The Buddhist-Daoist Allied Army stormed into the Nirvana Demon Realm.

Its power surged, and it wantonly destroyed the Demon Realm realm, attempting to cause primal turmoil and disrupt the refining process of the Demon King of the Declining World.

The leading Daoism deity, Venerable Sword Spirit, understood that he was no match for the Demon King of the Declining World, so he did not head towards the central area of the Demon Realm. Instead, he planned to cause chaos and then disperse his subordinates to lie in hiding for the time being.

Unexpectedly, just as they were wreaking havoc, an incomparably domineering will rose from the central area of the Nirvana Demon Realm, sweeping across the entire Demon Realm in an instant. The demonic energy between heaven and earth was boiling violently, as if in response to something.

"Anyone who dares to enter my Demon Realm without permission shall die a horrible death!"

Boom!!

As soon as the words fell, a magnificent and vast Spirit Ruins descended with a roar. Outside the Spirit Ruins, nine incomparably full divine halos floated silently, emanating a terrifying aura that indicated that all things in heaven and earth were being destroyed, decayed, and heading towards their Termination.

A deafening demonic sound reverberated throughout the heavens and earth, and a gigantic hand composed of extremely intricate Demon Pattern emerged from within the Spirit Ruins.

The slender fingers released pure and vast demonic energy, which transformed into ferocious-looking demons.

The giant hand, enveloped in overwhelming demonic energy, slammed down fiercely towards the Buddhist-Daoist Allied Army that had invaded the Nirvana Demon Realm.

It seemed poised to Destruction everything, including the boundless earth.

A massive, overwhelming hand swept across the sky, then crashed down.

Among the Buddhist-Daoist Allied Army, all the spiritual practitioners suddenly looked up, their eyes revealing an uncontrollable and clear look of fear.

Before the demonic hand even landed, that terrifying aura enveloped them.

Immediately, the magical artifacts dimmed, the magical power within their bodies drained away like water clocks, their physical bodies withered like weeds, their Blood Qi dried up and decayed, and their wounds became difficult to heal.

His soul trembled, his memories became disordered, and inner demons emerged one after another. His Dao heart was covered with a thick layer of dust that was difficult to remove.

His fate and destiny were suddenly distorted, misfortune befell him, and his allies betrayed him, their eyes bloodshot as they charged at him.

A series of indescribable and terrifying scenes appeared almost simultaneously.

It was as if the world they inhabited had become rotten and decaying, and the living beings within it were also affected.

"The Great God of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man!"

The leader, the Venerable Sword Spirit, had an extremely solemn expression.

The greasy hair clung to his skin, making the man, who had been handsome and dashing not long ago, look slovenly.

It was as if in an instant he had transformed from a vibrant youth into a decaying old man.

This was merely the aftermath of the demonic attack; the real assault had not yet arrived, yet the Buddhist-Daoist Allied Army already showed signs of collapse.

"The Demon King of the Declining World has become even stronger!"

An old monk with a kind face, blood still flowing from his chest, clasped his hands together and said with a somber expression.

Is this era truly destined to Samsara of the demonic path?

"A calamity for all living beings, a calamity for heaven and earth!!"

One of the monks broke down and cried.

The Five Decays of Heaven and Man affect not only the body, but also the soul and will.

No matter how resilient a person is, they will become vulnerable and fragile as a chick when eroded by the decaying energy.

Boom!!

The devil's clutches finally fell.

The atmosphere of boiling terror reached its peak at this moment.

The powerful aura of the Buddhist-Daoist Allied Army, numbering in the tens of thousands, vanished instantly, leaving only a few scattered individuals.

The demonic hand slowly rose, and demonic energy wove into chains, binding the disheveled Venerable Sword Spirit and the old monk, along with a few others.

"Not bad blood food!"

A low chuckle rang out, and the demonic hand casually picked up the spoils and returned to the Spirit Ruins.

The nine divine rings that stretched across the heavens and earth vanished.

In the world, only that enormous, boundless palm print remained, and within the valley formed by the palm print, countless rampaging, mindless demons roamed.

Shock!

Unbelievable shock!

With the Demon King of the Declining World's attack, the Venerable Sword Spirit, who enjoyed a high reputation within the Allied Forces, was defeated in one blow.

They were reduced to food for the demon lord.

The once-booming momentum of the Buddhist-Daoist Allied Army plummeted like a bird with broken wings.

On the other hand, the Demon Sect's side was filled with countless demons who arrogantly shouted the name of the Demon King of the Declining World, greatly boosting their morale.

Despite being outnumbered, they managed to repel the Buddhist-Daoist Allied Army ' offensive.

A large number of war Spirit Treasure fell due to the Demon Sect's counterattack, and countless people perished. Numerous spiritual cultivators from both sects turned into Great Void and drifted in the Void.

"A full 100,000-strong allied army was wiped out in a single blow. Is the Demon King of the Declining World truly invincible?"

"The potential to become a Demon Emperor Demon Emperor, yet already so terrifying before even achieving that status?"

"Heaven is going to destroy both Buddhism and Daoism! All Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Vajras of the Saint Realm, why don't you take action?"

"The righteous path is difficult to maintain; where should we go from here?!"

A Daoism Manifestation, appearing in human form, looked at the shattered warship with tears streaming down his face.

A Buddhism Arhat cried out to the heavens in despair, hoping to summon a powerful figure from his sect to subdue the demon, but no one responded.

During the final tribulation, the world is filled with Tribulation Qi. If someone who is not a powerful being of the current era were to step into this realm, they would be easily bewitched by the Tribulation Qi and do many irrational things.

Like the previous Perfected Lord Xuanwei, if Azure Radiance Mountain were destroyed at this moment, he would never descend to the mortal realm.

Moreover, the Three Sects have their own agreement that the powerful figures of past eras will not arbitrarily interfere with the current situation.

Their battlefield is in the Saint Realm.

The Dao Merging who witnessed the Demon King of the Declining World's attack reacted in various ways.

The Dao Lord of Ten Thousand Swords, the Dao Lord of Spirit Control, and the Venerable Great Compassion all remained silent.

The Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Skeletons, the Demon Lord of Heaven's Bewitchment, and the Demon Lord of Rebellion laughed incessantly, convinced that the battle was won and the advantage was in their hands.

The tragic fates of the Buddhist-Daoist Allied Army in their subsequent attacks on the Nirvana Demon Realm more than ten times confirmed the judgments of the three demon lords.

The allied forces' strongest attack, which even utilized an ancient Dao Artifact and combined with a powerful battle formation, unleashed combat power comparable to that of Dao Merging. However, they were still no match for the Demon King of the Declining World and were forced to suffer a defeat, resulting in the annihilation of the entire army.

Even that Dao Artifact fell into the hands of the Demon King of the Declining World, who controlled and refined it, making it even more powerful.

As time went by, the Demon King of the Declining World refined more and more of the Demon Realm essence, and the insights he gained into the world allowed his strength to continue to improve.

The further along the journey, the more difficult it becomes to prevent him from becoming the Demon Emperor.

The Buddhist-Daoist Allied Army gradually succumbed to despair.

It's as if I can already see the day when the pitch-black, sunless demonic light will engulf the entire Divine Realm.

The three Dao Merging Masters were even preparing to organize a joint army to retreat, hoping to preserve their strength as much as possible before the Demon King of the Declining World succeeded.

At the top of the magnificent building, the Qinglian Avatar took in everything, and a smile finally appeared on her lips.

The heat is just right!

It's time to make a move!
