Chapter 1458 Nine-Headed Demon! Full Mobilization! (Page 12)

Three chapters in one!

The figure that appeared in the boundless universe was not much larger than the three chaotic demigods, but its appearance was extremely ferocious and its terrifying aura was much stronger.

The figure had nine distinct heads, each corresponding to a different skeletal face. The central human face was the leader, brazenly surveying the vast starry sky of the boundless universe.

That malicious gaze, and that evil aura that even made the most evil dragons frown, were sensed even by the thoughts of several demigods outside the vast universe.

Connecting the nine heads is a long, snake-like neck, with dense, diamond-shaped scales embedded in it, giving it an indestructible appearance.

Nine heads are connected to a massive body, which looks very similar to the demons in traditional understanding who fully reveal their true form.

Its upper body was a magnificent humanoid structure, with eighteen arms and claws of various shapes growing from both sides of its body, all exuding a terrifying and oppressive aura.

The devil's most iconic bat-like wings extend from its broad back, obscuring the vast starry sky for countless light-years, and the wing membranes are engraved with a large number of terrifying patterns that make people dizzy at first glance.

The lower half of the imposing figure features two very typical thick, reverse-jointed legs, but the feet are not the traditional devil's hooves, but rather have a structure like dragon claws.

Unlike the slender devil's tail, an incredibly thick long tail grows from behind, capable of disrupting the spacetime structure of the starry sky with a mere sway, causing countless surrounding galaxies to become disordered.

It can be said that this suddenly appearing nine-headed demon god, both in its appearance and the aura it constantly exudes, is filled with an extreme sense of oppression.

……

The scorching smell of sulfur permeated the air, distorting the surrounding spacetime into a hellish environment, which the so-called vacuum simply could not withstand.

The rampant infiltration of hellish magic has affected more than one timeline in a very short time, and is even progressing towards influencing everything within that timeline.

"What it is?"

"That aura, and that human face... Is it Rest? Could this be His true form?"

"Such a strong sense of oppression, that tiger face... why does it feel so familiar to me?"

"That is the primordial aura. It seems we have done something foolish, inadvertently helping Anxi into a dangerous situation!"

"It's not entirely wrong. At least the situation has returned to what it was before. Anyway, we've been living in peace for so many years."

“That’s right. At worst, we can abandon our previous plans. With this guy around, at least we don’t have to worry about being overwhelmed by those guys from the City of Myriad Elephants.”

Having just divided up the original ancient god, the three chaotic demigods looked at the nine-headed demon god with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty.

From the nine-headed demon, they sensed many familiar yet vague auras, the most familiar of which was the tiger-faced demon that had just been transformed not long ago.

Although the chaotic minds of the three Chaotic Devas may seem somewhat foolish on ordinary days, their thinking abilities are sufficient to allow them to come up with many things.

With a slight turn, they guessed the identity of the nine-headed demon god before them. Considering the tiger face that exuded the aura of an ancient god, they had almost completely deduced the origin and development of the nine-headed demon god.

But what can we do about it?

At this moment, the oppressive aura emanating from the nine-headed demon was even greater than that of Anxi's former true form and the state after the fusion of his two incarnations.

He no longer needed to consider other people's thoughts, nor did he need to worry about whether the remaining three chaotic demigods would join forces against him.

The extreme ascent of power, and the essence that had already surpassed the limits of a demigod and was almost at the level of a great god, gave Him a feeling of being able to go to heaven and earth and be omnipotent.

Simply put, He has become arrogant!

In this void sea where no great god has yet been born, the power that the nine-headed demon god is currently displaying is indeed commensurate with his inflated ego.

……

Beyond the boundless universe, witnessing the birth of the nine-headed demon god before their very eyes, the thoughts and expressions of several demigods of order were quite unpleasant.

"Damn it, I thought I was just here to watch these idiots have a good time, but instead I've witnessed the birth of a formidable foe!"

"No, we must prepare for war immediately!"

"Judging from the aura emanating from that nine-headed demon, its strength has surpassed that of the fused body of Anxi. Apart from having to guard against those three idiots, no matter which two of us join forces, we are no match for it."

"Damn it! We thought that with the fall of the Primordial God, we could finally set the Void Sea in order, but instead we've encountered this terrible thing!"

The thoughts of several demigods of order, as well as their true forms in the City of Myriad Phenomena, were all being discussed animatedly.

At this moment, Yang Dong's voice suddenly rang out.

"Alright, stop with the nonsense. No matter what the situation is with that nine-headed demon, as long as I'm here, he can't turn the world upside down!"

"..."

The discussion stopped abruptly, and the gazes of several demigods of order turned in unison toward the source of the sound.

They saw that Yang Dong, who had been suppressing the pollution in the Myriad Manifestations Divine Palace, had emerged at some point and was already not far from them.

Most importantly, none of them noticed His arrival beforehand; they only became aware of His presence when He spoke first.

Although this was partly due to their unsettled state of mind caused by the birth of the nine-headed demon, and partly because they did not deliberately spread their will.

But this is still very shocking.

It should be noted that Yang Dong was now so close to them that it was practically face to face. If he were to actually attack any of them, the best outcome would probably be severe injury.

But in an instant, they cast aside these unnecessary wild thoughts and looked at Yang Dong with excited eyes.

"【Move】, are you completely alright?"

The Supreme Good Dragon Ancestor asked with shining eyes.

Yang Dong nodded.

"There was nothing wrong to begin with. I stayed in the Myriad Manifestations Divine Palace just to cause some trouble for the other side."

"But I didn't expect this trouble. The Primordial Ancient God couldn't handle it at all, and was even killed by those other guys."

"What I didn't expect was that this action was exactly what the Restoration wanted, and it actually gave Him His wish."

Yang Dong would certainly not say that although all of this was not something He actively brought about, there was more or less some of His testing involved.

Now, His temptation has been tested.

However, the explanations given to the several deities of order should, of course, be presented as well-intentioned but misguided.

……

After confirming that Yang Dong was completely fine, the several Order Demigods relaxed considerably, and the atmosphere of the discussion became much less tense.

Their previous discussions were largely based on excluding Yang Dong.

Without Yang Dong, the powerful figure who severely injured Anxi, the five of them, as demigods, would certainly be no match for the Chaotic Faction, whose overall strength had increased significantly.

Before Yang Dong appeared, they faced a chaotic camp with only six demigods and no availability of an incarnation of a demigod.

If it were the Chaotic Faction, which is now even stronger, their various concerns would not be unfounded.

But with Yang Dong added to all of this, it's no longer possible to calculate things the same way as before.

They were unsure whether Yang Dong had gone all out when he severely injured Anxi last time.

The only certainty is that with three of the five demigods being used to restrain the Zerg Queen, the Evil Dragon Ancestor, and the Boundless Underworld Lord, no matter which two demigods join forces with Yang Dong, they are at least somewhat confident that they can fight against the Nine-Headed Ghost God.

That's enough!

As far as the demigods are concerned, as long as their strength is not so great as to be ridiculously different, and they can barely maintain a stalemate or be slightly at a disadvantage, they are confident that they can continue the confrontation until the end of time.

This standoff between order and chaos will continue until one of the two sides undergoes another radical transformation, at which point it may finally come to an end.

……

"Judging from the current situation, all of the Chaos faction's top combat forces should be out in the open, and it seems that we can seize the time to take action."

Yang Dong looked at the five demigods and spoke.

"Isn't this... a bit too hasty?"

"Yes, we haven't figured out the exact strength of that nine-headed demon yet. Wouldn't taking action now be counterproductive?"

"How about we try to test the waters first, and then make a precise plan for the next step?"

Upon hearing that Yang Dong wanted to confront his opponent right now, the five Order Demigods hesitated to some extent.

Yang Dong shook his head.

"There's no need to test them. Now is the best time to start a war. Continuing to delay will only give that nine-headed demon more time to improve itself, which will be more disadvantageous for us..."

Yang Dong's words seemed to be an analysis of the current situation and pointed out the benefits of initiating the war first.

The truth is, Yang Dong himself is already getting impatient and wants to have a good fight with his opponent.

The five demigods were not indecisive by nature. After listening to Yang Dong's analysis, they all made a firm decision to start the war.

"In that case, let's start the war!"

"Since this day was bound to come sooner or later anyway, we might as well set the Void Sea in order sooner!"

"That's right, this inexplicable standoff has lasted too long, it's time to put an end to it."

"Regardless of who emerges victorious, this will undoubtedly be an epic etched into the annals of time throughout the endless ages of the Void Sea!"

"Done!"

The five demigods successively expressed their determination.

Thus, under the suppression of these top-level beings, the colossal City of Myriad Phenomena began to operate at an unprecedented speed.

In the long years prior, except for the chaotic period before the establishment of the City of Myriad Things, the City of Myriad Things had never truly operated at full capacity.

Even the war between the Divine Machine Emperor and the Supreme Good Dragon Ancestor and the three Chaotic Sub-Gods could only be considered a large-scale conflict between the two sides.

Now that the City of All Things is operating at full capacity, this massive machine, created to fight against the chaotic faction, has finally revealed its full power.

……

If it's just a battle at the highest level, all that's needed is for the two sides' demigods to unfold in the deeper dimensions; there's no need for such a complicated process.

But in the extraordinary world, there has never been a situation where the top-level big shots have already started fighting while the middle-level or even lower-level vassals stand still watching or waiting for the outcome.

If that's the case, wouldn't the top-level superhumans become monkeys being played with?

How can this work!

Since this is a full-scale decisive battle, all the resources and combat power controlled by at least a few demigods in the entire Order faction will have to be committed to the upcoming war.

Various types, levels, and functions of machinery were continuously produced and densely packed into different war zones, providing a continuous stream of support for the upcoming wars.
