Chapter 664 - Abyssal Demon Lord

Swoosh!

Borgans followed the Black-Horned Demon like her shadow and pounced at her again. He used one move after another without following any rhythm. His power was quite terrifying, and his speed was sometimes quick and sometimes slow. When his speed was slow, he would control light objects as if they were heavy, and he seemed like a volcano on the verge of eruption. But when he moved swiftly, he seemed like a light beam and was as swift as lightning. At that time, it was difficult to follow him. He was untraceable, like the Black-Horned Demon’s Shadowless Whip.

He managed to corner the Black-Horned Demon with only several moves, and she was forced to fight him with her whole power. “Heavy Earth Sword… Algernon Divine Branch’s Heavy Earth Sword. It’s pretty good. One day, I will definitely make your Algernon Divine Branch pay a grave price for your foolish actions today.” The Black-Horned Demon dodged Borgans’s heavy sword before looking at the wanderers, who rushed into the hall, and at Borgans, who didn’t want to give up on her. The Black-Horned Demon Natalie couldn’t help but gnash her teeth. After a tiger left its home, it was bullied even by dogs!

If she were at her peak state, she would have torn these people to shreds long ago. But she had sustained deadly injuries and had managed to wake up only with great difficulty after innumerable years. She didn’t expect that she would suffer the joint attacks of wanderers right after she opened her eyes, and she was so infuriated that she almost went crazy. She was angered, and she waved her hand to send a Magical Message before she let out a whistle that reached the skies. Her message spread far away and summoned the Abyssal Demon Lord, who was still in secluded training.

“It’s awful. Rush at her together. Let’s kill her quickly.” The white-robed Steve let out a shout and braced himself to rush over. He joined the attackers’ ranks with his whole power.

A giant palm appeared suddenly in the air, and it seemed like a little mountain that would crush the Black-Horned Demon.

At first, he harbored ulterior motives and planned to hold back his power in the fight, but after he saw the Black-Horned Demon send an urgent reinforcement summon, he was startled and found himself forced to attack with full power. He didn’t hesitate any longer and joined hands with the others to kill the Black-Horned Demon. Even if he couldn’t get the Life Soul Bead, he would still get a large number of Moon Soul Stones. But if he waited for the arrival of the Black-Horned Demon’s reinforcement, he wouldn’t just fail to get anything. It would be difficult for him to even escape unscathed.

Sizzle!

The Black-Horned Demon’s body moved out of the way and dodged Steve’s Giant Spirit Divine Palm. Soon after, she swiftly waved her whip, and a sizzling noise echoed out. It seemed like she wanted to lacerate Steve’s flesh and destroy his Godhead. However, a surprising matter occurred just when she was about to succeed.

Buzz!

An ear-piercing tearing noise echoed out from the air, and a cold light beam instantly appeared in front of her. It was swifter than Borgans’s Earth Heavy Sword.

“The God-Slaughtering Arrow. You are a damned b*stard.” The Black-Horned Demon Natalie’s pupils contracted, and she moved back quickly in alarm. She responded quickly, but she was still a little late. The sharp God-Slaughtering Arrows penetrated her chest and gave rise to a rain of blood.

For a long while, the old man in luxurious clothes from Longbarton Divine Branch made ample preparations, and he finally attacked at this critical juncture.

The old man had only the Fifth Level Divine Duty Stage’s power. He wouldn’t pose any threat to the Black-Horned Demon. But the Master Divine Weapon, the God-Slaughtering Arrow, in his hand was no small matter. It was very swift, and even the powerful Black-Horned Demon would be injured by it if she was caught off-guard. Her blood-red armor wasn’t of any use against the sharp God-Slaughtering Arrow.

Borgans quickly pounced at the injured Black-Horned Demon and rained attacks upon her. “Hand over the Life Soul Bead or die.”

Steve and the Three Ghost Servants cooperated with him. He attacked without defending and waved his sharp sword around. Each attack was stronger than the last, and he forced the Black-Horned Demon to repeatedly move back.

Buzz!

An ear-piercing sound that resembled the Death God’s summon echoed out in the air again, and the sharp God-Slaughtering Arrow brushed past the Black-Horned Demon’s ear. She was scared by this, and her body broke into a cold sweat. Soon after, she got out of the way to dodge Steve’s Giant Spirit Divine Palm, and she found herself forced to retreat again, and she couldn’t help but raise her hand again to send an urgent Magical Message.

“Hurry up! Charge at her together. Kill her. Hurry up!”

“Giant Spirit Divine Palm! Die!”

Borgans did everything in one go and relentlessly attacked the target along with the Four Great Divine Branches’ elites. Every attack was stronger than the last. They didn’t leave the injured Black-Horned Demon any time to take a breather. They tried to kill the Black-Horned Demon before the arrival of the reinforcement army, and they hoped to quickly get the Life Soul Bead and escape far away before any unexpected incidents occurred.

The Black-Horned Demon’s great power could be easily imagined because she managed to survive the tragic Ancient Gods and Devils’ war, but it was a pity that she didn’t retain even a third of her power after her awakening and that she faced Borgans, who was a peerless expert who was close to becoming a Divine Lord. She also faced Longbarton Divine Branch’s ominous God-Slaughtering Arrows, as well as the strong attacks of three Ghost Servants, Steve, and other experts. She was shortly drenched in blood and became riddled with scars.

The Black-Horned Demon’s injuries only got more serious, but Borgans, Steve, and others suffered her counterattack and didn’t fare any better. Borgans’s chest was badly managed, and a large amount of blood gushed out of his wounds. The Ghost Servants’ leader lost an eye, and the white-robed Steve lost his left hand. The old man in luxurious clothes from Longbarton Divine Branch, who was hiding in the surroundings and shooting arrows, lost an ear, and the three guards at the Divine Duty Stage with him were killed on the spot. Even the old man’s Godhead was almost shattered by the Black-Horned Demon’s Shadowless Whip. A tragic battle!

An intense and tragic battle broke out between both sides. Meanwhile, the wanderers, who entered the Demon Hall, got caught in a battle against numerous High-Level Flying Demons. Corpses covered the ground, and there were rivers of blood. After the wanderers saw the altar, which was built with Moon Soul Stones, their eyes turned bloodshot, and they started fighting crazily against the Flying Demons who blocked their path.

Several great factions’ elites were fighting intensely against the Black-Horned Demon, and the Demon Hall descended into a mess. When the Corpse Wizard King saw this, he discerned that no one was paying attention to their team, so he raised a suggestion in a low voice. He was restless! “Lord, why don’t we take advantage of this to snatch the Life Soul Bead on the altar?”

When Yang Ling detected that the Life Soul Bead’s Energy Ripples had turned more distinct and amiable, he got quite excited, but when he looked at the peculiar green flame on the altar, he forced himself to calm down. He muttered to himself for a moment before waving his hand and sending several Horned Bee Beasts to sneak over to the altar. He wanted to probe and see what the altar really was! “The green flame on the altar is anything but simple. Let’s wait for another while, and let’s not carry out this task rashly.”

Swoosh!

The small and swift Horned Bee Beasts used the darkness’s cover to smoothly approach the altar. However, as they were about to fly toward it, a scary sight appeared. The green flames on the altar turned more intense, and they instantly burned the few Horned Bee Beasts into ashes. They didn’t leave anything of the Horned Bee Beasts behind, and their souls turned into wisps of black smoke that were devoured by the Life Soul Bead.

“Oh my God. What kind of flame is this?” When the Corpse Wizard King, Ophelia, and others witnessed this terrifying sight, they turned pale with fright, and this was the case even for Yang Ling. He rejoiced that he hadn’t rashly intervened. If he had gone over there rashly, he wouldn’t have gotten the Life Soul Bead, and he would have been burned to ashes.

When Borgans discerned that the Black-Horned Demon’s body, which was struck by an arrow, was on the verge of collapse, he let out a shout and gritted his teeth. “Earth Fatal Blow. Die!” He flew forward to face the enemy head-on, and he strongly thrust his sword into the Black-Horned Demon’s blood-red battle armor.

“Ah!” The Black-Horned Demon struck the hateful Borgans with her whip before covering her chest with one hand and moving back several steps. She couldn’t help but let out a miserable cry. She couldn’t persist any longer and fell heavily on the ground with a rumble. Her heart was penetrated, and blood gushed out of it. Her Godhead, which still hadn’t recovered, was heavily damaged again and was almost destroyed. She was near death’s door!

Borgans, who took a whip’s strike head-on, finally managed to knock down the Black-Horned Demon.

Yang Ling looked at the heavily injured Black-Horned Demon, who lay on the ground. After pondering this, he came up with a daring and crazy idea. “Wouldn’t taming the dying Black-Horned Demon be better than taming several hundred High-Level Divine Beasts?”

The Black-Horned Demon didn’t have even a third of her power left, yet she had still persisted for so long in the face of numerous Divine Duty Experts’ attacks, and both sides had sustained injuries. If her power recovered to its peak state, wouldn’t she be even more amazing? She probably wouldn’t be any worse than the Golden Roc in the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension, who would awaken shortly, and she might even be stronger by a tad.

There was no time to waste, and Yang Ling ordered the others before weaving Wizard Seals. “Stay here and wait for me. Don’t show yourselves.” As a “swooshing” sound echoed out, he teleported and called over a group of different Flying Demons summoned by the Corpse Wizard King. He used them to confuse the crowd before moving the dying Black-Horned Demon into the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension and decisively teleporting away. He had done everything in one go and was as swift as lightning.

When Borgans, Steve, and others killed the large group of weird flying demons, they discovered that the Black-Horned Demon on the ground had long since disappeared.

“Huh? Invisibility Spell?” Borgans furrowed his brows and quickly cast a Detection Spell, but he didn’t find anything, and he instantly lost track of the Black-Horned Demon’s aura. When he was about to scout a larger distance, the Ghost Servant in the vicinity swiftly rushed toward the altar.

“Hahaha, Life Soul Bead. This is my Life Soul Bead.” The Ghost Servant who lost an eye laughed loudly and rushed toward the Life Soul Bead with two other Ghost Servants. He wanted to take advantage of this chance to take the bead and escape far away, but the green flames on the altar turned more intense and engulfed the Ghost Servants’ leader, who was so pleased that he had lost his sense of caution.

“Ah!” The Ghost Servant’s body caught fire, and he let out a miserable scream. He started rolling around on the floor, and he cried loudly. He quickly burned into ashes before the crowd. He was a Ghost Servant engulfed by green flames, so he assumed that he had an immunity to the green flames on the altar, but he was gravely mistaken, and his outcome wasn’t any different than the few Horned Bee Beasts’.

“Humph, what a reckless thing!” Borgans looked at the Life Soul Bead on the altar. He was afraid that more incidents would occur and didn’t bother looking for the Black-Horned Demon’s whereabouts. He had come prepared. He took out a special fishnet from his spatial ring and was about to throw the net over the Life Soul Bead on the altar and pull it over, but a surprising matter occurred.

A deafening roar sounded through the air, and the gloomy sky turned as red as the Black-Horned Demon’s scarlet armor, as if it were dyed with blood. This sight was accompanied by a peerless wave of pressure. A large face engulfed by flames appeared suddenly and strangely in the air above the main hall.

The Abyssal Demon Lord, who commanded millions of Abyssal Demons, suddenly appeared in front of the crowd.
