Ancient demon?
A ruthless figure who once dominated an era?A demonic sorcerer wielding the power of the I Ching?
Titles and names flashed one after another in the mind.
High above in the grand space beyond the real dimension, countless enormous and distorted entities stirred restlessly, erupting into a frenzy of debate.The sounds were filthy, twisted.
Ordinary beings who heard them would be driven to eternal madness.
Indescribable terror!As if attending a council of dark overlords.
Some had wings growing from their ribs, or avian wings.Greenish faces with fangs, thin snake-like tongues, crimson eyes radiating bloodthirsty violence, shining with an insanity-inducing glare.
Multi-horned, primordial titans with dark green scales, extra faces on their bellies, jagged sharp teeth, grotesque in the extreme!
This was Satanish.
A famous Hell Lord of the Marvel Universe.He had a decent relationship with Dormammu.
Of course, the Hell Lords knew no true friendship.Only interest mattered.
"Overlord?""Supreme demon?""If I hadn't been born a generation late, I might have devoured him already!"
Satanish sneered.He held the Overlord in no respect.Not just him—the other dark lords at the council mocked and scoffed.
The age of ancient demons had ended!
"…Mephisto."
"Your human form is beautiful."
A death goddess, adorned in a thorned crown and dark form-fitting leather, exuding regal poise and beauty, rested her hands under her chin, her gaze full of admiration.
Hela.
Eldest daughter of Odin.She should have inherited Asgard, but her bloodthirsty nature led Odin to imprison her in the foggy, icy realm of Helheim.In the near future, with Odin Borson fallen, the death goddess would reclaim Asgard and continue her legendary path—until Ragnarok.
Wait—Mephisto?!This woman was Mephisto's human incarnation?
Shen Du blinked in astonishment.
The system reward, the "Mysterious Invitation", actually represented a seat at the Dark Council?
"Resurrected Mephisto, mobilizing all Hell Lords…""…to take revenge on me?"
Shen Du's expression shifted.He could hardly believe it.
At this moment, he realized his spiritual form was no longer a muscular, towering dragon-headed demon.Instead, he had manifested as a majestic Azure Dragon—coiling in the air, nearly a hundred meters long, covered in dense dark-green scales.Four legs with five sharp claws each, shimmering with the brilliance of Vibranium-like energy.
A soul-crushing, awe-inspiring presence radiated outward.
The assembled dark lords all turned to scrutinize the stranger, never seen before.
"…An Eastern demon?"
A deep, magical voice echoed.A towering demon, hidden behind curtains, comparable in size to Setotrak's horned giant form, spoke ominously.
"How nostalgic…""The days of battling Fuxi."
Fuxi?The Eastern progenitor who created the I Ching?
Could it be… the speaking demon was Chiyou?Marvel's version of Chiyou—an ancient shadow, a mighty demon cloaked in local legend, on the same level as Setotrak.
A world-ending entity beyond mortal comprehension.Once brought endless disasters to the land of China, nearly sinking Eurasia!
"Seems this session of the Dark Council…""…has indeed stirred several remarkable figures."
Clap clap.Clap clap.
A crisp round of applause echoed.Mephisto smiled, thoroughly pleased.Everyone loves a bit of praise.
"This Eastern Lord must understand the Overlord's fame—twice ruling the lands of China with tyranny…""Leveling temples.""Toppling statues.""Banning martial arts and magic!""…How many devout cults serving demons were wiped out?!"
The robed lady's words were cunning, blending emotion and reason."Your followers will inevitably be affected!""So everyone must unite, to prevent future disasters.""Directly take out the Overlord and his siblings!"
Mephisto raised his arms and shouted.Through masterful rhetoric and psychological maneuvering, he instantly stirred the emotions of all the Hell Lords.
Hell Lords.Also known as Lords of Fear.They feed off negative emotions from the natural world.If a cult they created were destroyed… the consequences would be unimaginable!
Of course, not all Hell Lords feed solely on fear.
Take Marduk Quoris, for example:A three-headed dragon demon, blood-red skin covered with mysterious patterns, claws sharp enough to tear apart all matter.A dark lord who loved impersonating Satan.
His son, Demon, the Hellstorm, repeatedly prevented him from invading the real dimension.
"You're overreacting.""Mephisto.""Does an Overlord even warrant our action?"
The dark lord's hoarse voice thundered.
Impressive!Shen Du couldn't help but be impressed.
Demon, the Hellstorm, could indeed eliminate the demonic emperor himself.
It seemed… demon offspring are rebellious?Shen Du massaged his temples in exasperation.
If he ever encountered the Overlord's child, the little demon, what should he do?Treat him like a son?After all, the young demon would be a pure-blooded ancient demon.
The lineage of ancient demons had dwindled to this point; perhaps extermination wasn't necessary.The key was whether the little demon was sensible.
"Interesting."
"This universe's dimension is continuously collapsing…""As if multiple worlds are overlapping.""Soon, it will collide with another universe!"
An Eye Demon swayed its tentacles, speaking with a terrifying voice.
Shumagorath.One of the old rulers, an alien ancient demon.Unique in the multiverse.Able to ignore dimensional barriers, traverse any reality, and plunder the core of parallel universes.
Of course, the universe where the Sorcerer Sanctum was established could still block the Eye Demon.
"Collide again?"
Shen Du repeated, instinctively.A bad premonition surged.
"In short,""Earths with different designations are about to converge.""The two worlds will go to war!""Any day, a city could appear out of nowhere."
Screams of ghosts and wolves echoed.
Two Earths colliding?!Shen Du froze.This was the truth of the tearing of reality barriers?Damn!A surreal, bone-chilling dread coursed through him.
"Stay calm.""Eastern friend.""The cosmic gods will not allow two Earths to collide.""Moreover, even if they did, there would be roughly a century's buffer!"
"…Take out the ancient demons.""Divide their I Ching powers!""This will bring you unprecedented transformation.""And give you the confidence to defeat your variants!"
Mephisto spoke cunningly again.
Variants.Referring to yourself from different universes.Only a handful of supreme demons have multiversal uniqueness.For almost all life—including Mephisto, Satanish, Dark Lord, Dormammu, Hela—there exist corresponding variants.
Hell Lords usually eliminate their own variants!To claim everything of the variant!…The end of life becomes the path to becoming multiverse-unique.
Hence, dark lords and supreme demons are entirely different species.The former already plan to eliminate their variants!
"Fellow lords.""Never underestimate the threat of ancient demons.""Especially the Overlord.""His body holds countless mysteries.""Even I cannot see through his reality."
A tall lady in luxurious silk robes, barefoot, her commanding voice melodious and lingering, urged the dark lords present to cooperate.
"How do you plan to take out the Overlord?"
Shen Du paused, contemplating, and was the first to ask.
