As the invincible behemoth descended on the battlefield, both the demon king and the king were astonished by the terrifying aura emanating from the Thunder Blaze Demon Dragon. In that moment, Chen Chu's face turned pale.
Half of the energy and vitality within him was instantly consumed, as if erased by an unknown rule.
At the same time, for every second the Thunder Blaze Demon Dragon existed in this temporal-spatial realm, the energy and soul power within Chen Chu were rapidly depleting. He could hold on for a maximum of three minutes before needing to stop, or else he would be drained completely.
Unexpectedly, after such a long time, he had become the 'three-minute man' once again.
Indeed, it was too strenuous to forcefully reverse time and space to summon a battle power comparable to the mythical peak, like the Thunder Blaze Demon Dragon, at the early stage of the ninth level of heaven.
This was also why Chen Chu had developed the Heavenly Base Summoning and Heavenly Base Strike techniques; he had sensed the potential risks earlier.
The fact that he could still last three minutes was due to his terrifying physical strength and having already transformed into an innate demon god body. Otherwise, a regular cultivator at the early stage of the ninth level of heaven would have instantly been drained to death.
The powers involving time and causality would never show mercy; once disturbed, one must pay the corresponding price.
As for the Qingqiu Tianyao, he had initially created this secret technique for convenience.
Being at the mythical level, he could summon the eight-tailed celestial fox, which was also mythical level, and maintain it for a long time, and after that, he could return to sleep.
He never imagined that someone could master the secret technique to such an extent during the ninth level of heaven, reaching a level that took him decades to cultivate.
With a roar, the ferocious black-red behemoth exhaled a scorching breath, its cold golden vertical pupils lifted to gaze at the sky.
As its gaze fell upon the triangle demon king, that demon king, who had consumed sixty percent of its source and looked quite formidable while suppressing the two Human Race kings, instinctively shrank its neck.
Fortunately, the terrifying behemoth merely glanced at it before turning its vicious gaze towards Barus, who was engaged in battle with the Qingqiu Tianhu.
"Is that the great demon king!" A hint of wild battle intent appeared in Chen Chu's eyes.
Initially, he had only prepared to sweep through the extraordinary war and did not plan to intervene at the demon king level, hoping to avoid drawing the attention of the higher-level demon gods who dominated the battlefield.
However, now that both sides had reached this level and he was also being targeted by the demon god, he decided to go all out.
Roar!
The black-red behemoth standing on the altar let out a brutal roar, and arcs of black and red lightning shimmered across its body, instantly releasing an even more terrifying aura.
How could it grow stronger! Instantly, the demon king and the great demon king Barus were startled, subconsciously glancing below.
Boom!
As dazzling black-red lightning surged, a deep red behemoth nearly two thousand meters long emerged.
The terrifying energy radiating from the deep red behemoth shattered the surrounding stable space, causing the ground within a hundred kilometers to tremble as if it could not bear its existence.
Facing a powerful being of great demon king level, Chen Chu dared not be careless and directly entered the behemoth's strongest deep red form.
However, as the behemoth's power exploded once more, Chen Chu suddenly found himself lying on the ground, weak and powerless; this time, he truly could not withstand it.
"Have I truly reached my limit?" Chen Chu gasped weakly. With a thought, he retrieved a golden jade bottle from the Xumi Bracelet.
Through the semi-transparent bottle, he could see a drop of pure jade-colored liquid suspended inside, its internal power forming a swirling vortex.
