Chapter 529 - Abyss Lord and Satan
When a horrifying image that was full of flames holding a greatsword appeared in Chen Rui’s memory, he subconsciously shuddered.
That’s a terrifying existence that can instantly kill a Demon Overlord!
Although the trial of ancient alchemy civilization was a dream created by the territory kingdom, it was the simulation of the real war between the alchemy civilization and the Abyss Family in the past. In reality, the power of the Abyss Family was only stronger than in the illusion. As the top powerhouse of the Abyss hierarchy, the terrifying figure holding the greatsword definitely had the ability to instantly kill a Demon Overlord!
What appeared in front of Chen Rui’s eyes now was also not an illusion. Strictly speaking, it was not a cave in the great barren mountain, but a real abyss similar to the one he encountered in the bottom of the Crystal Valley. It was surrounded by blood-red lava, and there was no exit.
Chen Rui’s only way out now was the [Star Gate], just like how he escaped from the abyss of the Crystal Valley, but the nearest star point of the [Star Gate] was in the White Feather City. Once he returned to the White Feather City, today action was tantamount to a complete failure. As long as Sicali woke up, he would definitely abandon this base and it would be difficult to find him next time. This way, the entire planning of the White Feather Estate would also be in vain. It would directly affect the Dark Moon’s life and death.
The destructive breath ahead was still far away moments ago, but the distance was already close in an instant. Chen Rui gritted his teeth and he did not activate the [Star Gate]. There was an item in his hand; a red badge engraved with a strange snake-like pattern. It was given by Satan when he was at the Mountain Seckred.
Chen Rui knew that Satan’s gifted badge and the trace of Demi-God’s power was not out of real kindness, but for now, summoning Satan was the best solution.
A figure appeared in the front of his line of sight which was about 200 meters away. It should be possible to see clearly with Chen Rui’s eyesight, but this figure looked vague. It vaguely had a back bone wing and was holding a greatsword. image. The only clear feeling was the kind of hatred that was enough to destroy the soul.
It’s really an abyss lord!
If it’s a gap demon or berserk demon, it’s fine. Even if I run into blazing flame witch, I still have the power to fight, but this one in front of me can kill dozens of Demon Overlord giant crystal beasts in an instant!
Even if the abyss lord was not in the range of [Analytical Eyes], he could guess that the [Analytical Eyes]’s Analysis would undoubtedly be “extremely dangerous with the kind of hatred breath alone that spanned across space and distance!”
Chen Rui was secretly shocked. He immediately concentrated his power on the snake head of the badge in his hand. The center of the badge suddenly glowed with a dark red light. When he lightly applied force, the whole badge broke apart.
The destructive breath surrounding the figure did not approach nearer and just looked at the intruder from a distance. Despite the distance, the intangible murderous aura and oppression still made Chen Rui’s mind tremble.
Facing such a terrifying enemy, it would be a lie to say there was no fear in his heart. However, he would die faster if he was only fearful. Chen Rui calmed his heart completely. His S+ level spirit power was fully activated, and all his energy was concentrated on the figure that represented death.
A feeling of extreme danger suddenly surged in his heart, then the highly concentrated spirit power seemed to sense a terrifying greatsword wave coming toward this side. His vision suddenly became extremely distorted as he felt a terrifying sharp qi braving a strong death breath rushing toward him. A huge crack appeared on the solid ground. The magma along the way splashed like a fountain under the pressure of the terrifying wind.
If Chen Rui was slashed by this sword, then even if he had the ability of [Regeneration] and [Astral Form], his body and soul would be completely annihilated under this terrifying sword qi.
When Chen Rui had a warning sign in his heart, his hands suddenly bloomed with a faint light that had been charging for a long time. He used it to block in front of him without hesitation. It turned out that this action made in advance saved his life. The sharp qi hit his hand faster than he expected, and an unstoppable tremendous pressure spread onto him instantly. Chen Rui felt an unprecedented crisis and concentrated his mind power on his hands. The terrifying sharp qi, which was enough to cut off the mountains, was constantly being dissolved and diverted under the mysterious skills of [Star Diversion]. The nearby rock walls and ground were cracked and deformed due to the terrifying power.
The abyss lord’s simple wave of sword not only had a terrifying power, but the aftereffect was beyond imagination too as it was continuous. Chen Rui’s nerves became more and more tense, because the 10-second time limit of [Star Diversion] was about to end, and the power of this sword had no tendency to weaken at all!
The light in Chen Rui’s hand finally disappeared, and the indestructible sharp qi instantly slashed his body in half without any hindrance. No, it was countless pieces. More precisely, it was countless flies flying.
God-Eating Mask’s [Demonic Flies Transformation]!
The demonic flies flew, avoiding the terrifying range of the sword aura, then they regrouped into Chen Rui’s body. At this time, the terrifying sword aura gradually disappeared.
This is just a random slash from 100 meters away!
Chen Rui’s complexion became more dignified. The power of the abyss lord far exceeded my imagination. Even the powerhouses of the peak stage of the Demon Overlord such as Catherine, Paglio, and the Dark Elemental King did not give me such terrifying pressure. Could it be that the abyss lord’s power has reached...
Mountain Seckred was almost tens of thousands of miles away. Chen Rui didn’t know when and how Satan would come. Now that he had made a decision, the only thing he could do now was to wait! Facing this terrifying abyss lord!
Now that the 2 life-saving skills of [Demonic Flies Transformation] and [Star Diversion] had been used up, if such a slash came again, Chen Rui was not sure if he could dodge or resist it!
Therefore, he was about to do a bold thing – Take the initiative to attack!
There were countless stars around Chen Rui’s body, and various physical qualities were immediately strengthened. [Galaxy Territory] could be repeatedly activated within the effective time. At the same time, the blazing heat around was replaced by a kind of chill. The boiling molten lava gradually subsided due to the sword qi. It was actually frozen into ice incredibly, and the ice quickly spread toward the abyss lord.
The abyss lord, who was still indistinct, didn’t attack or defend. It just stared at the extending ice, seeming to be thinking about something.
With a blow, Chen Rui’s body was already burning with black flames, and it turned into a manic red color in the blink of an eye. A huge Scorching Dragon roared out of the red light and pounced toward the abyss lord ferociously. Its momentum was amazing.
The abyss lord still didn’t move. Just as Scorching Dragon was about to get close to his body. Chen Rui’s consciousness sensed the abyss lord moved, then the greatsword stuck on the ground disappeared for a moment and returned to the same position.
The Scorching Dragon rushing momentum suddenly paused, and time seemed to freeze. Almost in the next blink of an eye, the huge Scorching Dragon’s head split. The whole winding body was like an opened zipper, neatly splitting by an irregular curve. The ice that was initially frozen because of [Winter Territory] also quickly began to crack and dissolve according to the split. They were replaced by blood-red boiling magma.
In the state of [Royal Star Transformation], the strongest attack [Scorching Dragon Kill] launched with [Galaxy Territory] in conjunction with [Winter Territory] was completely defeated. After the terrifying sharp qi destroyed the Scorching Dragon, it still rushed toward Chen Rui unabatedly.
The power of this sword was far above the previous one!
Chen Rui fought fiercely with Sicali for a long time, and this [Scorching Dragon Kill] cost a huge amount of power. The state of [Royal Star Transformation] had begun to be in an emergency state. Facing this terrifying second sword, [Demonic Flies Transformation] and [Star Diversion] could not be used again. The situation was extremely critical. Fortunately, he still had a shield which was the “half” Demon Shield of Illusive Demon Shield, one of the Demon Realm’s 7 artifacts.
With a shift of mind, a dark gold shield with simple patterns on one side had appeared in Chen Rui’s hand. At the same time, a translucent blue shield appeared around his body. As the protective shield had just been activated, the swift sharp qi had completely defeated the Scorching Dragon. Then, it shredded the protective shield without stopping, and it firmly slashed the side of the dark golden shield.
“Clang!“
The intangible sharp qi in the air and the vibration sound of the shield caused the nearby magma to show layers of ripples. Chen Rui felt like his body was dragged away by someone involuntarily.
Although the Demon Shield could absorb damage and replenish physical strength, the pressure of this blow was too great. The star-like armor cracked for the first time. The fragments were scattered in the air and disappeared along the way. Chen Rui’s body was pushed through countless magma by the huge force. Wherever it passed, the magma separated under pressure until stopped at a rock wall.
The armor on Chen Rui’s body was already shattered, and blood continued to overflow from his 7 orifices, covering the blood stains that had dried up under the high temperature. There was no trace on the Demon Shield, but his violently trembling hands could hardly hold the shield.
The power of a sword is actually so powerful!
If there was a third slash, the Demon Shield could stop it, but Chen Rui definitely couldn’t resist it. Is it really necessary to use the [Star Gate]?
When the abyss lord saw that the second slash was still blocked, it seemed even more surprised. Just as he was about to launch the third slash, the space suddenly became distorted. A strange wave of power rippled through the air, and Chen Rui’s heart moved as he put away the state of [Royal Star Transformation]. The Demon Shield also disappeared.
At this time, the space in the air seemed to be torn apart by someone, and an irregular opening appeared. A somewhat familiar figure of a man appeared in front of his eyes.
Race: Unable to determine!
Comprehensive Strength Assessment: Unable to determine!
[Analysis]: Extremely dangerous!
As a matter of fact, the [Analytical Eyes] already showed the display data when the space just cracked, then only Chen Rui saw the figure. This indicated that the real appearance of the figure was even before the vision was formed.
A very young man, who was just like an ordinary person, had handsome features and no terrifying breath like the abyss lord. This “ordinary” person integrated with the sky and the earth as one. No matter where he was, it gave people a kind of looking up feeling.
The Mountain Seckred Demi-God powerhouse, Satan!
Satan didn’t look at Chen Rui. At first glance, he targeted the abyss lord in the distance just like the way the blood red eyes of the abyss lord stared at him.
Chen Rui felt that the abyss lord seemed to move. The greatsword that was inserted on the ground was pointed to Satan, then he only saw the tip of the sword trembled slightly. Then, there were countless traces of fracture in the surrounding space. It made hundreds of slashes at a speed and power which couldn’t be seen by the eyes.
Chen Rui couldn’t help closing his eyes because his vision could no longer keep up with the opponent’s movements. He could only rely on the senses of spirit power to barely capture a few traces of trajectory.
The 2 obviously faced each other in this scene, but he felt that the space close at hand was separated into countless independent spaces.
Although the sword of the abyss lord was terrifying, Satan was more terrifying. Standing in the void, he had not moved, but he somehow caused the abyss lord to attack frantically at an unconventional speed.
Chen Rui felt that the abyss lord’s offense was more like a defense, and Satan, who hadn’t moved, was offensive.
The hatred breath of the abyss lord was fading. Finally, the breath burst out, and there was a violent shock in the entire space. Chen Rui opened his eyes and found that the abyss lord had disappeared. It was just blood red magma within a few hundred meters had been incredibly solidified into solid green crystals. There were many traces of cracks. In the center was an exaggeratingly huge crater spreading out which was also covered with green crystals. It seemed to be the trace of the abyss lord being killed.
When Satan lifted both hands gently, Chen Rui felt dizzy. The surrounding scene suddenly changed to full of verdant jungle. It seems a bit familiar- Mountain Seckred!
Chen Rui was very shocked: Satan “moved” the Mountain Seckred here? No, it should be a kind of phantasm, or it should be called the territory kingdom!
The phantasm of the Mountain Seckred seemed to be constantly devouring the solidified abyss blood sea, and the image of the blood sea gradually became thinner.
Satan had landed on the ground, and he glanced at Chen Rui faintly, “Simon... Let’s just call you so. You surprised me.”
“Greetings to Sir Satan!” Chen Rui bowed respectfully, showing a flattered look, “Sir Satan is overpraising. Thanks to your timely appearance to kill the terrifying monster, otherwise I will be dead.”
Judging from the battle between the abyss lord and Satan, the previous 2 slashes were not of full strength. Satan was able to completely obliterate Abyss Lord, so his strength was conceivable. Even though Chen Rui knew this Demi-God powerhouse had hidden motives, he still did not dare to neglect him. Satan only needed to move his fingers to destroy him, and he couldn’t even escape into the [Star Gate] in time.
“I didn’t kill that enemy. It is just a projection. If this projection becomes a real body, even I can’t destroy it so quickly.” Satan’s words made Chen Rui secretly startled. It has such a terrifying power despite being just a projection. Then the real abyss lord should be able to compete with a Demi-God. Even if it is not comparable to a Demi-God, it is far better than the Demon Overlord level.
Chen Rui felt that he had some new understanding of the strength levels above Demon Overlord. He heard Satan continue to say, “There are 3 things that surprised me. Firstly, your growth rate has exceeded my imagination. You absorbed the trace of my power essence so quickly. Your power actually reached the peak stage of the Demon Emperor, and your spirit power seems to have some kind of change. Secondly, you actually met the Abyss Family again. If it’s pure luck, it’s really astonishing. Thirdly, you can actually withstand the two slashes of the abyss lord which is difficult even for the peak stage of the Demon Overlord.”
Satan smiled slightly, “I won’t force you to explain, but this abyss projection land is a very delicious prey for my territory kingdom. Just tell me what you want. I can satisfy 1 condition.”
Condition? Chen Rui’s mind suddenly became active.
Turns out Satan’s motive is just to absorb more power from the Abyss Family, or is it that simple? What condition will Chen Rui ask for?
