Cultivating with Bragging System-Chapter 381 - 218: Ye Guhong: Your Majesty, Is It You? (6300 words)_2
The once-stalemated balance of power tipped in an instant, creating an overwhelming advantage. The demons were beaten into a pathetic retreat, crying for their parents as they fled for their lives. A huge number of the Demon Race died under the Saints’ barrage of firepower, obliterated without a trace.
They had been pent up in the Holy Realm for too many years. With their fury at its peak, they desperately needed an outlet. The cries of these demons were music to their ears, a most suitable choice!
「Meanwhile, within the seal of Demon Sea Island.」
Countless Demon Race members charged at the fissures, their eyes blood-red as they fearlessly risked their lives.
"Charge, brothers! Once we break through here, a bright future awaits us! Break the seal today, become a Demon Emperor tomorrow! JEJEJE..." a winged demon expert roared, encouraging the horde from above.
Hearing this, the demons below charged even more fiercely. Seemingly envisioning that bright future, they too let out vicious laughter, "JEJEJE..."
"What are you laughing at?" Just then, an incredibly terrifying ocean of Demonic Qi emerged.
Out of this sea of Demonic Qi, a humanoid demon clad in scale armor, with a tail like a steel whip, slowly walked forth, its oppressive aura extreme.
The demons immediately submitted. "Greetings, Lord Sakuya!"
"Hmph!" Lord Sakuya’s aura was terrifying beyond compare as he stood proudly in the void. He glanced at the demon who had just been rallying the others and said with displeasure, "You don’t even know how to properly inspire morale. A Demon Emperor? Is that something just anyone can become? Who would believe such nonsense?"
He then turned his head to look down at the mass of demons and spread his arms wide. "My warriors, the world of the Human Race is right before us! Seize it, and you will be the heroes of our race! Do not fear death; death is not to be feared. Though you are the lowliest of Foreign Demons, you must still have aspirations and ambition... This is your opportunity, perhaps the only one in your lifetime! If you are to die, die gloriously! The first Chapter of our Demon Race’s conquest of this realm will be written by you!"
With these words, the horde seethed with excitement.
The winged demon expert, seeing this, laughed heartily. "The Lord is right! JEJEJE..."
He had barely let out a chuckle when he saw Lord Sakuya glance over indifferently.
He quickly silenced his laughter, grinning obsequiously as he said, "Please, you first!"
Lord Sakuya snorted lightly. "Clueless." He then spread his arms wide. "Let us shout for the glory of our race, which is just within reach! JEJEJE..."
"JEJEJE..."
"JEJEJE..."
"JEJEJE..."
The horde of demons burst into mad laughter, becoming even more fearless as they charged the seal.
"If we are to die, let us die gloriously! JEJEJE..." One of the demons rushed forward.
BOOM! BOOM!
The seal pulsed with runes, its power terrifying, and instantly obliterated him, tearing him to pieces.
Yet, a large number of demons pressed on relentlessly, like a tide flooding the fissures.
"Once this annoying seal is torn apart, it will be the moment for our race to see the light of day again..." Lord Sakuya watched this scene with satisfaction.
He spread his wings, their Demon Patterns glowing as his Demonic Qi billowed like an ocean. Those wings were on par with a Demon Treasure and possessed strange, divine powers. Where their light reached, the fighting spirit of all demons surged, their strength doubling as they fearlessly continued their charge. They also continuously shot out beams of Demonic Light, bombarding the fissures and making the entire world tremble.
"The Human Race is weak. They suffered heavy losses in the battle of yore and surely couldn’t have recovered so quickly. This time, victory will definitely be ours! Charge for me!" he continued to shout, inspiring morale.
The fissure had already been breached once by a demonic sovereign. The runes were dim and fragile. However, the Human Race’s experts had managed to arrive and reseal it at a great cost. Still, the new seal was far weaker than the original. With a vast number of fearless demons sacrificing themselves, using their lives to wear it down, it was only a matter of time before they broke through.
Meanwhile, the Human Race experts outside were spending Mana to forcibly hold the seal’s cracks together. They also had to deal with the demons that had already escaped. Their attention was divided, and the drain on their power must have been immense. They couldn’t hold on for much longer. He could feel the resistance from the outside getting weaker and weaker. He was therefore confident, as everything was proceeding according to his calculations.
Just then, a demon expert came running frantically, his expression filled with panic. "Something terrible has happened, Lord Sakuya!"
"Making a fuss over nothing. What is it?" Lord Sakuya glanced at him with indifference.
"Outside! The number of Human Race experts has surged! Hundreds of Human Saints have suddenly appeared! Our brothers can’t hold them back!" the demon expert screamed.
"What did you say?" Lord Sakuya’s eyes widened, his Demonic Qi fluctuating wildly in disbelief.
"Hundreds of Saints!"
"How many Saints?"
"Hundreds!"
"Hundreds of what?"
"...Saints. Pure Human Race Saints, and their strength is immense!" The demon expert’s expression was bizarre. Did the Lord not hear a single word I just said?
"Hundreds of them all came?" Lord Sakuya exclaimed. They were old rivals of the Immortal Alliance of Nanzhou. Having fought countless times, they knew each other’s strengths and weaknesses quite well. Even in the decisive battle back then, the scale was probably about the same, right? But if I remember correctly, didn’t a large number of the Human Race’s experts also die back then? Just like with the Demon Race, many of their experts died or were gravely injured. The few surviving supreme beings were mostly in slumber. Even if they awakened, they’d still be quite weak. How many years has it been? How could the Human Race have recovered so quickly? Hundreds... All one hundred and eight Immortal Sects must have brought out their entire hidden reserves, right? Are they really that sensitive? According to plan, this is just the prelude!
"Yes, all of them!" the demon expert confirmed.
Sakuya panicked. The situation was spiraling out of control, not developing according to their plans at all. This is bad, this is bad! What are we going to do?
The nearby demon expert’s face twitched. You’re asking us? Are we the lord, or are you?
