Splash!
The raindrops got bigger and smashed the crowd’s bodies like hail. The Corpse Wizard King, Richardson, and others brought up the rear, and they used all their skills to gain time for the crowd to escape into the forest. They tried to contend against the terrifying Rain Demon with all their strength. Eight people stayed behind, including Yang Ling and three other Wanderers with High-Level Deity power.
“Death Ripples!” The Corpse Wizard King, protected by the Blood Angel Ophelia, let out a shout and launched a fierce attack. He attacked the Rain Demon Theo’s soul.
Sizzle!
The Death Ripples advanced quickly, and they emitted an ear-piercing noise. There weren’t any different than a large boulder that fell into a calm sea, and they gave rise to many waves and ripples. In an instant, ripples appeared in the air, and it was distorted. Many fine spatial fissures even appeared.
After the Corpse Wizard King advanced into the High-Level Deity Stage and got a Magical Divine Ring, his power advanced by leaps and bounds. The Death Ripples’ current power wasn’t on par with its former power before the advancement, and the disparity between them was as great as the disparity between heaven and earth.
“Death Law?” Rain Demon Theo cried in surprise when he saw the earth-shattering Death Ripples flying toward him. There were innumerable people in various Planes practicing the Death Law, but people who launched attacks similar to the Corpse Wizard King’s attack were rarely seen.
“You have comprehended a pretty good law, but it’s a pity that your power is too low.” The Rain Demon dodged the Thousand-handed Blood Vine’s tentacles and waved his right hand. He formed a Magical Barrier of water and managed to block the Corpse Wizard King’s Death Ripples easily. Soon after, he sped up and rushed toward the Corpse Wizard King. He thrust his transparent sword at his heart.
Fierce, precise, and swift!
Even though the Rain Demon was within Yang Ling’s Bonding Space, his power and speed were still shocking. He was steady like Mt Tai and was as swift as a rabbit. He didn’t just manage to easily get out of the crowd’s encirclement, he was still able to launch a deadly counterattack.
As long as the sword was thrust inside its target, the Corpse Wizard King’s Godhead would be destroyed on the spot, and he wouldn’t manage to survive even if he had ten lives.
“Demon God Protection!” At this critical juncture, the Blood Angel Ophelia stood sideways in front of the Corpse Wizard King, and she combined her power with his. She instantly got great fighting prowess, and as “tinkling” noise echoed out, she forcefully deflected the Rain Demon Theo’s terrifying sword.
After Yang Ling left the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension, she snatched time to study the Demon God Battle Formation and she managed to quickly find the way to combine both people’s power to the highest extent. She named this skill the Demon God Protection, and she planned to polish it further before teaching it to the Dark Dragon King, Giant Ape King, and the others.
“Huh? Angel Battle Formation, are you members of the City Amongst the Clouds?”
The Rain Demon Theo’s expression turned grave. He looked at the eight wings on the back of the blood angel Ophelia and looked at the strange scarlet radiance around her body and the Corpse Wizard King’s body. He observed with his senses both people’s Soul Ripples, and he found out that they were identical. He already knew that the origins of Yang Ling, who had a Protective Master Divine Weapon, were anything but simple, but he still didn’t expect that their group was protected by an angel of the City Amongst the Clouds.
The City Amongst the Clouds was slightly stronger than Algernon Divine Branch, and it was one of the few great factions in the Six Main Planes. If Yang Ling was related to the City Amongst the Clouds’ Lord, the Light Divine Lord, then this would be troublesome. Theo always acted alone and wasn’t afraid of any faction, but he still didn’t want to rashly sow hatred with a great faction like the City Amongst the Clouds.
“Sir, this is a misunderstanding. We don’t have any Protective Master Divine Weapon.” The black-robed old man, Wilcox, had a rich experience. The Rain Demon Theo was now muttering to himself, so Wilcox took advantage of this to make the last effort and take a breather. Theo managed to easily block the crowd’s attacks, and his careless attacks would trouble the crowd. If he attacked at full strength, then the terror of his offensive power would be unimaginable.
“A misunderstanding?” The Rain Demon Theo sneered coldly.
He detected faint, yet terrifying Energy Ripples on Yang Ling’s body. Just the tip of the iceberg was revealed, yet it was already so terrifying as if this was an aura released by a lofty Divine Lord. Yang Ling didn’t possess such great power and the only explanation was that he had a powerful Protective Master Divine Weapon.
“Humph, hand over the Protective Master Divine Weapon. If you don’t want to die, then get lost.” After the Rain Demon detected the obscure Energy Ripples in Yang Ling’s body, he attacked decisively and rushed toward Yang Ling, who was next to him. He would affront the City Amongst the Clouds by this, but he still decided to do so to take the Master Divine Weapon.
He had gone through many trials and hardships to increase his power and take revenge. He had gotten this rare chance only with great difficulty. How could he let it slip by?
Swoosh!
The Rain Demon Theo was quite swift, and he instantly reached Yang Ling. He thrust his sword at Yang Ling’s chest, and the dense rainwater fused and turned into a large Magical Barrier that covered Yang Ling and trapped him. Theo tried to kill his target with a single strike!
In an instant, Yang Ling couldn’t detect the outside world any longer, and the Teleportation Gate or the Five Elements Evasions Spells lost effectiveness. He also felt great pressure weighing down on him, and it was accompanied by an intense murderous aura.
Heavy Water Prison, this was the Ultimate Law of Water Mysteries, and Yang Ling experienced its terror.
The Graveyard of Gods and Devils was unpredictable and this was why the Rain Demon decided to attack decisively at full strength because he was afraid that an accident would occur if he delayed this affair. The Wind Law increased his speed and turned him as swift as lightning, and he was so swift that it seemed like he teleported to Yang Ling. As for the Water Law, it allowed him to release great power within Yang Ling’s Bonding Space.
“Mt. Hua Splitting Strike!” After Yang Ling tried teleporting several times to no avail, he let out a shout and instantly wore the Ice-Sealing armor. He also used the Ground Protection Spell, and he advanced instead of retreating. He raised the Battle Soul Blade high and rushed forward head-on.
“Hand over the Protective Master Divine Weapon or die.” The Rain Demon that moved at a high-speed instantly changed his path and dodged narrowly Yang Ling’s sharp Battle Soul Blade. Soon after, he thrust his sword at Yang Ling’s chest and penetrated his Ice-Sealing armor. He also extinguished the Ground Protection’s yellow halo and thrust his sword fiercely.
Sizzle!
When the Rain Demon assumed that he would get to kill Yang Ling with a single strike and destroy his Godhead, dazzling serpentine lightning suddenly emanated from the sword, and it passed through the sword before it went into his body.
Meanwhile, Yang Ling attacked with the Battle Soul Blade again, and he emitted boundless murderous aura as he went after his opponent’s neck. The sword shone brightly, and it let the Rain Demon feel intense danger.
“Lightning Divine Armor, darn! How is it possible for this terrifying Lightning Divine Armor to exist? Could it be that you are the Thunderstorm Star Monarch’s disciple?” The Rain Demon Theo was caught off-guard and the serpentine lightning bolts flowed into his body. His whole body turned numb and he moved back quickly and prudently.
The Lightning Law was the law with the greatest offensive power among the numerous Laws, and practicing it was very difficult. Only a few people practiced it and those who could comprehend the Lightning Law were fewer. But, one of them was the Thunderstorm Star Monarch, who practiced in selection in the Graveyard of Gods and Devils for many years, and he was also one of the strongest people who practiced the Lightning Law.
The Thunderstorm Star Monarch was a peerless expert and he was more terrifying than the Abyssal Demon Lord, Algernon Divine Lord, and others. It was said that even the City Amongst the Clouds’ Lord and the Death Plane’s King of Darkness weren’t a match for him. The Falling Lightning Mountain Range defended by him was filled with Godheads and Divine Weapons of Ancient Gods and Devil, yet none had dared to approach it for years.
“Hand over the Divine Weapon. If you don’t do so, you will die no matter who you are.” After the Rain Demon muttered to himself irresolutely for a moment, he wore an ice-cold expression and shouted before he rushed crazily at Yang Ling again. His transparent sword let out a soft cry and emitted sharp Sword Energy.
The City Amongst the Clouds had great influence and none dared to provoke the Thunderstorm Star Monarch, but the Rain Demon Theo still gritted his teeth and threw caution to the wind so that he could increase his power quickly and take revenge during his life.
“Death Coil!”
“Demon God Protection, die!”
…
Blood flowed out of Yang Ling’s chest, and the Rain Demon rushed at him crazily again. When the Thousand-handed Blood Vine Elizabeth, Ophelia, and others saw this, they all turned pale with fright and rushed over recklessly.
Even Richardson didn’t hesitate any longer and forcefully used the Cutting Edge Badge of Death without caring about its backlash. He wore a scarlet Cutting Edge Armor and rushed toward the Rain Demon. His speed and power rose drastically and he quickly crossed the dump grassland. He didn’t detect that a sachet fell on the ground at this moment.
“The Cutting Edge Badge of Death. Huh, who… Who are you?” When the Rain Demon Theo was about to kill Yang Ling and steal his Protective Master Divine Weapon before escaping, he got to see the malevolent-looking heavy armor worn by Richardson, and he also saw Richardson’s familiar-looking face. At that moment, he became hesitant, and his body was even shaken when he saw the sachet that fell off Richardson and landed on the ground.
A pretty woman’s image emerged once again in his mind!
Only direct descendants of the Green Clan’s bloodline could activate the Cutting Edge Badge of Death. The more he looked at his person, the more he felt that his facial features resembled a certain person, and when he saw the familiar-looking handmade sachet, which had several snow lotus flowers, he felt like he was about to figure out Richardson’s identity.
“It doesn’t matter who I am. The crux is that you want to kill my brother Yang Ling. You won’t manage to do so unless you go through my corpse.” Richardson held his heavy sword and stood sideways in front of the injured Yang Ling.
If people were in a disagreement, they wouldn’t want to exchange even half a word with each other. Some people who met daily would be respectful to each other as if they were strangers when they worked in the office, but once they got off work, they would start fighting and scheming against each other as if they wished to kill one another. But, other people would treat each other like close friends after drinking just a few glasses of wine the first time they met and would be willing to do anything for one another from then on.
“You are Doloriz’s son. Hahaha, you are Doloriz’s son,” the Rain Demon Theo muttered bitterly before he laughed crazily. He took out a sachet from his pocket and it was identical to the one in the ground that fell off Richardson.
They were the same size and also had simple and fine marks, as well as the same pretty blossoming snow lotus flowers.
“Hahaha, Riz, you are Riz’s son.” The Rain Demon Theo laughed crazily before he gnashed his teeth and raised his sharp sword high. His eyes were bloodshot, and it seemed like he wished to hack Richardson into meat paste, but as he held the sachet and looked at Richardson’s familiar-looking face, he got hesitant again.
“Hahaha, hahaha…”
The Rain Demon Theo hesitated for a moment before he turned around and left with his cane in front of the nervous crowd’s gazes. He laughed crazily as if he suffered a grave blow. He came quickly and left quickly, and he instantly disappeared on the horizon.
