441: Heaven and Earth Oven

The moment the voice fell, the will of the Dark Monarch, like an invisible storm, swept toward the Abyss Demon Realm and countless subsidiary planes.

At the edge of the planar battlefield, the Void Realm churned violently like boiling water.

One after another, giant spatial rifts, ten or a hundred times larger than before, were forcibly torn open!

Behind the rifts were endless demonic shadows, deafening demonic roars, and majestic Devilish Qi that was almost condensed into substance, corroding the space and leaving scars behind!

Rumble—!!!

First to surge out were the main forces of the four great Demon Catastrophe legions!

They were no longer the small vanguard units from before, but true, fully-organized, and armed-to-the-teeth planar conquest legions!

Each legion numbered in the tens of millions!

Their armor was more refined, their auras more fierce, and the military malevolent demonic clouds condensed above the legion battle formations blotted out the sky, with even faint phantoms of legion-level war beasts surging and roaring within them!

Following closely were the main legions of the various Demon Race kingdoms that had received the Monarch's mandatory conscription order.

The armies of the Blood River Demon Kingdom were like rushing rivers of blood, exuding a pungent scent of carnage and slaughter.

The legions of the Black Plague Demon Domain carried with them plague-ridden black winds that extinguished all life, leaving withered vegetation and weathered rocks in their wake.

The undead bone sea of the Skeleton Wasteland emitted silent shrieks, their pale bones assembling into various hideous war Puppets under some strange power...

One, two, ten, a hundred...

It was as if the entire war potential of the Demon Race had been crudely pried open by this single order from the Dark Monarch!

An endless stream of Demon Race armies, like a dam-bursting flood of world-destruction, surged madly from countless spatial rifts, pouring into this already overburdened planar battlefield!

The sky was completely obscured, and the earth groaned and trembled under billions of demonic hooves and feet.

The concentration of Devilish Qi climbed sharply, even beginning to distort light and corrode the Laws, turning this battlefield into a veritable Demon Domain!

Two hours.

Merely two hours.

The battlefield, which had originally been cleared by Lu Jiuyuan with a single palm, leaving only the ruins of a giant palm print, was once again filled, covered, and even... stacked with an endless, boundless Demon Race army!

The number, was it merely billions?

Two hundred million? Three hundred million? Five hundred million? Perhaps even more!

The sky, the ground, and even underground... every inch of space was crammed with hideous, roaring members of the Demon Race!

They were of various races, with strange and bizarre forms, but at this moment, they all exuded the same bloodlust and ferocity. Their scarlet demonic eyes, like billions of points of Hell fire, locked in unison onto that "pure land" in the center of the battlefield,

the deep pit where Lu Jiuyuan was located, and the Human Race defense line of eighty thousand surrounding him, as small as a lone reef in the ocean.

Pressure.

An indescribable, suffocating pressure brought about by an absolute quantity sufficient to cause any Peak Divine-Grade to suffer an instant mental breakdown!

Du Tianyu and the eighty thousand Nirvana warriors' faces were as pale as paper. Even with the protection of the Nirvana fire, and even with wills as tough as iron,

in the face of this terrifying formation that felt as if the entire Demon Race world was pressing down upon them, their bodies still trembled involuntarily, and breathing became incomparably difficult.

This was no longer a war.

This was a natural disaster! This was the end of the world!

"Senior... Senior Lu..." Du Tianyu looked back toward the center of the deep pit.

Lu Jiuyuan was still "sleeping" there, his snoring even, as if he were completely unaware of the earth-shattering changes around him.

"To be able to participate in a battle of this level, even if I die, it's worth it!"

Du Tianyu had long since disregarded life and death, and now, seeing this situation, the feeling was simply too thrilling.

Above the Void Realm, those few surviving Heavenly Demon Gods had long since retreated further away, joining with more Heavenly Demon Gods and Devil Emperor-level powerhouses who arrived subsequently, totaling dozens, nearly a hundred of them!

"To deal with one person, such a massive scene is actually required? This member of the Human Race is truly too interesting to the demons!"

"I feel my demonic blood boiling!"

"Even with unparalleled Divine Ability, in the face of this absolute power and quantity, one can only be exhausted to death!"

"The Monarch has ordered, annihilate him!"

"Attack—!!!"

Following the order from the highest command level.

Boom————————!!!!!

A destructive torrent that could not be described in any language erupted.

It was billions upon billions of attacks with different attributes and varying strengths, yet all equally filled with destructiveness, raining down from the sky, from the ground, from all directions, like an energy tide erupting at the dawn of the Universe, bombarding that small area in the center indiscriminately, fully covering it, and with infinite saturation!

Demonic flames gathered into a sea of fire that burned the firmament!

Venom condensed into acid rain that corroded everything!

Bone spears turned into a death storm that tore through the Void Realm!

Curses condensed into a dark tide that eroded the Soul!

Demonic power beams were as thick as mountains, and military malevolent impacts twisted like tornadoes!

There was also the breath exhaled by countless war beasts, the mountains thrown by giant magic statues, and the turbulent Laws released by strange demonic artifacts...

At this moment, it was as if the malice and destruction of the entire Demon Race world had turned into tangible attacks, wanting to completely erase Lu Jiuyuan and everything around him from this world!

Before the attacks even reached them, the terrifying pressure had already caused the flames on the surface of the eighty thousand Nirvana warriors to flicker unstably, and many groaned, spitting blood and collapsing directly to the ground!

Du Tianyu's eyes were splitting, roaring as he urged all his remaining strength, attempting to condense the "Nirvana Barrier" once again.

However, in the face of this world-destroying torrent of attacks, any defense appeared incomparably ridiculous and fragile.

Lu Jiuyuan, who had been "sleeping" all along, suddenly opened his eyes!

"All of you... get in here!"

He shouted in a low voice:

"The origin of unity returns, ten thousand worlds serve as fuel!"

"Heaven and earth serve as the furnace, creation serves as the artisan!"

"Heaven and Earth Furnace—Open!!"

"Rumble—!!!"

A terrifying roar, even more deafening than before, as if coming from the beginning of the creation of heaven and earth, exploded from within Lu Jiuyuan's body—no, from every inch of space around him!

That grayish light sphere that had originally only covered a hundred zhang and was used to swallow attacks instantly expanded, transformed, and evolved!

It transformed back into that "Ten Thousand Worlds Furnace" Domain, covering ten thousand miles, woven from the veins of countless worlds, both illusory and solid!

The world veins on the furnace wall were clearer and more complex, as if billions of stars were flowing, living, and dying within them!

Crimson-gold Nirvana True Flames burned fiercely on the furnace wall, turning into countless phantoms of Phoenixes, Dragons, and Golden Crows, emitting clear cries and roars!

They were enacting the cycle of the world from birth to extinction!

The incomparably overbearing "Refining" and "Swallowing" Concepts erupted, instantly filling the ten thousand-mile range covered by the furnace!

This was not just a defense; it was an active, greedy super furnace that wanted to throw everything into it to be calcined!

"A formidable Refining Domain, what a suicidal fighting method!"

"Attack! Smash it!"

That torrent of billions upon billions of world-destroying attacks, the moment the furnace took shape, had already slammed fiercely against the furnace wall!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom—!!!

Indescribably dense explosions erupted on the surface of the furnace wall!

Demonic flames, poisonous rain, bone spear storms, cursed tides, demonic power beams, military malevolent tornadoes... all attacks slammed solidly onto the furnace!

The ten-thousand-mile furnace trembled violently, light flashed wildly on the furnace wall, the world veins flickered unstably, and there even appeared large-scale depressions and distortions!

The Nirvana True Flames were extinguished in large swathes, and the rotation of the Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water elements evolving within the furnace also became sluggish!
