  Especially when from having seen the recording of that woman while refining the pillar of the Divine Palace back then, Yan Zhaoge could be certain that there must still have been some people who had successfully escaped the Great Calamity and survived.

  “This seal seems to be reliant on some kind of treasure,” After gazing at the golden light down below for a moment, Yan Zhaoge ceased in such thoughts as he returned his attention to the deep abyss of the Earth Domain before him.

  He saw the golden light and the black fog clashing unceasingly.

  The Nine Underworlds baleful qi grew denser and denser, fiercer and fiercer as it shot upwards unceasingly.

  Accompanied by the increase in strength of the black fog, the golden light’s resistance seemed to have increased alongside it as well. However, if one observed closely and carefully, it would be apparent from the changes within that it had become more stiff and awkward somewhat.

  They understood as soon as they saw it. While the seal below seemed like it still possessed abundant strength, under the accumulated assault of the Nine Underworlds baleful qi over a long period of time, its spirituality had gradually began deteriorating as it weakened unceasingly.

  The more this was so, the more one would feel like sighing in admiration.

  After all, the tragic state of the Hell had already been the status quo for an extremely long time. Despite all that, however, the seal below had managed to hold on for such a long time, still persisting on irregardless.

  As they descended, Yuan Zhengfeng’s eyes suddenly lit up, “Fang Zhun.”

  The next moment, however, his expression turned grave.

  He saw his disciple Fang Zhun shrouded completely by the clashing Nine Underworlds baleful qi and golden sunlight, his body sinking downwards unceasingly.

  Fang Zhun had been remaining on the very frontlines, observing the changes in the Earth Domain. He was the first to have reported on the intensification of the situation this time.

  However, the result of going in too deep was himself currently being trapped within as well.

  While Fang Zhun’s expression was stern, it was not due to his own personal situation as he was instead staring intently at the deep abyss down below.

  Seeing Yan Zhaoge, Yuan Zhengfeng and the others arrive, he raised his voice and shouted, “It’s coming!”

  Before his words had landed, golden light exploded down below, seemingly pushed all the way up by a certain something.

  Looking down below, Yan Zhaoge and the others saw the exploding golden light rise rapidly upwards.

  Meanwhile, even further downwards could be seen a great amount of roiling black fog which seemed to possess a life of its own.

  As the golden light neared, everyone was able to clearly feel the vigorous, surging force contained within.

  However, as the black fog approached, all of them were able to more clearly feel that terrifying aura of the Nine Underworlds as well.

  All here were peak experts of the Eight Extremities World. However, at this moment, their hearts all fell into disarray with a violent, temperamental intent that was hard to suppress surging within.

  This was already no longer the negative emotions within a martial practitioner’s soul acting up. Rather than that, it was like someone was forcibly trampling over their hearts, unearthing the darkest corner that existed within before amplifying it unbridled to be exposed for all to see.

  Yuan Zhengfeng, Huang Guanglie, Shen Li and An Qinglin roared loudly in unison.

  With their combined forces, streams of light suffused the darkness as they suppressed the Nine Underworlds baleful qi together.

  With them bearing the bulk of the pressure, it was instantly much easier for everyone else as they unleashed their power after having stabilised their minds, helping to suppress the black fog together.

  As the black fog’s upwards momentum slowed, the emotion of fury immediately emanated from the depths of the abyss, shaking everyone’s hearts.

  Yan Zhaoge inhaled deeply, “It is different from when the descent of the Great Nine Underworlds Door failed and it was forced to close!”

  Back when the Devilish Domain Grand Formations were broken, preventing the descent of the Great Nine Underworlds Door, furiousness would also emanate from within the great door.

  However, while being incomparably majestic, that emotion had appeared illusory as well, as if the Nine Underworlds itself possessed fury at having been stopped.

  While the current fury from the deep abyss down below was not so majestic, it felt much more real.

  The upward momentum of the golden light and the black fog slowed before they fell into a stalemate within the deep abyss.

  As they fell silent, a round object now distinctly appeared before their eyes.

  As Yan Zhaoge looked over, it was like a true sun that was incomparably dazzling as well as blazing hot had appeared before his eyes.

  Innumerable golden runes formed numerous streams of light that resembled chains yet also ribbons as they intermingled within the air, flying all around.

  Below, infinite darkness faced off against the large golden sun.

  Countless dark chains extended from within the darkness which entangled with the golden chains up above, clashing unceasingly.

  There seemed to be lines of blood on the surface of all these black chains, riddled densely with dark red streams of light which flowed in an endless stream.

  As the vast, majestic forces clashed unceasingly in mid-air, the entire space where the large golden sun and the dense dark fog met distorted completely, disordered beyond compare.

  Yan Zhaoge could vaguely feel that the actual size of the huge golden sun might be much greater that what he was currently seeing before him.

  However, it was appearing like how it was now due to spatial distortions.

  Meeting this terrifying domain, even Yuan Zhengfeng and Huang Guanglie had clear looks of wariness appear within their gazes.

  The numerous golden streams of light and the numerous black chains clashed as they expanded unceasingly outwards in all directions.

  Accompanied by their rise within the deep abyss, the entire Earth Domain was gradually illuminated!

  If one was currently looking down from high within the sky from outside the deep abyss, they would see the Earth Domain that was comparable in size to the Heaven Domain lighting up in its entirety.

  The dense golden threads of gold and black riddled the vast earth all around like spiderwebs, shocking to the eye!

  “Let’s move,” Yuan Zhengfeng said, “If we let the Nine Underworlds truly connect with our Eight Extremities World, all of us will face the fate of destruction. That is not a place that is comparable to the Flame Devil World.”

  Everyone here nodded quietly to his words.

  The Nine Underworlds had already existed in pre-Great Calamity times. It had stood in clear opposition with the great thousand worlds back then, being the darkest and most vile place in the universe.

  This was unlike the Flame Devil World, the Floating Life World, the Vast Ocean World as well as the Eight Extremities World, which were all fragments of the previous great thousand heavens and earth of back then.

  The Nine Underworlds were the Nine Underworlds. When had anyone ever called it the Nine Underworlds World?

  Just its name itself already differentiated it from the Flame Devil World.

  After staring at that large golden sun for a long time, Huang Guanglie and the other Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners all sighed before shifting away their gazes.

  Everyone moved, unceasingly bolstering that huge golden sun with their collective strength.

  Clear qi, sunlight, thunderbolts, clouds.

  Countless sigils manifested into different phenomena which turned into countless runes. These formed a formation within the air which continually suppressed the black fog in
place.

  Over this past period of time, other than Fang Zhun and the various other higher echelon Elders of the Sacred Grounds who had been stationed here to watch over the area, Yuan Zhengfeng, Huang Guanglie and the other bigwigs had often come to the Earth Domain as well.

  With danger looming, all of their former reservations were flung aside as the experts unceasingly observed and projected the current situation of the Earth Domain, their understanding of it growing deeper and deeper.

  With external enemies before them, the bigwigs temporarily joined hands and combined their information as they discussed and tried to come up with some possible solutions together.

  Yan Zhaoge did not make a move, instead continuing to observe and analyse things intently.

  The current method of Yuan Zhengfeng and the others still prioritised stability. They wished to continue relying on that massive golden sun as the core of the seal as they reinforced it.

  It was just that not being the original owners of the seal, they found it much more difficult to reinforce it.

  Even so, the situation had already fallen under control, the black fog unable to continue rising as the huge golden sun even began to sink down once more, suppressing the black fog along with it.

  That fury and resentment within the deep abyss grew denser and denser. A soundless roar resounded by all their ears, as if clamping their hearts deep within.

  On the numerous black chains that extended through the darkness, the dense bloodred patterns of light suddenly turned bright and dazzling.

  Then, numerous streams of blood qi surged from the black chains which transformed into numerous Evil Devils, shooting over towards Yan Zhaoge and the others!

  Yuan Zhengfeng, Huang Guanglie and the other two Martial Saint experts did not move as they continued reinforcing the seal in earnest.

  The Essence Talisman Martial Grandmasters of the various clans who had come with them sprung into action, expanding in a heated battle with the numerous Evil Devils manifested of devilish qi.

  These Evil Devils were extremely powerful as one could not help but feel shocked at their strength.

  Just merely devils manifested of devilish qi already possessed such great strength. Then, what sort of existence must the source of the devilish qi that was attempting to escape from the deep abyss down below be?

  Also, how many such existences were there in the Nine Underworlds? Just thinking about it alone was sufficient to make everybody tremble in fear.

  Now, someone suddenly approached from the deep abyss up above.

  Raising their heads and gazing upwards, they saw that it was a longtime Elder of Jade Sea City who had come.

  His expression livid, he reported in a heavy tone, “Trouble over at the East Sea! The Flame Devils have assaulted yet again!”

  “Several Flame Devil Kings equivalent to human experts at the second level of the Martial Saint realm have passed through the dimensional passageway and arrived within the Inner East Sea!”

  Everyone felt a chill instantly shoot up their spines and straight to the top of their heads.

  Currently, on the East Sea, blazing fire was once again surging into the heavens as many Flame Devils, led by a great many powerful Flame Devil Kings, were killing their way into the Eight Extremities World.

  The foremost defensive lines of the human race were instantly wiped out!

  HSSB470: Fire singeing their brows

  Amidst the grand waves of the Outer East Sea, there was not even a single isle that could be seen.

  The isles here had all already been long since levelled and destroyed during the previous invasions by the Flame Devils.

  Currently, numerous large air bubbles had risen to the surface of the Outer East Sea, the entire ocean seemingly boiling.

  Sky could no longer be seen up above as there were only all-encompassing flames which ran rampant all around.

  Many powerful Flame Devils traversed the horizon, scattering outwards in all directions as they brought along with them an air of destruction and disaster.

  The Great Flame Devil at the forefront had the body of a tiger-man as he appeared savage and terrifying, roars emitted unceasingly from his throat.

  Suddenly, his body abruptly halted in mid-air.

  The next moment, countless flames shot out from behind him.

  The back of his head, the back of his neck, his back, the back of his waist, his backside, his limbs, the soles of his limbs…flames shot out from all of these.

  The flames condensed in the air behind this Great Flame Devil, instantly forming a splendid scene.

  A painting formed completely of blazing flames that was filled with great mountains and rivers gloriously filled the air in all its majestic beauty.

  The scene of flames hung within the air, incomparably splendid, incomparably brilliant, not dissipating for a long time.

  Terrifying power was contained within this beauty as it resembled a cage. As the next Flame Devils rushed forward, as they failed to stop in time and slammed headlong into that ‘flame painting’, it was as if they had been transported into another world.

  A world of mountains and rivers that was formed completely of flames. While Flame Devils did not fear blazing fire, while within this world, they were subject to many powerful attacks of qi that struck fiercely at them.

  Meanwhile, the light of fire in the body of that Great Flame Devil was extinguished, the roars in his throat ceasing as he plummeted towards the sea’s surface down below, no longer exhibiting any signs of life.

  A refined-looking old man, his hands behind his back, appeared slowly within the air.

  The Flame Devils speeding over from another direction suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable.

  With their natural bodies of fire, they could clearly feel the amount of water vapour in the surrounding air suddenly increasing greatly.

  Before they could react, the surfaces of their bodies suddenly exploded with sparks.

  It was like a person’s skin splitting apart and fresh blood spurting out from within.

  A fine yet majestic power that was formless yet hard to resist instantly enveloped all these Flame Devils.

  While they wanted to avoid it, they were completely unable to do so. These attacks came from all directions, came from every single corner within the air, enveloping every single inch of their entire bodies without exception.

  Penetrating all, omnipresent, potent against all.

  The source of these formless sword blades was the water vapour that densely enveloped the surrounding area.

  While under the blazing fire, the water vapour should originally be eradicated completely, the blazing fire seemed completely helpless in the face of it.

  The water vapour had transformed into innumerable sharp swords at this moment as it assassinated these Flame Devils from all directions.

  Meanwhile, this weak-looking water vapour just seemed completely indestructible, awesomely sharp as the Flame Devil experts were hard pressed to defend against it.

  Some struggled to resist, but the water vapour seemed infinite and boundless, flowing forth in an endless stream.

  Countless assassinations via swords occurred, the bodies of Flame Devils collapsing directly.

  Bodies being ripped into ten thousand parts were insufficient to describe this scene. It was like a human’s body of flesh and blood had been shredded through a grinder into a messy rain of flesh and blood!

  An infinite sea of flames exploded, scattering towards the ocean down below.

  The Lord of Jade Sea City, Song Wuliang, appeared in this direction, innumerable illusory lights circulating unceasingly about him, streaks of sword-qi indistinct to the eye densely suffusing his surroundings.

  Against the countless attacking Flame Devils, clear moonlight arose above the sea’s surface.

  As the moonlight arose, it seemed actually able to compete with the light of the sun.

&nbs
p; The insufferable heat borne of the infinite blazing flames instantly dropped, a pleasant coolness that was long overdue appearing within the air.

  Very quickly, however, extremely powerful fluctuations emanated from the direction of the incoming Flame Devils, the temperature between the heavens and the earth rising once more.

  There had not just been a single one of these powerful fluctuations of strength. Gathered together, their momentum was fearsome as they headed on westward with the momentum of crushing all that stood before them.

  To the east of the great sea, the boundaries between the heavens and the earth had grown blurred, only a crimson colour remaining as blazing fire enveloped the entire sky.

  Song Wuliang and the refined-looking old man drew close to the moonlight at their centre together.

  “Elder Mo, we should currently be seeking stability,” Song Wuliang said in a heavy tone.

  The refined-looking old man was naturally the Painting Saint Old Man Mo. He nodded, retreating slowly alongside Song Wuliang.

  Meng Wan, currently controlling the Extreme Yin Crown, was naturally without objection as well as she cautiously followed her two seniors.

  While the Outer East Sea had not turned completely into a sea of flames like it had the last time, four whole Flame Devil Kings equivalent to level two Martial Saints now stood before them. Adding on the other Flame Devils Kings and the Great Flame Devils, the destructive torrent they had formed left even Song Wuliang and the others only able to gradually retreat rather than resist head-on.

  Infinite Boundless Mountain’s Chief, Chu Yan, had originally been located right between the East Sea and the Earth Domain, prepared to reinforce any of the two sides if so necessary.

  Upon receiving this news, Chu Yan immediately brought along Infinite Boundless Mountain’s Sacred Artifact, the Heaven Cleaving Axe, in hurrying over to East Sea.

  Even so, however, it still felt insufficient as the experts of the human race could only continually retreat amidst the continuous advance of the Flame Devils, giving up on the Outer East Sea once more as they retreated all the way to Jade Sea City in the Inner East Sea, relying on the Jade Sea Limitless Grand Formation as their base and fortress with which to block the Flame Devils’ footsteps.
