The battlefield where the Legion of Heaven and the Legion of the Abyss clash!

This place was once vibrant with life, but now it is a dead land, filled with the lingering resentment of countless beings. Everywhere, one can faintly hear the sounds of unwilling grudges drifting about.

A giant, engulfed in black flames, had his head chopped off, and countless angels cheered for their victory. Lucifer, carrying the head of the Flamebreaker Demon, proudly displayed her triumphant identity.

Wrapped in golden armor around her voluptuous body, her golden divine sword shining brightly, but her somewhat pale complexion was abnormal. Defeating the Creator with an immortal body relied on the weapons and cunning left behind by the "Master," but Lucifer had also paid a hefty price.

Before she could even rejoice, as she was about to withdraw from the battlefield, a terrifying aura suddenly descended. This aura was even more evil than the Flamebreaker Demon she had just defeated, purer and more dreadful, giving her a feeling of facing the "Master."

Looking up, Lucifer saw a terrifying black serpent carrying a man who gazed at her coldly. His eyes seemed to show disdain, as if looking at a mere insect, but there was also a curious glint in his eyes as he observed her.

"Which Demon Lord from the Abyss are you?!" Lucifer asked calmly.

"Demon Lord... Hehe."

With Bexia's light laughter, the most powerful forces from the Abyss appeared behind him one after another. Sensing their arrival, Lucifer's face grew paler, even trembling slightly. She could clearly feel that these newly arrived Abyss Demon Lords were not weaker than the Flamebreaker Demon she had slain, with most of them even more powerful.

"Is this the power of the Abyss?" Lucifer's voice trembled. She had thought that killing a Demon Lord would cause significant damage to the Abyss, but now it seemed like wishful thinking. Even if she killed a hundred Flamebreaker Demons, it would mean nothing to the Abyss, just like clipping a small piece of nail.

"You must be the Abyss Demon Lord?" Lucifer looked at Bexia, but this time, her eyes showed fear and determination, rather than the infatuation of their first encounter.

Bexia did not respond to her words. The meeting of the two seemed like a twist of fate. Bexia even considered trying to rewrite destiny, to spare Lucifer and see if the future could change.

But this thought was extinguished in an instant. The cost of alteration was too high. Having studied the remaining pages of the Book of Time, he knew the price needed for changing history, having delved into the two forces of the original chaos and the power of time, more than others.

"I, as the leader of the Legion of Heaven, declare war on you. Abyss Demon Lord, do you dare to battle me?" Even if her strength had not fully recovered, Lucifer's dignity as the leader of the Legion of Heaven left her with no choice but to fight to the end.

"Just a small eternity, no trouble for the Abyss Lord to handle, this old bull is willing to capture it for the Abyss Lord!" A giant ten-meter-tall bull-headed monster with a huge axe came forward respectfully and said to Bexia.

"King Quakemaw, you may stand down!" Bexia glanced lightly at the bull-headed monster. One of the more powerful Demon Kings, the original form being a divine earth-splitting bull, an existence nearing the limits of creation; even ordinary divine masters would find it easy to confront Lucifer.

With a bunch of strong beings under him, just a few could crush everything in the Legion of Heaven, but Bexia did not want them to act. Their destructive desires were too strong and uncontrolled, and he feared that they might damage Lucifer, so he had to personally intervene.

"Since you want to battle with me, let's see if you are qualified!" As the Demon Lord of the Abyss, Bexia naturally spoke arrogantly, "Come forward and speak before this Demon Lord!"

"Hmph! So be it!" Lucifer snorted coldly, her three pairs of golden wings flapping as she raised her golden sword and thrust it towards him.

Of course, Bexia could not allow Lucifer to act recklessly. In an instant, the aura of the Abyss Demon Lord emanated, exerting a terrifying pressure that seemed to cause the surrounding universe to tremble. Under the indiscriminate pressure, Lucifer's figure dropped instantly, and not just her, even the other Abyss Demon Lords felt their strength suppressed by at least thirty percent.

"It seems you are not qualified after all!" Bexia walked step by step towards the fallen Lucifer, walking on the stars, each step feeling like a heavy blow to the heart, giving a terrifying suffocating sensation!

"Attack!" Lucifer suddenly burst out as Bexia neared, her golden sword stabbing towards his forehead. However, to her despair, her divine artifact, known among the angels as indestructible, could not pierce the Demon Lord's skin. Even the tip of the sword shattered under the rebound force.

"How is this possible?!" Lucifer's eyes showed deep disbelief as she knelt on the ground, looking at the broken sword in her hand. Under the overwhelming absolute power, she couldn't even muster the slightest hint of resistance.

"The ultimate radiance leads to endless darkness, and the ultimate darkness leads to eternal light!" Bexia produced a pitch-black Divinity in his hand and unhesitatingly pressed it into Lucifer's lifeless eyes. Her body trembled uncontrollably, the brilliant light gradually dimming, her golden feathers turning as black as ink, a wave of darkness rising from her...
