"Damn, how did this happen?"
The Chaos Demon God, Luohu, who was at the center of the demon army, felt a deep sense of shame. He could feel death closing in. The emerald green branch above the sky, even just a single one, could easily crush its body and shatter its soul.
Not only did it lack the Tao now, but even if it did possess it, it was not against the leader of the councilors—the opponent it faced surpassed the terrifying existence of the God King. Just a single breath of chaotic energy falling upon them was enough to crush the entire demon army.
It was hopeless, and regret gnawed at its insides.
Had it known that the massacre of the Wood Race would provoke such an existence, it would have never approached the Wood Race. But now, it was too late to say anything.
At this moment, it was almost powerless to resist. It could only close its eyes and await death.
The other devils were in the same state, as if they were facing the power to destroy the world. Just a wisp of breath falling from above shook countless demons to death, reducing them to mere pulp.
"Chen Xi, what are you doing?"
A voice suddenly echoed, spreading throughout the entire Prehistoric World in an instant. It resonated like the sound of the Great Dao, sweeping through everything, cleansing souls.
Creatures who heard the voice involuntarily fell into a state of enlightenment, as though the dust in their hearts was suddenly swept away, and clarity washed over them.
The City Lord of Chaos?!
Almost all Chaos Demon Gods had these four words etched in their hearts. There was no doubt that the voice had come from the legendary Chaos City Lord, the mighty being who created the heavens and the worlds.
"Oops, it was discovered."
The voice came across with a sense of guilt, and the emerald green branches that had been attacking were swiftly retracted, as if the speaker were a thief, running away as fast as possible.
Rumble~~
In the next moment, the sky, which had been cracked open, quickly healed under the power of the Heavenly Dao, and all the fractures in time and space were restored, as if nothing had happened.
The terrifying divine power that had enveloped countless beings also vanished without a trace, like light piercing through the clouds and mist.
"Leaving? Just leaving like this?!"
The patriarchs and elders of the Phoenix Race, Dragon Race, Black Tortoise Race, White Tiger Race, and others woke up as if from a dream. They had just felt like they were facing the apocalypse, as if, in the next second, all Prehistoric creatures would be destroyed.
Even when they were besieged by devils, they had never felt so helpless.
When besieged by devils, they still had the power to resist. But when facing divine-like power, they had no ability to fight back and would be wiped out in an instant.
"Is that the god who surpassed the Quasi-Saint in the legend?"
The Dragon Race patriarch muttered, a bitter expression on his face. He had dismissed the previous claims made by the Chaos Demon Gods, that they were fighting for dominance among the five races. To them, it had seemed like childish games in comparison to the true great beings.
They were the strongest, and who could surpass them?
But now, faced with the existence of a taboo, with just one branch descending, it could obliterate all their beings in an instant, leaving nothing behind.
Had they not witnessed it themselves, they would never have believed it.
"That's right, but this is no ordinary god. The other party is a God Emperor, an existence standing at the apex of countless gods. Even when you become a saint, you can only hold your breath in the presence of such a being."
A Chaos Demon God spoke with deep emotion.
To be honest, even he was not qualified to see the World Tree. The Chaos Demon God that existed was something beyond his reach—a being of unimaginable power.
Unless one attains the Tao and Sanctification, only then would they be qualified to meet such an existence, but even then, meeting them was not guaranteed.
"However, such a terrifying existence actually fled in fear? What kind of being spoke just now?"
The patriarch of the Phoenix Race noticed the last sentence, and the very mention of it made the terrifying existence retreat swiftly.
"That has nothing to do with you."
The Chaos Demon God nearby was extremely cautious, unwilling to speak the name of that being. Once mentioned, it would reveal their involvement, and their intrusion into the Prehistoric World would be exposed.
Of course, they might have already been exposed.
"This!"
The patriarchs of the four major races looked serious. They felt as if they had just touched the tip of the iceberg in this world. They were nothing but frogs in a well.
At that moment, at the headquarters of the devil army.
"Patriarch Devil, what should we do now? Should we continue to exterminate the Wood Race?"
A leader of the devil army asked, his face showing lingering fear.
Though the terrifying existence had disappeared, its aura still lingered in the heavens, leaving them paralyzed with fear.
"Forget it, the Wood Race is just a trivial issue, not worth our concern. They've already lost more than half of their forces. They can only retreat to their headquarters and pose no threat to us."
After a moment of thought, Luo Hu decided to abandon further plans against the Wood Race.
The deterrent power of the World Tree was far too great. Even though the World Tree had been frightened away by the Chaos City Lord, it could not deny the sheer power of the World Tree.
The reason Luo Hu had provoked the World Tree was probably because he had gone too far, attempting to eradicate the Wood Race, which incurred the wrath of such a supreme god.
Extreme actions often lead to unexpected consequences.
And if it offends the World Tree, even if Luo Hu obtains the Hongmeng Purple Qi and reaches the Saint Realm, he would still have to face the World Tree, making it difficult for him to make any further progress in the Chaos City.
It was better to let the weak Wood Race go. After all, they posed no real threat to the demon army.
Of course, if the Wood Race decided to act recklessly and challenge the devil army, Luo Hu wouldn't hesitate to crush them.
For now, he would spare the lives of the impoverished Wood Race.
"Luckily for them, we will withdraw."
With a grand wave of his hand, Luo Hu immediately led the demon army in a swift retreat.
At this moment, many Chaos Demon Gods, watching in the shadows, saw the scene unfold.
"Damn it, Luo Hu is extremely fortunate."
"If the City Lord of Chaos had arrived a step later, Luo Hu would have been finished."
"There's no helping it. Now that Luo Hu's luck is at its peak, it won't be easy to bring him down."
"It doesn't matter. The more prosperous his luck, the harder his fall will be. We'll see how he dies in the future."
"It's time to make a move. Luo Hu has demonstrated the full extent of his power, and he's at the heart of the catastrophe. If we can kill him, we'll be blessed by heaven and earth and obtain the Hongmeng Purple Qi."
"Jie Jie, we'll see who the true player is. Let Luo Hu be proud for now."
"Heaven and Earth have the same force, but a hero is bound when luck is diverted."
The Chaos Demon Gods whispered among themselves, secretly forming an alliance of offense and defense.
Among them, the leaders, Immortal Yang Mei and Hong Jun, seemed confident of their victory.
