Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Therefore, after the horned demons breached the main city, they did not take over the work of their subordinate demons, but instead let the demons and professionals fight each other.

Even these war fortresses remained unconquered; without the support of the main city, these isolated fortresses wouldn't last long anyway.

"Damn demon!"

Seeing the once bustling Upper City reduced to ruins, the five patriarchs who had rushed over couldn't help but have red eyes, regretting that they had arrived too late.

"Where is Taejo?"

The five patriarchs could not contain themselves and instantly wiped away the demons in front of them before they began to search for Tai Zu's whereabouts.

This is an unusual situation; both sides are already bloodthirsty and determined to fight to the death, so there's no need to consider any moral constraints.

Are you looking for him?

Just then, two powerful auras appeared, instantly drawing the attention of the ancestors.

A bull-horned demon and a hellfire demon stood in mid-air, looking at the crowd with mocking expressions.

"A high-ranking demon!"

They had seen the horned demon before, and the aura emanating from the fire demon on the other side was also at the level of a high-ranking demon.

The result was obvious: the demons summoned new, powerful demons and eventually breached the main city.

Although the main city's defenses are strong, it ultimately only has the Tai family patriarch as its gold-level expert, making the margin for error too low.

Enemies meeting are bound to be hostile, but the five patriarchs had not completely lost their minds and instantly sensed the mockery in the two demons' words.

Besides these few Gold Saints, another being emanated an incredibly complex yet equally immense aura throughout the entire area.

"That is?"

The five patriarchs saw a demon with an extremely strange appearance. It seemed to have the appearance of demons of various attributes, and even had the appearance of a human.

"I must say, the humans in the main world are really amazing. Your people actually killed two of our generals in a row, and they are still alive."

The horned demon looked down at the roaring monster, his tone revealing admiration.

This gold-level expert first used the formation to kill the higher-ranking Bat Demon, and then, when it joined forces with the Flame Demon and the Wind Demon to break through the main city, he single-handedly killed the Wind Demon by using his trump card when facing three opponents.

His strength was so great that even the horned demon had to admire him.

As expected, such power came at a price, and he eventually succumbed to demonic possession, transforming into a monster.

The bull-horned demon originally wanted to kill the monster, but found that it had completely lost its mind and was even killing its own people.

Some of the professionals who tried to help the ancestor recover also died at the hands of the monster.

Seeing this scene of mutual slaughter, the two demons chose to temporarily stop, letting the monster run rampant.

The two demons were especially happy to see the humans rushing towards them one after another.

"Taizu!"

Upon hearing the two demons' words, the five patriarchs reacted instantly. Although the monster's aura was extremely mixed, they still sensed a somewhat familiar aura within it.

"The Myriad Blood Transformation Spirit Array..."

The five patriarchs gasped in shock, instantly realizing the immense price Taizu had paid to protect the main city. It seemed he had even lost his sense of self, becoming a monster in the process.

Looking at the monster before them, the five patriarchs also felt a sense of unease, especially with two high-ranking demons eyeing them menacingly.

Seemingly sensing the fluctuations of the five ancestors, the two demons immediately revealed a mocking expression. They loved seeing humans agonizing over their inner thoughts and morals.

There's nothing they can do; the demons simply lack these things.

Seeing that Taizu had completely lost his mind and couldn't even take down his own clansmen, the five ancestors' anger had reached its peak.

"Take care of these demons first!" Ancestor Stan said coldly. "You don't need to worry about Taizu anymore. Go kill the other demons, or just hide."

The former was addressed to another ancestor, while the latter was directed at the surrounding clansmen.

"Yes, ancestor!"

The Tai family members were filled with grief and indignation. Their ancestor had been reduced to this state to protect them, but they were powerless to do anything about it.

"We are happy that our ancestor can avenge us."

"Five against two, we'll take you out in one go!" Ancestor Stan glared at the two high-ranking demons, his anger burning.

Once you've resolved these issues, you haven't reached the point of complete breakdown.

"Five against two?"

The bull-horned demon chuckled, and then three high-ranking demons flew in from afar; they were the same ones who had imprisoned the ancestor back then.

Meanwhile, the high-ranking demons responsible for guarding the outer perimeter also rushed over. The city had already fallen, so there was no point in continuing to block Blackwater City from seeking help from the outside world; it was too late.

Even if these ancestors chose to join forces to escape, they couldn't take everyone from Blackwater City with them; their fate was already sealed.

"It's six against five now."

Six high-ranking demons surrounded the five ancestors. Although both sides suffered losses, the demons not only had one more demon, but the extra demon was also at full strength.

Moreover, they are supported by an army of tens of millions of demons, who can wear these people down through attrition.

Seeing the demons closing in, the five patriarchs felt a chill in their hearts, and a trace of calm appeared in their anger.

Although the family business they had built up over a long period of time was destroyed, as long as they were still alive, there was still a chance for everything.

The numbers are all manageable, but the gap between gold-level individuals is still quite large, and it's common for a strong individual to fight against many.

However, the strength of the bull-horned demon and the fire demon, even from a distance, was terrifying; they were exceptionally powerful.

"Ancestor Stan!" The five ancestors couldn't help but communicate telepathically.

"Haha, don't even think about running away!"

However, the six demons on the other side gave them no other ideas and rushed forward instantly.

"Die!"

……

Chapter 833 Fight to the Death

"kill!"

The horned demon, along with five other high-ranking demons, blocked the five ancestors. Looking at the gold-level life form from the main world, they were all extremely hungry.

There are many lives in the Upper City, but the most suitable ones are for sacrifice, mainly for quantity.

But these gold-level beings have undergone a qualitative change in their origin, making them the most delicious food in the eyes of demons.

Now that we have the opportunity, we naturally can't let go of these gold-level beings.

Who knows when they'll be able to devour the gold-level beings of the main world again?

Although these "foods" each possess extraordinary strength, and can even threaten their lives.

But if even ordinary people are willing to take risks for a delicious meal, then demons are no exception; in this respect, they are also "gourmets."

"You want to kill me!"

The Lei family patriarch had a tyrannical expression on his face as he watched his clansmen die one after another; he had long been unable to bear it.

Faced with the demon before him, the Lei family patriarch instantly abandoned any thought of fleeing.

Not everyone is willing to sacrifice a pawn to save the king; after so many years, there are naturally many feelings involved.

The Lei family patriarch decided to fight to the death, and some other patriarchs who wanted to save their own lives first suddenly felt distressed.

Withdrawing is not an option, nor is staying.

The main point is that the other side is willing to fight to the death, but that doesn't mean they are willing to risk their lives for the sake of a few of them escaping. These are two completely different concepts.

The demons have a huge advantage right now, and if they can't unite as one, things will get pretty bad.

"Let's see who dies first!"

Before the other elders could even form an idea, the Lei family patriarch was the first to rush forward.

Zizi!

With a wave of his hand, the Lei family patriarch instantly conjured a thunderous prison in the sky, sealing off the entire surrounding area.

Whether it was the six high-ranking demons or the five patriarchs, they were all within the range of Thunderstorm Prison.

Although there is no legendary realm among the Gold rank, some veteran Gold rank cultivators still practice various secret techniques and condense some simplified versions of their abilities.

"Damn Lei Zu, he doesn't want to live, and he won't let us have an easy time either." The ancestors who were thinking of retreating couldn't help but curse under their breath when they saw this scene.

The Lei family patriarch was fully aware of this as well. After all, it was impossible to expect everyone to fight the demons to the death, and it was normal for some people to be unwilling.

However, since he was already prepared to risk his life, how could he possibly care about these people? Naturally, he would do whatever was in his best interest.

It's highly unlikely that those people would turn around and join forces with the demons to kill him.

Zi La Zi La!

Massive thunderstorms continued to emerge, exploding in the air and emitting waves of electromagnetic force.

However, since the demon Momo was born from the abyss and is not a ghost, it does not fear lightning.

"Thunder and Lightning Might!"

The Flame Demon licked its lips, a look of interest appearing in its eyes.

"You are mine now!"

As if he had spotted some delicious food, the Flame Demon charged directly at the Lei family patriarch without hesitation.

In an instant, flames carrying the scent of sulfur erupted from hell, turning the lightning-filled sky orange.

"The culprit who destroyed the main city!"

Seeing the Flame Demon's attack, the Lei family patriarch was extremely envious. The hellfire swirling around the main city constantly revealed the enemy's identity.

"Haha, humans cooked by hellfire have a unique flavor. Would you like to try some with me?" The fire demon's eyes revealed a playful look as it frantically stirred up its enemy's emotions.

"Demon, I will devour your flesh and blood piece by piece!" The Lei family patriarch was furious, unable to contain his rage.

boom!
