"Demons… demons, there really are demons in this World!"
"Damn it, why would such terrifying Greater Demons descend upon Earth! Did someone open the gates of hell?"
"My God! Please appear quickly and save your faithful believers!"
"It's over, everything is over, the World is going to perish, all of us will be killed by the Greater Demons."
"Who else can save us!"
...
The entire Earth was now plunged into an unprecedented great turmoil.
Countless people felt a sense of powerlessness at this moment; such terrifying Greater Demons were simply not something they could contend with.
At the Mutant school, Professor X and Magneto both looked towards the sky with horrified expressions.
Especially the Professor, who possessed psychic powers; he felt like his brain was about to explode at this moment!
He had only used his mental power to probe the phantom in the sky, and upon contact, countless meaningless, chaotic messages rushed into his brain.
Instantly, blood flowed from the Professor's eyes and ears.
Even more terrifying, Professor X's full head of hair fell off as if sprayed with depilatory liquid.
Perhaps, baldness was his ultimate destiny!
In the original timeline, because he was almost reincarnated by Apocalypse, and affected by the ritual's power, he directly became bald.
Unexpectedly, even in this timeline, which was messed up by Shen Mu's interference, he still couldn't escape the fate of going bald.
"Master, where are you?"
Although she possessed the Phoenix Force, Little Phoenix Jean Grey was terrified and her face turned pale upon seeing such a terrifying scene for the first time.
Meanwhile, Apocalypse, who had already sworn allegiance to Shen Mu, now looked at Mephisto in the sky and felt incredibly insignificant, while an endless fear surged in his heart.
"Is this the terrifying existence that Master said far surpassed me? I didn't expect it to appear now!"
Apocalypse muttered to himself.
He truly felt like he was just a Joker, and the World he thought he knew was actually so unfamiliar.
At this moment, only Shen Mu himself was truly confronting this Greater Demon.
Standing before this Greater Demon, Shen Mu finally understood what the strong individuals in this Universe were truly like.
"What a Mephisto, what a King of Greater Demons."
There was no trace of fear in Shen Mu's eyes; instead, they were filled with an intense fighting spirit that was almost overflowing.
"Are you thinking that I can't do anything to you because I can't descend upon Earth in my true form!"
"Blackheart was originally created and cultivated by me specifically so that I could descend into any dimension in a near-true form."
"Originally, this wasn't prepared for you, but your value has captivated me immensely. Once I have you, this body will no longer be needed!"
At this moment, Blackheart's body had completely transformed; a crimson body, draped in a crimson cloak, with a pair of curved horns on his head, just like Shen Mu's.
He slowly walked towards Shen Mu, exuding a terrifying sense of oppression.
"Oh, and you don't need to count on Ancient One coming to help you anymore!"
"After all, she's already preoccupied. I specifically invited an old friend to catch up with her."
"Now, I give you two choices: first, voluntarily abandon this body. As a gift, I will bestow upon you a powerful Greater Demon body and allow you to borrow my power."
"Second, I will annihilate your soul and take your body. Make your choice!"
Mephisto generously gave Shen Mu a choice.
"My choice is... to beat you to death!"
At this moment, Shen Mu had almost mobilized every cell in his body, bringing himself to his strongest state.
As Shen Mu's words fell, his figure instantly vanished, and when he reappeared, he had transformed into his dragon form, slamming directly into Mephisto's face with boundless, violent force.
"Boom!"
Like a comet hitting Earth, a terrifying tremor spread from beneath their feet, and the ground suddenly collapsed, forming a massive crater several kilometers in diameter.
The aftermath of the collision instantly annihilated countless surrounding buildings, and those mortals who hadn't managed to escape exploded into blood mist.
However, facing such a blow, Mephisto's head was merely twisted and deformed, but his body remained completely still.
"Heh! This kind of power is still far from enough to knock me down!"
Mephisto sneered, then grabbed at Shen Mu with extreme speed.
However, Shen Mu, with his Super Brain activated, reacted even faster, also dodging with super speed!
Then, their figures almost disappeared, completely invisible, not even a trace of their shadows could be seen.
The only signs were the continuous terrifying sounds and the occasional explosions and collapsing buildings.
"Your speed and strength are already on par with mine! What a perfect body!"
"But, I am a Greater Demon."
Mephisto finished speaking and raised his hand, unleashing a magic spell, which instantly fell upon Shen Mu.
The magic used by this Multiverse-level Greater Demon weakened Shen Mu in an instant, causing him to lose almost a fifth of his strength.
And this was after Shen Mu had already compensated for his magic deficiencies.
If he hadn't compensated for the deficiencies, he would have probably become a weakling from that single attack.
However, two seconds later, a blue light flashed over Shen Mu's body, and the power of that magic was purified by the horse talisman's divine power.
Seeing this, Shen Mu felt a slight joy in his heart.
"How miraculous, the power within your body actually automatically purifies negative magic."
"Then let me see how many more surprises you will give me!"
As the battle resumed, Mephisto began to accelerate his attack frequency.
This battle raged from the ground of New York all the way to the Atlantic Ocean.
During the battle, Mephisto found an opportunity and grabbed one of Shen Mu's hands.
Then he fiercely threw him down into the ocean.
"Bang!"
Shen Mu's body, like a falling meteor, directly crashed onto the seabed several kilometers deep.
The terrifying tremor unleashed a massive tsunami, even reawakening dormant volcanoes.
However, this amount of damage was useless against Shen Mu's body; he recovered completely in less than a breath's time.
But, the Sun in the sky was obscured by Mephisto's magic, preventing Shen Mu from enhancing himself by absorbing sunlight.
"Why would two such powerful monsters appear on Earth? New York is already destroyed!"
"The extinction of humanity is already imminent!"
"I can't take any more! Farewell, World!"
After Shen Mu and Mephisto's rampage, New York was almost completely destroyed, with deep craters tens to hundreds of meters deep everywhere, and ruins scattered about.
Many of the survivors had suffered psychological breakdowns and, in despair, chose to end their own lives.
