Darkness Descends

News of the Teleportation Array appearing in Iron Saber Gorge spread throughout the entire Blood Peak Continent.

Powerful figures from all over are rushing to Iron Saber Gorge.

Some people, having traveled halfway, heard that the Master of Lake Punis was also taking action this time, and turned back, cursing and swearing, because they knew they had no strength to compete with the Master of Lake Punis.

Some, though giving up the fight, still wanted to go and see what the commotion was about.

Iron Saber Gorge became the focus of the entire Blood Peak Continent.

A translucent white protective shield envelops Iron Saber Gorge. Since five years ago, Andres has ordered the activation of the "Boulder Guard," which never stops.

He now has enough Highgod under his command to rotate, so he doesn't need to worry about a shortage of manpower.

After killing those thirteen Five-star Demon, Andres's Godhead and artifacts were greatly replenished. After several decades, he now had more than a thousand Highgod under his command, and the number was still increasing.

Although most of them only Becoming a god by refining a divine spark, they were still a considerable force.

However, in recent years, there have been too many powerful figures gathered near Iron Saber Gorge, and these more than a thousand Highgod are no longer enough.

Andres had no choice but to erect the "Boulder Guard" to prevent any possible sneak attacks.

Andres stood in the Iron Saber Gorge, gazing at the western horizon.

His true form is already close and will soon return to Iron Saber Gorge. Only then will his combat power be complete.

"Grown ups."

"Grown ups."

Occasionally, a Highgod would pass by and greet Andres, their expressions showing some tension, not because of Andres himself, but because of the formidable enemy around them.

The entire Iron Saber Gorge is in a state of preparation for battle. As more and more powerful figures arrive, everyone's mentality is inevitably somewhat uneasy.

Fortunately, the scene of Andres killing thirteen powerful people with a single sword gave many people confidence, so that nothing serious would happen.

"Andres!"

Lulutia's voice sounded from behind.

Andres turned around and saw Lulutia, Cilia and the others flying over.

"Andres, the news is confirmed. The Master of Lake Punis has arrived and is currently at the Star Moon Castle in the west," Yasen said in a deep voice.

Star Moon Castle was originally a small force near Iron Saber Gorge. As Iron Saber Gorge grew stronger, this small force was annexed, and Star Moon Castle became empty.

In recent years, powerful figures from all over the country have settled in the vicinity, and Star Moon Castle has become one of their settlements.

"Master, let's retreat according to the original plan," Claude said.

They had already made plans on how to deal with it.

If Andres's main body Wind Element God Clone can return in time, they can try to fight the Master of Lake Punis. If they cannot return, they should retreat as soon as possible and use the Teleportation Array to return to the Dylan Plane.

There are countless Material Plane. Even if the Master of Lake Punis obtained the Teleportation Array, it would take him some time to master how to use it. And it would be even more troublesome to find out which Material Plane Andres and the others had gone through the Teleportation Array.

In the original story, the Sovereign's army was already very familiar with Teleportation Array and could easily find out when and who went to which plane. But in this era, everyone is still in the exploratory stage. Using Teleportation Array is no problem, but checking past records is still very difficult.

Andres and the others retreated back to the Dylan Plane, where they wouldn't have to worry about being found for at least a short time.

This is their last resort.

Andres didn't want to do this, since the cultivation speed in the Material Plane was far slower than in Hell, but he had no choice at this point.

He doesn't have a sure chance of winning against the Master of Lake Punis right now, so there's no need for him to fight head-on. He still has a lot of talent and potential, so it's safer for him to get revenge after he improves his strength.

"Let them begin their retreat," Andres said.

"Yes." The group accepted the order and began arranging for the retreat of the many God-level expert from Iron Saber Gorge.

Due to the limited range of the Plane Teleportation Array, there is also a limit to the number of people that can be teleported at one time, with a maximum of no more than two hundred people. Generally, it would be too crowded if there were more than one hundred people.

There are now over a thousand Highgod in Iron Saber Gorge, and with the addition of Middle God and Demigod, the total number has long exceeded ten thousand. It will take some time for all of them to evacuate through the Teleportation Array.

As the evacuation from Iron Saber Gorge began, not far from Iron Saber Gorge, at Star Moon Castle, a black octopus-shaped Metal Life was hovering in the air. A figure shrouded in a black robe floated outside the Metal Life, and behind him were a hundred powerful Highgod.

The figure in the black robe raised his head, revealing a fair face. Although the face was quite handsome, it was completely hairless, with no beard, eyebrows, or hair, making it appear extremely eerie.

Opposite the man in black robes was a group of powerful individuals with different appearances. Judging from their behavior, they did not appear to be a single group, but rather a hastily assembled group.

The man in black robes said calmly, "What do you want to do by stopping me?"

"Sir, please don't misunderstand, we mean no harm."

The speaker was a kind-looking, White-Haired Elder in the crowd. He smiled and spoke respectfully, "I am the patriarch of the Meili Family of Tianshan City. These people beside me are also powerful figures from various cities on the Blood Peak Continent. Our goal is the same as yours, sir. We are after the Plane Teleportation Array in Iron Saber Gorge. We wish to cooperate with you, sir."

"Cooperation? You stopped my Metal Life just for this?" The black-robed man's tone was calm, almost devoid of emotion. His eyes were like deep wells, making it impossible to discern his thoughts.

The White-Haired Elder bowed and said, "Yes, we have long admired the name of the Master of Lake Punis and wish to serve you. We only hope that after you obtain the Teleportation Array, you can also give us a share of the benefits. What do you think, sir?"

The man in black robes did not respond, but instead asked, "Since you know I am the owner of Lake Punis, don't you know my temper?"

"Temperament?" The White-Haired Elder was taken aback.

The man in black robes said, "I don't like strangers. Anyone who approaches me without my permission will die!"

He spoke slowly, and it wasn't until the very last word that his chilling murderous intent was revealed.

"Boom"

A surge of black mist erupted from the black-robed man, instantly enveloping the White-Haired Elder and the many powerful figures beside him.

Countless tentacles emerged from the black mist. With each swing of the tentacles, many powerful figures, including the White-Haired Elder, were easily killed, their God Body smashed like tofu.

"Ah"

The screams echoed in the black mist, from dense to sparse, until finally they disappeared completely.

The black mist gradually dissipated, leaving only divine Godhead, artifacts, and Space Ring scattered on the ground.

"Go and put it away," the man in black robes said calmly.

"Yes."

A Highgod clad in blue armor stepped forward and collected the treasures scattered on the ground. Then, the group re-entered the Metal Life and flew towards Iron Saber Gorge.
