Chapter 539: Descent! Multicolored Light (I)
Cai’er looked upwards, her long hair fluttering. Behind her head, the Scythe of the God of Death made a slashing motion in the empty sky.
Suddenly, a sparkling gray radiance spread out and filled the sky like tears. As it abruptly turned dim, an extremely sinister killing intent enveloped the whole demon army.
Everywhere that gray radiance passed in the sky, a wide crack extended. In that black crack, black specks of light were produced, carrying a bitingly cold murderous intent.
At Cai’er’s back appeared a tall virtual silhouette, extending over hundreds of meters and carrying a similar gigantic scythe. From the looks of it, it seemed to be an enlarged version of Cai’er’s, only differing in its gray and illusory form.
The same leak of murderous spirit had entirely different effects on the Exorcist Mountain Pass. All the soldiers here only felt instant bursts of murderous spirit submerge into them, causing their killing intents to rise subliminally.
In their hearts, the war had become their most sacred mission, which gave them the energy to face any enemy.
Slaughter’s Realm, one of Cai’er’s God’s Descent techniques…
It’s effects were unrelated to her own cultivation, as its great ability came entirely from the God’s Descent. Of course, due to Cai’er’s insufficient cultivation, it was impossible to extend Slaughter’s Realm to too great a scale. But in the current focus on close quarters battles, maintaining this ability was enough to provide support to the Exorcist Mountain Pass.
Slaughter’s Realm greatly reduced the enemies’ momentum due to the terrifying murderous spirit spreading in their ranks. Fear started to rise inside the demons, greatly lowering their fighting strength, while the allies’ murderous spirit had a global upgrade.
The rise of their murderous spirit enabled them to wield 120 percent of their normal strength, while becoming unaffected by any external influence.
This was the first time Cai’er had attempted to use this realm. She couldn’t maintain it for too long a time, and hadn’t used it for real until now, due to lacking self-confidence. Before her loss of memories, this would never have happened. But Long Haochen’s return not only brought her joy, but also gave the allies someone to rely on. After that stability was gained, her self confidence was boosted, and she managed to unleash the power from her god’s descent.
Due to the influence from Slaughter’s Realm, the soldiers from the Exorcist Mountain Pass immediately gained in momentum, and the rushing demons were forced to back down. In their eyes, the six distant demon god pillars only worked as lamps, and didn’t affect their morale anymore. In contrast, from the effects of Slaughter’s Realm, the demon’s offense abruptly slowed down, causing them to show sluggish reactions.
The lower one’s cultivation, the greater the effects of this realm, and naturally, the power of a god’s chosen one perfectly matching with their associated divine tool was not something powerhouses at the same cultivation level could compare to, not to mention lower levels.
Cai’er’s God’s Descent alone gave a new boost to their suppressed armies, but on the other side, Long Haochen had yet to show movement.
His spiritual energy had yet to finish pouring out, and Star King’s Star Domain was also still ongoing. Any absorbed light essence would be supplied to Long Haochen, and like that, the amount of Long Haochen’s spiritual highlandized spiritual energy that had poured into the shield became close to 100,000. His pouring speed had yet to show traces of slowing down.
What about Long Haochen’s summed up strength? He’s a god’s chosen one, who benefitted from the effects of Sacred Rain, making his light affinity even greater. Therefore, all the light element present here would be incomparably attracted to him. The powerful piece of equipment of epic tier called Golden Foundation Armor gave him a powerful boost as well, and he had Star King’s domain which could compare to a forbidden spell.
Even though Long Haochen’s cultivation couldn’t rise to a phenomenal level in such a short span of time, his fighting strength made qualitative leaps. And this whole fighting strength, in Spiritual Highland mode, was supplied to his Divine Snail Shield of Sun and Moon.
Having been with this shield for a long time already, Long Haochen could sense that every time he used it, the level of accord between them would rise a bit. All along, he could feel that his control over it was growing.
At the very moment, although he still had yet to activate the Divine Snail Shield, he faintly sensed that it was accumulating power, and could now erupt at any moment. This eruption required him to provide an uninterrupted supply of this Spiritual Highland energy. Long Haochen’s gaze was aimed towards the horizon, where the sunlight was gradually rising. Dawn was close to its end, and the sunlight was about to spill around the earth. Could the Divine Snail of Sun and Moon really awaken in time?
In reality, Long Haochen’s estimate of the Divine Snail Shield’s ability was accurate. The chant of the Divine Snail Shield of Sun and Moon was actually a message to tell him that to unleash the most of the Divine Snail Shield’s power, it had to be used at dawn or dusk. But Long Haochen’s current cultivation was still too low for that, far too low. Therefore, no matter how hard he tried, and how much help Star King gave, he still didn’t manage to accomplish that before dawn passed.
The six great demon gods were still floating behind, wrapped inside their own demon god pillars, and the Emo Demon God Sytry coldly gazed at the distant fortress, showing the same expression, but secretly startled.
The powerful murderous spirit Cai’er generated produced some panic deep inside her. With Cai’ers level of cultivation, Sytry could naturally tell that this was a God’s Descent technique, borrowing from the power of a god to attain such a formidable might. But until this day, the Exorcist Mountain Pass had never showed such a scene.
“Vine, is that the human you attempted to assassinate alongside Allocer?” Sytry pointed Cai’er out to the nearby Invisible Demon God.
Vine nodded to her, “That’s her. But her strength just seems… a lot greater.”
Sytry let out a snort, “That’s not her strength, but the strength she borrows from a god. A god’s chosen one. It looks like she’s probably that human girl our crown prince mentioned. So the Assassin Temple was the place where she had escaped to.”
Vine continued in a grave tone, “That one is the knight that came so suddenly that day, blocking Allocer’s path of return and blocking my attacks. I see him as an even more dangerous opponent. If not for him, Allocer wouldn’t have died. What is he planning this time?”
Sytry narrowed her eyes, “No matter what he is planning, today will be the day of his death. Allocer and Seere will be buried alongside him. He’s also the source of the forbidden spell of that day, but don’t you find it strange? Despite this human’s cultivation having yet to reach their so-called ninth step’, it still means he was reaching at least 100,000? How come he managed to use a forbidden spell?”
Vine replied, “This human may have some special equipment. He’s wearing a Golden Foundation Armor belonging to the Knight Temple. The boost provided by this armor is very great, and the shield he used that day against me was extremely tough as well. If not for that, there’s no way he could have stopped many attacks from me.”
Sytry coldly remarked, “So these humans believe that they are the only ones that can use forbidden spells? You guys provide cover for me, I will show them our demon race’s true strength.”
While saying that, Sytry’s body slowly rose higher, as the other five demon gods gathered alongside her. The six demon god pillars gathered in the shape of a blossoming flower, with the other five demon gods outside, surrounding and protecting the Emo Demon God Sytry.
Sytry slowly raised her hands, and her demon god pillar abruptly burst out with gaudy pink light.
Seeing this pink brilliance gave a sweet and sentimental feeling, as if someone were to snatch something from your heart. This itching feeling was hardly bearable.
Sytry was clad in a long pink skirt, and her pink hair and eyes, as well as her fiery figure, were extremely enticing.
Softly chanting, she started to release pink circles of light.
Now, as the twelfth ranked demon god, one could see how powerful she was. Her incantation had just started, yet the power of her forbidden spell was already visible.
The purple circles that were coming out from her body condensed gradually in the sky, forming a gigantic figure which was tenfold taller than the one behind Cai’er. As the purple halation was increasing, this figure’s shape became clearer and clearer.
Shockingly, this figure belonged to the Emo Demon God herself, an infinitely larger version of Sytry. Her charm was entirely replicated by this gigantic figure, and was growing even further. Even the six demon god pillars’ brilliance started to look fainter because of this figure.
At this sight, even Cai’er’s Slaughter’s Realm started to lose in efficacy. The human soldiers all started to feel some panic, for this figure was really far too large, to the extent that to avoid looking at it was already impossible.
Sytry’s beauty had a boundless charm, causing anyone to be lost in wild and fanciful thoughts: this perfect figure caused all men to have fantasies.
The long pink skirt forming the little clothing she had on was lightly swaying. As her figure became clearer, the human soldiers’ breathing clearly became more frenetic.
The humans started to be lost in their most primitive desires, and the weapons in their hands lost speed. The originally completely suppressed demons rose up immediately, and the battles around the fortress became extremely desperate.
