Chapter 191
Xiao Minghuang’s heart tightened, her expression grave. She could sense that the True Demon’s aura was even stronger than when she had fought him earlier.
“Hehe, human ant, do you know why I have grown stronger again?”
Xiao Minghuang did not respond, but an ominous premonition arose in her heart.
“Hehe… You ants fled in panic, but left behind countless flesh and blood as nourishment. Now, all of that nourishment has entered my belly!”
“This taste is truly delightful!”
The True Demon laughed sinisterly, his voice as chilling as a devil’s.
“What?!”
Everyone present was horrified.
Had the millions of citizens of Great Xia already been devoured by the True Demon?!!
“Damn it, how could this happen?!”
Xiao Hanbing’s eyes turned blood red, a dense killing intent surging from his body.
“Beast! I’ll fight you to the death!”
His figure blurred as he charged toward the True Demon in mid-air, his hands swinging, unleashing a series of brilliant sword lights that blasted toward the True Demon.
“Hmph! An ant dares to resist?”
The True Demon sneered, raising his hand. A stream of blood qi transformed into a spear and shot out.
“Pfft!”
The crimson spear pierced through the sword radiance, shattering it, and continued its forward thrust!
“Ah!”
Xiao Hanbing let out a miserable cry as the blood spear struck his chest, causing blood to gush out violently. His body was sent flying backward.
“Old Ancestor!”
The Emperor was greatly alarmed and quickly flew over to support Xiao Hanbing, anxiously asking:
“How are you?”
Blood trickled from the corner of Xiao Hanbing’s mouth as he shook his head, a faint smile appearing on his face: “I’m fine.”
The previous strike had been mostly absorbed by the national defense array, sparing him the brunt of the damage. Even so, Xiao Hanbing still felt excruciating pain in his chest and abdomen, as if his internal organs had been shattered.
He struggled to his feet and shouted to Xiao Minghuang:
“Little Nine, be extremely careful!”
Xiao Minghuang nodded and soared into the sky, facing the True Demon from a distance.
The True Demon, having devoured millions of living beings, had experienced a slight increase in power. With her current cultivation level, Xiao Minghuang couldn’t discern the True Demon’s exact strength, but it was certainly no weaker than when they had fought earlier.
“How does it feel, ant? My body is now filled with your kin. Their deaths are all because you fled from battle. Don’t you feel ashamed?”
The True Demon sneered sinisterly, its eyes filled with intense mockery.
Xiao Minghuang replied coldly, “They were killed by you, and I will avenge them. Evil demon, don’t think you can shake my resolve!”
“Hmph!”
Seeing her unmoved, the True Demon snorted coldly. The blood energy around it surged even more violently, and waves of destructive aura filled the entire void.
It seemed as if this entire realm was now under the True Demon’s control.
Xiao Minghuang’s heart tightened. She knew that if she didn’t slay this True Demon today, not only would the lives devoured by the demon be lost in vain, but even the millions of living beings within the city would perish in an instant.
“Ant, prepare to die!”
“Ha ha ha…”
The True Demon let out a series of eerie laughs. With a sudden shake of its bone spear, an overwhelming tide of bloody energy surged forth.
Xiao Minghuang’s expression changed, and she immediately activated the national defense array to resist the erosion of the blood evil.
She didn’t immediately draw upon the last remaining trace of national fortune energy but instead chose to wait for the right moment.
“Hmph! A mere array can’t stop me!”
The True Demon sneered, its aura growing even more terrifying. The entire world turned blood-red.
Holding the bone spear, it pointed directly at Xiao Minghuang. A streak of blood light tore through the sky, carrying a force capable of destroying heaven and earth, and rushed toward Xiao Minghuang!
Seeing the blood light approaching, Xiao Minghuang’s gaze sharpened, and she immediately activated the national defense array at full power.
Boom!
The national defense array shone brightly, blocking the blood light.
Although the national defense array lacked offensive power, it was a relic from ancient Xia and possessed extremely strong defensive capabilities. Even the True Demon couldn’t break through it in a short time.
“This array is quite something…”
Seeing that the bone spear couldn’t break through the array, the True Demon’s expression turned suspicious.
The bone spear was a Heavenly-tier treasure, and even though it was being controlled by him, a Divine Transformation Realm cultivator, it couldn’t break through the formation controlled by a few Nascent Soul Realm cultivators.
This indicated that the formation’s tier was likely not lower than Heavenly-tier as well!
“Hmph! Human strength has its limits. I refuse to believe you can keep this up indefinitely!”
The higher the tier of a formation, the more spiritual energy it required to maintain. A formation as powerful as this must demand an enormous amount of spiritual energy. He was certain it couldn’t last long.
With this in mind, he stopped attacking the formation with full force. Instead, he targeted its weaker points, striking with minimal cost.
Inside the formation.
Xiao Minghuang looked at Ye Ruoshui and Lin Wanqiu, speaking solemnly:
“We must be prepared. In this battle, we only have one chance to strike!”
Ye Ruoshui and Lin Wanqiu nodded.
They were well aware of the true demon’s immense power. If he managed to evade their attack, they wouldn’t get a second chance.
This battle was extremely perilous!
The two women took a deep breath, stepped closer to Xiao Minghuang, and tightly grasped her hands.
At the same time.
The innate energies within their bodies interconnected, rapidly flowing into Xiao Minghuang’s body.
Feeling the balance of yin and yang forces within her gradually stabilize and reach saturation, Xiao Minghuang focused her gaze on the bloody demonic figure in the sky and declared loudly:
“Formation, disperse!”
Before her words faded, the formation flashed and vanished without a trace.
“Hahaha… Little girl, your time has come!”
Seeing the formation disappear, the true demon threw his head back and laughed, his voice filled with arrogance.
However.
In the next moment, the smile on his face froze abruptly.
Because, to his horror, he discovered a swirling pattern of black and white shooting into the sky, tearing through his blood-red demonic cloud and expanding at a visible speed.
What… what is this?!
A sinking feeling gripped the true demon’s heart. He quickly mobilized his blood aura, attempting to suppress this strange black-and-white light.
The blood aura surged wildly, trying to crush the black-and-white light, but soon, the black-and-white light expanded even faster, completely unaffected.
“Roar!”
He let out a furious roar, sweeping his white jade bone spear toward the black-and-white light. A deafening explosion echoed across the sky, blood waves rolled, and the entire mountain peak instantly collapsed. The ground cracked everywhere, as if the world was ending, sending chills down everyone’s spine.
Clang!
A crisp clashing sound rang out.
The white jade bone spear was sent flying out of the chaotic scene, embedding itself into a distant mountain. The immense force of the impact shattered the entire peak in an instant!
Immediately after, the black-and-white pattern broke through the surging blood waves, rushing toward him with a howl.
“Damn it! What is this thing?!”
The demon was utterly terrified. He had never encountered such a situation before. He even suspected that his body might be completely obliterated by this black-and-white light!
