Chapter 231: Chapter 230: Appearance of the Heavenly Demon from Another Realm
Translator: 549690339
Chaos erupts in the world of Ming Zhong, filling the hearts of its people with dread.
People can’t comprehend what’s happening, yet they feel an inexplicable terror descending upon them, their hearts pounding as if an overwhelming flood is poised to cleanse the mortal realm.
The Earth Immortal level Heavenly Demon from the outer realm may lack sense, but it is a genuine immortal being. Even when not using its divine skills, the imposing aura it radiates is enough to make all the creatures of the world tremble in fear.
This is the innate advantage of immortals over mortals.
Previously, the steed of Dao Ancestor, Ah Qing, who had been transformed, was also of the same level. However, it intentionally suppressed its aura merely wishing to protect the Human Emperor’s Storage Ring, otherwise, the aura it was capable of emanating alone could drive the people of the Ming Zhong World to despair.
Such a being arriving in any world would bring a disastrous catastrophe, with absolutely no chance of resistance.
Compared to this, Jiuzhou World is exceedingly extraordinary, with its rich heritage allowing it to slay dozens of Heavenly Demons over nine thousand years.
Xiang Gu submitted himself to the messenger of a higher civilization, asking the Heavenly Demon to take him to the more advanced civilization.
However, the appearances of this messenger and Du Ye were rather grotesque and strange in comparison. No, no, no, he shouldn’t think this way. This might represent the unique aesthetics of advanced civilizations. He needed to adapt to it in advance.
“Honorable messenger, please…” Before Xiang Gu could finish his sentence, he saw a metal fist coming closer and closer to him.
The last thing he saw before his demise was a huge metal fist occupying his entire field of vision.
A cultivator at the Body Integration Realm was smashed into a blood mist by the Heavenly Demon, leaving no corpse behind.
The Heavenly Demon’s appearance was beyond words.
It resembled a human, without clothing, hairless, with a body two or three times bigger than an average person. It had four arms, each holding a massive weapon. Its features were twisted, its expressions constantly changing sometimes angry, sometimes embarrassed, and sometimes dejected. Xiang Gu had summoned the Heavenly Demon from the outskirts.
“What the hell is this thing? The offspring of a crossbreed between a human
and a fierce beast?”
The person in charge of national defense, who had captured the image of the Heavenly Demon through satellite, furrowed his brows tightly.
This thing was bizarre, just appearing out of nowhere, yet filled him with dread from thousands of miles away.
This creature was instilling fear in all of humanity.
This was unreasonable.
His years of commanding experience told him this strange creature posed a threat greater than any beast. It would certainly bring disaster to the world.
The person in charge of national defense issued the order.
“Ninety-second Mecha Division, deploy.” They were the closest to the Heavenly Demon, right under it.
Weapons were ubiquitous across the Ming Zhong World to counter the fierce beasts. They could be found in tower floors, hollowed mountains, lakes, underground – barring the sky due to its extensive soaring costs, weapons could be spotted everywhere.
The people of this world were prepared for a total war, ready to take up arms and march to the battlefield to slay the beasts whenever necessary.
The battle-hardened soldiers were on standby, with unmanned mechas rising from the ground in less than half a minute!
The mecha division was deployed by the person in charge of national defense, he gave the orders, and the mechs would act accordingly, with no need for remote synchronization and control from the soldiers.
Despite holding two light blades capable of cleaving the fierce beasts in half, the mechas failed to inflict even the slightest damage on the Heavenly Demon, not even leaving a scratch.
“Launch the sun-mimic missiles, fire the Annihilation Cannon.” The person in charge of national defense decided resolu tely to use those ultimate weapons.
“Using these two weapons in the suburbs, the aftermath alone will result in the death of all the nearby residents!” a subordinate warned urgently. Even if they could kill this creature, they would still have to appear in military court for trial.
The person in charge of national defense was focused intently on the large screen, disregarding the advice of his subordinates. He had absolute command authority in military matters.
Should he wait until this creature begins a massacre in the city before using these weapons?
The sun-mimic missile was launched. The heat, matching that of the sun’s core, soared into the sky, melting everything in its path.
The Annihilation Cannon was fired, and everything within the explosion radius was reduced to an invisible atomic state.
“Report: there are signs of activity!”
The presence of the Annihilation Cannon meant that there was no smoke after the explosion, and one could visually determine the condition of the Heavenly Demon from outer space.
The monster’s skin was unbroken!
The head of defense gritted his teeth: “Bring over all the nearby imitation sun bombs and Annihilation Cannons and detonate them together. I refuse to believe that this thing can’t be blown to hell!”
Since this thing was more dangerous than a fierce beast, the two types of weapons that had no effect on the beast would certainly be ineffective on this monster as well. But the head of defense was scared.
Only continuous firepower could suppress the fear in his heart.
The head of defense bit his lip: “Also, contact the President and ask for help from the Jiu Zhou World.”
He kept comforting himself that the imitation sun bombs and the Annihilation Cannons would work, and seeking help from Jiu Zhou was just a contingency plan.
The attacks had no effect on the Heavenly Demon from outer space, but they merely irritated it. Sensing the satellite, it shot skyward, intending to destroy this electronic eye, then wreak havoc in nearby cities.
“Get down, you’re planning to destroy something this expensive too,” Jiang Li appeared, nimbly kicking down the Heavenly Demon that was madly trying to fly to the sky. The ground cracked like glass, causing a level twelve earthquake.
The satellite, which was designed to have stronger gravity the further it was from the ground, cost a fortune.
“The Human Emperor of Jiu Zhou!” The head of defense recognized Jiang Li.
“Look at this, the city hasn’t been affected by the battle, and no casualties were reported.” A subordinate switched the screen to the nearest city, “Something seems to have blocked it, the earthquake didn’t even reach the city.”
“Your military is indeed ruthless, but the decision made wasn’t wrong, it’s better to take action than to sit and wait for death.” Bai Hongtu stood at the junction of the city and the suburbs, setting up a great formation, blocking the heat wave.
Bai Hongtu agreed with the approach of the defense chief — even if they knew they couldn’t win, they still had to fight.
When the Heavenly Demon from outer space first appeared in Jiu Zhou, the cultivators of Jiu Zhou also thought the same, “Whether we can win or not, let’s not pussyfoot around, let’s make the first move.”
Unlike Ming Zhong World, the resolute cultivators of Jiu Zhou could really kill the Heavenly Demon from outer space.
“So this is a Heavenly Demon from outer space?” Ming Zhong was astounded, he’d heard of the reputation of Heavenly Demons from outer space long ago, but today was the first time he’d seen what a Heavenly Demon looked like.
He used his presidential authority to access the satellite feed.
It sure looked random.
Bai Hongtu explained, “Each Heavenly Demon has a different form. I’ve even seen one with four arms and four legs, sprawled on the ground like a spider. The ancestor of the Long Existence sect said that Heavenly Demons feed on the negative emotions of living beings. Since their birth, they absorb these things, which makes them ugly, confused, and irrational.”
Ming Zhong also saw a Heavenly Demon kill a person.
Bai Hongtu sneered, “That was Xiang Gu, he got off easy.”
The moment the Heavenly Demon from outer space appeared, he had released his Divine Sense and observed Xiang Gu and the Heavenly Demon.
Ming Zhong worried, ‘Can Mr. Jiang really defeat the Heavenly Demon?”
Ming Zhong had seen Jiang Li fight with the Dao Ancestor’s corpse, and knew of Jiang Li’s strength, but in his view, the Heavenly Demon was equally strong, and he couldn’t discern which side was stronger.
“What you should consider is, in front of Jiang Li, does the Heavenly Demon from outer space stand a chance?”
After Jiang Li’s arrival, an inexplicable fear dissipated. The citizens of the city noticed the commotion in the suburbs, and even if they didn’t go there in person, they could see the situation in the center of the battlefield through telescopes and high-powered cameras, some even tried to hack into the satellite.
Bai Hongtu kindly asked, “Should I set up a formation to block their view?”
“No, the impact of the Heavenly Demon’s appearance earlier was too substantial, the news can’t be covered up. We might as well take this opportunity to announce the existence of Jiu Zhou World.”
Ming Zhong forcefully projected the scenes captured by the satellite onto all the light computers, enabling the entire world to see clearly what had
happened..
