As Mu Chen stood in the sky, he looked at Jiang Ya, who had been mounted on the side of the mountain, and saw that he was in a wretched state. His right arm had been completely smashed.
However, Jiang Ya had a strong desire to live, and although he had been seriously injured, he was still clinging to life. Now and then, he would moan in pain.
When the Heavenly Sovereigns in the Northern Wilderness Hill saw what had happened, they felt as though a burden had been lifted off of their shoulders.
They all heaved huge sighs of relief, then looked at Mu Chen with fear and respect. After all, the blow that Mu Chen had thrown out earlier had reached the level of a later stage Divine Heavenly Sovereign level.
Among the Heavenly Sovereigns who were present, other than Qin Tian, the Green Shirt Sword Saint, and the Undying Lord, even the Clan Leaders and First Elders of the five ancient clans would have to tap into the power of their Clan Suppression Divine Artifacts in order to contend with Jiang Ya.
At the other side of the battle field, those Heavenly Sovereigns who were surrounding the top powers of the Extraterritorial Race started to take control of the situation as well, as they outnumbered them. The Heavenly Sovereigns forced the top powers of the Extraterritorial Race into a corner, thus preventing them from getting close to the Northern Wilderness Hill.
When Qin Tian, the Green Shirt Sword Saint, and the Undying Lord saw that the situation was under control, they finally started to relax.
When Saint Heaven Demon Emperor saw what had happened, his face darkened.
“I have told you before that we cannot depend on these useless clans!” the Black Corpse Heaven Demon Emperor shouted at the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor. “After the battle, send the Evil Spirit Clan to my Corpse Devil Clan so that we can refine them.”
The Saint Heaven Demon Emperor looked cold and ruthless as he replied, “The Evil Spirit Clan has promised us that they will accomplish the mission, and this is why we have allowed them to become part of our Extraterritorial Race. However, they did not seem able to enjoy such good fortune.”
He then added, “As that is the case, let them contribute by helping our Extraterritorial Race win the battle.”
The moment that the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor made his comments, he curled up his lips into a ruthless smile. He then formed a seal with one hand.
When the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor had formed the seal, a black Demonic Rune appeared on Jiang Ya’s glabella. The Demonic Rune squirmed around, then pierced his head.
The pain was excruciating, and Jiang Ya’s eyes were bloodshot. His body trembled and he had a fearful look on his face. Apparently, he knew exactly what was happening to him.
“Jiang Ya, you and your clan members shall do your part, and I will remember the contribution that you made. After we have won the battle, I will remove your Evil Spirit Clan from your lowly position.” The Saint Heaven Demon Emperor’s voice resounded in Jiang Ya’s ears.
Jiang Ya struggled for a while before he shut his eyes in despair. He knew that he was unable to fight back, as he was under the influence of the Demonic Seal of the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor.
He could do nothing, as the Extraterritorial Race could easily kill their Evil Spirit Clan. So, for the sake of his clan members, he had to submit to them.
“Lord Saint Demon, I hope that you will keep your promise,” Jiang Ya said.
“I will.” After the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor responded, the Demonic Seal on Jiang Ya’s glabella squirmed around. It looked as though several Demonic Worms were around it. The worms then entered his eyes!
In a short while, Jiang Ya’s eyes turned black. Then, he lost consciousness. At the same time, the other top powers of the Evil Spirit Clan suddenly froze as the same Demonic Seal appeared on their glabellas!
Jiang Ya’s body left the side of the mountain, and as he floated away, he showed no signs of regaining consciousness. When Mu Chen saw this, he furrowed his brows and felt uneasy. A vast spiritual light gathered in his palms, and he was prepared to destroy Jiang Ya.
But, just as Mu Chen was about to strike, numerous sounds rumbled behind him. At that moment, Mu Chen saw that the top powers of the Evil Spirit Clan were dashing toward Jiang Ya. They stopped beside Jiang Ya, then formed a circle around him by joining their hands together.
“Everyone, let’s join forces and destroy them!” Mu Chen shouted to the other Heavenly Sovereigns, who had just rushed over to him.
Mu Chen then took the lead and struck, throwing out a punch. As he did so, a Glazed Sun Fist Ray shot toward the top powers of the Evil Spirit Clan.
Just as Mu Chen’s attack was about to reach them, several Demonic Runes pierced the flesh of the top powers of the Evil Spirit Clan. Their bodies were like balloons, which were expanding crazily. A horrifying fluctuation then began to exude from their bodies.
“They intend to blow themselves up!” one of the Heavenly Sovereigns exclaimed.
When all of the Heavenly Sovereigns saw the scene, they were frightened out of their wits. After all, the strength of these top powers of the Evil Spirit Clan was comparable to that of a Heavenly Sovereign, and even one of them, Jiang Ya, was a middle-level Divine Heavenly Sovereign!
If all of them blew themselves up at the same time, the power of that explosion would be horrifying! Even a Divine Heavenly Sovereign at the later stage would need to take cover in the face of such a powerful force!
Mu Chen was shocked to see that the top powers of the Evil Spirit Clan had lost their minds. But, before he could think on this any further, a terrifying Demonic Light shot out from the top powers of the Evil Spirit Clan, and all of them, including Jiang Ya, exploded together!
A humongous Black Mushroom Cloud rose up and covered the area. A horrifying shockwave then raged out, causing Mu Chen and the rest to retreat quickly. They had suffered a crushing defeat!
Swoosh!
As the Mushroom Cloud was rising, a Demonic Light Stream came down from the heavens and blasted the ground, flattening the mountains.
“Oh no!” When Mu Chen saw it, he was shocked.
He saw that the Demonic Light Stream had torn the Spiritual Net apart, leaving a big hole in it. As the Demonic Light Stream raged out, it prevented the Spiritual Net from mending itself.
Boom! Boom!
The entire Northern Wilderness Hill started to quake again. Deep under the ground, a devilish sound was heard, and black Demonic Energy gathered at the spot where the hole of the Spiritual Net was located.
“Quick! Activate the power of the array. The Heavenly Evil Deity is trying to escape!” Maha Tian, Great Nether Ancestor, and the rest shouted in unison when they saw this, and all of their faces turned pale.
Then, several rays of majestic spiritual energy burst out and entered the array. A mottled Exterminate Demon Ancient Spear took shape again, and with a whoosh, it came down from the heavens and shot toward the Spiritual Net.
Roar!
A sharp demonic cry came from under the ground, while Demonic Smoke shot up into the sky. As the Demonic Smoke twirled around, it turned into a huge skull, which clashed against the Exterminate Demon Ancient Spear.
Bang!
There was a loud bang, after which, the area seemed to fall apart. The skull cracked, while the Exterminate Demon Ancient Spear turned transparent. Although it still shot deep into the ground, its effect had been weakened.
“Eh? What is that?” Mu Chen’s face became grave when he saw what had happened.
Suddenly, he saw blood gathering around the crack on the ground. Then, the blood started to flow into the crack. Moreover, a vast Demonic Energy started to exude from the blood.
“This is the Blood Essence of the Extraterritorial Race! Crap! It appears that the top powers of the Evil Spirit Clan carry with them a large amount of the Extraterritorial Race’s Blood Essence!” Maha Tian shouted. “They are offering their blood to the Heavenly Evil Deity in order to help him regain some of his power!”
Upon hearing this, Mu Chen’s face turned grave. He shot downward and opened his mouth. As he did so, purple flames swirled out of his mouth and turned into a sea of fire, which burned up the Blood Essence that had gathered around the crack.
When Mu Chen struck, a pair of terrifying eyes that were deep inside the crack locked their gaze upon him. “I hate the smell of this worm! Get out of my sight, you little worm!” A sharp demonic cry came out from under the ground as a horrifying Demonic Energy swirled out. It then went directly through the void and hit Mu Chen!
Bang!
Mu Chen suffered a serious blow, which sent his body flying backward and caused blood to flow out of the corners of his mouth. He was shocked that he was unable to take the blow from the Demonic Energy, even at the state that he was in!
Hoof.
At that moment, a cold Demonic Wind swirled out and extinguished the purple flames. At the same time, it twirled up to capture the Blood Essence, then brought it into the ground. There seemed to be a huge dark mouth in it that swallowed up all of the Blood Essence in one big gulp!
After the Heavenly Evil Deity swallowed the Blood Essence, the ground of the Northern Wilderness Hill quaked as though it would open up.
“Increase the spiritual energy.! We must not let the Heavenly Evil Deity escape!” Maha Tian shouted.
Suddenly, a huge Demonic Pillar shot up from the spot where the hole of the Spiritual Net was located. Then, an indescribable demonic power raged out from it.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Some of the Paulownia coffins on the square exploded at that moment, and the Heavenly Sovereigns, all of whom were sitting crossed-legged above them, were surrounded by the swirling Demonic Energy. Before they could even scream, their Blood Essence had been sucked away and they had disappeared into thin air.
The Heavenly Sovereigns were shocked to see the Demonic Energy gathered in the Demonic Pillar, as well as a demonic shadow that was looming within it. The demonic shadow stood in the space, and although it was only a shadow, it had caused the sky to darken and its great might covered the entire area. From afar, the demonic shadow looked like the Devil of Destruction!
As a demonic cry resounded in the area, the demonic shadow looked at the huge Great Thousand Exterminate Demon Array and laughed loudly. “Immortal Emperor, your 49,000 years of efforts have been wasted, as I am the one who has won this battle!”
