Boom!
Over two hundred huge beams of light, at least five meters wide, collided fiercely with the demons charging over.
In the air, Long Haochen smiled after fusing with thirteen balls of white light, “What resplendent fireworks…”
Yeah! What a beautiful scene of resplendent fireworks.
The demons were unable to dodge the sudden, collective attack at all. No matter how fast they were, could they outspeed light? As a result, all of them defended out of instinct.
As they charged, the powerhouses of the eighth step flew at the front, while the eighty groups formed from the three clans flew at the back.
It was a dazzling eruption when the barrage from the magic cannons collided against the defences of the demons!
Countless colours erupted in the air. A huge pall of light had even condensed in the air as terrifying elemental storms wreaked havoc within it.
A large number of demon powerhouses were knocked away. These were all demons with defences powerful enough to block the attack and not be blasted to pieces, while the weaker demons, or the ones located in the centre of the barrage, were not as fortunate.
From afar looking at the entire Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass, it seemed like the walls had fired a blast against a group of mosquitos.
Roar! The Demon God Emperor was truly infuriated now. The dark golden dragon on the top of the Devil Dragon Pillar flew up and unleashed a dark golden breath towards the battlefield. It actually arrived immediately, despite being released from over five kilometers away. The intense, golden colour collided with the elemental storms, actually forcefully scattering the storms.
Without a doubt, the attacks from the magic cannons were most powerful when they first erupted and had managed to forcefully halt the demon’s invincible charge.
At least a quarter of the eighth step demons in the charge died to the terrifying blast, while more than half of them were injured.
Out of all the magic cannons, some streaks of light were the most violent. The strongest one was a deathly grey. Not only did it kill seven or eight demons of the eighth step, it landed on a Devil Dragon in the end as well. The terrifying defences of the Devil Dragon and the Moon Demon and Star Demon on its back actually failed to block the attack. The Devil Dragon was heavily injured, while the Moon Demon and Star Demon actually died. The grey aura was actually the power of death.
To be able to produce such a powerful attack, the magic crystal providing energy was obviously extraordinary. More correctly, it was the Demon God of Death Samigina’s demon god crown.
The reason why the four Fiend Kings fought over the right to succeed the Demon God of Death was because the demon god crown had not been left behind, while with their cultivation and status among the Fiends, they could forcefully inherit the position as demon god as long as they were widely recognised. What they never expected was that Samigina’s demon god crown would become the fuel to the Temple Union’s magic cannons.
The other powerful magic cannons were also powered by demon god crowns, while the dark element attacks were powered by magic crystals from demons.
Both Long Haochen and the higher-ups of the Temple Union understood that the humans would never be the demons’ opponent in an open battle, so of course they had to use some special methods to deal with the Demon God Emperor. With any information about the magic cannons locked down, the combined attack from the cannons immediately dealt a heavy blow to the powerhouses the Demon God Emperor had brought with him.
Although this was not enough to shake the foundations of the demons, it formed a great deterrence at the very least and obliterated their morale.
The elementals storms subsided and the demons regrouped. They did not charge again like before. Many of the demons were surprised. The humans really were prepared with over two hundred magic cannons.
The Demon God Emperor’s fury reached his limit. He glanced at the purple moon in the air and with a flash, he appeared from the Devil Dragon Pillar.
“Agares, you need to give me an explanation once the battle ends,” Fengxiu’s voice exploded in the Moon Demon God Agares’ ears, but no one else heard it.
In this crucial battle, the Moon Demons composed a third of their total strength. Now definitely was not the time for him to blame Agares. Completely obliterating the defences of the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass was the matter at hand.
The magic cannons of the mountain pass began their recharge. With ninth step magic crystals supporting them, they obviously did not just have a single round of fire. Perhaps their usage would not be as great as at the start, but at least they could strike fear into the demons on the battlefield.
However, Fengxiu did not give them the chance for a second blast. In the air, he only took a single step and in the next moment, he had passed all the demon powerhouses, arriving at the very front. The huge, dark golden dragon continued to roar in the distance, while Fengxiu’s eyes lit up with the same dazzling, dark golden light as well.
His black hair turned into a round disc behind him like a sun, while Fengxiu’s eyes flickered with dark golden light. His luxurious robes swayed despite the absence of wind. When he appeared before all of the demons, he seemed so silent. Even the sky fell silent.
In the moment Fengxiu had moved, Long Haochen moved as well.
His huge, snow-white wings from the Armour of Eternity unfurled and in the next moment, he appeared five hundred meters away from Fengxiu.
They stared at each other. The leader of humanity and the leader of the demons were staring at each other. Long Haochen had basically been suppressed instantly by Fengxiu’s aura.
Only when he truly faced the angered Demon God Emperor could he sense just how great the pressure was. In that moment, Long Haochen felt Fengxiu was like the ocean, boundless and unfathomable.
However, he was obviously reluctant to just be suppressed like this. The gemstone on Long Haochen’s chest shone with a green light as the clear sound of a heartbeat rang out. Immediately, Long Haochen’s aura erupted as a green colour filled with the aura of life expanded, clashing with the Demon God Emperor’s dark golden aura.
“You can’t stop me,” the Demon God Emperor said coldly. Afterwards, he raised his right hand towards Long Haochen and extended his index finger.
Long Haochen’s Heart of Eternity suddenly skipped a beat when he saw that. Back in the Star Demon Pagoda, that was how the Demon God Emperor had killed him! He had destroyed his heart.
However, he only remained dazed for a split second. Long Haochen raised the Sword of Eternity high over his head and swung it at the Demon God Emperor from afar. The Domain of Eternity and Light God Domain merged together, emitting a ring of green light. At the same time, he vanished in the green light.
Nature’s Bloom.
The tip of the Demon God Emperor’s finger lit up as a fist-sized ball of dark golden light. However, there was a deafening dragon’s roar in the light, as if a huge dragon was sealed within the tiny ball of light.
Raaaaah!
A terrifying sound wave erupted from the Demon God Emperor’s finger in the next moment. The huge dragon in the distance stood in the posture of a roar, but its roar was clearly emitted from the ball of light.
Long Haochen’s Nature’s Bloom was like a blown-up, green bubble in the terrifying sound wave. When the bubble reached its limit, it suddenly burst.
The sound wave continued towards the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass, while Long Haochen swung his sword at the Demon God Emperor, reluctant to just fall like that. The resplendent, white sword also produced a gentle thrum. It was exactly due to this strange thrum that protected Long Haochen from the roar.
The translucent, white colour from the Sword of Eternity seemed so bright and clear, but the sword did not release any attack. It seemed no different from a simple swing, as if it was the same as a slash from an ordinary warrior of the second or third step.
However, the simple, unadorned sword made the Demon God Emperor react.
He immediately drew back his extended finger and formed a fist, punching at Long Haochen’s slash.
Clang! The collision of the fist and sword actually produced a metallic sound. Long Haochen’s entire body shuddered as a layer of white light expanded from his body, while the Demon God Emperor immediately retreated to a hundred meters away.
Aside from that, not even a single drop of spiritual energy managed to escape from where they clashed.
The human powerhouses from the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass had already begun holding their breaths. They knew very well that it was critical that Long Haochen stopped the Demon God Emperor. If Long Haochen was defeated, then the humans would no longer possess the power to contend against the Demon God Emperor. No matter how prepared they were, the end result would still be the same.
The humans were not the only ones to react as such. There were also people among the demons who had their hearts skip a beat nervously when Long Haochen and the Demon God Emperor clashed this time, because it was just as important to them as to whether Long Haochen could stop the Demon God Emperor or not.
The Demon God Emperor swept up the hem of his robes. There was actually a cut of a few centimeters. His fist had actually failed to block Long Haochen’s sword completely.
And, a thin, bloody mark had appeared on the back of his right hand. The mark slowly closed up.
Nodding towards Long Haochen, the Demon God Emperor smiled, “Your growth rate really is surprising. The true essence of the Self Incarnating Domain combined with a strike that contains a domain technique. Very impressive. You are worthy of my praise. There are no more than five people among my race who can receive that attack and emerge alive. No wonder you have such confidence in challenging me. However, your magic cannons might have all malfunctioned.”
He was right. All of the magic cannons storing up energy before had dimmed. Long Haochen did not need to look back. He could sense what had happened using his powerful mental force.
