Chapter 202
"Strange, calculating the time, someone should have come out by now, right?"
"Exactly! After the Reincarnation Pool ends, the true Ascending Deity Mountain should shrink, and they should emerge very quickly!"
"It’s fine, let’s wait a bit longer, there’s no rush."
Although the elders were slightly puzzled, they were not overly concerned.
There was no danger within the Deity Secret Realm, furthermore, there could not be any malicious intruders.
The secret realm restricted entry by cultivation level, anyone above the Deity Realm was forbidden from entering, with the sole exception of Dao Children who achieved breakthroughs inside.
Even if one or two individuals with ill intentions slipped in, they would simply be slaughtered by the newly ascended Dao Children, they could not possibly stir up any real trouble.
At the summit of the Deity Reincarnation Pool, countless shattered corpses lay scattered across the ground, fresh blood flowed into the Reincarnation Pools, dyeing the golden waters a horrific crimson.
Aeris, clutching his empty shoulder, slowly retreated under the cover of Gabriel and Amber.
The three of them had awakened at roughly the same time, the moment they encountered danger, they immediately banded together to fight back, however, facing three opponents at once, Aeris’s arm had still been shattered to pieces.
It was only thanks to their exceptional strength that they survived, had it been any ordinary Dao Child, they would have already perished, their Dao extinguished, just like the corpses littering the ground.
"hahaha... These Dao Children are quite formidable, to be able to fend off my sneak attack right after stepping into the Heaven and Earth Deity Realm!" Among the three cloaked figures, the leader let out a hoarse, sinister laugh.
"You are from the Demon Race?! How did you get in here?!" Gabriel furrowed his brows tightly, although the opponents possessed spiritual treasures to mask their demonic qi, the overwhelming demonic aura they emitted while executing their divine abilities could not be hidden.
What puzzled them even more was the strength of these intruders, the weakest among the three was at the Fourth Heaven of the Deity Realm, while the other two were at the Fifth Heaven, experts of this level absolutely should not have been able to enter the Deity Secret Realm.
"Why should I explain anything to dead men? You won’t live to..." The cloaked leader suddenly paused, condensing demonic qi in his hand, he blasted a strike into the sky above.
BOOM! A loud explosion rang out as radiant light burst through the air.
Two figures slowly descended. It was John, dressed in a green robe, and Soren, entirely in white. Both had awakened from their dream reincarnations, officially stepping into the Heaven and Earth Deity Realm.
Seeing them appear, Gabriel and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
Although they did not particularly like the personalities of these two, their strength was undeniably recognized.
With their addition, the five of them might just be able to hold out against the three Demons until the clan elders outside realized something was wrong and came to their rescue.
Win against them? That was impossible.
In the Deity Realm, every single heaven represented a massive chasm in power, even for peerless geniuses like them, fighting someone one heaven higher might result in a stalemate at best, but fighting someone even higher? Just protecting themselves would be a struggle.
The opponents consisted of two Fifth Heaven and one Fourth Heaven Deity, there was absolutely no chance of winning, Aeris was the best example, his arm had been completely shattered in a single exchange.
John and Soren joined the group, their eyes filled with intense gravity, looking at the blood and corpses covering the ground, the situation was immediately clear, aside from them and a few pools where individuals had not yet awakened, almost everyone else was dead.
The situation was catastrophically dire.
These victims were the core future powerhouses of the various major clans, all slaughtered here, the clans were about to face a generational gap, a severe crisis of succession.
In the midst of the Heaven and Earth Upheaval, this was an unimaginably heavy blow.
...
"Almost everyone is gathered now, excellent. It’s time to give the Heavenly Void Mystic Realm a little shock, they’ve been comfortable for far too long, they must have forgotten what pain feels like!"
The cloaked leader looked at the five geniuses huddled together and gave a wicked smirk, he pulled a mirror-like spiritual treasure from his robes and hurled it into the sky.
Radiant light swirled across the mirror, projecting a massive light screen, the scene outside the secret realm appeared before the five youths.
The five were momentarily stunned, what is going on?
But as they wondered, the faces of the people on the light screen turned deathly pale, countless individuals outside collapsed to the ground in sheer despair.
"Dao Child! My Ash Clan’s Dao Children are all dead!"
"Dao Child..., Dao Child..., Dao Child... all dead..."
"How could this be?! How is this possible?! I refuse to believe it!"
"Dao Child Aeris actually lost an arm!"
The horrified screams from outside reached the ears of the five youths, they understood instantly, this mirror allowed two-way audio and visual communication between the inside and outside of the secret realm.
"Hahaha! Tremble in fear, Heavenly Void Mystic Realm! Do you like this little gift I brought for you?!"
The cloaked leader suddenly tore off his hood, revealing a pair of horns atop his head, reddish skin, and sharp fangs protruding from his mouth.
The crowd outside was stricken with absolute terror.
The Demon Race! It was actually the Demon Race! How did the Demon Race infiltrate the Heavenly Void Mystic Realm?! And how did they enter the Deity Secret Realm?!
Their Dao Children... they were all dead!
The elders of every clan felt as if their eyes were spitting fire, their hearts consumed by boundless rage, those corpses on the ground were the chosen geniuses they had painstakingly nurtured for years, and they had all been slaughtered just like that.
"What exactly are you trying to do?! Whatever your objective is, we can talk this out!" the Vesper Clan Elder asked anxiously.
Although Aeris had already lost an arm, as long as he did not lose his life, there were still methods to regenerate it.
The cloaked leader burst into maniacal, wildly excited laughter. "hahaha... What objective could I possibly have? To kill people, of course!"
