They wanted to lead the demon army, too!
They wanted to invade Heaven’s Vault Continent, too!
They wanted to feed on the mortals’ flesh and blood, too!
But what were they to do?
The teleportation magic circle was the gateway to their invasion of Heaven’s Vault Continent. It absolutely mustn’t be destroyed, so dispatching Demon Overlords like them to guard it was the only way to ensure its safety.
Therefore, no matter how reluctant they were, they could only carry out their duty faithfully.
“Eh?”
A light breeze blew past them at this point, and a group of people appeared above them. The Demon Overlords looked over in puzzlement, and then, their countenances changed greatly right away!
“Human... deities?”
“They are human deities!”
“Why are there human deities here?”
Swept clean of their previous boredom and complaints, the Demon Overlords’ eyes bore into the newcomers that had suddenly shown up. Their eyes were filled with wariness and caution.
The newcomers were none other than Meng Lei and the others. As they hadn’t deliberately toned down the aura around them, the Demon Overlords had naturally sensed the divine power that they gave off.
One of the Demon Overlords barked, “Who are you?”
“You’ve already guessed it, haven’t you?”
Meng Lei flicked his fingers and ordered aloofly, “Kill them! Leave not a single one alive!”
“Yes, Master!”
“God’s Domain!”
“Aaahhhh!!”
“Aaahhhh!!”
“Aaahhhh!!”
In just a short while, all 100 Demon Overlords guarding the teleportation magic circle were wiped out. Not even a single one managed to escape. When faced with powerful combat power, even escaping was nothing but just a fantasy!
“Manifest a divinity personification each and let them guard the teleportation magic circle, lest someone destroys it.
“The others are to follow me to the Demonic Dragon Continent and pay that powerful Dark Demonic Dragon a visit!”
“Yes, Master!”
Chapter 274: The War Between Gods And Demons, The Secret of The Existential Planes
Demons and deities belonged to two different camps, and they were two completely different types of higher beings.
For a deity to gain strength, apart from having to comprehend laws of nature themselves, they also had to spread their faith. The more abundant their supply of power of faith was, the faster they would gain strength.
Therefore, the number of power of faith domains one had was an important indicator of a deity’s strength and status.
It was a different case for demons in comparison.
Firstly, demons didn’t need power of faith. They needed only to cannibalize one another or devour demons or deities of a higher level than them, and they would be able to strengthen themselves.
This was the simplest and most straightforward way—as well as what most demons did—for a demon to strengthen itself.
Apart from that, demons also had another way to strengthen themselves, and that was—to occupy existential planes.
The more existential planes a demon occupied and the bigger their territory was, the more rewards they would receive from the Void. As a result, they would also naturally gain strength even faster.
This was also the main reason why many Demon Gods were passionate about expanding their territory and occupying more existential planes despite clearly not needing power of faith.
This was the exact reason why Cyrus, the Dark Demonic Dragon, had invaded Heaven’s Vault Continent.
As a Demon God, Cyrus had taken only a short period of time to mature to what it currently was. To outsiders, it would definitely appear to be amazingly talented!
After all, Cyrus had come from a low-end demon existential plane. Moreover, it wasn’t even more than 30,000-years-old yet.
How talented must it be, then?
But the truth was?
The existential plane in the Void that Cyrus’ hometown was in was relatively unique. Surrounding it were dozens of existential planes that were entangled together to form a densely-packed existential plane cluster.
Yes, an existential plane cluster!
An even more crucial factor was that no Demon God or true god had ever graced the existential plane cluster prior to Cyrus’ emergence. It was an untouched area that no one had ever stepped into.
Cyrus effortlessly occupied the dozens of existential planes after its emergence. That was how it had managed to enhance its strength and become a Demon God in such a short amount of time.
Its great fortune made innumerable living beings green with envy, while the speed at which it gained strength made it seem like a cheat that was armed with a cheating device.
Currently, at Mount Demonic Dragon on the Demonic Dragon Continent...
As the loftiest and tallest mountain ranges on Demonic Dragon Continent, Mount Demonic Dragon was shrouded in blood-red clouds and black fog all year round.
No birds flew there, while beasts and insects also stayed clear.
There were barely any traces of human presence and no signs of life at all.
Mount Demonic Dragon was a holy and untouchable place in the whole Demonic Dragon Continent. Any living being that dared so much as to come near would be executed.
Thunderous snoring could be heard coming from a cave at Mount Demonic Dragon’s summit at the moment. Air currents from exhalation surged out of the cave like windstorms—the Dark Demonic Dragon was currently fast asleep in the cave.
Indeed, the Dark Demonic Dragon spent its day in slumber all year round. It handed even tasks like invading existential planes and occupying territories to its subordinates.
The only thing it needed to do was to wait for its subordinates to conquer an existential plane, return to the Demonic Dragon Continent, and then refine the Heart of the Existential Plane, and... that would do.
Every other moment of the day was spent in comfortable slumber.
“Grandmaster!”
Just as the Dark Demonic Dragon was still in sweet slumber, a panicked voice traveled over from afar. Then, another Dark Demonic Dragon passed through the thick blood-red clouds and black fog and quickly
