of Light, they surrounded the Wind Demon, who was at the late stage of Ninth Level, on the left and right. The Giant of Light's energy rays, shock waves, and light energy floating cannons outputted frantically. Under the absolute attribute suppression, the Wind Demon, despite having the advantage in realm, was at a disadvantage for a time.
"Damn it, damn it!"
The Wind Demon roared and struggled, the terrifying storm wanting to crush and tear everything in front of it. The whip waved, temporarily repelling these annoying summons, but what awaited it was a bright sword Qi! This sword Qi came from the golden throne tens of thousands of miles away. The Black Armor figure was still sitting there, calm and unhurried. He didn't even get up, yet he suppressed two demons. One of them was still at the late stage of Ninth Level! The Demon Fox Master stared intently at all of this, shocked in its heart. What kind of strength was this? Many people did not live up to their reputation. But this Twilight Hall Master, the rumors it had heard were too conservative! The Purgatory Demon Sword split the Eighth Level Demon in front of it with one sword. It looked at the familiar figure on the throne and couldn't help but howl, almost breaking its throat!
"Awesome! Big brother is awesome!"
The Demon Fox Matriarch, the Devil Elephant Master, and the three sisters all breathed a sigh of relief. With the master's arrival, the situation was set. The defeat of these two demons was only a matter of time. After a hundred years, the master's strength had become even more terrifying.
The other devils were seeing Levi take action for the first time. Although they were from different camps and had once been enemies, they couldn't help but cheer. Compared to the Twilight Hall Master, the Demon Fox Master, who was also at the Ninth Level, paled in comparison. And these lower-level devils probably couldn't imagine that the two were actually at the same realm.
The monstrous sword Qi slashed down, and the Wind Demon tried its best to resist. Endless gales forged armor, layer upon layer... But no matter how many layers appeared, what awaited it was destruction in an instant. It hadn't experienced this feeling of despair for a long time.
Crackle! The sword Qi tore the Wind Demon's body in half, and it transformed into a wisp of nothingness, merging into the void rift caused by the violent collision, trying to escape.
On the throne, a deep red crack split open between Levi's eyebrows, revealing a dragon-like vertical pupil like a compound eye. Substantial beams of light scattered, enveloping all directions and dimensions, sensing everything, with nothing able to hide! This was the terrifying power of the Crimson Eyes! In an instant, Levi locked onto the Wind Demon's figure, which had already fled tens of thousands of miles into the void. He let out a villainous snort, and the corners of his mouth turned up.
"Nightmare World Descent!"
In an instant, a world of red and black crossed endless time and space, squeezing into the void dimension, enveloping the Wind Demon that had already escaped hundreds of thousands of miles! "No, this is impossible!"
The Wind Demon was imprisoned in the Nightmare World. All it could see was red and black. Countless Nightmare Creatures lurked within the four fields, spying on it. Extreme fear grew and spread in its heart.
At some point, a giant beast with broken wings, a dragon head, a scorpion tail, and covered in dreamlike colorful scales descended from the Sky Dome, opening the vertical pupil on its forehead.
"Where do you think you're going?"
The giant beast spoke in human language, transforming into a Black Armor Swordsman, the very same Levi who was used to guard the Nightmare World as an all-weather working avatar! Although it only had half of his strength, it was obviously enough to deal with an injured Wind Demon who had been scared out of its wits.
Roar! The giant beast pounced on the Wind Demon. The Crimson Eyes shot out a terrifying red light, submerging into the Wind Demon's body. Dragon claws were like knives, tearing everything apart, and the poisonous needle scorpion tail injected a tricky toxin. Before long, the Wind Demon was on its last breath.
"Get out!"
With a thought from the Nightmare beast avatar, the Wind Demon disappeared from sight.
When it reappeared, it was already in the Adamantine Heaven. The man was still sitting on the throne, not having gotten up. His smile was so hideous and smug, making the demon afraid, as if he was the real demon!
"Don't be happy too soon. Among the hundreds of Tenth Level experts in the Abyss, there will always be someone who can take you down. Even if you, like Sauron, fight your way to the 666th floor step by step, it will be in vain. You will find that the Abyss is far more... unfathomable than you think!"
The Wind Demon was losing the battle but not the war, still clamoring.
Boom! Legendary and Mythical giant beast phantoms descended from the Sky, roaring and crushing everything in front of them. The Wind Demon was torn apart like being drawn and quartered, dying in agony. In the end, only a broken, ten-thousand-foot-long demon corpse remained.
Levi waved his hand, and the demon corpse was collected. Only then did he look to the other side, where the Eighth Level Flame Demon was still suppressed under the Wind Thunder Emperor Palace. It watched as its teammate was toyed to death by the Twilight Hall Master in a crushing manner.
Levi clenched his right hand.
Bang! The Wind Thunder Emperor Palace plummeted, completely shattering the Flame Demon's body, turning it into a torrent of flesh and blood, surging towards Levi. The Bloody Battle Armor greedily absorbed everything belonging to the Flame Demon, feeling extremely satisfied.
Current unlocking progress: 8/10.
The Demon Fox Master, as docile as a puppy, lay in front of Levi's throne, watching Levi perform this heart-warming demon hunting feast. It shook its body and transformed into a human form, bowing slightly and saying, "Sode Li Na greets the Twilight Hall Master."
"I have long heard of the Demon Fox Master's name."
"Compared to you, it's far from enough."
"I still have some things to do, please make yourself at home."
After solving the two Eighth Level Demons, Levi stood up. He came to the high Sky, looked at the dark mass of demon army below, and smiled:
"Today, I will plunder the Creation of the Wind Demon and sacrifice the lives of these countless demons to refine the Wind Emperor's Robe!"
With a wave of his hand, four Spirit Soldiers exuding Eighth Ring auras lined up in all directions, sealing off the battlefield. The Eternal Star Abyss hung high in the Sky Dome like a star.
Beams of starlight refracted from the sealed stars, flying towards the four fields, eventually weaving a giant net covering tens of thousands of miles.
Thousands upon thousands of shadows emerged, the most conspicuous of which were undoubtedly the leading 49 Eighth Level Demon Generals, with strengths ranging from early Eighth Level to late Eighth Level.
Over the past few years, Levi would occasionally go to the battlefield to hunt demons, and coupled with the hunting of many Ninth Level Demons, he finally formed a lineup of 49 Demon Generals!
Of course, this was not the end.
In the near future, Ninth Level shadows would also join. Levi planned to name them Demon King, and Tenth Level shadows would naturally be Demon Emperor. One day, he would make the Abyss's forces his own! Countless demons were trapped in this world. They either fled or struggled, but to no avail. In the end, they kept shrinking and huddled together, like sheep waiting to be slaughtered. The devils also felt a thud in their hearts when they saw this scene.
"What is the Twilight Hall Master going to do?"
"I don't know, it feels like some kind of ritual."
Levi used the Sky and Earth as a canvas, sending one rare material after another into it, arranging complex and mysterious Magic Array patterns.
They emitted soul-stirring light, soaring into the Sky. Rolling dark clouds began to gather, Thunder filled them, and the vast Heavenly might of destroying all things descended.
Levi concentrated on his Magic Array arrangement. The artificial refining of any Truth Wonder must go through tribulations similar to the Three Calamities and Four Tribulations of a Wizard.
Taking the Creation of Heaven and Earth and going against the Heavens required this. He was already mentally prepared. The Chaos Dragon coiled above his head, its dragon whiskers fluttering, its dragon mane flying, and its dragon eyes solemnly watching the tribulation clouds.
Rumble! A thick Thunder pillar descended from the Sky, unstoppable! The Chaos Dragon rotated like a yin-yang fish, absorbing it.
Then, the second, the third... More and more Thunder pillars, fire rain, ice mountains, and meteorites descended, each of which was enough to give Ninth Level experts a headache.
The birth of a Sun Flare Wonder was quite difficult. Especially for the Wind Emperor's Robe, which could synthesize a Legendary Wonder.
After a full 81 attacks, the Chaos Dragon was still alive and kicking, hovering above Levi's head like a natural barrier, unbreakable by anyone below the Tenth Level! And refining a Sun Flare Wonder wouldn't trigger a Tenth Level attack.
This was the ingenuity of the Element Certificate. Of course, when the final seven Wonders were combined, he still couldn't escape the tribulations of a Legendary Wonder.
Other Great Wizards usually dealt with it using the prototype of a Legendary spell they had mastered. Success meant survival, failure meant all previous efforts were in vain.
Levi, on the other hand, had more options. By the time he needed to combine the Legendary Wonders, his physical body alone would be enough to overcome such a calamity. The advantage of cultivating multiple paths simultaneously was once again highlighted, invisibly increasing the probability of advancing to Legend.
The tribulation dissipated, and within the giant Magic Array, all the demons had long since turned into pools of blood. Their souls were bound within, entangled like vengeful spirits. The body of the Ninth Level Wind Demon floated in the void. It disintegrated within the Magic Array, and the vast power of the wind element surged forth, returning to heaven and earth.
Levi, holding a brush-like Magic Array tool, outlined points of flickering light in the void, illuminating them like a spell model. Eventually, they formed a faint phantom of a robe.
He adorned it with the Ninth Level Wind Truth Runes he had mastered, chanting incantations. Without the knowledge level of the Ninth Ring, it would be impossible to refine such a Wonder.
Time passed second by second, more and more Wind Runes solidified, and the robe became more and more real. In contrast, the blood pool formed by the sacrifice of countless demons began to visibly decrease, and the soul of the Ninth Level Wind Demon also began to disintegrate.
And so, a month passed. During this time, more demons came, trying to cause trouble, but Levi sent them directly into the Magic Array, becoming part of the refinement.
On the eve of the ritual's completion, Levi suddenly opened his Crimson Eyes, a sense of danger surging like a tide, malice like needles piercing his spirit.
He exhaled and murmured, "The Tenth Level is here."
Rumble! Heaven and earth trembled, and a pair of hands that blotted out the sky tore the curtain, revealing a hideous, enormous head with double horns behind it. Magma and Fierce Fire spewed out, dyeing the Sky Dome red. Without a doubt, it was a Flame Demon.
In the Abyss, the Earth-Fire Wind-Water demon clans were the most prosperous, and their representative races were the Gargoyles, Flame Demons, Wind Demons, and Fish Demons.
There were many Tenth Level powerhouses, but most of them were Lords in the upper layers of the Abyss. The one before him was the Lord of the 180th layer of the Abyss, the Flame King I Nuerde!
The dead Ninth Level intermediate Flame Demon was its subordinate. It sensed the changes here and decided to personally meet this Twilight Hall Master. A muffled thunder-like voice came, and the Flame King condensed a red-hot Wolf Tooth Club in its palm.
Its right arm was knotted with muscles, surrounded by dragons, and like hitting a baseball, it intertwined all its Strength and flames, and swung it out suddenly!
The power of this strike shattered the void tens of thousands of miles ahead like glass, and the annihilating gale swept in, unstoppable.
Behind Levi, the Primal Soul Emperor and the Chaos Dragon all emerged, and the Six Saint Heavens descended together, layer upon layer, bursting out with the most intense sparks.
The power of the six Supreme bloodlines converged, four layers of Destruction Saint Domain, three layers of Adamantine Saint Domain… All the power of the Saint Domains surrounded him, reshaping the armor and Emperor Sword for the Primal Soul Emperor. The colorful cloak fluttered, and the Emperor drew his sword, facing the difficulties and wanting to shake the Tenth Level! At the same time, around the Chaos Dragon, Fire Dragon Tribulation, Ice Dragon Prison, Thunder Dragon Flash… dozens of Wizard Mark shone brightly. With the blessing of Magic Runes, even Primal Soul spells were close to instantaneous.
Thunder Ghoul, Storm Giant Spirit, Valkyrie's Spear… Nine Suns Suspend in the Sky, Myriad Forms Heavenly Thunder, except for the bottom-of-the-box Disintegration Art, all the spells were cast, reflecting the world, following the Chaos Dragon, and killing after the Emperor! The nine thousand town-sealing stars of Eternal Star Abyss shone, transforming into a 90,000-meter-high starlight giant, exuding the aura of wanting to compete with the Sky, rising from the ground, and turning into the last sword that Levi gave to the Flame King! This was Levi's first frontal collision with the Tenth Level. He knew that he was likely not an opponent, but he also wanted to take this opportunity to test his Strength.
The Lord of the 180th floor of the Abyss should belong to the bottom level of the Tenth Level, similar to the weak gods of the Star Realm. Judging from the intensity of the dangerous perception, its Strength was not as good as the Red Crow who chased Levi last time.
The Primal Soul Emperor, representing the path of the Knight, collided with the gale first. The Six Saint Heavens trembled and shattered one by one, and the phantoms of the Lords of Blood Tribulation were also rapidly annihilated. This was the suppression of absolute realm, and there was no solution.
The Chaos Dragon, representing the path of the Wizard, came to kill, and spells exploded like fireworks, Earth-Fire Wind-Water, Thunder, Frost all burst out, and the dazzling white light of tens of thousands of miles shone, and all the devils could not help but close their eyes.
The Wizard Tower offensive, representing the crystallization of Wizard wisdom such as weapon-making and Magic Arrays, arrived, and the starlight giant collided like a star.
The three waves of fierce offensives shattered one after another under the Tenth Level offensive, but the remaining gale was also weakened a lot. Seeing this, Levi already had some confidence in his heart.
Although the Truth Wonder was still a bit short, it was about to be refined. Next, he could change a place to continue the finishing touches. However, Levi was not in a hurry to leave.
"Tuk tuk tuk!"
Horses trampled the void, and warhorses neighed.
A figure wearing dark heavy armor rode a Purgatory Pegasus, shattering the world. Its pale skull had protruding bone spurs, forming a circle of pale crowns, and its burly body wore a night-like cloak that billowed towards the horizon. The hollow eye sockets contained sun-like hot undead fire!
Hell Seventh Pillar Death Knell Knight! Also known as the Skeleton Knight, or the King of the Undead, representing the highest combat power of the undead! The heavy broadsword in its hand was made of the bones of some ancient fierce creature, exuding a black dim light that distorted space, and an unspeakable transcendent domineering!
Treasure Ranking Eighteenth Overlord! Although the name is simple and unpretentious and slightly rustic, it is definitely worthy of the name! The Death Knell Knight jumped from the horse, and the Overlord Black Sword slashed down, an invisible aura distorted space, and even made time chaotic.
Overlord Profound Meaning First Form Chaos Sky! The black hole-like sword light swallowed everything along the way, and the Flame King resisted with a Wolf Tooth Club. With a click, this Ninth Level peak exotic treasure made of Tenth Level material easily shattered.
"This... how can this undead be so strong?"
The Flame King was horrified. It stands to reason that the Death Knell Knight, as the Seventh Pillar of Hell, has a similar status to itself, and its Strength should also be evenly matched. Never expected that in just one round, its weapon would be cut off by the black giant sword.
In fact, I Nuerde had even fought against the Eye of Vengeance Dilus of the Third Pillar before, and was no match for the opponent. But it can understand, after all, the Eye of Vengeance is already a Tenth Level intermediate powerhouse.
But now the feeling that the Death Knell Knight gives it is even stronger than the Third Pillar... This is not reasonable. Now is not the time to struggle with this matter. It conjured a magma giant sword to block the remaining sword light, and at the same time began to retreat. It was just here to meet the Twilight Hall Master, and did not want to start a war with the Tenth Level for the time being.
Suddenly, a dark space channel appeared behind it, and the Death Knell Knight rode a horse to kill, another knife!
Overlord Profound Meaning Second Form Night Banquet! This knife was too strange to guard against.
"This is a treasure that can distort space and even time?"
I Nuerde panicked and could only resist with its powerful demon body. It now felt that the knife just now had unknowingly stolen a breath of its time. The difference of one breath made it completely unable to react and was hit! I Nuerde's arms were cut off, and the demon body was split in half.
"World-Annihilating Earth-Fire!"
Boom, boom, boom! Countless volcanoes and magma erupted, tearing through the eighth layer of Hell, unleashing a devastating wide-range attack. The Death Knell Knight rode his Purgatory Pegasus through it all, unleashing a sweeping, all-encompassing slash!
Overlord Secret Art: Across the River!
This strike was a desperate gamble, embodying invincibility, breaking what is to create anew! Volcanoes were extinguished as if a storm swept away dying candles!
I Nuerde was blasted away for hundreds of thousands of miles, crashing into countless mountains. It raised layers of earth, sending them crashing towards the Death Knell Knight. Yet, its hollow gaze showed no fear as it unleashed its strongest slash to date!
Overlord Secret Art: Heroic Ghost!
With this slash, from the first layer's Death Wilderness to the seventh layer's Dragonfall Valley, and then to the eighth layer's Undead Paradise... countless undead in Hell seemed to be summoned, raising their heads and roaring to welcome the king of the undead, the monarch of all ghosts! Boom! A chasm stretching for ten thousand miles formed, and I Nuerde's lower demonic body was directly blasted away, causing it to roar in agony. Another blade of light arrived, but a thick, earth-covered giant hand tore through the void, blocking it in front of the Flame Demon.
Tear!
The earth layer on the giant hand was torn apart, revealing obsidian-like demonic skin. The blade of light left a deep gash on it, causing demonic blood to flow freely. Accompanied by a slight muffled groan, this incredibly fierce slash was blocked.
A giant stone face appeared in the clouds, indifferent and emotionless.
"The Supreme Treasure Overlord reappears in the Sky Dome. I didn't expect you to obtain it. No wonder you could easily wound I Nuerde."
The Death Knell Knight, still mounted, looked up at the Sky Dome, his gaze solemn. A hoarse, ancient voice murmured, "Abyss 653rd Layer Lord, Opha Ender, Earth Demon Master, Gargoyle King Vale Reid... it seems you've joined the Bloody Battle."
The Earth Demon Master said coldly, "I'm here to end this farce."
In the void, another thick arm descended, but it pressed down not on the Death Knell Knight, but on the Twilight Hall Master, who was fleeing with Black King City! "Bullying the weak with strength, truly shameless! The Wizard fears you, Vale Reid, but this king does not!" The Death Knell Knight unleashed another slash, trying to intercept the arm.
"Like a mantis trying to stop a chariot!"
The Earth Demon Master completely ignored the Death Knell Knight's attack.
Rumble! In the void where Black King City was located, another giant pillar descended. Its diameter was dozens of times larger than the Demon Fox Pillar.
Above it, a giant beast that resembled an elephant, a hippopotamus, a bull, an ape, an alligator... it could resemble any creature, descended. Its broad back was like a silverback gorilla, and its thick arms were not inferior to the Earth Demon Master's.
Hell Sixth Pillar, Beast Monarch, King of Beasts, Beamon! It roared to the Sky Dome, its arms entwined with dragon-like demonic muscles, and the surging power of a hundred beasts smashed towards the Earth Demon Master's single arm.
Boom! The terrifying impact swept across a hundred thousand miles.
Levi had already moved the entire Black King City, fleeing from this place. He looked at the giant stone face in the Sky Dome, imprinting it in his mind.
"This Earth Demon Master is probably heading for the Nora battlefield. The situation of the upcoming Bloody Battle has worsened again... So many Gargoyles will be difficult to deal with."
Three of the Four Demon Masters had already arrived, leaving only the Water Demon Master, who had yet to appear, but it was only a matter of time.
The vast Nether Mother River descended, and the Nether Kings rode their skeletal warhorses, riding the waves. In front, a golden light broke through the boundary, revealing a handsome, golden-haired swordsman. He drew his sword and slashed, and an endless aura of death permeated the air. Where the sword energy passed, the Sky Dome was marked with the mottled traces of time.
The Stone Demon Master's giant arm was unable to retract in time and took the blow head-on. Instantly, it was covered in wrinkles like an old man, fragile and bukan, and emitted a painful groan. It should be known that it had remained unfazed when facing the Overlord's slash from the Death Knell Knight.
"Thirteenth Nether Emperor, Nine Deaths Swordsman!" The Earth Demon Master quickly retreated, his gaze fixed on the golden-haired swordsman.
Suddenly, the Flame Demon's scream was heard. It was distracted, and another giant pillar descended from the Sky Dome. A figure like a hawk swooped down, grabbed I Nuerde's demonic body, and flew to the top of the giant pillar.
It had a hawk's head and a human body, its wings were like blades, and it held a scepter in its hand. A storm of death energy swirled around it, and the Flame Demon's body was pierced by thousands of sword feathers, still struggling.
The Nine Deaths Swordsman held his sword and said, "This I Nuerde will be taken as compensation for your troubles over the past few centuries... Vale Reid, do you dare to fight me?"
The Earth Demon Master's gaze was gloomy, and his figure dissipated, leaving only an echoing voice.
"Don't be anxious. One day, the Abyssal army will flatten Hell, sweep through the Netherworld, and the Nether Mother River will also submit to the Supreme Will. You are too conservative and backward, satisfied with the current state of the Multiverse! What we are doing is not invasion, but unification, integration, and climbing higher! Only the Abyss, with its enterprising spirit, can lead the Multiverse to open up a wider world!"
The Nine Deaths Swordsman stood with his sword, silent.
Having completed their tasks, the Beast Monarch and the Death Knell Knight each dissipated. Only a scene of devastation remained where Black King City had been.
On a plain.
Black King City slowly landed. The demons, who had just witnessed a tenth-level battle, were still in shock, their hearts heavy. The Purgatory Demon Sword said, "Fortunately, Big Brother, you arrived in time. The winds of war are ever-changing, and life and death are unpredictable."
At this moment, he yearned for the Ninth Ring even more.
He not only wanted the Ninth Ring, but he also wanted to cultivate both magic and body refinement to the Ninth Ring. Only in this way could he barely keep up with Big Brother and not fall too far behind.
On the other side, the Demon Fox Master's heart was racing, and it didn't dare to look directly at Levi. It didn't expect that two Wizard World supernovas would be willing to help demons! If Levi hadn't acted just now, Black King City would have ceased to exist! This spirit of internationalism, abandoning past grudges, was truly precious! It even made this demon feel a little moved and tearful!
Furthermore, the personal arrival of two tenth-level pillars and even the Nine Deaths Swordsman to confront the Earth Demon Master for the sake of the Twilight Hall Master further demonstrated the high status of the Twilight Hall Master in the Netherworld.
It believed that if it were itself, the pillars might take action, but the Nine Deaths Swordsman would most likely not come in person, so it felt a little envious and jealous.
Finally, it put away its complex emotions and performed a grand salute, saying, "Thank you, Your Excellency."
Levi said with a righteous and awe-inspiring tone, "There's no need to be polite. We are allies now, how could I stand idly by?"
The void rippled open, the Purgatory Pegasus neighed, and the Death Knell Knight descended, accompanied by the White Bone Lady, who smiled and said, "Lord Levi, long time no see."
Levi smiled and said, "Thank you, Madam, thank you, Death Knell Knight."
It seemed that the White Bone Lady also played a part in the Death Knell Knight saving him. Saving this woman back then was indeed the right choice; this good karma was worth it.
The Death Knell Knight was quite polite, saying, "Seeing is believing. To dare to face I Nuerde head-on with a Ninth Level body, the Twilight Hall Master's reputation is well-deserved!"
Levi sincerely praised, "Senior's strikes just now were truly impressive and have given me much inspiration."
The Death Knell Knight caressed the black blade.
"I am merely relying on the advantage of a supreme treasure. This blade is named Overlord. It was left behind by a former supreme expert of the Multiverse, and after countless years, I obtained it."
Levi had only heard of Overlord, but this was his first time seeing it.
According to Treasure Dragon Master's assessment, this blade had an extraordinary origin, suspected to be forged from the remains of an ancient ferocious creature. When the blade was drawn, space would be distorted, and time would be affected.
Not everyone could wield this blade; it depended on compatibility. If used by the right person, its power would be comparable to the top ten items on the supreme treasure list, but if used by an ordinary person, it might just be a mediocre weapon. Therefore, Treasure Dragon Master ultimately ranked it 18th.
Judging from the battle just now, this blade was extremely compatible with the Death Knell Knight, allowing a Tenth Level early-stage expert to suppress a Flame Demon of the same realm. Displaying Tenth Level mid-stage power was indeed extraordinary! Seeing the Death Knell Knight exchanging pleasantries with Levi, the White Bone Lady and the Demon Fox Master went to chat aside. In fact, their relationship was only so-so, but because of Levi, it had obviously improved a lot.
Levi chatted with the Death Knell Knight for a long time. After learning more, his goodwill towards this undead expert increased considerably. Moreover, he could sense that this expert must have something to ask of him.
As they chatted, the Death Knell Knight suddenly mentioned his past life.
"In my previous life, I was the ruler of a medium-sized civilized country, and I once established a powerful empire, but in the end, I died before reaching Ninth Level. After being reborn as an undead, I progressed very smoothly, step by step, reaching Tenth Level. I am valued by the Netherworld and have held the position of the Seventh Pillar for tens of thousands of years. However, the path of the undead is too difficult to improve, and its potential is not as good as yours. Therefore, I have a request..."
"Please speak."
"After this Hell Bloody Battle is over, I wish to cultivate again in a new life, reincarnating in the Twilight Temple built by Your Excellency, to be a true Knight. You are the master of the temple, and I am a pillar of Hell. This matter still needs to be discussed with you, so as to avoid misunderstandings."
Hearing what the Death Knell Knight said, Levi was a little surprised.
"Your Excellency should still have a lot of Lifespan left, right?"
"Yes."
"Are you willing to give up your Tenth Level cultivation in this life?"
"If it is difficult to improve further, what is the point of living longer?"
"Admirable, admirable, I have no problem with that. Just let me know before Your Excellency reincarnates, and perhaps I can help you find a better reincarnation."
"That is my intention, thank you!"
"By the way, what was Your Excellency's identity in your previous life? Is it convenient to tell me?"
The Death Knell Knight looked up at the Sky and sighed:
"The past is but fleeting smoke, there is nothing inconvenient... My previous life was the king of the Corona Clan, the Victory King Arthur!"
