Chapter 622 - Foreign Aggression
622 Foreign Aggression
On the streets of the Western Capital, the Balrog, whose body was burning with pitch-black flames, was staring at Lin Xuan in a daze. It was the strongest among Overlords, and its strength was extremely powerful. As for the other lower Overlords, the children of the abyss, they could not enter. Therefore, this invasion was an opportunity for these Overlords to get a head start.
This time, it seemed that it was going to fail. The human in front of it not only didn’t die under its master’s attack, but he also seemed to have made a breakthrough. They were originally on par, but now it seemed that he was no longer a match.
Lin Xuan, with his three elements as one, took another step towards heaven-rank. This wasn’t a simple step, but a crucial one. Only by taking this step would it not be so difficult to break through to heaven-rank.
To put it simply, Lin Xuan’s power had undergone a qualitative change. The three systems of essence, energy, and spirit were originally independent, but at this moment, it was no longer the case. Instead, the three systems had fused into one and became even more powerful.
The Wudang Immortal, Ten Thousand Laws Heavenly Man, and his wife had all taken this step. Only Human Butcher Weiguo had not taken this step. Therefore, this was a very commendable step.
Lin Xuan’s lips curled into a smile as he grabbed at the flame demon, pulling it right in front of him and crushing it with a gentle grip. However, the flame demon was still a flame demon, and it would not kill its enemy with such brute force.
The flame demon’s core was a wisp of black abyssal flame. It started from the weakest flame demon and slowly grew until it became a proper flame demon, or even an Ancient Flame Demon.
The transformation of the flame demon’s life essence was the transformation of its source — the abyssal flames. As long as this wisp of flame was not extinguished, it could continue to live.
Just like the other demons, as long as they hid their source of abyssal flames somewhere, they could resurrect infinitely. However, there were still many restrictions, such as they had to be in the same world.
The Balrog that had just arrived on the Blue Planet had yet to have the time to hide its source of abyssal flames in some unknown place.
Lin Xuan immediately appeared in front of the Balrog and squeezed hard. With that the source of the Balrog’s abyssal flames was revealed. Then, the Balrog’s soul manifested, and the face on the spiritual body revealed a terrifying expression. It was truly afraid of this person.
In the past, Balrogs were fierce and warlike mostly because they had the confidence to hide their abyssal flames well and never fail. Now, the Balrog was facing death and showing the ugly side of the demons it had once killed. It had once laughed at these dying demons for not having any fighting power, and now it was its turn to be laughed at.
Without any hesitation, he twisted it lightly, and the abyssal flames were extinguished.
A powerful flame demon, a Balrog, had died.
This was only the beginning. There were countless powerhouses in the abyss, and the Blue Planet could not compare to them at all. Although only one layer of the abyss had invaded the Blue Planet this time, it was far from what the Blue Planet could resist.
The situation in the Western Capital was already under control. Many ability users made their moves and subdued the low-level and mid-level demons. As for the high-level demon, there was only one, the Balrog.
This was only the Western Capital, where there were pillars of the Taixia Country like Lin Xuan and Zhu Mingmei, but what about the second, third, fourth, and fifth tier cities? Even if there were earth-rank masters, there was only one. There were not many mystic-rank masters left, and most of them were yellow-rank masters.
It was difficult to resist the attack of the abyss with this rank!
After stabilizing the situation in the Western Capital, Lin Xuan led many powerhouses to sweep across various cities. Due to the lack of manpower, he allocated manpower from the dungeons in the three major worlds.
It was only then that Lin Xuan had a general idea of how many mystic-rank masters and earth-rank masters there were in the Taixia Country.
Just one world dungeon alone could take out a dozen earth-ranked masters and nearly ten thousand mystic-ranked masters.
He didn’t say much. The situation was urgent and there was no time to waste.
“Let’s go!”
Experts entered the Flying Thunder Gate one after another, heading to the various cities to provide reinforcements. Countless evil demons were killed, and their corpses were collected for Zhu Mingmei to deal with.
In fact, among all the powerhouses, only Zhu Mingmei could deal with these evil demon corpses. This was because she walked the Path of Hell. After this, she would build her own six Paths of Hell. These evil demon corpses were extremely good resources for her.
A demon’s eye fell on the mountain of corpses and started to burn. Strangely, the number of corpses on the mountain kept decreasing, but nothing happened. On the contrary, Zhu Mingmei looked as if she had been greatly nourished.
“Why don’t we launch a counterattack on the abyss? We’ll conquer a level of the abyss and make it the location of the Netherworld.”
“Sure, and how can one level be enough? I want to take down eighteen levels of the abyss as a gift for you. It means that you will always be an eighteen year old, my love!”
“Aww, my sugar plum, that’s so sweet! What about-”
“Uh, let’s take it easy. We can’t defeat the abyss. What’s more important is to protect our base from the outside. After all, we have to clean up all the abyss gates here as soon as possible. Even if we can’t destroy them, we have to seal them in case they ruin our escape.”
Ten Thousand Laws Heavenly Man coughed. He was not used to his cold and arrogant teacher… acting like a little girl.
“Well then, I’ll have to trouble you to guard Sky Mountain and stop all the evil demons from coming!”
Under the pressure of the Bright Phoenix, Ten Thousand Laws Heavenly Man had no choice but to change his words and obediently oblige.
Lin Xuan had no reason to refuse. He turned into a bolt of lightning and instantly arrived at Sky Mountain, looking down at the other side.
Sky Mountain was at Kunlun, and Lin Xuan was the guardian of Kunlun City. Although Kunlun City was now half-destroyed, Lin Xuan’s position had not changed. Therefore, whether it was in terms of duty or responsibility, it was his duty to guard Sky Mountain.
After all, other countries did not have as powerful a force as Taixia. Although they did have a few earth-rank powerhouses, they were no match for the flame demon from the abyss and were easily killed. Occasionally, a few powerful ones could only escape by a hair.
Undoubtedly, Taixia Taixia Country was the safest place in the world. At least in the perception of foreigners, Taixia Country was the safest place!
Therefore, a group of foreign earth-rank powerhouses were fleeing towards Taixia Country crazily, followed by a large group of demon powerhouses.
When they saw the towering Sky Mountain and the expert standing on the top of the mountain, they were ecstatic.
“Save us, save us!”
