Are you leaving just like that?
Did you come only to show your face?
The experts from the Four Realms of Immortals, Demons, Spirits, and Demons left standing were utterly baffled.
Especially Jiu Jue Immortal Emperor and Dark Phecda Demon Emperor, they were in utter chaos, their minds crumbling.
Just moments ago, they had eagerly welcomed the dazzling return of the immortals, hoping they could slaughter left and right, crushing Jiang Cheng into defeat.
Such high hopes were placed!
They had even imagined the scene of Jiang Cheng being defeated and killed.
Some forward-thinking Immortal Demons had even thought about how to split the spoils with the returning immortals.
But now, it's all gone.
A pointless excitement.
The eerie silence at the scene was broken by the laughter of the Sparrow Demons.
"Hahaha, is that all there is to the Returning Immortals!"
As Brother Cheng's supporters, they hadn't managed to touch a single enemy along the way, struggling to keep up with the team, almost falling behind.
But this didn't dampen their enthusiasm.
"What's all this about the Returning Immortals, boasting sky-high but really nothing in front of the Demon Lord!"
"I knew it all along, once the Master of Grand Demon appears, even the Returning Immortals will roll away in defeat, on a completely different level."
Tumai beat her chest and stamped her feet: "What a pity, a regret..."
Other Sparrow Demons intentionally asked, "Regret what?"
"Regret that they escaped too quickly, preventing us from seeing the scene where the Master of Grand Demon slays the Returning Immortals!"
"Yeah, yeah, such a pity..."
Everyone present was speechless.
If not for Brother Cheng's protection, you wretched Sparrow Demons wouldn't know how you died.
However, Brother Cheng's mood improved significantly.
These mouthy Sparrow Demons really spoke to his heart.
"I originally planned to destroy the Immortal Alliance and go to your Holy Hall!"
He raised the Purple Flame Sword again, his murderous intent undisguised.
"And now you deliver yourselves so conveniently."
"I ought to thank you!"
Before Jiu Jue, Dark Phecda, and others could respond, he charged again.
A new battle erupted once more.
Dark Phecda Demon Emperor initially thought about counterattacking.
But in the next instant, he saw a Demon Emperor's Realm expert in front of him being shattered effortlessly.
Then, the power of Profound Pattern and Sword Heart consumed that Demon Emperor.
It was clear he wouldn't survive.
This non-human fighting power completely crushed his confidence.
"Escape!"
"Flee!"
The next moment, all Immortal Emperors and Demon Emperors along with countless Immortal Demon Army, collectively chose to flee in disgrace.
No longer daring to stay where they were.
Following Jiang Cheng closely were experts like Cang Ling, Xuanming, Ice Phoenix, White Tiger, and Cangxu, who continued their relentless pursuit, killing gods who stood in their way.
The Demon Race army and Spirit Realm experts in the rear shouted loudly.
In fact, the hundreds of Immortal Emperors from the Holy Hall could join forces and shatter Brother Cheng once more.
In terms of total strength, together with the Immortal Alliance, they could crush the united army of the Spirit Realm and Demon Realm multiple times effortlessly.
But they were scared witless.
And on the other hand, choosing to escape was indeed the right choice.
Killing Brother Cheng would only trigger the system's Resurrection Skill, and they'd end up dead too.
The disorganized Immortal Demon army was utterly confused, without any coordination, being slaughtered by the Demon Realm and Spirit Realm armies, losing countless numbers.
Under Sect Leader Jiang's command, the pursuing armies of the Demon Realm and Spirit Realm did not extend to innocent immortals below.
The whole chase was solely focused on the Immortal Alliance and Holy Hall.
After three days and nights of pursuit, the Immortal Alliance was reduced to merely 20 plus Immortal Emperors, and more than half of the Demon Realm's hundred Immortal Emperors were slain.
Quasi-Emperor Immortal Kings suffered uncountable losses.
Jiu Jue, Dark Phecda her Fang, and other leaders of the Immortal Demon Realm were all injured, locked onto by Jiang Cheng with no escape.
The entire Six Realms were shaken as countless immortals witnessed the blood rain falling from high above, lamenting the terrifying might of these great figures.
At the defeat's end for the Immortal Alliance and Holy Hall, the front heaven and earth suddenly changed.
All Demon Race and Spirit Race attacks seemed to perate through but vanished without causing any ripple.
Yet, the experts of the Immortal Alliance and Holy Hall, though struck, remained unharmed.
"This ends now!"
An ethereal, boundless female voice resonated in everyone's hearts.
With those words, a vague and indistinct figure slowly appeared amidst countless colored lights, resembling an untouchable deity of legend.
"Immortal Mother!"
Seeing the silhouette, Jiu Jue, Dark Phecda, and others grasped on to this last straw of salvation.
"Immortal Mother, save me!"
"Please save us..."
This was the Immortal Mother who had once bestowed the Evil Extermination Strategy upon Brother Cheng, allowing him to lead the next calamity.
Seeing her appear, even Brother Cheng had to pause.
Even top experts like Cang Ling, Xuanming, Ji Yao, all showed a shared look of apprehension and unease.
After all, it was this Immortal Mother who had stirred up the Immortal-Demon War, declaring the Demon Race's time to end, and bestowed the Soul Ancestor of the Immortal Realm with the Evil Extermination Strategy under the guise of a calamity.
Since then, the Demon Race had fallen into decline.
The Immortal Mother seldom acted but orchestrated a great calamity every billion years.
No one knew her origins or her true power.
Some even suspected she was truly the Lord of the Immortal Realm, or perhaps the embodiment of the Immortal Realm Heavenly Dao, maintaining the order of this world.
Having singlehandedly separated the two armies, the Immortal Mother was shrouded in a thick mist, concealing her visage.
Only her emotionless, immortal voice could be heard.
"You Immortals and Demons have caused chaos, breaking the Immortal Realm's order and wreaked havoc upon all living beings; your time has ended!"
Jiu Jue Immortal Emperor and Dark Phecda Great Emperor knelt, prostrating as they cried mournfully.
"We realize our mistakes!"
"We beg your forgiveness!"
"We are now mostly dead or wounded, no longer able to do as before..."
"We have suffered enough punishment!"
Having no choice, even the Immortal Emperor had to abandon dignity to plead for life.
Especially before the Immortal Mother, begging was no disgrace.
"The calamity has ended."
The Immortal Mother ignored them, instead directly addressing Sect Leader Jiang, declaring her intention.
Jiang Cheng shook his head.
"The calamity hasn't ended."
He reached out and presented the Evil Extermination Strategy, speaking calmly: "The elites of the Immortal Alliance and Holy Hall are still here, it's far from enough."
In truth, Sect Leader Jiang cared little for this so-called great calamity.
He had no grand desire to crush the fate of the Immortal and Demon Realms.
He himself was of the Human Race, and bore no ill will towards it.
His target was only the opposing forces of the Immortal Alliance and Holy Hall.
Even without the guise of a calamity, he would still act this way.
Hearing him dare to oppose the Immortal Mother's words, all Immortals, Demons, and the Demon Race present were stunned.
If the Immortal Mother was indeed the Lord of the Immortal Realm, then none here could defy her.
Considering she had orchestrated so many calamities, all those in the Emperor Realm were merely pawns in her hands.
A challenge against such an existence required immense courage!
The Immortal Mother showed no anger, merely raised her hand.
Soon after, the Evil Extermination Strategy turned into a cloud of golden powder, scattering in the wind, leaving no trace.
"The calamity has ended," she once again announced with no emotion.
