The Zhou Tian Xing Chen Great Array's destructive star beams were like divine punishment spears, fiercely penetrating the Demon Nest's outer shell. The internal Chaos Annihilation Bomb detonating the energy core was like detonating explosives within a giant beast's body. The two destructive forces, one external, one internal, almost simultaneously erupted, producing terrifying chain reactions!
RUMBLE——!!!
The entire Demon Nest emitted the most mournful, most painful tremor since its birth! That was not sound, but its massive structure's scream at the law level while enduring extreme destruction!
From the outside, on the Demon Nest's twisted writhing shell, at wounds torn by star beams, light and demonic energy wildly intertwined and annihilated. Massive fissures spread rapidly like spider webs. More star power poured through fissures for secondary destruction. The originally orderly demon patrol army now fell into chaos—some turned to ash in star beam residual waves, some lost control due to broken energy circuits, biting and colliding with each other, others tried to rush toward fissures only to be purified by pure star power like moths darting into flames.
From the inside perspective, it was even more direct and terrifying!
The core forbidden zone shook and twisted violently, as if about to disintegrate at any moment. That originally calm "Primordial Dark Pool" surged with mighty waves. Viscous darkness matter churned like boiling, emanating more violent and unstable aura. Dark energy threads connecting the Demon Lord's True Body shook madly, their light flickering rapidly, becoming intermittent. Clearly, energy supply was severely disrupted.
"We succeeded!" Mu Xue felt the sudden reduction of pressure on her body and the Demon Nest's violent shaking. Ice-blue eyes flickered with a trace of brightness.
Xiao Qi dared not relax in the slightest. He knew this was only the beginning. Green Lotus Sword Domain operated at full power, resisting spatial fissures and chaotic energy flows raging everywhere due to structural collapse. His gaze firmly locked on the Demon Lord's True Body, guarding against its thunderous counterattack.
The Demon Lord's True Body floated above the boiling dark pool. Within those black hole eyes, fury and killing intent almost materialized into substance. It clearly had not expected these two ant-like intruders to bring such a level of coordinated attack from inside and outside, causing such severe damage to its crucial "incubation chamber"!
However, the internal disaster was far from over!
The chain reaction triggered by Second Senior Brother's carefully arranged "Chaos Annihilation Bomb" was spreading like plague along the Demon Nest's intricate energy network, starting from that secondary energy core!
First, from the blood pool chamber direction came a muffled thunder-like explosion. Large areas of the chamber's flesh walls necrotized and collapsed. That gestating massive demonic cocoon emitted unwilling cracking sounds, yet to be fully formed before being stunted mid-way, releasing pure and violent demonic energy, further intensifying internal chaos!
Then, as if some signal, in various areas of the Demon Nest, the "Covert Energy Node Disruptors" previously laid by Second Senior Brother, sensing intense fluctuations in the main energy network, were activated to maximum power!
PUFF! PUFF! PUFF!
Like lighting a string of firecrackers, in various areas of the Demon Nest—whether the "ovaries" responsible for gestating demons, the "furnaces" converting energy, or the "blood vessel" nodes transmitting energy—small yet extremely lethal energy malfunctions and explosions occurred one after another!
These individual explosions might not be powerful enough to shake the Demon Nest's foundation, but hundreds of nodes losing control simultaneously produced astonishing destructive power! Especially occurring within the Demon Nest's most fragile, most critical energy circulation system!
For a time, the Demon Nest's interior had flames everywhere. Demonic energy ran wild. Flesh walls necrotized and sloughed off in sheets. Support structures emitted unsettling cracking sounds. Countless low-level demons were directly annihilated in the runaway energy tide. Even some powerful elite demons became weak and frantic due to energy supply interruption.
The entire Demon Nest seemed like a fortress with its internal powder keg ignited, accelerating collapse from within!
"NO——!"
The Demon Lord's True Body finally emitted its first emotionallya roar full of fury since awakening! That was no longer indifferent spiritual fluctuation, but full of fury, heartache, and a trace of... disbelief!
Its incubation chamber it relied on to recover, even exceed peak, had actually become riddled with holes and tottering under this inside-out assault! This completely disrupted its plan, touching its most core interests!
Itviolently cast its gaze back to Xiao Qi. Those black hole-like eyes had all examination, curiosity disappeared, leaving only the purest, most extreme desire for destruction!
"You all... deserve ten thousand deaths to atone for your sins!"
With this cold judgment, the Demon Lord's True Body moved! It no longer floated above the dark pool absorbing energy, but for the first time, actively disconnected from those energy thread connections!
Although the Demon Nest was damaged and energy supply unstable, its own power remained terrifyingly strong! On that semi-transparent obsidian body, dark veins lit up like never before. A pressure even more concentrated, more terrifying, like the universe's dark side itself descending, firmly locked onto Xiao Qi and Mu Xue!
It wanted to personally crush these two culprits causing everything, along with their pathetic spark of hope, within this collapsing Demon Nest core!
The Demon Nest shook violently. The strategic goal of inside-out assault had been achieved. But what followed was the Demon Lord's true body completely enraged and determined to personally strike! The final life-and-death showdown, in this backdrop of heaven and earth collapsing, forcefully began!
