Divine King Appears! Netherworld's Great Calamity

On the Divine Mountain, energy surged and a powerful aura swept through the area.

The remaining knights were shocked and enraged, unable to believe what they were seeing.

It was too fast!

It was simply too fast!

Their Eighteen Knights, who had swept across various battlefields without being stopped, had now seen six of their own killed in the blink of an eye.

Each one taken down with a single sword strike!

How was this possible?

Was Lu Chen's cultivation too strong, or was his swordsmanship too monstrous?

The Eighteen Knights had never suffered such a defeat before.

Who would believe it if the story got out?

"Destroy him!"

"Don't duel him, use your secret treasures!"

The remaining twelve knights roared in unison, throwing out a barrage of glowing weapons that rained down on Lu Chen.

Lu Chen's eyes were cold as he watched the few remaining opponents. "If you're using secret treasures, so am I! Let's see who's better!"

He flipped his palm and directly drew the Hell Demon Sword.

With a boom!

The dark, deep demon sword exuded endless malevolent energy, surging like waves, vast and mighty, as if a world of death had appeared, almost dyeing the entire Divine Mountain black.

At the same time.

He activated Tenfold Combat Power.

He stomped his foot, enveloped in terrifying black light, and charged forward like a dragon swimming against the current.

He swung the Hell Demon Sword in his hand, its malevolent energy shaking the universe, its black light crushing the sky. It was like the end of the world as it fiercely cleaved towards them.

Under the pressure of his Tenfold Combat Power and the deterrence of the Hell Demon Sword, the remaining knights all showed a trace of terror.

"What?"

"His strength is terrifying!"

"Everyone, dodge quickly!"

Rumble!

In one exchange, all the weapons they had launched shattered.

Black light surged, covering everything, and endless malevolent energy swept away all resistance.

The remaining twelve knights let out terrified screams under this terrifying aura.

At that moment, they felt as if they were facing a true god.

But Lu Chen gave them no chance, following up with another strike.

"No!"

Boom, boom, boom, boom...

The entire Divine Mountain shook violently, figures flying everywhere, collapsing.

In the blink of an eye, three more had died tragically.

"You keep calling me a bastard, you keep saying you slaughtered here back then. From what I see, you're nothing special. What right do you have to slaughter here? Who were you slaughtering, and who were you killing?"

Lu Chen's voice was cold as he swung the Hell Demon Sword, like the ultimate killing weapon, towards them.

"Form ranks, quickly form ranks!"

"Nine Heavens Star Array!"

The remaining knights all shouted, their bodies glowing as they quickly clustered together, as if they had become one.

Divine light erupted from them, and their auras surged.

It was as if a vast starry sky had appeared, firmly shielding their bodies.

Rumble!

Lu Chen's sword strike caused the entire void to crackle and roar. The terrifying malevolent energy struck the starry sky outside their bodies, the sound deafening, as countless stars flickered in and out of existence.

The remaining nine knights all spat blood, their faces filled with terror, their souls on the verge of scattering.

How could this be?

How could such a person appear in this fallen world!

This strength was almost that of a true god!

Their previous confidence and pride shattered in that instant.

They felt as if they were facing an supreme demon king.

All their pride felt so laughable.

"Why aren't you talking anymore? Let's see how many of my swords you can block?"

Lu Chen slashed down with his sword, but it didn't shatter their Great Array. He immediately followed up with a second, fierce strike.

Boom!

This sword strike landed on them, causing another one to collapse. His body exploded like an egg.

[...Satisfaction Points +!]

At this moment, images of the distant past appeared from the golden light emanating from everyone's bodies.

The scenes in the images were exceptionally brutal.

They were the Eighteen Knights, slaughtering on this Divine Mountain.

Women and children alike died one after another under their Divine Spears and Great Axes.

The youngest child, not even three years old, was impaled on a Divine Spear, eliciting cruel laughter.

Some even urged their mounts to charge wildly, trampling children into meat paste.

Other knights grabbed women by their hair, dragging them around while the women screamed in agony, their scalps ripped out.

These were reenactments of ancient events!

These scenes were originally buried deep within everyone's souls. However, Lu Chen's Hell Demon Sword had impacted them, causing their souls to become unstable and bringing these images to the surface.

A cold glint shot from Lu Chen's eyes.

"So this is the truth of your slaughter, only daring to kill the old, the weak, women, and children... a bunch of trash, all of you die!"

He swung the Hell Demon Sword, emitting a piercing howl, its sound terrifying as he slashed towards them again.

With this sword strike, the terrifying aura of death actually dispersed the light above the Divine Mountain.

As a result, those from the Outer Realm who were preparing to descend, but hadn't yet, could now clearly see the scene below.

Everyone immediately cried out in alarm.

"That's!"

"Good heavens, something's happening below!"

"That's the Eighteen Knights, the Eighteen Knights are being slaughtered!"

"How is that possible? That's Lu Chen, Lu Chen is slaughtering the Eighteen Knights!"

Boom!

"Ah!"

The terrifying and demonic Hell Demon Sword slashed down fiercely, causing the remaining eight knights to spew blood again, their faces filled with terror. This time, three more individuals' bodies collapsed and vanished.

[...Merit Points +]

"No, spare us, Lu Chen, we know we were wrong, please spare me!"

"Lu Chen, spare my life, I don't want to die!"

"Help! Someone save us, Lu Chen is a monster!"

"Someone save us quickly!"

The remaining knights were terrified to the extreme. They continued to maintain the Great Array, shouting towards the sky desperately, their minds completely shattered.

They had arrived full of high spirits, but now they were utterly pathetic and terrified.

They were like sick cats.

Or like pitiful bundles of straw.

The people from the Outer Realm were stunned, filled with dread.

This scene was too bizarre!

Who would have believed that the fearsome Starry Sky Knights would end up like this!

They were begging for mercy in fear?

How was this possible?

"It's over, my young master has also been killed!"

"And my senior brother, my senior sister, they were all dead!"

"How could this happen?"

"Demon King, this Lu Chen is a Demon King!"

Suddenly, everyone from the Outer Realm cried out in terror.

If even the Starry Sky Knights met such an end, could any of their companions who had descended earlier still be alive?

They knew very well how powerful the Starry Sky Knights were.

Eighteen knights!

Eighteen Gods!

A nightmare on many battlefields.

Amidst the fear of the crowd, Lu Chen's Hell Demon Sword once again slashed fiercely at those knights, its terrifying black light even reaching into the Outer Realm.

"Begging for mercy? You only know to beg for mercy now, where did your previous spirit go? Where did the spirit that slaughtered infants and women back then go? A bunch of trash, only knowing how to bully the weak!"

BOOM!

"Ah!"

Three more people screamed and exploded on the spot, their bodies scattering like mist, utterly dead.

Lu Chen's vision was once again filled with a large amount of Merit Points.

The remaining two knights' tears flowed, their faces streaked with snot, crying like children.

Their mounts had already been shattered.

The two were so terrified their faces were contorted.

"Young Hero Lu, let me explain, let me explain, sob sob sob, I'm willing to become your servant..."

"Spare me, spare us..."

"Become my servant? You think you're worthy?"

Lu Chen's expression was icy cold, and endless black light emanated from the Hell Demon Sword, like an ancient monstrous beast awakening, its terrifying aura shaking even the Stars in the Outer Realm.

"Die!"

BOOM!

Another supremely terrifying sword strike, amidst their shrill wails, completely tore apart the Star Array protecting their bodies and shattered their souls.

The unfathomably terrifying killing intent even directly followed the cracks in the ground and was blasted deep into the earth.

With a boom, the entire Divine Mountain trembled violently.

The Dragon Vein deep within the Divine Palace behind them even quivered slightly.

The mysterious figure sleeping within subconsciously twitched a finger.

However, Lu Chen didn't notice any of this.

His eyes were cold as he raised his head and looked towards the sky.

His gaze seemed to pierce through countless miles of void, clearly seeing all the figures there.

The Outer Realm descended into chaos.

Everyone's minds roared, this was like a nightmare.

Everyone's sanity was in disarray.

Lu Chen, whom they had always viewed as a mere clown, was actually such a terrifying powerhouse.

The Starry Sky Eighteen Knights, such a formidable group, had been wiped out by him alone.

In his presence, they could only wail and beg for mercy.

Who could have imagined such a scene?

Moreover!

The ones who had descended earlier were all powerful experts.

Now, they were all gone.

At this moment, even meeting Lu Chen's gaze filled them with dread.

Many people cursed inwardly.

What was Lu Chen's origin? With him guarding below, who would dare to continue?

BOOM!

Suddenly, the entire Outer Realm dimmed, and an incredibly terrifying fluctuation erupted, like monstrous waves crashing against the shore, rumbling and surging towards the people in the Outer Realm.

Everyone trembled and quickly looked back.

They felt as if their bodies were about to become transparent.

Two colossal eyes, as large as planets, manifested not far from them. Their pale golden irises were filled with terrifying pressure that shook heaven and earth.

Their aura was terrifying, cold and merciless.

It was like an supreme ruler awakening.

The terrifying aura made everyone tremble, and they directly knelt down.

"Divine King..."

"Greetings, Divine King!"

Everyone's hearts surged with excitement as they respectfully bowed.

An ancient Divine King had descended.

No one had imagined this.

Because this world was located outside the Outer Realm Battlefield, generally speaking, King-level powerhouses would not appear.

If one did appear, it would mean that the various forces had already reached an agreement behind the scenes.

They were about to make their move officially.

"This desolate land has been reviving too slowly, wasting too much time. I will destroy this place's restrictions so that all parties can descend successfully sooner."

Waves of cold, ruthless voices echoed above the Netherworld.

Everyone could hear them clearly.

All the creatures in the Netherworld trembled uncontrollably.

Under the gaze of those terrifying eyes, their souls felt like they were about to explode.
