Primordial Era: I rule the great sect and command all immortals.

A vast army of tens of millions of immortals coalesced into a cloud stretching for hundreds of millions of miles, confronting the armies of the three great demon emperors from afar.

This time, Jiang Ziya and his companions not only had more people and greater strength, but Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun also personally bestowed upon them precious treasures.

The previous battle between Rahu and Cundi Buddha Mother gave the saints confidence, so there was no need to proceed slowly. All forces accelerated their progress.

Amidst auspicious clouds, banners fluttered and the thunderous sound of drums carried out, signaling that war was imminent.

Jiang Ziya addressed the assembled powerful immortals, saying, "By the decree of the sages of both religions, the great war in the Demon Realm has reached a point where it must be resolved. Today, I urge all immortals to unite and work together to decisively defeat the three Demon Emperors—the Crimson Abyss Demon Emperor, the Dark Demon Emperor, and the White Bone Demon Emperor—and thus complete the magnificent feat of unifying the Eastern Continent!"

All the immortals knew that this great battle was ordered by the two sages, and no one dared to neglect it. They all bowed and replied, "We will obey the sages' orders!"

When the demon army was also organized and positioned on the opposite bank of the "Three Lives River," forming a standoff with them.

Before setting out, Jiang Ziya brought out tens of thousands of captured demon warriors, dragged them to the front of the battle, made them kneel on the clouds, and prepared to be beheaded in front of the battle to sacrifice to the flag.

Prepare to boost your team's morale.

"brute!!!"

On the other side of the "River of Three Lives", the three Demon Emperors were filled with grief and indignation upon seeing this scene. The Human and Chan sects were truly ruthless, even killing prisoners. Jiang Ziya was truly not a human being!

"Hmph! Slay!"

However, Jiang Ziya remained unmoved by these insults. He had always acted this way when he was in the human realm. What's so special about you demons?

Anyone who dares to wage war against the two religions is an enemy, and enemies must die!

The immortals of the Human Sect and the Chan Sect remained calm and composed, true to the orthodox teachings of the Xuanmen, possessing both compassion and wrathful fury towards their enemies.

These demons clashed with the two sects, resulting in heavy casualties for both sects. Even core disciples like the Eight Immortals perished. With such deep-seated hatred, what does killing some prisoners and offering sacrifices to the flag matter?

"Snap!!!"

With a command from Grand Marshal Jiang Ziya, tens of thousands of swordsmen and axemen struck simultaneously, beheading one demon prisoner after another. In an instant, the auspicious clouds were stained with blood.

A chilling aura filled the air, causing the armies of both sects to tense up, their eyes turning bloodshot, and a fierce killing intent emanating from them.

On the other side, within the demon army, the demon warriors were furious. If the three demon emperors hadn't given the order, they would have already charged forward and fought to the death with the Human Sect and the Chan Sect.

At this moment, the Crimson Abyss Demon Emperor was equally enraged. He drew his sword and shouted, "Jiang Ziya, if I capture you, I will make sure you suffer a terrible death!"

"Crimson Abyss Demon Emperor! Surrender at once! If our army arrives and captures you, you'll have a hard time even if you want to die!"

Jiang Ziya turned to the assembled immortals and asked, "Who will step forward to lead the army to victory?"

"Uncle-Master, I need to go."

As they spoke, it turned out to be Yang Jian, the True Lord of Qingyuan Miaodao, a third-generation disciple of the Chan Sect.

After the last defeat, Yuanshi Tianzun was furious and issued the Yuanshi Pardon. Disciples of the Human Sect and the Chan Sect, and even some people from the Heavenly Court, were all granted the pardon and had to go to the Demon Realm battlefield.

This guardian war god of the Chan sect is naturally indispensable.

At this moment, Yang Jian arrived and naturally became the first to appear.

"Good! Yang Jian, show us your skills and let the Demon Realm witness the might of my Chan Sect."

Jiang Ziya laughed heartily. This junior disciple could no longer be called Qingyuan Miaodao Zhenjun, but the new generation of Antarctic Longevity Emperor!

"Waaaaah"

As Yang Jian flew away from the camps of the Human and Chan sects, the entire surface of the "River of Three Lives" was suddenly filled with the sounds of ghosts wailing and gods howling. Countless black clouds shrouded the entire river surface, layer upon layer, and within the black clouds, it seemed that countless demons were roaring...

"Hmph! The same old trick again, trying to ambush me? There are so many demons in the storm, it seems the demon army is well prepared."

Yang Jian's expression changed, and he let out a long roar.

As soon as he arrived, Uncle Jiang Ziya explained to them the reason for the previous defeat in the great battle. The reason why the "River of Three Lives" was so difficult to cross was that demons were hiding inside, and anyone who tried to cross the river would be attacked.

At this moment, a demonic storm appeared on the "River of Three Lives," and many demons hid within it, launching an attack on Yang Jian.

This was not unexpected for Yang Jian.

Faced with these demons, Yang Jian activated the "Nine Revolutions Profound Technique," unleashing his unparalleled strength. With each swing of his "Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade," thousands upon thousands of demons turned into blood mist and fell into the "River of Three Lives."

Those demons have an innate ability to merge with storms, allowing them to walk and traverse through them, constantly ambushing cultivators. Unfortunately for them, this time, they encountered Yang Jian.

When the War God of the Chan Sect appeared, the storm that could blow away the physical body and shatter the primordial spirit had no effect at all. He remained as still as Mount Tai in the storm.

Amidst the massive storm surge, the winds and clouds shifted dramatically. Yang Jian fought for three full hours, slaying countless demons along the way. The Howling Celestial Hound was also released. This divine dog suddenly transformed into a gigantic dog ten thousand feet tall. With a single bite, it swallowed thousands upon thousands of demons, turning them into flesh and blood.

Among the allied forces of the Human Sect and the Chan Sect, many powerful cultivators showed expressions of horror. Was this the guardian war god of the Chan Sect?

Indeed, it's incredibly powerful!

If it were them, it would be difficult to keep killing like this!

According to some of their calculations, during the three-hour battle, Yang Jian killed a total of several million, nearly ten million, demons.

Yang Jian intended to establish his authority, so he didn't dodge at all. He just kept killing and killing without using any supernatural powers. He crossed the "River of Three Lives" and attacked the demon army on the other side!

This authority did indeed have an effect; the morale of the opposing side, which had been boosted by Jiang Ziya's killing of prisoners, was once again suppressed.

The three Demon Emperors' expressions turned grim, because this newcomer, Yang Jian, was on the same level as them, along with the previous Yu Ding Zhenren, Yun Zhongzi, Confucius, and Zhuangzi. It seemed that their situation was even more difficult this time.

It's hateful that the Human Sect and the Chan Sect are too ruthless. They don't even have a chance to surrender. They won't retain their current power at all. They will only become their cannon fodder and tools to maintain the rule of the Demon Realm.

In this situation, the three Demon Emperors were truly helpless.

Retreat is absolutely impossible. This is the greatest natural barrier in the Eastern Continent. If they abandon the "River of Three Lives," without the assistance of countless demons in the river, they will be unable to stop the armies of the Human Sect and the Chan Sect.

The three Demon Emperors had no confidence in defending themselves, which put them in a dilemma.

At this point, we can only take it one step at a time. If all else fails, we may have no choice but to wander into the outer reaches of space and roam the desolate edge of the universe.

When the four realms are unified and become the primordial world, that will be the moment they return.

Just as the three Demon Emperors were feeling conflicted, Yang Jian, accompanied by his Howling Celestial Hound, became even more ferocious. The storm on the "River of Three Lives" seemed to be fighting against Yang Jian, not only failing to weaken but becoming even more violent.

The waters of the "Three Lives River" surged forth, creating towering waves. This water of the "Three Lives River" is no ordinary water; it is the "source water" of the demon realm, the lifeblood of the demon race and the origin of their race.

However, for those who practice the Dao of Immortality, it is extremely poisonous, a poisonous water that completely clashes with their Dao of Immortality. Let alone drinking it, even if one comes into contact with it, one would need to use magical power to refine it away.

Giant waves rolled and surged, and even Yang Jian had to carefully dodge them, as the "Jade Purity Immortal Light" emanating from his body never stopped.

After this War God of the Chan Sect attained the quasi-sainthood, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable greatly praised him and bestowed upon him a great reward. Several treasures on Yang Jian's body were also personally refined by the sage, all of which were integrated with extinct innate spiritual objects to create high-grade innate spiritual treasures and top-grade innate spiritual treasures.

Even if the "Three Lives River Water" occasionally stained the armor, it could not leave a trace on that "Celestial Silver Armor".

Three more hours passed, and a huge whirlpool formed in the "River of Three Lives," while the storm in the sky became even more violent, and the demons within grew increasingly powerful.

Some of the demons seemed to possess the cultivation levels of Taiyi Golden Immortals and Daluo Golden Immortals. Groups and teams of these numerous demons, when they came together, would cause even Quasi-Saints to flee in disarray.

Despite the horrific scene, Yang Jian was sweating profusely. However, his cultivation had reached the late stage of Quasi-Saint, so he handled the situation with relative ease. He had only exhausted a lot of his magical power and was mentally fatigued, but it was impossible for him to be injured.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the "Three Lives River" exploded, and countless continuous riverbed mountain ranges appeared before everyone.

Upon seeing this scene, not only the Human Sect and the Chan Sect, but even the armies of the three Demon Emperors showed expressions of shock.

As the "Mother River" of the Demon Realm and the place of origin, this place holds too many secrets.

It can be said to be the largest mysterious place besides the Central Continent and the "Ancestral Demon Palace", far surpassing the other continents. Even demon gods would find it difficult to penetrate to the deepest part of this place.

The three great demon emperors, Crimson Abyss Demon Emperor, Dark Demon Emperor, and White Bone Demon Emperor, had tried to go down there, but after descending tens of thousands of miles, they could no longer continue. The pressure here was simply too great; even a quasi-saint would be torn to shreds.

Unexpectedly, due to Yang Jian's arrogance, the "River of Three Lives" showed unusual activity, revealing the scene on the riverbed.

In the sight of hundreds of millions of living beings, one can see huge ancient cities built in the mountains at the bottom of the river.

Deep in the riverbed, countless giant snakes with jet-black horns roam about, creating a world of demons and a kingdom of monsters.

"They're all Bashe!!!"

In the void, Yang Jian couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. At this moment, the war god of the Chan Sect began to retreat.

He was heading towards the army on the other side of the river!

Anyone who sees this scene would be shocked.

This is a legendary existence from the time of the calamity of ferocious beasts!

That was so long ago.

This race had become rare by the time of the Lich Wars, so it was unexpected that such a large number of Bashes existed in the "River of Three Lives".

The snake in the story of "Snake Swallowing Elephant" is the Bashe, which was used to swallow even ancient elephants whole in the era when ferocious beasts roamed freely.

Now, this legendary species has appeared, and it seems to be very dissatisfied with the current Human Sect and Chan Sect.

At this moment, in the riverbed, within the kingdom of the Bashe, billowing, dense demonic energy emerged. This demonic energy permeated outwards, forming a massive protective shield that enveloped the entire armies of the Human Sect and the Chan Sect.

In this kingdom of the Bashe, from the inside out, there are strict ranks of Quasi-Saints, Great Luo Golden Immortals, Taiyi Golden Immortals, Golden Immortals... layer upon layer, and all the Bashe roar to the sky.

This demon kingdom, hidden deep within the "River of Three Lives," has reappeared in the world.

One after another, demon cities rose from the ground and flew into the void. In the core area, there were millions of Bashes, and outside of the Bashes, there were hundreds of millions of demon beasts and monsters.

These creatures are all aquatic, and each one is extremely powerful; there are none below the level of a Celestial Immortal.

When all eighteen demon cities appeared above the "River of Three Lives," they emitted a verdant light, and a massive city emerged from beneath the riverbed of the "River of Three Lives."

"Boom!"

What a colossal city this is!

The enormous city, spanning hundreds of millions of miles, cast a massive shadow in the void as soon as it appeared, seemingly obscuring most of the eastern continent.

The armies of the Human Sect, the Chan Sect, and the Demon Clan all retreated in disarray.

They each retreated hundreds of millions of miles, almost reaching the border of the Eastern Continent.

Before this colossal city, everyone felt pitifully insignificant.

"What is this?!"

"The King of the Bashes?"

"How could there be such a large creature?"

"We cannot defeat them by force!"

……

Everyone was dumbfounded and stunned, because from within that giant city coiled a gigantic serpent, each of its scales equivalent to a city.

A deep blue light emanated from these scales, making them incredibly eerie and terrifying.

This thing is hundreds of millions of miles in size!

No one expected that Yang Jian's slaughter of more than 20 million demons on the "River of Three Lives" would actually attract such a terrifying thing!

"For so many years, someone has dared to disturb the ancestor's slumber. Who is it? Who gave you ants the courage to cause trouble here?"

The booming voice came from the mouth of the King of the Bashe, each word like a thunderclap in a clear sky, making everyone's ears ring.

Even the three great demon emperors, Yun Zhongzi, Yu Ding Zhenren, Yang Jian, Confucius, Zhuangzi and other great supernatural beings were deeply terrified.

"The Primordial Limitless Golden Immortal!"

This was their only thought at the moment, and the thought made everyone tremble with fear, afraid to utter a word.

Several experts from the Renjiao and Chanjiao sects exchanged glances and began to pray using secret methods, preparing to ask the saints of the two sects to intervene, as this situation was no longer something they could handle.

As for the three Demon Emperors, they had already knelt down, bowing deeply, daring not to resist at all. (End of Chapter)
