Chapter 831: Report of Victory from the Myriad Beasts Mountain Pass (I)

The white light from the Tower of Eternity grew brighter and brighter and more and more unstable. It seemed to flicker with sparks.

Cai’er knew the divine tool had reached its limit. If this continued, the Tower of Eternity would probably be destroyed even if she could continue. The divine tool was the only keepsake that Holy Necromancer, Slumbering Calamity Elux had given to her.

Raising the Sickle of the God of Death high into the air, a pure-white ring of light expanded. At the same time, Cai’er flapped her spiritual wings and flew off into the distance with lightning speed. After lasting for a few more seconds, the Tower of Eternity also turned into a streak of light that followed Cai’er.

When Cai’er emitted the white ring of light, all of the human powerhouses stopped and quickly fled into the distance, returning to the Southeastern Fort.

Over ten figures charged out at the same time, but the demon gods really were in a bad shape. They were covered in dust.

The Tower of Eternity possessed a tremendous amount of power of purification and weight. When they attacked the tower with their full strength, the overly dense elemental power in the tower lashed them as well. Now that they had emerged after so much difficulty, all of their heads spun. It was also at this moment that a pure-white lotus fell down from the air.

When the demon gods recovered from being surprised and used great power of their demon god pillars to control the situation, they felt like crying instead.

It was just too miserable..

Across the entire encampment, there were only a handful of tents that remained standing. Corpses were littered everywhere as powerful elemental storms of magic constantly wreaked havoc there. Their provisions had been burned to a crisp. It was a demon army of over three hundred thousand, but they had become scattered without any unity at all. The entire encampment that stretched several dozen kilometers was a wreck. The losses were innumerable.

After a simple discussion, the demon gods reached a mutual agreement. They took action together and dealt with the conflict among the Fiends. They appointed a Fiend King as the successor of the Demon God of Death, who then quickly retreated with the Demon God of Death’s demon god pillar with them.

They had to retreat. After the setback that night, their less then a third of their mighty army of five hundred thousand remained. Most importantly, they had lost all of their morale as well. The Southeastern Fort possessed over thirty ninth step powerhouses with over a dozen of them being able to wield domains. That was more than what they had. How were they supposed to continue the battle like this?

Cai’er was especially terrifying. What if she launched a sneak attack against them again? What were they supposed to do?

There was only one way to avoid being sealed by the Tower of Eternity, which was to scattered the demon god pillars. However, separating them would lead to other problems. Would they be defeated individually? Were any of them bold enough to separate from the group?

In the end, the demon gods decided to retreat back to the Nareiks Province and wait for the Demon God Emperor’s orders. As they regrouped, they would also find a way to resupply their provisions. The food that an army of several hundred thousand could get through in a day was an astronomical amount.

Afterwards, the Southeastern Fort carried out the logistics for the aftermath of this battle. When the demon army retreated, they only had twenty-seven thousand troops remaining, with many of them injured. They had basically suffered an overwhelming defeat at the hands of the Southeastern Fort. The only pity was that they had only managed to kill two demon gods. However, the threat that the Southeastern Fort was under was completely nullified now. Even if the demon army returned, it would be very difficult for them to breach the Southeastern Fort with the combination of the six vocations. The morale in the fort had reached an unprecedented high as well. With sufficient rest, they would be able to recover their peak condition very soon and continue protecting this mountain pass.

However, Cai’er had no time to rest. After the sneak attack at night, she silently left with the twelve eternal heroes, directly flying to the Myriad Beasts Mountain Pass in the south.

The battle at the Myriad Beasts Mountain Pass had already started. There were no magical traps there, however.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, but the demon encampment outside the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass remained quiet.

“Is there any news from Samigina and Marbas?” The Demon God Emperor summoned the Moon Demon God Agares and the Star Demon God Vassago in his tent.

Agares replied politely, “According from the news last time, Samigina did not let his army rest when he arrived at the Southeastern Fort and immediately launched an attack. According to the reports of the demon gods there, it’s been a day since the battle’s begun. The Fiends have yet to enter the battle. They’re currently in a stalemate with the Southeastern Fort. The powerhouses in the Southeastern Fort had surpassed our estimates. A divine tool wielding marksman has managed to kill Gaap is a surprise attack. Gaap’s fallen in battle.”

“What?” The Demon God Emperor was surprised, “Gaap’s fallen in battle?”

“Yes. And according to the news from the front lines, Gaap was sniped before he could properly support the army on the battlefield,” Agares did not let any personal feelings influence his report, but anyone could tell that he was displeased with Gaap and Samigina.

“What else is there?” The Demon God Emperor did his best to hold back his fury. While the Arcane Demon God Gaap possessed lacklustre battle prowess, his abilities for group support were known as the best among the demons. He could play such a great role on the battlefield that he could even rival Samigina. The Demon God Emperor had purposefully sent him to attack the Southeastern Fort, but he never expected him to die before making an impact on the battlefield.

Agares said politely, “There hasn’t been any news since. We should receive accurate news tonight. Marbas and Valefor have yet to send any news from the Myriad Beasts Mountain Pass, but according to the news last time, they already begun fighting. By now, the battle at the Southeastern Fort should have reached a conclusion. If Marbas and Valefor move fast enough, their battle should be wrapping up as well.”

Vassago said coldly, “Your majesty, Samigina seems to have gone a little overboard. It’s bad for unity. If he really does succeed in making it into the human’s territory, the Fiend Clan might...”

He stopped there and did not continue. Ever since he used the Prophecy of Life, Vassago had become especially quiet and much colder. He rarely spoke.

The Demon God Emperor squinted his eyes and looked at Agares, “Speed up the delivery of information.”

“Yes.”

The Demon God Emperor stood up slowly, “It’s already been three days. Looks like it’s time for us to pay a visit to Long Haochen. I think he’s also received news from the Southeastern Fort and Myriad Beasts Mountain Pass.”

Agares said, “Your majesty, shouldn’t we wait a little longer for the news from the front lines? It’ll take twelve hours at most before the next report arrives.”

The Demon God Emperor pondered the suggestion and said, “Fine. Let’s wait for Samigina and Marbas’ reports of success.” The Demon God Emperor seemed to have ignored Vassago’s objection earlier, while Vassago said nothing more.

The situation of the front lines was extremely important. If both armies made it into the Temple Union, then the Demon God Emperor would be in the absolute position to choose what to do. If they failed to breach the mountain passes, then the Demon God Emperor would have to change his battle tactics against the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass.
