Now.
Nine Demon Mountain was in ruins after a brief battle, and two Nine Demon Mountain Immortal King- level Demon Beast had died. The remaining seven Immortal King Demon Beast were trembling with fear.
The Immortal Energy in the Central Continent is abundant, so it is quite normal for Demon Beast to be born there.
Previously, they did not interfere with the Nine Stars Empire, which was actually a tacit agreement to cooperate with the Imperial Family, allowing their Nine Demon Mountain to become a training ground for some cultivators of the Nine Stars Empire.
However, their complete return to the embrace of the Demon Race means that the Imperial Family will inevitably come knocking on their door sooner or later.
In front of the Great Demon kings sat a Middle-aged Man with a cold expression. The murderous aura emanating from him was almost tangible, terrifying to the extreme.
The Third Elder and Fifth Elder of the Nine Stars Empire both looked at this person with solemn expressions.
Late Immortal Lord!
Moreover, judging from his aura, he is definitely from a race with extremely noble Bloodline among the Demon Race, but he is hiding it too well for them to see. However, they can tell that he is a ferocious beast just by the murderous Sha Qi on his body.
We just don't know what kind of ferocious beast it is.
The Middle-aged Man glanced at the Great Demon kings, who seemed somewhat fearful, a look of disdain flashing in his eyes.
Then, he looked up at the sky, a mocking expression on his face.
"Nine Stars Empire, I didn't go looking for trouble with you, yet you still dare to come looking for trouble with us. You have quite the nerve."
A ferocious smile appeared on his face, completely devoid of any fear or worry. If one did not know better, they would think that the Third Elder and the others were in the Myriad Demon Mountain of the Demon Domain, rather than in their Nine Stars Empire.
For him, the only forces in the entire Central Continent that needed to be feared by the Demon Race were those with Immortal Venerable cultivators. If they were only Immortal Lord level forces, then they would not pose any threat.
For example, even if the two Immortal Lords in front of me joined forces, I wouldn't be afraid at all.
Even if they are outmatched, escaping is very easy.
How could the Third Elder possibly be afraid? He snorted coldly, then said with murderous intent in his eyes, "Arrogant! Although my Nine Stars Empire does not have any Immortal Venerable, killing you is as easy as turning my hand."
"Yeah?"
The Middle-aged Man sneered, and the aura within his body suddenly became incredibly terrifying. The murderous aura almost solidified, and a terrifying phantom gradually emerged behind him.
It was only then that the Third Elder realized what kind of Demon Beast it was.
Taotie!
It is the most powerful of the ferocious beasts, and even among the Demon Race Demon Beast, its Bloodline is definitely among the top.
Both men's expressions changed, but they quickly returned to normal. After all, this was the territory of their Nine Stars Empire, and they could not possibly be defeated here.
"Court death!"
The Third Elder and the Fifth Elder exchanged a glance, then immediately attacked the Taotie, neither holding back, unleashing a fierce and deadly move right from the start.
The two Immortal Lord cultivators, along with the Late Immortal Lord, would likely be no match for this pure- Bloodline Taotie beast in a one-on-one fight. However, if they joined forces, they would certainly be able to defeat it.
However, it will come at a considerable cost.
Seeing this, Taotie felt a mocking sneer in his heart.
Nine Demon Mountain was just one part of their plan.
Do you really think they'd make a big deal out of these nine Demon Kings?
There are many Immortal King Demon Beast among the Demon Race, but they only become rare after reaching the level of Immortal Lord. He personally came to guard this Nine Demon Mountain in order to attract the attention of the Nine Stars Empire.
This involves a grand scheme by the Demon Race.
Taotie wore a ferocious smile as he looked at the two of them, his crimson eyes filled with mockery.
If everything goes smoothly according to plan, the Nine Stars Empire may cease to exist in the Central Continent after today.
Foolish humans.
They're probably still in the dark.
The Nine Stars Empire had long been under the surveillance of their Demon Race, and many Human Race had already submitted to them, including members of the Imperial Family a few days ago.
With the help of the Imperial Family, the Demon Race thrived even more.
Thinking of this, Taotie sneered and then rushed towards the two. The aftershocks of the intense power exploded in the air, causing the entire Nine Demon Mountain to shake violently, and countless Demon Beast scattered and fled.
Taotie was originally one of the best among ferocious beasts, with Bloodline almost identical to those of Divine Beast. Or perhaps it was originally Divine Beast Bloodline, but because of its extremely ferocious reputation, it was specifically called a ferocious beast.
Taotie's combat strength is outstanding, and its physical body is incredibly terrifying. Even when fighting two opponents at the same time, it shows no signs of defeat, but is only suppressed and at a disadvantage.
But it was obvious to anyone with eyes that Taotie was still handling things with ease and wasn't under much pressure.
The physical bodies of Demon Race are incredibly powerful. Even when injured, they can recover almost instantly, much like Body Cultivator among Human Race. In fact, the Taotie's physical body is far more terrifying than that of many Body Cultivators.
"Hahaha, is this the strength of you Human Race cultivators?"
Taotie's face was full of a mocking smile as he looked into the distant void, "Why don't the one in the shadows join in too? Otherwise, I think the two of you are really not enough."
Upon hearing this, the Third Elder and the Fifth Elder immediately frowned.
"Arrogant!"
A loud shout rang out, and a figure instantly tore through the air and charged towards Taotie. The terrifying pressure made Taotie turn serious, and he hurriedly dodged to the side, but even so, he was still injured by that terrifying power.
A sharp pain surged through his mind as his entire arm was ripped off.
The Taotie's eyes were filled with a gloomy look.
Perfected Immortal Lord Realm!
The Nine Stars Empire actually sent such a powerful expert.
Taotie a cold laugh.
Immediately afterwards, his body began to swell, eventually transforming into a terrifying Giant Beast nearly three hundred feet tall. This Giant Beast had blood-red eyes, a tiger-like physique, but a face that was remarkably similar to a human's, sending chills down one's spine.
After Taotie revealed its True Body, its severed arm instantly grew back, and its aura surged to its peak once again, releasing a terrifying aura several times more frenzied than before.
However, Taotie did not force the issue. He glanced coldly at the Second Elder and then sneered:
"Human Race cultivator, your opponent is not me."
He can hold his own against two opponents, but he's no match for three, especially since one of them is a Perfected Immortal Lord.
After saying that, the Second Elder's expression changed slightly. A phantom figure slowly walked out from the Nine Demon Mountain. The pressure emanating from him was extremely terrifying, even stronger than that of the Taotie.
This is also a demon Demon Beast at the peak of the Perfected Immortal Lord!
The Second Elder's face was extremely grim.
Something's not right!
They knew the Imperial Family was coming to destroy Nine Demon Mountain, so they made preparations in advance.
The Second Elder's heart sank to the bottom.
Is the Nine Stars Empire really going to start its first war?
Because the Demon Race had been hiding their true nature, he didn't know how many tricks the Demon Beast had up their sleeves. If he didn't send the message back to the Imperial Family in time, he might suffer a great loss.
However, just as he was about to send the message, he discovered that the surrounding space had been sealed off.
A calm voice rang out.
"Daoist Friend, stop struggling!"
"Today... I'm afraid you won't be able to leave."
The newcomer was dressed in Black Robe and wore a mask, clearly Human Race cultivator.
