Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Yang Ling attacked decisively at the critical moment. He cast Binding Space and enveloped the entire battlefield, then led Hydra, the bald Mammoth Butler, and the rest of the group in launching a lightning-fast attack.

Whoosh...

Following Yang Ling’s violent cry, a thick Crystal Mist suddenly enveloped the entire battlefield, creating a formless, blanketing pressure. The wanderers realized that it had not much of an impact on them after recovering from their surprise, only that their vision was slightly obstructed. Compared to them, the Abyssal Demons trembled, their power and speed decreasing drastically.

Space Bind!

“Quick, get into formation, quick!” The leader of the evil demons gave a hasty order after he saw the thick Crystal Mist. The sudden appearance of the thick mist and the heavy pressure made him instinctively feel an unprecedented sense of threat; Yang Ling, who was carrying the Battle Soul Blade on his back, gave him huge pressure!

The feeling Yang Ling gave off at first glance seemed to imply that he only had abilities at that of a Mid-level Deity. However, upon closer inspection, one would notice shreds of an obscure energy ripple. It felt as though he was an unparalleled fighter who was hiding his abilities. The circulation of the energy ripples throughout his body was rather similar to that of the leader of the Abyssal Demons. It was also deep beyond comprehension, so obscure that it is beyond his understanding.

Under the orders of the Evil Demon Leader, the three Evil Demons quickly moved toward each other. This was especially so for the Evil Demon furthest away from the group. He accelerated time and time again in his fear, clenching his teeth as he exerted all of the energy he had in his body. Unfortunately, his speed and power had decreased drastically under the effects of the Binding Space, and he could not outrun Yang Ling, who had alarming speed, no matter how hard he tried.

“Soul Explosion!”

An explosion-like roar sounded by the ears of the last Evil Demon. In that instant, he heard a buzz in his ears, his consciousness turning hazy. It was as if he had just woken up from a million-year slumber. Following that, he felt a sharp pain all over his body as icicle-like arrows pierced through his armor, leaving deep wounds on his body.

A freezing wave of chilly air containing cold, sinister energy entered his body, coiling around him like a venomous snake. In that instant, his limbs turned numb and cold. It was as if even his brain matter had been frozen into ice, much less his blood. A needle-like piercing pain spread out from within his body.

Ahh...

After a momentary daze, the Evil Demon reacted quickly, letting out a pathetic wail before quickly charging toward where his leader was. In the wake of his death, he erupted with alarming speed. Unfortunately, he was still one step too late!

Thump...

A ray of red light flashed past in the air, and the giant head of the evil demon fell onto the ground.

With his alarming speed and terrifying strength, Yang Ling had sliced open the throat of the Evil Demon with one stroke. Taking advantage of the momentum, he had then cleaved off the entire head of the other party. He then waved his right hand and sliced open the Evil Demon’s chest along with his armor, digging out his divinity.

A perfect surprise attack!

He first used the Space Bind to drastically reduce the Evil Demon’s speed and power, then used Soul Explosion to attack his soul before freezing his body with the Ice Wind Storm. Finally, he teleported to the side of the demon like a top-notch assassin and dealt the fatal blow!

His movement was fluid, without any hesitation or stuttering. Even the powerful Evil Demon Leader not far away had not managed to react, much less the Evil Demon that had met with the misfortune. There was no way for the Evil Demon Leader to save him!

Killing with one strike!

With the surprise attack, Yang Ling’s offensive capabilities left the Chief Elven Priest and God of Swords Gerald in the dust, even without having to use the Battle Soul Blade!

“Hahaha, great, that was a great kill!” After recovering from his shock, the Cutting Edge Warrior Richardson was elated, realizing that strong reinforcements had arrived. He let out a violent shout, then led the wanderers in launching a fierce offensive.

The two-thousand-meter long Nine-headed Snake Hydra that was hanging low in the air; The ten-meter-tall Mammoth Butler that had immense power; The God of Swords Gerald who could release a skyful of swords with his move Blade Storm... All of them gave the wanderers a large boost of confidence!

“Charge, kill them all!”

“Charge...”

...

Under the leadership of the Cutting Edge Warrior Richardson, the wanderers unleashed a torrential attack. Their eyes were red as they used all of their efforts to avenge their fallen comrades. They unleashed alarming battle capabilities while making use of Yang Ling’s Binding Space, attacking in groups using their numbers advantage!

In the blink of an eye, the three Evil Demons became covered in blood, sustaining injuries all over their bodies. Even the Evil Demon Leader that had abilities at the peak of a High-level Deity was no exception, being unable to fend off the fierce attacks of the Cutting Edge Warrior Richardson. It was a bitter struggle!

Under the restrictions of Yang LIng’s Binding Space, the gap in abilities between the two parties widened, creating a one-sided battle. Coupled with the cooperation between powerful fighters like Hydra, Butler, and the God of Swords, the rest of the three Evil Demons were no match for them.

“Exorcising the souls of Evil Demons is one of life’s most enjoyable things!”

Yang Ling let out a cold smile as he walked quickly to the side of a corpse of an Evil Demon. He then pressed his hand onto its head and silently recited a Wizard Mantra, casting the high-level Soul Tampering Technique. Soon, a spout of black smoke wafted out of the Evil Demon’s head before being absorbed into Yang Ling’s body. In that instant, Yang Ling obtained a huge burst of energy as if he had just consumed a great elixir, the Crystal Mist surrounding the battlefield becoming even thicker.

The soul of an Evil Demon with abilities of a High-level Deity is much stronger than a thousand, or even ten thousand souls of Level Surpassing Magical Beasts!

Roar...

After being hit fiercely by the Cutting Edge Warrior Richardson’s sword, the chest of the Evil Demon Leader turned bloody. He charged from left to right, attempting to lead the remaining two Evil Demons in escaping the embattlement of the group. At the same time, he let out a loud roar, his voice spreading far and wide, urgently calling for the Evil Demons patrolling the area. Soon, a faint reply came from the horizon.

“Quick, charge together, kill them immediately!”

“Charge forward together, quick!”

...

The wanderers flew forward, all of them using their best attacks as they unleashed a torrential attack on the three Evil Demons still bitterly holding on. The roar coming from the distance was getting clearer and louder. It seemed as though a large group of Evil Demons was approaching them after receiving the news. There might not be another chance for them to avenge their comrades if they did not kill these three detestable Evil Demons now. In fact, they might even die here!

“Coil of Life!”

Seeing the urgent situation, the Chief Elven Priest, who was wielding a magical staff, clenched her teeth and unleashed her most powerful ability. She waved her hand and summoned a thick mass of vines, coiling them around the Evil Demons as if they were dumplings. Taking advantage of Yang Ling’s binding space, she instantly rendered the other party immobile. They could not even move their fingers, much less retaliate.

“Fatal Blow!” The God of Swords Gerald had strong chemistry with the Chief Elven Priest, striking the group with his sharp longsword before turning into a bolt of silver light and pouncing toward the immobile Evil Demons.

Whoosh...

The God of Sword was immensely fast, his entire body piercing through the chest of an Evil Demon like a sharp pick. He flew a distance forward after the impact before somersaulting backward, landing on the top of a tall tree. He had his sword in his right hand and the divinity of the Evil Demon in his left. He had killed the demon in one strike! The several-hundred-meter tall body of the Evil Demon only fell onto the group three seconds later, pushing dust into the sky.

“Great, another one!” Yang Ling teleported to the side of the Evil Demon and instantly subjugated the soul of the other party. Abyssal Demons were extremely powerful, and their divinities were very precious. However, to Yang Ling, who was a Great Soul Wizard, the soul of the other party might be even more precious than their divinity.

The Soul Crystal in his brain had expanded dramatically after having just absorbed the souls of two Abyssal Demons with abilities of a High-level Deity, spewing out Crystal Mist that had become even thicker than before!

“Tonic, this is a great tonic that makes one even more excited than heroin does!”

Yang Ling was filled with energy, his lust for battle pulsing. He was filled with confidence and anticipation for the future. As long as he could absorb the souls of a large number of Abyssal Demons, he believed that it would not be too long before he could become a high-level Soul Wizard, or even a Wizard Deity, much less a mid-level Soul Wizard!

Whoosh...

Seeing that the three Evil Demons had fallen one after the other and that the situation was getting more and more dire, the crafty Evil Demon Leader tilted his body to avoid the heavy attack of the Cutting Edge Warrior Richardson, then let out a feint before retreating in a fluster. He took the brunt of a few attacks as he charged out of the group’s embattlement, clenching his teeth as he ran. He then let out a loud roar, urgently summoning his reinforcements that were closing in on the area.

He had not been able to fend off the torrential attacks of the many wanderers, and he had struggled bitterly against the heavy attacks of the Cutting Edge Warrior Richardson. Yang Ling, who was carrying the Battle Soul Blade, had made him immensely fearful, nearly scaring the soul out of him. In his fear, he unleashed alarming speed and power, forcefully charging out of the group’s embattlement and out of the radius of the Binding Space at the cost of being injured.

The technique Yang Ling had used to absorb the souls of two Evil Demons had made him remember an ancient legend, a terrifying legend that would cause even the leader of the Abyssal Demons to tremble!

“Chase, chase after him!”

“Don’t let him escape, chase!”

...

The Cutting Edge Warrior Richardson let out a loud roar, slicing off the head of the last Evil Demon that had lost the will to fight with a stroke, then led the group in hot pursuit of the heavily injured Evil Demon Leader.

The roars coming from the horizon were getting louder and clearer. It was clear that a large group of Abyssal Demons was flying over to the area quickly. It might be a small team of Evil Demons or a battle squad of Evil Demons with massive numbers. They would definitely die if they were surrounded by the reinforcements. However, in order to avenge his fallen comrades, Richardson’s eyes were red with fury as he engaged in hot pursuit. He desperately wanted to turn the crafty Evil Demon Leader to dust!

Perhaps it was his last burst of energy, or perhaps he had managed to tap into his full potential with the threat of death, the Evil Demon Leader became faster and faster despite being heavily injured. He flew past the vast field like the wind, leaving the group behind in the dust as he widened the distance.

Roar...

A line of black figures appeared on the horizon after a roar was heard, looking like a tidal wave. The group looked over to discover that they were all Abyssal Demons, each one of them donning heavy armor and wielding giant scythes. A realistic ball of purple flame was tattooed on each of their foreheads.

The Evil Demon Army, under the leader of the Abyssal Demons, whose reputation instilled fear in everyone’s hearts, was swarming over into the area!
