“Bang, bang, bang, bang~”
Around the Wicked Bead, space was torn apart continuously as one dark shadow after another emerged. Those dark shadows would vanish into the cracks in space after they had stabbed at the bead.
The Asmodian Lord was incredibly fast when he attacked. Some average Noble Lord Realm warriors could not even see him clearly. All they could make out was some flashing dark shadows. In addition to that, the Wicked Bead would glow and give out a muffled noise.
Many people were stunned. Who could possibly fight back the Asmodian Lord when his moves were so horrifying? The Wicked Bead might seem indestructible, but how many attacks could the bead actually withstand?
This was not only the concern for regular warriors, but also for some patriarchs of the Demon-slaying Hall. Any piece of artifact that could provide protection must be sustained by energy which could deplete quickly under strong powers. When the energy was gone, the protection artifact would be useless.
However, Lu Li was not concerned at all!
The Asmodian Lord sure had strong abilities in combat, but he could not come close to those old freaks in the nine universes. Relying on himself alone, he could spend years and still would not be able to open the bead.
Lu Li did not move the bead since he was still pondering about what was the source of information for Asmodian Lord to know about the Wicked Bead. He also recognized that this was a Relic. There could only be two explanations—either there was some mole on Lu Li’s side, or the Asmodian Lord had obtained the information from the nine universes.
Looking at Uncle Nine of the Jun Family, Lu Li asked, “Tell me, can warriors of the nine universes arrive at the Heaven Reverse Universe this fast?”
“I don’t think so…”
Uncle Nine of the Jun Family blinked and checked with the other four before he continued with certainty, “The Heaven Reverse Universe is connected to the Inferno, which was very far away from the nine universes. People of the nine universes can break down the spatial barriers. Even so, they cannot arrive at the Heaven Reverse Universe right away. They must go through universes. Let’s say that they need to bring down at least two spatial barriers between universes. It was even unthinkable that they can finish it within a couple of years. On top of that… they must know the exact location of the Heaven Reverse Universe or else, the cost will be larger and it will take longer as well.”
To a certain extent, Lu Li was relieved. The Heaven Reverse Universe was indeed far away from the nine universes. People there would spend a long time to get here.
Seeing that Lu Li felt a bit upset, Lu Renhuang asked, “What is going on outside? Do you need me to go out?”
“It’s okay. Father, please stay here. I can handle this!”
Lu Li smiled. He checked outside with psychic power, but still did not move the Wicked Bead. He used psychic power to go through all of Asmodian Lord’s shadows to try and find a way to end his life.
Of the four alien races, there was only one Semi-God Realm warrior. Eliminating this one could force the army to step down. The Voodoo Poison alone could not do much. As soon as the Voodoo Race master came out, Lu Li would take his life.
“Feather Wind~”
Lu Li did not dare to let himself out, not to mention Lu Renhuang. The only leverage he had at the moment was the Feather Wind. A strand of Feather Wind floated out from the hall and circulated around the Wicked Bead.
Fearing that he might alert his enemy, Lu Li did not let out too much Feather Wind all at once. He did so gradually and the Asmodian Lord outside had not stopped his actions.
“Dragons of Wind~”
When the amount of Feather Wind reached a certain amount, Lu Li gathered it up. The Feather Wind circulated around the Wicked Bead rapidly and whooshed toward the black shadows that were approaching.
“Swish, swish~”
Many dark shadows vanished into thin air. From Lu Li’s left came out another dark shadow. Instead of attacking, the shadow crept back into the crack in space after a pause.
“I see those are not clones. This is a special Profound Meaning!”
Lu Li understood the situation better now. But he was disappointed to see that even the Asmodian Lord was enveloped by the Feather Wind, he did not suffer. The Feather Wind was not yet strong enough to impact a Semi-God Realm warrior.
If that was the case, Lu Li decided not to waste more time on this.
Feather Wind was precious as well and the amount was determined. Lu Li flew away from the Wicked Bead. He started to focus attacking warriors around him and ignored the Asmodian Lord.
“Bang, bang, bang~”
The Wicked Bead blasted into a crowd where many warriors were gathered. The Wicked Bead crashed through the crowd, leaving behind many broken limbs flying around and blood spilling all over the sky.
“Back off~”
“Woo, woo~”
Warriors of the four alien races yelled one after another. Space around the Wicked Bead fluctuated again, as the Asmodian Lord came out to attack the Wicked Bead.
Lu Li brushed aside Asmodian Lord’s actions and moved the Wicked Bead around to hunt down the army. The total number of warriors in the army here was over two million. Before the order to retreat was given, all warriors of the four alien races were nearby. They were basically living targets that could fall to prey all too easily.
As one alien warrior after another was crushed to death, human warriors in the Heaven Blood City turned more and more excited. The Wicked Bead had been chased by the Asmodian Lord. However, Lu Li could still slaughter the four alien races’ force with no regard. What did it imply?
It must be that Lu Li was not afraid of the Asmodian Lord, who had proven to be unable to open the Wicked Bead anytime soon. Otherwise, Lu Li would have fled in the Wicked Bead a while back.
“Good!”
Some patriarchs shouted. If the Wicked Bead could withstand Asmodian Lord’s attacks, Lu Li could continue to crush and pound alien warriors. When all the warriors were gone, the Asmodian Lord thought he could bring down the city by himself?
The four alien races were flying into a panic. The warriors had not received the command to retreat. Nevertheless, many of them had started to run away. Nobody wanted to face death. That mountain-like bead could crush a large group every time it went by, which was nerve-racking for many alien races.
“Spread out!”
Suddenly, the Asmodian Lord yelled. Alien races near the Wicked Bead fled to all directions. Even those Earth Immortal Realm warriors that were going after the Wicked Bead escaped as well.
The Asmodian Lord presented himself in front of Lu Li. This time, the former did not attack. Instead, he wielded the sword and stabbed it in the air. Every time he did so, there would be a crack appearing. Gradually, a hole in space emerged.
“Eh, what is that?”
Lu Li sensed that from the distance. He tried to fly the Wicked Bead away when the Asmodian Lord abruptly slapped in the air. The hole in space started twirling around, generating a space whirl which spread rapidly to the Wicked Bead and devoured it.
Then…
Amid the looks of so many people, the Wicked Bead disappeared in the air. The hole in space healed quickly. It was as if the Wicked Bead had been swollen by a giant beast.
“How?!”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement was not the only one shocked. What was that skill that the Asmodian Lord had used? Was it about space Profound Meaning? Was it of the ninth rank given its powers?
“Yes!”
“All hail the Asmodian Lord~”
“All glory to the Asmodian Lord~”
The four alien races chanted loudly. Many of them were seized with passion and zeal. Even the Barbarians, the Voodoo Race and the Feather Race were looking at the Asmodian Lord with admiration and reverence.
“Continue to attack the city!”
The Asmodian Lord stood proudly in midair. He glanced through the pale-looking warriors in the city and disappeared.
“Bang~”
In Jiang Qiling’s hand, a jade talisman suddenly cracked, which brought a bit of life back to her pale face. There was a glint of delightful joy in her eyes. She whispered to Patriarch of Law Enforcement, “Lu Li has sent back a signal. He is fine and tells us not to worry.”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement was relieved to hear so. If Lu Li died at this moment, then there was nobody that could stop the Asmodian Lord. The human race would then be doomed.
“If Lu Li is okay, where is he now?”
Jiang Tianshun squinted. All of a sudden, he said with astonishment, “That move from the Asmodian Lord, did it look like Spatial Transference? Once, one of our chosen warriors had learned this Profound Meaning.”
“Spatial Transference?”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement nodded, “Yes, it did. If that is the case, then we have a big problem. It will only be a matter of time before our city falls…”
Jiang Tianshun and Patriarch Lei gave each other a grieved look. Every time Lu Li showed up, he would be transferred by the Asmodian Lord so that the alien races could continue to attack at the city. Because of the Voodoo Poison, nobody dared to go out. It was only a matter of time before the city was breached.
Once that happened and there was no cure for the Voodoo Poison, then what awaited the human race would be a catastrophic nightmare.
