Summoning the Legendary Demon, Annihilation!
Chapter 589 Summoning the Legendary Demon, Annihilation! (5400)
The Watchers leader is using his own blood to hasten the opening of the portal!
"Holy crap! You can actually do that?!"
"Didn't they say the Blood Legion wouldn't arrive for another four days?"
Clearly, things have developed in a way that has exceeded Cao Xing's expectations.
If this continues, the Blood Legion may very well arrive ahead of schedule!
Cao Xing took a deep breath and quickly said, "Go all out! Break the barrier and destroy the blood pool!"
Upon hearing the command, everyone once again unleashed their full power!
Without hesitation, the Dragon Speaker used [Dragon Pact Sword Dance], and a powerful suction swept over, drawing the Watchers closer to her involuntarily!
Cao Xing also unleashed the [Primal Cube] on the Dragon Speaker. With the added double suction, the Watchers felt as if they had lost control of their bodies.
On the field, Assam raised the Lake Woman's sword high, ready to unleash a devastating strike at any moment!
Marlena, who was standing next to her, had already flown into the air, and Lotus Sword Dance was charging up its power.
Other powerful individuals are also preparing to unleash their strongest skills!
They were actually planning to unleash a devastating attack and wipe out the remaining seven Watchers in one fell swoop!
You can reply, right?
I'll take you down in one fell swoop, let's see how you respond!
The Watchers could naturally see through Cao Xing's plan.
They also knew that once they were controlled, they would be instantly killed by the power of this group of strong people!
Just as they were about to be pulled away by the immense suction, they exchanged a glance, and a determined look appeared in their eyes.
"Gentlemen, it is time to give everything for humanity!"
"Alright! Let's hit the road together!"
"Burn my blood, light the way for humanity!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a red mist of blood rose from the watchers and began to boil instantly.
It was as if the blood in his body had been ignited, radiating endless waves.
Their momentum instantly doubled!
No, even "doubling" doesn't do it justice!
These guys' strength even reached the level of the Dragon Speaker and Malenina in an instant.
"Such an insane improvement? What kind of method is this?"
Cao Xing looked puzzled, then quickly glanced at their state.
[Status: Blood Burning (Ignites all blood in the body, increasing all attributes by 200%, reducing damage taken by 99%, reducing healing received by 100%, and granting immunity to all control effects, while reducing maximum health by 1% per second.)]
(Note: This skill cannot be interrupted once it is activated. If your maximum health drops below 5%, you will die immediately.)
...
"Burning blood?"
"To exchange their lives for a 100-second boost—these Watchers' methods are truly terrifying and ruthless!"
Cao Xing's gaze gradually turned serious.
But he wasn't afraid. It was just a twofold increase, not a breakthrough to legendary status!
They can still fight!
"Go on, kill!"
Upon hearing the order, the dozens of powerful warriors under his command attacked once again.
A series of terrifying attacks descended, and a dense array of damage numbers appeared on the screen.
【-1346! 】
【-2578! 】
【-5347! 】
【-3428! 】
【-twenty four】
【-6513! 】
Compared to the previous damage numbers that were often in the hundreds of thousands, their attacks have been reduced to less than one percent!
In the [Burning Blood] state, these seven Watchers were like a group of berserk beasts, completely disregarding the attacks they were being subjected to and launching attacks madly!
"Heroic Combat Skill, Mountain-Shattering Blade!"
"Heroic Battle Skill, Raging Waves!"
"Heroic Combat Techniques..."
One terrifying ultimate move after another was unleashed!
Even Cao Xing and his group of more than forty powerful figures were forced to retreat steadily, even getting further and further away from the blood pool!
While struggling to resist the attacks, Cao Xing muttered, "Damn, this is a bit outrageous!"
"Once these guys activate Blood Burn, they all transform like Saiyans!"
But thinking about it, it makes sense. After all, this is the power they gained with their lives!
If you can't even do this much, what's the point of sacrificing your life?
Cao Xing quickly thought it through.
“This burning state can only last for one hundred seconds. After that, these Watchers will die on their own, so I don’t need to confront them head-on.”
"But... judging from the current situation, a hundred seconds is more than enough time for the portal in the blood pool to take shape."
"When the Blood Legion arrives, our actions will be meaningless..."
Clearly, stalling tactics won't work.
After a moment's thought, his gaze gradually became serious.
"It seems we have no choice but to use our trump card?"
Cao Xing has many trump cards up his sleeve.
In addition to the lizardman statues and the Ascalonian Book of the Dead, there is also the ability to summon legendary great demons through the demonic codex!
And Isabel was released from the sac of the dead.
The most effective of these are naturally the latter two options, since both the Great Demon and Isabel possess legendary-level combat power.
Faced with legends, these heroes will be instantly overwhelmed!
No matter how much blood you burn, the gap between you and a legendary figure remains enormous.
Meanwhile, the others can take this opportunity to attack the Blood Pool Barrier.
Cao Xing immediately took action.
With a flap of his wings, he broke away from the battlefield and distanced himself from the others.
Then, a book brimming with demonic energy appeared in his hand—the Demon Codex!
At this moment, terrifying demonic power surged from his body like a tidal wave, and the codex in his hand emitted a chilling dark power.
"Wow~!"
In the blink of an eye, Cao Xing's physique underwent an astonishing change.
His limbs became longer, his body suddenly grew to two meters tall, and a pair of jet-black wings appeared on his back!
After many days, the demon form has reappeared!
Moreover, wielding the [Demon Codex] made his aura even more terrifying, like a demon god emerging from the abyss!
His dark pupils stared at the group of crazed watchers on the battlefield, and anyone whose gaze he swept over felt a chill run down their neck.
The powerful figures engaged in the battle in the air also seemed to notice Cao Xing's change and turned their gazes towards him.
"The power of the demon race? I didn't expect that the legendary codex of these guys would fall into your hands." The leader of the Watchers spoke with a hint of surprise and some wariness.
Cao Xing ignored him and directly used the legendary special effect from the Codex—the Demon Gate!
"In the name of the abyss, with darkness as my guide, I use the demonic codex as my key to open the gates to endless purgatory!"
Cao Xing's voice was deep and authoritative, as if it carried some irresistible power.
"Ancient beings slumbering in the depths of the abyss, heeding my call, descend upon this world and fight for me!"
"Boom!"
As the incantation was chanted, the demonic codex in his hand suddenly erupted with a monstrous demonic energy that shot straight into the sky!
In the sky, a huge black rift slowly tore open, as if connecting to another world.
Endless black energy surged, as if countless eyes were spying on and watching everyone, sending chills down their spines.
"Hahahahahaha!!!"
A wild laugh echoed, carrying with it boundless authority and oppression.
The next moment, a huge hand emerged from the crack, its surface covered in black scales and its fingertips like sharp blades.
Immediately afterwards, a massive figure slowly emerged from the crack.
It was a demon over ten meters tall, covered in thick black armor engraved with ancient runes, radiating a suffocating aura.
He held a huge chain whip, the whip echoing with the wails of countless wronged souls, as if the very souls could be torn apart by it.
Cao Xing quickly glanced at the monster.
The Devilish Warden
[Level: 120 (Legendary)]
[Potential: Dominator]
……
The monster noticed Cao Xing in his demon form and said, "I am the Demon Warden, a member of the same race who wields the Demon Codex. Did you summon me here?"
Cao Xing nodded slightly. "It is I. Now I command you to kill the enemy before you!"
He immediately pointed to the seven Watchers who had entered the Blood Burn state, his tone unquestionable.
The legendary demon summoned by the Demon Gate has only 120 seconds to run, during which time it must obey any command from Cao Xing.
Then, the demon warden's gaze fell upon the target Cao Xing had pointed to, a bloodthirsty glint flashing in his dark pupils.
"as you wish!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the demon warden suddenly swung his chain whip, which, accompanied by a shrill wail, instantly extended to several thousand meters.
The long whip, like a black chain, instantly struck seven Watchers.
One of them tried to raise his sword to block, but the moment he made contact with the chains, his weapon was knocked away, and he was thrown into the ground as if he had been hit by a heavy blow!
A wound also appeared on his head.
【-twenty four】
Even with a 99% damage reduction, it can still deal 50,000 damage, which shows the destructive power of the Demon Warden.
However, that's not the most terrifying part.
Once the first chain descended, the subsequent attacks came down like a raging storm.
"Crackling~!"
"Boom! Boom!"
The black chains were swung by the demon warden, leaving afterimages with each strike, each blow carrying immense power and tearing cracks thousands of meters long into the ground.
Under this terrifying offensive, the seven Watchers were the first to be hit, and were beaten without any power to fight back.
Damage numbers of fifty or sixty thousand floated up densely.
If their damage hadn't been reduced by 99%, all seven Watchers would have been instantly killed in the first second of the Demon Warden's outburst!
Even so, their health was dropping rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, it has dropped to below 60%!
Cao Xing seemed to have seen a glimmer of hope in eliminating them!
He quickly said, "Quickly, focus all your firepower on taking them down first, then attack the blood pool!"
Although these Watchers have had their damage reduced by 99%, Cao Xing has more than forty powerful warriors here!
With the Demon Warden's damage output, it won't take long to take down these Warden heroes.
Of course, the most crucial reason is that Cao Xing is currently lacking a large amount of heroic heart and soul!
If we can take down these guys, we'll definitely get a huge loot!
"Whoosh!" A massive barrage of attacks arrived instantly.
That area was once again filled with all sorts of terrifying energy!
And the health of these Watcher heroes began to drop at an extremely terrifying rate!
68%...
53%...
32%...
In just four seconds, their health dropped to below 20%!
The legendary Watchers in the sky, and their leader, naturally saw the battle unfolding below.
They never expected that even with the seven Watchers willing to sacrifice their lives and activate Blood Burn, they would still be utterly crushed by this otherworldly lord and his people!
It looked like it was about to die completely.
"Go rescue them!" The Watcher leader's voice was already tinged with anxiety.
Upon hearing this, the other Watcher elders all wanted to break free from the enemies in front of them and rush down to provide assistance.
However, Queen Youlan and the former king of Gray Mist each used their own methods.
A gray mist is constantly being released, drawing the enemy back to the battlefield.
The other one involves a light tap of the finger, during which pale blue petals bloom in the air and sprout numerous vines.
These Watcher Elders were bound tightly, giving them no chance to escape.
At this moment, Cao Xing, along with the Demon Warden and a group of other masters and heroes, was still frantically attacking the Watchers below.
Under their attacks, in the blink of an eye, these Wardens' health dropped below 10% again!
The sense of impending death drove them to roar in anger.
"Damn it! How could we have fallen here!?"
"Burning blood! Break through!"
"Aaaaah! I haven't completed the leader's orders yet!"
The frantic shouts continued.
But they could only watch helplessly as their health points rapidly diminished.
In the sky, the legendary Watchers, and even their leader, tried several times to rush down to their rescue, but they were held back!
When Cao Xing and his men's final wave of attacks arrived.
All shouts fell silent.
The seven corpses collapsed simultaneously.
In just ten seconds, all seven hero-level powerhouses were killed!
A large number of kill notifications appeared in front of Cao Xing.
[Your territory member: Braum Ironwall successfully killed the Warden Hero: Vito Barnes lv94, Tier 10 Overlord-level creature, gaining 10340000 experience points (Pale Tree bonus)]
[Your subordinate lord, Liu Muxue, has successfully killed the Watcher Hero: Graham Jones, level 81, a Tier 9 Commander-level creature. Experience gained: 0]
[You have successfully killed the Watcher Hero: Blair Pierce, level 88, a Tier 9 Commander-level creature. Experience gained: 0]
【your……】
...
Clearly, this is the most heroes Cao Xing has ever killed in his history!
In addition to the massive amount of experience points, Braum leveled up on the spot.
These heroes also dropped a lot of loot!
Cao Xing had already seen the souls that had fallen to the ground—the hearts of heroes, the blood of the strong!
A slight smile involuntarily appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"It seems I'll be able to recruit a few more hero-level powerhouses this time I go back!"
"This mission was worthwhile just for the loot dropped by these Watchers."
At the same time, Sarah, quick-witted, transformed into a shadow and rushed over, then picked up the spoils from the ground.
He stared at the seven or eight corpses lying on the ground.
A look of sorrow appeared in the eyes of the Watcher leader in the sky.
He gazed at Cao Xing and said in a deep voice, "Every Watcher shoulders the mission of making humanity rise; they are the spark of a new humanity."
"You have killed so many of us and have incurred the blood debt of humanity. You will surely have to pay for it one day."
"Your name has been engraved on the human monument; all will remember your crimes..."
Cao Xing was speechless.
Ignoring the rambling Watcher leader, he was just about to order his men to continue attacking the Blood Pool.
Just then, a burst of golden light suddenly shone behind the leader of the Watchers!
"boom--!"
A dazzling golden beam of light shot into the sky, piercing the clouds and seemingly connecting heaven and earth.
Within the pillar of light, the phantom of a huge stone tablet slowly emerged, its surface covered with ancient runes that resembled some kind of ancient script.
"Human Golden Stele, slay the traitor!" The voice of the Watcher leader resounded like thunder throughout the heavens and earth.
The next moment, the golden phantom of the stone tablet suddenly attacked Cao Xing!
Wherever the stone tablet passed, space seemed to be torn apart, and golden light swept in like a tide, carrying the power to destroy everything.
Cao Xing's pupils contracted. He could feel the terror of this power, as if even his soul was about to be crushed!
There is absolutely no way to stop such an attack!
In the critical moment, he shouted without hesitation, "Demon Warden, save me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, that enormous figure took action.
He swung the chain in his hand, and in an instant it wrapped around Cao Xing's waist.
Then he suddenly pulled him over!
However, the golden inscription followed closely, transforming once again into golden lightning and sweeping over!
Life and death in an instant!
Cao Xing made up his mind and said in a deep voice, "Demon Warden, I order you to stop it!"
During these 120 seconds, the demons emerging from the Demon Gate must be absolutely obedient to Cao Xing.
Moreover, what they brought to this world was not a physical entity.
Even if you die, it's not true death.
The evil warden carried out his orders without hesitation.
Its massive body flashed, blocking Cao Xing's path and making direct contact with the golden inscription.
"Boom!!!"
A terrifying golden light burst forth like the sun, instantly illuminating a territory spanning thousands of kilometers!
Then, Cao Xing witnessed firsthand how, under the suppression of this golden inscription, that terrifying physical body began to disintegrate and crumble inch by inch!
Finally, with a 'poof' sound, it exploded on the spot!
【-twenty four】
A damage figure exceeding one billion has appeared!
When the golden light faded, all the buildings in the entire palace were completely destroyed, turning into ruins.
Everyone watched this scene in shock.
Cao Xing gasped sharply!
The Watchers leader's attack was truly terrifying; even the legendary Demon Warden was instantly killed.
If it were him, it would be even more impossible to stop.
Fortunately, he found a legendary scapegoat.
After regaining his senses, Cao Xing continued to give the order: "Now everyone, begin attacking the barrier and blast the blood pool apart!"
"Boom!!"
The group recovered from the attack by the Watcher leader and began unleashing a barrage of attacks on the barrier that enveloped the blood pool.
Sword energy, arrows, and magic struck the surface, creating ripples.
The durability of this barrier is quite astonishing.
It boasts a durability of 1.5 million and also features over-limit runes.
Attacks below level six will be completely immune, and under normal circumstances, it will take a long time to break through.
Fortunately, Cao Xing did not bring any beings below the seventh rank this time.
"Boom! Boom!"
Violent explosions continued to sound.
The barrier's durability is also dropping rapidly.
80 million...
Seventy million...
Sixty million...
The barrier's durability has already dropped to around 50 million.
Just then, Cao Xing suddenly felt a chill run down his spine!
He stopped what he was doing instantly, looked around warily, and then looked at the sky above.
However, all the Watcher Legends are currently engaged in a fierce battle with the Ice King and his forces.
Even the leader of the Watchers was held back by the old patriarch with all his might, preventing him from interfering with Cao Xing's side again.
"Could it be my imagination?" Cao Xing asked with a strange expression.
Just then, they suddenly sensed a dangerous aura coming from ahead!
This aura seemed to be emanating from inside the barrier.
His gaze instantly turned in that direction.
However, apart from a hazy blood mist and a door that was barely visible, there was nothing unusual about it.
But Cao Xing believed in his sixth sense; there was definitely something wrong ahead!
So he quickly ordered, "Everyone, retreat!"
