Chapter 444 Fire Refinement Star Cauldron
The gap between the two parties closed-75 kilometers, 70 kilometers, 65 kilometers…
The demon team and the human team rapidly approached each other. To Holy Lady Strings, she felt like the number of threads released by the Nine Lives Coc.o.o.n was limited. Furthermore, the further they were from her, the harder it would be to control them. She determined that a distance of 50 kilometers was optimal.
“Let them get close,” said Holy Lady Strings via voice transmission. “However, King Thousand Wood’s Magic Awl is extremely terrifying. We can’t let them come within 25 kilometers. Therefore… attack when we are 35 kilometers away.”
“Alright,” replied Demon Monarch Coldmoon calmly.
“Haha, even if human Regis G.o.dfiends reach the Grotto-Heaven realm, they can only unleash their full strength when they are within a range of five kilometers. If they try to attack from 35 kilometers? They pose almost zero threat to us,” said Patriarch Poison Dragon via voice transmission as he laughed. “I have an undying body. Sister Coldmoon is also an illusory lifeform. Strings, you are especially good at long-range attacks. With the three of us working together, we can attack our enemies with our strengths. We can easily crush them before they reach us.”
Boom
The raging fire domain protected the five G.o.dfiends as they rapidly approached.
The moment the distance between them shrank to 35 kilometers
“Attack,” said Holy Lady Strings via voice transmission.
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
A large number of void spider threads were unable to penetrate the flame domain, but at that moment, the faint runes on the threads’ surface glowed, allowing them to penetrate the flame domain instantly.
These threads were extremely tough. The flames were unable to burn through them.
The golden flames burned fiercely as they surged in all directions. They also attacked the Nine Lives Coc.o.o.n threads. The Nine Lives Coc.o.o.n threads continued attacking the G.o.dfiends despite the impact forcing it back.
Not good. King Molten’s expression changed. Demon Monarch Strings is so powerful.
Clang! Clang! Clang! King Northcleanse—who was standing beside King Molten-was clad in silver armor. He stretched out his palm, and 13 tiny divine swords flew out from his palm. After they flew out, the divine swords naturally grew larger. The 13 divine swords scattered to form a sword formation—which protected the area around them. The five G.o.dfiends tried their best to block the Nine Lives Coc.o.o.n threads. Under the obstruction of the array formation, more than half of them were blocked.
However, there were too many Nine Lives Coc.o.o.n threads. All of them were extraordinary in strength, so some of them still managed to penetrate the obstruction.
The fire domain and the 13 sword formation were unable to block the threads completely.
“Forest World.” King Thousand Wood waved his hand, and wooden columns appeared around him-which naturally formed an array formation. Countless branches grew out from each wooden pillar as they intertwined with each other. They constantly lashed out at each of the Nine Lives Coc.o.o.n threads that pa.s.sed by.
King Thousand Wood had a sixth-level Essence Soul, and Two World Island highly valued him. Although Two World Island couldn’t give him a Tribulation treasure, they still gave him an Imperial Lord-level array formation treasure. With King Thousand Wood’s cultivation and technique realm, his strength was extraordinary.
Huh? Holy Lady Strings frowned slightly. The attack failed?
She originally believed that once she attacked with the tribulation treasure—Nine Lives Coc.o.o.n-it would have a chance of killing a G.o.dfiend.
However, the fire domain weakened nearly half of the Nine Lives Coc.o.o.n threads. The sword formation blocked more than half of the remaining threads. In fact, the remaining threads’ strength was already attenuated. Due to this reduction in strength, the threads were unable to break through the Forest World array formation. “I thought we had to hide in the Fire Refinement Star Cauldron.” King Molten smiled when he saw this. He couldn’t move or do anything to the cauldron if G.o.dfiends were hiding in it. Likewise, the G.o.dfiends within the cauldron could only hide.
Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+
The poisonous, churning black water attacked.
“Be careful.” King Transcendence’s expression changed slightly.
A shadow suddenly descended and appeared beside King Thousand Wood in the fire domain, stabbing right at his head. Although the wooden column attempted to block the blow, the distance between the two was just too short.
“Roar!” King Gu Eyes beside King Thousand Wood opened his mouth and struck the sword with his tongue.
The tongue was as fast as lightning.
Bam!
The sword was sent flying.
The tongue wrapped around the shadow, only for it to dissipate.
“Brother Gu Eyes, thank you,” said King Thousand Wood.
“The sect ordered me to protect you well.” At that moment, King Gu Eyes’s head had become ugly and huge. Countless protruding toad heads appeared, but in the blink of an eye, he returned to his normal human appearance.
His body had long been modified. He was a powerful Worm King.
Before the demons invaded Two World Island, Two World Island had been suppressed by Black Sand Grotto-Heaven for a long time. This caused many G.o.dfiends in Two World Island to have distorted mental states. In order to become stronger, they had gathered many evil formulas. The Worm King transformation was very evil and cruel, but after succeeding, one’s combat strength would soar tremendously. In contrast to their past behavior, the G.o.dfiends from Two World Island had calmed down over the past 800 years.
“Humph.” King Transcendence’s figure had already entered the shadow world. Everyone present had a keen perception of the void. They could vaguely sense two living beings in the shadow world.
One was King Transcendence, and the other was Demon Monarch Coldmoon.
“Humans can also modify themselves into a phantom lifeform.” Coldmoon looked at King Kong in surprise.
“Let’s see who’s more powerful?” King Transcendence sneered as he looked at his opponent and instantly charged at her. The two fought in the shadow world. Occasionally, they would split out shadows to sneak an attack. The terrifying aspect of phantom lifeforms was that they could travel through the shadow world and use their shadow clones to attack their enemy. Even if the shadow clone was destroyed, it didn’t result in any damage to the main body at all. However, as one’s cultivation level increased, experts could gradually enter the shadow world as well.
The poisonous black water blotted out the sky as it attempted to drown the human G.o.dfiends. However, it was burned by the fire domain, causing a colorful, poisonous gas to rise from the periphery of the fire domain constantly. The golden flames were the poison’s bane.
“My poison is being restrained. I can’t penetrate the fire domain at all,” said Patriarch Poison Dragon via voice transmission. “I’ll send my black water clone to charge in.”
Boom!
In the churning black water, black dragons took form. Each black dragon had terrifying might as they charged into the fire domain.
Although the fire domain burned them, the condensed black dragons could withstand it completely, not evaporating at all.
“With the Water Essence Bead, I’m much stronger in direct combat.” Patriarch Poison Dragon was rather confident of his strength. Previously, he had purely relied on his undying body and poison to deal with his enemies. His offensive means weren’t strong, but after being nurtured by the three Imperial Lords and being bestowed a Tribulation treasure that was extremely suitable for him—Water Essence Bead-his combat prowess had transformed.
Break!
The 13 sword formation moved.
The sword beams tore through the black dragons with terrifying might!
“The Thirteen Swordbanes are too powerful.” Patriarch Poison Dragon’s expression changed slightly. He could maintain the strength of nine black dragons, but there were Thirteen Swordbanes—these Swordbanes truly restrained the black water dragons.
“Well done.” A sharp glint flashed through Holy Lady Strings’s eyes.
Without the sword array’s obstruction, Holy Lady Strings could make her move.
The Forest World array formation still obstructed the Nine Lives Coc.o.o.n threads, but at that moment, the threads rapidly gathered and formed a white snake.
Boom!
After the numerous threads gathered, the giant white snake revealed tremendous might. It easily thrashed through the Forest World array formation and shot straight at King Thousand Wood. The demon monarchs had to kill King Thousand Wood—who had a sixth-level Essence Soul. The demons were most afraid of King True Martial and King Thousand Wood.
“Get lost.” A huge cauldron suddenly appeared in King Molten’s hand, one that was several times larger than himself. Golden flames constantly surged out from the cauldron.
Boom!
King Molten held the cauldron in his hand as his strike pierced through the void several kilometers away, striking the white snake.
The white snake was the amalgamation of more than half of the Tribulation treasure’sNine Lives Coc.o.o.n-threads. Holy Lady Strings put all her strength into that attack.
It was said that the Fire Refinement Star Cauldron was refined from an outer realm planet. It was most suitable for ‘smas.h.i.+ng’ opponents in head-on battles. However, King Molten had limited strength. He could only unleash a portion of the Tribulation treasure’s power. Even so, the strike was still extremely terrifying
Boom!
Due to the smash, the white snake exploded. The numerous threads scattered in all directions as they were blasted out of the fire domain by the violent flames.
“You only have one cauldron. Let’s see how many spots you can block.” Holy Lady Strings’s charming face contorted slightly. Numerous Nine Lives Coc.o.o.n threads gathered once again. This time, they formed three smaller white snakes.
