Chapter 6262 Vicious Means
At the critical moment, Ming Yu finally tore free from her seal. However, her face was slightly pale now. Escaping that seal had come at a price.
With his arm destroyed, the red-haired man let out a furious roar. Long Chen instantly sensed the fluctuating devil corpses on the ground stop moving.
Ming Yu had successfully interrupted the red-haired man’s divine ability, causing his expression to twist with fury.
At this moment, the void quivered. Numerous figures were rushing over, shaking the world with their immense devil qi.
Tens of thousands of experts appeared, the weakest possessing five hundred Sovereign flames, while the strongest two bore eight hundred Sovereign flames.
One was a golden-winged devil with golden horns, wielding a black spear. His Sovereign flames blazed as his devil qi spread endlessly. The other had two heads, his body radiating blood qi while he brandished a blood-colored demonic saber.
“Damn it, you came too late! I told you! The Heavenly Bat Sovereigness’s Dao-Fruit was the top priority! But you refused to listen!” the red-haired man bellowed, venting his fury on the reinforcements.
After Long Chen had damaged the scales, the red-haired man insisted on seizing the Dao-Fruit immediately. After all, the Shadow Devil Bat race was also fighting for it.
However, his allies were clinging to the old rules, slaughtering the nine heavens’ experts first. In their minds, once the scales healed and the experts of the nine heavens were expelled, they could fight for the legacies in peace.
As a result, the experts of the nine heavens were competing with the devils head-on and shattering what the latter had painstakingly guarded through countless openings of the battlefield.
Only then did the golden-winged devils realize the danger and scramble to protect their own legacies.
These reinforcements were also from the golden winged devil race, and they had gathered forces to help the red-haired man seize the Dao-Fruit.
Had they arrived earlier, with their protection, the red-haired man would have been able to activate his divine ability. Then, they would have essentially won. That was why he was seething with fury.
“Shut your mouth,” snapped the golden-horned man coldly. “We already gave you half of our elites and countless treasures, yet you couldn’t even suppress a declining race? We haven’t even held you accountable, but you dare to rage at us? Did someone strike you on the head?”
“You...!” The red-haired man was furious.
Before he could say anything more, Long Chen appeared in front of the devil heroic spirit fighting Huo Linger, striking its head.
Starlight erupted, and the devil’s body blew apart into a tide of black fog.
“This aura...” The golden-horned man’s expression suddenly darkened. “Bastard, it’s you!”
Once Long Chen’s aura erupted, this man instantly recognized him as the one who had ruined their race’s legacy.
Back then, Long Chen and Lei Yuner had accidentally stumbled upon the land where a nine star heir fell. After a bitter battle, the battlefield was left drenched in Long Chen’s Blood Qi.
The golden-horned man had arrived one step too late, finding only ruins. His rage that day had nearly driven him mad. The plans that had been set in motion countless years ago had been ruined by Long Chen.
“Brat, die!” the golden-horned man roared furiously.
Ignoring everyone else, he charged at Long Chen.
Meanwhile, the two-headed devil glanced at the red-haired man. With an ice-cold voice, he cursed, “Idiot. While our ancestors’ soul energy hasn’t dispersed, you know what must be done.”
Without waiting for a reply, he shot toward Ming Yu with his demonic saber.
“You...!” the red-haired man wanted to curse him, but the two-headed devil was already gone.
“You bastard, just you wait!” he snarled through clenched teeth.
The red-haired man had lost his left hand due to Ming Yu’s attack, and a strange law curled around the wound, preventing him from regenerating his left arm. For now, he had no way of forming seals.
Without any other option, he bit his right thumb and drew a blood diagram in midair. Just as the diagram formed, it exploded, and a strange ripple spread through the battlefield.
Following that, a ferocious aura erupted like a volcano, and clumps of black qi started to surge out from the corpses on the ground.
All of a sudden, a seven-hundred-flame expert of the golden-winged devils was caught in the black qi. His body convulsed, and his scream pierced the air.
“That’s... AHH!”
It seemed that some terrifying monster was gnawing at his soul. His aura rapidly grew ancient and wild.
“How vicious. He’s igniting his ancestors’ discarnate souls to devour his own kin’s blood souls, turning them into puppets for the slaughter!” Ming Yu explained, her expression darkening.
By now, the black qi had devoured hundreds of the winged devils, taking over their bodies.
This cruel method would annihilate the discarnate souls of their ancestors while dooming the juniors they now controlled. Once the battle ended, the younger generation of the Golden Wing Heavenly Devils would be decimated.
“Hear my orders!” shouted Ming Yu. “Gather around the divine statue and wait for the sacred light!”
“It’s useless,” the two-headed man sneered, both mouths speaking as his saber slashed down. “For the Dao-Fruit, our Golden-Winged Heavenly Devil race will pay any price. Your struggle is meaningless.”
Ming Yu’s sword blazed with Sovereign flames as she clashed with him.
She declared, “My Shadow Devil Bat race will defend our legacy to the last! Our ancestor’s glory will never be defiled!”
BOOM!
Both sides grunted when their divine weapons clashed. Neither side could gain an edge.
With their Sovereign flames evenly matched, Ming Yu immediately adjusted her tactics. Instead of clashing with him head-on, she pushed her speed to its limit, weaving skillfully between her enemy’s strikes.
She glanced at the distant Long Chen, who was fighting the horned man. Long Chen was simply dodging, not fighting his opponent directly.
The disappearance of his star clouds made her heart tighten. Was his energy failing? If so, that was a terrible sign.
Thanks to the divine statue’s light, Ming Yu’s power was rapidly recovering. Though escaping the seal had consumed over half her core energy, it was now past sixty percent and rising. As long as she didn’t foolishly burn away her energy against the two-headed man, she would soon recover to her peak state. But Long Chen had no such advantage.
“Damn human, do you only know how to dodge?! What happened to your arrogance when you broke the scales?!” the golden-horned man taunted.
He repeatedly attacked, but Long Chen simply dodged. The stalemate frustrated him.
Just then, one powerful figure after another appeared amongst the Golden Wing Heavenly Devil race’s camp, all of them blazing with terrible hatred and resentment.
When Ming Yu saw those figures, she couldn’t help but gasp.
