"There's no need to rush."
A deep gleam flashed through the Annihilation Demon Ancestor's eyes. "Forcing our way through the world barrier would cost too much. Since the other side wants a hundred years to marshal their forces, we shall give them a hundred years."
"We can use those hundred years to mobilize every Ten-Thousand-Demon Blood Sacrifice Formation in the Nine Abysses and gather three thousand Hunyuan Demon Sovereigns. Then we will sweep through them with absolute power!"
"I will make that world understand that, before overwhelming reserves of power, all resistance is futile!"
The Annihilation Demon Ancestor's words thundered through the Great Hall. The demons below were instantly fired up and roared in unison.
However.
Just as battle fervor surged throughout the temple and the demons clamored for war.
The space throughout the Great Hall, along with the three lofty Heavenly Dao level Demon Ancestors, suddenly froze without any warning!
The entire Heavenly Demon Temple fell into an utterly uncanny state of stillness.
It was not because any formation had been activated, nor because someone had cast a secret immobilization technique.
Rather, the laws of the entire Demon Realm had, in that instant, been forcibly rewritten by an unreasonable, supreme power.
The tens of millions of vengeful souls behind the Soul-Devouring Demon Ancestor had their mouths wide open, their pallid faces frozen in space, unable to make the slightest sound.
The pitch-black demonic flames dancing on the Myriad Tribulations Demon Ancestor's fingertips froze into a deathly still flower, unable to release even a trace of heat.
Standing before the central throne, about to issue his commands, the Annihilation Demon Ancestor's muscles tensed to their utmost limit. His gray-white pupils contracted sharply, and he felt as though a boundless world of chaos had pinned him in place.
What was happening?!
