Chapter 912 A Stepping Stone to Fame
At this time, no one dared to look into Ice Demon’s eyes.
The men and masters from all sides backed away one after another. They didn’t even dare to approach the Black Armored Army. They at once kept a distance from the men of the God’s Palace.
They were invited by God’s Palace to come and help. On the one hand, they wanted to please God’s Palace and to show their loyalty; on the other hand, they wanted to take advantage of the situation and to fish in troubled waters. If they could kill the Eldest Divine Prince, they could have a meteoric rise. But at this time, they were afraid of approaching the Black Armored Army. They wanted to avoid being misunderstood by Ice Demon as members of God’s Palace. From what had happened before, Ice Demon was strongly hostile to the people of God’s Palace.
Even the five God Realm Masters had suffered a crushing defeat. Who would dare to become Ice Demon’s enemy?
The God of War of Mysterious Frost in the Northern Region glanced around and had no intention of fighting. His eyes fell on the five God Realm Masters who had almost lost the ability to resist. He said indifferently, “Considering that it’s not easy to cultivate, I’ll spare your lives this time. You can go.”
The five God Realm Masters could only sigh and retreat when they heard this.
The God Realm Master in the fiery armor with a broken arm was the most seriously injured. He couldn’t even stand still in the void. Almost all his Power of the Origin had been consumed. Today’s defeat was the most painful one he had ever suffered since he entered the God Realm. He recalled that in the Ice and Snow Tao, he was like a weak ant that was defeated by Ice Demon with one palm. That kind of undefendable terrible power and the horror of brushing shoulders with Death made him feel as if he were in another life.
He had never felt his martial arts willpower so decadent before.
This defeat suddenly made him disinterested in everything.
“Your Highness, please tell the God Emperor that Zhi Gaoge has suffered a crushing defeat today. He is seriously injured and his strength was greatly reduced. He needs to cultivate in seclusion. He no longer has the strength to fight for the God Emperor. Nor does he have the face to follow him. He will leave and might never meet the God Emperor again…” The God Realm Master in the fiery armor with a broken arm cupped his hands to the Tenth Divine Prince with a dejected look. Before the Tenth Divine Prince could persuade him to stay, he had directly turned into a stream of flowing light and had disappeared into the void in the distance.
The other four God Realm Masters also looked disinterested in everything.
For proud people like them, today’s defeat was no different from death.
For countless years, they had been favored by fate and had been the center of attention with halos. They were supreme beings in the world. Although it was not unacceptable for them to be defeated, this time they were defeated almost without any power to fight back. It made them reevaluate themselves.
The four God Realm Masters cupped their hands to say goodbye to the Tenth Divine Prince and left the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
The Tenth Divine Prince had slightly recovered from his injuries. He had changed into a set of golden armor and regained some of his elegant demeanor. However, at this time, he was at a loss again. Seeing the five God Realm Masters leave resolutely, he waved his hand, but he did not know what to say…
These five God Realm Masters were also a force that could not be ignored for God’s Palace. Today the God’s Palace had lost them. If he went back, he would definitely be punished by the God Emperor. His painstaking efforts over the years might be in vain. It would be extremely difficult to gain the trust of the God Emperor again.
The Tenth Divine Prince was filled with hatred, but at this time, he did not dare to do anything to Ice Demon, the culprit.
That was not someone that he could afford to offend.
At a loss, the Tenth Divine Prince looked around. Finally, he suddenly realized something. His eyes lit up and fell on Ding Tong in the distance.
“Yes, all the actions and military operations were arranged by Ding Tong, the God Emperor’s favorite. I am only under his command. Even if the God Emperor wants to punish someone for this, Ding Tong will bear the responsibility. What’s more, with the demon-like Ding Tong here, maybe we won’t lose today’s battle.”
There was a stir in the Tenth Divine Prince’s heart.
Only he knew how terrifying his nephew was.
For more than ten years, as long as Ding Tong wanted to do something, he had never failed. As long as it was a plan made by him, it had never failed. Every time, he would set up many backup plans. When the enemy thought that he had the upper hand, he would suddenly give him a heavy blow and completely destroy the enemy’s hope.
This time, Ding Tong must have backup plans.
Thinking of this, the Tenth Divine Prince suddenly became confident.
Almost at the same time—
“Enough!”
Ding Tong, who was covered in golden chaotic mist, suddenly shouted. He flashed and disappeared. In the next moment, he appeared thousands of meters away. He was now at a great distance from Ding Shengtan. At the same time, a mist like a Space-Time Wall appeared in front of him, blocking everything.
“I’ve long known that you have been colluding with the reincarnated demon stars. This is the case. Hahahaha, now that Ice Demon and Buddha Demon have both appeared, Sky Demon should come out with them. Today, I can send you reincarnated demon stars, who are courting death, to hell together,” said Ding Tong proudly.
In his eyes, the golden mist was gradually retracted, and the domain of pupil radiance around him disappeared. However, the Big Dipper in his pupils was running in an even stranger way, as if it was developing something terrible. An extremely dangerous aura was slowly emitted from his body.
“Amitabha, young almsgiver, you have a deep obsession but you don’t even know that you have fallen into the Devil’s Path. You are sewing somebody else’s trousseau. How lamentable!” Lord Buddha from the Great Leiyin Monastery sighed and chanted deeply Buddha’s name.
The God of War of Mysterious Frost in the Northern Region was standing still in the void. His clothes were as white as snow. He just shook his head slightly and looked at Ding Tong with a scornful look.
Ding Shengtan appeared between Lord Buddha from the Great Leiyin Monastery and the God of War of Mysterious Frost in the Northern Region.
“Back then, you stole Hao’s bloodline. Today, I won’t kill you. I’ll only take your pupils and let you know how Hao felt at that time.” Ding Shengtan’s eyes were full of killing intent like a sharp sword. He was no longer as calm as before. His aura instantly became aggressive. Obviously, he was really angry because of Ding Tong’s repeated provocation.
Ding Tong laughed loudly and said, “Well? Are you angry? I thought you were so decadent that you didn’t know how to be angry. However, an angry man without strength is the most pitiful and the saddest. I’ve carefully chosen today as a great opportunity to make a name for myself. Ding Shengtan, Ice Demon, and Buddha Demon, you can fight me together. You three can barely be my stepping stones before I rise to fame.”
He was going to fight the three of them.
In the distance, Ding Hao was shocked. Previously, his father could suppress Ding Tong alone. But now, why was Ding Tong so confident? He was so arrogant that he wanted to fight the three of them… Did he have any other trump cards?
The Tenth Divine Prince’s eyes lit up.
Ding Tong’s unusual confidence reassured him a little.
As soon as he raised his hand, the drums on the surrounding black warships beat like thunder and the drumbeats were sonorous between heaven and earth, making people’s hearts race. Black air visible to the naked eye rose from the dense Black Armored Army which looked like a demon army. Countless soldiers of the Black Armored Army were roaring, and the overwhelming sound waves swept in all directions like raging waves.
This was a very terrifying aura.
Under the surge of such momentum, Ding Tong stood in the middle of the sky and his clothes fluttered. Black light streams swirled around him as if he were turning into a black hole. Two huge wings appeared on his left and right sides. If one looked carefully, he could see that they were shadows of a saber and a sword. Each of them was thousands of meters long and appeared on his back like a giant wing.
He raised his head and slowly stretched out his arms.
Hum! Hum! Hum!
Ring! Ring! Ring!
Within a radius of hundreds of miles, all the weapons, including swords, sabers, axes, spears, bolas, shields, and armors, were automatically vibrating. Many people found that they were almost unable to control their weapons. Countless swords, sabers, and spears broke away from their owners’ control and flew away on their own, densely floating in the air.
Sabers, swords, and other weapons all over the sky were worshiping the despot-like man in the middle of the sky like the humblest officials.
An indescribably ruthless and horrifying aura emitted from Ding Tong’s body.
The aura was still rising as if it would never end.
In the blink of an eye, the power released by Ding Tong had far exceeded his previous limit. Streaks of black flowing light were like endless tentacles. Soon the sky within a radius of hundreds of miles completely darkened as if it were suddenly midnight. Or it looked as if the eternal darkness were ruling the world. Ding Tong was the center of the darkness.
Fear, despair, anger, grief, sorrow, madness…
In the darkness, all kinds of negative emotions of despair in the depths of human nature suddenly broke out, like a plague, rising in everyone’s hearts without any cause.
Everything had become gruesome in the darkness.
The Black Armored Army all over the sky were beating giant drums and the soldiers were roaring. It looked as if countless demons were dancing wildly and cheering for the arrival of Ding Tong, the Demon King.
The masters of the surrounding aristocratic families, sects, and forces all turned pale and were trembling at this sight.
“Oh my God, can a man’s strength really be so powerful? What kind of strength is this…”
“That young man named Ding Tong… Has he entered the Immortal Demon realm?”
“Th-this… There can be a man in God’s Palace, whose level is so high. Not even the God Emperor should be this powerful, right? He is truly invincible!”
“Could Ding Tong be a reincarnated Immortal Demon?”
Countless shocking thoughts emerged in countless people’s minds. It was too terrifying. Even those God Realm Masters could not help but yield and tremble at this moment in the face of Ding Tong who looked like a descending Devil. It seemed that there had never been such a level of power on the Land of Divine Grace.
“Oh no, there is such a peerless genius on the Eastern Continent.” A master of the Ceroman Clan sighed in his heart. It was bad news for the other races on the Land of Divine Grace that such a Devil had appeared in the Human Clan.
