Douluo Continent: The Twin Sons of the Styx River, Shaking the World and Destroying the Heavens

Chapter 279 Chaos
However, at this moment, the twisted aura of "abundance" on the demons resurrected by the green rain suddenly disappeared as rapidly as the tide receded. Their green bodies withered and died at a visible speed, as if all their life force had been instantly drained away.

Immediately afterwards, an irresistible pressure descended from the sky, and an endless sea appeared out of nowhere—not ordinary seawater, but the hand of the "Envoy of Abundance," Chang Yang.

Apart from Xiong Jun, all the creatures tainted by the evil aura of "Abundance," whether they were newly resurrected green demons or mutated vines remaining on the ground, were completely annihilated the moment they came into contact with the deep blue sea, leaving not even a trace of ash, as if they had never existed.

The deep blue sea of ​​energy surged between heaven and earth, roaring like waves, completely washing away the distorted aura of "abundance".

"You don't belong to 'abundance,' so how do you solve the problem of 'abundance'?"

Sitting on the train bound for a third-tier city, Xia Die asked Chang Yang.

"They are not truly 'abundant,' nor do they derive their power from the 'Medicine King.' I felt no discomfort when I intervened."

They weren't in a hurry; this was merely a test from the demon plane.

They're not even considered the main force.

Just as I suspected.

It does indeed have the feel of "coronation of a god".

He intervened.

If they take action, they will inevitably leave clues.

That alone is enough to find the place.

"Continue the sacrifices, wake up, greed!" The all-powerful demonic consciousness in the demon plane commanded in a deep voice.

The demons that had just fallen had their bodies reformed and were resurrected.

Greed, the demon king shrouded in an aura of endless desire, slowly appeared.

"Go." The command from consciousness was concise and unquestionable.

In the blink of an eye, the Douluo Continent underwent a dramatic change, and the world turned as dark as ink.

A terrifying creature exuding an aura of world destruction tore through space and descended. Wherever it passed, spiritual energy stagnated, life ceased, and the entire continent was quickly swallowed by deathly darkness.

But in that instant when despair spread, an unbearably brilliant light suddenly burst forth, like the dawn breaking through endless gloom. The light was gentle yet powerful; wherever it touched, darkness receded as if melting snow, stagnant power flowed anew, and withered vegetation began to glow—light returned in an instant.

The creature's body was tens of thousands of meters tall, like a suspended dark mountain. Its main body was composed of swollen, twisted muscles intertwined with obsidian-like carapaces. Dark red, viscous liquid constantly oozed from the gaps in the carapaces, carrying both a destructive, burning sensation and a rich, corrosive vitality. Two intertwined auras swirled around it—the destructive dark patterns caused the air to continuously disintegrate, while the abundant green mist transformed the shattered dust into writhing, fleshy tentacles.

Its head is a typical demon's head, with two horns spiraling upwards, the tips of which are wrapped with black lightning. A constantly pulsating rhomboid crystal is embedded in its forehead, sometimes bursting with destructive red light, sometimes flowing with abundant green light. Its eyes are two bottomless vortexes.

Behind it were a pair of disgusting purple bone wings that blotted out the sky; its limbs were as thick as mountains, and the ends of its arms were giant claws with tips that could tear through matter and energy; its legs were covered with layers of carapace, which would cause the ground to collapse when it stepped on them, but in the collapse, thorns that would plunder life would sprout. This was the beginning of the gods.

"Demon King - Greed"

"Destiny: Destruction, Abundance"

"Introduction: One of the ten kings of the Demon Plane, representing 'greed,' possessing an extreme desire for 'power,' and having a strong possessive nature. He will not die as long as the 'Demon Plane' is not destroyed. Who can know the glory of 'greed'?"

He greedily surveyed the numerous top experts from the Douluo Continent present, his eyes looking down upon the world as if he didn't care about them at all.

The powerful aura emanating from him certainly put them under immense pressure.

In the air, the Nightmare of Greed, Mammon, waved his giant hand, and in an instant, thick, ink-like dark energy surged and condensed, transforming into a pair of giant hands that blotted out the sky. With an overwhelming pressure that could crush everything, it crashed down on the crowd below.

"No, be careful!"

Seeing this, everyone made their moves to prepare to defend themselves.

A jet-black sword light suddenly ripped through the sky, its sharp dark aura solidifying as it precisely struck the colossal, sky-covering hands. A deafening roar followed, and the giant hands shattered, dissipating into countless dark specks of light.

The attacker was a black-haired woman with flowing black hair, surrounded by a dark power that shared the same origin as greed but appeared even purer.

She is none other than the Dark Dragon King.

Besides being a "Commander" herself, Gu Yuena also commands ten Dragon Kings who are all "Commanders".

However, even if all ten Dragon Kings attacked together, they would not be a match for Gu Yue.

"Commander"

Greed, seeing this, was filled with fear.

He knew that although he could live forever by relying on the demon plane, it would not be so easy to deal with a "commander".

The way beings in the Demon Realm reproduce is completely different from that in Douluo Continent; they do not rely on reproduction, but on division.

A powerful life form can split into two new life forms, but the new life form will be weaker than the mother. It will then need to cultivate again, and once it has grown to a certain level, it will split again, and so on. However, there is a prerequisite for splitting: it must have sufficient life energy, and the split individual must start its cultivation from scratch.

Tracing the origins of life in the demon plane, it began with the demonic consciousness splitting into seven life forms based on its own authority. These life forms, through plundering the life energy of other worlds and accumulating over a long period of time, created the current scale of the demon plane. For example, the nine Cerberus dogs that the demon wizard previously carried were products of his own splitting.

The ten existing kings of the Demon Realm derive their power from the seven original life forms. However, these seven life forms have fallen into slumber, as they were essentially near-divine, and the current energy of the Demon Realm is insufficient to sustain them. Their initial duty was to create life for this world; after completing their mission, they remained in slumber, becoming the realm's trump card.

Originally, the Demon Plane had twelve kings, but over the long years, two of their life forms failed to mature and ultimately perished, their authority reclaimed by the Demon Consciousness. Previously, the Demon Consciousness had used the sacrifice of these fragmented entities to return the dispersed life energy to the Demon Plane, thereby awakening the original life form dormant within the Demon King—the Demon Lord Greed!
Greed said in a deep voice, "I never imagined that this world would have a powerhouse at the 'Commander' level. Did you scheme against us and set up an ambush here?"
