In just a dozen breaths, the tenth heaven of the Netherworld was breached.
During this time, when some of the array spaces shattered, the two superior-level gods, a dozen or so mid-level gods, and more than a hundred inferior-level gods from the Netherworld were unable to dodge in time and were instantly annihilated by the massive array of tens of thousands of gods from the Living Beings Realm.
"boom--"
The powerful beings from the Netherworld, such as the Jade Emperor and the Three-Eyed Emperor, had just entered the eleventh heaven when the boundary of the eleventh heaven shattered instantly, unable to hold back tens of thousands of beings at the God Realm for even a moment.
"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"
The Heavenly King had already coordinated with the eleventh heaven's formation. Strength from the formation rose up, instantly covering the group of Netherworld experts. However, they could not withstand it and had to retreat continuously.
"This Haotian God King... is indeed troublesome, truly hateful. I wish I had killed him quickly earlier..." A peak-level god in the realm of living beings gritted his teeth and whispered.
If it weren't for the power of these formations activated by the Heavenly King, the simple combined force of these Netherworld Gods wouldn't have been able to withstand their massive attack.
"It's because we can't get too far off this magic weapon; otherwise, we could use more flexible methods and it wouldn't be difficult to deal with them!" sighed a peak-level god from the realm of living beings.
The battle was frustrating for them. They couldn't avoid fighting, because their opponents would keep them occupied and prevent them from leaving. On the other hand, with the high-level gods of the Netherworld gathered together and no other large number of low-level gods present, they had a chance to quickly eliminate their opponents without too much interference.
Fighting them wouldn't work either; the other side wouldn't engage them head-on at all, but instead used array formations to stall them.
Several times, some of their powerful figures used strange methods, hoping to catch their opponents off guard. However, the Three-Eyed Emperor used his divine eye power to neutralize all of these strange methods.
"Kill as many ghost cultivators as possible around us..." After a few more breaths, Ling Wei, the peak Divine Realm cultivator, turned his head to look around, suddenly thought of something, and immediately said in a deep voice.
"yes!"
"good!"
The other powerful beings from the other realms were also moved and quickly nodded in agreement.
They all noticed that when the Haotian God King and his group retreated, they deliberately avoided areas with a large number of ghost cultivators, and even took the initiative to save the lives of some ordinary ghost cultivators. It seemed that the other party cared about the lives of those ordinary ghost cultivators. If they tried to kill as many ordinary ghost cultivators as possible around them, it would probably affect the other party's mind.
If this causes the opponent to make a mistake, then it's an even better deal.
In any case, killing ordinary ghost cultivators is incredibly easy for them; with just a thought, as long as they are within their range, they can annihilate countless of them.
"Boom... Boom..."
Having made this decision, these beings at the Living Spirit Realm and Divine Realm also carried it out. As a result, they deliberately headed towards areas with a large number of ghost cultivators, annihilating groups of ordinary ghost cultivators.
The Netherworld is vast in its entirety, with each level containing trillions of ghost cultivators.
In just one or two breaths, tens of millions of ordinary ghost cultivators were annihilated by these living beings at the God Realm.
"You, dignified experts of the Divine Realm, actually slaughtered ordinary ghost cultivators from the Netherworld like this?" Upon seeing this scene, the powerful figures from the Netherworld, including the Heavenly King and the Three-Eyed Emperor, were all stunned and shocked.
It's no wonder they were so shocked. To these powerful beings at the Divine Realm, cultivators below the Divine Realm were like ants. In their battle, who had the energy or inclination to care about the ants around them? They wouldn't affect their battle at all!
Over the years, the Netherworld God Realm and the Acquired God Dynasty of the Living World have fought several wars, and millions of Netherworld God Realm experts have waged war against the Living World several times, but they have never done so.
It should be noted that many of these cultivators in the Netherworld have risen through the ranks of slaughter; killing is almost a daily occurrence for them.
Even so, they didn't do that. Now, seeing these beings in the realm of gods doing this, how could they not be shocked?
"If you don't want them to die, it's simple: just surrender. I can guarantee that not a single ghost cultivator will be harmed, nor will any of you!" At this moment, Ling Wei, the peak Divine Realm cultivator, coldly smiled and said.
"I never expected that the peak divine realm of the acquired divine dynasty of the Great World of Living Beings would be so stupid! You must have lost your minds. These ghost cultivators are mostly acquired ghost cultivators, mostly fallen beings from various parts of the Great World of Living Beings. They are ghost cultivators from the Netherworld, but they were once beings of the Great World of Living Beings. You don't care about their lives, so why should we care?" The Three-Eyed Emperor shook his head and said.
Upon hearing the Three-Eyed Emperor's words, many powerful beings in the Divine Realm of the Living Beings Realm changed their expressions slightly.
"Very well, since you don't care about their lives, then don't blame us for killing them! The Netherworld and the Realm of Living Beings are enemies, and they are the cornerstone of the Netherworld. Now, we are killing them, and they have no reason to be wronged!" Ling Wei was unmoved by the Three-Eyed Emperor's words and said calmly.
Then, he turned to look at the ordinary ghost cultivators around him and calmly said, "You should know that it was not our Living Beings Realm Gods who killed you, but the powerful beings of your Netherworld! Several years ago, in the Living Beings Great World, your Netherworld Gods waged a massive war against the Living Beings Great World! What was the cause is now the effect! If you have someone to blame, blame these powerful beings of your Netherworld!"
"hateful!"
"mean!"
Hearing this, some ghost cultivators from the Netherworld were furious, but there was nothing they could do. They were fine inside the formation, but once they left, they couldn't withstand the attack and would be killed.
"Let them be arrogant for a while. Soon, our Netherworld's main force of gods will arrive. Then, let's see what they do..." The Three-Eyed Emperor took a deep breath and said coldly.
In the time it takes to breathe or two, the opponent killed tens of millions of ordinary ghost cultivators. It seems like a lot and it's terrifying, but these ghost cultivators are just ordinary ghost cultivators. There aren't even many ghost cultivators at the Saint Realm level. Ghost cultivators at this level are nothing to them.
If they really wanted, they could bring some ghost cultivators to the Netherworld's highest heavens at any time and let them reproduce naturally.
Given the speed of time flow in the Netherworld's high heavens, it won't be long before a large number of ghost cultivators are born in the Netherworld. Moreover, these will be innate ghost cultivators, whose quality and potential far surpass those of ordinary ghost cultivators.
In the lower heavens of the Netherworld, the number of ordinary ghost cultivators in each heaven is in the hundreds of millions. The opponent only managed to kill tens of millions in one or two breaths. Let the opponent kill them and see how many they can kill.
"Damn it..."
"Are they really so indifferent to the lives of these ordinary ghost cultivators?"
"These gods of the underworld are too cold-blooded..."
Some beings in the realm of gods cursed under their breath upon seeing this.
These beings in the realm of gods are not all high-level gods; high-level gods only make up a very small minority. The majority are mid-level or upper-level gods, and there is not a single peak god.
Perhaps, the power of those at the peak of the Divine Realm is too great, having already reached the pinnacle of the entire world of living beings. Therefore, they truly regard ordinary cultivators as mere ants, and they don't care too much about how many they kill in the world of living beings.
Therefore, they fully understood what the Three-Eyed Emperor meant.
Just now, they were just trying it out. If it had any effect on the Three-Eyed Emperor and other ghost cultivators, that would be good. If it didn't have any effect, that wouldn't matter.
The middle and upper-level gods are weaker, and they have spent far less time cultivating than those at the peak god level. They mostly come from ordinary cultivators, and in the Great World of Living Beings, they even have very deep relationships with many ordinary cultivators, serving as leaders of some universes and ancestors of some great clans.
Therefore, they felt deeply when they killed these ordinary ghost cultivators.
They were even influenced by the words of the Three-Eyed Emperor.
These ordinary ghost cultivators are mostly beings who perished in the Great World of Living Beings. Their souls did not reincarnate. Perhaps some of these ordinary ghost cultivators were once their clansmen, friends, or even their elders.
Anything is possible.
Now, their large-scale extermination might have an impact.
They put in so much effort, only to find that these Netherworld Gods didn't care at all. How could they not be furious?
As for the lower-level gods, there were no lower-level gods among the beings from the Netherworld who came to the Netherworld this time.
"Keep killing!" At that moment, a cold glint flashed in Ling Wei's eyes, and he spoke again.
"grown ups……"
"Lord Ling..."
Some beings in the realm of gods looked at Ling Wei.
"Keep killing!" However, before everyone could finish speaking, Ling Wei interrupted them and said in a deep voice again.
How could he not have noticed the changes in everyone?
He never expected that his idea would not affect the enemy, but instead affect them themselves. How could he not be angry?
However, his status and position prevented him from making a mistake!
He wouldn't care about the lives of ordinary ghost cultivators, let alone these ghost cultivators. Even if they were real beings from his realm, mere ants, he wouldn't take them seriously!
He gritted his teeth and urged everyone to continue doing so!
Clearly, he had just noticed that the other party cared about the lives of these ordinary ghost cultivators. How could he have been wrong?
"retreat!"
On the other side, the array space where the Three-Eyed Emperor and his group of ghost cultivators were located was about to break open again, and the Three-Eyed Emperor shouted in a low voice.
Whew! Whew! Whew!
The group of demon cultivators at the Divine Realm retreated.
One breath... two breaths...
In the blink of an eye, another dozen or so breaths had passed!
They have retreated to the thirteenth heaven of the Netherworld.
A powerful aura finally emanated from the fourteenth heaven of the Netherworld.
"boom!"
The boundary of the fourteenth heaven shattered instantly, and a vast and mighty aura pressed down from the sky.
Millions of Netherworld deities formed a battle formation and rapidly approached the Three-Eyed Emperor, the Haotian God King, and other powerful figures from the Netherworld.
"They're here!"
"It's finally here!"
The group of powerful figures from the Netherworld were slightly excited.
The enemy's strength was too great. In just a few dozen breaths, they had lost several high-level gods, hundreds of mid-level gods, and nearly a thousand low-level gods...
If that continues, it's only a matter of time before they are completely wiped out by the enemy. How could they not be panicked?
Their execution of formations cannot be guaranteed to be perfect all the time. Moreover, how can they control where the enemy attacks? One mistake could mean certain death!
Now that their divine realm has come to their aid... they are relieved!
“We have millions of Divine Realm experts on our side... while the other side only has tens of thousands... Even if the enemy's individual strength is powerful, can they still be our match?” A superior Divine Realm expert looked intently at the Divine Realm experts from the Living Being Realm not far away and thought to himself.
"Millions of Divine Realm experts have arrived!"
"A battle formation has been formed..."
"Such speed!"
"The flow of time in the Netherworld is too fast; otherwise, they would never have had time to form such a battle formation..."
Seeing this scene, the various beings in the realm of gods expressed their complex emotions.
They knew that it would be difficult for them to do anything to these powerful beings from the Netherworld again.
Conversely, they should worry about their safety.
"attack!"
Just then, the Three-Eyed Emperor turned his gaze to them and shouted.
"Boom! Rumble—"
What does it mean to have millions of divine beings launch an attack together?
Pieces of the Netherworld space collapsed instantly, barely able to withstand the attack, almost as if they didn't exist. Deep spatial rifts appeared, converging with the massive attack and rapidly heading towards tens of thousands of living beings in the God Realm.
"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"
"Retreat! Retreat!" Some peak-level deities from the realm of living beings gasped and shouted in shock upon seeing this scene.
This scene reminded them of the great war between the Primordial Gods and the Acquired Gods. The combined power of such a massive number of Gods attacking together, even if the vast majority were lower-level or middle-level Gods, was terrifying.
They were unstoppable, capable of killing gods and Buddhas alike.
Even though they have more than twenty peak-level gods on their side, they still can't stop them.
Back then, their acquired god race wasn't this large, so why were they able to defeat the innate god race in the end?
It's just that the powerful members of the Primordial God Clan are too arrogant!
They thought they could withstand a large number of low-level gods with their own powerful strength!
Whew! Whew! Whew!
One by one, the gods of the living realm retreated rapidly.
However, some beings in the realm of gods were unaware of this situation and did not have time to retreat, while others were genuinely caught off guard.
"Boom!"
An immense force passed through them, and with a deafening roar, their figures vanished, and everything in the space they were in was annihilated.
Several high-level gods and more than one hundred mid-level gods in the Later Heaven Divine Dynasty all perished.
Damn it!
Seeing this, Ling Wei's face turned ashen, and he cursed again.
"retreat!"
The next moment, he said in a deep voice.
He knew that with millions of Netherworld Gods appearing and joining forces with the Three-Eyed Emperor and the others, it would be unlikely that they could kill the Three-Eyed Emperor and the other high-level Netherworld Gods individually.
This time, their main purpose in entering the Netherworld was to test the magic weapon they had cultivated and to observe the situation in the Netherworld. They did not intend to actually conquer the Netherworld in one fell swoop.
Now that things have come to this, their mission can be considered almost complete.
At this moment, he was once again annoyed, regretting that he hadn't reacted in time to kill Haotian God King first. The battle just now showed that Haotian God King played a significant role in it.
Who would have thought that in the previous battles, the Heavenly King Haotian had not appeared, and the Three-Eyed Emperor and other powerful figures were almost always the core of the battles.
After they entered the Netherworld, the Jade Emperor suddenly appeared? And even in the Netherworld, the Jade Emperor's array formation abilities are still so strong?
