Chapter 1169

Yunluo Shèngzhǔ couldn't be bothered to waste words with these two demon emperors.

As food material, what surrender are you talking about? Just stay put and be at ease—right now your demon race is absolutely safe, and even if someone wanted to mess with you, we wouldn't allow it.

Ignoring the two demon emperors' angry shouts, Yunluo Shèngzhǔ directly had them driven out.

Not even surrender was an option; the two demon emperors were furious beyond measure, yet had no recourse, and in the end could only leave filled with resentment.

The so-called United Hall's construction was proceeding in full swing.

All major races and sects joined in; at first it was merely the patriarchs of each race.

Gradually, the big and small forces of the other races also joined in, as did the various human sects, dynasties, and so on.

In a short time, outside the Myriad Demons Pass, a magnificent 'city' rose up bit by bit.

Though called a city, it's truly outrageous—looking out, hall after hall, teleportation array after teleportation array stretch as far as the eye can see.

The only difference from a regular city is that this unusual city has no walls.

Moreover, speaking bluntly, here Shèngjìng are as common as dogs, Great Saints walk everywhere, and while not saying Great Emperor ancestors are a dime a dozen, they're certainly not rare either.

Thus walls are completely unnecessary.

Standing atop the Myriad Demons Pass, Qi Xiong, Hong Zun, and Ye Zhangqing also came to join the fun.

Looking at the sprawling complex of buildings, Ye Zhangqing couldn't help but sigh.

This must be practically all the major forces of Zhongzhou coming together.

Any force that can name itself has joined this so-called United Hall.

Nowadays, if you don't have a hall outside the Myriad Demons Pass, you'd be embarrassed to call yourself a major force.

Qi Xiong watched, grinding his teeth, these damned things— their scale keeps getting bigger and bigger; have you even asked me, this Shèngzhǔ?

The United Hall affair made Qi Xiong extremely displeased, and on top of that, the demon race food material has recently run into problems.

The five demon caves still exist, but the demon realm has become increasingly outrageous—already several days have passed with no demon race food material showing up.

Before, using some means, one could occasionally obtain some demon race food material to tide over.

But this has already lasted over half a month, with not a single demon race food material arriving.

Who knows what's happened over there in the demon realm—not even a stray fish has shown up.

But the human side also can't get over there, so we can only anxiously wait.

Now the demon race food material has been completely exhausted; Qi Xiong, thinking of its taste, can only reminisce.

"Damn it, nothing is going smoothly."

With a cold snort, Qi Xiong turned and left; seeing this, Ye Zhangqing and the others were no longer surprised.

This guy has long wanted to eat demon race food material, but there's none, and there's nothing to be done.

Before, Qi Xiong personally went to a demon cave, but came away empty-handed; these demons seem to have vanished completely, and even using tricks is useless.

Right now, the human side's food sources are quite limited—no demon race food material, let alone immortal spirit food material, which is out of the question.

Only the demon race and savage beasts remain, but the taste of neither can compare to demon race food material.

"What do you say happened to the demon race? Before, although their numbers were few, it wasn't to the point of having none at all."

"Who knows."

After Qi Xiong left, everyone began to discuss curiously, and Hong Zun turned to Ye Zhangqing and said:

"Youngster Zhangqing, why not upgrade that bait again?"

"It's already been upgraded three times, and it still hasn't worked."

At first we thought it was the bait's problem—maybe the demon race has developed resistance, and its attraction isn't as strong as before.

Ye Zhangqing also made an upgrade, but it still didn't work—these demons simply won't take the bait.

Upon hearing Hong Zun suggest another bait upgrade, Ye Zhangqing shook his head.

It's not the bait's problem; most likely something has changed on the demon race's side.

Hearing that, Hong Zun and the others also felt helpless—another day of missing demon race food material.

At Fàn diǎn that evening, not to mention Qi Xiong and his group—even Yunluo Shèngzhǔ and Yaochi Shèngzhǔ couldn't help but sigh.

"Demon race food material again."

"What, you won't eat it?"

"Get lost."

"Then you're just talking nonsense."

"I just want a change of flavor."

"Don't even think about it—there's no movement from the demon realm."

Even Yunluo Shèngzhǔ and the others started missing the taste of demon race food material—having gone so long without it, they're getting hungrier and hungrier.

The human side longs for the demon race immensely; if we could get over there, we would have already stormed into the demon realm.

Meanwhile, within the demon race, a major change has indeed occurred.

The area of the demon realm is no smaller than that of the Haotu Shijie.

Moreover, the demon race had long unified the demon realm; unlike humans, the demon race exterminated all other races.

The demon realm now contains only the demon race as its sole species.

Their strength can be described as extremely formidable.

But precisely because of that, factions abound within the demon race; simply put, the demon race is divided into eight major factions.

Each faction is led by a demon emperor.

At this moment, the sudden fall of the Jialuo Demon Emperor threw its faction into rapid chaos.

Under its command, the myriad demon gods fought incessantly, and the territory of the Jialuo Demon Emperor had long since devolved into a chaotic mess.

And this faction of the Jialuo Demon Emperor is precisely the demon race that previously attacked the Haotu Shijie.

Therefore, from beginning to end, what Haotu Shijie faces is not the entire Demon Realm, but merely one of the eight Great Demon Emperors.

It is precisely because of the fall of the Jie Luo Demon Emperor that the demon side is completely unable to attend to matters concerning Haotu Shijie.

This directly cut off Haotu Shijie's food supply.

Moreover, the struggle for the Demon Emperor's position has become increasingly fierce; the several greatest demon gods who were originally under the command of the Jie Luo Demon Emperor have now reached the final stage of their competition.

In the Demon Realm, the territory of the Jie Luo Demon Emperor, originally the Demon Emperor's traveling palace, at this moment three terrifying-aura demon gods stand before the Demon Emperor's palace.

With icy expressions, they gaze at the tightly shut gates of the Demon Emperor's palace.

"This Bo Xun has monopolized the Demon Emperor's palace all along; today we will first join forces to kill him."

"Okay."

"Let's move."

These three demon gods have cultivations at the Demon God Great Perfection; according to Haotu Shijie's cultivation divisions, that is the Great Emperor Realm Perfection.

They are the strongest beings under the Demon Emperor.

Therefore, with the fall of the Jie Luo Demon Emperor, they three naturally become the existences most likely to ascend to the Demon Emperor's throne.

However, since the era of the Jia Lan Demon Emperor, Bo Xun Demon God has occupied the Demon Emperor's palace, closing its doors and not emerging.

And this Bo Xun was the right and left hand of the former Jie Luo Demon Emperor, his strength still above that of the three demon gods.

He can be called the number one strong one under the Jie Luo Demon Emperor's command, his strength only half a step away from that of a Demon Emperor.

He has always followed beside the Jie Luo Demon Emperor, deeply valued by him.

However, the Jie Luo Demon Emperor is now dead, so the other demon gods naturally would not allow Bo Xun to continue occupying the Demon Emperor's palace.

Today they have joined forces to come, in order to slay Bo Xun, seize this Demon Emperor's palace, and completely eradicate this greatest obstacle.
