The strong members of the Demon Clan had temporarily retreated.
They had no other choice.
Both sides viscerally targeted them. Regardless of how great their Divine Abilities were, it was impossible to resist them. Staying would only lead to slaughter.
The Demon Territory.
The place where the Demon Clan gathered to survive.
Nefarious energy surged in waves. Various types of demons lived here, and in some places, great sacred cities had been built, establishing powerful influences!
And in the center of the Demon Territory, a neutral ground unclaimed by any clan.
At this very moment, a vast number of demons appeared, every one of them at least having a Primary God’s cultivation!
"The major factions of the Human Clan have already turned against us. Are you still planning to fight amongst yourselves while they take control and hunt down our Demon Clan without any resistance?"
A golden giant dragon exuded an immense dragon aura, forming a real dragon-like kingdom. It looked at the various elder demons present and issued a stern question.
"We are not ignorant of such matters, but after all, the Human Clan is powerful. It’s only natural for them to target us as we watch from the sidelines. What else can we do? Dragon Clan leader, do you have any good suggestions? Enlighten us."
A Demon Saint, he was a wolf demon who had become a saint, and he sneered at the Dragon Clan leader.
"We must ally together. Only through unity can we secure hope! The Demon Clan is not weak, but why have we never been a match for the Human Clan throughout the countless years? It’s because we are not united and prefer to slaughter each other."
The Dragon Clan leader mournfully said, "Even in ancient times, we started a great war among ourselves, resulting in the fall of numerous powerful beings, providing an opportunity for the Human Clan. Otherwise, would the five emperors of ancient times have had a chance to rise? They should have been eliminated by us!
"How should we unite?" a Demon Saint asked, her voice female. "Unity is not just a slogan, Dragon Clan leader, you understand the complexities much better than I."
"Our Demon Clan is like a grain of sand in the desert. Numerable as the grains of sand in the Ganges River, yet sand is loose and flows through the fingers. It is difficult to form a fist."
The Dragon Clan leader said: "If we don’t unite, we won’t get a share of the resources of the Thirty-Three Heavens Tower."
"So be it. I, the Old Goat, don’t care. The Human Clan factions are now at each other’s throats, killing whoever dares. Not long ago, six gods perished, it’s so brutal, and this is just the beginning. I don’t know how many will die before they can become saints."
A goat demon who had become a saint said in fear.
He didn’t care, and just wanted to live his life in seclusion.
"Foolish!"
The Dragon Clan leader rebuked: "Do you think this is still the ancient times where the Human Clan factions will decide between life and death? With the Eternal World undergoing changes, do you think they will leave you alone? It’s possible that they will wipe us out first before the final battle."
The crowd of demons was silent.
The joint venture inside the Thirty-Three Heavens Tower had shown ominous signs of this.
Having achieved a very high level of cultivation, they were not fools. They knew that these human forces would not allow a large demon clan to pose a threat on the sidelines.

"I endorse the proposal of unity suggested by the Dragon Clan leader."
A woman in colorful clothing arrived. She wore an air of cold majesty, emanating a regal aura. A multi-colored mark appeared on her forehead.
"Greetings, True Phoenix Demon Saint!"
The crowd of demons saluted.
The True Phoenix Demon Saint was the leader of all the phoenix descendants in the Eternal World, leading numerous winged clans under her wing.
"Heh, unity is fine, but the Dragon Clan should not dictate everything!"
A beam of golden light swept across like a divine sword, revealing an elder. He was the ancestor of the Roc Clan, his gaze sharp.
"True, I agree with the unity, but we need to discuss a specific method to guarantee the interests of all demons."
Another robust man appeared. He was covered in thick hair, his power shaking the heavens. He was the Earth Bear with a volatile temper.
The several Demon Saint leaders began discussing the matter of alliance.
"Of course."
The Dragon Clan leader said, "The purpose of the alliance is to unite our forces. The first step is to form an alliance, the Demon Alliance. What do you all think?"
"The Demon Alliance must be established," said the True Phoenix Demon Saint. "Who will be the Alliance Leader?"
"Yes, who will be the Alliance Leader?" someone asked.
The Alliance Leader was the head of an alliance, a position with great benefits.
"In terms of the most respected position in the Demon Clan that everyone would agree on, there’s only the Tortoise Demon Saint. He has lived from an ancient era till now, and is the longest living individual in the Eternal World. However, the Tortoise Demon Saint did not participate in this meeting."
The Roc Clan’s Demon Saint said.
"Tortoise Old Ancestor is too cautious. He doesn’t meddle in anything, which is his way of survival. That’s why he’s lived the longest in our Demon Territory."
The True Phoenix Demon Saint felt helpless about this Tortoise Old Ancestor.
He had immense strength, yet he didn’t care about anything. He was even more cautious than a Primary God, truly able to endure.
"Humph! When the Demon Alliance gains overwhelming momentum forcing even the Tortoise Demon Saint out of seclusion, it will be a trend that he can’t resist. He won’t have a say!"
The Earth Bear said hotly.
"You can’t beat the Tortoise Old Ancestor, he doesn’t like to make a move."
A Demon Saint said.
"If we continue to argue like this, the treasures will all be gone and we won’t come to a conclusion."
The Dragon Clan leader was very dissatisfied. If the position of Alliance Leader could not be established quickly, the next things could not be discussed.
"Indeed, we can’t continue arguing."
"By the time the Eternal World war ends, we still won’t be able to elect a leader."
"So who will be the Alliance Leader?"
"The Dragon Clan leader can."
"True Phoenix Demon Saint can too."
All these major demons began to discuss.
"Stop arguing. In Old Goat’s opinion, why not let both the Dragon Clan leader and the True Phoenix Demon Saint be the Alliance Leaders?"
The Goat Demon spoke again.
"True Phoenix Demon Saint and Dragon Clan leader to be co-leaders, this can work."
The Demon Clan powerhouse nodded.
The Dragon Clan leader wanted to monopolize the power, but he also knew that if he did not allow the True Phoenix Demon Saint to co-lead, the other Demon Saints wouldn’t agree.
The Earth Bear and the Roc Clan’s Demon Saint’s eyes flickered; they wanted to be the Alliance Leaders and knew the position could bring them great benefits, but they could not resist the decision of the Demon Saints.

They just glanced at the Goat Demon coldly.
"Furthermore, select a few powerful Demon Saints as elders in the Alliance."
The Dragon Clan leader and True Phoenix Demon Saint communicated with their Divine Sense for a moment, then the Dragon Clan leader said, "You all return to lead your respective armies. The Demon Alliance will direct all the armies. If anyone dares to disobey the orders, do not blame the True Phoenix Demon Saint and me for annihilating you!"
The cooperation of the dragon and phoenix was enough to suppress other Demon Saints.
"Again these brats are plotting against me, want to pull me into muddy water."
In a place in the Demon Territory, an old man appeared. He furrowed his brows and said indifferently, "That so-called Demon Alliance is just scattered sand without cohesion. Let me set the stage for you all? It’s impossible. That’s suicide. This old man has lived so many years, seen everything.
If I hadn’t been cautious and non-controversial, I would’ve died long ago. Can this old man get involved in the battle of the Eternal World?"
