World's Strongest Martial Warrior

As the Violet Heaven Immortal King and his companions were deep in discussion, a sudden tremor erupted from the direction of Heavenly Devil Mountain.    

Then...    

Ominous waves of demonic power, darkening the skies, surged forth from Heavenly Devil Mountain.    

Zi Qiong and the others, caught mid-conversation, had their expressions shift dramatically. Instinctively, they all turned to gaze toward Heavenly Devil Mountain.    

With a grave tone, Zi Qiong Immortal King inhaled deeply and declared, "Another demonic expert has been released from the seal within Heavenly Devil Mountain. Prepare for battle."    

The Devil Suppressing Immortal King interjected, "I've warned before that Heavenly Devil Mountain is experiencing an unprecedented slaughter. This premature awakening of the Desolate Ancient Devil Palace's experts, in an attempt to wage war on Devil Mountain, will only backfire. We should have allowed the Desolate Ancient Devil Palace to return to the immortal realm sooner."    

"There's no point in discussing this any further. Even if we refrain from engaging Heavenly Devil Mountain, the resurgence of the Desolate Ancient Devil Palace is inevitable. We might postpone it temporarily, but we cannot avoid it forever."    

In a subdued voice, Zi Qiong continued, "I've reached out to the other three great domains and called upon experts from the Immortal Dimension for backup." Qin Wentian nodded in agreement. He then turned to Mo Qingcheng and inquired, "What's your plan?" Mo Qingcheng nodded in response before asking Qin Wentian the same question.    

Suddenly, Zi Qiong Immortal King's voice echoed as he materialized in the boundless expanse above Devil Suppressing Immortal City.    

He looked up to see a devil king from the devil tribe crossing the heavens from Heavenly Devil Mountain and met him head-on without flinching.    

In an instant...    

Both vanished into the void simultaneously.    

Simultaneously...    

The Devil Suppressing Immortal King and the others ascended into the heavens, intercepting the Devil Kings emerging from Heavenly Devil Mountain. They then dragged these Devil Kings into a dimensional space, where a fierce battle ensued.    

The Devil Kings emerging from Heavenly Devil Mountain this time were unprecedentedly formidable, surpassing their predecessors in both numbers and might. Despite the assembly of over ten Immortal Kings in the Purple Flame Heaven Domain, resistance proved difficult.    

The conflict was brief.    

A tremor ran through the Devil Suppression Immortal Domain as the Immortal Dao let out a mournful wail. The sight caused the faces of many in the Demon Suppression Immortal Region to contort with alarm.    

The anguished cry of the Immortal Dao signaled the fall of an Immortal King Realm expert, casting a shadow over the outcome of the fierce clash between the Immortal Dimension and Heavenly Devil Mountain.    

Before the shock could subside, another wave of sadness emanated from the Devil Suppressing Domain. A second Immortal King Realm expert had perished.    

In the Devil Suppressing Immortal City, the pallor of countless faces deepened. Immortal King Realm experts, the zenith of the Immortal World in an age devoid of Immortal Emperors, had fallen in quick succession, all within a mere moment.    

The situation was clear.    

The Immortal Dimension stood no chance against the resurgent devil race from Heavenly Devil Mountain. The entire Demon Suppression Immortal City, perhaps even the whole Demon Suppression Immortal Domain, was at risk.    

Amidst the pervasive dread, Zi Qiong and the Demon Suppression Immortal King sensed the impending doom. They swiftly exited the spatial zone.    

"Zi Qiong Immortal King, the awakening of numerous sealed demonic beasts on Heavenly Devil Mountain has overwhelmed us. Alone, we cannot hold them back. If this persists, today might be our last," the Demon Suppression Immortal King declared, his face etched with concern.    

Zi Qiong Immortal King responded gravely, "The Demon Suppression Immortal City is on the brink. We must fight a strategic retreat and await reinforcements from the other three domains."    

The Demon Suppression Immortal King's face twisted further at the suggestion. His Devil Suppression Immortal Palace had safeguarded this land for ages, never allowing the devil race a foothold beyond the lightning pool. Yet, he could never have foreseen that the Violet Sky Immortal King's call to arms would inadvertently reawaken Heavenly Devil Mountain, inflicting severe losses and forcing them to abandon both the Devil Suppressing Immortal City and the entire Devil Suppressing Immortal Domain.    

Despite his slight displeasure, the Demon Suppression Immortal King recognized that now was not the time for anger. The situation had escalated to a critical point; without a strategic retreat, they faced the very real possibility of total annihilation.    

As the Immortal King was about to signal the retreat and instruct the Demon Suppression Immortal City to evacuate, the devil king of the devil race, previously trapped in a dimensional space, burst forth once again, charging toward him. The Immortal King's expression shifted; he had no choice but to harness the Immortal King Laws' power to create a sub-dimension and engage in combat with the demon king.    

Meanwhile, in the Demon Suppression Immortal City below, two imposing Demon Kings clad in black armor and exuding chilling auras descended above the city. Their arrival unleashed a wave of terrifying demonic energy that weighed heavily upon the land, shattering the city's protective grand array with a thunderous crash. This array, maintained by innumerable Chaos Origin Stage experts, crumbled, leaving the Chaos Origin Immortal Venerables ashen-faced and spewing blood.    

Gazing up at the two Demon Kings, the city's inhabitants were overcome with a sense of utter hopelessness. With no Immortal Kings remaining to defend the city, how could they possibly stand against two demon kings from the devil tribe? It seemed the end had come for the Demon Suppression Immortal City.    

"Let's get this over with. No more delays. Once we've razed the Demon Suppression Immortal City, the power from the blood sacrifice should be enough to awaken ten Demon Kings," declared the black-armored Demon King on the left, wielding a devil sword. With a swift motion, he raised his hand and brought the sword crashing down toward the city below.    

The Sword Demon's presence soared, cleaving the sky and earth asunder. Its descent, accompanied by a deafening roar, carried the might to obliterate all in its path. Should it strike the Demon Suppression City, it would surely reduce the city to rubble in an instant.    

"It's over; the Demon Suppression Immortal City is doomed," whispered the city's denizens, watching the devil sword grow larger in their field of vision. Overcome with despair, they closed their eyes, bracing for the end.    

However, something unexpected occurred. The devastating strike from the Black-armored Demon King did not land as anticipated. Baffled, everyone's eyes widened in surprise. Then, shock set in as they noticed a figure clad in black had silently appeared in the sky above Demon Suppression City.    

The young man in black stood with one hand casually behind his back, while his other hand effortlessly caught the Black-armored Demon King's sword mid-slash. Onlookers were stunned, their eyes wide with disbelief. It was inconceivable that at this dire moment, a mysterious youth in a black robe would emerge out of nowhere, halting the Demon King's fearsome attack with nothing but his hand.    

"Is that him?" murmured some within Demon Suppression City, recognizing the figure. Those who knew of Peter Parker couldn't contain their elation. Before Zi Qiong and the others had arrived, it was this very individual who had enabled the city to repeatedly triumph over the Devil Race from Heavenly Devil Mountain. With his unexpected return, hope flickered anew for the beleaguered city.
