Chapter 200: The King Who Alarmed the Terrifying World

"Pfft!!"

The Void Demons watched helplessly as the powerful Void Demons of over a dozen hegemon-level forces in that direction were instantly crushed, exploding into blood mist, body and spirit both destroyed, unable to break free no matter how hard they struggled.

"What kind of monster is that?!"

The Void Demons who witnessed the terrifying scene were all filled with panic, their entire bodies soaked in cold sweat.

Such a powerful being—who could possibly withstand it?

Boom!!

The giant claw probed down once more, and no one could resist. The Void Demons of the various major forces in that region all shattered in midair. As it swept through, the Void Demons were struck as if by an eternal great mountain, smashed into blood mush.

"Ao!!!"

The heaven-piercing roar carried cruel ferocity; baleful qi surged like raging waves, as if an ancient great evil had torn through the void, broken free of its cage, and come roaring out.

It came from atop the giant claw, where one could faintly see a young child sitting on it—the earth-shattering roar that split the eight wildernesses was let out by her.

It was unimaginable that a child could let out such a roar.

Could it really be the offspring of an ancient ferocious species?

Clearly visible, massive black fissures spread like terrifying waves. This was a terrifying roar, its ferocious might surging to the heavens, shaking the firmament, shattering the void, splitting souls. Countless Void Demons perished in this roar.

One after another, Void Demon corpses fell from the sky, exploding within the terrifying roar.

"A child?"

The Void Demons discovered the source of the sound and were scared into stunned stupor. Though the child looked young, with chubby red cheeks like a baby's, no one dared to step forward to meet her edge. Roar after roar swept through, shaking ten thousand li, scouring the entire area.

"Do you truly think our Void Demons have no one left!!"

A single thunderous shout.

It rang through the eight wildernesses and ten directions.

From a distant direction, rolling black fog surged in like lava, covering the distant earth, spreading up into the nine heavens. Within it, terrifying auras surged, as dreadful as a divine mountain collapsing.

Just then, a great hand-print, brimming with demonic might, emerged from the lava-black fog, spanning thirty thousand li, and pressed down toward the child. It blotted out the sky and sun, like an ancient demonic mountain crashing down, instantly crushing and collapsing this stretch of heavens.

"Ah!!"

Many of the surging beings were annihilated along with the great hand, dying unnatural deaths, their screams rising one after another. Quite a few beings shot up into the sky, trying to escape the great hand's range, but still could not evade it.

The demonic-might great hand was simply too vast.

As that great hand pressed across, those beings were like paper paste, all torn apart—some exploding, some bursting apart, all reduced to pools of blood mush.

Boom!!!

Another deafening, ear-shattering great sound,

Like the birth and destruction of stars, like the setting and rising of the sun. In another region near the Sacrificial Domain, light and darkness flickered uncertainly, all manner of blood-light surged wildly, profound and repetitive.

That vast region seemed to surge forth with a tremendous aura, so terrifying it affected the radiance of that land—as if all light would be stirred into motion. In anger, light would be extinguished; in joy, light would be restored.

This scene was utterly terrifying.

There was absolutely an existence no weaker than the demonic hand that had appeared.

The vast aura surged, rushing toward this stretch of hundred-thousand-li earth, its killing intent locked onto the giant claw and the child—frosty and merciless.

"Demon Lord!!"

"Void Lord!!"

The Void Demons were both delighted and trembling. The ones who struck were ancient hegemon-level figures of the Void Demon Realm—beings who had stood at the very peak of the Void Demon Realm even before the Sacrificial Lord had grown up: the Demon Lord of the Demonic God Palace and the Void Lord of the Void King Palace.

The Demon Lord and the Void Lord struck together, plunging into the surging black clouds that covered who knew how many li.

The black clouds boiled; blood-light and lava-mist churned within.

At this moment.

The heavens were like a scroll, violently trembling and rumbling, as if they might be torn apart and destroyed at any moment.

At the center of the Sacrificial Domain, where the Void Demon Palace stood, a great fog had now risen, and endless terrifying beings continued to emerge from within.

As more and more beings appeared, the great battle in the heavens grew ever more intense.

The various great hegemon-level forces of the Void Demon Realm all joined the fight—no one could stand idly by. They led their respective Void Demon armies to charge in and wage a great war against the terrifying beings.

The battle line instantly stretched from thirty thousand li to a hundred thousand li, covering the entire Sacrificial Domain.

A hundred-thousand-li terrifying great battle—who knew how many would die.

"Many terrifying beings have appeared in the Sacrificial Domain. They crossed over through an otherworldly passage that the Sacrificial Lord had nearly opened before his death. It's too dreadful—blood already flows like rivers there."

Some commoner Void Demons fled out of the Sacrificial Domain, speaking to uninformed Void Demons in utter terror, but not daring to speak too loudly, fearing that if this news spread it would cause great panic and bring punishment from the hegemon-level forces.

However, one told ten, ten told a hundred. Even though he had only told one person, the news still spread rapidly.

The commotion stirred up in the Sacrificial Domain was simply too great; even if one wanted to conceal it, it could not be hidden—learning of it was only a matter of time.

"Heavens, just how many terrifying otherworlds did the Sacrificial Lord secretly open in his lifetime? Opening the world of the Creator Ancestor wasn't enough—he even opened a world with an absolute great evil. Are we Void Demons doomed?"

"Actually, the Sacrificial Lord didn't fully open that great-evil world, only halfway. But last time, when the terror from the Creator Ancestor's world descended and slew the Sacrificial Lord, the commotion seemed to alert the terror of that great-evil world. It awoke from slumber, and those on that side groped their way to find the passage and opened the remaining half."

"That world has beings more terrifying than ours, beings more powerful than the Sacrificial Lord. We're done for, the Void Demon Realm."

The news spread one after another.

In just a few short days, it spread throughout the Void Demon Realm. The Void Demons were terrified—a terrifying world invading the Void Demon Realm?! The cause was the battle between the Sacrificial Lord and the great terror of the Creator Ancestor's world, which alarmed the king of that terrifying world?

Moreover, those kings coveted powerful strength and wanted to conquer the Void Demon Realm and claim it for themselves.

The so-called news spread like wildfire, overwhelming everything.

The Void Demon Realm shook violently; everyone felt themselves in danger. They had never imagined that they, who once only knew how to invade other worlds, would one day face invasion themselves.

Every day, the battle situation in the Sacrificial Domain became the Void Demons' most pressing concern.

Some bold Void Demons would head to the edges of the Sacrificial Domain to scout the situation, then bring news back. Others would use various channels to find Void Demons of the hegemon-level forces to inquire and obtain the latest information.

When news was brought back, a group of Void Demons would inevitably gather around, just like today.

"How is it? How is the Sacrificial Domain? Are there any signs of retreat from the beings of that world?" a Void Demon asked, eyes filled with urgency.

The Void Demon who had returned from the edge of the Sacrificial Domain shook his head.

"Withdraw troops? Sigh, today another great battle erupted in the Sacrificial Domain. It wasn't us who took the offensive — it was that world that attacked first. If it weren't for several great overlords going mad with power at the end, counterattacking without regard for cost, I'm afraid this time it wouldn't have been confined to the Sacrificial Domain — the front lines would have spilled out of the Sacrificial Domain and spread to the surrounding domains.

The Void Demon sighed as he spoke, his face full of worry.

"The attack was held back, but… it was too tragic. Over a hundred thousand died — beings from that side and from ours. The Luo Demon Palace suffered the worst losses; more than half of the forces they committed were killed. Even the Vice Palace Master, whose strength was infinitely close to the Luo Master, died in this great battle."
