The darkness dissipated, Binghe opened her eyes, and suddenly found herself in a cylindrical glass cabin filled with a strange liquid. Being submerged in the liquid did not affect her breathing.

Looking outside, he saw that the room was full of glass cabins like his own. Miaomiao and Zi Ting were not far away, also observing their surroundings with confused looks on their faces.

No sound could be transmitted, and this strange water seemed to prevent all actions except opening eyes and breathing. It seemed that someone had taken him away.

After a while, a group of people with human bodies and animal heads, wearing white scientific research work clothes, walked in, holding various instruments that could not be named.

Bing He's eyes widened. Although this place was unfamiliar, he recognized the strange emblem engraved on those people's work clothes. It was a black background with a skull with a circle of claws in the center. It was the Hundred Beasts Gate!

Suddenly, a feeling of despair surged in my heart: It's over, it's all over. Unless the Lord Demon comes to save us, we will definitely be turned into mutant creatures.

……

In a dark and damp pile of junk, Galantina regained her five senses. Looking around, she found Jack not far away, still in a coma.

Below him was a hill of bones piled up by various creatures, as well as the remains of various unknown plants. In the distance was endless darkness, and vaguely he could see terrain similar to the sewers outside the Mirage Forest.

She only remembered that before she lost consciousness, she heard someone calling himself "Demon Lord". Wasn't that her man's former title? But she was absolutely sure that it wasn't Ying Li who did it.

"Hey! Wake up!"

Galantina patted Jack's face, and he frowned and opened his eyes reluctantly.

"Mm~ Master's wife has a really good physique. She woke up so quickly. I'm so jealous... no, so envious."

Galantina hit her with a hammer again. It seemed that she could not rely on this guy. Ying Li was not here, and her little fox was not here either. It seemed that she had lost herself.

"It hurts... No! Please continue to punish me, Master's wife." Jack said, covering his head.

"There's no point in punishing you! Get up quickly, you lost my man and you have to find him for me!" Galanthe said viciously.

"As ordered."

As he spoke, Jack actually took action. She concentrated her mind, and a ray of divine thought went straight into the sky through her eyes.

Wherever the divine consciousness passed, detailed terrain appeared in his mind one by one. It was an underground reservoir connected to a secret base, and nothing beyond that could be seen.

"Let's go, Master's wife."

Jack's gaze was firm. She had to perform well in front of Galantina so that her master Ying Li would pay more attention to her.

At the same time, Ying Li was involved in a dispute between sects. He stood in front of a statue inlaid with black crystals, infusing each crystal with dark flames, while a group of black-clad mages behind him added various buff magics for him.

"Come on! Mr. Ying Li, whether we can make it through this depends on you!"

"Shh! Don't disturb me while I'm casting a spell!"

"Ah! We are so unlucky to have met so many enemies at the same time!"

Perhaps this is fate. Ying Li meets the people from "The Underworld" again in this place called "Sanders Island".

Time goes back to one day ago——

"What did you say? The astronomical observatory... was besieged? How many people?"

"There were originally a lot of them, but... they withdrew. Only the Hundred Beast Sect and the Five Poison Valley are participating in the battle, and the Tang Sect is watching. We can hold on for now."

Ying Li passed by a demon sect's stronghold and overheard a conversation between a high-ranking official. It seemed that one of their people was besieged by enemies from various sects and the situation was extremely urgent.

"This guy's clothes look familiar."

Ying Li quietly approached the red-faced man who was talking on the phone. In the state of "Mo Tianxing", he was a vague black mist.

"Hey! How can I help you break through? Or just give up the astrological observatory!" the man sighed.

On the other end of the phone:

"Impossible. I swore in front of the old demon king that I would never abandon the astrological platform before finding a new demon king! If you are afraid of death, then run away and tell the queen: Getuo died for the revival of the demon clan, and I have no regrets in this life!"

Queen?

Although Ying Li had seen countless people who claimed to be emperors, the term "empress" spoken by a demon could further narrow the scope...

"Hey! What trouble are you in? Who is the empress he mentioned?" Ying Li decided to step forward and talk to her.

"Who?"

The opponent was startled by the sudden appearance of Ying Li, and quickly turned around and retreated, holding the staff surrounded by wind and waves, ready to fight.

"What's wrong? Cheng Zi, what's the situation over there?!" the person on the other end of the phone also shouted nervously.

Ying Li stood with his hands behind his back, unmoved, and said, "Are you from the Netherworld? I've been to the Bronze Moon and I know the leader of Lu Ze."

"Lu Ze?"

The phone was on speakerphone, and the two of them read it in unison, followed by silence for a while.

"May I ask your name, sir? Are you my friend of the Netherworld?" Cheng Zi asked politely after putting down his weapon.

"Friends? I guess so. I'm also a demon, at least I'm not an enemy. Can you tell me about your situation?"

After the two sides exchanged their identities, they quickly reached a strategic alliance. Ying Li learned that the main force of "Netherworld" collecting resources here was besieged by various sects and was struggling to resist on a place called "Astrology Platform".

The Astrological Tower is a kind of aerial fortress. Although most traditional demon sects have stood in the demon world for decades, their technological development is extremely backward and they rely on mage troops for air defense. This is the only advantage of the Netherworld.

According to Cheng Zi, this place is called Sandros Island, located in the Misty Sea in the west of the Eternal Night Empire. The fog in this sea area has existed since the catastrophe thousands of years ago. This is also an uncultivated land in the empire. All major forces suspect that there are many treasures hidden here.

Cheng Zi and Ge Tuo on the other end of the phone both hold the position of "Judge" in the "Underworld". They are under the jurisdiction of the senior cadre "Demon King". They command ordinary disciples in external operations and are one level lower than the leaders of the major branches.

The demon king behind the two men died hundreds of years ago, and none of his subordinate forces has been qualified to inherit the throne of the demon king, and they have been leaderless until now.

Generally, the hard work is assigned to them, while the other nine demon kings have various reasons to shirk their responsibilities, so this mining mission naturally falls on Cheng Zi and his team.

"Come with me, friend. Although they are surrounded, there is a teleportation beacon here. If you are willing, we can go back to reinforce them now!"

……

A black floating city hovers above a mountain covered with dead trees. Below it are a large number of dark rocks, like an inverted mountain. Above it are a group of majestic ancient castles, with various magic cannons and magic towers forming fortifications, and a layer of circular shield on the outermost layer.

This is the astronomical observatory of the Netherworld, a hybrid of technology and magic. Demons gather below, and strange magic dances in the sky, constantly bombarding the shield of the astronomical observatory.

Seeing that Ying Li had not made any progress for a long time, Cheng Zi came to the observation center to take a look at the situation below. His face changed drastically. Before, they were just a group of miscellaneous soldiers with empty numbers, but now all the fierce men from various demon sects have arrived. Any one of them is an existence that he cannot afford to offend.

"The Hundred Beasts Sect", "Dream Devouring Sect", "Hehuan Sect", "Ashura Palace", "Red Palace", "Five Poison Valley", "Tang Sect"...

"Hold on until Mr. Ying Li finishes."

Cheng Zi could only comfort the anxious people in this way. Ying Li couldn't be disturbed now. Maybe this mysterious man could create a miracle?

"Humph! It looks like they are going to put up a desperate fight!"

The one who spoke was Xing Chu from the "Beast Gate". This time he was once again ordered to come here to open up an unknown area.

"Is it possible that they have a backup plan, such as... a powerful foreign aid? "Youming" has always been very cunning!"

A sinister voice sounded among the crowd. The tall and pale man guessed quite accurately that he was Ouyang Xu, the "Poison Master" from the "Five Poison Valley".

As she spoke, she pretended to be elegant by swinging her sleeves and opening the purple fan in her hand. Her ancient costume was mainly purple and black, full of weirdness from beginning to end.

His words undoubtedly made the demons present look more cautious, but Xing Chu said disdainfully: "Mr. Du's analysis makes sense, but I don't think they can stop so many of us!"

“Elder Xing and everyone else, don’t be anxious. When it comes to the hatred with those rats, our Dream Devouring Sect is no less than you. He can’t escape a single cent of the debt he owes them, but rushing to achieve success can easily lead to problems…”

The demons looked at the man who was speaking. His black and red clothing came from the number one demon sect in the northern continent: the Dream Devouring Sect, which was one of the most powerful demons present.

"Oh? What does Captain Wuda think?" Xing Chu's face trembled and he asked in a cold voice.

"Hey~ Don't forget, it's not just us who come here... there are also those famous and upright sects who claim to be righteous, and there is also the "Iron Blood Alliance"! " Wu Da laughed cruelly.

"..."

A chill blew across everyone's cheeks. Feeling this strangeness, everyone looked at the man in black who was standing at the back and had his eyes closed.

The man was tall, with a black robe covering most of his body and a black hood covering half of his head. When he slowly opened his eyes, one could see a pair of scarlet phoenix eyes from a distance, which made people shudder.

Anyone with similar cultivation level could sense that he had the highest cultivation level among all the people present.

The man took off his hood, looked up at the astronomical table and fell silent.

"I suggest a quick victory. They have strong cohesion and morale. They firmly believe that they can handle the current situation..."

He spoke, and his extremely cold and gloomy voice made people feel like they were facing a zombie, without any warmth at all.

"Forehead……"

Everyone was speechless. The other party's words were vague and it was difficult to guess the underlying meaning. He just gave a strategic approach.

"Mr. Tang, can you explain it more clearly? My plan is to lure those people from the Holy Alliance here so that we can reap the benefits! What do you think?"

Wu Da dared to ask the question, but the master named Tang closed his eyes again.

"you……"

This was very embarrassing. Wu Da gritted his teeth and looked around, only to see that no one had expressed their opinion.

"Oh! Forget it... I'm going to do this. If you have similar interests, please follow me!"

Wu Da turned and left. Everyone looked at each other, and then the people from the Hehuan Sect, Shura Palace, and Red Palace followed him. The only ones left were the Beast Sect, the Five Poison Valley, and the Tang Sect, which had the smallest number of people.

The master named Tang who was resting with his eyes closed naturally belonged to the Tang Sect. There were six Tang Sect disciples on his left and right, each of them hiding their abilities. No one knew what their plans were for the upcoming battle.

"Hey! Everyone from the Tang Sect, aren't you going to take action?"

Xing Chu asked loudly. His disciples of the Hundred Beasts Sect had already transformed into wild beasts and were ready to attack the astrology platform.

A woman from the Tang Sect responded:

"Our deputy sect leader has ordered us to take a wait-and-see attitude towards Netherworld, unless those present here can prove that they can completely defeat the other party."

"What? Humph... This is nonsense. Can they beat us?" Xing Chu snorted angrily and turned around to prepare for a fight. It seemed that the Tang Sect had no intention of taking action for the time being.

The "Five Poison Valley" is good at using poison. They are responsible for long-range attacks to assist the "Hundred Beasts Gate", which also includes flank surprise attacks, but at present they must first gain an advantage on the front battlefield.

The "Tang Sect" and the "Five Poison Valley" are actually gathering places for poison masters and assassins. The two major sects often engage in a series of peer competitions, and they both have branches within the Eternal Night Empire.

The reason why the Tang Clan members did not take action this time was that they did not want to cooperate with their competitors. Another reason was that they disliked the barbarity and rudeness of the Hundred Beasts Clan.

The two sides have already started fighting. A large number of disciples from the Hundred Beasts Sect have transformed themselves into birds, insects and other creatures with the ability to fly and have begun to launch an offensive towards the Astrology Platform.

Under Cheng Zi's command, the observatory has risen to an altitude of 6000 meters above the ground, a distance that only airplanes can reach. Only a huge layer of dark clouds can be seen on the ground.

Various artillery batteries, bunkers, and arrow towers began to fire downwards, and the colorful attacks fell like a downpour. The layers of formations floating around the Star Lord Platform simultaneously lit up with magic light the moment the enemy launched an attack, and their powerful might was gradually revealed.

"Be careful! Sorcerer, break the formation!"

Xing Chu, who was supervising the battle on the ground, kept giving orders. He was very confident in the aerial combat capabilities of the disciples of the Beast Sect! But he could not guarantee that they could withstand those expensive and exquisitely constructed magic formations.

"Sorcerers" are a branch of magicians. They are good at control and auxiliary magic such as barrier arrays, illusion magic, summoning magic, etc.

They were very familiar with the magnificent formations in the sky. The Hundred Beasts Gate had specially dispatched nearly a hundred sorcerers for this operation just to deal with such troubles.

When the air combat troops were about to face a heavy rain of intensive bombing, layers of red barriers suddenly appeared on the disciples of the Beast Gate. Below them, a hexagonal magic circle was shining. This is the most basic barrier magic - "Blood Barrier Barrier"

At the same time, red rays flew up into the sky from all over the ground and launched a tentative attack on the large formation outside the astronomical platform. This is a common method used by sorcerers to break the formation. This attack has no name, it is simply to use one's own original magic power to touch the barrier itself. In this way, they can understand the function and structure of the barrier.

"Hmph! The Hundred Beasts Sect has made comprehensive preparations to annihilate us... We can't let them get what they want. Activate all killing formations!" Cheng Zi ordered.

After receiving the message, all the sorcerers on the astronomical platform cast two spells on a part of the killing array used for attack. One was used to activate all its firepower for a pouring output, and the other was aimed at the sorcerers of the Beast Gate...

Just as the sorcerers of the Beast Gate were busy casting spells to break the formation, all the killing formations in the sky lit up with a fleeting black light at the same time, and the next moment all the sorcerers who were trying to break the formations suddenly felt dazed...

"what--"

There were screams all around the Hundred Beasts Gate camp. The magic power of those sorcerers who were touched by the killing formation on the Netherworld side was drained away in an instant. They all turned pale and fainted. Their magic weapons were covered with a strange purple-black color.

On the astrological platform, Ying Li grinned after finishing the ritual. Through the observation hub, he saw his masterpiece. He only added enough Nether Flame to each killing array on the astrological platform to form a backlash magic.

"what?!"

Seeing this scene, Xing Chu panicked. What kind of sorcery was this? He also knew a little about barrier magic, but this was the first time he had seen such a scene. It was like a mental attack. Obviously, there was nothing coming, but so many sorcerers were killed out of thin air.

"Crackling..."

Immediately afterwards, countless thunder and lightning struck the Hundred Beasts Gate's position, and the killing formation in the sky began to show its power. Because it was a rainy day today, thunder-attribute attacks would produce an electric shock effect, which would be of great effect today.

This thunderous posture is like thousands of mages skilled in thunder magic performing magic together, and its power should not be underestimated.

Those air combat troops approaching the astrological observatory had long been reduced to ashes by the passing lightning. The troops on the ground promptly hid in the air-raid shelters prepared in advance. The Beast Gate was not stupid and naturally knew that this kind of weather was suitable for the use of lightning magic. The air-raid shelters were all equipped with lightning rods.

"Damn it! Can't break the formation? Then fight back, we will also form a formation and use the most powerful killing formation!"

"No, Elder Xing Chu. We are at a disadvantage. If we collide with each other, we will definitely suffer."

"Ah?! Then, what should we do? Where are the people from the Five Poison Valley? Hey! Don't just stand there and watch!"

When Xing Chu looked towards the Five Poison Valley position, he almost died of anger. It was really only the Hundred Beasts Sect that was doing the hard work.

"What can we do? Elder Xing, you are the ones who should take the main attack. We can only take action after you open up the way forward." Ouyang Xu fanned himself leisurely, and seemed to be in no hurry to attack the astrological station.

"you……"
