Prince Li Ming had only just finished speaking.
There was an earth-shattering sound as the gigantic energy pyramid seemed to be torn apart from the middle by an incomparably powerful hand.
Then, countless huge energy crystals flew into the sky.
The entire energy pyramid was instantly torn apart and completely destroyed.
All the Evil Spirit Warriors present were instantly stunned.
As for Prince Li Ming, he was completely shocked.
In this world, there was nothing more humiliating than this moment.
He had finally taken over the authority of the Empire of Darkness and was in high spirits to fight a big battle with Yang Dingtian.
Moreover, his strategy would definitely work.
Letting the Saint-level undead and Shura assassinate the higher-ups of the Council of Light in the middle of the night was simply unsolvable.
In the end, just as he said that, the energy pyramid was completely destroyed.
In order to create these two energy pyramids, the Demon City's Merchant Palace had already exhausted everything.
In order to maximize the power of the energy pyramid, the Evil ways had taken out all the relevant crystals. The energy pyramid was built as big as it could be.
Once it was blown up, it meant that the undead's path to enter the human kingdom was completely cut off.
Almost at the same moment that the pyramid was blown up, a black shadow suddenly shot out of the ruins like lightning.
It was Wulingzi, Wulingzi, who had already broken through to the Saint-level.
Immediately, Prince Li Ming was filled with vigilance.
However, the first thing the Infernal Queen did was to lock the Spirit Vulture tightly.
Prince Li Ming's gaze shifted away from Wulingzi and immediately thought that Yang Dingtian must have brought a destructive bomb to blow up the energy pyramid.
Almost instinctively, Prince Li Ming wanted to order all the Evil Spirit Warriors to capture the Council of Light's sneak attack.
But soon, he gave up on this naive idea.
Yang Dingtian had the Naga royalty sword soul and two Saint-level powerhouses by his side at all times. It was a fool's dream to capture him.
He looked down at the ruins of the pyramid that had been blown up, and his heart ached. He resisted the urge to vomit blood and ordered, "Return to the Empire of Darkness!"
Immediately, all the Evil Spirit Warriors followed the wand dejectedly and entered the Empire of Darkness.
The morale of the entire Evil Spirit Army was extremely low.
Wulingzi glanced at his daughter and frowned slightly, but he did not do or say anything in the end.
…
After entering the Empire of Darkness, Prince Li Ming was relieved of Wulingzi, and the Queen Devil Queen no longer locked onto the Vulture all the time.
In the Skyreach Imperial Capital of the Empire of Darkness, the Queen Devil Queen and Prince Li Ming controlled the life and death of almost everyone, including the Saint-level powerhouse Wulingzi.
Prince Li Ming even had the impulse to imprison Wulingzi in the energy prison and take away his second-grade evil spirit since he was completely useless now.
In this way, his energy reserve and Xuan Meridians would not be able to support his Saint-level cultivation and would be turned into ashes.
But soon, he gave up on this plan because there was no need.
Because in the Empire of Darkness, even the Saint-level Wulingzi would not be a threat. Instead, he could take the opportunity to win people's hearts and show that he was open and aboveboard.
More importantly, what should he do next?
There were two methods. The first method was to take the initiative to attack.
The second method was to hide in the Empire of Darkness and wait for the return of The Demon King Wentian.
Logically, the second method should be to hide in the Empire of Darkness and do nothing.
Because when the return of The Demon King Wentian, all the problems would be solved.
But Prince Li Ming would not allow himself to be so cowardly. He had just obtained the power of the Empire of Darkness, but in the end, he did nothing and could only hide in the Empire of Darkness. Wouldn't that make him seem very incompetent?
At this moment, he suddenly understood why the Queen Devil Queen had to launch the second Doomsday Battle.
Because sometimes, a leader's face was more important than anything else.
If Prince Li Ming did nothing, it would be a devastating blow to his prestige and the morale of the Evil ways.
He could not stay still, he had to counterattack.
Then, how should he counterattack?
The real counterattack was to seize the Gate of the Human Kingdom from Yang Dingtian's hands and directly connect the Little Western Paradise to the Human Kingdom.
This way, the Saint-level experts, Half-level experts, and Infinite Grandmasters of the Little Western Paradise would be able to continuously enter the Human Kingdom.
In this way, the Radiant Parliament went from having the upper hand to being in a precarious situation.
But unfortunately, the current power of the Evil ways was much weaker than the Council of Light in terms of martial arts.
Relying on martial arts alone was not enough to take back the Gate of the Human Kingdom.
Then, he had to use other methods. Perhaps it was a diversion, or perhaps he could use a scheme, or perhaps he could use a hostage to force Yang Dingtian to give up the Gate of the Human Kingdom.
Using a hostage to force Yang Dingtian to compromise was the only thought in Prince Li Ming's mind.
And the best hostage was Yang Dingtian's family.
Then, was it possible to rob and kidnap Yang Dingtian's family?
Was it possible?
…
Yang Dingtian and the other two returned to Cloud Sky City. The entire Cloud Sky City once again held a small banquet.
At this time, the victory of the Second Apocalyptic War had already spread in all directions.
Two times, two World Extermination Wars, both were glorious victories.
Evil ways were all wiped out in an instant. This should be enough to eliminate the fear of Evil ways in the Human Kingdom.
After the small celebration banquet, they entered an emergency meeting.
The topic of the meeting was: What should the Council of Light do next?
"In the Second Apocalyptic War, the Evil ways were defeated. What will they do next?
How will they take revenge? "Yang Dingtian asked.
The Mermaid Queen Violets said, "When the Undead Army was wiped out, the Queen Devil Queen directly vomited blood.
So, she is very likely to be disappointed in herself, and perhaps she will hand over the power of the Evil ways. "
When this was said, Yang Dingtian couldn't help but nod.
Among those present, besides the Mermaid Queen, Yang Dingtian understood the Queen Devil Queen better.
Violets said that the Devil Queen would hand over the power, and this was very likely.
Suddenly, Yang Dingtian said, "If the Devil Queen gives up the power, will it be Mu Dan, Dishi Bian, or Prince Li Ming?"
"It can only be Prince Li Ming."
Dongfang Minmie said, "Dishi Bian and Bing Ling have their wills suppressed by the Evil Spirits, so they can't be the first leaders."
Suddenly, Yang Dingtian's heart trembled.
If Prince Li Ming took the power, it would be troublesome. This person was extremely cunning and vicious.
Although the Queen Devil Queen was vicious and merciless, she didn't even blink when she said that she would massacre a city.
However, she was very direct. The first time she massacred a city, the second time she would do the same. She wanted to destroy hundreds of millions of human countries, and win the War of Extinction.
In short, the Queen Devil Queen was very particular about her face.
But Prince Li Ming was different. This person did things by hook or by crook.
Qin Wanchou said, "If I were Prince Li Ming, the first thing I would do would be revenge, the most vicious revenge.
Let Sect Master Yang Dingtian feel the pain of his bones. "
Dongfang Minmie said, "He might send Saint-level powerhouses to make a move against Sect Master's family.
Is the Netherworld Sea safe enough?
The ancient giant beast shouldn't be able to resist two Saint-level powerhouses. "
The Queen Devil Queen had a bottom line when doing things, and basically wouldn't touch Yang Dingtian's family.
But at this time, Prince Li Ming wouldn't have this bottom line.
Yang Dingtian said, "The Netherworld Sea should be safe enough. Yanyan, Master's wife, and the children are staying in Wu Yu's palace. A very powerful energy array has been set up, and even Saint-level powerhouses can't enter."
Immediately after, Yang Dingtian continued, "Of course, if there is a need, I can send my family to Mount Buzhou."
Qin Wanchou said, "If he can't find a chance to make a move on Sect Master's family.
Then, he might make a move on the higher-ups of the Council of Light.
Although these hostages aren't as important as Sect Master's family, Sect Master is kind and takes pity on them.
So, even if the higher-ups of the Council of Light are captured or killed, it will be a huge blow to Sect Master.
“
This was what Yang Dingtian was most afraid of.
Previously, the Evil ways wouldn't touch the higher-ups of the Council of Light, and Yang Dingtian wouldn't capture the Evil Warriors. It was a tacit understanding between both sides.
But obviously, this tacit understanding had been completely shattered.
And if Prince Li Ming was really in charge, he would be completely unscrupulous.
To completely avoid this, of course, it was possible to gather all the higher-ups of the Council of Light in Cloud Sky City.
Under the protection of two Saint-level powerhouses, a large number of Half-Saints, and a huge lightning energy shield, it seemed to be absolutely safe.
But the Council of Light had a lot of things to do every day.
The Council of Light's army, most of its secret bases, and manufacturing factories couldn't do without the management of the Council of Light's higher-ups.
Evil ways could mostly hide in the safety of the Empire of Darkness and only send out Saint-level and Half-Saint powerhouses to wreak havoc in the human countries.
Evil ways didn't need to govern any place, and they didn't need to control any army.
But the Council of Light had to manage the entire human countries and had a huge responsibility.
Moreover, it was after the war. Whether it was the reconstruction work or the work of the army, they were all extremely busy.
Making all the higher-ups of the Council of Light hide because they were afraid of death?
This couldn't be done. Yang Dingtian couldn't do it, and the Council of Light couldn't do it either.
If they were so afraid of death, then what right did the Council of Light have to rule this world!
Therefore, the problem was almost unsolvable.
Evil ways sent out Saint-level and Half-Saint powerhouses to capture and kill the higher-ups of the Council of Light. There was simply no way to stop them!
For a moment, the entire Council of Light's higher-ups fell into silence!
…
At this time, in the Skyreach Imperial Capital of the Empire of Darkness, the Devil Queen officially handed over the temporary highest authority of the Temple of Annihilation to Prince Li Ming in front of all the Evil Spirit Warriors.
Before The Demon King Wentian returned, Prince Li Ming had the final say in the entire Evil ways.
Prince Li Ming didn't beat around the bush. He directly said, "From now on, our battle with Yang Dingtian of the Council of Light will enter a new stage."
Everyone lowered their heads.
Prince Li Ming continued, "Next, we have two goals. The first is to take revenge on the Council of Light and deal a fatal blow to Yang Dingtian.
The second goal is to open the door to the human countries and let the experts of Little Western Paradise enter the human countries continuously. This way, our martial forces will instantly crush the Council of Light. "
Everyone was still depressed. Now, it seemed that the strength of the Evil Spirit Warriors was far behind Yang Dingtian's martial strength. It was already impossible to rely on martial strength to seize the door to the human countries.
Prince Li Ming said, "In order to achieve these two goals, I announce that Operation Viper has begun!"
Operation Viper?
Immediately, everyone looked at Prince Li Ming.
Prince Li Ming said, "Viper has two meanings. One is to hide, and the other is to launch sneak attacks.
Next, most of the Evil Spirit Warriors will stay in the Empire of Darkness to ensure their safety.
We will only send experts of Half-Sage level and above to leave the Empire of Darkness and launch sneak attacks on the Council of Light. "
Prince Li Ming's gaze swept across everyone. "What do you mean by sneak attacks?
It means that we won't let any Martial Venerable level or above martial artists of the Council of Light go. As long as we see them, kill half of them and capture the other half!
No matter how powerful Yang Dingtian is, it's impossible for him to protect all the experts of Martial Venerable level and above.
If he does so, the Council of Light will collapse instantly, and the human countries will collapse instantly. "
Kill or capture any expert of Martial Venerable level or above!
This plan was very simple, but it was extremely poisonous and completely impossible to defend against.
In fact, Yang Dingtian wouldn't even be able to take revenge.
This was because most of the Evil Spirit Warriors were in the Darkness Empire's Skyreach Imperial Capital.
Of course, some of the Evil Spirit Warriors had fallen into Yang Dingtian's hands.
However, Prince Li Ming didn't care about the lives of these people.
On the other hand, Yang Dingtian cared about the lives of the Council of Light's martial artists.
Despicable was the master of despicable people.
Justice was sometimes the binding stone of righteous people.
Prince Li Ming said, "As long as we kill a few hundred and capture a few hundred high-ranking members of the Council of Light, we will be able to do it.
If Yang Dingtian doesn't compromise, he can only collapse.
I announce that all Evil Spirit Warriors of Half-Sage level and above will participate in Operation Viper, including Her Majesty Devil Queen. "
"Okay," the Devil Queen said.
The Evil Spirit Warriors present instinctively felt a chill down their spines.
Although Prince Li Ming's strategy didn't look good, it was vicious enough and would definitely succeed.
If he became the leader of the Evil ways, it would be a nightmare for the Council of Light and Yang Dingtian.
After the pyramid's energy array was destroyed, Prince Li Ming suffered a huge blow, but he quickly recovered.
This was his first real confrontation with Yang Dingtian. He could only win and not lose.
Although the pyramid's energy array was destroyed, many Half-Sage and Half-Sage Undead Shura couldn't enter the human countries.
However, the battle still had to go on.
Moreover, Prince Li Ming realized that without the Half-Sage or Saint Undead Shura, although it would greatly reduce his plan, he could still carry it out and bring Yang Dingtian bone-piercing pain.
Yang Dingtian's figure appeared in Prince Li Ming's mind.
The failure of these two Great Wars not only caused a fatal blow to the Devil Queen, but also to Prince Li Ming.
One had to know that in front of Prince Li Ming, Yang Dingtian was just an ant that could be trampled to death with one foot.
Even after Yang Dingtian broke through to Half-Sage and unified the human countries, Prince Li Ming didn't take him seriously.
When he went to Cloud Sky City to deliver the invitation, he still seemed to be full of contempt.
However, in these two Great Wars.
The first time, Yang Dingtian returned as the king, and the Naga royalty sword spirit appeared, causing the Legion of Doom to be completely wiped out.
The second time, Yang Dingtian completely mastered the power of lightning and destroyed the Undead Army.
In an instant, Yang Dingtian was not only on equal footing with him.
He was even starting to look down on Prince Li Ming.
This was something that Li Ming couldn't tolerate at all. A person who used to be an ant was starting to look down on him.
"Yang Dingtian, I'm about to make a move. How are you going to deal with it?
I know that you must have guessed what I'm going to do, but you can't stop it at all! "
Prince Li Ming said coldly in his heart, "As long as I make a move, you'll still be that pitiful worm in the Yin Yang Mirror a few years ago. There's nothing you can do."
...
After pondering for a long time, the higher-ups of the Council of Light couldn't come up with any way to stop the revenge of the Evil ways.
Of course, many people knew that a large number of Evil Spirit Warriors had become captives of the Council of Light.
But if Prince Li Ming really became the leader of the Evil ways, then these captives would be useless.
Prince Li Ming didn't even seem to care about Dongli's life and death. Why would he care about these Tom, Dick, and Harry?
Qin Wanchou suddenly said, "Since you're a member of the Council of Light, you have to be mentally prepared for any encounter.
There will be sacrifices in any struggle. Sacrifices are normal. "
His meaning was very clear. Since they couldn't stop it, then they wouldn't stop it and bear these losses.
If someone in the Council of Light had to die, then there was nothing they could do.
The Mermaid Queen Violets said, "Use Dongli as a hostage and threaten the Evil ways to not act rashly. Otherwise, throw the thing into the dark matter and perish together.
In this way, the Void Fire on his body will be completely destroyed. "
Without a doubt, the Void Fire on Dongli's body was a loss that the Evil ways couldn't bear.
Therefore, Dong Li was a valuable hostage, and a very valuable one at that.
Yang Dingtian shook his head and said, "Dongli as a hostage corresponds to Vulture. If we completely destroy Dongli, then something terrible will happen to Vulture."
That's right, it was like this.
The Mermaid Queen immediately lowered her head. Before Vulture was rescued, Dongli couldn't be touched.
If they touched Dongli, Li Ming would definitely touch Vulture.
He wouldn't kill her, but Vulture was a woman. She had a lot of experiences that might be even more painful than death.
This wouldn't do, that wouldn't do. Could it be that there was nothing they could do while Evil ways viciously retaliated?
Yang Dingtian closed his eyes for a long time, then opened them and said, "There's only one way, but I don't know if it can be done.
If it can be done, then the revenge of Evil ways will disappear in an instant. "
"What's the way?" Violets asked.
"Attack the Empire of Darkness and attack the headquarters of Evil ways."
Yang Dingtian: "In this way, Evil ways can only desperately protect the Empire of Darkness and have no spare energy to do anything else!"
That's right, this was extremely correct strategically.
Whether it was on the battlefield or in a struggle, the most taboo thing was to follow someone else's baton.
Passively defending was the worst strategy.
And sometimes, it was impossible to defend at all.
Therefore, there was a saying in strategy: you fight your own, I fight mine.
In short, one must never passively dance to the footsteps of others. One must seize the initiative.
However, how difficult was it to attack the Empire of Darkness?
The Mermaid Queen Violets said, "It's not like you haven't entered the Empire of Darkness. Even Naga could only desperately escape inside, let alone us.
Even if a Saint-level powerhouse enters, they will only turn into ashes.
The Empire of Darkness itself is an incomparably huge energy array. Attacking the Empire of Darkness is completely a one-way trip. "
The Mermaid Queen Violets directly rejected this plan.
Yang Dingtian: "When I said to attack the Empire of Darkness, I didn't mean to enter the Empire of Darkness.
All the energy of the Empire of Darkness comes from a few continents.
Whether it's the Skyreach Imperial Capital or the Dark Castle, they are all connected by countless energy channels.
And these energy channels are directly connected to the Yin Yang Mirror, the Demon Realm, the World of Ice and Snow, and other continents.
If we cut off these energy channels, the Empire of Darkness will completely lose its energy. At that time, we can directly attack the Empire of Darkness! "
As soon as Yang Dingtian's voice fell, he immediately received many admiring gazes.
This was Yang Dingtian. Usually, he wasn't outstanding in terms of strategy.
However, at critical moments, his strategy and vision would be higher than everyone else's.
If this plan could succeed, it wouldn't be as simple as just stopping the revenge of the Evil ways.
Instead, it would be an even more glorious victory on the basis of two huge victories.
Since there were no other ideas, Yang Dingtian immediately made a decision and decided to attack the Empire of Darkness himself.
…
At night, Yang Dingtian seized the time to devour the energy essence and try his best to make a big breakthrough in his cultivation.
…
Note: A chapter of nearly 6,000 words has been submitted.
I didn't sleep last night and rushed home today to transfer my household registration.
The most depressing thing is that there's a power outage at home.
Therefore, I wrote this chapter with the battery of my laptop and uploaded it through the mobile network.
Today, this should be the only update.
I'll think of a way to write and upload it tomorrow. I won't stop updating.
