After all, the stronger a world was, the greater its influence on its surroundings.
Thus, it was also farther away from the supreme Primordial World where Zhou Yuan currently was.
Countless buffer zones lay in between.
Naturally, the stronger one was, the more time it took to return.
Putting all that aside.
Divine Capital Luoyang.
"Yi Zi of the human race, come and die, you demon race invaders of the divine capital!!!"
After a thunderous shout.
Yi Zi's aura abruptly spread outward.
Its ultimate strength and violence enveloped the entire battlefield almost instantly.
"What is this?!!"
Countless beings, including the humans, heard that voice and sensed the violent aura.
Their hearts were filled with incomprehensible shock.
It was not that they had failed to notice Yi Zi.
It was because they did not know.
Who was Yi Zi?
Even the humans themselves did not know when a Grand Unity Golden Immortal had appeared in Divine Capital Luoyang.
As for the demon race.
After sensing Yi Zi's aura.
They, too, were shocked to the extreme.
Not because of Yi Zi's cultivation.
But because of Yi Zi's identity.
Human.
A postnatal human had actually cultivated into a Grand Unity Golden Immortal without possessing any authority or rank?
How could that be possible?
Even in ancient times.
When the Witch and Demon Races had fought at their fiercest, to the point that existences such as the Twelve Ancestral Witches, Di Jun, and Eastern Emperor Taiyi had slaughtered one another and simultaneously fallen into temporary extinction, unable to return to the Primordial World.
During the era when humanity had gradually risen and its destiny and rank had slowly condensed.
It had still not been an easy thing.
And now.
It was even more impossible.
At least on the surface.
Throughout these years, not a single Grand Unity had risen among humanity.
Therefore.
Where had this human Grand Unity before them come from?
The demon race could not make sense of it.
"No, throughout all eternity, there has never been word of a postnatal human attaining Grand Unity."
"This one must be putting on a show, trying to frighten us into retreating!"
From the heart of the demon race formation, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Ridiculous. The human race is weak; they only know how to use such pointless tricks."
"Other races might be frightened when facing them."
"However, we represent the demon race of the Heavenly Court. Even if it were real, who would fear it, let alone if it is fake?!"
After the first speaker, many more voices followed.
However.
Though they said so.
Every demon still harbored doubts and suspicions.
What kind of existence was a Grand Unity Golden Immortal?
How could a cultivator below Grand Unity possibly impersonate one so easily?
They could not understand it!
No one understood what exactly was going on with this Yi Zi.
Thus, the Demon Generals, demon commanders, and others at the core of the demon race all fell silent.
But Yi Zi would not stand there doing nothing.
Facing the attack of hundreds of millions of demons.
Yi Zi's mind stirred.
"Taiji Divine Lightning!"
The ultimate divine ability blasted forth.
In but an instant.
Massive lightning erupted from Yi Zi's brow.
Under the illumination of that violent lightning, heaven and earth turned a deep blue.
Wave after wave of Taiji Divine Lightning.
Surged and trembled through the void.
It looked like a blue river rippling through empty space.
With Yi Zi at its center.
Endless lightning spread outward.
Yet the first target was not the demon race.
Instead, it coiled around the humans who were forming defensive lines and fiercely resisting the demons.
"What!!"
Yi Zi's appearance had already filled the humans, demons, and all living beings beneath heaven with extreme shock.
Now, seeing Yi Zi unleash a divine ability.
Only for it to rush toward the humans first.
The masses were even more dumbfounded.
For a moment.
An idea flashed through the minds of countless beings—
Was this so-called human Yi Zi actually an undercover agent of the demon race?
Yet just as that thought crossed their minds.
The lightning Yi Zi commanded had already descended directly upon hundreds of millions of humans.
Then.
The lightning did not inflict any harm.
Instead, it formed deep-blue shields around them.
Lightning transformed into water!
With ultimate violence.
It revealed ultimate gentleness.
Lightning sheltered the humans.
Then surged outward again.
The lightning roared like raging waves.
Sweeping over the demon race.
This time, it no longer possessed water's gentle nature.
Instead, it directly revealed lightning's fierce and tyrannical might.
Amid the thunderous roar.
Who knew how many demons were reduced to ash in that instant.
Those whose cultivation was slightly stronger.
Could only manage to leave behind intact corpses in the face of that terrifying lightning.
Yet their charred bodies.
And the occasional strange scent of cooked flesh wafting from beneath the blackened surface.
Clearly showed.
That even those demons whose corpses remained intact.
Were utterly dead beyond doubt.
Crash.
