Chapter 4040: Platform
The Bear King was the first to charge over.
On the city wall, the Sea City King smirked coldly. All the cities of the human race had defenses laid out by Divine Rain Venerate, especially the Imperial Capital, which was not something that a True Self Tier could break through at all.
As expected, when the Bear King approached, a flash of light slashed out from within the city.
Pu, even someone as strong as the Bear King was. .h.i.t. His chest was struck, and blood spurted out madly.
“Hahaha!” Sea City King sneered, “Ignorance!”
This was practically courting death, and he still dared to think of fighting his way into the city?
When the Demon Kings saw this, they all frowned. The defenses of the humans had not weakened at all. This time, they would return empty-handed again.
At this time, the Bear King had also been saved. His face was pale like a piece of golden paper, which was very frightening.
“Don’t retreat!” Yet the Bear King spoke up, “I can feel that the might of that Spirit Tool has weakened considerably. Otherwise, my injuries would probably be a few times worse.”
“Really?” All the Demon Kings perked up.
“If anyone doesn’t believe me, then battle me for 300 rounds!” The Bear King stood up with great difficulty, brandis.h.i.+ng its twin hammers, looking incredibly rough.
“All right, we will continue to besiege them!” All the Demon Kings nodded, and decided not to retreat.
Seeing the Demon Race encircle and not attack, the humans on the city wall were all slightly puzzled.
This was illogical.
Human prodigies such as Lu Qi and Feng Jixing also appeared on the city wall, wearing puzzled expressions.
The natives here had already battled countless times, and it could be said that they knew each other very well. However, the present battle situation was illogical. That must be because of the outsiders, which had led to a variable.
What on earth were these people trying to do?
After the Demonic Beasts surrounded the city for a while, they launched an attack from afar to test the might of the city defense.
Hong! Hong! Hong!
Multiple attacks were launched, but the Spirit Tool in the city would channel on its own every time, slas.h.i.+ng out fierce light, completely destroying all the attacks that a.s.saulted it.
One day, two days, three days, and by the fourth day, everyone shockingly discovered that the light that was shot out was gradually becoming weaker. Some attacks had been intercepted, yet did not disintegrate. They still shot over, and blasted onto the city walls, causing considerable damage.
“Great!” The members of the Demon Race all cheered, and the expressions of the generals and soldiers of the Galewind Nation changed drastically.
After so many years, this was the first time that they discovered that the precious treasure that guarded the city would actually be useless one day.
“Boys, fight for me, make the barrage even fiercer!” All the Demon Kings roared loudly. Even the Bear King had returned. He had already recovered sixty to seventy percent, and was completely capable of fighting again.
It could be clearly seen that the city-guarding Spirit Tool was becoming weaker and weaker, and the power of the light it shot out was becoming weaker and weaker, causing even more attacks to land on the city walls, and also caused the city walls to sway slightly.
“Prepare to charge!” the great Demon Kings all shouted. The obsessions of their ancestors and fathers were finally about to be fulfilled in their hands.
In the end, the city-guarding treasure was completely useless, and no more streak of light slashed out.
“Charge!”
Instantly, the Demonic Race launched an a.s.sault. Thousands of Demonic Beasts charged towards the city wall. This was really a stampede of ten thousand beasts. Hong long long, the ground was wailing, raising clouds of dust that covered the skies.
Xiu, xiu, xiu! On the city wall, countless crossbow bolts shot down, turning into a rain of
arrows.
“Mere tricks!” The Horse King soared into the skies, turning into a ma.s.sive pegasus. It opened its mouth and spat out a screen of light, which instantly blocked all the arrows that filled the skies.
“Horse King, let me fight you!” Sea City King also shot into the skies, and began a fierce battle with Horse King.
In the human race, more and more elites appeared. The Demon Race had already launched an all-out offensive. At this time, no one could just sit by and watch. Even the Emperor of the Galewind Nation, Bai Xiangming, had also stepped into battle. His battle prowess was incredibly powerful, and he actually managed to block two Demon Kings by himself.
It should be known that the individual battle prowess of the Demon Race was superior to the human race. Usually, only the Demon King would be able to fight one against two, or even in fact, against three, but this Bai Xiangming was actually capable of being so strong?
Ling Han looked at him for a while, and realization dawned on him.
It wasn’t that Bai Xiangming was powerful, but rather that the Battle Armor he was wearing was a high-grade precious tool that had boosted his astonis.h.i.+ng power, allowing him to possess such awesome battle prowess.
Was this left behind by Divine Rain Venerate?
But even if Bai Xiangming was so strong, faced with this vast army of Demon Race, he was still unable to turn the situation around.
There were too many Demonic Beasts. He would have to block at least ten of them to be able to balance out the battle prowess of the True Self Tier elites on both sides. However, this was
obviously unrealistic.
Thus, the human race was slowly being defeated.
The outsiders all knew their limits. In this kind of situation, they naturally had to prioritize self-preservation. They had no reason or position to risk their lives.
After less than half a day, the human race was routed.
Bai Xiangming had no choice but to surrender.
“Hand over the Sky Opening Axe!” the Demonic Beasts shouted one after another. They naturally hoped to obtain the inheritance of Divine Rain Venerate, and they also thought that
they were the true heirs of Divine Rain Venerate.
The Bai Clan? Hehe, they were just the culprits.
Bai Xiangming shook his head, and said, “I only know where the Sky Opening Axe is, but I
can’t pick it up.”
True, if he could pick it up, he would have long since obtained the inheritance of Venerate Divine Rain Venerate. Could there still be so many things going on?
All the Demon Kings escorted Bai Xiangming to find the Sky Opening Axe. The outsiders
followed him, one after another. Whether it was the humans or the Demon Race, this was a battle that had nothing to do with them. Their only purpose was to obtain the inheritance of Divine Rain Venerate.
The Demon Kings knew that these outsiders had astonis.h.i.+ng backgrounds, so they didn’t
press them.
It wasn’t long before they arrived at the foot of a tall mountain behind the Imperial Palace. Bai Xiangming activated several layers of formations, and finally, a platform with a radius of around 21 meters appeared before them. In the middle of the platform, a short-handled axe had struck the platform.
“That is the Sky Opening Axe?” All the Demon Kings’ eyes were burning, and the eyes of the outsiders lit up as well.
This was related to the inheritance of a Venerate Tier elite, and may even be related to the
Imperial Technique.
“That’s right.” Bai Xiangming nodded, “However, to say nothing of picking up the axe, there are not many that can even walk to the front of the Sky Opening Axe.”
“Ha, I don’t believe it!” The Bear King immediately jumped out. He was really an impatient person. Previously, he dared to charge even against the city-guarding Spirit Tool, what more
now.
However, he had just rushed onto the platform, when his figure immediately slowed down. His whole face was wrinkled, as if he was using all his might. Even so, after taking a few steps,
he could no longer move.
“Old Bear, what’s going on?” a Demon King asked.
The Bear King did not answer. Instead, Bai Xiangming spoke up, and said, “The gravity fields on this platform are incredibly terrifying. Furthermore, due to the change in cultivation level,
the higher the cultivation level, the greater the gravity fields.”
So that was the case.
At this moment, the outsiders were all rubbing their fists in antic.i.p.ation. Under such conditions, the True Self Tier elites wouldn’t be able to gain any advantage at all, and they
would have a chance.
The Demonic Beasts refused to give up, and they all leaped onto the platform. They were much stronger than humans at the same cultivation level, so there was no reason that they couldn’t do the same.
However, these Demon Kings had only rushed forward a few steps, when they were defeated
just like the Bear King.
“Hahaha!”
The outsiders roared with laughter as they entered the arena.
