Chapter 541: Subsidence

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Yang Ling possessed an army with myriad troops, and the situation was within his grasp.

Yang Ling sheathed the Battle Soul Blade into the scabbard and walked in front of the reverent gazes of the numerous Sea Tribe’s warriors. He proceeded toward the Demon Castle, where the old witch and others were situated.

Hydra, Dark Dragon King, and others crowded around Yang Ling, while the six-winged angel leader Ophelia and the prisoner Sea Demon Eliza were behind him, and they followed him closely.

At first, Yang Ling planned to use the hostage, the Sea Demon Eliza, to threaten the old witch in public, but it seemed now that he didn’t have to do so. After he got absolute power, he didn’t have any longer to use any schemes against the enemy, and he could just adopt the most violent and direct approach and method that was also the most effective.

“Your lordship! Your blade is too terrifying. When you attacked with the blade, I felt that even my soul was shaken.” The beauty Sala put her hands on her chest and acted as if she was a fragile maiden before she looked in fright at the terrifying Battle Soul Blade on Yang Ling’s back.

The Nine-Headed Python King Hydra, Dark Dragon King, and others wandered everywhere and torn to shreds the tenacious enemies. They were killing to their heart’s content, and the beauty Sala also wanted to seize the chance to carry out a massacre and let the Demon Island’s men taste the might of the Groundhog Army. However, after she got the Corpse Wizard King’s command, she was forced to stand behind Yang Ling to protect him.

Even though Yang Ling was so powerful, the prudent Corpse Wizard King still made plans for the worst situation possible. The beauty Sala was neither a male or a female, and everyone kept a distance from her. But, she still possessed pretty good power in comparison to the other, and she on the verge of advancing into God-Level.

When Yang Ling killed fifteen old monsters with a single blade strike, the beauty Sala was standing behind him, and her soul was almost extinguished by the murderous aura that filled the land. At that instant, it was strenuous for her to move even her finger, and this was still due to the murderous aura’s shockwaves. It was the fifteen old monsters that bore the attack’s brunt faced, and it was really unimaginable what kind of terrifying power they faced.

“Sala, you don’t have to follow me at every moment from now on, and you should be careful.” When Yang Ling saw the pale-faced beauty Sala, he took out several Magical Beast’s Blood Orbs from his spatial ring and made her swallow them.

The Battle Soul Blade possessed astonishing might, and even though Yang Ling was already prepared for this mentally, its might still surpassed his expectation by much, and even Yang Ling was surprised by its intense murderous aura. It was unknown how many enemies’ heads were chopped by the Battle Soul Blade, and it was unknown how many High-Level Magical Beasts’ blood did the Battle Soul Blade drink.

The Battle Soul Blades might was great, but it also consumed a great amount of Wizard Power and Mental Energy.

Just a single blade strike almost consumed a third of Yang Ling’s Wizard Power and Mental Energy, and when he held the Battle Soul Blade in his hand, fighting spirit erupted uncontrollably from his heart, and he felt a berserk thirst for blood so great that his body became jittery. Such a feeling was similar to a sudden great Crazy Berserk Transformation, and he felt like he had to release his body’s explosive force quickly.

“I must probably find time to refine his battle blade again.” Yang Ling stroked the ice-cold blade’s hilt. He understood that it would be better to handle this sooner.

The Battle Soul Blade’s might was too great, and it was obvious that he couldn’t control it freely with his current power. Even the beauty Sala next to him was affected greatly, and this was proof that great hidden danger laid on it. If he didn’t solve the issue quickly, he might probably suffer an accident one day.

The Demon Castle was also covered by a scarlet halo like the Magical Formation Spell that engulfed the whole Demon Island, but this halo’s scope was smaller by much, and it seemed like it was a miniature Thorns Magical Formation Spell. Some Sea Tribe’s warriors pounced at the castle crazily, and they all wished to tear the Sea Demons into shreds. But, it was a pity that they were obstructed by the strange scarlet halo and kept outside.

“The Ancient Thorns Magical Formation Spell! That is right, it’s really the Thorns Magical Formation Spell in the legend,” When the Nine-Headed Python Hydra saw the hateful scarlet halo, it cried out in alarm. A while ago, it was still skeptical, but now, it was totally sure that this was the Thorns Magical Formation Spell in the legend.

According to the Magical Beast Plane’s legend, the Thorns Magical Formation Spell wasn’t like ordinary Protective Formation Spells, and it was divided into an Outer Formation Spell and an Inner Formation Spell. The Outer Formation Spell was in charge of defending against enemies and preventing an invasion, while the Inner Formation Spell was mainly in charge of extracting enough Earth Element Magical Power to provide the Magical Formation Spell enough energy. In ordinary circumstances, as long as the Inner Formation Spell was working, it would be too difficult for enemies to break the Outer Formation Spell.

“Your lordship! If I didn’t guess wrong, the Thorns Magical Formation Spell should have been either damaged heavily long ago and the Sea Demon Tribe had just made simple reparation to it, or it had already extracted the Earth Element Magical Power in several hundred miles radius around the Demon Island and couldn’t get enough energy. If this weren’t the case, we wouldn’t have managed to get inside so easily.” Hydra spoke as it observed the Magical Ripples in the air, and it became surer of its assumption.

The Earth Element Magical Power’s ripples in the air were too weak, and this was too abnormal. Hydra couldn’t find a better explanation for this other than its extraction by the Thorns Magical Formation Spell.

A heavily damaged Magical Formation Spell was already so terrible, so if it was at a normal state, wouldn’t it be more outstanding?

Yang Ling shook his head. He was quite interested in this mysterious Magical Formation Spell, and if he wasn’t pressed for time, he would have surely studied it carefully. If he could add Confining Restriction Spells to the Thorns Magical Formation Spell, its might would surely be increased greatly.

“Your lordship, the Sea Demon Tribe still don’t want to surrender, what do you think about this?” The Corpse Wizard King walked over with big strides to make a report. His body was drenched in enemies’ blood.

After the Corpse Wizard King instructed the allied armies to surround the Demon Island, he went by himself to ask the enemy to surrender, but the Sea Demons inside didn’t say a word, and they resisted them tenaciously until the end.

“You don’t have to ask them to surrender. Just raid them, and don’t let off a single person.” Yang Ling looked at the pale-faced Sea Demon Eliza behind him before he passed down an order.

At first, he planned to coerce the Sea Demon Tribe to surrender so he would lower the damage they would take as much as possible. But, the crazy old witch wasn’t considerate and resisted them tenaciously until the end. This was why he didn’t mind to make the Sea Demon Tribe disappear from the ocean.

The Sea Demon King that possessed great power might come back at any moment, and this was why he must seize the time to destroy the Demon Island quickly so that an accident wouldn’t occur, and after he had done so, he would leave quickly.

“Hehehe! Good, I will slaughter them all.” The Corpse Wizard King that received command left and ordered the Magical Beast Army and Sea Tribes to launch fierce attacks. They attacked crazily the Magical Formation Spell that engulfed the Demon Castle.

BANG!

A hundred Magic Crystal Cannons and more launched a valley of attacks, and they bombarded the scarlet halo engulfing the Demon Castle. As for the Nine-Headed Python King Hydra, it took back its true form and rammed its body against the halo. It was followed closely by the Dark Dragon King and Flying Dragon King that led a large group of flying Magical Beasts, as well as the Sea Tribes’ members, whose eyes turned bloodshot that released their full power. They launched crazy attacks upon the Sea Demons’ last defensive line!

The same situation that happened when the outer Thorns Magical Formation Spell was besieged occurred again on the Demon Island.

But what was different about them was that the Outer Magical Formation Spell that was supplemented by a large number of Crystal Ores managed to black wave upon wave of the crowd’s attacks. As for the Inner Magical Formation Spell, it was worse by much, and it turned dim after just several rounds of attacks, and as a cracking sound echoed out, it started shaking, and it would collapse at any moment.

The scarlet light enveloping the Demon Castle turned dimmer, and more cracks appeared on the Demon Island. The cracks turned gradually deeper, and they turned from ordinary cracks to large gullies. The Sea Demons inside the Demon Island that witnessed this terrifying sight descended into panic, and they were all pale-faced.

“It’s awful! The whole Demon Island will sink down. What should we do?”

“Old madam, what should we do? What should we do?”

The frightened Sea Demons surrounded the heavily injured old with, and they hoped that she could save their tribe from a crisis again. For the past years, the tribe survived many crises without mishap, and they repealed many powerful attacks of the Sea Tribes’ allied armies. In the eyes of the tribe members, the old witch that had power at the Mid-Level Deity Stage was their strongest support other than the Sea Demon King that was previously imprisoned in the Stormy Sea.

What should be done?

The ashen-faced old witch looked at the bloodthirsty and crazy Magical Beasts outside the castle before she looked at the Sea Tribes’ warriors that had bloodshot eyes and the deep crevices that appeared on the ground. She was already unable to turn around this hopeless situation!

Intense, restless feelings welled up in her heart since the moment the Outer Thorns Magical Formation Spell was broken. It was a pity that she couldn’t prevent the situation from worsening even though she strived hard and had done everything she could.

“It’s sinking! The Demon Island will sink. I really didn’t expect that the calamity recorded on the crystal ball still occurred.” Tears streaked across the face of the old witch, and she took a sparkling crystal ball from her pocket.

Several thousand years ago, she bore the grief she felt because the Sea Demon King was imprisoned, and she led the few remaining clansmen to hide from the Sea Tribes hunting them down. She was then left without a good choice, and she gnashed her teeth as she went to take refuge in the Death Sea.

The old witch managed to find the Demon Island that was easy to defeat and hard to attack, while she had also found this crystal ball inadvertently. The magic spell in the crystal ball stated that she would manage to repair the Ancient Thorns Magical Formation Spell reluctantly with her clansmen, repel many enemy armies hunting them down, and settle here strenuously.

It was also recorded on the crystal ball that the Ancient Thorns Magical Formation Spell would help her clansmen withstand many crises, but a terrifying calamity was also foretold. When the Earth Element Magical Power in a hundred miles radius was extracted, and the Formation Spell didn’t have enough supplement, it wasn’t just the Magical Formation Spell that would collapse, the whole Demon Island would sink into the seabed forever.

The old witch turned from a pretty and kindhearted Sea Demon into a vicious and merciless schemer that would use all possible means because she wanted to prevent the occurrence of the terrifying calamity, and she had also done it for her clan’s survival. She had used all means possible to rope in numerous murderous old monsters and used the Demon Island’s power to conquer a Sea Tribe after another before plundering a large amount of Crystal Ores, food, and other resources crazily.

She had made a lot of effort so that the tribe’s inheritance could be passed down for several thousand years, and she turned from the tribe’s most beautiful Sea Demon into an old woman with a face filled with wrinkles and a body filled with wounds. But, as she saw the tribe becoming stronger with every passing day, she felt quite gratified, and she didn’t expect that she still wouldn’t prevent the terrifying calamity.

“I’m not willing to accept this. Even if I have to die, I still won’t accept this.” As the old witch observed the cracks on the island that multiplied quickly and saw the muddy seawater emerging through them, she detected that the whole island was sinking quickly. Tears streaked across her face, and she shouted at the top of her throat. She didn’t want to accept this, and she raised her head high as she yelled loudly.

She hated this world, and she hated the Creation God in the legend. She hated him because he created the Sea Demon Tribe, yet he sent so many disasters after them. She also cursed this dark world. Other people would get to enjoy a life of luxury, while she had to wander around in the four seas with her parents since her childhood, and she was bullied and discriminated against everywhere. She hated the unfair Destiny Goddess that separated her and her husband, the Sea Demon King, for ten thousand years. They had just reunited for less than a day, yet they would be shortly separated forever.

She wasn’t willing to accept this, and she wasn’t willing to yield to this destiny.

Even if she had to die, she still wanted to take another glance at the Sea Demon King before her death. Ten thousand years ago, she depended upon the Sea Demon King to roam the four seas, and pieces of memory about this period flashed past her mind.
