Chapter 60 Close Combat

Before long, Zhu Meng, Fei Jiao, Du Xiao, and Lu Xu surrounded the undead lord, Gui Xuan Tyrant.

Gojo Satoru crushed a Commander-level undead blocking his way and arrived at the designated location.

"I'm a little late," Du Xiao said.

"It took some time to clear out the enemy; there were too many undead below the monarch level," Gojo Satoru shrugged.

"Haha, we all saw the fireworks you set off," Zhu Meng said with a laugh.

"With such talent, it's no wonder Zhu Meng recognizes your strength so highly!" Lu Xu exclaimed.

Hikaru was also shocked by Gojo Satoru's talent.

However, the five people's conversation angered the monarch-level undead tyrant, who roared:

"Hooray~~"

The Ghost Tyrant's body was enormous, capable of looking down upon all living beings, and a huge cloud of thick black mist spewed from its blood-red maw!

The black mist transformed into countless night crows, their scarlet eyes wide open, and they swarmed towards Gojo Satoru and his companions.

The sky was filled with countless crows, completely enveloping the night sky, turning into a raging tide that swept across the heavens and the earth!

"We'll talk later, let's kill it first!" With that, Zhu Meng Huoyi spread his wings and took the lead, transforming into a streak of red light that shot straight into the sky.

Not to be outdone, Gojo Satoru flapped his crimson-gold wings and instantly caught up.

The other three exchanged glances, and constellations began to form super-tiered star palaces around them.

"Heavenly Flame Funeral - Thousand-Petaled Flame Flower!"

With a wave of his hand, Zhu Meng sent several fiery flowers that suddenly covered the path of the night crows.

Gojo Satoru dashed forward, aiming straight at the Demon Tyrant; he couldn't let it run rampant any longer.

Compared to the colossal demon king, who stood over ten meters tall, Gojo Satoru appeared small and weak.

But the truth is, Gojo Satoru didn't take this deceased lord seriously at all.

At this moment, the Ghost Tyrant is preparing to unleash its ultimate move to bring humanity to its knees.

Gojo Satoru charged forward at breakneck speed, like a crimson-gold meteor, swift as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, he was right in front of the deceased king.

Clench your fists and apply spatial power, then strike suddenly when you are at a sufficient distance!

Bang! !

The fists pounded on the Ghost Tyrant like heavy hammers, interrupting the unknown skill.

Gojo Satoru gave Oni-no-Tyrant no chance to create distance, attacking with all his might with both fists.

With the aid of spatial magic, the power of each of his punches increases several times over.

Enraged, the Ghostly Tyrant suddenly transformed into a strange black mist and fled backward.

"The Prison Space!"

Gojo Satoru's eyes narrowed, and the immense spatial power mixed with spiritual power instantly formed an invisible barrier, sealing off all of the Demon Tyrant's escape routes.

"Well done!" After Zhu Meng completely dealt with the night crows in the air, he saw that Gojo Satoru had already trapped the Demon Tyrant and couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

"Hooray~~"

The tyrannical demon roared repeatedly, no longer clinging to any hope of escaping unscathed, and its coordinated claws lashed out wildly.

Gojo Satoru adopted an offensive strategy, completely disregarding the Oni Tyrant's counterattack. The wounds on his body that had been torn open emitted a white light and then healed completely.

Only dodge fatal attacks, and use your body to withstand non-fatal attacks, then trigger the healing system's automatic healing.

At this moment, Lu Xu and the others also completed their Star Palace formation and rushed over to join the siege of the Ghost Tyrant.

"Flowers in full bloom, vines entwined!"

"The Punishment of Thunder, the Prohibition of the Nine Commandments!"

The first to be affected were plant-based and lightning-based super-level magic, two types of binding magic that did not conflict with each other, which suddenly enveloped the Ghost Tyrant.

Gojo Satoru reacted quickly, instantly teleporting outside the magic's range. After all, what appeared now was only control magic; there were still destructive magics to come.

Du Xiao and Lu Xu exchanged a glance, and the next moment they both unleashed their respective super-level killing magic.

"Holy Decree - Demon-Slaying Sword!"

"The Dragon Vein of Rock - The Earth Falls!"

Facing a monarch-level undead, neither of them hesitated to unleash their full power.

Lu Xu slammed his hands on the ground, and the earth was swept over the Ghost Tyrant like a surging wave.

Du Xiao controlled the giant sword formed from holy light, tearing through the void and crashing down, cleaving the heavens and destroying the earth!

The Ghost Tyrant, who was now firmly restrained by three super-level spells, was filled with panic.

The next moment, the holy greatsword pierced through the body of the Ghost Tyrant, pinning him to the ground.

The ground began to tremble slightly.

Gojo Satoru's eyes burned with killing intent, and in the blink of an eye, he flew over from hundreds of meters away.

"Illusory Style: Zi!"

With a final blow, the purple orb shattered the undead core of the Ghost Tyrant.

When the monarch died, his undead army instantly fell into chaos, and the undead leaders scattered.

"Thanks to you this time!" Hikaru looked at Gojo Satoru with a grateful expression.

The fact that we were able to so easily slay the Demon Tyrant this time was largely thanks to Gojo Satoru's preemptive control...

"You're ruthless, kid! You went straight up and engaged the deceased king in hand-to-hand combat!" Zhu Meng gasped when he saw the wounds all over Gojou's body.

"It's just a minor injury," Gojo Satoru said nonchalantly.

"The Ghost Tyrant is dead, and the undead horde under its command has begun to retreat," Lu Xu said.

"Let's go clean up the battlefield!" Du Xiao said.

"Um!"

The five people transformed into streams of light of different colors and flew off to different parts of the battlefield.

……

Under the hazy rain, the gray city gate tower stands tall in the center of the long city wall.

Milky white light continuously rose into the sky, reaching the mages who were engaged in battle.

Dark clouds loomed in the east, and the dawn was late in arriving. The people on the north city wall shouted in unison, welcoming the new day and also the triumphant return of their heroes…

Under the rain.

One after another, many groups of mages gradually approached the city wall, and a crimson-gold figure quickly flew past several groups and onto the city wall.

"Where are Councilor Zhu Meng and the others?" Staff Officer Zhu asked when he saw Wu Tiao Wu returning.

"It's behind here." Gojo Satoru folded his wings and jumped in through the window.

The next moment, Lu Xu, Zhu Meng, Fei Jiao, and Du Xiao also entered the city wall from different places.

……

As dawn broke, the dark clouds and rain made everything so gloomy, but no matter how gloomy or obscure it was, the night was over, and it was now daytime.

The sound of bells echoed throughout the city, and the residents who lived there walked early in the morning through the streets and alleys in order to make a living.

The towering city walls and the faint light would protect them and ward off the terrible spirits of the dead.

Incredibly, the undead outside the city walls did not leave; they were still chasing the mages who had not yet returned to the city!

The long city walls stretched for dozens of kilometers. As the bells rang and dawn broke, the guards, who had been on edge all night, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, when they turned their heads, what they saw was not the white bone plain they had imagined, but a vast army of undead as black as the Lu River!

That's right, the undead didn't disappear into darkness with the rising sun. They were still active on the earth, greedily and bloodthirstyly staring at the city walls!

Zhu Meng, Du Xiao, Staff Officer Zhu, and others standing beside Wu Tiaowu were filled with shock and disbelief.

"How is this possible? Why can these undead move around during the day!" Zhu Meng exclaimed in astonishment.

"Looks like this battle won't end so easily!" Gojo Satoru said helplessly, as if sensing something.
