Chapter 397

"Go ahead first!"

Zhang Chu glanced at the demon subordinates behind him, and directly led more than a thousand of the strongest subordinates among the billions of demons, through the passage of the second level of the demon world, and came to the third level of the demon world.

The passage is naturally guarded by demons. It is not easy for the demons on the lower level to go to the upper level through the passage.

That requires going through many layers of obstacles.

This was also the reason why when Zhang Chu led the demons from the first level of the Demon Realm to the second level of the Demon Realm, he was surrounded and attacked by the demons from the second level of the Demon Realm.

Because the demons on the first level of the demon world can be said to be the lowest and weakest existence in the demon world.

If you are not strong enough, it is impossible to go to the next level of the demon world.

When Zhang Chu leads the demons from the first level of the Demon Realm to attack the second level, he will naturally be blocked by the demons from the second level.

In fact, it all comes down to a resource issue.

The powerful demons are just unwilling to give up their resources, so they will block the weaker demons from coming to places that do not belong to them.

At this moment, Zhang Chu brought more than a thousand of his men and directly killed the demons guarding the passage.

His billions of subordinates from the second level of the Demon Realm were quickly passing through the passage between the two levels of the Demon Realm and heading towards the third level of the Demon Realm.

The killing of the demons guarding them could not be kept secret for long.

How many of Zhang Chu's men are there? How could they be hidden?
The most important thing is that Zhang Chu had no intention of hiding.

The fight began, and most of Zhang Chu's men had basically no ability to fight back when facing the siege of the third-level demons in the Demon Realm.

After all, in the past, those who could come to the upper level from the lower level of the demon world were all powerful people.

But now, the strength of Zhang Chu's subordinates is generally much weaker than the demons in the third level of the Demon Realm.

However, Zhang Chu didn't care about this situation at all.

What he wanted was never territory, but the flesh and souls of the demons.

Whether it is the advancement of the Corpse King Banner or the Soul Banner, a large amount of flesh, blood and soul is required.

The Corpse King Banner has already been hidden in the veins of the Demon Realm. When those demons die, their flesh and blood will be directly devoured by the Corpse King Banner to enhance the strength of the corpses refined within the banner.

As for the souls of the demons after their death, Zhang Chu also intercepted about 10% of them. If there were more, it might attract the attention of the main gods who live on faith.

The war never stopped for a moment, with hundreds or even thousands of demons dying every second.

As the war continued, many of Zhang Chu's billions of subordinates also made breakthroughs in strength.

As mentioned before, the way for the demons to increase their strength is quite simple, which is to devour each other.

Among the billions of demons, there are always lucky ones.

What's more, those demons who came to besiege and kill Zhang Chu were just one or two forces near the passage. How could they be comparable to Zhang Chu's billions of subordinates?
In just one day, billions of second-level demons had all arrived at the third level of the demon world.

Under the leadership of Zhang Chu, they charged in one direction, beheaded generals, seized flags, and captured cities and territories.

But in the eyes of the upper levels of the demon world, especially the powerful demons in the eighth and ninth levels, this is all normal.

The demon world itself is like this.

What's more, even if it is below the fifth level of the Demon Realm, no matter how much killing there is, it is impossible to threaten the status of those powerful people in the upper level of the Demon Realm.

The gap in strength is there!
Unless there is an existence similar to the Heavenly Demon God, otherwise, how can one rely on the demons in the lower level of the Demon Realm to kill their way to the upper level of the Demon Realm?
That's basically something that's impossible to happen.

This is also the reason why Zhang Chu made such a big fuss, but no strong man from the demon world came out to stop him.

As time goes by, the killing becomes more and more frequent. The tens of thousands of golden-armored corpses in the Corpse King's Banner have all reached the combat power of the Tribulation Crossing Period.

Among the ghosts in the Quasi-Soul Banner, the weakest one is equivalent to a ghost king in the Jindan stage.

There are one billion ghosts in each quasi-soul banner!
Twelve quasi-soul banners, that represents 12 billion souls.

The one hundred and twenty beings are at the lowest level of the Golden Core Stage. What kind of power is that?
If we wait until the power of 12 billion ghosts reaches the level of Yuanshen Stage, the Pluto Formation we have set up may be able to defeat the Lord God.

The killing continued, and Zhang Chu was just responsible for guiding it.

Another one or two years passed, and the third level of the Demon Realm had been unified by Zhang Chu. The number of elite demons under his command had reached no less than 10 billion.

However, Zhang Chu was not in a hurry to attack the fourth level of the Demon Realm. Instead, he wanted to let the strong men from the Shrouding Sky World he brought with him to survive the tribulation.

In the course of two years, the hundreds of cultivators who were about to die of old age in the world of Shrouding the Sky have now reached the third level of Quasi-Emperor, or even the fifth level of Quasi-Emperor.

After ten years, Zhang Chu must have more than a hundred quasi-emperors of the ninth level under his command, which means they are at the peak of quasi-emperors.

When the golden age of the world of Shrouding the Sky arrives, there will be more than a hundred quasi-emperors at the peak of their powers. Even if only about 10% of them can survive the calamity of becoming an emperor, that would mean more than ten emperors.

Then in this ancient world, isn't it in a state of sweeping all the way?
As for the fact that only one emperor can appear in every golden age of the world of Shrouding the Sky?
so what?

After he has passed the tribulation, can't Zhang Chu just take him away from the world of Shrouding the Sky?

Just like a bug, there can only be one emperor in a golden age.

If, before the Golden Age ended, an emperor suddenly disappeared, wouldn't that allow the next one to overcome the tribulation of becoming an emperor?
Zhang Chu, who had survived one level of thunder tribulation, had continued to kill and improve himself for a year or two. His strength had reached a limit and he could survive a second level of thunder tribulation.

Maybe, after ten years or so, Zhang Chu will be able to survive the nine levels of thunder tribulation and become an immortal.

With the Pluto's formation, he can continuously refine his soul and strengthen his spirit. In addition, he has no shortage of resources to improve his strength.

How fast will his strength improve?

Without the worry of resources, his strength will only improve faster and faster.

At the very least, with the resources in his hands, he would not be short of resources before becoming an immortal.

At that time, Zhang Chu plundered the resources of the two tribes of demons in the spiritual world.

That is enough resources to support dozens of living beings and become Mahayana. Now, it is providing resources for Zhang Chu to practice alone. How could he be short of resources?
After stabilizing the third level of the Demon Realm for a while, Zhang Chu went directly to the world of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio and survived the second thunder tribulation.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to survive in the biochemical world, but it’s useless there.

The biochemical world has been completely controlled by Zhang Chu. To a certain extent, he is the master of the biochemical world.

Will the thunder tribulation in the biochemical world be useful to him?

The world of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio is different. Zhang Chu doesn’t have complete control at all.

There are some connections with some big worlds there. This is why Zhang Chu did not integrate the Liao Zhai world into the biochemical world after obtaining the origin of the Liao Zhai world.

Just like the Fengyun World, there are traces of Vairocana Tathagata there. How could Zhang Chu integrate the Fengyun World into the Biochemical World?
Perhaps when he is strong enough, he will integrate the time connected by the Yue Shi Mirror into the biochemical world.

The second thunder tribulation was still very easy for Zhang Chu, without too many twists and turns. He had already passed the second thunder tribulation and returned to the ancient world.

Absorbing the soul essence condensed by the Pluto's formation, strengthening the spirit, and using the resources in the spiritual world to improve one's own magic power and physical strength.

In the blink of an eye, several months had passed.

Zhang Chu, whose strength was completely consolidated, began his conquest again.

It took nearly three years to fight from the third level to the fourth level, and finally unified the fourth level completely.

At this point, Zhang Chu has already controlled four levels of the demon world. As for the fifth level?
But Zhang Chu couldn't move it.

The fifth floor is the place where the powerful demons in the demon world gather, and it is considered the middle-level combat force in the demon world.

If the fifth layer is annihilated, or even unified, it will definitely attract the strong ones among the demons. When facing the strong ones among the demons, even those main gods, Zhang Chu has no confidence to hide his identity.

In his soul essence, he is still a human being.

Therefore, after unifying the first four levels of the demon world, Zhang Chu finally stopped.

Firstly, he needs to improve his strength, and secondly, the golden age of the world of Shrouding the Sky is about to arrive.

It is time to arrange for those powerful people who followed him in the world of Zhatian to return to the world of Zhatian and overcome the calamity of becoming an emperor.

In three years, more than a hundred powerful people in the world of Shrouding the Sky have made further progress in strength, and the one with the lowest cultivation level has reached the eighth level of Quasi-Emperor.

Most of them already have the strength of the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor.

With a move of his body, Zhang Chu appeared directly in the Nether Sea and found Gai Jiuyou and the others.

"The Golden Age is coming!"

Zhang Chu looked at the hundreds of warriors in front of him and said, "You must be prepared!"

"Improve your strength as soon as possible!"

"Then prepare to overcome the tribulation of becoming an emperor!"

"Master, don't worry,"

Gai Jiuyou glanced at the people around him and said, "We are already ready!"

Everyone holds twelve million soul flags in their hands, and the pressure of overcoming the calamity of becoming an emperor is not too great for them.

The most important thing is that the vitality in them is extremely terrifying.

Even if you can't make it through, as long as you save your life, you can still wait for the next great era to come.

Becoming an emperor is no longer their goal; becoming an immortal is their ultimate pursuit.

Zhang Chu nodded slightly, "Jiuyou, Emperor's son, you two should follow me back to Zhatian first!"

"You must first overcome the tribulation of becoming an emperor!"

"Wait until you have all survived the catastrophe of becoming an emperor."

Zhang Chu's eyes wandered, "It's time to completely resolve the affairs of this world!"

"Yes, Taoist Master!"

Naturally, the two had no objection.

One is a veteran quasi-emperor at the peak of his powers, and the other is the emperor’s son who has an imperial weapon in his hand.

They are the ones who have the most confidence in surviving the catastrophe of becoming an emperor.

With a wave of his sleeves, the two of them were directly taken into the Yueshi Mirror by Zhang Chu and returned to the world of Zhutian.

"Master Dao,"

Gai Jiuyou had just returned, and there was a hint of joy in his eyes, "The great era has really come!"

At this time in the world of Shrouding the Sky, the golden age has arrived.

"Then you can survive the tribulation!"

Zhang Chu nodded, "The Emperor and I will protect you!"

"Thank you, Taoist Master!"

Gai Jiuyou bowed and said, "Thank you, my son!"

He simply released his own breath.

The extremely terrifying aura directly swept across the entire Big Dipper star region.

Countless practitioners, after feeling this breath, showed expressions of confusion and sadness.

The golden age has just arrived, and someone is already going through the tribulation of becoming an emperor?
Then why do they still practice?
Only one emperor can appear in a golden age. If the one who transcends the tribulation succeeds, the path for all of them will be blocked.

However, things had come to this point, no one dared to stop it, but they all rushed towards the direction where the breath came from.

They want to see who is going through the tribulation of becoming an emperor.

At this moment, Gai Jiuyou was waiting extremely calmly in the starry sky.

He was too familiar with the calamity that befell Emperor Cheng.

This was his second attempt to cross the river. He failed the first time, and he couldn't think of any reason why he would fail this time.

In his hands he not only had his own treasure for achieving enlightenment, but also twelve soul banners, and he also borrowed a Black Mountain Seal from Zhang Chu.

But it is the Black Mountain Seal that swallows lightning.

Thunder fell, and in the world of Shrouding the Sky, beings from all periods appeared around Gai Jiuyou with the help of the power of thunder and lightning and began to attack him.

These human-shaped lightning bolts are the marks of the existence of those powerful people in the world of Shrouding the Sky.

Only by defeating them all can you become the great emperor.

In the world of Shrouding the Sky, there is only one emperor that appears in millions, so of course the strongest one must be chosen.

The Black Mountain Seal hung above his forehead, and the rushing lightning was swallowed up by the Black Mountain Seal in an instant.

As for those powerful men who reappeared in the world with the help of thunder and lightning, the attacks they launched were actually also formed by thunder and lightning.

Therefore, the attack will be completely swallowed up by the Black Mountain Seal, and only the divine will above the magical powers will fight with Gai Jiuyou.

Only after destroying those divine intentions can Gai Jiuyou successfully survive the calamity.

There were also many powerful people watching around, and most of them didn't know who was undergoing the tribulation in front of them.

It’s just that Gai Jiuyou is too ancient.

Nine thousand years have passed, and countless generations have passed.

Even those who practice cultivation have died for many generations.

In addition, he is too low-key and basically no one knows him.

The tribulation of becoming an emperor took more than ten days. When the thunder dissipated, Gai Jiuyou's aura was rapidly improving, and soon, he was able to dominate the world.

The Golden Age is over!
Unless Gai Jiuyou was killed or disappeared, otherwise, this golden age would be gone as soon as it appeared!
At this moment, when those practitioners were in despair, Gai Jiuyou's breath suddenly disappeared, as if it had never appeared.

The golden age that had just been cut off was actually reviving again.

The creatures in the world of Shrouding the Sky were instantly stunned.

What made them even more confused was that another figure appeared. It turned out that he was also going through the tribulation of becoming a god?

What exactly is going on?

Doubts immediately arose in the minds of many living beings, even those with extremely high cultivation levels were puzzled at first glance.

The same goes for the chess players in the world of Shrouding the Sky. Where have those who just became emperors gone?
Why did it disappear?
