With Fang Xiu's seclusion, the Lava Lands welcomed a long-awaited peace and tranquility.
However, outside the lava fields, and even throughout the entire hell, a huge uproar ensued.
The Great Sage of Chaos fought alone against twelve third-rank Heavenly Demon Gods, plus one second-rank Heavenly Demon God, and was able to defeat them. Such a terrifying record can be said to be the best in the entire hell.
This even sparked a craze for array formations in Hell, with more and more celestial demons and gods beginning to discuss what constitutes an Eastern array formation.
"Is the Roc Demon King's formation really that powerful? How could he possibly fight thirteen opponents single-handedly?"
"Shh! You still dare to call him Peng Demon King? You're asking for trouble. I've already heard from the people of the Lava Land that the previous lord, the Prison Angel, was eaten because he called Peng Demon King by his full name instead of the respectful title of Great Sage Hun Tian."
"I heard that this Great Sage Equaling Heaven is the sworn brother of Sun Wukong, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven. Even Sun Wukong has to call him Third Brother."
"Hiss! Back in the Land of Reincarnation, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven single-handedly overwhelmed the Seven Angels of Hell, and in the end, he shattered the Six Paths of Reincarnation with a single blow. How could such a figure have to call the Great Sage of Chaos Third Brother?"
"If you ask me, this Great Sage of Chaos is just relying on external objects from the formation; his own strength is only at the third rank."
Some were curious, some were disdainful, but regardless of their attitudes, they all began secretly collecting information on Eastern formations.
Two years later, the jealous angel felt that the Roc Demon King should have recovered enough from his injuries, so he sent someone to deliver a message to him.
In the lava land, Fang Xiu awoke from his cave, holding the letter delivered by the Angel of Jealousy in his hand, glancing at it casually.
"The Underworld?"
He muttered to himself.
The Envious Angel received news that the Underworld was being transferred to the Supreme Heaven, and his mission was to go to the Underworld, kill the gods and immortals sent by the Supreme Heaven to transfer the Underworld, and slaughter the entire region.
Since Zeus and his two companions went into seclusion, the pressure on the High Heaven has been greatly reduced, and there is even room to protect other realms and help them relocate.
Faced with this situation, the Demon Realm would naturally not stand idly by and watch the immortals and gods transfer, so they naturally sent troops to stop them, and the mission assigned to Hell was the Yellow Springs Domain.
It is said that the Supreme Heaven sent a second-rank righteous god, while Hell, for the sake of safety, prepared to send two second-rank Heavenly Demon Gods, plus six third-rank Heavenly Demon Gods. One of these six third-rank Heavenly Demon Gods is the Peng Demon King.
In addition, the letter specifically instructed Peng Demon King not to clash with other Heavenly Demon Gods again, but to unite against external threats.
But the instructions were given to the Peng Demon King; what does that have to do with me?
Teng!
A demonic flame rose from Fang Xiu's fingertips, burning the letter to ashes.
"Two second-rank Venerables, five third-rank Venerables, and hundreds of millions of souls—this trip is worthwhile."
A demonic flame flickered in Fang Xiu's eyes. He had not eaten for two years and was starving.
Killing these Heavenly Demon Gods was not difficult for him, because he had already mastered the Ten Thousand Demons Paying Homage to the Emperor, and he would no longer be in the embarrassing situation of not being able to kill a second-rank being with one punch.
Through the efforts of countless celestial demons and gods, the "Ten Thousand Demons Paying Homage" system was finally born into the world after thousands of years. Although it is not yet perfect, it can still be used to fight enemies.
That's about the level of intelligence of those Heavenly Demon Gods. They won't be needed to further improve the Myriad Demons' Gathering. Fang Xiu plans to capture some First-Rank Heavenly Demon Gods in the future and then completely improve them.
The real challenge now is how to kill these celestial demons in a legitimate and legal way without arousing suspicion from Hell.
Fang Xiu frowned deeply. During his time in hell, he had racked his brains to find food.
Several days later, Fang Xiu arrived at the border of Hell, where two second-rank and five third-rank Heavenly Demon Gods were already waiting.
Fang Xiu spread his enormous golden wings and flew down from the sky, hovering above the demons. He was clad in dark gold armor, his arms crossed over his chest, looking down at the demons from his high vantage point.
He glanced around, completely ignoring the cold, angry gazes of the demons, and nodded in satisfaction.
Today's meal was pretty good.
Those two second-grade Heavenly Demon Gods appeared to be quite powerful. One of them was like a stone statue, as if its body was entirely made of stone. Its face was ferocious, like a demon, with sharp claws on its hands and a pair of stone wings on its back.
Through years of communication with the Heavenly Demon God in the Inner World, he had become intimately familiar with Hell, even more so than the locals themselves.
At a glance, he recognized that this stone statue-like second-rank Heavenly Demon God came from the Gargoyle clan, a clan known for its powerful physique.
The other figure is an old woman, holding a withered wooden cane. Her hunched body is hidden under a wide black robe, and her face cannot be seen. The only thing exposed is her pair of wrinkled hands that look like chicken claws.
A witch who has fallen to hell can also be called a sorceress.
As for the remaining five third-rank beings, they were two fallen angels and three hell knights, not worth mentioning. Fang Xiu glanced at them and ignored them.
"Let's go," Fang Xiu ordered the demons, making it seem as if he were the leader of this operation.
His golden wings fluttered, and his figure slowly flew away into the distance.
The demons looked extremely grim. They hadn't expected that this Great Sage of Chaos was truly as arrogant and conceited as the rumors suggested.
It's one thing to be late, but when you arrive, instead of showing any remorse, you start giving orders?
"It seems that this Roc Demon King doesn't take us seriously at all," the gargoyle sneered.
"We've offended Lord Lucifer; he won't live long. There's no need to hold a grudge against the dead." A deep, hoarse voice came from beneath the wide black robe: "This mission will directly confront a second-rank righteous god of the Supreme Heaven; some unexpected events are inevitable."
Upon hearing this, the group laughed silently, their eyes filled with icy coldness.
