Douluo Dalu: Seven Kills

Chapter 650 Five Paths to Hunt Demons (Part 2)

"Ah—" ×N
"Who will save us!"

"Roar--"

Amidst piercing cries for help and brutal roars, the inky blackness of night was forcibly torn apart, revealing a huge, crimson moon, seemingly stained with blood, hanging in the sky. Whether it was a halo of light or blood, it permeated every inch of the land and every brick and stone.

The magnificent city that was supposed to withstand the beast tides of the far north is now shattered like glass, with only broken walls and collapsed gates remaining, vaguely showing the devastation of the impending catastrophe.

Inside and outside the city walls, corpses piled up in layers, forming mounds of flesh that exuded a stench and the aura of death. Countless severed limbs and internal organs were scattered wantonly on the cold stone slabs, and thick blood gathered into dark streams that slowly crawled through the streets and alleys, silently devouring the remaining traces of life.

The city was deathly silent, with only the mournful wind howling through it. Terrifying shadowy figures moved across the broken walls, leaving nothing but desolation in their wake, as not a single survivor was left.

"Demon Legion! Continue the advance!"

Resembling Alba, the demon lord named "Blackie" roared from a high place, his eyes flashing with the excitement of slaughter.

"Hoohoho-"

After his roar, all the demons, including the corrupted Soul Masters, responded with bursts of excitement.

But just then, "Huh, what's that?"

The demon lord, Wu Jie, suddenly sensed something strange. Looking up at the sky, he saw several shooting stars streaking across the heavens, their light gleaming. These shooting stars grew larger and brighter, seemingly heading straight for them.

"Tell me, what exactly is that thing?!"

Looking at those shooting stars, an inexplicable sense of trepidation and unease immediately rose in his heart.

Driven by an ominous premonition, the cautious man didn't hesitate for a moment, grabbing the Title Douluo evil soul master who had opened the Demon Gate and questioning him. Upon seeing him, the evil soul master's eyes widened immediately, and his voice even trembled instinctively.

"Your Majesty! That's a level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell!"

"Roar!"

With a roar, Wu Jie, though unaware of the nature of this "Level 9 Fixed-Position Soul-Guided Cannonball," sensed the fear in the messenger's voice. Immediately, swarms of flying demons soared into the sky, heading towards the descending starlight.

Such an action would undoubtedly be suicidal. And Wu Jie did this, naturally, to avoid putting himself in danger.

In an instant, seven level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells emitted a dazzling light. Under the attack of the flying demons, they exploded instantly! "Boom boom boom boom—" The moment they exploded, the originally pitch-black night suddenly turned into daylight.

The flying demons were powerless to resist and vanished in an instant. Then, centered on the aerial explosion, the demon legions above, below, and all around were devoured by the vast swathes of light, like wheat being harvested. It seemed that no matter how the demon legions resisted, it was meaningless. Any race of demons was as fragile as rag dolls before a level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannonball, especially one with the attribute of light.

In an instant, the darkness on the earth seemed to be dispelled.

Even the surviving demonic creatures, purified by the light-attribute energy, let out hysterical roars.

"Do not--"

The boil is furious!

Realizing that the five level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells had exploded, the demon lord suddenly raised a halberd in his hand, and the halberd blade swept across the air, instantly unleashing a large amount of dark lightning, which turned into a sea of ​​lightning to meet the remaining rain of light.

Meanwhile, his nine great demons all brandished their weapons, converging into a torrent that surged into the sky.

However, after this terrifying baptism, the demon army, which was so powerful just moments before, was now in ruins.

However, the Demon Lord Wu Jie himself, along with the nine Great Demons accompanying him, were not in too bad a state. Although everyone was injured, they were only slightly wounded and recovered quickly.

"How could humans possess such terrifying weapons!?"

The boil roared, filled with a deep fear.

terrible!

Everything was going smoothly just moments ago, with cities being slaughtered one after another. But what happened? The moment the humans retaliated, before he even saw them, his own men were torn to shreds, and his powerful demon army was utterly destroyed in the blink of an eye.

retreat!

Must retreat!

He's not fighting anymore!

Even if the Holy Emperor were to blame him, he wouldn't come!

"Retreat! Everyone retreat!" Wu Ji roared, grabbing the evil soul master beside him and howling as if he wanted to devour him, "Open the Demon Gate for me! I'm retreating!"

"But Your Majesty, the plan..."

The evil spirit master trembled, but before he could finish speaking, Wu Bo spoke again, silencing him, "I said we're not fighting anymore! We're retreating! Human! Don't you understand!?"

plan?

Plans are worthless!
Almost all of the people he brought with him are dead!

Even I am not safe!
If I die, then everything will be over!
In any case, the life energy created and retained from the killings is definitely enough to open the Demon Gate, allowing him to escape alone!
But just then, a roar swept in, "You think you can come and go as you please? What do you think this place is?!"

In mid-air, two imposing figures hurtled through the air like meteors. The smaller giant unleashed a powerful punch, shattering the atmosphere in its wake. Wu Jun reacted instinctively, swinging his halberd with tremendous force.

"Boom!"

With a thunderous roar, the terrifying force forced Wu Jing to retreat repeatedly. His opponent, on the other hand, was thrown into the air, revealing a terrifyingly imposing figure that surpassed even his own.

Its dark green body exuded a wild and unrestrained aura of blood and energy; it was none other than the original Douluo, Poison Undying, under the influence of his Martial Soul!
As for the other person beside him…

No, they shouldn't be called human.

A burly, dark-gold man descended like a cannonball, his entire body radiating an extremely powerful and surging aura that was no less potent than that of Poison Undying, and perhaps even surpassed it.

His huge, bell-like eyes gleamed with a fierce light!
Just as the boil was completely located, "Roar—"

A roar erupted! His incredibly thick arms suddenly swung, and from his fingertips, countless dark golden blades shot out. In the blink of an eye, his form transformed into a terrifying giant bear, hundreds of meters tall. His dark golden claws also grew larger with his body, eventually reaching a length of over thirty meters. Clearly, this burly man was Xiong Jun!
After deciding to launch a counter-plunder of the Demon Plane, Chen Junting directly approached Di Tian. Knowing the importance of life energy, Di Tian reached an agreement with Chen Junting on the division of resources after the war, and most of the major ferocious beasts also came out in full force.

Among them, Xiong Jun, together with Du Busi and a group of retainers from the Heavenly Soul Empire, was responsible for clearing out the demon legion in the north.

"go to hell!"

After reverting to his true form, Xiong Jun had no intention of speaking to Wu Du. His pair of terrifying dark golden blades, each over thirty meters long, suddenly split in mid-air and slashed out horizontally!

Seeing this, Poison Undying also made a fierce move!

At the same time, a group of elders from the Heavenly Soul Empire appeared around and launched a massacre from the perimeter without hesitation.

And the same scene,
The same thing happened in the other four directions.

The same level 9 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells were used to bombard the area, followed by a massacre of the remaining demons by the stronger warriors.

In the east, the elders of Shrek Academy, led by Xuanzi, faced off against the Demon Lord Balerkan; in the west, the three Supreme Elders of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, along with Gu Tianchen and others, led by Ye Xuanji, were locked in battle with the Demon Lord Reijax; in the south, due to the heavy losses suffered by the Star Luo Empire and the lack of top-tier combat power, coupled with the fact that this was a major event in the plane, they also notified Silver Moon Douluo Kong Deming to go north. With the cooperation of Bi Ji, the Ten Thousand Demon King, the Crimson King, and the Sea Dragon Douluo, they held off the Demon Lord Jie Kai, and even the Sea God Family was rushing here.

Only Alba, located in the very center, was left for Chen Junting, along with Di Tian, ​​who was always ready to provide support.

……

"Kill me!"

Under Alba's leadership, the defending armies of the central cities of the Douling Empire offered virtually no resistance. City after city was easily destroyed, as if nothing had happened.

"Hahaha—weak! Too weak! Let's plunder all the life energy here and strengthen ourselves!"

"Roar--"

Nine great demons led the way, and the demon army continued its advance.

However, at that moment, the celestial phenomena that they had been influencing suddenly changed. First, a ray of light pierced through the thick clouds, followed by ray after ray.

The moment the sunlight shone down, Alba, whose combat power had reached the level of a quasi-god, suddenly felt a bone-chilling cold.

"defense!"

He had barely let out a roar, before the other demons could even react, when the clouds pierced by the sunlight were completely torn apart! A rain of sword energy, like a shower of light, swept towards the entire demon army!
"Roar--"

Alba suddenly raised the flaming greatsword in his hand. As the greatsword hovered in the air, a vast expanse of purple-gold flames erupted, transforming into a sea of ​​fire! The nine great demons behind him also joined forces, gathering a torrent of energy to form a massive barrier!
Having conquered so many cities, they naturally encountered a lot of saturation attacks from soul tools, so they naturally had ways to deal with such group attacks.

However, "Swish swish swish swish—"

As they fought with all their might against the rain of swords, four divine swords appeared out of nowhere! Four completely different energies surged outwards at this moment, transforming into a colossal sword that reached the heavens and the earth!
"boom--"

Alba's flames shattered in an instant, and the barrier erected by the nine great demons crumbled like paper. The aftershocks of the four divine swords, upon impacting them, easily and severely injured the nine great demons! The most tragic case involved one of them having half his body sliced ​​off by the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Qi.

"Wow—" ×9
The nine great demons plummeted from the sky, crashing heavily to the ground. Blood gushed forth, their eyes rolled back, and they lost consciousness.

As for the demon legion, it's even worse; less than one in ten survived! Only Alba, as the demon lord, fared somewhat better.

At this moment, flames flickered in Alba's eyes; he already sensed a profound sense of foreboding. Just a human! Yet his aura was already so powerful—this was something he had never expected.

Thousands of meters in the air, Chen Junting silently floated there, his robes fluttering in the wind, the Seven Kill Sword in his right hand pointing diagonally at the ground. His mere aura caused the area around him to violently distort and shake the void.

After he arrived, when his divine sense swept across the surrounding city and he did not sense the slightest bit of life, Chen Junting's indifferent eyes were filled with a deep anger!

The moment the third eye between his brows opened, it was as if this entire space and time were locked in place! Chen Junting stretched out his left hand and pressed down with a palm flip!
In an instant, the previously clear sky was suddenly filled with swirling clouds! And in the palm of the turned hand, the Immortal Slaughtering Array Diagram appeared out of nowhere. As the palm pressed down, the primordial energy of heaven and earth continuously converged upon it, and the gathering clouds combined with this energy, transforming into a gigantic hand that blotted out the sky!

The Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram rose with the wind, corresponding to the four swords.

This moment completely enveloped Alba.

Now, this demon lord had only one thought in his mind: This world is too terrifying! I want to go home…

Unfortunately, the answer is no!
Therefore, all he should expect is Chen Junting's attack and killing!

"How could it possibly be a divine artifact!? Roar—"

The falling giant hand and the envelopment of the Immortal Slaughtering Array Diagram completely instilled the fear of death in Alba's heart. Now, he had no mind to care about the nine great demon subordinates whose fates were unknown, or the demon legion that had been nearly slaughtered.

But faced with the threat to his life, the rising fear turned into anger, even bordering on madness. He suddenly flapped his fiery wings and shot straight towards Chen Junting.

He knew he was now under lockdown!

There's no way to escape unless the blockade is broken!
"boom--"

A heavy sword strike landed squarely on the array diagram.

As a result, the Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram swirled with light, and then... *sizzle*...

Alba's greatsword was torn to shreds by the Immortal Slaughtering Formation, turning into dust. Then, a giant hand formed from the energy of heaven and earth and clouds showed no mercy, slamming directly onto Alba's chest and accelerating suddenly!
"boom!"

It was as if an 8.0 magnitude earthquake had struck the earth!

The terrifying aftershocks caused the surrounding buildings to collapse instantly, turning them into ruins. When the giant hand dissipated, a huge handprint was clearly imprinted on the ground.

And the center of the palm is undoubtedly Alba.

As for the Immortal Slaughtering Formation Diagram…

At this moment, it had already connected with the Four Swords of Zhuxian. Before Alba could even regain his senses, the area within the Zhuxian Sword Formation was instantly engulfed by a storm of wind and clouds! Terrifying sword energy and power instantly enveloped the area!
The nine great demons, who should have recovered, were once again severely injured by the newly formed Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation the moment the sword formation was completed.

This time, they will likely have no chance of recovery.
