Chapter 166: Chapter 168 Demon Lord Descends

Xiao Hong was carrying several people and flying desperately, using up every ounce of strength she could muster.

"Living people, run fast, living people run fast." Mu Can, holding onto the old man on Xiao Hong’s back, was clapping his hands forcefully while crying and shouting.

Boom!

Just as they flew out of the range of Mingyang City, an enormous blast sounded from behind.

Mu Can turned his head, only to feel a sudden chill enveloping his whole body.

Behind him, Mingyang City had turned into ruins, a torrent of blood rose boiling from within the city, surging up to the sky.

A sea of blood, Mingyang City had vanished from everyone’s sight, replaced by a thick, undissolvable blood light.

"Blood sacrifice," Purple Cloud said gravely, looking in the direction of Mingyang City.

She had just scanned the Man Grasslands and not a single barbarian was seen on the entire grassland; the place where barbarians once lived was also the site of a huge Demon Summoning Array, and all the barbarians had their heads cut off without exception.

Mu Can clenched his fists tightly as he looked in the direction of Mingyang City, where nearly 300,000 of his compatriots were buried, without a single body left behind.

Purple Cloud also felt a bout of fear; such a high-level Demon Summoning Array required to cross into the Mortal World could only be handled by someone at least of the Demon Venerable Level.

If Mu Can had still been there, even if protected by the Reincarnation Pearl, he would have been seriously injured or even killed, not to forget that Mu Can has not yet fully mastered the Reincarnation Pearl.

The changes continued, and through the overwhelming blood light, a massive figure appeared where Mingyang City once stood.

"Everyone must die, everyone must die," the crazed old man said in pain as he looked towards Mingyang City, his aged face covered in tears.

"A Martial Saint?" Purple Cloud eyed the crazed old man, finding his strength peculiar as if greatly shook something that clouded his sanity.

"Dad, a big guy is coming," Ben Ben’s voice trembled nervously.

Seeing this, Mu Can also realized that the approaching entity was definitely a formidable one, at least someone on par with Purple Cloud.

"Can we kill him?"

What exactly had happened in the Mortal World, why had the Demon World so brazenly invaded, where were the hidden masters of the Mortal World, and what exactly had frightened this senseless Martial Saint so deeply?

"This is a big guy," Mu Can stared intently at the massive figure shrouded in the bloody light, as if facing a great enemy.

As they speculated, the scene changed again, as the blood light slowly dispersed, revealing a massive figure in front of everyone.

It was a Demon Clan member with three heads, the large head in the middle adorned with a long sharp horn, and carrying a pair of wings flickering with silver light, with lightning dancing upon them, looking extraordinarily mystical.

"Hahaha, finally arrived. The aura of the Mortal World is so wonderful."

The massive figure took a deep breath, and delight was evident on all three faces.

The next moment, dark clouds covered the sky, and it gradually darkened.

Dark clouds pressed down on the city, a huge pressure descending from the sky, the will of the Mortal World sensing this intruder that did not belong.

The Demon Lord had crossed through the Demon Summoning Array, and the sacrifice of 300,000 people was enough to summon the most powerful Heavenly Tribulation.

A massive Tribulation Cloud gathered, brimming with terrifying energy.

The Demon Lord stopped his laughter, his face vigilant as he gazed at the Tribulation Clouds in the sky, his intuition telling him that if the Heavenly Tribulation descended from there, it would surely be devastating.

Within them was energy that even he felt terrified of.

"Heavenly Tribulation is coming." Purple Cloud looked at the faintly blood-red Tribulation Clouds in the sky, her beautiful face full of shock.

She had never seen Tribulation Clouds formed by Heavenly Tribulation emit such intense energy fluctuations.

"This guy is in for trouble, daring to use the forbidden Demon Summoning Array, he really is bold." Purple Cloud smacked her lips, the terrifying Heavenly Tribulation, even if he could survive it, would likely cause him to fall from his venerable status.

"Can we kill him?" Mu Can was full of killing intent, desiring revenge for the blood sacrifice of 300,000 kinsmen.

Mu Zi Ang was also full of killing aura; it seemed the arrival of the Demon Lord ignited their fury.

"Not now, but if he doesn’t die after the Heavenly Tribulation, we can try."

Even dozens of miles away from the center of the Heavenly Tribulation, Mu Can felt an oppressive sensation that made it difficult to breathe, let alone near the center.

"Come on, since I’ve made it here, I am not afraid of you. Sooner or later, the entire Demon Clan will descend here, and then we’ll see how long the will of the Mortal World can hold."

The entire Demon Clan descending, what exactly happened in the Demon World that all the experts of the Demon Clan chose to risk descending to the Mortal World.

Arriving in the Mortal World through the Demon Summoning Array, one can only choose to transcend tribulation.

The Demon Lord knew there were no precedents of Heavenly Tribulation brewing without striking, he could only resist forcefully, either succeed in transcending the tribulation or turn into ashes.

"If he is severely wounded under the Heavenly Tribulation, we strike at his weakest, if he manages to transcend successfully, you hurl the Reincarnation Pearl at him." Purple Cloud said indifferently.

In any case, the Demon Lord must not be spared, such high-level experts, even in the Demon World, are definitely not abundant.

A thunderbolt as thick as a house fiercely struck down, hitting the Demon Lord, who was as large as a city, causing his hair to stand on end as all three of his heads emitted a painful wail.

This was how he toughed out the first Heavenly Thunderbolt.

"How terrifying, Sister Yun, is this the strength of a venerable one?"

If the thunderbolt just now had struck Mu Can, he would have turned into ashes by now.

Purple Cloud nodded, then continued watching. The Heavenly Thunderbolts descending with the will of the Mortal World totaled nine bolts, each more powerful than the last.

"Is this all you’ve got? Hahaha, you still can’t kill me, wait until we transform the Mortal World into a second Demon World, even if you are the will of the Mortal World you won’t escape."

As if enraged by the Demon Lord’s words, five consecutive thunderbolts fiercely struck down, hammering the standing Demon Lord into the ground, his upper body a bloody mess, yet still capable of resistance.

The fifth thunderbolt was as thick as a mountain, completely engulfing the Demon Lord within.

Purple Cloud, along with Mu Can and others, had to retreat another thirty miles, looking from afar at the Demon Lord who still stood unyieldingly.

"Demonic Qi fills the sky."

Above the ruins of Mingyang City, 300,000 headless corpses turned into blood mists, transforming into rolling Demonic Qi entering into the Demon Lord’s body, the Demonic Qi obscuring the sky as if the apocalypse had arrived.

Once all the Demonic Qi entered his body, the Demon Lord regained his prior state before transcending the tribulation.

"He must die." Purple Cloud’s eyes turned cold. Just now, about 300,000 aggrieved souls were absorbed into the Demon Lord’s body, not only restoring his original strength but even slightly improving.

"They all must die, everyone must die." The crazed old man covered his eyes with one hand, painfully howling repeatedly.
