My System Is Three Thousand Years Early

The void around them seemed to be compressed by some terrifying force and, with a bang, shattered like glass.

It was at that moment that the Fire Dragon Devil King's form halted, his body instantly tensed, as if he was enduring some immense pressure. With a miserable howl, all the scales on his body's surface burst apart like dust.

At the same time, blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. His pale face was full of horror, unable to believe that a single move had injured him so badly, and even posed a life-threatening danger.

The gap in strength between him and Li Baxun was even greater than between him and Qin Beifeng!?

The Fire Dragon Devil King couldn't believe it!

But he was already close to death.

All the bones and flesh in his body were wailing.

And Li Baxun's palm was still slowly tightening.

By the time Li Baxun's palm closed completely, the Fire Dragon Devil King's life would be over.

The Fire Dragon Devil King immediately cried out for help.

"Devil Emperor, save me!"

At the same time, a majestic presence emanated from the depths of the dark clouds, caressing the Fire Dragon Devil King's body like flowing water.

The Fire Dragon Devil King immediately felt the oppressive force around him lessen considerably and without the slightest hesitation, he bolted into the dark clouds.

Li Baxun did not chase after the Fire Dragon Devil King.

He had anticipated that he couldn't truly kill the Fire Dragon Devil King. Even without seeking help, Li Baxun wouldn't be able to crush the Fire Dragon Devil King's body.

The Devil Clan's physical strength was not something the ordinary Human Race could compare with.

The purpose of this battle was merely to test the strength of the Fire Dragon Devil King.

Though the Fire Dragon Devil King was strong, he wasn't an outrageously strong Demon King.

If he could suppress the Fire Dragon Devil King in two moves, there was no reason Qin Beifeng should have been beaten into such a state by him.

Why was this so?

Li Baxun reflected for a moment and realized he was starting to not understand.

As Li Baxun was contemplating,

The next moment, a figure walked out from the depths of the dark clouds.

Before anyone could see the figure's face, a majestic voice came from within the clouds formed by layers of Demon Beasts.

"Heh..."

"North City, it seems the Northern Expedition Army is indeed impressive. Seeing how Qin Beifeng performed just now, this Emperor thought there was no need for me to take action, and that just a few Demon Kings would suffice to flatten North City."

"It seems I still have to make a move."

"Duke, long time no see."

This voice started off as a whisper, but in the blink of an eye, it boomed like thunder, as if the entire space was trembling along with this voice.

What followed was a terrifying aura.

This aura came from the depths of the dark clouds and swept over the entire North City like a raging storm and a vast ocean.

On the city walls of North City, all the soldiers who were battling the Demon Beasts suddenly felt as if a mountain were weighing down on them, feeling an inexplicable pressure on their bodies, and their actions slowed significantly.

Standing atop the city walls, Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, upon hearing this voice, looked up slightly in surprise but without much panic. He took a step into the air, doing nothing as he alone blocked the aura from that Devil Emperor.

It was only then that the soldiers within North City started to feel some relief.

Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, stood suspended in the air, his gaze directed towards the figure stepping out slowly from the dark clouds, his aged face showing a coldly detached expression.

"Ghost Spider Devil Emperor? I presumed you Devil Emperors would hide behind the scenes, refraining from taking action until the very end. You seem to be bolder this time."

"What's the matter, only one Devil Emperor has come today? Do you really think you alone can flatten my North City?"

The figure addressed by Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, as the Ghost Spider Devil Emperor, gradually revealed his form.

He was immensely large, his skin a deep black color. His face, although human-like, was more akin to that of a spider's, with features twisted together, creating a grotesquely strange expression.

His limbs were long and powerful, sharp claws adorning each of his fingers, their cold light concealed, as though they could effortlessly tear apart all things in the world.

Besides his face, the most eye-catching feature was his belly.

The Ghost Spider Devil Emperor's belly was round and occasionally moved as if there was a living creature inside.

The Ghost Spider Devil Emperor, stepping forward, looked at Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, and laughed, "How could that be?"

"The situation today arose suddenly, unexpected by both you and me."

"Even with my full confidence, I wouldn't dare face you alone, Duke."

As the words of the Ghost Spider Devil Emperor fell, another figure appeared abruptly beside him.

The figure's appearance was obscured by a murky aura, making it difficult to see clearly, but one could make out his deep eyes.

Clad in a black robe, his body was tall and robust, his hair long and lustrous, his fingers slender and thin, and his skin was covered with fine scales.

The Duke of the State, Cheng Shiyuan, took a glance at the figure and, with his eyebrows slightly raised and showing little surprise, said, "Soul Devouring Devil Emperor?"

The Soul Devouring Devil Emperor under the black robe chuckled, his expression dark and indistinct as he watched Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, and said nothing.

He surveyed the surrounding Demon Beasts besieging North City.

He then spoke in a moderate tone:

"Duke, you are isolated and without aid now. It would be wise for you to surrender."

With two Devil Emperors descending upon North City, their Devil Qi filled the sky, imposing a great sense of oppression upon all the soldiers of the Northern Expedition Army.
