Chapter 609: Chapter 361: Earthshaking Blow, Top of the Prodigy Rankings
Two minutes later, as Su Yu, transformed into a Demon God, continued to hammer at the City Defense Array in the south of the city, he suddenly heard someone shouting:
"Not good, one True Immortal and twenty-two Celestial Immortals have left North Main City, seemingly to ambush our allies to the north. Do any reinforcements stand ready?"
Wang Ziqing, overseeing the entire situation, immediately said over the command channel:
"Order, eastern troops, mobilize Daoist Xu Shan, Daoist Zeng Lin, Daoist Jiang Zhonghe..."
"Order, southern troops, mobilize Daoist Yu Chen, Daoist Xia You..."
"Order, western troops, mobilize Daoist Wanxiang, Li..."
At this moment, the voice of General Zhu Wushuang suddenly came over Su Yu’s channel:
"Not good, they might abandon the main city and flee. Daoist Su Yu, can you spare a moment to intercept them?"
Su Yu lifted his head towards the north of the city and nodded, replying:
"I can step in at any time."
"Intervene immediately to intercept them."
However, Su Yu did not immediately agree but said:
"I can intercept at any time, but if I appear too soon, they might change their minds. I want to wait until they have left the city before I ambush them."
Wang Ziqing immediately asked:
"How confident are you?"
"Completely confident!"
"Good, we will temporarily withhold reinforcements!"
Wang Ziqing quickly adjusted the orders, continuing to mobilize but confirming the choices first, without providing immediate support.
Su Yu also lowered his head, as if unaware of the Horned Demon People’s actions.
The Horned Demon experts followed the plan, heading directly north. Among them, the True Immortal immediately threw out a precious seal, which swiftly transformed into a towering mountain enveloped in dense yellow light, smashing down.
The other Celestial Immortals employed their strategies, unleashing various powerful Spiritual Treasures and Divine Techniques in layers, inundating them on the spot.
Simultaneously, within the besieged West Main City, over twenty Celestial Immortals and one True Immortal stealthily made their way to the north. When their kin launched the attack, they too burst out from the City Defense Array, launching a thunderous counterstrike under the cover of in-city thunder pillars, instantly sending tens of thousands of bolts of lightning soaring skyward, even overshadowing the brilliance of the City Defense Array’s protective light.
Joining forces from both sides, with two True Immortals and nearly fifty-two Celestial Immortals, they formed an overwhelming numerical advantage in a short time.
However, they were prepared long beforehand, receiving the early orders from Su Yu. Xuanyue swiftly withdrew the array, instead activating the Earth Protection of the Innate Xuanyue Banner, deploying a light curtain with a defense power of 50 billion, blocking all of that lightning.
"Not good, they’ve seen through our plan."
Horned Demon True Immortal Cheng Lan’s expression changed, immediately shouting:
"Don’t linger in battle, retreat at once!"
Figures decisively turned around, hurtling away like meteors.
But at that moment, Su Yu’s true Demon God form with four heads and eight arms vanished in a flash, reappearing a few thousand kilometers away in the void. The Central Celestial Being’s divine head showed a smile that sent chills through all the Horned Demon People’s hearts, and the invisible Power of Time exploded, freezing everything it touched.
Within the Time Domain, time is rendered motionless within a radius of 100 kilometers, or flows forward or backward.
Outside this domain, no thought or action can occur, as in an instant, all the Horned Demon Celestial Immortals had a single ominous thought before their minds froze, thoughts halted, unknowable and unattainable.
"Boom!"
The enormous hammerhead of the Chaos Clock Hammer struck a Horned Demon Celestial Immortal’s forehead accurately, so vast in its power that even the time stillness couldn’t hold steady, ripples softly spreading through the Time Domain.
"Boom!"
The Demon God turned as fast as lightning, swinging the hammer down again with full force.
Its body twisting, delivering a third strike to another Horned Demon Celestial Immortal’s chest.
"Hiss!"
From outside the Time Domain, to the Human Race Celestial Immortals observing, it appeared that Su Yu simply appeared from thin air, freezing everything within a 200-kilometer radius, then materialized overhead of a Horned Demon Celestial Immortal and struck down.
The Demon God’s motion remained unchanged, but in the same instant, another similar form with four heads and eight arms appeared over another Horned Demon Celestial Immortal, striking down.
A moment of 0.36 seconds.
An instant of 0.018 seconds.
A second contains 56 instants.
In the blink of an eye, 52 towering Demon God forms, over 20 kilometers tall, intertwined and mirrored within this small world.
"It’s over!"
"No, one more round!"
Su Yu exhaled lightly, once more swinging the hammer at the frozen 52 Horned Demon Celestial Immortals, their spirit puppets, and the two True Immortals, repeating the assault... ten whole times.
"That’s enough!"
Su Yu lifted the Time Domain.
"Rumble!"
The 520 unleashed strikes of the top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, power contained within time’s bonds, erupted, turning into an unimaginable chaotic flood, shattering space within a 200-kilometer radius to transform into a turbulent chaos.
In Su Yu’s perception, close to thirty seconds had passed within the Time Domain, while to outsiders, it had lasted only three seconds. In that instant, the 52 Celestial Immortals and two True Immortals of the Horned Demon People were reduced to ashes, even their Primordial Spirits annihilated instantly.
"Law of Time!"
Everyone gasped, faces lighting up with... a look of surprise and delight.
"Daoist Su, undoubtedly a prodigy among our people, destined to become a Golden Immortal!"
Only the enemy would fear his strength, while those without conflicting interests would rejoice.
With just one move, including two True Immortals, all 52 Horned Demon Celestial Immortals and their spirit puppet mounts were killed.
All the Immortals perished, the Horned Demon players in the two cities who witnessed this scene had their morale shattered at the scene, attempting escapes from all corners of the city.
The North Main City that wasn’t surrounded managed to escape, but the West Main City already encircled couldn’t easily flee, anyone attempting to flee was killed, whether individually or in groups, and without an Immortal-level powerhouse, the defending troops had no will to resist. The Four Symbols Chaos Array’s encirclement advanced far beyond before; it completed within five minutes, leading to the surging of earth, fire, wind, and water.
Lacking an Immortal to hold fort, the city endured solely on its energy reserves for forty-two minutes before falling, and the over 20 million Horned Demon players inside all perished.
Meanwhile, on the other side, players from North Main City had already fled entirely, leaving the city defenseless.
As the Four Symbols Main City fell, the sky’s winds and clouds changed, countless streams of Spiritual Light converging to form an enormous leaderboard suspended in the sky, displaying—
Su Yu: Xuanzhen Immortal Sect Heir, 92 years old, Primordial Spirit Celestial Immortal, ranked first on the Human Race Talent Leaderboard.
Leaderboard Achievement: With supreme mana, single-handedly slaying 52 Horned Demon Celestial Immortals and 2 True Immortals, destroying the Horned Demon People’s Fallen Star Islands Four Symbols Main City. After verifying the achievement’s authenticity, the Immortal Treasure Talent Leaderboard has captured his essence in the entry, ranking first, gaining the Human Race’s fortune.
"???"
"???"
"???"
Every Human Race player on the Fallen Star Islands could see the manifested Talent Leaderboard, the names and achievements it displayed, yet everyone who saw this screen was bewildered.
It wasn’t disbelief; the Talent Leaderboard couldn’t make mistakes.
But the content seemed too absurd, beyond the scope of their understanding.
A Golden Core-level player rubbed his eyes vigorously, unsurely asking his companion beside him:
"I recognize each character, but together they make no sense—Mr. Li, can you see it clearly?"
His nearby companion displayed the same shock and disbelief, also rubbing his face forcefully, saying uncertainly:
"Since the Talent Leaderboard validated it, it should be correct!!!"
"Damn, annihilating 52 Celestial Immortals and 2 True Immortals and destroying the Horned Demon Four Symbols Main City? What kind of achievement is that? Can it be this outrageous?"
"Incredible, how was this achieved? Isn’t this the level of a Profound Immortal?"
"Did you notice, he’s only 92 years old and already has Celestial Immortal cultivation."
"Absolutely astonishing."
"Unprecedented, never seen before in human history, it seems."
"No, as far as I know, the fastest to become an Immortal in our Human Race was Marshal Li Wuji at 265 years old, nearly three times his age."
"Could it be that he might surpass Marshal Li Wuji in the future?"
"Whether he surpasses him is uncertain, but he is sure to ascend to a Profound Immortal."
"An absolute prodigy!"
At the Horned Demon Four Symbols Main City, North District, after breaching the City Defense Array, the Immortals temporarily entered the city.
General Wang Ziqing quickly issued orders, having several Immortals adept at formations repair the City Defense Array, while over twenty Celestial Immortals spread out to clear the remaining Horned Demon People, with several Celestial Immortals returning to support the main military force.
