The white light from the Eternal Tower began to intensify and become increasingly unstable, with faint flashes of electricity flickering.

Cai’er knew that this artifact had reached its limit. If it continued, even if she could persevere, the Eternal Tower would likely be destroyed. This artifact was the only memento left to her by the Necromancer Saint, the Undead Calamity, Ilex.

The Death God’s Scythe was raised high, and a circle of pure white halo spread out. At the same time, Cai’er’s spiritual wings fluttered behind her, and she flew away like lightning. After persisting for a few seconds, the Eternal Tower also transformed into a stream of light, chasing after Cai’er.

When Cai’er released the white halo, the group of human powerhouses also stopped fighting, quickly retreated, and returned towards the direction of the Southeast Fortress.

More than a dozen figures rushed out simultaneously, but these dozen or so Demon Gods looked rather disheveled at this time. Each one of them was covered in dust.

The Eternal Tower contained tremendous purification and recoil force. While they were attacking with all their might, the excessively dense elemental power within the Eternal Tower also caused considerable impact on them. They finally managed to get out, but each one of them was dizzy. And at this moment, a pure white lotus fell… When the Demon Gods finally recovered from the attack and controlled their Demon God Pillars to release powerful forces to control the situation, they felt like they wanted to cry but no tears came out.

It was too miserable… Throughout the entire demon camp, only a handful of tents remained intact. Corpses were everywhere. Intense magical elemental storms were constantly raging. The granaries had turned into scorched earth. The army of more than 300,000 demons! At this time, they were like a plate of scattered sand. The camp, which stretched for dozens of miles, was damaged beyond recognition. The losses were enormous and countless.

After a brief discussion, the dozen or so Demon Gods reached a consensus. They simultaneously took action to resolve the conflict on the demon side, appointing the Chief Demon King as the successor to the Death Spirit Demon God Saminagina. They took the Death Spirit Demon God Pillar and retreated rapidly together.

They had to retreat. After tonight’s blow, the fighting strength of their originally aggressive 500,000-strong army was less than one-third of what it had been when they first arrived. The key was that morale was completely gone. The Southeast Fortress actually had more than thirty ninth-level powerhouses, including more than a dozen domain powerhouses. Their numbers were even greater than theirs. How could they continue?

Especially the terror of Cai’er. What if they were ambushed again? What would they do?

There was only one way to avoid the Eternal Tower from sealing them: the Demon Gods had to separate. However, there was a problem after separating: would they be defeated one by one? Who would be willing to take the risk?

In the end, the dozen or so Demon Gods decided to retreat to Narik Province and await the Demon God Emperor’s orders. While reorganizing the army, they would also find ways to replenish food. The food consumption of hundreds of thousands of troops a day was also an astronomical figure!

Later, according to the statistics of the Southeast Fortress on this battle, when the demon army of 500,000 retreated, the total force was less than 270,000. Among them, the number of wounded was countless. It could be said that they were completely defeated by the Southeast Fortress. The only regret was that only two participating Demon Gods fell. But the crisis of the Southeast Fortress had been completely resolved. Even if this demon army returned, the six professional ratios of the Southeast Fortress would make it difficult to break through. The morale of the soldiers of the Southeast Fortress soared to an unprecedented level. With sufficient supplies, they quickly recovered to their peak combat power, protecting this great pass.

But Cai’er didn’t have time to rest. After the ambush battle ended, she and the twelve Eternal Heroes quietly left under the cover of night and flew straight to the Beast Pass in the southwest.

The war at Beast Pass had also begun. But there, there were no magic traps.

…Three days passed in the blink of an eye. The demon camp outside the Imperial Dragon Pass remained calm.

“Has there been any news from Saminagina and Marchosias?” The Demon God Emperor summoned the Moon Demon God Agares and the Star Demon God Vashak to his tent.

Agares respectfully said, “According to the last message received, Saminagina launched an attack as soon as he arrived at the Southeast Fortress, without letting the soldiers rest. According to the reports from the Demon Gods there, the battle has been going on for a day, and the demons have not yet entered the battle. A stalemate has formed with the Southeast Fortress. The number of strongmen on the Southeast Fortress side exceeded expectations. There is an archer with a divine-level bow who ambushed and killed Japo. Japo is dead.”

“What?” The Demon God Emperor was shocked. “Japo is dead?”

“Yes. Moreover, according to the news from the front, Japo was shot to death before he could play an auxiliary role on the battlefield.” Agares’s words did not add any emotional color, but everyone could hear his dissatisfaction with Japo and Saminagina.

“What else?” The Demon God Emperor suppressed his anger. Don’t look down on the Arcane Demon God Japo’s combat power, but he can be called the number one demon in group assistance. His role on the battlefield is as great as Saminagina’s. He was deliberately allocated to the army attacking the Southeast Fortress by the Demon God Emperor. But he didn’t expect to die before he could even begin.

Agares respectfully said, “No news has been received since then. There should be accurate news tonight. No news has been received from Marchosias and Valefor on the Beast Pass side. But according to the previous news, they have already started to act. Judging from the time, there should already be results on the Southeast Fortress side. If Marchosias and Valefor are fast enough, there should be results soon.”

Vashak coldly said, “Your Majesty, Saminagina seems to be a bit too much. It’s not conducive to unity. If he successfully invades the human territory this time, I’m afraid the demons…”

His words stopped there, and he didn’t continue. Since performing the Life Prophecy last time, Vashak’s personality has become much more silent and cold, and he speaks less.

The Demon God Emperor Fengxiu narrowed his eyes and looked at Agares, “Speed up the transmission of information.”

“Yes.”

The Demon God Emperor slowly stood up, “Three days have passed. It seems we should meet Long Haochen again. I believe he should have received the news from the Southeast Fortress and the Beast Pass.”

The Moon Demon God Agares said, “Your Majesty, should we wait for the news from the front lines? At most six hours, the next news should come back.”

The Demon God Emperor pondered for a moment, then said, “Very well, let’s wait for the good news from Saminagina and Marchosias.” He didn’t seem to hear the objection raised by the Star Demon God earlier. Vashak didn’t say anything more either.

The situation on the front lines is very important here. If the two armies have invaded the Temple Federation, then the Demon God Emperor is in an absolutely advantageous position. If they fail to invade, then the Demon God Emperor’s tactics against the Imperial Dragon Pass must also change.
