Chapter 1329: Ambush (1)
“Good… Looks like everything is going according to plan. Hehe, I would like to see how that old man from the Blue Sea Empire escapes this time around!”
In some unknown location inside the Frozen Wasteland, the Blood Lotus Demon King was happily smiling to himself as he received the message from the demonic cultivator currently at the location of the former Sky Empire’s capital city and the location of one of the three demonic formations.
Whoosh~!
At this time, two different figures appeared beside the Blood Lotus Demon King, each carrying a terrifying presence no less powerful than the blood Lotus Demon King himself.
“Are you sure that this will work? Killing someone in the Celestial Immortal Realm isn’t that simple! Those three formations of yours will at most be able to buy us a few minutes of time before the other ancestors of the Blue Sea Empire can join in!”
“Indeed, even with three of us here, it’s impossible to take down that ancestor at the Celestial Immortal Realm in such a short period of time. After all, he is bound to have countless lifesaving treasures and artifacts on him.
Not to mention killing him, I feel that doing this will only expose our plans to escalate this battle to the Celestial Immortal Realm.”
Following their arrival, it didn’t take long before both of them expressed their worries to the Blood Lotus Demon King about the assault they were about to engage in against one of the Blue Sea Empire’s ancestors. Clearly not feeling confident that they would have the ability to kill him in the short time that the three formations would be able to buy them.
“Hmph! Both of you are worrying over nothing! The goal of those three formations is not to block the people from the Blue Sea Empire, but instead to launch an ambush on the ancestors at the borders of our Frozen Wasteland.”
“This… Are you sure those three formations will have the ability to do anything to that ancestor? After all, it is at most fueled by the blood and soul of a few insects?”
“Yes, this is a task personally given to us by the Great Demon King, the formations themselves also contain part of his blood and will thus be further enhanced in strength. All we have to do is provide a proper distraction, so he won’t notice those formations activating behind him before its too late.”
“A task from the Great Demon King… I understand!”
“If it’s the command of the Great Demon King, I will help out as well. After all, I don’t plan on being turned into a blood pellet by that ruthless fellow…”
Hearing that the task was one that had been personally issued by the Great Demon King himself, the current ruler of the Frozen Wasteland, the two Demon Kings who had been hesitating beforehand quickly agreed. Showing just how fearsome the reputation of the Great Demon King was to these other demon kings.
“Good, we will be moving out immediately! Although the formations haven’t been spotted yet, we can’t take any risks. After all, they can only stay concealed for so long.”
Whoosh~
Seeing this, the Blood Lotus Demon King smiled menacingly in the direction of the Onyx Empire as he said this before disappearing.
“”…””
Whoosh-!
Whoosh-!
Looking at each other for a short moment following the disappearance of the Blood Lotus Demon King, the other two Demon Kings didn’t waste too much time, as they soon followed after him in the direction of the Onyx Empire where one of the Blue Sea Empire’s ancestors in the Celestial Immortal Realm was currently staying.
Both of them understood that after today, the war between the demonic cultivators and the rest of the cultivators not set on the demonic path would escalate to the point of no return and herald the beginning of another war for superiority.
If the demonic cultivators won, demonic cultivation would become the norm and reign supreme on the Ewaria Continent and if demonic cultivators lost, they would be faced with a far worse suppression than the last time they had engaged in such a massive battle with the rest of the cultivators on the Ewaria Continent.
Although it was impossible to erase demonic cultivation given how there would always be people willing to do everything in their power to increase their own strength, it would definitely end up far worse than it was at the moment where they at least had some places on the continent that fell under the control of the demonic cultivators.
As for the stronger demonic cultivators who participated in the battle, they would almost definitely end up being hunted down and killed by the powerful cultivators of the powers located in the core of the continent.
…
Hm? Why do I suddenly feel so uneasy all of a sudden? Could it be that the demonic cultivators are planning to launch another attack on the Onyx Empire? But with me here, would they dare to do something like that?
As the three demonic cultivators in the Demon King Realm made their way towards the Onyx Empire, the ancestor from the Blue Sea Empire, who had decided to remain at the border of the Onyx Empire to kill off any demonic cultivator trying to cross in a way to honor the death of his family member, suddenly felt a shiver run down his spine. Forcing him out of his current meditative state, as his terrifying divine sense swept out in the direction of the Frozen Wasteland.
“Hm?! Three Demon Kings!?”
Just as he did this, he almost instantly noticed the three Demon King Realm demonic cultivators rushing directly towards him.
Not good, could they be planning to force their way through and try to sneak into the Blue Sea Empire!?
Seeing this, the ancestor didn’t even think that they were targeting him, as he thought that they were just planning to try and rush past him to enter the interior of the Blue Sea Empire and cause damage from the inside.
I have to inform the rest about the situation and have them guard the borders!
With this in mind, the ancestor quickly took out his communication talisman before contacting the rest of the ancestors about the situation. Wanting them to quickly get to the borders and prevent the demonic cultivators from sneaking inside-
RUUUMBLE-!
However, just as he finished doing this, he suddenly felt the combined power of the three Demon Kings locking on to him.
“Hehe, you should be paying attention to us old man!”
“This… YOU WANT TO TARGET ME!? HMPH!”
Feeling the terrifying power locking on to him, the ancestor from the Blue Sea Empire wasn’t the slightest bit terrified. Instead, he felt more offended than anything else, as he understood full well that there would be no reason for them to target him unless they thought they could kill.
Essentially meaning that they viewed him as an easy target that could be finished off in the short time it would take for the rest of the ancestors from the Blue Sea Empire to show up and lend a hand.
“You need more than this if you three want to kill me!”
Showing a fearless demeanor worthy of someone in the Celestial Immortal Realm, the old ancestor from the Blue Sea Empire faced the attack of the three Demon Kings head on-
BOOOM-!
And the next second, the terrifying attack reached its target, causing everything within a hundred kilometers of the Blue Sea Empire Ancestor to get vaporized. Killing any cultivator or mortal unfortunate enough to get caught within the powerful attack.
The only ones capable of surviving were a few Dao Seed Realm cultivators who had been lucky enough to have been informed of the attack by the ancestor from the Blue Sea Empire. Barely giving them enough time to use a teleportation talisman or another kind of lifesaving treasure to get out of the way in time.
Of course, there were also some unfortunate ones that had been too slow to react and had been caught in the attack. Dying almost instantaneously without any way to resist the remnant power of a clash between three Demon Kings and a Celestial Immortal.
In the end, by the time that the dust settled. Nothing was left alive around the four powerful cultivators-
Boom! Boom! Boom!
However, the quiet moment didn’t last for long, as the four soon began violently fighting with each other in the air above the Onyx Empire. Sending shockwaves through the entire empire, some of which managed to cross all the way to the territory of the Star Shattering Sect.
Although the power had significantly weakened at this point in time and could be stopped by someone in the Domain Lord Realm, it still ended up destroying over a dozen cultivation families and even cut through a recently constructed branch of the Star Shattering Sect. Killing a dozen elders and over a hundred disciples before they had a chance to react.
