After Dongfang Xi became serious, many Tenglong Empire demigods felt the pressure was greatly reduced.
At the same time, a moment of contact also made them understand a truth.
Demigods and true gods, who can only exert the power of demigods, are two completely different concepts.
Even if the true god comes to Blue Star and is suppressed in power, the true god's understanding of the laws and power is completely on a different level than that of a demigod.
The Abyss Demon God's attack did not use divine power on a large scale, nor did it even use laws, but it still suppressed more than twenty demigods with one hand, making them unable to lift their heads.
If Dongfang Xi hadn't taken action in time, someone might have been injured.
"Those with strength below the two Dacheng rules should stand back!"
Dongfang Xi shouted softly.
Many demigods present hesitated for a moment, and more than a dozen demigods withdrew with unwilling expressions on their faces.
Even though they want to do their part to protect their homeland, the facts are before them.
Facing a true god, if they continue to stay here, not only will they have no effect, but they will become a burden.
Only seven demigods remained at the scene, confronting the Abyss Demon.
The retreating demigods were not idle either. Some were raiding the outer perimeter, and some went to Jiufeng City to command the retreating people.
Jiufeng City is really too close to the descent point, only dozens of kilometers away.
The aftermath of any demigod's attack could destroy Jiufeng City.
In Jiufeng City, in addition to demigods, dozens of ninth-level powerhouses and hundreds of eighth-level powerhouses gathered.
Some of them came under the orders of demigods, and some were local strong men in Yunchuan Province.
We gather here just to protect the country and its people.
The remaining seven demigods also had reservations when they took action, deliberately controlling the aftermath of the battle and trying not to affect the surrounding populated areas.
Most of the Abyss Demon God's body has already appeared on the Blue Star, and there is only one step left before it completely arrives.
However, despite its limited strength, countless new scars were added to its body.
Most of them are due to Emperor Huayuan.
With the understanding of the law of killing and the terrifying talent of a hundred times damage, even the true god was greatly suppressed.
"Dear True God, please exit the Blue Star World. If you have any requirements, we will try our best to help you complete it!"
"If you insist on destroying our home, we will definitely fight you to the bitter end!"
Emperor Tenglong kept trying to communicate with the Abyss Demon God.
Before, the Abyss Demon God had ignored it.
But this time, they seemed to be shocked by their fighting spirit and strength.
The overwhelming attacks stopped, and even the demon god's body did not continue to break free.
Seeing this scene, the seven demigods stopped in unison.
In high-intensity fighting, they also have to be careful not to affect the city at all times, which is a huge load on them.
It is naturally best if the other party is willing to negotiate.
The dull voice of the Abyss Demon God sounded, "Humans, I have no intention of becoming your enemy."
"However, I need to devour hundreds of billions of intelligent beings. If you meet my needs, I will retreat immediately."
"One hundred billion?" The expressions of the demigods of the Tenglong Empire changed.
But then, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The Tenglong Empire itself has a population of more than 100 billion.
However, it is definitely impossible to use the people of the Tenglong Empire to sacrifice the devil.
In fact, intelligent life does not necessarily refer to humans.
Most of the secret realms controlled by the Tenglong Empire contain intelligent life.
Some large secret realms have a population of over 10 billion.
There are only a dozen or so existences like the Forest Secret Realm to satisfy the Demon God's requirements.
It seems...it's not unacceptable.
"Are his words credible?" The Sifang Emperor quietly conveyed the message to Dongfang Xi.
"Of course it's not credible." Dongfang Xi replied without hesitation.
"Then why did he say that?"
"It's just to delay time and continue to use strength. Chen Yu told me that their purpose is to devour the power of living things in the entire world and turn the world into a dead zone."
"What about us?"
"Don't worry, have you forgotten our purpose? Cooperate with it and wait and see what happens."
"good."
Dongfang Xi was communicating with Nangong Wangqiu in a small group, and the other five demigods naturally didn't know about it.
They are seriously considering the request of this abyss demon.
With a population of hundreds of billions, it is neither easy nor difficult.
Hollowing out dozens of large secret realms is likely to break your muscles and cause unpredictable losses.
But at this time, they had no better solution.
"We need time to discuss!" Emperor Tenglong said to the Abyss Demon God.
"Okay, I'll give you time, but if you don't agree to my request, you can take it yourself after my true form arrives!" The Demon God of the Abyss looked deeply.
"At that time, it will not be 100 billion, but 200 billion, 300 billion, or even trillions!"
The seven top demigods of the Tenglong Empire gathered together to discuss while guarding against a sudden attack from the abyss.
Give it, you must give it.
Being able to exchange hundreds of billions of people for the retreat of this abyss demon is a result that everyone can accept.
However, how to distribute it still needs to be discussed.
First of all, there must be no Imperial citizens among them, this is a matter of principle.
It is impossible to go to war with other countries and gain such a large population in a short period of time.
Then we can only piece it together from the secret realm.
"The three large secret realms in my hands can bring together a population of nearly 3 billion. If there are any more, they will be completely abandoned."
Emperor Tenglong said first.
"I'll pay 2 billion."
"I can raise 5 billion here."
"..."
Not only the seven demigods present, but the other demigods also joined in the conversation.
At this critical moment, no one was clever, and the amount of 100 billion was quickly gathered.
Emperor Tenglong took a step forward again and said to the Abyss Demon God: "We agree to your request, please give us some preparation time."
"Of course." The Abyss Demon God readily agreed.
To show its sincerity, it even retracted part of its body into the ritual circle, leaving only the part above the chest still in the Blue Star World.
Emperor Tenglong did not hesitate and immediately issued the order.
The demigods who did not participate in the war scattered into the secret realms of the Tenglong Empire to piece together the population.
The demigod took matters into his own hands and was extremely efficient.
In just one day, the 100 billion people needed by the Abyss Demon God were collected and delivered.
The next morning, when the sun was just rising.
Emperor Tenglong held a thousand space balls created by the Sifang Emperor and talked with the Abyss Demon God.
"True alien god, here are the 100 billion intelligent beings you requested. You can check them."
"No need, I believe you don't dare to lie to me!"
The Abyss Demon God opened his palms and said, "Leave it to me, and then I will withdraw from this world!"
"Okay!" Emperor Tenglong said.
"However, please close the advent ritual circle first, and I will naturally deliver the things to you."
