Chapter 519: Chapter 23 Visiting the Demon Ancestor_2

They believed that Hongmeng would surely create another miracle.

"What? Shattering an Innate Treasure with a single finger? And a top-tier Innate Treasure at that? Are you joking?"

"Even a Supreme One couldn’t shatter a top-tier Innate Treasure with one finger!"

The Emperor Level Warriors who had just rushed over simply didn’t believe it, because it was simply impossible. Emperor Level Warriors couldn’t possibly be that strong. They had never heard of an Emperor Level Warrior as powerful as this, not from ancient times to the present. There had been none.

"Hmph, you’ll know in a moment!"

Shattering an Innate Treasure with one finger? Is this true?the Nine Yao Heavenly Emperor murmured to himself. He too was a prodigy, his combat strength far surpassing his peers. Before Hongmeng’s appearance, he had long held first place on the Beheading Demon List, a testament to his prowess. Yet, the thought of shattering an Innate Treasure with his bare hands was something he dared not even contemplate.

"Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect!"

Just then, Hongmeng, who had been sitting in the Golden Chariot all along, finally made his move. His figure soared into the sky, and endless Sword Qi erupted from him as the epicenter. This technique, obtained by Xiong Ba from the Fengyun World after the blood sacrifice of Wu Ming, had been transformed from a martial arts move into a Great Divine Power, amplified by the Infinite Amplification Plug-in. Now, as Hongmeng executed it, the sky once again filled with soaring Sword Qi, but its power had increased countlessfold. Each stream of Sword Qi *was* one of Hongmeng’s Paths, cultivated to the Peak Divine Emperor level and condensed into form.

BUZZ, BUZZ, BUZZ.

In an instant, a vast ocean of Sword Qi burst forth with Hongmeng at its center, instantly shattering septillions of kilometers of the surrounding void. Under this deluge of Sword Qi condensed from the Paths, hundreds of Demon Emperors were annihilated, body and soul, before they could even utter a sound. Those slightly stronger managed to block the first wave of Sword Qi, but the second wave, the third wave... Under this relentless, endless ocean of Sword Qi, out of more than a thousand Demon Emperors, only a few dozen remained in less than a single breath. This naturally included the War Dragon Demon Emperor, Black Tiger Demon Emperor, and Gold Snake Demon Emperor.

At this moment, they couldn’t even think of attacking. They held various protective treasures above their heads, yet they were still coughing up blood under the relentless onslaught of the endless Sword Qi. Their Spiritual Treasures dimmed, their light flickering as if on the verge of collapse.

CRACK, CRACK, CRACK.

At this moment, the Abyss Map, which moments before had been imposing and had blotted out the sky with its terrifying aura, now showed cracks, its light dimming.

"No..." a Demon Emperor in humanoid form cried out, utterly dumbfounded as he saw the Abyss Map fracture.

However, as the Abyss Map cracked, creating gaps in its defense, the endless Sword Qi surged through these openings like needles, annihilating this Demon Emperor, body and soul.

The nearby surviving Demon Emperors, like the War Dragon Demon Emperor, Black Tiger Demon Emperor, and Gold Snake Demon Emperor, were terror-stricken. They wanted to flee, but they were simply unable to retreat. Any movement meant immediate death, yet staying still only delayed the inevitable; they wouldn’t last much longer either.

At this moment, they paradoxically calmed down. They knew they wouldn’t survive.

The War Dragon Demon Emperor began to leave his last words, transmitted back to the Abyssal Dimension Headquarter, "I am War Dragon. Our plan to ambush Hongmeng has failed!

"It’s not that there was a problem with our plan, but Hongmeng is too monstrous. He has no other powerhouses by his side, yet he himself is an invincible existence!

"We gathered one thousand two hundred Demon Emperors to power the Lihuo God Furnace and ambushed him. However, he shattered it with a single finger, killing or injuring dozens of Demon Emperors on the spot.

"Our remaining Demon Emperors joined forces, using every method available. But Hongmeng executed a move called Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect. Endless Sword Qi burst forth, instantly annihilating hundreds of Demon Emperors.

"The few dozen of us remaining Demon Emperors won’t be able to hold on for much longer. This person is too monstrous. Once he fully matures, he will be a catastrophe for the Abyssal Dimension. We must eliminate him at all costs! Remember this well!"

BUZZ.

No sooner had the War Dragon Demon Emperor transmitted his last words than his defenses were breached by the Sword Qi. In the next moment, he was annihilated, body and soul. The other few dozen surviving Demon Emperors met the same fate shortly afterward.

In less than ten breaths, all one thousand two hundred plus Demon Emperors had perished.

The world fell into a deathly silence.

The hundreds of Emperor Level Warriors from the Eternal Continent, drawn by the commotion, stood frozen in place as if petrified, their eyes wide with horror and disbelief.

Is this truly a Divine Emperor?If someone claimed he was a God Master, none of them would doubt it.

"Worthy of being my man! I can’t hold back anymore!" Zhan Lianxue’s eyes sparkled, her heart pounding. She threw herself into Hongmeng’s arms, her fair, slender arms wrapping tightly around him as she kissed him passionately.

"Damn it!"

"My goddess!"

"This is too explosive!"

"Sob, sob..."

The countless Emperor Level Warriors around them were dumbfounded; the change in scene was too abrupt. Wasn’t this a scene of carnage just moments ago? How did it suddenly turn into a public display of affection? And all this while Hongmeng was still standing in the void.

"This girl is really wild!" Hongmeng mused. He picked up Zhan Lianxue and, with a single step, arrived inside the Golden Chariot.

He had just slaughtered one thousand two hundred Demon Emperors, and the terrifying baleful and resentful qi from the massacre still clung to him. Although his strength was formidable and this qi could not harm him, as he would eventually dispel it, it still made him feel somewhat irritable. After all, these were one thousand two hundred Demon Emperors, each comparable to a Saint of Primordial Chaos. It was as if Hongmeng had, in less than a minute, slaughtered one thousand two hundred Saints. If it were anyone else, not just an Emperor Level Warrior but even a Supreme One, would have their mind corrupted by such terrifying baleful and resentful qi, transforming into a deranged killer, slaughtering indiscriminately.

Since Zhan Lianxue was so excited, it was a perfect opportunity for her to help him cleanse the baleful and resentful qi.

"Brother Hong, I love you!"

Just as Hongmeng, holding Zhan Lianxue, was about to enter the deeper palace chambers, Empress Jiuxuan, with a look of determination, suddenly embraced him. She had to fight for herself. Such a man... she wanted him too. Empress Jiuxuan had never considered herself inferior to anyone in her entire life.

"Good!" Hongmeng reached out and hoisted Empress Jiuxuan onto his other shoulder.

The baleful and resentful qi on him was indeed too heavy. Zhan Lianxue alone definitely couldn’t handle it all. She was his woman, after all, and Hongmeng didn’t want to hurt her. Empress Jiuxuan’s arrival was opportune; she could share the burden.

Hongmeng, holding the two women, vanished instantly inside the Golden Chariot.

"Ah, ah, ah... my Empress Jiuxuan!"

"Yours? In your dreams! Ugh, my Empress Jiuxuan..."

The surrounding toadies of Empress Jiuxuan were in utter despair. Empress Jiuxuan was formerly second on the Beheading Demon List and currently third, a figure of coexisting talent and beauty. Legend also had it that she possessed an extremely terrifying and mysterious background. Suitors and toadies were naturally as numerous as crucian carp crossing a river.

However, today, their goddess was gone. Their happiness... with a snap, it was gone. It had all become Hongmeng’s happiness.

If not for the terrifying might Hongmeng had displayed by exterminating one thousand two hundred Demon Emperors before their very eyes, they would have undoubtedly rushed forward to reclaim their goddess.

Hongmeng, invincible in the Emperor realm!The Nine Yao Heavenly Emperor sighed inwardly and turned to leave. He knew that he would probably never surpass Hongmeng in this lifetime. However, he resolved to take Hongmeng as his goal. By constantly striving to catch up, he believed he would one day achieve accomplishments beyond his wildest imagination.

Seeing Hongmeng slay the Demon Emperors and then depart with the beautiful women to enjoy himself, those powerhouses who had hoped to get acquainted with him could only leave one after another. The crowd dispersed.

Hongmeng paid no mind to any of this. Right now, he only wanted to fiercely vent the baleful and resentful qi accumulated within his body.

「While Hongmeng was dealing with his own issues, the Abyssal Dimension Headquarter erupted.」

Countless Demon Emperors, and even Demon Lords, were in an uproar. This was one thousand two hundred Demon Emperors, not a pack of stray cats and dogs. In less than a minute, they were all annihilated. Perhaps not even a Supreme One could achieve such a feat.

"Damn it! What kind of monster is this Hongmeng? Could he be the reincarnation of some ancient behemoth?"

"The Eternal Continent is cheating!"

"They must give us an explanation; otherwise, it’s all-out war!"

"Yes! They must give us an explanation, or it’s all-out war!"

...

The powerhouses of the Abyssal Dimension were in an uproar. Hongmeng had first wreaked havoc on the Emperor-level Battlefield, and now he had done the same on the Imperial-level Battlefield. Although their Abyssal Dimension’s top combatants were unaffected, their mid-tier forces were nearly wiped out, creating a dangerous gap in their ranks. In the future, even if Hongmeng no longer participated on the Emperor-level and Imperial-level Battlefields, their Abyssal Dimension would be at a complete disadvantage on these two fronts. This was extremely disadvantageous for them.

"Hongmeng must die, or it’s all-out war!"

Just then, a majestic and icy voice rang out, shaking the hearts of the many Demon Lords, who quickly fell to their knees and said respectfully, "We greet the Demon Ancestor!"
