Chapter 211 - 213 Sword Technique Beacon Fire
The Demon Lord’s status in the Demon World is similar to that of the Immortal Venerable in the Immortal World; the only difference is that almost all Demon Lords control vast legions of the Demon Clan, who govern tier by tier, waging wars against each other within the Demon World. Therefore, when it comes to combat power, Cultivators of the same strength from the Demon Clan are somewhat stronger.
The Demon Lord stationed closest to the Immortal Ancient Academy is called Anxi, whose strength is extraordinary and commands numerous generals, holding a vast territory within the Demon World. This positioning results from his ambition to make significant contributions to conquering the Mortal World; after all, it was said in the Demon World that only Demon Lords who have achieved military exploits have the right to occupy a place in the Mortal World. The chance to station here was also fought for by Anxi through battle.
Anxi himself has been thinking about gaining great merits in the battle for the Mortal World. In recent days, all has been calm; Anxi has been waiting for the opportunity to attack, never expecting that today, someone would dare to actively assault his camp. He couldn’t fathom that there were still people in the Mortal World today with the audacity to provoke him.
"Seeking death." Steadfast at the heart of his troops, a sudden change occurred, and Anxi Demon Venerable instantly sensed the chaos within the camp. Taking to the skies, he watched several streaks of light flash by, his soldiers falling to the ground one after another. With a roar of fury, he struck out aggressively.
These soldiers, each one was capital for his future domination of the Mortal World; having them slaughtered like this, one could imagine the rage in the heart of Anxi Demon Venerable.
"Take him down, then we withdraw," Ge Lao made a decision in a moment. If they could slay the Demon Lord this time, it would enormously boost their own morale, making the raid worthwhile.
"Alright," Sword Venerate nodded in agreement. Snatching the enemy general’s head amidst thousands of troops was an exhilarating thought. With several experts on their side whose strength matched the Demon Lord’s, a swift and decisive victory before the other Demon Lords could react would spell success for them.
"Form up."
In the Demon World, the rise of the Demon Clan is much more brutal than in the Mortal World. Nearly every Demon Lord has to fight through countless battles to advance. The Demon Clan’s path is one of devouring; only by defeating the opponent can one consume their Demonic Qi to ascend. Moreover, to become a Demon Lord, one must devour the Demon World’s Qi Fortune. Given that the Qi Fortune of the Demon World is limited, the number of Demon Lords is always maintained at one hundred, as legend tells of the Hundred Demon Lords of the Demon World.
