Chapter 2588: Don’t Worry, I’ m Already Here!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In the Huaxia Corridor—one of the seven gateways between the Netherworld and the earthly realm—the guardians of the passage continued their blood- soaked struggle against the demons of the Netherworld. Days of relentless combat had left the guardians drained, with the toll of dead and wounded climbing on both sides.
Reinforcements for both the Netherworld demons and the guardians were summoned from the rear, plunging into the battle for control over the passage. The seven spatial gateways to Earth had become akin to seven meat grinders that indiscriminately pulled in more cultivators and Netherworld demons and slaughtered them without mercy.
On the secondary line of the battle within the spatial passage, Daoist Wang Lin, who had previously used a secret technique to sever himself in half to stealthily enter the earthly realm for investigation, was now lying exhausted. He had been fighting for two days and nights, to the point where he could no longer move a finger.
A few days earlier, he had disseminated the information he received from
Senior Tyrannical Song about the upheaval caused by the Limitless Demon Sect and the Netherworld demons, along with the spread of evil in the earthly realm.
However, the impact was negligible.
The Limitless Demon Sect had anticipated their actions being noticed. Far from concealing their cultivation of malevolence and the secret mobilization of Netherworld demons, they had made little effort to hide their activities.
Indeed, it wasn’t that the Limitless Demon Sect scorned concealment but rather that they were pressed for time to enact their grand plan.
The abrupt collapse of the Heavenly Dao left many unprepared. Not just the Limitless Demon Sect, but countless cultivators across the myriad worlds had to prematurely enact their plans and goals due to the sudden collapse of the Heavenly Dao.
Acting prematurely meant that many aspects of their ‘grand plan’ were imperfectly laid.
Such was the case for the Limitless Demon Sect. After the sudden collaose of the Heavenly Dao, they had to hastily proceed with their plan for the Demon Nation, lacking the time for thorough concealment or foundation laying. Certain aspects of the plan had to be abruptly abandoned to vie for the outcome of the grand plan’.
“Wonder if Senior Tyrannical Song has any strategies against the Limitless Demon Sect’s plans?” Daoist Wang Lin took out his phone, instinctively opened the chat app, and scrolled to Senior Tyrannical Song, who silently lay in his friend list.
At this moment, should he seek help from Senior Tyrannical Song?
The Netherworld demons on the other end of the passage had already gone mad. They didn’t need any provocation; more Netherworld demons kept gathering here, like sharks drawn to blood, throwing themselves into the tunnel of the meat grinder and engaging in a life-and-death struggle with the guardians of the passage.
Killing and being killed were ingrained in the Netherworld demons’ genes.
The more intense the slaughter in the tunnel, the more excited the Netherworld demons became.
Attracted by the bloodshed, an increasing number of Netherworld demons converged on the site. Many of the weaker demons rushed into the tunnel with bloodshot eyes, seeking death. They barely made it into the passage, without even managing to cast a minor spell, before falling at the feet of the guardians of the passage. Yet, even in death, they served to deplete the guardians’ stamina.
Compared to the seemingly infinite number of Netherworld demons, the number of guardians on Earth was limited. All resting guardians had been summoned back, and the major sects on Earth were notified immediately to request support.
The first wave of reinforcements from the various sects had already been deployed to defend the passage. Because of this, Daoist Wang Lin was able to retreat from the front line of the battle alive and rest for a while.
“We can’t keep this up. A war of attrition is not in our favor,” Daoist Wang Lin said weakly.
“Indeed,” replied a guardian beside him. He was also severely injured and exhausted. “The Netherworld’s demons have gone mad. With the Heavenly Dao collapsed and no Netherworld ruler to restrain them, the demons will continue to assault the spatial passage until they kill us all. Then, the demon army will invade the earthly realm… Now, we need the assistance of a senior powerhouse. ”
As he spoke, the weary guardian caught a glimpse of the ‘Tyrannical Song account on Daoist Wang Lin’s phone, standing out prominently. “Ba…Senior Tyrannical Song?” The guardian looked at Daoist Wang Lin in surprise.
“Dang, I didn’t expect the thick-browed Daoist Wang Lin to actually know Senior Tyrannical Song? It’s like finding out your ordinary dorm roommate knows a heavyweight.”
“You know Senior Tyrannical Song?” The exhausted guardian perked up.
“Didn’t I sever myself in half last time and escape to the earthly realm to investigate the Limitless Demon Sect?” Daoist Wang Lin nodded. “l happened to meet Senior Tyrannical Song, who was also investigating the Limitless Demon Sect, in the lair of Evil Wang.”
“Is Senior Tyrannical Song easy to get along with? Is it like the legend says, that merely breathing the same air as him will get you pregnant?” The guardian couldn’t help but ask.
Daoist Wang Lin replied, “It’s not as exaggerated as the rumors suggest. However, Senior Tyrannical Song is very approachable and easy to get along with.’
“Then, should we ask Senior Tyrannical Song for help first? Before the senior guardians arrive, perhaps Senior Tyrannical Song could offer us some long-distance assistance or a few pointers?” The guardian suggested.
Profound Sage Tyrannical Song, a senior of great wisdom and merit, might have a solution to the current predicament of the Netherworld demons’ frenzied assault on the spatial passageway.
A senior of such caliber could resolve the desperate situation of ordinary cultivators with just a few words of guidance!
“Let me ask,” Daoist Wang Lin nodded.
He gritted his teeth, opened ‘Tyrannical Song’s’ profile, and sent a message: “Senior Tyrannical Song, are you free now? Regarding the Netherworld demons attacking the passage to the earthly realm, do you have any plans or advice for us? To be honest, if we continue to exhaust ourselves like this, it won’t be good for us. We’re already feeling like we can’t hold on much longer.”
After sending the message, Daoist Wang Lin felt a bit hesitant. It took courage to suddenly disturb a great senior, especially when such a senior was renowned.
Ding!
As soon as Daoist Wang Lin sent the message, he received a reply from Senior Tyrannical Song.
“Don’t worry. Leave the Netherworld demons to me,” Senior Tyrannical Song replied. “I’m already here.”
Daoist Wang Lin leaped up from the ground upon receiving the message. “He’s here! ”
“Eh?” The other guardians who were resting and recuperating suddenly jumped up. “The Netherworld demons have attacked this place?”
“No, it’s not the Netherworld demons,” Daoist Wang Lin quickly waved his hand. “It’s Senior Tyrannical Song…”
Just as they were speaking, a terrifying aura emanated from the other end of the spatial passageway, from the Netherworld realm.
It was beyond the Eighth Stage, reaching the pinnacle of the Ninth Stage. This aura directly crushed into the spatial tunnel, forcibly suppressing all the cultivators and demons.
The demons and cultivators engaged in battle felt their bodies grow heavy, and they all knelt on the ground.
In the next moment, immense fear surged in the hearts of all the guardians and cultivators.
The Netherworld had actually dispatched a Ninth Stage demon!
And on the side of the earthly realm, not even an Eighth Stage Profound Sage had arrived in time.
Were they going to die?
