Sovereign Hong Ying merely gave the order for the Demon Emperors in the vicinity to delay for as much time as possible, so that they could better veil their schemes in Mu Long Country.
After covering up the anomalies in Mu Long Country, whether to fight or retreat in this region would be determined by how much manpower and resources Immortal Country was willing to invest here.
While Emperor Qian Yan was deploying troops and commanding his Devil followers on how to hold out against the army of the Holy Dynasty, Gu Jinlai’s figure descended like a Meteor Star, fiercely crashing down upon the mountains surrounded by Devils.
Before descending, he had already manifested his 490-meter True Body.
Thanks to the enhancement of the Great Sun Eternal Method, what was once a Burt Form of 490-meter True Body for him could now be used as a regular state.
Maintaining this form, coupled with the acceleration due to gravity, his whole being was like a nearly one-mile-wide dense Star, colliding fiercely with the Earth at speeds tens of times the speed of sound. The energy released in that instant razed the core area surrounded by Devils to the ground.
Bright light coupled with Fierce Flames spread outwards at supersonic speeds. Ordinary Devils and even Great Demons within tens of miles were ground to ashes without suspense by the high temperatures and shockwaves. In the most central area spanning a dozen miles, even Demon Kings and Demon Emperors perished on the spot.
The few Demon Emperors who received special attention from Gu Jinlai didn’t even have the chance to scream before they were ground into fine powder under the crushing energy from the impact.
However, the number of Demon Emperors here was far greater than just a few.
There were dozens of them.
But to Gu Jinlai, whether it was a few or dozens, there was no significant difference.
Amidst the flames and dust, he slowly raised his hand, terrifyingly bright white light congregating in his palm, and in the next second, shot out like a Laser Cannon, instantly piercing the bodies of two Demon Emperors in its path, incinerating their Demon Bodies to ash.
South Fire Divine Light.
After annihilating these two Demon Emperors, the Laser Cannon-like South Fire Divine Light didn’t vanish, but instead swept fiercely...
Violent explosions, interspersed with flames that shot up into the sky, illuminated heaven and earth.
Wherever the South Fire Divine Light went, those Demon Emperors who once boasted of leveling cities to seek retribution against the Human Clan were directly turned into charred remains, reduced to ash.
Shouts of terror and unwilling anger filled the Void.
In just under three breaths, Gu Jinlai swept back and forth with the South Fire Divine Light nine times, and none of the dozens of Demon Emperors survived.
After completing these actions, he scanned the surroundings somewhat puzzled, "They’re still not coming out? Or could it be, just as Qiu He said, that the Demon God isn’t here?"
After musing for a moment, he intensified his Child of the Stars status, constantly searching for something.
Soon enough, he had a Perception.
As his legs bent and his strength surged, causing the Earth to collapse, his entire form had leapt into the Void.
The air explosion created by the violent collision of his huge body with the air was like a hurricane, blasting in all directions, its edge even igniting into flames due to the intense friction.
Yet Gu Jinlai paid it no heed.
Leaping nearly a hundred miles, his form once again fiercely crashed down into a canyon.
The moment he landed, a Demon Emperor guarding the area was trampled into a blood mist, its violent shockwaves and hurricanes also flung six Demon Emperors into the air.
While Gu Jinlai remained motionless, six bolts of lightning shot out from within him, striking the six Demon Emperors swept away by the hurricane before they could react, blasting them into charred remains.
At the same time, he crouched down, his right hand supporting himself on the ground, quietly sensing something.
The next moment, the "Gravity" he commanded descended.
A thousand meters ahead of him, a swath of land spanning a thousand meters trembled with a thunderous noise, the soil layer rising up as if this kilometer-wide piece of the Earth was being pulled by an invisible force, separating from the ground and ascending into the sky.
When the massive tract of land was tens of meters above the ground, earth and debris flew in all directions, and nearly one cubic kilometer of soil was continuously stripped away and fell back to the ground. This caused tremors on the surface but gradually revealed a Demon God Body within.
The appearance of this Demon God Body...
"The Netherworld God!?"
Gu Jinlai was taken aback.
Watching the Demon God Body for a while, he finally confirmed it.
Could it actually be a Netherworld God Body that could condense into an incarnation of Demon Lord Cangming!?
At that moment, through the special Perception of the Star Field as a Child of the Stars, he sharply caught two massive lifeforms approaching rapidly in this direction.
Among the two life entities, one was comparable to a Demon God!
Was evidently equivalent to the Peak of Demon Gods!
No, even a Peak Demon God wasn’t an apt description.
If translated into the realm of True Immortals, this was the level of the Strongest True Immortals!
Just as Gu Jinlai sensed these two colossal forms approaching rapidly as if to prevent him from destroying the Netherworld God Body, within the Netherworld God Body, there was also a consciousness reviving at a rapid pace.
Soon, it would transform from a mere consciousness into a complete sentient being, then form an existence akin to an incarnation of consciousness.
"The incarnation of Demon Lord Cangming?"
Gu Jinlai closed his hand in the air, the violent Gravity beginning to compress the Netherworld God Body, quickly causing it to collapse inwards.
At that moment, one of the two rapidly approaching forms, the being so powerful it could be compared to a Supreme Demon God, unleashed a terrifying spiritual pressure. Spanning the remaining thousands of miles of Void between them, it descended and suppressed Gu Jinlai, as if intending to bring his spirit to a standstill.
