Throne of Gods: Divine thunder descends, and the Qilin descends upon the world!

Chapter 131 The Demon Emperor Arrives at Exorcism Pass, the Holy War Begins!
Upon hearing this, Cai'er's delicate face instantly flushed red, and even her fair neck was tinged with a faint pink.

"Why are you acting like a child?" She bit her lower lip lightly, her voice barely audible, her fingertips unconsciously tightening around the hem of her clothes.

Yuehui chuckled softly, deliberately moving even closer: "It's not impossible, Cai'er's mom~"

Cai'er lowered her head shyly, her long eyelashes trembling slightly.

After a moment of silence, she slowly raised her slightly trembling hand and gently pulled down the shoulder strap of her nightgown.

Moonlight's eyes darkened, and she immediately leaned down and kissed him.

(Dafuku is Haochi!)

...

As dawn broke, the moonlight gently embraced Cai'er's slender waist and carried her back to the Tower of Eternity.

The girl still had faint red marks on her neck, and her legs were slightly weak when she walked, but Yuehui steadily supported her.

The moment you step into the tower, abundant attribute-free energy washes over your entire body like a spring breeze.

"Seclusion... has begun..." Yuehui kissed Cai'er's forehead, his purple-gold eyes filled with determination.

"Hmm~"

Cai'er nodded gently, and they walked hand in hand toward the seventh floor.

Pure white energy gathered at the top of the tower, forming a cocoon of light that enveloped the entire tower.

Thus began a long period of secluded spiritual practice.

...

Three months later.

The Central Province of the Demon Clan, inside the Demon Heart Palace.

Feng Xiu stared at the pale-faced Vasak, her brows furrowed: "Third brother, how are you feeling?"

Vasak smiled calmly and waved his hand: "It's nothing, just a slight loss of lifespan. But the gains from this Great Prophecy are worth the price. Brother, don't you want to hear the results?"

“If I had a choice,” Feng Xiu sighed, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes, “I would rather not have this prophecy. What you have lost is far more than just a few years of lifespan. I can feel that your vitality has diminished by at least a hundred years.”

His voice was slightly deep, "The Star Demon race has a limited lifespan to begin with, and this time... it has damaged their very essence."

Agares, who was standing nearby, quietly stepped forward and put his hand on Vasak's shoulder.

Complex emotions surged in the Moon Demon God's eyes, but he ultimately remained silent.

“Second Brother, there’s no need for that.” Vasak gently patted Agares’s hand, a warm smile appearing in his orange-red eyes.
"Your expression makes me uneasy. You'll be fine once you recover your lost vitality."

He abruptly changed the subject, his expression turning solemn, "The most urgent matter is the outcome of this prophecy."

Vasak's orange-red eyes sparkled: "Over the past year, I have pushed the Great Prophecy to its limit and finally located Austin Griffin's position—right in the Holy City of Man!"

Agares and Fengxiu both tensed up at the same time.

Fengxiu immediately looked at Agares: "Second brother, has Moonbeam sent back any news about Austin Griffin?"

Agares shook his head: "The letter says that Austin Griffin's presence has not been detected, and none of the magical beasts found in the past year have been related to the Divine Punishment. He believes that the closest clue may be with Chen Hongyu, the Lord of the Soul Temple."

Feng Xiu frowned slightly. He knew Chen Hongyu's natal contracted beast. Although they were both chimeras, it was not the God of Divine Punishment, Austin Griffin.

"Third brother, do you know exactly where Griffin is hiding?" Fengxiu asked.

Vasak shook his head: "I can't predict that. I can only confirm that it's in the Holy City and has become a contract partner of some human."

His orange-red eyes flickered slightly: "However, I have seen a terrifying power hidden within the human temple alliance. I do not know where this power comes from."

"But I can say for sure that it's definitely not those titled demon hunter groups. Titled demon hunter groups are a significant threat, but their numbers are ultimately limited."

Vasak's voice grew increasingly deep: "And that hidden, terrifying power is faintly capable of contending with our three races."

"But as a last resort, humanity will probably not use this power."

Upon hearing Vasak's words, Feng Xiu's face suddenly darkened, and a cold glint flashed in her eyes:
"I never imagined that the human race would harbor such power. It seems a holy war is inevitable. The most deadly threats are the lurking ones; we must force them to reveal their trump cards!" Vasak gently shook his head: "Brother, wait a moment. Although this power is strong, I see it is declining."

"It will die out on its own in at most twenty years. As long as we don't drive humanity to the brink of extinction during this period, humans will not use it easily."

Agares frowned: "Won't the humans activate it on their own?"

“That’s precisely the strange thing.” Vasak’s eyes sparkled. “In my Great Prophecy, the human race is filled with fear and rejection of this power.”

"Therefore, I can be certain that unless humanity faces extinction, they will absolutely not use this power lightly."

Feng Xiu remained silent for a moment, then asked in a deep voice, "Third brother, in your opinion, I shouldn't have started this holy war?"

“No!” Vasak shook his head decisively. “It must be opened. Humanity has grown too powerful after thousands of years of recuperation and must be weakened.”

His orange-red eyes flashed with a cold light: "Moreover, our clan has an excess of low-level troops, which has become a burden. This is a good opportunity to deplete them."

“Most importantly—” Vasak’s voice suddenly sharpened, “Austin Griffin must be eliminated! Humanity must be forced to hand it over!”

Feng Xiu slowly nodded, his eyes growing increasingly murderous: "Indeed. Humanity needs to be weakened, our population needs to be reduced, and the Griffin must be destroyed, ideally forcing humanity to reveal its trump cards!"

Having made up his mind, the Demon Emperor suddenly rose from his throne, his black robes fluttering even without wind.

"Then, I will personally announce to the human race—"

"The Holy War begins!"

……

Exorcism Pass.

It was not the season for autumn attacks, and the area inside and outside the pass was peaceful.

Apart from necessary sentry posts, most of the soldiers guarding the city were either training in the drill ground or practicing in the barracks.

Suddenly, the world changed color.

A ten-mile-diameter beam of dark gold pierced the sky, instantly swallowing all light.

The surface of the pillar of light was covered with strange magical patterns, and a lifelike black dragon coiled around it, with a mesmerizing dark purple demonic flame dancing in its eyes.

"Humans, come out!"

The Demon Emperor's voice boomed like thunder.

Within the Assassin's Sanctuary, the Holy Moon suddenly soared into the air.

When he finally saw the black-robed figure standing in mid-air, cold sweat instantly soaked through his back.

"The Demon God Emperor?!"

Saint Moon's pupils constricted, completely bewildered as to why this supreme demon would suddenly descend upon Exorcism Pass.

"Your Majesty is quite leisurely, having time to visit my Exorcism Pass."

Before the words were even finished, six dazzling beams of light suddenly shot into the sky.

Two golden rays, like the blazing sun breaking through the dawn, and a blue-purple ray, like thunder piercing the sky, intertwined with milky white holy light and blue-red radiance to form a sky-covering barrier.

Although it did not possess the earth-shattering power of the Demon God Pillar, it still managed to tear apart the deathly pressure that enveloped the entire city.

"It's you again."

Feng Xiu looked indifferently at the six figures that appeared—it was the Demon God's Fall Demon Hunter Team.

His black robe fluttered slightly, and his voice was as cold as ice: "Very well, I have come today to inform you to hand over all the three or more demonic beasts in the Holy City."

"One month is the deadline. If you don't hand it over—"

The Demon Emperor's figure began to fade, leaving only the final ultimatum echoing between heaven and earth:

"The Holy War begins now!"
