Chapter 956: A War of Annihilation of Demons Beyond Common Sense (Part 1)

On the Negative Plane of the Great Circulation, at the judicial court of the dead in hell.

All the judges and patrols had dropped all their work and assembled at the edge bordering hell and the Abyss. They had organized themselves into troops that looked so neat and orderly that they seemed to be works illustrated with the use of drawing tools. They were silent and motionless as they gazed at the roiling and boiling Abyss.

Numerous devils inside it were roaring. Countless words were collapsing. With that huge amorphous subject consistently climbing up, the entire Abyss was gradually melding into one.

In the midst of this process, countless devils died. Their bodies melted away and became a part of this newborn Abyss. There were also a few lucky survivors who absorbed a huge amount of energy and evolved into more powerful and frightening forms.

They were still a little dazed at the moment, but it would not be long before they regained consciousness. By that time, under the lead of the demons, they would launch crazy attacks in every place they could reach. Then they would attack, damage and destroy everything.

And hell, which had prevented them from invading the Main Plane for such a long time, would be the thorn in their flesh. It would certainly encounter an extremely ferocious attack.

So all combat forces of hell had assembled to prepare for this great battle.

Every blade was polished till it was bright, shiny and reflected the murderous intention on the faces of the soldiers. Every spear pointed forward with its tip flashing cold, dense light. The powerful spellcasters closed their eyes and wasted no time in preparing to cast their spells. The high and lofty Hell Kings had taken off their usual attires and changed into their military uniforms. Armed with weapons, they stood amongst the army of soldiers as well.

There was no need for mobilization, and also no need for impassioned slogans. For these courageous soldiers who bravely fought in the shadows to ensure that good and evil of this world would have their own rewards, everything that was happening was simply a matter of course.

Guarding and defending Earth, as well as punishing evil, gave meaning to their lives.

Perhaps after this battle, they would all fall, and hell would become history. Perhaps today would mark the end of all the hard work and struggle they put up for such a long time. But right at this very moment, their lives would be completely radiating with resplendent brilliance, like the meteor shower that tore through the night sky, leaving a most magnificent brilliance.

Earl Palin was among the army of hell. Watching the roiling and boiling Abyss, his heart was cold with murderous intent and blazing with the spirit of war.

He knew that he might die in this battle, but he was not afraid.

Everyone would ultimately have to die. Besides, he had already lived through an extra cycle as compared to the rest, what else was there to be afraid of?

Dying on such a battlefield was not that bad an ending after all.

At that moment, from the middle of the boiling Abyss, he saw a ball of blazing, black flames rising up. It was quickly spreading upwards towards the opening of the Abyss.

The aura of that flame was crazy and fiery. It was filled with a fervent sentiment of extreme hostility. And this was none other than the famous demon who was known as the “Belligerent Pigg.”

The Belligerent Pigg was the former God of War. He constantly created clones of himself and madly participated in every war that could be observed. Finally, he fell into a state of madness. Attracted by the Origin of Destruction, he became a demon.

This demon was considered to be a relatively enthusiastic one among all the demons. Although it had also fallen into a deep sleep like the rest of the demons, it still continued to develop its base of followers and went on advocating war. It even had a clear doctrine—everything in the world would eventually perish, and war was the best way to guide them to this end.

Because it was eager in responding to sacrifices, at least a good half of the demons’ followers on the Main Plane were its followers.

Now that Chaos had awakened, the demons were collectively waking up as well. It was time for them to go on a rampage to wreak havoc, and of course, Chaos would be at the front.

And beyond the Abyss, a huge jellyfish that was shining with a brilliant light was flying towards the Abyss while going against the chaotic, evil aura that was spewing out in a violent manner. From the momentum of its movement, the jellyfish seemed to be intending to use its body to plug the Abyss and keep all the demons locked within the Abyss.

Earl Palin knew this jellyfish. It was another god that he had believed in, His Majesty, the Void Mask.

His Majesty, the Void Mask, was completely different from the usual gods. He was a powerful god who showed much indifference. He had no desire for belief and status, but he was eager to do good and obtain benefits for the toiling masses—he was not like a god. Instead, he was more like a saint.

From Earl Palin’s point of view, he seemed more like an unrestrained and unfettered embodiment of goodness.

When the gods were battling for supreme hegemony, he scrupulously remained neutral, even though his power clearly gave him a decisive position. He only focused on helping the refugees who had been displaced out of their countries because they had given up on the intention of war. He firmly prevented the damaging effects of war from expanding and prevented the massacring of civilians by armies, a situation that was commonly seen in previous wars.

And then the new overlord emerged, that was, the God of Light stepped up the ladder of ranks to become a greater Divine Power. When the God of Light destroyed the great enchantment of the Main Plane with his immeasurable great power, it was also the Void Mask who stepped forth to protect all the living creatures in the Ancient Forest by blocking the attack of a greater Divine Power, the God of Light.

Now, it was still he who charged up to the forefront when the world’s scariest evil awoke with the plan to attack. And he did it all to shelter the people of this world from all harm.

“The other clone of mine may not be strong, but it has great foresight!”

Earl Palin sighed to himself and could not help smiling.

He felt extremely honored to be able to fight alongside such a prestigious god.
