"Boom!" A gigantic beast claw emerged from the spatial rift, surrounded by black spatial rifts. Countless dark creatures and their kin were crushed under this giant claw.
"Roar! Get lost!" the red dragon roared, spitting a powerful breath at the beast's claw. The intense heat caused the claw to retract, leaving a large charred patch.
"Roar!!!" A painful roar seemed to echo from the source of darkness, and the beast's claws swung continuously in the starry sky, but did not retreat.
Whether they were dark creatures, the lord's retinue, or native beings of the Demon Flame Plane, all living beings within the giant beast's attack range were wiped out. None survived the attack of the eighth-order giant claw, and a brief vacuum even appeared near the spatial rift.
Ye Jun and the others, along with the Primordial Star, were far away and protected by the Red Dragon and others, so they were not greatly affected, but they were still shocked by this scene.
The power of the eighth-tier creature reawakened Ye Chen's memories. Under such powerful beast claws, he had no power to resist and could only be mercilessly crushed like an ant.
"Boom!" At this moment, another beast claw emerged from the spatial rift. The entire space seemed unable to withstand this powerful force, and spatial rifts tore open all around. Many survivors could be torn apart by the newly formed spatial rifts if they were not careful.
Upon seeing the second beast claw, not only Ye Chen and the others, but even the Red Dragon and the Orc True God were visibly shaken. The opponent's strength was no less than theirs, and with both beast claws extended, the opponent was already able to unleash most of its techniques.
The two of them didn't care; defeating the two beast claws was definitely not a problem. However, the surrounding lords' families and the creatures of the Demon Flame Plane were a different story. It would certainly cause a large number of casualties, which would be an unbearable loss for many lords.
And that's not all. The force of the two beast claws reaching out made the surrounding space almost unbearable, and the spatial rift was torn even wider. More powerful auras spread out from the spatial rift, and it could even be seen that more high-level dark creatures were waiting to emerge from the spatial rift.
"Roar!" The beast's roar echoed in the starry sky. The two huge beast claws stopped attacking indiscriminately and instead pried at the spatial rift that trapped them, trying to tear it open.
Having reached the eighth level, simple spatial rifts can hardly harm them anymore. Only spatial spells imbued with power can truly hurt them. Therefore, the spatial rifts that were terrifying to Ye Chen and his companions were easily torn apart like rags in front of these giant claws. What truly prevented them from passing was the will of the entire Demon Flame Plane. However, as time passed and many living beings perished, the will of the plane had become extremely fragile.
"Get back here!" the red dragon roared, spewing out an even larger dragon breath. However, this time the opponent did not choose to withstand the attack head-on. A terrifying black flame shot out from the spatial rift, blocking the red dragon's attack.
"Roar!" Between its claws, a huge dragon head emerged from the spatial rift. However, it seemed to be blocked by space, and the dragon head could not truly emerge. Only a pair of cold, scarlet vertical pupils emerged, and its indifferent gaze swept over the crowd, as if it were not looking at them, but at a pile of dead objects.
"It's a dragon? And an eighth-order dragon at that!" Ye Chen and the others were shocked. It was not easy for a dragon to reach the eighth order, let alone a black dragon that had fallen into darkness. What kind of dark circumstances did it encounter in its life that could cause a true god to fall?
A heavy weight settled over everyone's hearts. The myriad realms were vast and boundless; how many more black dragons had fallen into darkness? No one knew how many powerful beings had utterly succumbed to the darkness…
The black dragon's gaze chilled Ye Chen and the others to the bone. The gaze of an eighth-order true god was not something ordinary people could withstand. Even with the red dragon and the orc blocking their way, the terrifying aura still made many low- and mid-level beings tremble, unable to take any action.
"Wait, its gaze? It seems to be looking at me?" Ye Chen was suddenly startled. Through the vast starry sky, he clearly sensed that the other party was looking in his direction. This discovery immediately made him feel a chill rise from his back.
"Roar!" As it turned out, Ye Chen's guess was correct. After spotting Ye Chen, the black dragon stopped and its huge claws crossed space and grabbed at him, its target clear and without any doubt.
"Damn it! Retreat! Retreat now!" Ye Chen felt like his soul was about to leave his body. His will to survive made him shout frantically. All his kin quickly retreated back to their territory, and the entire Primordial Star was retreating at breakneck speed.
However, no matter how fast he was, he couldn't outrun the opponent's true god-level claws, which directly crossed the endless void and appeared next to Ye Chen's territory, reaching out to grab the Primordial Star.
This scene caught both the red dragon and the orc god off guard. When the orc tried to stop him, another snake tail emerged from the source of darkness and lashed out at him.
The serpent's tail, carrying immense power, forced the orc god to desperately try to stop it, while the red dragon was blocked by another beast claw, making it difficult to break through for a time.
"No!" Hua Xiyu roared, but the huge beast claws had already grabbed the entire Primordial Star and slowly dragged it into the spatial rift that had just been torn open. Apart from Ye Jun and Zhulong, who rushed back immediately, no one had time to rescue them.
"Stay here!" The red dragon roared angrily after being blocked once, and charged toward the giant claw that had reappeared outside the source of darkness. However, the beast no longer wanted to fight and quickly retreated back into the spatial rift.
The red dragon crashed into the spatial rift, tearing the already crumbling rift even wider. Despite its furious roars, it dared not step into the source of darkness, for once inside, it would never be able to escape.
"It's over!" Hua Xiyu and the others stared blankly at the direction of the spatial rift. Ye Chen and his territory were dragged in without any suspense. To this day, no one who has stepped into the dark world has ever been heard of coming out alive!
"Damn it! Kill!" Terella's eyes widened in fury at the sight, and she roared with the people of the Demon Flame Plane as they launched an attack on the remaining dark creatures.
However, no more dark creatures emerged from the spatial rift at this moment. The remaining dark creatures had been almost wiped out by the previous sweep. The lords watched as the Demon Flame group slaughtered all the dark creatures before they came to their senses.
"Let's go! Let's repair the spatial rift!" Hua Xiyu said with tears in her eyes. There were no dark creatures around at the moment, and it would be a waste not to repair the spatial rift. Although Ye Chen was gone, it would be good if they could save the Demon Flame Plane.
