Chapter 2045: Birth of the Abyssal Demon
Chapter 2045: Chapter 2045: Birth of the Abyssal Demon
"Haha, finally emerged."
Everyone was extremely excited, all eyes fixed on the black claw covered in scales.
Rip!
The hard membrane of the insect egg was torn by the sharp claw, the opening expanding larger and larger, from which quickly crawled out a beast resembling a dinosaur.
It was twenty meters long, with a sleek body covered in dense black scales, resembled a Velociraptor, armed with sharp claws and hard teeth.
However, it was different from a Velociraptor.
Its tail looked like a chain sword, with a sharp mouth at the tip that had a tongue like a dagger, cold and terrifying.
"Abyssal Demon, a perfect combination of beast and intelligent creature, unless instantly killed, it can disintegrate and resurrect, nearly invincible."
Triangular Venerable licked his lips.
The others heard this and looked at Triangular Venerable, showing a trace of disbelief.
"You don’t believe it?"
Triangular Venerable flicked a finger, blasting the Abyssal Demon in front of him into pieces.
Immediately, the pieces began to reassemble.
In no time, a complete version of the Abyssal Demon was restored, with its gaze still indifferent.
"That’s the only way to kill it."
Saying this, Triangular Venerable pressed down a palm, enveloping the Abyssal Demon within a domain, refining its entire body into nothingness to obliterate it.
"This talent is not bad."
Everyone nodded in approval.
Single Abyssal Demons can be easily killed, directly using higher realm advantages to instantly obliterate the entire body structure, preventing resurrection.
But, what if facing an army of millions?
Ultimately, it’s impossible to instantly crush all into void, and they could resurrect in large numbers, endlessly.
And if formations were added, it would be even more terrifying.
Rip! Rip!
More and more Abyssal Demons emerged, quickly forming a formation on the sea surface with as many as a hundred thousand, exuding a violent and murderous aura.
"Should we let this army test the waters first?"
Triangular Venerable looked around, seeking the consent of Venerable Hong Mei and others present.
The Abyssal Demon was researched and bred jointly by the Blood Moon Sea Demon Clan and Abyss Clan, shared by two peak forces, so all actions must seek the consent of others.
"Agreed."
Venerable Hong Mei nodded, and other Quasi-Heavenly Venerable level powerhouses also agreed, all wanting to see if the Abyssal Demons could give the disciples of the Misty Holy Sect a head-on blow.
"Then let’s wait and see!"
Everyone was confident, feeling assured of victory in this battle.
Outer Battlefield Area Two.
After killing the Lame Venerable and others and dividing the spoils, Huo Yunjie and others had already left and returned to guard Outer Domain Battlefield One.
In the Demon-quelling City.
Qiao Jiaxi stood on the city wall, beside him was Jia Yulan, who was sitting cross-legged, comprehending the laws, and preparing to enhance herself before proving her path.
Suddenly, a "splash" was heard from the sea surface.
This aroused Qiao Jiaxi’s alertness.
"Attention, we have enemies."
After warning everyone, Qiao Jiaxi stared at the sea and found a group of dinosaurs riding the waves, each resembling a mindless beast.
However, upon closer inspection, he noticed that these beasts had a cold yet intelligent gleam in their eyes.
This made Qiao Jiaxi feel that the visitors were not simple.
Tap, tap, tap!
A hundred thousand Abyssal Demons walked on the waves, changing their positions continuously during the march, soon forming a complex formation.
"Interesting."
Qiao Jiaxi could tell that this formation was very powerful, and coupled with each Abyssal Demon being of a high-grade Immortal Emperor level, the scale was even surprising to him.
"Sun Divine Fist!"
Qiao Jiaxi’s body swelled up, transforming into a giant golden figure, and with one punch, the blazing law shockwave alone could obliterate tens of thousands of Abyssal Demons.
But, in the next moment.
To Qiao Jiaxi’s astonishment, the Abyssal Demons that were blasted into void quickly reappeared, reforming into a corps of a hundred thousand strong.
"How is this possible?"
Qiao Jiaxi was puzzled and continued to strike, repeatedly smashing those Abyssal Demons, each punch could obliterate tens of thousands of the army, yet they could all be reborn.
"Boom" went the sound.
The hundred thousand strong army crashed into the city wall, fortunately, the Demon-quelling City was personally built by Ye Feng, robust enough with various ancient array patterns engraved on its surface, capable of easily withstanding this wave of assault and remaining intact.
"What’s going on?"
"It seems to be a group of beasts, even Senior Brother Qiao Jiaxi can’t annihilate them... Oh no, he can destroy them, but they keep resurrecting."
"Quick, defend against the enemy!"
The disciples who were in retreat appeared one after another, standing on the city wall, with as many as fifty thousand Immortal Emperor Realms attacking at the same time, naturally repelling the Abyssal Demons quickly.
"Qiao Jiaxi, enjoying yourself?"
At this moment, a phantom figure appeared on the distant sea surface, which was the Law Projection of Silver Eyebrow Venerable, with only half-step Heavenly Venerable power.
With the appearance of Silver Eyebrow Venerable, the hundred thousand Abyssal Demons temporarily ceased their assault.
"What kind of monster is this?" Qiao Jiaxi asked.
"The Abyssal Demon, a grand gift we the Abyss Clan and Blood Moon Sea Demon Clan have prepared for you," Silver Eyebrow Venerable’s Law Projection laughed heartily.
"Just a bunch of beasts that understand formations, we’re sure to have a way to solve them," Qiao Jiaxi said firmly.
"A way? Are you certain?" Silver Eyebrow Venerable’s Law Projection waved his hand, and the initially halted hundred thousand Abyssal Demons resumed their assault.
"Directly turn them into void!" Qiao Jiaxi ordered, then swiftly struck, smashing tens of thousands of Abyssal Demons into void with a punch, seemingly dead.
"Kill!"
The remaining Jia Yulan and others also joined the fight, simultaneously blasting the remaining tens of thousands of Abyssal Demons into fragments, then crushing them into void.
It seemed that the battle was going to be won.
But, with a flash of brilliance, the hundred thousand strong Abyssal Demons were resurrected one after another, still powerful.
This scene stunned Qiao Jiaxi and the others.
In the sky above.
Ye Feng sat on a white cloud, yawning as he watched the battle below.
"Abyssal Demons? Interesting!"
This type of creature can form formations, as long as the members within the formation aren’t instantly annihilated, they can all collectively resurrect, combined with the strong individual resurrection ability of the Abyssal Demons, once a hundred thousand Abyssal Demons form a formation, not even a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable could completely eradicate them.
The above was the information Ye Feng read.
Earlier, while wandering beyond, he had seen the Abyssal Demon insects being incubated in the Abyss, not knowing what they were, and today, he finally witnessed them firsthand.
"So many Abyssal Demons, and if there’s a powerful leader, it would be even more terrifying, capable of unleashing a force stronger than the Destroyer’s Treasure Box."
Ye Feng couldn’t help but speculate like this.
At this moment, he didn’t know of the existence of the Master of the Abyss, if he had known, he would surely be surprised.
After all, an Abyssal Demon army with a leader is tremendously terrifying, capable of exerting an even more dreadful destructive power, easily conquering a high-grade Great Universe.
On the ground.
The battle continued.
Qiao Jiaxi and other disciples continuously battled the Abyss Demon Army of a hundred thousand, but there was fundamentally no way to completely annihilate them, resulting in a stalemate on the scene.
"Do you see it?"
"The Abyssal Demons are still very strong."
Behind the scenes, the Triangular Venerable and others laughed, feeling that a legion of Abyssal Demons was more effective than a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable like the Lame Venerable who fought alone.
"Indeed, a formation composed of a hundred thousand Abyssal Demons is vast enough that an ordinary Quasi-Heavenly Venerable cannot kill them all at once. After forming a formation, as long as any single Abyssal Demon isn’t completely annihilated, they can all resurrect."
"This talent is indeed terrifying."
"The only pity is that the lifespan of Abyssal Demons is only ten thousand years. After ten thousand years, they will all die of age, with no way to extend their life."
"Ten thousand years of war can allow us to conquer countless universes, creating infinite resources, making this bargain profitable enough."
"True."
The Silver Eyebrow Venerable, Venerable Hong Mei, Triangular Venerable, and a dozen other Quasi-Heavenly Venerables discussed among themselves.
The Abyssal Demons are very strong.
Even the Quasi-Heavenly Venerables present found it terrible, and if faced with an army of a million, they would feel powerless and might even choose to flee.
If the Abyss Demon Army were commanded by the Master of the Abyss, it would be even more frightening.
Killing a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable would be no problem.
However, until now, the Master of the Abyss has not appeared, so we have to wait a bit longer.
Outer Battlefield Area Two.
The Abyss Demon Army of a hundred thousand repeatedly assaulted the Demon-quelling City. Many disciples were killed several times but were also resurrected.
"Damn it!"
"Disciples of the Misty Holy Sect can also be reborn, and it seems that each of them can be resurrected more than a few times; it seems to be more than that. What’s going on?"
Behind the scenes, the Triangular Venerable had a cold face.
On today’s battlefield, Qiao Jiaxi and tens of thousands of Misty Holy Sect disciples continuously clashed with the Abyss Demon Army, with both sides suffering countless casualties but also being resurrected.
After fighting to this point, the numbers on both sides remain in their initial state, with no losses on either side.
This left the Triangular Venerable feeling unbelievable.
"People of the Misty Holy Sect are simply undying!"
"It seems so."
"What can we do about it?"
"What else can we do? Dispatch a new Abyss Demon Army! We must level Demon-quelling City, otherwise, as long as it stands, it tramples on the entirety of our Cosmic Sea forces, so it must be eradicated."
"Yes, continue sending the army."
The Triangular Venerable and others gave orders, sending out the continuously nurtured Abyss Demon Army to land on the shores of Outer Battlefield Area Two.
"Senior Brother Jiaxi, more enemies!"
"It’s just another Abyss Demon Army of a hundred thousand, and with the previous ones, there are a total of two hundred thousand, which we can handle."
Qiao Jiaxi was not frightened at all.
Many disciples of the Misty Holy Sect were killed in battle, dying for real the first time, but later Ye Feng revived them using the microcosm, turning them into beings of the microcosm.
In this way, as long as the microcosm is not destroyed, they can resurrect limitlessly.
Hence, the disciples fought fiercely.
They thought, if we die, we’ll just be reborn, because the microcosm is now infinitely close to breaking through to a Lower Rank Great Universe, with countless void origin, not lacking energy. Thus, the revival time is swift, almost immediate after death.
This is not inferior to the Abyssal Demons.
"Mere Misty Holy Sect disciples, there are only fifty thousand of you, whereas we have an army of two hundred thousand, four times your number. The advantage is all mine!"
The Silver Eyebrow Venerable’s Law Projection shouted.
"Noisy!"
Qiao Jiaxi flickered, silently appearing in front of the Silver Eyebrow Venerable’s Law Projection, punched through its chest, and with a tremor of the arm, shattered the Half-Step Heavenly Venerable level projection into a puff of smoke.
"Hmph!"
After instantly killing the Law Projection of Silver Eyebrow Venerable, Qiao Jiaxi immediately turned around and returned to the city wall of Demon-quelling City, continuing to intercept the Abyssal Demons with Jia Yulan and other disciples.
Blood Moon Sea Demon Clan.
"Damn it!"
Having his Law Projection killed, the Silver Eyebrow Venerable’s face darkened, feeling even more resentful towards Qiao Jiaxi.
"There’s no point in sending Law Projections there; sending them is useless and a waste of time, unable to stop a monstrous genius like Qiao Jiaxi with a single strike."
Venerable Hong Mei instructed.
"Yes." The Silver Eyebrow Venerable quickly nodded, but still felt reluctant in his heart.
Outer Battlefield Area Two.
The Abyss Demon Army of two hundred thousand continuously assaulted the Demon-quelling City, but with Qiao Jiaxi blocking most of the pressure, the remaining fifty thousand disciples assisted from the sides, and with Jia Yulan and other multi-Hundred-layered Immortal Emperor-level geniuses taking action, the battle remained deadlocked, causing frustration.
"Why is it still the same situation?"
"The ten-thousand-strong army couldn’t break through the Demon-quelling City, and now even sending two hundred thousand doesn’t work!"
"Send more troops!"
More and more Abyssal Demons launched attacks, quickly forming an army of three hundred thousand, creating three formations and simultaneously launching assaults on Demon-quelling City.
Yet, the standoff continued!
"Damn it!"
The Triangular Venerable and others cursed in rage.
Outer Battlefield Area Two.
Ye Feng’s Divine Sense continuously scanned the cosmic passages, discovering that there were as many as three thousand portals here, each corresponding to a universe, encompassing High-grade Great Universes, Middle Rank Great Universes, and Lower Rank Great Universes.
Currently, most of these universes have fallen.
The Cosmic Consciousnesses of these universes have collapsed, seized by the Hundred-layered Immortal Emperors of the Abyss Clan, becoming gardens dedicated to creating Abyss Clan cultivators.
Of course, some universes have not yet fallen.
Among them, the strongest is the Twin Universe, followed by a few High-grade Great Universes, where Heavenly Venerables have emerged, secured with Quasi-Heavenly Venerable Divine Weapons. Since the Abyss Clan did not clash directly, they remain independent.
"Let’s explore this universe."
Ye Feng selected one of the High-grade Great Universes, intending to explore and potentially ally with its cultivators.
Then, he passed through the portal.
Great Sun Universe.
This is a High-grade Great Universe named Great Sun, resembling the former Flame Universe, but ranked higher in level.
A Heavenly Venerable was born here.
His title: Sun Heavenly Venerable.
After ascending to the Origin of All Things, he forged the Scepter of the Sun with the Eye of the Sun, sent it back to Great Sun Universe, making it a Supreme Treasure to repel the Abyss Clan.
At this moment, in the center of the Great Sun Universe.
A giant archway, from which a tall, elegant figure slowly stepped out.
It was Ye Feng.
"Haha, this is truly ’warm’."
Upon entering this universe, Ye Feng could feel the terrifying Cosmic Consciousness descending, trying to obliterate him, an outer realm intruder, to prevent him from destroying the universe.
"I’m not an enemy."
Ye Feng transmitted his experiences from outside to the Cosmic Consciousness of Great Sun Universe, making it realize the visitor was not an enemy.
"Are you from the Twin Universe?"
The Cosmic Consciousness of Great Sun Universe hurriedly transmitted to Ye Feng to verify the situation outside and halted its Laws of destruction against Ye Feng.
