Chapter 863 - Fighting A Rank 9 G.o.d
"Three Purities Slas.h.!.+"
The sword bent s.p.a.ce and burned it, creating a powerful shock wave on par coming from the one next to them.
"What is this?!" The elder sweatdropped as he never expected to have someone of this caliber sneak inside their house like this. The opponent was clearly a Rank 10 G.o.d, but the attack exceeded his own strongest attack. That was why he couldn"t understand the enemies.
Still, the thing that shocked him the most was the fact that none of the enemies was a devil.
"A human?" The elder furrowed his eyebrows, trying to deflect this Sword Wave, but Alicia noticed this and clapped her hand.
"Frozen Myth." The surroundings suddenly froze before creating an ice mountain from left and right, trying to stop the elder from deflecting the sword.
"Kh… No!" The elder shouted unwillingly, but he had no choice other than blocking these attacks from left and right because he might be killed the moment he got stuck inside the ices.
He moved his body slightly to the left and let Alex cut his right arm. He was very decisive.
Even so, Alex spun his body and kicked him because the devil was about to spat out something from his mouth. Considering his ident.i.ty, it was obviously a poison.
He blew the elder away, watching how the elder stopped the bleeding and took out another sword while looking at the two.
"Who are you?!" He shouted, creating a loud noise that echoed all over the town. In addition, with how the building collapsed, the town focused immediately changed to him.
The devils saw how their Rank 9 G.o.d and Rank 10 G.o.d lost their arms before they knew it and found the three offenders. Obviously, the three people must be G.o.d Rank Experts themselves, but they were not scared.
"O" my mighty Green Devil Tribe. All a.s.semble and kill these three b.a.s.t.a.r.ds. I will create an opening for all of you to kill them, and I believe we can start the compet.i.tion right now. Hereby I announce that the one who has the biggest contribution will become the leader." The elder shouted.
The devils were stunned for a second, but they immediately roared, taking out of their weapons and preparing themselves to kill G.o.d Rank Expert. No matter how hard it was to kill a Rank 10 G.o.d with their mortal body, they might still beat them with this number.
Even the original candidates of this leader compet.i.tion immediately left their house and rose to the sky.
"There will be another adjustment to the plan." Alex glanced at his surroundings and sighed. He had asked Ilumi to hide for a bit but realized it would be better to ambush them together. And looking at how ten people alongside their few hundred followers standing in the air really made him rethink his plan.
Three figures suddenly appeared this time. Anna carried her scythe and summoned her b.u.t.terflies while smiling at those coming from the north.
Leoz and Jeanne also raised their weapons and released their Divine Energy, creating a triangle formation to prevent these ten people from helping them.
Alicia suddenly clasped her hand and raised it as an array appeared. "Activate!"
A circle of light shot to the sky, covering them with an invisible barrier. Without anyone saying it, it was surely a Special Realm, considering Alex"s s.p.a.ce Element and the array. In other words, the enemies were planning to defeat them with only their small group.
Alex looked around and found more than one thousand Martial Saints, but he thought nothing of it and focused on his objectives before restarting the battle with the old devil.
"You want to kill me? In your dream." He snorted and released his Firebirds, raining them down in all directions.
*Boom Boom Boom!*
"Ah!"
"No!"
A series of explosions followed by crying sounds from devils filled the city. The elder gritted his teeth and shouted. "Stop it!"
Although this looked random, Nelson took this as a mark that Alex gave to hunt the poisons.
The elder also thought nothing because he didn"t know about Alex"s Spirit Eyes and charged at Alex to stop him from killing the weaker devils.
At the same time, Anna, Leoz, and Jeanne had started killing the devils that tried to charge at them. With their overwhelming power, it was an easy task.
They avoided most of the attacks from those thousands of devils while killing a few at a time, decreasing their number safely.
Screams and wailings echoed continuously, bleeding the elder"s heart.
"You b.a.s.t.a.r.d!" The elder gritted his teeth and struck Alex with his sword.
He blocked the sword with his own Divine Sword but soon realized his strength was inferior to him.
*Bang!*
Alex flew away because of the force.
Alicia saw this and created a sphere of ice, freezing the air and turning them into two mountains. This was the same move earlier, but she infused more Divine Energy into it.
The two mountains tried to crush him, but the elder simply waved his sword, blasting the two mountains with a shock wave alone.
"You could hit me because you took me by surprise! In a head-on confrontation like this, you won"t be able to defeat me!" The elder snorted.
"You talk too much." Alex appeared right after the elder blew the mountains away. He swung his sword, only to find it was blocked by the elder. Still, he smiled upon this and channeled his Spiritual Energy.
"One Inch Spear."
"!!!" The elder saw the flash and retreated back, feeling something dangerous from it. His blood flowed out as he noticed that the technique managed to graze his cheek.
"I have calculated everything. Even if you do everything you can, you won"t be able to live to see tomorrow." Alex smiled and pointed his sword toward the elder.
"Do you think I have not done my own preparation?!" The elder snorted as he raised his hand, shooting a green firework. "Go!"
Alex narrowed his eyes and looked at the town, wondering what his plan was, but a devil suddenly appeared near him covered in sweat. "Elder… We couldn"t find any poison."
"What?!" The elder widened his eyes.
Alex smiled at this point. "Haha… Go? Do you mean, go kill yourself?"
"You b.a.s.t.a.r.d!" The elder couldn"t understand why there was no poison. Although it was normal to think it was Alex"s scheme, they should be able to find some.
It was at this time he remembered when Alex first rained the city with his fire. He had spread the poison all over the town to ambush the enemies from all directions as well as to take a precaution that the enemy knew about some of them.
However, he could never imagine there was someone who could identify all of them. The elder looked at Alex like looking at his archenemy. "You… You are the one…"
"Hehe… I have prepared everything as well." Alex made a smug smile before two people appeared next to him.
Both of them were Rank 10 G.o.d.
The elder couldn"t understand how so many Rank 10 G.o.ds gathered in this city, and they all reported to the person before him.
"Master. We have destroyed everything." Nelson nodded.
"You… You are not a devil! But why are you attacking us? We have never had a conflict before!" The elder gritted his teeth.
"Directly? No. But I have once almost lost my wife because of your Green Devil Poison." Alex narrowed his eyes, looking at the snake next to the elder. He could see that the Green Devil Poison that almost killed Alicia came from the snake beside him. In other words, the elder was the one creating this poison.
But considering he was also a successor of someone, it would be either him or the previous master of this snake poison technique. Nonetheless, the flame of hatred would cover his heart as long as this threat remained alive.
Even if it meant getting too much bad karma, he found it was worth it.
"Green Devil Poison?"
Alex thought for a moment and decided to get some information from him, so he told him a few clues. "Hmph! You might not remember it, but your world once invaded our home to get Sun Moon Seed! Only because of that, some of the Green Devil Poison were left behind and almost killed my wife. Even if we don"t have any direct conflict, I won"t let such a thing spread."
"Sun Moon Seed?!" The elder widened his eyes, never expecting to hear that from Alex. He was only a child at that time and his master, the previous wielder of this Poison Art, gave him the Green Devil Poison. And he somehow partic.i.p.ated in the invasion.
It was a true pleasure for a little boy like him to see so many people die because of the poison. It gave him a sense of importance.
Unfortunately, whether it was intentional or unintentional, it also became his doom, no, the entire tribe doom.
"No… Impossible… I have sworn to protect this tribe with everything I have, but to think I bring an enemy like this unintentionally!" The elder gritted his teeth.
"So, you are the one!" Alex"s face turned dark as he charged toward the devil.
"Tch!" The elder clicked his tongue and faced Alex.
"One Inch Spear."
"Heavenly Poison Blade."
The two clashed, creating a shockwave that somehow blew a few buildings.
Alex then stepped the air while clas.h.i.+ng like this, creating an invisible pressure that tried to crush the devil.
"Ha!" The devil released a portion of his Divine Energy to scatter the pressure away and used the residual energy to break free from Alex before waving his sword again, releasing a few sharps green blades.
An ice wall formed in front of Alex and stopped the blades, albeit the blue ice turned green and slowly melted.
It showed how toxic the poison blades were.
"One Inch Spear."
A red light flashed as the next second that light cut the wall. It was also long enough to reach the elder. Alex had tested the range, and he was surprised to see it could stretch for over three hundred meters despite named as One Inch Spear. Although it was because of the condition, it was still too crazy as a comparison.
"…" The elder raised his sword and blocked this, but the light was stronger than he expected. It spun his body.
Alex then appeared before the elder and waved his sword, blowing the elder to the ground.
*Bam!*
"Elder!" The younger devil shouted even though his body was covered with wounds.
Ilumi seemed to have finished her battle with this distraction as she emerged from behind and sent the devil"s head flying.
The elder gritted his teeth, looking at Ilumi and Alex with hatred. Because Alex grabbed his attention from the beginning, he didn"t check Ilumi"s cultivation. But to think she was a Rank 7 G.o.d. It was completely beyond his imagination.
"Master, I have finished my task." Ilumi nodded.
"Good job. You can help the four over there."
Ilumi agreed and helped them, but she didn"t head over them. Instead, she made sure to stay near Alex and Alicia to protect them at any given time according to what she said back then.
"There must be a misunderstanding between us. If you hate us because of the poison that I unintentionally brought, please let the tribe go and just kill me." The elder looked at Alex with a tired expression.
"Elder!" The tribe was moved by the elder"s sincerity as they were filled with rage to see the elder"s condition right now.
Alex narrowed his eyes and snorted. "There is still a chance of that poison being spread, so I am not going to spare a single Green Devil. After all, poison is one of the most dangerous weapons in the world as it can kill someone without them noticing it. And I wouldn"t want to have an invisible enemy like that."
"You…" The elder gritted his teeth and raised his hand, summoning a green snake. "If you want it that way, I will kill you!"
"Green Devil Poison Illusory Snake!"
