Li Che grapples with immense pressure as the Deceit Demon Cave targets his daughter Xi Xi, with the Black Bull Demon God Venerable poised to strike through spies like the Night Bat Demon God. Determined to protect her, he resolves to accelerate his cultivation to confront a Two Calamities Demon God within Qi Tian City. Concealing his presence with the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit, Li Che silently approaches the spying Night Bat Demon God hanging in the void. The Night Bat, detecting the intrusion, unleashes an ultrasonic scream to alert his master, but rebounds against an invisible barrier, injuring himself before summoning his Lich Disaster Wheel to escape.

The void shattered bit by bit.

Suddenly, the Night Bat Demon God detected enormous dark chains emerging from the void, ensnaring his limbs.

His bat wings beat wildly, releasing the complete might of the One Disaster and Two Tribulations, almost snapping the restraints.

But at some point, the Netherworld Ox Demon had positioned himself near one of the chains.

Clatter.

A huge arm swung out, seizing the jet-black links with its crook.

An overwhelming power burst forth from his frame.

Boom——

The Night Bat Demon God, who was thrashing his wings, sensed an unstoppable pull exploding from the Ox Demon.

Suddenly, the Night Bat Demon God's form was yanked into a pitch-dark metropolis.

Overwhelmed by dread, the Night Bat Demon God unleashed waves of supersonic pulses without cease!

Buzzzzz——

However, silence met his efforts, without even a hint of reaction.

This zone, undoubtedly part of Qi Tian City, stood fully cut off by some unseen force!

The Black Bull Demon God Venerable... remained utterly unaware of his plight!

A piercing, hopeless cry echoed.

The Night Bat Demon God, a creature of shadows, found himself swallowed by the abyss.

City Lord’s Mansion.

At the head of the round table, the Black Bull Demon God Venerable lounged, surrounded by swirling demonic aura that veiled his figure in haze.

His enormous bull head featured eyes sharp and intense.

His senses scanned the skies above Qi Tian City, monitoring the chaos at the three gate districts.

“It’s split clean: powerhouses from the Western Regions Buddha Land strike the South Gate, Wushen Mountain cultivators assault the North Gate, and elite forces from the Da Jing Dynasty alongside various Divine Sects and Ancient Families target the West Gate…”

“The Human Race really struggles to band together. If only they could unite like us Demons. Sure, our Demon Race has a rigid structure, but that very order forges our unbreakable solidarity. A single command from me, and it’s obeyed without question—no demon would dare betray!”

The Black Bull Demon God Venerable gave a subtle grin.

He was convinced that against such a cohesive Demon Race, the world’s destiny lay with demons, and the global arena would be theirs!

No update had arrived from the Night Bat. To stay safe, the Night Bat checked in on the Netherworld Ox Demon every three incense sticks’ duration.

Since the three sticks hadn’t yet burned out, the Black Bull Demon God Venerable paid it no heed, keeping his focus on the human experts clashing against Qi Tian City at the main entrances.

Yet, for no clear reason, the Black Bull Demon God Venerable felt a creeping restlessness.

He couldn’t pinpoint the source of this discomfort.

Mo City Fengdu.

Myriad Mo Yu detonated in a frenzy.

Clatter, clatter——

That noise came from chains ripping apart under force, chased by a thunderous sonic blast.

A silhouette, propelled like a projectile, got dragged downward from Mo City’s celestial canopy.

Thunk——!

Li Che, masked as the Bull Demon, tensed his body sharply, muscles and bones coiling like iron ropes twisted into knots.

A cataclysmic strength, capable of rending the cosmos, surged outward.

Thunk!

Li Che slammed down at speed, gouging a huge crater into Mo City’s surface!

Still, four chains remained gripped firmly under Li Che’s arms.

The far ends of those chains pulled straight, linking to the colossal bat-headed Night Bat Demon God high above.

A gigantic bat with feline traits, wings stretching a hundred zhang, blotting out the heavens!

Thick demonic energy billowed upward, and this One Disaster and Two Tribulations demon god thrashed with savage fury right then.

Awe-inspiring power kept surging, fracturing the fabric of space with myriad fissures!

The whirlwind tore through city sands, structures, and earth, shredding them in an instant.

“Netherworld Ox Demon——!!!”

A howl tore free.

The resulting tremors raced outward, pulsing along Mo City’s lanes and blasting numerous barriers to bits.

Even Li Che, concealed by the Bull Demon Mask, couldn’t suppress a slight grimace.

A faint pressure built in his skull, threatening to split it open.

Clatter——

Letting go with his arms, the chains fractured one segment after another!

Bursting into ebony vapor, it rained down over the firmament.

The Night Bat Demon God seethed with rage and ire!

But Li Che had zero interest in bantering with the Night Bat Demon God.

After all, under the watch of that Black Bull Demon God Venerable, he needed to swiftly eliminate this One Disaster and Two Tribulations demon god, so speed was essential.

Via the Heaven and Earth chessboard, Li Che understood that every three incense sticks, this Night Bat Demon God updated the Black Bull Demon God Venerable on the Ox Demon’s status.

Should three sticks elapse without word, the Black Bull Demon God Venerable would detect the irregularity.

With two incense sticks already gone and just one left, Li Che had to dispatch the Night Bat Demon God fast and seize the soul!

He snapped his finger.

A dark chess token flew toward the enormous Night Bat Demon God hovering with frantic wingbeats.

Mid-flight, the chess piece detonated.

Black fog billowed forth, resembling an ocean unleashing monstrous swells!

In the following instant.

A vast and horrifying demonic aura detonated, its crushing weight slamming down and sending the Night Bat Demon God’s heart racing.

A demon god at One Disaster and Three Tribulations!

Sea Flipping Nine Infants!

Nine heads twisted in motion, featuring two dragon heads, one crane, and one leopard!

The moment the Night Bat Demon God spotted the crane and leopard heads, his breathing froze solid.

“Heavenly Crane Demon God?!”

Was the Heavenly Crane Demon God truly fused into this mighty demon god’s form?!

What sort of wicked method was this?!

Netherworld-bearing, such a malevolent Demon Sect?!

The Night Bat Demon God’s fur bristled, death’s peril igniting with peak ferocity; he beat his wings, fully igniting the Disaster Wheel!

“Screech——!!!”

The Night Bat Demon God’s fur stood rigid, yet in that instant, a single idea dominated.

Stall!

Buy time!

Only thirty minutes more—if he could hold out that long...

The Black Bull Demon God Venerable, missing his update, would know something went wrong!

Then, rescue might come!

Stall!

A One Disaster and Three Tribulations demon god...

Immensely strong, utterly strange...

But holding for thirty minutes? He could do it!

Boom——!!!

A fearsome presence detonated with flair, golden qi-blood erupting like a radiant beam bridging sky and ground!

The Netherworld Ox Demon stomped forward, akin to a sacred peak erupting from the soil; Qi Gate divine seeds manifested and burst ferociously, qi-blood roaring like a boundless tide, demolishing the peak.

Scattering it into crumbling shards like a seal!

Time ticked relentlessly!

Killing intent flared!

Across the world, it felt as if an incense burned in silence.

As though a countdown to doom.

With a thump, the Night Bat Demon God spewed blood nonstop, his gigantic demonic frame teetering on collapse.

The One Disaster and Three Tribulations Sea Flipping Nine Infants proved overwhelmingly dominant; the Night Bat Demon God poured every ounce of effort into mere survival.

But hold on, stall...

Simply thirty minutes!

Just last thirty minutes!

In Qi Tian City.

The Black Bull Demon God Venerable felt an odd twinge of disquiet, born from his demonic soul’s instincts!

This instinct sharpened, the disquiet swelling fiercer.

Still, he couldn’t trace its root.

From the demon gods at the three gates?

Another fallen like the Heavenly Crane, slain in battle?

Unlikely—the Black Bull Demon God Venerable had warned them clearly: yield right away if defeat loomed, and he’d step in without delay.

“So... what’s fueling this disquiet?”

Abruptly.

The Black Bull Demon God Venerable narrowed his gaze.

“Night Bat Demon God!”

The Black Bull Demon God Venerable leaped to his feet.

Boom——

Vast demonic energy roared, the emptiness cracking apart.

The three incense sticks’ moment...

Rushed ever closer!

Night Bat...

The disquiet intensified wildly; the Black Bull Demon God Venerable lunged, explosive demonic energy ripping through the city.

Instantly forming a linear obsidian surge.

Materializing at the Bull Demon Courtyard.

His potent demonic soul probed, finding Niu Yi, Niu Er, and fellow Netherworld Evil Ones meditating calmly inside.

He reached the spot concealing the Night Bat.

There, space split open.

Slowly, the rift expanded.

Exposing the Night Bat Demon God’s grinning visage.

“Venerable, what brings you here?”

“The three incense sticks just wrapped up; I was on the verge of reporting to you.”
