Chapter 1180 Siege and Killing
At the foot of the black mountains, inside a giant underground palace.

Bai Pu and his group followed the patrol team and sneaked into the main hall of the underground palace, avoiding a large number of patrolling demons along the way.

These are all evolved beings. Unlike the original inhabitants of the spirit world, evolved beings have a broader perspective and a wide variety of skills.

However, these demon race evolved beings were far less important than Feng Shenxiu, so they failed to see through the four people's disguise.

"I've already seen it."

Feng Shenxiu transformed the scene he saw into a luminous mirror, "reflecting" the structure inside the underground palace hall and the distribution of the demon race within it.

The underground palace hall was spacious, with two squads of demon guards inside. On the throne in the hall, one could see a demon marshal who was completely covered in massive stone armor, resembling a petrified giant.

Yanwei.

The "Rock Demons" of the demon race and the "Rock Clan" of the human race may look somewhat similar, but they are actually quite different.

Rock demons are originally made of stone. They develop intelligence based on a special spiritual object and cultivate a physical form. In essence, they are "demons".

The Rock Race are human in essence, but they possess an affinity for earth elements and even have some rock-like features on their skin. However, they are essentially "human".

Therefore, there is absolutely no ambiguity that the Rock Elves and the Rock Clan belong to their respective camps.

The only one whose existence is truly ambiguous is the dragon race to which Ashhorn belongs.

In fact, the dragon race to which Jinjiao belongs can be classified as either "human" or "demon," and there are valid reasons for both.

This is a small alien race independent of the human race and the demon race, but it has been incorporated into the human race, just like the sea race was incorporated into the demon race.

"There aren't many demons inside the hall. But once a fight breaks out, Demon Commander Yanwei will definitely send orders for the demon legions near the main camp to come and support us," Feng Shenxiu whispered.

Anmie said calmly, "My 'Absolute Darkness' technique can isolate the transmission of sound and thought, creating a shadow space. However, the intensity of our battle is quite high, and the shadow space won't last long."

"Just hold on for three minutes."

Feng Shenxiu was very confident, "Each of us has the strength to take on a level 17, third-grade domain lord (seventh level of true meaning) in one-on-one combat. If the four of us work together and are caught off guard, Yan Wei won't last three minutes."

Anmie nodded: "Let's confirm the battle plan one last time, then we'll go straight in. The two demon sentries at the entrance that I'm controlling can't keep up the charade for long."

……

Inside the hall, Demon General Yan Wei was listening to reports from his patrolling demon clan.

“Recently, Red Luo Star has been quite turbulent, with large-scale human attacks on mines occurring... These incidents all have one thing in common: the humans who made the attacks were almost all not at the Domain Lord level, but their strength was no less than that of ordinary Domain Lords, making them true geniuses.”

"Considering the intelligence gathered a few months ago, the human race territory conducted a talent recruitment drive... So these human geniuses who appeared are very likely members of the human race territory's current talent recruitment drive!"

"I can't just sit here at the base camp. Instead, I should find a few mines that might be attacked, lie in wait, and kill a few human geniuses. Killing even one would be worth the loss of ten mines."

Demon General Yan Wei stood up and said, "Send word to invite Demon Generals Zhenya and Leiji to come and take charge of the affairs of the main camp for me."

Two demon guards immediately took the order and went out.

However, just as the two demon guards were walking towards the door, they suddenly froze.

It was as if they had suddenly stepped into a quiet environment where all sounds had disappeared, including their own footsteps and their own heartbeats.

The two looked at each other in confusion and tried to speak, but found that they could only see each other's lip movements and could not hear any sound.

Even the transmission of thoughts through vibrations has lost its effectiveness.

A dark ripple, like the gaping maw of a monster devouring everything, silently appeared and swallowed the spacious underground palace hall whole.

No sound or signal could penetrate this black ripple and reach the outside world!

This is the true meaning of Annihilation, the true meaning of a true assassin.

—The overwhelming trend of darkness!
"what happened?"

Yanwei Demon General suddenly stood up, but he also noticed something was wrong. When he opened his mouth, his voice, which should have been booming like thunder, was inaudible even to himself.

"It's a human assassin... come to kill me!"

The moment Yanwei Demon General realized what was happening, he immediately activated his domain control.

A town-wide area, also black but shimmering with the light of obsidian, unfolded out.

—Obsidian Town, Grade 3 Town: Within the town's coverage area, all friendly units gain increased armor, while enemy movement speed is significantly reduced. When an enemy's movement speed is reduced to below 50%, a "Freeze" effect will be triggered, causing the enemy to freeze.

It's no wonder it's a third-grade town, possessing three distinct attributes.

One of the terms has a value of "significantly", which often means a 50% increase in its own advantageous attributes.

For example, Bai Pu's [All Things Are in Momentum] has many more attributes, including one that "significantly" increases the movement speed of all friendly units while reducing the movement speed of enemies. The value is 50% of Bai Pu's special attribute.

However, if the Myriad Phenomena are to advance further and be upgraded to the "Township" level, can it still retain the grade of First-Class True Meaning, and retain such a large number of entries and high values?
It all depends on the true meaning path Bai Pu took before breaking through to the Domain Lord level, and the extent to which he comprehended the true meaning of the chosen path.

The more constellations that govern the laws of the origin world, the deeper one's understanding of their true meaning.

The deeper the understanding of the true meaning, the higher the level of the town after the evolver breaks through, and the more powerful the number and quality of the entries will be.

When the Demon General Yanwei unleashed his domain, Anmie's overwhelming power of darkness was naturally suppressed.

Even though Jue An's power was only a weaker first-grade power, he was still facing a third-grade domain lord.

There is still a significant gap in priority determination.

However, Annihilation is not fighting alone.

During the confrontation between the powerful forces and the local authorities, the group of four had already stormed into the main hall of the underground palace!

Dragonman Jinjiao immediately unleashed "Dragon Power Might", Bai Pu also unleashed "Myriad Manifestations Might", and Feng Shenxiu also unleashed "Light Forging Might"!
The three weaker forces, along with the overwhelming force of Absolute Darkness, fought against the domain control of the Demon General Yanwei.

"Four human geniuses with the power of a first-rank master?"

Yanwei Demon General was taken aback, but after the initial surprise, he became even more excited.

If he can kill these four top-tier human geniuses here, he will surely gain immense prestige and merit within the demon race camp!
The key is that the Demon General Yanwei wasn't just daydreaming; he was confident. Although the four human geniuses all possessed the first-grade Grand Power, they hadn't practiced coordinating their Grand Powers, and their Grand Powers weren't systematic.

Even if the major forces unite, it will only raise the priority value by one or two points!

It would be extremely difficult for the four opponents to kill him quickly.

And if a stalemate occurs, and the time drags on...

The elite demons at the main camp are no pushovers!

At least Yanwei Demon Commander knew that every ten minutes, a patrol team of guards would come to the main camp to deliver orders.

In other words, within ten minutes at most, the elite demons at the main camp would discover the anomaly in the underground palace hall and then come to besiege these four audacious human geniuses!

When the time comes to surround and kill the four, the greatest credit will undoubtedly go to the Demon General Yanwei.

As for whether we can buy ten minutes...

The Rock Demon General was quite confident. His true form was a spirit stone, which developed sentience under the influence of a spirit core and eventually cultivated into a rock demon. His greatest strengths were defense and powerful, sweeping attacks!
Even if attacked by four domain lords of the same level, Yanwei Demon General was confident that he could hold out for an hour or two.

Now, are there four major powers?

It would be good enough if they could just hold on and not get counter-attacked!
As for geniuses... humph, who isn't a genius during a period of great power?
The Demon General Yanwei drew a purple crystal warhammer and slammed it into the ground.

The stone floor of the underground palace began to crack.

This place was originally located above underground magma, and after the stone slab ground was shattered, the scorching magma below could be seen.

The spiritual energy intensity in the main hall of this underground palace is around 15 points. In an environment rich in spiritual energy particles, the scorching magma is also quite powerful and can pose a threat to intermediate or even advanced evolvers.

As the Demon General Yanwei struck his amethyst warhammer, a strange ley line surged forth, causing the scorching magma below to boil and bubble upwards, as if springs were gushing forth.

The magma level kept rising! It quickly spread throughout the entire underground palace hall.

With only a few broken stone slabs for support, in a mere instant, the Demon General Yanwei transformed the stone floor of the underground palace hall into a floating island surrounded by lava.

This ability to alter the terrain on a large scale is precisely his signature skill – [Earth Vein Resonance]!
At the same time, several streams of pure lava energy shot out from the ground and poured onto the surface of the Rock Demon General, adding a layer of [Lava Armor] to his original obsidian shell!
The Demon General Yanwei opened his mouth silently.

Although his voice and thoughts couldn't be transmitted due to the restrictions of the overwhelming darkness, his arrogant actions still revealed his attitude without reservation.

Bring it on, you small fry!
While the Demon General Yanwei was changing the terrain, Bai Pu and his companions were not idle either. They tacitly did not directly attack the Demon General, but instead dealt with the two teams of demon guards in the underground palace hall.

Kill these guards first, lest they break out of the range of the Dark Force and call for reinforcements!

This is the enemy's headquarters. The four men carrying out the assassination mission must pay this price in time to clear the area.

This also allows the Demon General Yanwei to modify the battlefield terrain without any hindrance.

Now, he stands on the broken stone platform at the northernmost end of the hall.

Moreover, due to its rocky outer shell, the Rocky Demon General naturally possesses strong resistance to magma, and can withstand brief immersion in it without any problems. However, Bai Pu and his companions' attack was hampered by the broken stone slabs on the ground, resulting in very limited footholds.

"on!"

Bai Pu pulled his doomsday spear from the throat of the last hall guard. At this point, they had no reason to give up.

With a roar, Jinjiao was the first to charge forward.

His charge was completely different from that of ordinary warriors. His body was enveloped in powerful blood energy, and he leaped through the air at incredible speed, as if the space itself was shattering under his impact!
In the blink of an eye, Jinjiao rushed to the high platform on the north side. He swung his battle axe and chopped it into the front shoulder of Yanwei Demon General.

This axe strike, seemingly simple yet incredibly skillful, directly shattered the protective energy of the Rocky Demon General, leaving glaring cracks on the latter's lava armor.

Then, the shoulder armor of the Rocky Demon General exploded as if it had been planted with a large amount of explosives.

The profound meanings of Mountain Collapse and Power were perfectly fused into this strike from Emberhorn.

However, the Rocky Demon General felt no pain whatsoever after taking the attack. His lava armor was over a foot thick, and the attack from the Ash Horn was not even a scratch; it was merely an armor break.

As Emberhorn charged forward, he neither dodged nor evaded, but instead held his amethyst warhammer horizontally and smashed it into Emberhorn's waist.

Click!
The waist of the embers was slammed into an exaggerated curve, and the entire body was thrown to the right by the immense force of the Rocky Demon General.

The two giant black eyes of the Rocky Demon General flashed with two crystalline beams of light as it stared at the Ash Horn.

Click!

Half of Jinjiao's body was covered with a black sheen, and his movements suddenly became much slower.

[Petrifying Gaze]!
A beam of light shone on Jinjiao's body, and the black light was forced back by the white light. It was Feng Shenxiu who made his move, using the light of purification to try to cleanse Yanwei Demon General's control.

It should be noted that the priority judgment of Yanwei Demon General's [Obsidian Town] still has the upper hand. If the speed of Jinjiao is reduced to the critical value, it will inevitably trigger the "Condensation" judgment!
Emberhorn, the ninth star of the Power constellation, is undoubtedly a major fighting force.

If Jinjiao were turned into stone, then there would be no need to fight this battle—that was Feng Shenxiu's idea.

However, Feng Shenxiu's purifying light alone is not enough to cleanse the curse of petrifying gaze, but as a dragonman, Jinjiao also has powerful resistance and debuff removal skills.

Simultaneously, Jinjiao used his crowd control removal skill, cutting two bloody gashes on his skin. The boiling blood mist formed a mysterious dragon totem pattern.

With the combined effects of the purifying light and the dragon totem, the petrifying gaze was finally withstood.

During this process, Anmie and Bai Pu were not idle either.

Annihilation suddenly transformed into a gray mist, seeping into the shattered shoulder armor of the Rocky Demon General.

Clearly, they intend to repeat their old tricks, infiltrating the body of the Rocky Demon General and attacking from the spiritual and soul level!

But the Demon General Yanwei roared to the sky, and a torrent of blazing magma erupted forth with his roar! It also carried a gray shadow, which finally crashed to the ground in a sorry state; it was none other than the failed Annihilation.

"Damn it, this guy's mental resistance and darkness resistance are both incredibly high..." Annihilation transmitted a thought wave.

The ultimate strategy of "absolute darkness" only blocks the enemy's thoughts and feelings; it has no negative impact on one's own people.
