The news of the Devil Army breaching the Gorge of Two Worlds didn't reach the Great Yin Imperial Court until the next afternoon. A total of three Gorges of Two Worlds were breached, and 100,000 troops stationed there were lost in a single night. The three Holy Master generals were declared missing in action.
By the time the Devil Army was discovered, at least ten cities and their surrounding areas were overtaken by Devils, while nearly millions of people were sacrificed to form the Gate of Blood and Flesh.
Luckily, the three major sects immediately sent out Devil Termination Decrees to gather powerful cultivators and assassinate Devil Generals within the Devil Army, finally creating some breathing room for the imperial court.
