Chapter 221: Formless Otherworldly Demons, Ashes Under the Spirit Flames!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In the sky above Zhulu County.
Demonic energy was dense, and the powerful cyclone instantly twisted into a huge vortex. It was chaotic and hazy, and the naked eye could not see what was inside.
It was menacing, as if it was going to smash down at the next moment.
The sky above was split by the vortex, and Zhulu County became two distinct worlds.
“This is strange. They always attacked the city directly. I’ve never seen something so strange before!”
“I’m so scared. I’m going to hide in the cellar!”
People did not dare to speak loudly, and even their breathing became very careful.
However, the children could only wail to resist the fear brought by the demonic energy under such a pressing aura.
“Waah!”
When a child cried, the other ones followed suit.
“I don’t want to die. I haven’t inherited the totem pillars’ divine powers yet! I don’t want to die…”
“All you know is to cry!” The adults hurriedly covered the children’s mouths and scolded them softly. “Don’t you know that the Otherworldly Demons are most sensitive to sound?”
The children’s faces were filled with tears, but they still resisted the urge to cry. They buried their heads in the adults’ arms and sobbed softly.
After all, the adults were more mature. No matter how mystifying the other party was, they were just Otherworldly Demons.
The demons had different forms and destructive powers, but the human warriors’ divine rune powers were no longer the same as before.
After a month of communication with the totem pillars and Gu Changqing’s training, they had developed a better method to deal with the Otherworldly Demons.
“The food has already been taken into the city. Even if we endure for a year and a half, there’s nothing to be afraid of!”
“Yes. The power of my green dragon totem is hundreds of times stronger than before. I can definitely kill the Otherworldly Demons with a bow and arrow!”
“All the humans, except for the elderly and children, are warriors. They can come if they want. What’s there to be afraid of?”
“Yes! If one comes, I’ll kill one. If two come, I’ll kill two!”
The vortex spun faster and faster, and almost all the aura in the space outside the city was driven by it. Demonic wind began to blow on the ground.
Chi Shu ran into the city and saw the human warriors gathered under the whirlpool. His throat tightened.
He thought for a moment and made the arrangements step by step.
“All the elders and children, hide in the cellar. The other warriors, guard the city according to the plan!”
Although he said that, he was actually not confident.
This was because this spatial vortex was too big and the pressure was too strong.
In addition, the treacherous demonic energy flowed rapidly in the middle, adding a little more terrifying aura.
“County Lord is right. We can always beat back the Otherworldly Demons if we keep the same!”
“We obtained the totems’ divine powers. This power is a magic treasure to deal with the Otherworldly Demons. With this treasure in hand, what are we afraid
“Use all your strength to protect Zhulu County!”
Chi Shu retracted his gaze and clenched his fists tightly. The last trace of doubt in his eyes suddenly disappeared, and he looked at the warriors with high fighting spirit with determination!
“Good! All warriors of Zhulu City, listen up. The time to test you has come! We are fighting for the future of the human race. Kill them!”
Chi Shu faced the crowd that was rubbing their fists and shouted loudly.
After saying that, he realized that their eyes lit up as they looked behind him.
He turned his head and only then did he see that Gu Changqing had walked over at some unknown time.
At this moment, the latter was looking at the vortex in the distant sky with a cold expression and did not say a word.
However, Chi Shu clearly felt that his appearance expressed more than a thousand words.
One of the soldiers said bluntly, “With His Excellency the Star Emperor here,
Zhulu County will be able to win another beautiful battle!”
“Yes! This time, we won’t let the Otherworldly Demons get close to the city walls!”
Chi Shu also had an illusion. When he followed Gu Changqing’s line of sight and looked at the vortex, the fear in his heart actually disappeared without a trace.
After a long time, the spatial vortex opened like a gate, and countless black dots fell like rain.
“The Otherworldly Demons are here. Everyone, get ready!”
Chi Shu shouted with his eyes wide open.
Gu Changqing narrowed his eyes.
The Otherworldly Demon that appeared in his line of sight was quite different from what he had imagined.
All the demons that Gu Changqing had cleaned up some time ago were grotesque and extremely abstract.
However, the ones he saw now looked more like clusters of grayish-black matter. He could not tell what they looked like at all.
The Otherworldly Demons howled as they flew toward Zhulu City, gradually changing their forms.
Some of them that were originally clumps had turned into animals.
On the other hand, some also became indistinguishable abstract objects, while others became hazy human figures.
Gu Changqing understood something in his heart.
Otherworldly Demons were originally formless beings. However, they would imitate the form of all things they came into contact with to gain a figure.
Moreover, as the environment changed and their strengths changed, they would constantly transform and perfect their forms.
The current Otherworldly Demons only simulated a portion of the forms of all things that they came into contact with. That was why there were all kinds of strange and abstract beings.
In Gu Changqing’s era, the few demons he encountered had already undergone countless years of evolution before they formed their appearance. Seeing that they were about to attack the city, Gu Changqing did not react.
Chi Shu gritted his teeth and thought, “It’s time for the human warriors to show themselves. If they can’t even deal with such an enemy, how can they talk about protecting the human race? If Gu Changqing still needs to act in front of them, then the human race will be too useless!”
Thinking of this, he was about to raise his arms and shout to encourage everyone.
But unexpectedly, Gu Changqing’s body suddenly erupted with an earth-shattering aura.
The earth trembled, and the dark clouds in the sky swirled.
The Otherworldly Demons in the sky looked as if they were facing a great enemy.
On Gu Changqing’s forehead, the Spirit Flame mark shone. Endless Spirit Flames slowly spread.
Swish!
A clear phoenix cry resounded through the world.
The entire world was instantly covered in wails. In contrast, Zhulu County’s people were ecstatic.
“He’s too powerful!”
“This is awesome! Let’s see who dares to attack our Zhulu County again!”
“With His Excellency the Star Emperor here, we can rest easy!”
Roar!
On Gu Changqing’s wrist, the black dragon roared.
His body that was tens of thousands of feet tall stood on the ground, and his blue eyes glared at the vortex in the sky as he roared.
Xiao Hei and the phoenixes coordinated with each other and continued to kill the Otherworldly Demons in the sky.
Countless of their souls were burned by the Spirit Flame. Then, they would be burned to ashes by Xiao Hei’s breath.
Very soon, the Otherworldly Demons that blotted out the sky were almost all slaughtered.
Gu Changqing stood in the air and waited quietly, waiting for the real enemy in the spatial vortex to appear..
