Chapter 1437 - 1437 The Ancestor's Awakening!

1437 The Ancestor’s Awakening!
The entire world was pitch-black, filled with madness, blood, and killing.

This was the Celestial Devil World, a world that belonged solely to the Celestial Devils. It was the lair of all the Celestial Devils in this small chiliocosm.

At this moment, one, two, three…

There were about a hundred Celestial Devils gathered.

If one looked carefully, they would see that every one of these hundreds of Celestial Devils was a true hegemon of a region. They were not ordinary Celestial Devil Emperors, but Two-star Celestial Devil Emperors! In fact, they were the best among Two-star Celestial Devil Emperors. They had hundreds or thousands of chiliocosm domains and innumerable Celestial Devils under their command.

But now, the hundred Two-star Celestial Devil Divine Emperors were all standing respectfully in the void.

In this void, there was a coffin. It was black and shiny, like black gold. It was as if any light would be devoured, vaguely forming a vortex that devoured everything.

No one dared to approach this vortex. Even these hundreds of Two-star Celestial Devil Emperors did not dare to approach.

“The Ancestor is about to wake up, right?” One of the Celestial Devils in a black robe said in a low voice.

“It should be soon. Didn’t we all receive the instructions? Moreover, the Epochal Cataclysm is imminent. This is the last Epochal Cataclysm, and also the only chance for the Ancestor to devour this small chiliocosm. If we lose this opportunity, we will all be annihilated, completely annihilated by the Epochal Cataclysm.”

These Celestial Devil Emperors’ hearts sank, and their expressions were all a little grim.

They were high and mighty, and commanded countless Celestial Devils under them. They even occupied half a small chiliocosm, and were very free. However, they also had things that they were powerless against and afraid of, and that was the Epochal Cataclysm. This Epochal Cataclysm was not only a calamity for the Controllers, but also a calamity for the Celestial Devils.

In fact, it was a calamity for all lifeforms. As long as they were in the small chiliocosm, no one could escape it.

While Controllers had a way to transcend, so did Celestial Devils. That was the Celestial Devil in the coffin in front of them, the “Ancestor” of all the Celestial Devils in this small chiliocosm.

“If Ancestor can succeed and completely devour the entire small chiliocosm to become an Ancestral Devil, he can break the world barrier and protect Celestial Devils like us. If not, the Ancestor will also be reduced to ashes like us.”

“That’s right. We are all Celestial Devils born in the ninth epoch, and are not comparable to Ancestor, who was born in the first epoch and experienced eight Epochal Cataclysms. This is also Ancestor’s only chance. It’s a pity that those Controllers tried everything they could to stop us, trapping us in this half of the small chiliocosm.”

“Soon, soon. The last time, Ancestor was injured, which was why he slumbered for so long. Once Ancestor awakens, and the Epochal Cataclysm arrives, those Controllers won’t have the time to care about us. Only then will Celestial Devils like us have a chance. This is a great calamity, a calamity for everyone.”

The Celestial Devil Emperors all had solemn expressions. No one was happy. Only a billion years were left before the Epochal Cataclysm arrived. All of them had lived for a billion or 10 billion years. Merely a billion years was nothing.

Thud. Thud. Thud.

Suddenly, they heard a sound like heartbeats. All the Celestial Devils instantly fell silent. They even clutched their chests with pain written all over their faces.

They were all dignified Celestial Devil Emperors, and Two-star Celestial Devil Emperors at that. There was no knowing how powerful their hearts were. Even if their hearts were destroyed and reduced to ashes, they would not be affected.

It was already very difficult for ordinary power to injure them.

But now, with the appearance of these mysterious “heartbeats”, these Two-star Celestial Devil Emperors all revealed expressions of pain. They hurriedly clutched their chests, and a trace of fear appeared on their faces, as if they were afraid of something.

“Quick, throw the offerings into the vortex and offer them to the Ancestor. The Ancestor is about to wake up!”

The hearts of the Two-star Celestial Devil Emperors palpitated. Although they all hoped that the Ancestor could wake up, they were also very afraid of the Ancestor. If they could not satisfy the Ancestor, they would be in trouble.

Celestial Devils were different from Controllers. Celestial Devils did not have that many factions. Even if they did, there was actually no order. They almost always revered strength.

Once a Celestial Devil was clearly above other Celestial Devils, it would be very easy to bring together all the Celestial Devils. The Ancestor was such an entity that was above all the Celestial Devils. Even if he fell into a deep slumber due to his injuries, no Celestial Devil would dare to be impudent.

But now, as the Ancestor gradually woke up, these Celestial Devil Emperors became even more respectful.

Buzz.

The pitch-black vortex grew larger and larger. The speed at which it spun became faster and faster. In the blink of an eye, it had already doubled in size. The vortex emitted a terrifying aura. All the Celestial Devils felt a sense of suppression from the depths of their souls.

“Sacrifices!”

The Celestial Devil Emperors shouted. Then, the offerings were thrown out. Accompanied by screams, the offerings were all thrown into the vortex.

Those offerings were Celestial Devils. Moreover, they were not ordinary Celestial Devils. They were all at least One-star Celestial Devil Emperors. The Ancestor mentioned by the Celestial Devils actually fed on other Celestial Devils, and required a large amount of offerings.

“No…”

Those Celestial Devils who were used as sacrifices were actually not innocent. Most of them had made major mistakes and were implicated by the Two-star Celestial Devil Emperors. From there, they were captured, and their strength was sealed.

In any case, the awakening of the Ancestor required a large number of sacrifices. These Celestial Devils that had violated the interests of the Two-star Celestial Devil Emperor were naturally the best offerings”
As one One-star Celestial Devil Emperor after another was thrown into the vortex, the vortex grew larger and larger, almost ten times larger than before. The fluctuations emitted from it also became stronger and stronger.

All the Celestial Devil Emperors prostrated themselves on the ground. Their entire bodies were trembling. They felt a sense of oppression from the depths of their souls, rendering them powerless to resist.

This was the case for all, be it the ordinary Celestial Devils, One-star Celestial Devil Emperors, or Two-star Celestial Devil Emperors. It was as if there was no difference between any Celestial Devils when facing this strange aura.

Thud. Thud. Thud.

As more and more offerings were made, the heartbeats in the pitch-black coffin became more and more intense. All the Celestial Devils seemed to be in great agony, but no matter what, they could not stop their bodies from trembling.

Crack.

Suddenly, a crack appeared on the black coffin. Although it was only a trace, this was the beginning of the coffin breaking.

One strand, two strands, three strands…

Cracks appeared one after another, and quickly covered the entire coffin. They sprawled all over densely like spiderwebs. Finally, the coffin seemed to be overwhelmed.

Thud.

The black coffin suddenly exploded, and the black vortex disappeared at once. A black figure gradually appeared in the void. His face was unclear, and his entire body was like a black hole, devouring all light and energy.

It was like a bottomless pit, born to devour everything!

“Is it finally coming? This is the last time. The Epochal Cataclysm is finally coming…”

A sinister and hoarse voice, accompanied by a long sigh, came from the pitch-black figure, ringing through the void. There was clearly no echo, but all the Celestial Devils felt as if it was echoed in the void for a long time.

“Greetings, Ancestor!”

All the celestial demons prostrated themselves on the ground, be it the One-star Celestial Devil Emperors or the great and powerful Two-star Celestial Devil Emperors. It was as if at this moment, the only supreme entity among the Celestial Devils was that pitch-black figure.

The Ancestral Celestial Devil had awakened!
