Chapter 718: Chapter 680: Tearing Off the Mask!_1

"Lei Ying!"

"Lei Fan!"

The Unicorn Demon God’s eyes, filled with a chilling intent, seemed almost to freeze the void.

"Sssss!"

Many strands of Frosty Divine Light appeared naturally, infused with the Extreme Cold Tao, seemingly aiming to seal off the flesh and bones of the two strongest members of the Thunder Clan.

The Unicorn had instantly determined that it was these two top members of the Thunder Clan who had revealed their dealings with Hemo Tian.

"Do you know what kind of disaster this will bring upon your Thunder Clan?"

Stripping away its facade of hypocrisy, the Unicorn did not attempt to disguise the threatening words in its speech, coldly saying, "The Thunder Clan will have no future, and because of your two wrong decisions, many of your clan members will die."

"It’s happening now!"

It raised its head and let out a piercing roar.

As the leader of the Demon Race within Thunder Prison, its roar was the supreme decree in this world for many loyal to it, to the Vermilion Bird and the Giant Serpents, and the Demon Kings and Great Demons began to act immediately upon hearing it.

The First Realm, The Second Realm, The Third Realm!

In the three great worlds of Thunder Prison, within different heavens and earths, the gigantic bodies of powerful Demon Kings were revealed.

Long dissatisfied with the Thunder Clan’s rule, and intent on swallowing their territories, the powerful members of the Demon Race surged toward the lands dominated by the Thunder Clan.

Silver Rhino King, Green Phoenix King, Blazing Kylin, Blood Python, Divine Eagle King, Ice Carp.

These ninth-level Demon Kings, leading their Great Demons, directly invaded the Thunder Clan’s territories.

Ever since a Thunder God had appeared, the Thunder Clan had firmly held the dominion over Thunder Prison, and even with the rise of the Lei Meng Beast God, this had not shaken the Thunder Clan’s tyrannical status in this realm.

Today, the Thunder Clan’s dominance over this realm will become history forever!

The Demon Race will be the true masters of Thunder Prison, and the three Great Demon Gods will be the revered entities of all beings here!

When the Unicorn roared, many Demon Kings thunderously responded, surging toward the Thunder Clan’s lands. Lei Fan and Lei Ying then understood that the three Great Demon Gods had been planning this all along.

Regardless of whether Pang Jian arrived, the Thunder Clan’s position as the overlord of this world was destined to be overturned by the combined efforts of the three Great Demon Gods.

All because, after the fall of Thunder God, the gods worshiped by the Ghost Clan and the Demon Clan had been oppressing and suppressing the Thunder Clan relentlessly.

The Thunder Clan would no longer give birth to another Thunder God.

Without a high-level Thunder God to awe the heavens, the Thunder Clan’s future against gods like Zimo and Hemo Tian would only grow bleaker.

"Lei Fan, do you see? They were planning this all along! No matter how you compromise, in your attempt to please Hemo Tian and follow him, they would still wield the slaughter knife against the Thunder Clan!"

Lei Ying exclaimed with heartfelt pain, "Running away is useless, and relentless tolerance will only make them more aggressive!"

Lei Fan nodded slightly, his last bit of illusion shattered by the actions of the three Great Demon Gods.

When Lei Ying, bringing Li Yuqing with her, came to him stating they wanted to join hands with Pang Jian to deal with the three Great Demon Gods, he flatly refused.

He also sternly warned her not to reveal a word to Pang Jian about the communication between the Unicorn and Hemo Tian.

Lei Fan’s reason was that this could prevent conflict, and avoid the death of many of their people.

But now, with the Unicorn’s roar and the enthusiastic response of many Demon Kings to the invasion of the Thunder Clan’s territory, he realized that the Demon Race had not just been contemplating an attack on the Thunder Clan for a day or two.

They had not only plotted for a long time, but were also always waiting.

Just waiting for this command from the Unicorn!

Once Lei Fan understood this, he closed his eyes and communicated with several important cities through his bloodline’s secret skill. He saw countless powerful members of the Demon Race appearing at the strongholds where the Thunder Clan’s warriors had gathered.

Along the way, the Demon Kings and Great Demons wreaked slaughter, and many of the Thunder Clan’s young had already perished.

The Silver Rhino King, vast as a mountain, trampled over the Thunder Clan’s rivers and mountains; with just a single gulp, he swallowed numerous Thunder Clan warriors who couldn’t escape in time.

"Crunch!"

The bones of these warriors shattered, and the Silver Rhino King’s fangs were stained with fresh blood, containing the flesh of another race in his teeth.

This brutal Demon King emitted a terrifying roar, causing the young Thunder Clan warriors to quake in fear.

Similar images, similar scenes of massacre, presented themselves across different continents controlled by the Thunder Clan.

The other Demon Kings, too, revealed their cruel bloodthirstiness, gobbling up the Thunder Clan tribe members alive, and racing towards the Thunder Clan’s sacred cities.

"Kill! To war! Slay the demons!"

Lei Fan transmitted the command with his heart’s blood.

Over thousands of miles of land, numerous territories, the great battle of the clans kicked off, instantly boiling over.

The howls of the Demon Kings, the cries of the Thunder Clan warriors, and the scenes of resistance against the Demon Kings and Great Demons sprang up continuously in Pang Jian’s mind.

He was somewhat surprised.

He hadn’t expected that the Unicorn’s roar would immediately ignite the war between the Demon Race and the Thunder Clan, escalating it to a fever pitch in an instant.

He had planned to deal with the three Great Demon Gods and thereby resolve the Demon Race’s encroachment on the Thunder Clan.

He intended to resolve the Thunder Clan’s current crisis, as a way of standing guard for the Thunder God and protecting his people.

Unexpectedly, the Unicorn was so ruthless and decisive that war erupted without any warning.

The war initiated by the Demon Race, the killings carried out on the Thunder Clan members, accompanied by tearing, swallowing alive, nibbling, blood spattering, and splintered bones flying.

The bloody savagery of the demons sent a chill through Pang Jian.

He couldn’t help but think, if one day the Demon Race in Purgatory grew as powerful as the Thunder Clan in Thunder Prison and launched a furious assault on the Human Race, would it be just as cruel and bloody?

The True Gods’ vigilance and repeated breaking of covenants with the Demon Race had indeed curtailed their development, while also undermining their own credibility.

Right and wrong, when viewed from different standpoints, were really hard to define.

"All of this is your own doing," laughed the Vermilion Bird, "We’d planned to trick you into leaving and let the God Spirits outside deal with you. Alas, since you didn’t fall for it, we’ll have to take matters into our own hands."

The giant serpent said coldly, "Lord Hemo Tian has spoken, He wants to see the Thunder Clan fall into despair, so we must carry out the orders."

"We intended to delay this matter and not rush into action. But you two just didn’t know better, insisting on revealing the truth to outsiders. So, you two can die first."

The Demon God, versed in water, spat out Her serpent tongue.

Above that tongue were beads brimming with rich water vapor.

The greenish-black "Dark Water Mysterious Pearl," a recent gift from Hemo Tian, bestowed upon Her a terrifying power after She refined it.

She was full of confidence, feeling that with the "Dark Water Mysterious Pearl" in Her mouth, She could easily dispatch Lei Fan and Lei Ying to their quick deaths!

"Mysterious Water Realm, Dark Blue Seas of the Heavens!"

Seven "Dark Water Mysterious Pearls," flung by Her serpent tongue ahead, turned into seven vast greenish-black maritime domains.

Some of these domains were in the sky, some were like land, some were like barrier realms, scattered across the void at the summit of Thunder God Mountain.

The thirty-thousand-zhang-high Silver-white Mountain, was very close to the dome of Thunder Prison.

As the "Mysterious Water Realm" formed by those seven domains materialized, the majestic Thunder God Mountain, including the void at its pinnacle, seemed to have been enveloped by a mysterious maritime realm.

Even Thunder Prison’s "Heaven Forbidden" appeared to be veiled with a layer of greenish-black, like a demon light sky curtain.

The unicorn smiled, slowly retreating into the outer void, beyond those mysterious maritime realms.

The Vermilion Bird followed suit and left.

"Pang Jian, let me take on that Vermilion Bird Divine Bird," Li Yuqing blinked, her spirit high as she gently grasped the Sky-splitting Sword. Her ubiquitous Sword Intent immediately permeated the "Mysterious Water Realm" created by the giant serpent.

Within the seven maritime domains, the giant serpent’s path of water, the demon arrays inside the "Dark Water Mysterious Pearls," were all thrown into chaos by her Sword Intent.

The power of fate had yet to be revealed.

Yet, with just the Sword Intent of the Sky-splitting Sword, with the Tao of slicing all things, she compromised the full might of the "Mysterious Water Realm," the so-called "Dark Blue Seas of the Heavens."

The next moment.

"Ssslash!"

She and the Sky-splitting Sword together passed through a section of greenish-black sea and suddenly appeared in the Vermilion Bird’s field of view.

A cold smile on her lips, she said, "I don’t know why, but I always feel you are weaker than the Demon Gods from Purgatory. In this world, I can’t sense the existence of fate, nor can I feel the Filthy Essence."

"Thunder Prison, in the ’prison’ world rankings of the Mysterious Fog, is far inferior to our Purgatory."

"Naturally, the Demon Gods here are not as powerful as those from Purgatory."

As she spoke, she clenched in her left palm the stone bead she called the "Pearl of Destiny."

Facing the Vermilion Bird Divine Bird, she revealed the stone bead, asking, "Would you like to see your past and future?"

The Vermilion Bird, totally unaware of what fate or Filthy Essence meant,

but could tell that this Human Race girl was mocking all Demon Gods born in Thunder Prison. With anger flaring in her heart, she instinctively looked at the stone bead in Li Yuqing’s palm.

With just one glance, the Vermilion Bird Divine Bird was entrapped.

Her soul, Her spiritual nature, Her will, all sank into the depths of the "Pearl of Destiny."

All of Her past experiences were imprinted onto it, spreading out in a bubbling stream.

...

"Mengnawa, let the two of us handle it!" Lei Ying flicked her sleeve, and hundreds of lightning orbs tumbled out, flying into those "Mysterious Water Realm" created by the "Dark Water Mysterious Pearls" and exploding in the greenish-black Dark Blue Seas.

Mengnawa was the water god serpent’s real name.

Previously, Lei Ying never dared to mention Mengnawa’s name, but now as her clan faced a life-or-death crisis with the potential downfall of the Thunder Clan’s glory at the hands of the Demon Race,

Lei Ying naturally would no longer fear anything.

"Lei Fan, right? The Demon Race’s invasion of your Thunder Clan should be much better under your strong guard," Pang Jian said, surrounded by those Dark Blue Seas. Standing amidst lightning atop the peak of Thunder God Mountain, he reached down with his hand.

The Thunder Pond floated over.

"Boom!"

A magnificent silver-white temple rose from the middle of the Thunder Pond, emitting terrifying Tao that could extinguish all life and the common folk, shattering the so-called Dark Blue Seas to pieces.

What "Mysterious Water Realm," what "Dark Water Mysterious Pearls," piece by piece, they were all destroyed, bursting one after another.

In but a breath’s time, the Divine Artifact granted by Great Demon God Hemo Tian to Mengnawa was turned to dust and ashes.

That resurrected Thunder Divine Court, even without reaching the peak of its might, had no difficulty blasting apart lower-grade objects like "Dark Water Mysterious Pearls."

"Go ahead, Lei Fan," Pang Jian casually stepped onto the broad Silver-white Temple, standing like a domineering Sky God who commanded the heavens.
