The True Demon King

"Ah!"

The Demon Commander who were observing the entire battlefield from afar were suddenly enveloped by a pillar of light. They then realized that their power was rapidly dissipating and they were becoming extremely old.

Everyone panicked for a moment. "King's Hall Highness, what are you doing?" Mengka asked the culprit in astonishment.

Alora, the Succubus General who thought himself a close confidant of the King's Hall, also reacted similarly. However, it turned out that he was just a sacrifice. The King's Hall saved him only because he did not want to waste a precious Demon Commander resource.

King's Hall was enjoying the power recovering and increasing within his body, as well as his increasingly youthful physique, ignoring the pronouncements of the many offerings.

"Hehe~" Ge Xiusi, on the other side, felt his weakness but was not surprised at all.

He said coldly, "Hasn't Demon Commander Mengka heard of the Evil Emperor Life Devouring Array?"

Ge Xiusi had known this all along, and was even the mastermind behind it. That's why he was so certain that Mengka would never be the final winner, because if everyone is a loser, there's no point in talking about victory or defeat.

"Damn it." As Demon Commander, how could Mengka not know the name of the Evil Emperor Life Devouring Array? However, he never expected that this lost formation would appear in the hands of the King's Hall.

Even with his simple mind, he figured it out. Everything that had happened during this time was nothing but a trap, designed to gather these scattered Demon Commander together so that they could be wiped out in one fell swoop.

"I won't give up so easily." Mengka's face hardened as he gathered the last of his strength and slammed it heavily into the pillar of light surrounding him.

"Bang!"

As expected, the once-powerful attack now only created ripples in the pillar of light, but Mengka did not give up and continued to deliver punches.

The other Demon Commander also displayed their unique abilities, unleashing their strongest attacks in an attempt to break the pillar of light enveloping them.

King's Hall was unconcerned about the crowd's resistance. If his meticulously arranged Evil Emperor Life Devouring Array were so easily broken, why would he have poured so much effort into it?

As time went by, everyone gradually fell silent...

But what no one saw was the eerie smile that appeared on Ge Xiusi's lips as he was about to close his eyes.

Xiao Han's expression hardened when he saw the scene in the pillar of light.

"What exactly is this Evil Emperor Life Devouring Array?" Xiao Han frowned and transmitted his voice to Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice.

He could sense that the auras of the Demon Commander within the pillar of light were rapidly disappearing, while the King's Hall, which had been at its last gasp, was rapidly recovering.

"Sigh, I never expected that old codger would have such an evil formation." Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice sighed.

Before Xiao Han could ask, Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice continued, "The Evil Emperor Life Devouring Array, as the name suggests, is an array created and cast by the emperor of the Evil Clan. In my inherited memories, it is an extremely powerful evil array."

Although I don't know how this old codger was able to unleash the Evil Emperor Life Devouring Array in this pseudo-king's body, we might really be in big trouble this time.

The Evil Emperor Life Devouring Array, once activated, will devour all target lives within its range and concentrate all this power into one person's body, granting that person power far exceeding their own.

In Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice's memory, the Evil Clan emperor's aura surged dramatically after casting this formation, making him virtually unapproachable, even by gods and demons. At least ten Dou Di powerhouses risked self-destruction to drag him down with them.

After telling Xiao Han about these things, the two fell silent.

Although neither the number of sacrifices, their strength, nor the power of the caster could compare to the emperor in my memory.

However, judging from the fact that this false king directly sacrificed all the Demon Commander, it was inevitable that he would break through to the Nine Star Dou Sheng.

Such a disparity was truly baffling, leaving one wondering how it could be bridged. Xiao Han had no intention of intervening; did he really have the power to disrupt such a high-level Grand Array?

He was even relieved that this so-called Evil Emperor Life Devouring Array only devoured creatures that cultivated Evil Qi; otherwise, Xiao Han would probably have been finished without the King's Hall even having to lift a finger.

Time passed second by second, and Xiao Han's aura had dropped back to the Seven-Star Dou Sheng Late Stage. In contrast, King's Hall's strength had already broken through the Nine Star Dou Sheng barrier and was heading towards the mid-stage of the Nine Star realm.

"Hahahaha~" Finally, the King's Hall, who had been sitting cross-legged and absorbing the power brought by the many Demon Commander, ended this state and laughed wildly.

The Demon King Realm, he's back!

With a gentle clench of his fist, the King's Hall caused a massive collapse in the void, with endless Space Turbulence tearing at the shattered space.

Then, King's Hall, his eyes red, turned his gaze to Xiao Han and the other person who had been watching the show from the sidelines. At this moment, both of them felt as if they had been overwhelmed by a flood or a ferocious beast.

"You..." the King's Hall said in a chilling tone, "How do you want to die?"

It was Xiao Han's momentary impulsive act that caused such a huge blunder in his plan.

After the battle with Xiao Han, King's Hall's body was already overwhelmed and on the verge of destruction, so he had no choice but to take a risky move and activate the Evil Emperor Life Devouring Array ahead of schedule.

Although the strength of the Evil King's Hall has been greatly enhanced, he is not in his prime, which has caused his mind to be affected by the evil energy, resulting in some confusion, as evidenced by the bloodlust in his eyes.

He would not let the culprit behind all this get away with it.

"Hehe~" Xiao Han gave a wry smile. This time, he was probably really going to risk his life.

Before Xiao Han could say anything to ease the tension, he heard Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice's apologetic voice, "I'm sorry, I've dragged you into this."

Xiao Han didn't reply, but a resolute glint flashed in his eyes. "Don't worry, I will bring you, the Guest Elder, back to the Langya Pavilion safely."

His tone was solemn and convincing.

"What are you going to do?" A bad feeling arose in Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice's heart.

"My life is not something trash like you can take!" The King's Hall, who was confident of victory, heard such disrespectful words at this moment of triumph.

In an instant, the lingering murderous aura pressed down on Xiao Han in a devastating wave. However, this energy, which could have easily defeated a Middle Stage Dou Sheng expert, turned into ice shards in front of Xiao Han.

Xiao Han walked step by step toward the King's Hall. The Fallen Thunder Crystal Ice, whose armor form had been removed by Xiao Han some point, reverted to human form and appeared behind him in surprise.

King's Hall made no move in response to Xiao Han's unusual behavior, but just watched the strange actions of this "clown" with amusement. Did he really think he could kill him, a king, who was above his level?

However, he soon stopped laughing.

"Frost Moon Over Heaven, Ice and Snow Sacrificial Rite!" Xiao Han opened his mouth slightly, and immediately, a huge ice formation centered on Xiao Han enveloped the King's Hall and Xiao Han.

The latter's long hair, which had returned to black, changed color again, its crystal blue shimmering even under the eternally shining Blood Moon.
