Chapter 798: A God-slaying Strike (III) (1/2)

The dark pillar shone with an inky green light. The strangest thing about it was that as it shone, it rapidly lengthened, like a tree that was growing desperately. After just a short while, the pillar had exceeded a hundred meters. Branch-like objects began to grow from the pillar. It seemed just like a huge ent.

An inky-green figure also rose into the air and appeared in the sky. It immediately shone with a dense, green colour which enveloped towards the Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation.

A domain.

Without a doubt, the figure that had suddenly appeared was the current commander of the demon base, the Tree Demon God who ranked twenty out of the seventy-two demon gods, Purson.

Since he could make the top twenty, he would definitely be a domain wielding powerhouse. And, this Tree Demon God’s fusion with his Demon God Pillar could be described as one of the best out of all the demon gods.

Purson was surprised when the base was suddenly attacked. As soon as he emerged from his tent, he sensed the terrifying pressure from the Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation.

He had experienced this pressure recently, which shocked him greatly at that time. Afterwards, he immediately passed this news onto Modu. Before long, Modu had ordered the other two demon gods who were stationed outside the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass with him to return.

There was no news from Modu so far, but he could sense the humans were growing restless, and his majesty would definitely respond to it. However, he had never thought the war would begin so soon, and it would be the humans who would initiate it.

Looking at the huge divine throne in the sky, the Tree Demon God’s scalp tingle, because he had absolutely no idea just how powerful the divine throne was. And, in his understanding, this divine throne had never appeared before. The demons did not have any detailed records of it, apart from the fact that the humans had never used this Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation before!

However, as the commander, he still unleashed his Demon God Pillar as soon as possible after passing down a few quick commands. He also rose into the air and attacked Long Haochen. He needed to stop the pressure from the Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation, or the demon army’s battle prowess would decrease drastically. The divine throne’s presence was equivalent to a wide range debuff!

Long Haochen hovered in the air, but he did not direct his attention towards Purson. He did not have to deal with the demon god that ranked twentieth.

Cai’er had already followed Shu Yongxiao to the edge of the demons a long time ago. As soon as Lin Xin’s attack had begun, Shu Yongxiao made a gesture to her, before silently infiltrating the base of the demons like a wisp of smoke.

Cai’er quickly followed Shu Yongxiao. She was very confident in her speed. She stuck closely behind this predecessor, just like her shadow. She would charge when Shu Yongxiao charged, and she would dodge when Shu Yongxiao dodged.

Very soon, all of the Flaming Meteors in the air had fallen and the demon camp had been alarmed. Large numbers of demons began to pour out from the tents. Some of the fiend and hell demon mages began to fight back. The armies that could fly also took off to enter the battle.

Shu Yongxiao’s advance did not slow down at all because of the appearance of these enemies. Instead, she moved even faster. Cai’er could vaguely see two straight daggers appear in Shu Yongxiao’s hands. They were like a pair of venomous snakes in her hands. Wherever she passed by, all the demons she brushed past would immediately freeze up. They would only collapse onto the ground when they were very far away.

Cai’er discovered that Shu Yongxiao’s attacks were extremely simple and straightforward. What made her admire the most was that when Shu Yongxiao attacked, there was no ripple of spiritual energy at all.

The daggers constantly moved around like black bolts of lightning. Whenever she attacked, she would never miss, and the location would be the same. Out of all the demons she passed by, everyone single one of them would gain a hole on their forehead, such that their brains were directly penetrated. Shu Yongxiao was just too confident in her attacks, such that she had had already brushed past her opponents before she could take their spiritual energy into account. The only way to destroy the killing process was skillful.

Cai’er followed behind her and paid close attention to her actions. Gradually, she discovered an interesting aspect. Shu Yongxiao’s seemingly rapid movements and attacks actually seemed to follow a special rhythm. Cai’er was unable to tell what this rhythm was, but it was like the constant thumping of drums. The drums would not be loud, but they seemed like they were accumulating something.

That was all Cai’er could sense. She was basically the strongest assassin of the Assassin Temple besides the Eternal Heroes, but after seeing how skilled Shu Yongxiao was, she could not help but feel inferior. Compared to this predecessor, just their level of skill existed a huge difference. In just a short while, over two hundred demons had lost their lives when Shu Yongxiao slipped past them.

Just what was she building up through this strange rhythm? It definitely wasn’t the power of her domain!

Just when Cai’er found this to be extremely strange, the Tree Demon God Purson appeared in the sky and unleashed green light towards Long Haochen.

It was also in that next moment that Cai’er finally understood what kind of power Shu Yongxiao was building up.
