Chapter 847: The Fire God Pillar of Dragons and Phoenixes (III)
There was an astonishing wound stretching from Sima Xian’s left shoulder to his right hip. His head army had almost been cut through all the way, revealing traces of blood. And, his aura seemed extremely weak. His original bold aura had completely vanished. Only his bald head continued to shine.
Although he had been cut down by the Lightning Demon God Buer, he still clutched onto the chain of the Gigantic Ball of Lightning tightly. He was just about to hit the ground.
The Buer and Sima Xian had already been locked in battle for a long time. Sima Xian used the power of the Spiritual Stove of Godly Purple Thunder to cover himself with lightning, barely blocking Buer’s attacks.
However, Buer was known among the demons for his attack. He really was stronger than Simaxian. Among the demon gods, the Buer and Eligos were on extremely good terms. They could be described as best of friends.
Buer saw Eligos die to Lin Xin’s attacks and when it happened, he was completely entangled with Sima Xian and his power of lightning, so he was unable to save Eligos.
Eligos’ death dyed Buer’s eyes red with rage. He no longer bothered to hold back his strength, directly using his demon god transformation and immediately overwhelming Sima Xian with his full strength. Using his terrifying attacks and speed, he finally breached Sima Xian’s defences and landed a vicious slash on Sima Xian’s chest. If it were not for the defence of Sima Xian’s epic tier armour, he probably would have been cut in half by the attack earlier.
Buer’s front limbs were the same as a praying mantis’, while he had four legs below and a pair of thin wings on his back. Once he unfurled his wings, not only could he fly extremely quickly, he could easily change directions in the air as well. The way he attacked was rather similar to the Asura Strike that Long Haochen and a few members of the Bright Glimmer of Hope could use. And, every single strike of his was as sharp as the Asura Strike. It would lead to heavy injury once it landed.
There was a flash of dark green light. If the naked eye was able to capture what had happened, a strange greenness extended forwards when Buer extended his wings. It did not just appear from his wings, but from his four legs as well. In the end, the strange, green colour all gathered on his pair of front limbs.
This was Buer’s domain, the Sealbreaker Domain. It displayed all of its powers in destruction. It boosted his sharpness. Not only did his domain make his attacks incredibly powerful, it could also cut through the domains of his opponent. It could be described as an extremely special but terrifyingly powerful domain. Since he could rank within the top ten demon gods, how was it possible for his cultivation to be weak?
Eligos’ death had completely infuriated Buer. He was about to make Sima Xian become the first to die under the attack of his domain. After he killed Sima Xian, he would go avenge Eligos.
Without a doubt, Sima Xian was currently in extreme danger as he was targeted by a fatal, full-powered attack from the tenth demon god. However, if Buer was familiar with the Bright Glimmer of Hope, he should have known that the members of the Bright Glimmer of Hope were always highly coordinated with one another. However, why didn’t Cai’er use the Domain of Instant Flash while Sima Xian was under such danger? And why didn’t the Soul Sharing Chains come into effect when he received the attack earlier?
Unfortunately, Buer was unfamiliar with these facts. This was the first time he had encountered a member of the Bright Glimmer of Hope on the battlefield.
Sima Xian was not flustered at all. He clutched the Gigantic Ball of Lightning firmly as he fell through the air. In just around five seconds, he had struck the ground heavily. Due to his personal weight and the Gigantic Ball of Lightning, as well as the force from Buer’s attack earlier, he was actually completely embedded in the ground, while Buer’s blades descended from the sky with the power of his domain. With a strange, green light, they slashed towards Sima Xian, about to cut him to pieces.
Just as Sima Xian was about to perish under Buer’s attack, a strange sight suddenly appeared.
White light suddenly appeared on Sima Xian’s chest. The image of a white angel appeared silently on his armour. The beautiful angel face was clearly ridden with tears, as her clear eyes seemed to be filled with endless sadness.
In the moment after the angel had appeared, a figure silently appeared before Sima Xian. A huge shield just happened to block the Lightning Demon God descending from above.
Clang, clang! With two explosive sounds, the figure that had suddenly appeared was directly set flying by Buer under the combined effects of his domain and his demon god transformation.
However, the figure had also managed to save Sima Xian. When Buer knocked his opponent away, he himself rebounded slightly as well. He was unable to attack Sima Xian immediately.
And, when Buer slashed the shield earlier, he saw two strange images. One of them was the same as the angel of sadness on Sima Xian’s chest, while the other was a terrifying fiend.
The two images both appeared on the shield. They each took up half of the shield, constructing a strange image of that was half white and half back.
When he sent the shield-wielding knight flying, Buer clearly saw the image of the fiend blur and a figure seemed to emerge from the shield and land on him.
When he had launched his attack with his full strength, he was unable to pull back or dodge, which was why he could only endure the invasion of the figure while slashing his opponents, despite sensing something was amiss.
What was happening? Buer circulated his spiritual energy rapidly in surprise, in attempt to purge the enemy’s power from his body. However, he immediately realised all of this was pointless, because nothing had invaded his body.
It was also at this moment, that Sima Xian freed himself from the ground and climbed to his feet. He seemed to be in a rather sorry shape, all dishevelled, but when he looked at Buer, he smirked. He said something to Buer that Buer did not understand.
“This is a battle between an angel and a fiend.” When he said that, the angel of his chest suddenly became exceedingly bright.
The sad angel seemed to come alive. It was also at this moment that an image had appeared on Buer’s chest as well. It was the terrifying devil from the knight’s shield earlier.
In the next moment, Buer and Sima Xian became drawn together like the two poles of a magnet. A great pulling force immediately dragged them towards each other. The power was so great that it exceeded both of their cultivations.
Oh no. Buer had already determined something was amiss, but even when he had undergone the demon god transformation, he was actually unable to break free from this pulling force. He could only watch as he collided towards Sima Xian. Sima Xian’s body began to swell crazily in that moment. In the blink of an eye, he became a hundred meter tall as he shone with dense, golden light.
Without a doubt, the person who had helped Sima Xian blocked the fatal attack was Han Yu. After blocking the attack, he did not continue fighting with Sima Xian. Instead, he immediately returned to his original battlefield, keeping his previous opponent busy.
The Lightning Demon God did not know what the opponent’s technique was, but in that moment, he became uneasy for some reason. Unknown situations were the most terrifying. However, as a demon god and one that ranked tenth, Buer obviously would not show any weakness at a critical moment like now. He did not try to dodge. He confronted it openly. He might not have been able to unleash his speed, but he still had his terrifying attacks.
Raising his blade-like limbs, he unleashed his domain once more. There was a flash of dark, green light and he directly swung them towards Sima Xian’s heart.
Buer understood now that Sima Xian had not actually been using his full strength earlier. At least, he had not used this domain. However, no matter how powerful Sima Xian’s domain was, it would be completely useless Buer’s own domain. Enlarging his body would not reduce the damage. Even if he managed to pull of his scheme and restrict Buer’s speed, he would still die before a powerful attack. At most, he would be able to attack his opponent once before dying. However, Buer was confident he could block Sima Xian’s attack under his demon god transformation.
The two figures of opposite sizes collided together. Standing a hundred meters tall, it was impossible for Sima Xian to be as agile as Buer. Buer’s mantis blades did end up landing on his chest first.
A disdainful coldness flashed through Buer’s eyes. Let alone this baldy, even existences on the level of the Moon Demon God and Star Demon God would die if his two limbs powered by his domain managed to land. Only the Demon God Emperor might have been able to block it.
Could Sima Xian block Buer’s domain? Of course not. Using both the demon god transformation nand his domain, the tenth demon god that was known for his strength could rank within the top three in terms of offensive ability.
However, there was a huge prerequisite to all this. In order to unleash such offensive power, his domain had to be in use.
The pair of mantis blades strengthened with the Sealbreaker Domain seemed to be less than an inch away from Sima Xian’s chest. It had completely penetrated the power of light around Sima Xian and Sima Xian’s muscles experienced intense pain as well.
It was also at this critical moment that a sight that was strange to Buer but wondrous to Sima Xian occurred.
The terrifying demon on Buer’s chest and the sad angel on Sima Xian’s chest lit up at the same time. When they lit up, the terrifying fiend produced a soundless scream, while two droplets of tears rolled out from the sad angel’s eyes. The two droplets of tears were translucent, as if they were the most pure substance in the world.
