"Something is wrong in the Demon Realm!"

This was the first sentence that Ruoshan spoke as soon as his eyes returned to normal.

His forehead was covered with a few beads of sweat and even though it was next to impossible to detect but his breathing was a little bit quicker than normal.

"What do you mean?" The Supreme Immortal asked as he looked at the Evernight Lord in confusion.

"Something or someone is trying to destroy the demon realm. We need to go!"

It was Hei Long who spoke this time. To others, he could have appeared as majestic and strong as usual. However, his brothers could tell that he was left just as shaken as Ruoshan.

"Fine. Let's hurry!" The Heaven Emperor said as he pulled Hei Long beside him, ready to teleport any second.

"You guys don't need to come. Let me and my brother handle this situation. You guys go and meet Xingan." Ruoshan said as he looked at the magical mirror with his eyes full of longing.

"Stop talking nonsense! If we all will go then we will be able to handle the situation in much less time. We all will go and meet her together." Wen Guiying said as he pulled the magical mirror into his space.

The next second, the silhouette of the five Immortals disappeared from inside the pavilion.

The guards that were struggling for such a long time due to the powerful auras of the Immortals finally took deep breaths to calm themselves down.

"What is going on here?"

The Immortals stared in surprise at the sight that they came across as soon as they appeared in the Northern Province of the Demon Realm.

The dark mist that had always been lurking around the province had suddenly thickened in density.

Everything was covered by that mist. They could see the demons struggling to breathe as the mist kept suffocating them.

However, the most surprising was the army of thousands of weird-looking creatures.

Their lower body resembled that of a huge snake while their upper body looked exactly like that of a human.

They had four horns on their heads and their eyes gleamed bright red. Long sharp fangs like a lethal snake and sharp claws that gleamed even in the darkness.

"What are these things?" Ruoshan asked out loud to no one in particular as he took in the army of those weird creatures that were about to attack the already dying demons.

"Let's not waste our time. Hei Long, you should go and check the situation of the southern province. Ruoshan and Yueliang will try to force out the dark mist away from this place. While I and Guying will take care of those creatures."

The Heaven Emperor hurriedly ordered his brothers who immediately followed his commands without any questions or objections.

The Second Demon Prince immediately teleported away to the southern province of the demon realm to see how the situation was there.

Ruoshan and Lord Yueliang pulled on their spiritual qi to form a huge spiritual force that started pushing the mist away from the demons.

Meanwhile, the Heaven Emperor and the Supreme Immortal flew towards the army of thousands of creatures that looked hungry for blood.

Soon enough, the Evernight Province was filled with the sound of chaos and disaster as bodies after bodies of those snake-like creatures fell on the ground.

The painful cries and scent of the sulfur filled the air of the Northern part of the Demon Realm.

While on one hand, the Heaven Emperor and Supreme Immortal were busy killing the enemies, Ruoshan and Lord Yueliang too succeeded in distracting the mist as they kept pushing their energy into the force that was battling with the mist.

At that moment no one knew that this small battle that would last for weeks was just a mere starting.

The enemy was busy in planning a massacre that was going to leave the three realms in chaos and dread.

"My Queen, our army has already succeeded in grabbing the attention of all the five High Immortals. However, there's no trace of the Shadow Lord among them."

A man who was wearing leather pants and cut sleeves leather shirt accompanied by a long black cloak whose hoddie was hiding most of his face, said as he bowed a little to the woman sitting on the high throne.

His fingers were covered in leather gloves while his bare arms were decorated in tattoos that were covering the skin of his neck too.

On the other hand, the woman who was sitting on the high throne made of black colored roots, flicked her fingers over the candle that was burning beside her.

Her long dark red painted nails were as sharp as daggers that could pierce through human skin and kill them within a second.

"Good. Make sure to keep them in the Demon Realm as long as possible. As for the Shadow Lord, I'm sure if he's not with the rest of his brothers then he's with the Little Princess. I'll take care of them." The woman said as she played with a strand of her long black hair.

"Yes, My Queen." The man bowed before he disappeared from the dark throne room.

A small tiny string of black mist materialized in front of the woman as soon as the man disappeared from the room.

"Leave for the Guixian Island to deliver my message to our pawn. Remember that you will have barely ten minutes to complete this task before the pure spiritual energy of the island would finish you off. Don't even dare to fail."

The woman ordered the little ball of black mist which shook a little as if to show its obedience before it too disappeared from the room.

The woman closed her eyes to guide the mist ball inside the barriers of the Guixian Academy.

It was surely not an easy task to fight against the ancient and powerful barriers of the Academy, but it was surely not an impossible task.

As soon as the mist ball succeeded in passing through the powerful barriers of the Academy, the woman's eyes flew open.

Even though a trail of blood seeped out from the corner of her lips but her dark black eyes were gleaming with the taste of victory.

The three realms were no longer as safe and powerful as they used to be. The darkness had succeeded in seeping into all the realms of the Immortal World and now it was planning to take over.
