Chapter 3351: A Colossal Victory
"Boom!"
The kryptonite struck heavily on the Absolute Devouring Lord's body, and countless crystal stones on him shattered instantly.
Amid the broken body appeared the Chaos Star Core, radiating intense energy fluctuations. However, at this moment, the energy it emitted was violent and chaotic, devoid of any order.
The Absolute Devouring Lord's voice was filled with terror: "Kryptonite! How do you have kryptonite..."
Before he could finish speaking, the kryptonite, with its surging momentum, had already shattered his body. Amid the sky-full of crystal fragments, it charged straight into his body, landing heavily on the Chaos Star Core.
The Chaos Star Core lasted less than a half-second before it exploded, shattering into countless fragments of star core dust, scattering throughout the cosmos.
The purple flame flickering in the Absolute Devouring Lord's eyes suddenly dimmed, then quickly shrank.
"I'm not willing to accept this... Master, save me..."
Before he could finish his plea, the purple flame in his eyes extinguished completely. The violent energy fluctuations around him vanished abruptly, and his massive, broken body collapsed into the starry sky, devoid of any trace of life.
The Absolute Devouring Lord—dead!
The Immortal Emperor was ecstatic and exhilarated—this kryptonite truly worked!
Not only did it work, but its effect was overwhelming!
This Lord-level demon was drastically weakened in the face of kryptonite, unable even to fully control his own body. It was incredibly exciting!
It wasn't just the Immortal Emperor's side that succeeded; the other Four Saints, each targeting a specific adversary, had also succeeded entirely.
The five saints had meticulously calculated their moves, and with the unleashed power of the kryptonite, the eight demon lords fell victim to the radiation in an instant. Every lord was solely focused on escaping, without sparing thought for anything else. One-on-one, with an upper hand in strength, and the kryptonite—how could they fail?
In the blink of an eye, five demon lords were slaughtered by the Five Saints. Meanwhile, the remaining three demon lords seized the moment to unleash their ultimate abilities, desperately fleeing toward the Sacred Heart Fairyland.
The Five Saints pursued the three fleeing demon lords. Soon, the slightly slower and bulkier Lord of the Abyss was caught.
The Lord of the Abyss panicked, frantically fleeing and crying out for help.
"Master, Master, save me!"
"They have kryptonite, and not just one!"
"If you don't descend now, we'll all be killed by them! Without us, the Demon Clan won't stand a chance against them..."
The Lord of the Abyss must have used some special means to contact the Abyss Lord, pleading desperately for help. However, they were still some distance from the ground, leaving no place for the Abyss Lord to manifest. He could only watch as the Immortal Emperor and the others closed in.
The radiant glow of the kryptonite enveloped the Lord of the Abyss.
"Boom!"
The Lord of the Abyss—dead!
After defeating the Lord of the Abyss, the remaining Lord Ao Jue and Lord of Incineration fled swiftly. They had already returned to the planet's surface, hiding atop the Purple Crystal Pillars.
The Five Saints dared not approach, fearing the descent of the Abyss Lord.
While kryptonite could suppress the Abyss Demons created by the Abyss Lord, it couldn't pose a threat to the Abyss Lord himself.
They still weren't a match for the Abyss Lord. The only option left to them was to keep their distance.
Floating in the starry sky, the Five Saints were in exuberant spirits.
Since the invasion of the abyss demons, countless battles had been waged against them. While they occasionally enjoyed moments of advantage, they were far from significant victories. On the contrary, they had been crushed by the descending Abyss Lord numerous times. Yet today, they had finally unleashed their pent-up rage.
Today, six demon lords had been slain!
Now, of all the demon lords that had appeared, only Lord Ao Jue and the Lord of Incineration remained. Aside from them, there was also Lord Charm Erosion, but no one knew where they had escaped to—it had been ages since anyone had seen them.
Though they didn't wipe out all the demon lords this time, it didn't matter. With the kryptonite still in hand, there would always be a next time!
The Immortal Emperor smiled and said, "With the demon lords preventing us out of the way, no one can stop us from destroying those Purple Crystal Pillars anymore. Let's decimate them all!"
The Demon Emperor nodded in agreement: "With kryptonite in our hands, even if the demons slumbering in the Purple Crystal Pillars aren't clueless and can fight freely, we have nothing to fear. If they dare appear, we'll crush them all!"
The Hun Yuan Saint laughed heartily: "Those abyss demons, like crops planted in the earth—there's no need for us to confront them directly. We can obliterate them from the starry skies above!"
The Immortal Emperor hummed in acknowledgment, then spoke with slight regret: "But in doing so, the entire Sacred Heart Fairyland will likely be affected—or even destroyed."
The Demon Emperor snorted coldly: "Wars always carry a price. Look at our Crimson Demon Domain—it was nearly obliterated as well. If losing one domain can end this apocalyptic war, consider it exceedingly fortunate."
The Immortal Emperor nodded, staying silent.
Although he harbored some regret, he evidently agreed with the Demon Emperor's perspective.
A single strike from the starry sky by the saints carried a force comparable to a planet-destroying meteorite crashing into a world. Regardless of how colossal the planet was, such attacks would inevitably bring catastrophic devastation to it.
They had no choice; they couldn't afford to risk coming any closer to prevent the Abyss Lord's descent.
The residents of the Sacred Heart Fairyland could only suffer in their stead.
"Let's begin!"
Floating in the starry sky, the Five Saints unleashed their attacks toward the positions of the Purple Crystal Pillars below.
Five terrifyingly powerful energy blasts fell vertically from above, striking the Purple Crystal Pillars that resembled towering Pillars of Heaven.
The Purple Crystal Pillars couldn't withstand the attacks of the Five Saints and instantly shattered into pieces.
The terrifying energy shockwaves poured downward, not only shattering the Purple Crystal Pillars but also transforming into horrifying torrents of energy. These cascaded onto the ground, tearing it apart and engulfing the vast surrounding areas of the Purple Crystal Pillars.
The demons planted into the blackened earth like tree stumps didn't even have time to react before being obliterated in the devastating energy shockwaves.
The Five Saints released multiple consecutive attacks, enveloping the Purple Crystal Pillars and the surrounding vast regions, utterly annihilating everything.
The ground there, already devoid of life force due to the Purple Crystal Pillars, was further ravaged into desolate ruins by these attacks.
Soon, the Five Saints ceased their assault, as there was no longer any target worth attacking—every demon had been eradicated.
"This method works perfectly!"
The Shadow Saint's voice brimmed with excitement: "As long as we destroy all the Purple Crystal Pillars, the Abyss Lord won't even have a place to manifest. Let's see how he plans to deal with us then!"
The Immortal Emperor reminded solemnly: "What's been sent into the Immortal and Demon Worlds may not be his entire strength. Moreover, the areas they can project to are numerous. As long as the Abyss Lord remains alive, we must remain vigilant..."
