Chapter 132 Death Descent
The s.p.a.ce fissure Demon King Samael ripped open directly connected the Abyss Outpost to the Heaven Outpost.
When the demon army poured out of the void like a flood, the angel army on the other side blew the horn of the war. Amid the sound of the horn, a large number of angel soldiers in golden armor flapped their wings and charged at the demon army!
The moment the two sides collided, countless amounts of purple and golden blood splattered!
The angels were well-trained and disciplined warriors, and even ordinary angel warriors were stronger than low-rank demons. They waved their lances and slashed at the demon army, easily tearing the bodies of their opponents. But there were simply too many low-rank demons as the vanguard. Even though the angels were killing their compatriots, they still pounced on the angels fearlessly. It only took a few low-rank demons to pounce together to pull an angel soldier down from the air. When the angel soldiers landed, the demons would bite them with their mouths full of fangs and saliva, tearing the bodies of the angels, enjoying the pleasure of killing in their screams.
At the rear of the angel army, countless golden lightning b.a.l.l.s fired. These were the energy bolts that the other angel soldiers shot with their lances. Although these golden lightning b.a.l.l.s killed many demons, it did not help at all. Soon, more demons filled the gaps.
The moment Roy rushed out of the fissure, he saw the scene of the angel’s vanguard being overwhelmed by the demon army. The individual combat strength of an angel might be stronger than that of a demon, but the disparity between their numbers was far too great. The entire front was constantly advancing toward the angel’s White City.
In the sky, a high-rank demon opened his demon wings and flew in the air. He laughed sinisterly, waved his ax, and pointed in front of him. “Hahaha! Just charge in like this and completely destroy that hateful city of light!” Many middle-rank demons beside Roy rushed forward as well. With the appearance of the middle-rank demons, a lot of magic appeared on the battlefield. Flames appeared in the sky and enveloped the angels like heavy rain. These flames ignited the wings of the angels, burning them into flaming people, and then they fell amid screams.

At the same time, the demons suffered the retaliation of the angels. A large number of golden pillars of light descended from the sky, and the demons within the pillars of light all had their skin and flesh lacerated, making terrible cries before turning into ashes under the holy power.
Roy discovered that even the souls of these demons killed by holy power could not escape. In other words, they would not be able to resurrect in the Abyss even with the protection of the Ouroborus Mark. Similarly, once angels were killed, their souls would immediately be devoured by the demons nearby and could not be retrieved!
This was the true meaning of the sworn enemies. Both sides could completely annihilate the souls of the other side…
Roy spread his wings and flew in the air. He took advantage of his high-speed flying to carefully avoid the areas with the golden pillars of light. He knew that the most important thing in such a battle was to protect himself. Looking at the current situation, the angels would not be able to stop the demon army for long. If he wanted to enjoy the fruits of victory, he had to persevere in the battle.
However, although he did not take the initiative to find an opponent, one took the initiative to find him. An angel soldier wearing golden armor and a full-face helmet swung his lance and killed a demon in front of him. He looked up and saw Roy flying past him, so he did not even think about it before he flapped his wings, rushed up, and charged at Roy with a stab!
Roy stretched out his hand, and Frostmourne emerged from the void. He held the hilt of his sword and blocked the opponent’s sudden stab.

The angel soldier was charging fiercely just now and could not stop his charge. When he pa.s.sed by Roy, Roy slashed his arm!
Golden blood spurted out, and the angel soldier screamed. He turned back and slashed his lance at Roy.
The two struck and blocked each other in the air, and the collisions of their weapons made loud clangs. But with the battle in the background, these sounds did not even cause any ripples.
After another collision, Roy mustered all his strength and sent the angel soldier flying. Then he quickly waved Frostmourne and threw out two Icebound Strikes. The angel soldier reacted quickly and immediately adjusted his body after being sent flying. He shot out golden lightning from his lance to block an Icebound Strike, but the other one directly hit his wings.
The Icebound Strike did not tear his wings off but instead exploded, instantly freezing his wings. The angel soldier could not flap his wings to maintain his balance and immediately fell headfirst. Roy flapped his wings, swooped down, and pierced Frostmourne into the angel soldier’s chest in midair!
However, the angel soldier was still alive. With blood spewing out from his mouth, he pointed his palm at Roy and shouted, “Die, demon!”
Roy raised his head. The holy light blasted out from the angel soldier’s palm grazed his demon horns and flew into the sky!
The next second, Roy’s tail pierced through the angel soldier’s chest from below, ending his life…
With the angel soldier’s body, Roy fell onto the clouds. He drew out Frostmourne from his opponent, stretched out his hand, and stored the angel soldier’s soul.
Taking a moment to look, Roy found that he got a low-cla.s.s holy soul!
This meant that the rank of these angel soldiers was not high. In Araniya’s inherited memories, angels were divided into nine levels according to the number of wings. There were three levels for two-winged angels, which were, from low to high, angel, archangel, and princ.i.p.ality. Four-winged angels also had three levels, which were power, virtue, and dominion. And the three levels of six-winged angels were throne, cherub, and seraph. These three spheres and nine orders were the so-called hierarchy of angels, showing that Heaven also had a strict hierarchy.
When fighting against angels, you usually judged their strength by looking at their number of wings. This angel soldier was at most at the princ.i.p.ality level. He was very powerful when fighting against low-rank demons, but with Roy’s current strength, it had been relatively easy to deal with him.
However, you had to pay special attention to their att.i.tudes in combat. Some high-level angels would put away their extra wings when they were not fighting with all their might because more wings were just symbols of strength, which was not convenient in daily life. It was the same for demons. Some high-rank demons and demon lords would grow more wings after promotion. Six wings were not unique to angels, and demons had them as well. However, for the convenience of normal actions, some demons would also choose to retract their wings. After killing this angel soldier, Roy roughly knew the power of angels. He was a top-middle-rank demon, and the ones he could deal with were probably the second sphere power and virtue angels. But it would be a little difficult for him to deal with a dominion angel because angels were stronger than demons at the same rank…
At this moment, the sky was already burning red with the flames of the demons. With the middle-rank and high-rank demons joining the battle, all kinds of large-scale killing spells raged on the battlefield. Under these circ.u.mstances, Roy did not rashly use his frost magic because the effect would probably not be very good, so he simply flew in the air and specially looked for ordinary angels soldiers with two wings.
In fact, in addition to looking at their wings to distinguish between the strength of angels, you could also look at their equipment. Those wearing the same standard armor were definitely low-level angels, and those with more magnificent equipment were naturally stronger angels. In this world where appearance was everything, let alone h.e.l.l, even Heaven was the same… After killing three more angels, Roy found that the demon camp was about to push toward the city gates of the White City. Although the angels did their best to resist, the disparity in numbers was too great, and they could only retreat again and again.

Even Roy could tell that Heaven’s war preparations seemed to be lacking…
What Roy did not know was that his guess was right this time. In this battle, Heaven’s goal was only to destroy the Abyss Outpost, meaning that their target was only demons. But it was different for demons. Not only did the demons want to defeat the angel army, but they also planned to destroy the human world below. In order to deal with these two goals at the same time, the war preparations of the demons were naturally much better.
This city in the clouds, the White City, was built in the sky, but it was actually in another s.p.a.ce. The clouds that could be stepped on were actually just held up by the power of s.p.a.ce. After finding that the battle was turning unfavorable, the angels realized that letting the demons run among the clouds was very disadvantageous for them. Therefore, just as the demons were about to attack the city, the angels suddenly removed the spatial power surrounding the White City!
The consequences were immediately a little serious. Many demons could not fly, so once the clouds could no longer support them, they immediately fell!
But many demons grabbed the angels fighting them when they fell and entangled them tightly, causing the angels to fall with them.
And below the clouds was the human world of this world, Earth…
The angels and demons entangled and left the s.p.a.ce of the city in the clouds. They suddenly appeared in the atmosphere of Earth and fell toward the ground under the influence of gravity. In this process, due to friction with the atmosphere, their bodies immediately ignited with blazing flames and thick smoke as they crashed toward the surface of Earth at high speed.
A meteor shower with hundreds of thousands of meteors suddenly appeared in the sky above Earth…
When the fighting angels and demons moved the war to the ground of the human world in unison, the true Judgement Day for humans came…
