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

Chapter 282 Dealing with
Despite its overwhelming rage, the demonic consciousness was powerless at this moment. To destroy or close the gate, it first needed to be open, but the purple vortex before it was simply beyond its control—this was created by the Butterfly of the West.
Even if it attacks relentlessly for three days and three nights, it won't be able to harm it in the slightest.

Knowing that the opponent is incredibly strong and that their current strength is far from enough to withstand the attack, it seems they have no choice but to use their trump card.

Upon realizing this, the demonic consciousness immediately made a decision: "I originally intended to gather all ten laws before condensing my body, but now it seems I have no choice but to do it ahead of schedule."

"Sacrifice your lives, awaken, my subjects." As the cold, emotionless voice of the demonic consciousness resounded throughout the plane, in an instant, one-tenth of the demons in the demon plane suddenly exploded, transforming into pure life energy that surged toward the ten existing demon kings.

At the same time, a massive army of demons was surging madly toward the gate.

Soon, the first wave of a thousand demons descended.

"Fire nine level-9 fixed-position guided missiles!"

Yu Hua, who was in the lead, gave the order in a deep voice. The vanguard was equipped with nine times the number of level-nine fixed-position soul-guided shells as the Northern Legion.

As soon as the words were spoken, nine golden beams of light burst forth from the cannons of the nine god-level mechs without warning, tracing dazzling parabolas in the air as they shot towards the distant demon army. The golden light expanded continuously in the air, carrying a unique, scorching aura. By the time it reached the demon army, it had transformed into nine dazzling miniature suns, unleashing a torrent of intense light that illuminated the dark area.

For demons who dwell in darkness year-round, pure light energy is their most deadly nemesis. Without a command, a large number of demons unleashed their attacks on the nine "mini suns".

Boom boom boom! ! !
Nine level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells exploded with a bang a thousand meters above the demon army.

In an instant, the world, which was originally as black as ink, was suddenly illuminated, the light so intense that it was as if day had arrived.

This is the improved level nine fixed-equipment soul guide device by Xia Die.

It is called "Sun-Chasing Radiance" and possesses sacred light, brightness, and purification.

Although it is only a level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell, its power against demons is comparable to that of a level ten soul-guided cannon shell.

Under that dazzling light, some demons didn't even have time to scream before their bodies were completely purified by the pure power of light and vanished into the world.

The demons in the distance continued to wail. Sensing the terrifying power of light ahead, countless demons wanted to stop, but how could the charging army behind them stop so easily?

A large number of demons were swept into the light, their bodies instantly dissolved.

At this moment, the true power of human civilization's weapons was clearly revealed to the demon.

Under the nine beams of holy light, the dense army of demons, as numerous as a tidal wave, was completely annihilated within a radius of ten thousand meters.

In an instant, the area within a radius of 10,000 meters around the gate was completely cleared.

"Have you had enough?"

Just then, a figure emerged from the remaining ripples of energy—it was a demon, surrounded by a dark aura that was completely different from that of ordinary demons.

Just like before, he was greedy.

This demon was nearly 10,000 meters tall, seemingly covering the sky. Its entire body was covered in dark purple lava armor, with dark red magma flowing from the gaps in the armor. Every step it took caused the ground to crack and smoke.

The grotesque skull of a demon, exceeding a kilometer in diameter, has eye sockets that resemble two volcanoes burning with eternal flames, and spews forth pillars of fire a kilometer long from its nostrils. Its gigantic mouth splits open to both sides of the skull, revealing hundreds of thick, curved fangs as thick as mountains, coated with black venom capable of corroding space itself. Behind it are two pairs of sky-covering, fiery bone wings, each with a wingspan of fifty thousand meters.

His right hand held a giant axe made of pure black metal and lava, the blade wreathed in destructive energy; his left hand wore a metal claw sheath covered with spikes.

Demon King, Wrath, one of the original ten kings directly split from the demonic consciousness.

"Demon King - Wrath"

"Destiny: Gluttony/Destruction"

"Introduction: One of the ten kings of the demon plane, representing 'wrath,' the Flame King who forged the flames. Do not attempt to provoke Him, for the consequences are unimaginable."

"Oh my, Ara, another beautiful world. Upon closer inspection, there are quite a few handsome men and beautiful women here. Considering your considerable strength, now kowtow and submit. I will allow you to fall at the feet of my demonic lord, the pomegranate skirt of desire."

A demon who looked like a human woman appeared. She was nearly three meters tall, with a slender figure like a ghost under the moon, and her skin was so pale that it was almost transparent. A faint crimson mist surrounded her.

She had the typical features of a human woman, with delicate features like a perfect sculpture. Her eyes were varying shades of scarlet, with upturned corners that gave her a captivating allure. She had long red hair with fine black strands of light wrapped around the ends.

She wore a long, flowing, bright red dress with layers of fabric resembling blooming blood flowers. The dress was embroidered with eerie dark gold patterns—seemingly harmonious vines, but actually intertwined chains; the neckline opened to her collarbone, revealing a dark red mark on her neck.

Holding a semi-transparent, blood-red folding fan in his right hand, he walked barefoot in the void, leaving fleeting red footprints with each step, and dark vines that devour energy sprouted from the footprints.

He is desire.

"Demon King - Desire"

"Destiny: Destruction and Harmony"

"Introduction: One of the ten kings of the demon plane, representing 'desire.' She weaves traps with beauty and seduction, causing countless planes to self-destruct in the illusion of 'sharing desire.' Her 'harmony' is never peaceful, but rather uses mental shackles to bind all beings, and then harvests all out-of-control desires with 'destruction'—for her, chaotic resonance and utter annihilation are the perfect ending for 'desire.'"

"They don't deserve it. At best, they're only fit to be slaves to the lowest-ranking demons in our demon plane."

A demon resembling the Asura race appeared, standing ten thousand meters tall, like an eternal colossal figure of purplish-black color. Its shoulders were over five thousand meters wide, and every line of its body was filled with overwhelming power. Even when still, it exuded a majestic aura that made all things seem like ants.

Its entire body is covered in purplish-black skin, the surface of which is covered with hard keratin like obsidian. Its muscular muscles are as angular as solidified granite, and dark golden energy patterns flow between the muscle textures.

It has six arms, each four thousand meters long, with giant hands covered in thick bone armor at the end of each arm, and different protective runes imprinted on the palms; its back has two rows of twelve bone spikes, each ten thousand meters long, with tips that gleam with a cold light capable of tearing through energy shields.

Its head is relatively small compared to its body, about one kilometer in diameter. Its facial features are as hard as if carved by a knife, and its eyes are burning dark golden flames, with only contempt for all existence in its gaze. Three curved giant horns grow on the top of its head.

He is one of the Ten Kings, the Arrogant One.
"Demon King - Pride"

"Destruction/Preservation"

"One of the ten kings of the demon plane, representing 'arrogance,' it has never had the concept of 'retreat' or 'equality' since its existence—its 'preservation' is only to protect its 'sole dominance,' and its 'destruction' is only to eliminate all existences that 'dare to look it in the eye.'"
