"Who was being so arrogant?"

The demon gods turned to look. Another demon god emerged from the void.

"It was Time Demon God Shi Chen?"

"Now this would be interesting!"

Time was king, space was supreme.

This saying had always circulated throughout Chaos.

It was backed by real battle records and lessons paid for with the blood of countless demon gods.

Even Yin Yang and Slaughter, who ranked among the top ten, had once fought.

Yet faced with the unpredictable Law of Time, even they had been helpless.

"Time Demon God, do you intend to claim this item for yourself?"

Yin Yang Demon God glared at him angrily.

Meanwhile, Slaughter Demon God tightly gripped the Slaughter Sword in his hand, his brow furrowed.

The other demon gods looked at one another, and for a moment, none dared act rashly.

They had once fought fierce battles against this Time Demon God and knew full well how formidable he was.

In every clash, they had found it difficult to gain the upper hand, let alone defeat him.

Now that they had encountered him again, they naturally could not help feeling intimidated.

Just then, the corners of Time Demon God Shi Chen's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile.

Immediately afterward, an incomparably powerful surge of mana erupted from his body and swept outward like raging ocean waves.

Feeling that terrifying aura, every demon god present underwent a dramatic change in expression. When they sensed the realm Shi Chen had revealed, they were even more stunned, scarcely daring to believe their eyes.

"Heavenly Dao Realm! How... how was that possible? How had he broken through to such a profound realm so quickly?" one demon god muttered, his voice trembling.

"Exactly! How long had it even been? He had already entered the Heavenly Dao Realm. How were we supposed to contend against him now?" another demon god said, his face full of despair.

Though the demon gods were filled with unwillingness in the face of such a powerful enemy, they knew that with their current strength, they could not possibly be Shi Chen's match.

The prize that had seemed within arm's reach, practically at their lips, was now something they could not even touch. The feeling was maddening.

"Heh, did you truly think I was the only one who had broken through?" Just as everyone fell into despair, Yin Yang suddenly sneered.

Yin Yang, Slaughter, Five Elements, Chaos, and Creation exchanged glances before fully unleashing their realms.

In an instant, the entire space was filled with brilliant lights and powerful energy fluctuations.

"Hm? All of you had broken through to the Heavenly Dao Realm?"

Shi Chen's expression shifted slightly. He had not expected all five of them to have broken through.

"So? What did you have to say now?"

"Fellow Daoist Shi Chen, it seemed this treasure was not fated to be yours!"

"Heh!"

Above the void, five figures confronted Shi Chen.

"Damn it! This was going to be troublesome!"

Shi Chen was furious. He had thought that after breaking through to the Heavenly Dao Realm, the treasure would be his for the taking.

He had not expected the other demon gods to break through as well.

"Oh? They had actually broken through to the Heavenly Dao Realm? Interesting!"

Lin Tian narrowed his eyes and folded his arms, looking as though he were watching a show.

Beside him, when the Chaos Demon Ape saw that several of them had entered the Heavenly Dao Realm, he showed no fear at all. Instead, he was eager to fight.

"This monkey, heh."

Seeing the Chaos Demon Ape's expression, Lin Tian's eyes were full of approval.

Born for battle, mad for battle!

Even when facing enemies stronger than himself, he still had the courage to fight.

Just then, the World Tree completely revealed itself.

Within Chaos stood a colossal tree a hundred zhang tall, its body radiating endless divine light.

"Grab it!"

At the sight of the World Tree appearing, the many demon gods ignored Time Demon God's warning and swarmed forward to seize it.

For a time, countless laws intertwined, and the battle became fierce.

"Courting death!"

Time Demon God's face was full of fury. These low-level demon gods had completely ignored his words. With a wave of his hand, a surge of the Law of Time shot toward them.

"Time Slash!"

Streams of temporal energy flew forth.

How could those low-level demon gods withstand an attack from a Heavenly Dao Realm expert?

They were all greatly alarmed and hurriedly unleashed the power of their own laws.

"Pfft."

Though they resisted, they still suffered considerable injuries.

"Great God, we dare not do it again. Please spare us."

Demon gods immediately fell to their knees and begged Time Demon God for mercy.

The corners of Time Demon God's lips rose slightly, revealing undisguised contempt. His cold gaze remained fixed on the World Tree before him, as though the mysterious and powerful giant tree were already his possession.

Just as he prepared to take the World Tree, several Heavenly Dao Realm demon gods at his side launched attacks simultaneously without prior agreement. Their target was the World Tree.

"How dare you!"

Shi Chen's eyes widened in fury as he let out a thunderous roar.

His hands moved swiftly, and streaks of dazzling law power gathered in his palms like a tide.

In an instant, his figure flashed, and he charged without hesitation toward the oncoming enemies.

For a time, the entire space was shrouded in dazzling, multicolored light.

"Time Bind!"

Shi Chen shouted. As his voice fell, an invisible force suddenly erupted like a giant net, attempting to trap his enemies tightly.

"Time Reversal!"

However, the other five demon gods were no ordinary opponents.

Faced with Shi Chen's fierce assault, they showed no intention of retreating. Instead, each brought out his own innate Spiritual Treasure.

"Chaos Cauldron!"

"Yin Yang Plate!"

"Gate of Creation!"

"Slaughter Sword!"

"Five Elements Mutual Destruction!"

Roars rang through the sky as the five great demon gods unleashed their innate Spiritual Treasures.

These Spiritual Treasures radiated terrifying auras that made hearts tremble, each one containing endless law power.

As the demon gods activated them with all their strength, vast amounts of law power continuously poured into them, forming a surging torrent that swept directly toward Shi Chen.

Seeing this, Shi Chen inwardly cried out in alarm, but he did not panic.

With a thought, his innate Spiritual Treasure—the Time Roulette—appeared!

This treasure possessed the miraculous ability to turn Qiankun and manipulate time.

At that moment, the mana within Shi Chen's body surged wildly like floodwaters bursting through a broken dam, all of it pouring into the Time Roulette.

The previously plain and dim roulette instantly burst with radiant light, like a blazing sun engulfed in roaring flames.

Holding the Time Roulette, Shi Chen swung it with all his might. An incomparably thick beam of energy roared forth with the force to destroy heaven and earth, crashing fiercely into the incoming Spiritual Treasures.

The attacks of both sides collided thunderously in midair, triggering an earth-shattering explosion.

Violent energy shockwaves ravaged the surroundings in every direction. The nearby space trembled violently, as though it might collapse and shatter at any moment.

At this moment, the weaker low-level demon gods sensed that the situation was turning bad, and their faces all went pale with fright.

They knew well that if they remained to watch, once they were caught in the aftermath of this fierce battle, even their lives might not be spared.

These cowardly fellows did not waste another word. With a few flashes, they swiftly fled from this troublesome place.

Now, only Shi Chen and the five Heavenly Dao Realm demon gods remained, fighting desperately.

Along with the Chaos Demon Ape and Lin Tian, who were watching from the side.

"Big Brother, should we go in now?"

The Chaos Demon Ape could no longer suppress the restlessness in his heart. Seeing the others fighting, he wanted to join the battle as well.

"Hm? Go together?"

Lin Tian shook his head, indicating that he was not that kind of person. He had a better idea.

The Chaos Demon Ape scratched his head, somewhat unable to understand his big brother's thoughts.

"Heh, just watch!"

Lin Tian smiled mysteriously.

He took two steps forward and said to the demon gods still fighting, "Stop fighting. I'm taking the World Tree! Who agrees? Who objects?"
