Chapter 915: Attack of the Abyssal Demons, The Three Realms Approach Again
Editor: Henyee Translations
In the new world, where the humans settled down, the defensive forces had been thinned significantly due to the concerted invasion by the three realms.
The sites connecting to the Maw of Abyss, previously guarded by a coalition of three sects dispatching five to six Dao Integration Saints, were now left with only two.
Fortunately, during the three realms’ assault on the barrier, the abyssal demons had launched only minor probes rather than a full-scale attack.
Therefore, the New World had been peaceful for so long.
At a station of the Pantheon Sect, Sun Longxiang and Allheaven were on their routine patrol.
“I wonder how the situation is at the barrier.”
“It should be fine. When our time here is up, we should go to the barrier to continue guarding.”
The two of them chatted about the situation at the barrier.
Now that it was the chaotic period of the Floodgate Realm, the Dao Integration Saints were the main force of the realm and the busiest.
Suddenly, amidst the howling wilderness and swirling dust, they sensed an ominous presence in the air.
Fortunately, they had guarded the entrance of the Maw of Abyss for a long time and were able to capture this abnormality.
If it were anyone else, they wouldn’t be able to notice it.
“Demonic qi! Something’s not right! Move!” Sun Longxiang reacted first, pulling Allheaven away swiftly.
As they evacuated, the desolate ground exploded in a burst of deep red and black.
Where they had just stood, a small obelisk broke through the earth, oozing with malevolent energy.
“This is bad, the abyssal demons are attempting to forcibly expand the portal! We need backup!” Allheaven exclaimed, immediately sending out an alert.
The message of the abyssal demons attempting to breach the realm spread rapidly across the new world’s defense points.
Not only at the Pantheon Sect’s location, but alarms were also raised throughout the new world.
This new world was infiltrated by the abyssal demons in the first place.
Although the Daolords had previously managed to suppress the Maw of Abyss with arrays, this world wasn’t the Floodgate Realm after all.
Even the Floodgate Realm’s Daolords couldn’t completely suppress the Maw of Abyss here, due to the inherent limitations of not being in their birth realm.
That was why they needed to send people to guard it at all times.
They knew very well that the abyssal demons definitely had a way to open the portal.
Now, the abyssal demons had indeed arrived, but no one expected that after a century of relative quiet, their resurgence would herald such a comprehensive onslaught.
The obelisks emerging from the ground were actually abyssal fortresses.
After notifying their strongholds, Allheaven and Sun Longxiang didn’t hesitate to attack the obelisks, unleashing powerful spells.
Rumble.
The power of Dao Integration created a massive crater in the ground, yet the eerie, sinister obelisk remained unaffected.
The next moment, it erupted with demonic qi, growing even taller.
Instantly, the atmosphere was filled with an ominous mist as dark red fissures appeared on the surface.
Countless roars echoed as a horde of abyssal demons, some like black shadows and others like twisted masses of flesh, surged out, quickly covering the ground around the obelisk.
“Die!”
The battle between the abyssal demons and the defenders erupted fiercely.
This scene was replicated across every defended location in the new world.
Dark red portals to the Maw of Abyss opened up one after another, marking the new world with scars of impending doom.
Calamity was unleashed as the demons attacked.
The people of the Floodgate Realm soon received news of the abyssal demons’ comprehensive invasion of the new world.
The previously relaxed atmosphere, following the elimination of the foreign races within their realm, suddenly turned tense again.
The upper echelons of the various sects quickly gathered and began to discuss the invasion of the abyssal demons.
In the council hall, super sect leaders like Yun Yizhen and Xue Ping were present, with Daolords such as Qin Shenwu occupying the seats of authority.
They took the invasion by the abyssal demons very seriously, considering them among the most brutal creatures in existence.
“All defended locations in the new world are under attack; the abyssal demons have already opened the portals to the Maw of Abyss. It seems they’re serious this time.”
Someone from the Pantheon Sect quickly reported the situation to everyone.
The abyssal demons had used abyssal fortresses to breach and even expand and fortify the portals, indicating they were readying for a full-scale war with the Floodgate Realm.
“We need to dispatch reinforcements to all locations. The invasion by the three realms had led us to withdraw too many from these defended locations,” another sect leader added.
Calls for aid were being sent from every sect.
The abyssal demons were challenging enough to contend with, and a lack of manpower could spell disaster.
“Send reinforcements immediately. Transport battle supplies first, and don’t skimp on talismans or spiritual treasures,” advised a Daolord from the Pantheon Sect sitting on the highest seat.
Unless the situation was beyond salvageable, Daolords could not easily intervene.
A direct confrontation between Daolords could potentially destroy the new world itself.
On this point, the abyssal demons had a tacit understanding and didn’t let Daolords involve.
“Now that the foreign races have been eradicated and the pressure on the barrier has significantly decreased, should we consider reallocating some forces back here?” suggested Yun Yizhen, the Sect Master of Thunderclap Valley.
Previously, he was in charge of guarding the barrier but had later participated in the suppression of foreign Saints, received the news of the abyssal demon invasion on his return and rushed to join the discussion.
The assembly began to weigh this option.
In fact, the situation at the barrier was not optimistic, but after the foreign races in the Floodgate Realm were eliminated, the attacks of the three realms slowed down a lot.
Meanwhile, at the barrier, many cultivators from various sects had just retreated to their camps from the front lines.
The ferocious foreign races had suddenly ceased their advance half a day ago, providing a brief respite to the defenders.
After enduring continuous battles for a year, the barrier had been noticeably worn down by the attacks, with both foreign and human sides suffering heavy casualties.
Taking advantage of this brief pause, the cultivators guarding the barrier took the opportunity to consume healing pills, cultivate, and repair their spiritual treasures, enjoying a rare moment of relaxation.
“Roar!”
Suddenly, a war cry from beyond the Floodgate Realm’s barrier tensed every nerve again.
A massive wave of demonic qi rolled in from the horizon.
“The armies of the three realms are attacking again! Prepare for battle!”
The alarm for war, which had only ceased for half a day, was sounded once more as the three realms launched their second comprehensive offensive.
The flames of war were reignited across all nine domains of the Floodgate Realm almost simultaneously.
Even figures like Saint Rosy Cloud, who had temporarily withdrawn from the Eastern Sky Domain, re-entered the fray.
“Quick! Request reinforcements from the Floodgate Realm!”
With Daolords from the three realms taking action, capable of destroying heavens and earth, the situation became dire.
