The large, dark hall was eerie and cold. Black smoke rose up, and it looked as though it would devour any living thing that was in it. Black stone seats were set up in the hall, and every seat was occupied by a shadow. Darkness lingered around these shadows, and the Demonic Energy in them caused the space to shake. The entire hall was filled with horrifying Demonic Energy, and the hall seemed to be filled with thousands of demons.

At the center of the hall, 32 black thrones were set in an arch shape, extending out on both sides. Each throne was occupied by a huge Demonic Shadow, and as the Demonic Shadow breathed, vast Demonic Energy turned into various golems that exuded vast Demonic Power. The rest of the shadows lowered their heads to show their respect for them.

A Demonic Shadow burning with Demonic Flames was seated at the center of the Demonic Shadows. Occasionally, the Demonic Flames would exude black light and then switch to white light. As the two colors switched around, it looked extremely strange. The Demonic Flames seemed to contain an emotionless pair of eyes, and as they looked around, even the space trembled as though it were afraid.

A faint, deep voice from the Demonic Flames asked, “Is everyone here?”

Beside the Demonic Flames was a figure robed in black that was seated on a Demonic Throne. The figure lifted up his head, revealing his pale face. His eyes were filled with weird-looking black whirlpools. They were so weird that anyone who looked at them would be dazed. The figure looked at the Demonic Shadow with the Demonic Flames, and a smile broke out on his pale face. His voice was gentle as he said, “This time around, our Heaven Demon Clan is early.”

A Demonic Shadow nearby said, “My Corpse Devil Clan is here as well.” This Demonic Shadow was filled with corpse gas, and as the corpse gas filled the hall, the air turned grayish. If Mu Chen were around, he would have recognized the Demonic Shadow. He was the one Mu Chen had fought in the Lower Planes, but the Martial Ancestor came and stopped the fight. He was the Black Corpse Heaven Demon Emperor from the Corpse Devil Clan.

After him, the rest of the Demonic Shadows on the 32 seats took turns to report. They represented the 32 Main Clans of the Extraterritorial Race. The Demonic Energy of the entire Myriad Demons Hall was dense.

When the Demonic Shadow with the black and white Demonic Flames saw that the various clan leaders had gathered together, he nodded. His faint voice then resounded in the dark space of every corner. “Three months from now, the Great Thousand World will be holding the Great Thousand Alliance, and they will be starting all over again.”

As this statement was being made, demonic light surged in the eyes of the 31 Demonic Shadows who were sitting on the Demonic Thrones, and the atmosphere was chilling.

The Black Corpse Heaven Demon Emperor said, “This day has finally come!” The corpse gas around him surged and indistinctly, several corpse shadows appeared around him.

A Demonic Shadow sitting on one of the thrones said, “We have waited for so many thousands of years, and now it is time to act. It is time to make the Great Thousand World live in fear.” This Demonic Shadow had long hands, and his fingernails were black. As he waved his hand, the space cracked, and his fingernails exuded a horrifyingly sharp aura. This Demonic Shadow was the Clan Leader of the Blade Demon Clan, the Sky-Tearing Demon Emperor.

The Demonic Shadows in the Myriad Demons Hall cried out, and they were filled with killing intent. The one sitting on the main seat stretched out his flaming hand, and everyone quietened down. This Demonic Shadow was the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor, the Clan Leader of the Saint Demon Clan, and he was the head of the 32 Main Clans.

The Heavenly Evil Deity, who had caused the Immortal Emperor to sacrifice his life in order to seal him up, was from the Saint Demon Clan, thus the Saint Demon Clan took up the leadership position. After the Heavenly Evil Deity had been sealed, the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor headed the various Demon Clans.

“Don’t underestimate the current Great Thousand World. According to the information that I have received, although there is no one as powerful as the Immortal Emperor, there are still many masters around. The Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor are the biggest threats to our Extraterritorial Race,” the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor said as the black and white Demonic Flames burned in his eyes.

“How was it when you exchanged blows with the Flame Emperor back then?” The Clan Leader of the Heaven Demon Clan asked as the black whirlpool in his eyes twirled around.

The Heaven Demon Clan was top among the 32 Main Clans, and their power was overbearing. The Clan Leader of the Heaven Demon Clan was as powerful as the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor, and he was also known as the Dark Heaven Demon Emperor. Due to his status, the Dark Heaven Demon Emperor knew that more than ten years ago, the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor had secretly exchanged blows with the Flame Emperor, but he had not disclosed it.

The Demonic Flames in the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor’s eyes sparked as he said, “The Flame Emperor is indeed extraordinary, and he has great attainments in the use of fire. When we exchanged blows previously, even my Saint Demon Flame was no match for him.”

The Demonic Shadows were shocked when they heard it, and even the golems behind all the Demonic Shadows surged. “Even the Saint Demon Flame is no match for him?” The Demonic Shadows looked at one another and started to turn grave. They knew the power of the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor’s Saint Demon Flame. Even those top powers who were at the same level as he was did not dare to take it head on, but it had had no effect on the Flame Emperor!

“Seems like the Great Thousand World has some foundation. The Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor are not easy targets to deal with.” When the Black Corpse Heaven Demon Emperor heard what had been said, he opened his mouth and said in a cold voice, “I have met the Martial Ancestor before. He exuded a strong oppression. If I were to take him on, I think I am no match for him.”

After pausing for a moment, the Black Corpse Heaven Demon Emperor suddenly looked at one corner of the Myriad Demons Hall and said in a petrifying voice, “I have heard that the Martial Ancestor comes from the Lower Planes. Back then, when your Strange Demonic Race discovered the Lower Planes and tried to take it over, you did not do a good job. You not only failed to get hold of it, you allowed this bane to come to the Great Thousand World and create such a big problem for us!”

Everyone fixed their gazes on the particular corner of the Myriad Demons Hall where a Demonic Shadow was shivering. The Demonic Energy around his body surged, revealing his inner feelings. The Demonic Shadow was the Clan Leader of the Strange Demonic Race. Among the Extraterritorial Race, his strength was considered ordinary. There was a great disparity between his strength and the 32 Main Clan Leaders’. When the Black Corpse Heaven Demon Emperor reprimanded him, he had to accept it and did not dare say a word.

However, he was fuming with anger in his heart, and he felt that he had been treated unfairly. It was the responsibility of the entire Extraterritorial Race to take over the Lower Planes, but their Strange Demon Race was too unlucky to have eyed the area of the Lower Planes the Martial Ancestor came from. He was extremely powerful, and now that he had entered the Great Thousand World, he had become an arch-enemy of their Extraterritorial Race.

“Since we cannot change anything now, there is no point talking about it.” The Saint Heaven Demon waved his hand and stopped the Black Corpse Heaven Demon Emperor from continuing. His eyes were dark, and he said flatly, “The Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor are indeed a great threat to us. However, if our deity is able to break through the seal, he can kill them easily. Pass down the order. From today onward, attack the Endless Fire Territory and the Martial Border. Hold up the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor so that they are unable to go to the place of the seal.”

“Yes, my lord!” the Demonic Shadows shouted, and the Demonic Energy rose up and filled the Myriad Demons Hall.

“Saint Demon, even if we manage to hold up the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor, the Immortal Emperor has set up a World Array around the place where he sealed up our deity. We will be thrown out once we get near it. How are we to help our deity break the seal?” The Demonic Shadow that made this statement exuded myriad rays of Demonic Light, and the space behind him surged. The space seemed to contain several Demon Oceans, and the Demonic Power was amazing. This Demonic Shadow was the Spirit Demon Clan Leader, the Spirit Heaven Demon Emperor.

The Saint Heaven Demon Emperor looked down and said, “I already have it planned out. You just act according to what we have agreed on. Remember, this is our last chance. Although we occupy half of the Great Thousand World, we are the outsiders, rejected by the Great Thousand World. Only when we take over it completely can we then change it. If we do not do so, even if no one in the Great Thousand World deals with us, we will gradually be eliminated by them.”

When all the Demonic Shadows heard it, a ferocious light flashed across their eyes, and an icy aura emanated from them.

“Go!” the Saint Heaven Demon Emperor said and dismissed the Demonic Shadows. All the Demonic Shadows stood up and bowed respectfully to him. They then turned into Demonic Light and disappeared.

The 32 Main Clan Leaders stood up and stepped out in the air, carrying with them vast Demonic Energy fluctuations. In just a short while, the Myriad Demons Hall was empty. The Saint Heaven Demon Emperor lifted up his head and looked in the direction of the Great Thousand World with his crazed, flaming eyes.

“My deity, the day when you are back will be the day that the Great Thousand World submits to you! When this happens, we will make sure that all the living things in the Great Thousand World are punished for having sealed you up for 49,000 years.”
