CHAPTER 1127: CHAPTER 890: PURPLE DRAGON

The attack from the Star Destroyer drove these Demon Kings into a fury, rendering them somewhat irrational. They even considered joining forces to bombard and sink a continent. Anyway, that continent had already been occupied by Earth’s Evolvers, and keeping it was of no use.

However, the Demon Kings who retained their sanity knew that if they recklessly unleashed the Demon King’s Power within the Demon God Realm, they would destroy themselves before the Earth’s Evolvers came, and then the enemy wouldn’t need to do anything but wait at the cross-border point to capture them all.

"Can’t even counterattack, are we Demon Kings just going to sit and wait for death? In a pinch, we could abandon the Demon God Realm, charge into Earth, wipe out those despicable Evolvers, and turn Earth into a second Demon God Realm." A Demon King couldn’t stand this indignation and proposed a fairly decent plan.

"The premise is that we win this battle before we talk about occupying Earth."

A Demon King named Chongming flew over and glanced in the direction of the Star Destroyer, frowning: "You Demon Kings escaped from the other side, so you must know how well-prepared Earth’s invasion of the Demon God Realm is. Against Demon Kings, they don’t even need one-on-one; they can gather five or six to hunt us down."

"Although part of it is catching us off guard, it also shows they’ve far surpassed past times in terms of strong numbers. I heard about last year’s cross-border battle by the Sky Moon Demon King, Golden Feather Demon King, and Silver Tooth Demon King. Honestly, they disappointed me immensely. Despite their absolute advantage, Earth’s Evolvers managed a comeback. If they had crushed Earth back then, there would be no such troubles today."

The expression on Chongming Demon King’s face turned slightly cold, and there were two pupils subtly rotating in his eyes, giving him a very eerie appearance.

"Chongming, saying all that now is pointless. We must quickly think of a countermeasure."

Beside him, a Demon King said calmly: "My current suggestion is to gather all Demon Kings and Great Demons, counterattack, and face these Earth’s Evolvers in an honest cross-border battle. If we win, Earth is ours, and we can rebuild the Demon God Realm; if we lose, naturally, there’s nothing to say."

This proposal immediately received approval from many Demon Kings.

Because it was currently the best approach.

Active strike, desperate gamble—it’s better than waiting for death; if they win, that’s obviously ideal, and if not, dying in battle as Demon Kings would not be in vain.

Chongming Demon King said: "I don’t oppose this proposal, but our counterattack opportunity is only once, so it’s not just us taking action; demons from another continent must join us, too. Only by gathering all Demon Kings and Great Demons from the Demon God Realm together can we have confidence to defeat these Earth’s Evolvers."

"But, to be on the safe side, we need a Demon God to oversee because I’m worried they might have power beyond Demon King Level. If that’s the case, without a Demon God on our side, it would result in heavy casualties."

"I heard Qing Jiao Demon King has gone to seek a Demon God." A Demon King revealed critical information at this moment.

Chongming Demon King immediately said: "Since that’s the case, then wait another day. First, send two Demon Kings to contact the other continent to agree on an attacking time. If the Demon God hasn’t appeared, we must counterattack regardless."

"Everyone, hold on for just one more day. The opponent’s attack at any one time is only tenfold. With our Demon King’s Combat Power, rotating defense should be manageable for a day."

With a feasible yet rough plan in place, all the Demon Kings agreed to this approach.

So wait another day.

After one day, launch a full-scale counterattack. Whether the Demon God appears or not, they were determined.

Although one day seemed short, the Star Destroyer kept firing, and Earth’s upper echelons’ goal remained simple—persistently aiming to sink those two continents.

Even if they couldn’t achieve it, they could provoke the Demon Kings into attacking, reducing their numbers. Even if Demon Kings blocked the Star Destroyer’s attacks, it would be a considerable drain, aiding continued battles later.

"These Demon Kings can really endure. They choose defense instead of a counterattack, which is entirely unlike their nature. They must be secretly planning something."

"Should we cross the ocean and attack directly? This standoff isn’t beneficial for us."

"No, our strong numbers are not abundant, having just undergone a major battle. We need rest; at least let the Star Destroyer bombard for three more days to weaken the Demon Kings before crossing the sea. It’s still too aggressive now."

"Exactly, we’ve captured this continent; we should adopt a more relaxed strategy, avoid reckless actions. If we fail, it’s okay for us old folks to die, but what about Earth behind us?"

Currently, in the command ship, Earth’s upper echelons decided after discussions to maintain status quo for at least three days.

Three days later, if the Demon Kings still didn’t counterattack, they would decide to actively strike.

Both sides had their own thoughts and plans.

"Sure enough, the Star Destroyer didn’t achieve as effective results as imagined. The Demon Kings intercept perfectly, even if one or two attacks aren’t stopped, they hardly deliver a devastating blow to any one continent."

Li Yi had been sitting in the center all along, like a great general, hardly taking action, and always accompanied by the Eastern Pole Venerable.

Only with the two working together can they handle any potential changes.

"It seems there’s a change in the cosmic mechanism." Suddenly, at this moment, the Eastern Pole Venerable looked in a direction and slightly frowned.

As an Enlightened, he perceives heaven and earth, most sensitive to changes.

Li Yi, though not an Enlightened, but a One God, also detected an extraordinary aura emerging in this realm—a Demon Qi... but it’s different from a Demon King’s aura.

The aura carried a mighty power akin to that of a Divine being.

Li Yi’s gaze also grew grave: "It’s that ocean; it seems that something incredible has awakened within it, and its aura is getting stronger. This is definitely not an existence of the Demon King Level."

"A Demon God, perhaps?" the Eastern Pole Venerable said calmly: "It seems our previous speculations were correct; this world indeed has Demon Gods, though it’s unclear why their aura is only now manifesting."

"It doesn’t matter when the Demon God appears; what’s important is whether we can join forces against them," Li Yi stated. Although he hadn’t fought a Demon God before, with the enhancement of the Power of Incense, he might have the strength for a battle.

Soon.

The aura of the Demon God grew more intense, so much so that even the Cultivators of Great Perfection and the several Martial Saints could sense the changes in the heavens and earth, and even the energy monitors on Earth sounded the alarm.

At this time, the ocean in the Demon God Realm was tilting, with giant waves appearing out of nowhere. Furthermore, the heavens and earth trembled slightly, and the aura surpassing the Demon King had already stirred thousands of miles of nature’s spiritual energy.

In the next moment.

A deafening dragon’s roar echoed throughout the Demon God Realm. Then, from within the surging sea, a True Dragon with a deep purple body burst forth, shrouding the heavens. Boundless spiritual energy poured in from all directions, constantly washing over the True Dragon’s body.

The pervasive dragon might flooded everywhere, causing countless Great Demons to tremble. Even the Demon Kings felt a tinge of dread under this aura.

"A True Dragon?"

Upon detecting this scene, the intelligent satellites in space relayed it to the Earth command ships, and all high-ranked officials couldn’t help but widen their eyes in shock.

Little did they expect that this ocean in the Demon God Realm hid the mythical True Dragon.

"It’s not just a True Dragon; there’s a high possibility it’s a Demon God, and now we’re in deep trouble." Zhao Yongshan’s expression was particularly solemn. Despite having contingency plans, witnessing a Demon God’s emergence was nonetheless unsettling.

This level of existence could truly destroy a world; if they couldn’t counter this Demon God, then the interdimensional war would be meaningless.

The roar of the Purple Dragon Demon God resonated across the Demon God Realm, instilling fear in the Demon Kings and terror in the Great Demons. But as they snapped back to their senses, they erupted in massive cheers.

"It’s the Purple Dragon Demon God; he’s emerged. It seems the Qing Jiao Demon King succeeded in awakening a Demon God."

"Fantastic, with a Demon God, this battle is as good as won."

"Let’s counterattack now; have all the Great Demons ready."

Their spirits lifted, seeing the Demon God manifest assured them of victory in the upcoming battle. Therefore, the Demon Kings immediately issued the Demon King Order, assembling all the Great Demons to strike ahead of time, eager to avenge their prior humiliation.

"The Demon Kings and Great Demons are flying across the sea towards us," Earth’s high command quickly received this message and relayed it to everyone.

Upon hearing the news, everyone remained calm and unsurprised.

An offensive from the Demon God Realm was expected.

"The Demon Kings are arriving quickly; all prepare to engage. Lan Ji, open the Cross-border Gate, and channel the incense," Li Yi promptly prepared, opening the Cross-border Gate in advance to enhance himself with the Power of Incense.

The Demon God’s roar still echoed.

The purple True Dragon traversed the sky, its massive body obscuring the sun, with fierce winds howling where it passed, cloud seas gathering. Even before acting, the Demon God’s presence was unmistakable.

The Purple Dragon Demon God’s large dragon eyes fixed on the Star Destroyers, then opened its mouth and emitted a purple Divine Light that tore through the vacuum, ignoring the spatial distance to strike the high-altitude Star Destroyers directly.

Explosions echoed violently.

All twenty Star Destroyers were annihilated by this strike.

Faced with this situation, Earth’s higher-ups felt a pang but were prepared for such losses, relieved that no personnel were aboard, as everything was controlled by intelligent systems, ensuring no casualties.

"The Demon God’s attack is indeed terrifying."

However, Li Yi witnessed this strike, gaining a rough understanding of the Demon God’s power through the event.

This time-space-shattering attack was indefensible. Being targeted by such a formidable entity was a nightmare.

However, at this moment, Li Yi was enveloped by the Power of Incense, and his initially formidable aura continuously escalated.
