With the combined efforts of the three Demon Emperors, the gate to the Lingxiao Treasure Vault seemed to finally succumb to the pressure and was about to break open.

The clicking sound stopped after a while, and the two imposing doors remained firmly closed.

The Soul-Devouring Demon Emperor, known for his volatile temper, roared upon seeing this, "Come again! Today I'll smash this damn gate to pieces!"

The other two Demon Emperors quickly followed suit, raising their bronze pillars once more and using all their magic to ram them against the treasure vault doors.

The three demon emperors rammed the gate dozens of times, each time making a creaking sound, but it remained completely unmoved.

After another impact that lasted for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the Soul-Devouring Demon Emperor became even more enraged. He threw aside the huge bronze pillar and slammed his demonic body against the gate with a leap.

The treasure vault doors made a humming sound, but remained firmly in place.

The Soul-Devouring Demon Emperor was furious.

One of his subordinates, a high-ranking demon saint, disguised himself as a judge in the underworld and brought countless demon crystals into the treasure vault. After infiltrating the vault, he sacrificed himself along with the vault's entrance, all to embed a trace of chaotic demonic energy into the treasure vault, which was born from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

If this treasure vault, which is full of pure spiritual energy and is completely integrated, is mixed with demonic energy that was originally repelled by spiritual energy, then the demons may have the opportunity to break down the door of this treasure vault.

Just now, when the three Demon Emperors rammed the treasure vault door, they also sensed several wisps of chaotic and violent demonic energy inside the door, disrupting the perfect closure of the treasure vault door.

But no matter how hard they pounded on it, the treasure vault door creaked and clicked, giving them hope, but it showed no sign of cracking or breaking open.

Seeing the Soul-Devouring Demon Emperor become enraged, the other two Demon Emperors also lowered the bronze pillars and went to his side. The Blood Moon Demon Emperor comforted him, saying:

"The Lingxiao Treasure Vault was originally born from the spiritual energy of the Heavenly Dao of the Three Realms Continent. If we were to break it so easily, that would be the strange thing."

The Demon Emperor of Overturning Heaven also chimed in with words of comfort: "The Lingxiao Treasure Vault is, after all, a product of this world. To open it without the Yama King's Seal is certainly not an easy task."

"Then what do you suggest we do now? My men have done as you said. The spiritual energy inside this treasure vault is mixed with demonic energy, but we still can't open it."

The Soul-Devouring Demon Emperor couldn't afford to get angry at the two demon emperors who were trying to comfort him, so he could only say something rather irritating.

"There's no better way now than to keep ramming it. Even if we only manage to create a tiny crack in the door, Yu Xiong will find a way to enter the treasure vault through that crack."

The Soul-Devouring Demon Emperor turned his head and glanced at the twenty or thirty demons behind him. Several of them had a mixture of demonic and monster energy, and their figures were erratic and uncertain.

"After all these years and so much effort, I've only managed to raise these two or three particularly vicious ones. If they can't be of any use at crucial moments, I'll devour them all."

After uttering a vicious remark, the Soul-Devouring Demon Emperor returned to the entrance of the treasure vault. Together with the two Demon Emperors following behind him, he once again lifted the massive bronze pillar covered in runes and began to ram the door with all his might.

Inside the City of Eternal Night, the various noises grew louder and louder as the search teams composed of humans and demons continued their all-out search of the entire city.

Occasionally, lone demons hiding in hiding would be discovered and immediately surrounded and killed.

There were also sinners and demons who committed unforgivable crimes among humans and demons, who could not hide in the mortal world and had to flee to the underworld. When they were found, the result was the same: they were killed on the spot by their own kind or demons.

The City of Eternal Night is the official residence of King Yama, and many high-ranking officials and noble ghosts from the underworld reside there. Their respective mansions contain countless treasures.

During the search, many human and demon cultivators took the opportunity to loot and steal from every mansion they searched, leaving almost all the treasures behind.

Never before has the entire City of Eternal Night been in such chaos; it's even more chaotic than when the rebels passed through.

Compared to the chaos in Eternal Night City, the Lingxiao Treasure Vault was unusually quiet because several Demon Emperors had placed an isolation array on it.

Perhaps the demon sacrifices that had previously infiltrated the treasure vault had taken effect, after the Soul Devouring Demon Emperor and his group took turns ramming into it for another half an hour.

Amidst the creaking and groaning, a soft crackling sound suddenly rang out.

As soon as the sound came out, the three demon emperors stopped immediately. The Blood Moon Demon Emperor hurriedly went to the front of the gate to observe carefully, his eyes almost touching the gate.

"It's done, it's done, there's a trace. Although it's only a tiny, faint trace, it's enough for Youxiong to infiltrate."

The Blood Moon Demon Emperor's voice rang out in ecstasy.

The other two Demon Emperors breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

The Soul-Devouring Demon Emperor had no time to rest and immediately turned to his subordinates, ordering, "Send those few fierce ones over here and see if they can sneak in."
