The next moment, a strong wind blew past all of them as a figure slowly appeared before the shocked gazes of the demonic path experts.
It was none other than Demon Lord Nine Calamities.
He looked at the Wrathful Asura King with an indifferent gaze as a morning star like weapon appeared in his hand, coated in dense Demonic Energy and an unfathomable aura with its spikes shining brilliantly in the dark sky.
The Wrathful Asura King furrowed his brows as he saw the weapon in the Demon Lord’s hads before he spoke up again, "The Divine Mace of Heavenly Destruction. Where did you find it?"
As soon as he said these words, the other demonic path experts, including the Evil Lord, Fiendish Sword Supreme, Queen of Desires, and the Heaven Despising Monk, all looked at Demon Lord Nine Calamities intensely, seemingly shocked as they stared at the Divine Mace of Heavenly Destruction in disbelief.
"One of the strongest Rank-10 Dharma Artifacts once wielded by the Demon God...it’s said that the spikes on its head were made of the tooth of a Half Immortal Sky Dragon from the Dragon King Temple, and after being constantly nourished by the aura of the Demon God for countless years, it was already close to transcending the ranks of Dharma Artifacts and become a treasure of the Immortal Gods before the Demon God was sealed away with all of his treasures and inheritances lost..
How does he have it?"
One of the demonic path experts stepped forward and spoke up, his voice ringing out with sharp killing intent.
He was the Palace Master of the Scarlet Moon Palace, also known as the Scarlet Moon Demon Lord, one of the three Demon Lords of the demonic path.
His white hair fluttered in the wind as a terrifying aura swept over, billowing his robes.
"Let’s say I obtained it by chance."
Demon Lord Nine Calamities replied calmly, swinging the Divine Mace of Heavenly Destruction casually in his hand.
However, a single, casual swing of the mace caused a huge wave of Demonic Energy to sweep through all directions, even pushing all those except for the Wrathful Asura King five steps backward.
"You...!"
Scarlet Moon Demon Lord shouted angrily before stopping as he saw the Wrathful Asura King raise his hand, indicating him to remain calm.
"Worthy of being a great Dharma Artifact once wielded by the almighty Demon God. Even with only a Late Stage Half Immortal wielding it, it can already match Perfected Half Immortals, truly impressive. However, Nine Calamities, are you sure you still want to do this? Even if you can fight against an existence at the peak of the Mortal World with the help of the Divine Mace, both the demonic path and the Demon Race have more than a single such being, not to mention them combined. You won’t be able to win against multiple Perfected Half Immortals altogether."
He said as Demonic Energy began to swirl around him, transforming into two bolts of black lightning.
Hearing his words, Demon Lord Nine Calamities just shook his head and laughed lightly as he replied, "Who said I’m alone? There’s a reason why many of your allies haven’t arrived yet."
As soon as he said these words, everyone except for the Wrathful Asura King had their eyes widen in shock as they all subconsciously backed off.
"...The righteous path Human Immortals, huh?"
The Wrathful Asura King said with a hint of disdain in his tone of voice, the black lightning bolts continously churning and emitting an immense Demonic Energy mixed in with the power of the heavenly rules.
The terrifying demonic aura caused the clouds to darken even more, as if the sky was about to collapse as the Pristine Waters below trembled from the might of one of the strongest known beings in the world right now.
"Even if you have the help of the righteous path and a couple of Half Immortals from the Demon Race, they’re not here with you right now, which means we outnumber you. You may be able to fight on par with me with the Divine Mace of Heavenly Destruction in your hands, but what about those behind me?"
As he said this, he looked behind him with one of his four eyes, watching the other experts of the demonic path ready themselves to attack Demon Lord Nine Calamities.
"Do you think you can take on a Perfected Half Immortal and multiple Late Stage Half Immortals all at once?"
The Wrathful Asura King had a menacing look on his face as he continued, a cold glint flashing past his eyes.
"Choose wisely, Nine Calamities. Even if our allies are being restrained by the Human Immortals of the righteous path, do you really understand how many of them are there, scattered throughout the entire world, waiting for the perfect moment? Did you ever really tried to understand the depths of the demonic path despite being with us all these years?"
Saying this, the Wrathful Asura King stepped forward in the air, roaring thunder sounding in the air and lightning flashing past his figure with every step he took.
Hearing his words, Demon Lord Nine Calamities’ facial expression faltered for a moment before he narrowed his eyes and spoke frighteningly.
"You mean...-"
*BOOM!*
His words were cut short by a loud explosion coming from in front of him and behind the demonic path experts, causing them to hastily turn around.
The Wrathful Asura King smirked lightly as Demonic Energy covered his entire body, making it seem like countless bolts of black lightning were hovering around him.
The next moment, a giant figure suddenly appeared besides the Wrathful Asura King, his speed so fast that all the Late Stage Half Immortals present only caught a glimpse of him before he was already standing right in front of their eyes.
"That is...!"
The Fiendish Sword Supreme said with a hint of shock in his voice, as stunned as all the others present there.
"Titan Feng Yun!"
He finally called out as the giant figure, towering over all of them with his height of at least dozens of meters turned its head down to look at the Wrathful Asura King as he cupped his fists respectfully.
"Titan Feng Yun...wasn’t he only supposed to be in the Immortal Ascension Realm? And from what I remember, even though he was well over ten meters tall, he wasn’t this much of a giant...Asura King, what did you do to your one and only disciple?"
Demon Lord Nine Calamities asked in a cold voice, gripping the Divine Mace of Heavenly Destruction tightly in his palm as Demonic Energy began to pour out of it.
"I didn’t do anything, just pushed him a little so that he could attain the Grand Perfection Stage of Half Immortal Realm. It wasn’t in vain that I hid him from the eyes of the world for so many years and wasted so many resources."
The Wrathful Asura King said nonchalantly, as if speaking about some trivial matter.
"There’s no way whatever tricks you performed on him worked without giving any price. What was the price?"
Demon Lord Nine Calamities asked again, a bit more intensely as he glared at the Wrathful Asura King.
"He just lost half his intelligence, not too great a price to pay for the power to stand at the top of the Mortal World now, is it?"
As soon as the Wrathful Asura King said this, he felt a sudden gust of wind mixed with Demonic Energy sweeping towards him with extreme force, as if an enormous mountain was pressing down on him, causing the surrounding Spirit Qi to sway violently and the worldly laws to bend.
Demon Lord Nine Calamities smashed down with the Divine Mace of Heavenly Destruction fiercely, uncaring of the surroundings.
*Bang!*
The next instance, the giant named Titan Feng Yun waved his hand as he caught a hold of the Demonic Energy releasing from the Divine Mace in material form, shocking Demon Lord Nine Calamities.
With a slight twist of his hand, he sent Demon Lord Nine Calamities flying far away into the distance along with the Divine Mace of Heavenly Destruction, countless sonic booms rupturing the space around them.
"Do you see it, Nine Calamities? This is what I have cultivated for over the course of hundreds of thousands of years!"

The Wrathful Asura King laughed wildly as he said this, looking into the distance as Demon Lord Nine Calamities rushed towards him from thousands of miles away like a beam of light.
However, the very next moment, the Evil Lord and the Fiendish Sword Supreme suddenly appeared behind him, both using their strongest attacks from the get-go.
*Boom!*
Sensing the incoming attacks, Demon Lord Nine Calamities swung the Divine Mace in an attempt to block, but with the pressure of two Late Stage Half Immortals combined, he was still blasted away a few hundred miles as he slowly stabilized himself midair.
Looking around, he found himself surrounded by the experts of the demonic path, all looking down at him coldly.
"Give up, Nine Calamities. There’s no need to struggle anymore. Your death is certain now."
The Wrathful Asura King spoke in a cold, arrogant tone of voice as the black lightning bolts in his hands conjured together, forming a massive bolt of black lightning which he aimed at Demon Lord Nine Calamities.
However, before he could shoot it out, he halted for a moment as he turned to his left.
What entered his vision was a huge Sword Qi, more than three thousand feet in size, coming towards him at an explosive speed with no signs of stopping.
He furrowed his brows as he turned and conjured another black lightning bolts in his hand, shooting it out at the Sword Qi with extreme momentum.
*Boom!*
Both the lightning bolt and the Sword Qi collided against eachother, but the former could only intercept the latter’s pattern as the Sword Qi was deflected to a nearby piece of land around ten thousand miles big.
*BOOM!*
The instance the Sword Qi hit the piece of land, it immediately collapsed and submerged into the Pristine Waters, as if it was never there in the first place.
Seeing this scene, all those present, including the Wrathful Asura King and Demon Lord Nine Calamities, were stunned.
Demon Lord Nine Calamities couldn’t help but recall something as a smile slowly crept up to his face while he looked up where the collision happened, only to see a smaller Sword Qi flying towards them with the silhouette of a man standing on it, his long hair and robes fluttering wildly.
"So it’s you, huh..?"
Watching his reaction, the Wrathful Asura King realized something and looked up as well, killing intent seeping into all four of his eyes as he momentarily saw the smile on the face of the man riding the Sword Qi.
"So you were still alive, after all...
Sword God Qing Yunzi!"
