Chapter 745: Abyssal Purple Fire
Roar...
Just as Yang Ling and his party appeared on the peak of the Heavenly Pillar Mountain, low but powerful roars came from the sky, one roar more powerful and clearer than the next. Immediately following, a fiery cloud appeared in the sky, as if dyed a bloody red, and it floated towards the Heavenly Pillar Mountain like lightning. An Expert with red hair down his shoulders stood on the cloud, and his whole body look like it was engulfed in a cloud of flames, unmoving like a spear. He had not yet reached, but already, he was giving out a powerful oppressive aura.
After getting the news, the Abyssal Demon Lord himself rushed over here!
“Natalie!”
“Kansas!”
...
Looking at Great Black-horned Demon Natalie beside Yang Ling, the Abyssal Demon Lord accelerated yet again, surging forwards like a cloud of fire. In her excitement, Great Black-horned Demon Natalie also flew out and charged forwards, hugging the Abyssal Demon Lord tightly. In that moment, tears flowed like rivers, hundreds of thousands and millions of years of bitter waiting and heartache all surged out of their hearts!
The ill-fated couple was finally together after suffering through many trials, starting from the Great Battle of the Ancient Deities and Demons from a long time ago.
“Sigh, I’m too late. I did not expect Miss Natalie to already have someone in her heart from long ago!”
The Poison Dragon King, who had transformed into a hunky man, sighed. From the moment he laid his eyes on Great Black-horned Demon Natalie, he was stunned. After being tamed by Yang Ling, he rapidly started to make his moves on the great Black-horned beauty. At first, he had thought that he could get her due to them being so close, but unexpectedly, he got nothing to show for his efforts even though he had tried everything he could think of.
“Poison Dragon, you still have a chance. Don’t give up so easily!” The Corpse Wizard King was serious, pretending to having gone through much in life. He then lightly continued, “A relationship can be nurtured bit by bit. Abyssal Demon Lord Kansas and Natalie had been together for hundreds and thousands or millions of years to get to today, to be able to hug in public. If a macho man does it yourself, you’ll be able to get it done in about hundreds of thousands of years. You must not give up so easily!”
“That’s right, if hundreds of thousands of years is not enough, then millions of years, or tens of millions of years. If the great Black-horned beauty does not agree, then pester her. Keep on grinding at it. One day, you’ll be able to hold her at her waist and bring her everywhere!” The Golden Roc was trying hard to rein in his smile, singing the same tune as the despicable Corpse Wizard King.
“Yes, keep grinding and grinding, and the deed will be done!” The Dark Dragon King at the side sidled over, wiggling his eyebrows and winking at the Corpse Wizard King and gang. He continued to try and tempt the Poison Dragon King, or in other words, dealing blows to the Poison Dragon King who had lost in the love department.
...
This bunch of heartless fellows!
Looking at the Corpse Wizard King and gang, who looked all serious but were laughing so much deep down that their belly cramped, and looking again at the depressed Poison Dragon King, Yang Ling smiled. Basically, Magical Beasts that were just tamed were more proper and serious in the first few months, but very quickly, they would get led astray by the old fellow, the Corpse Wizard King.
By nature, he was humorous and fun-loving and a little bit on the bad side. The Corpse Wizard King, who was also a little perverted, was like a big vat of dye, leading the whole of the Magical Beasts Army astray!
Roar...
Just as the Corpse Wizard King and gang were bantering in harmony, the Abyssal Demon Lord pushed aside the great Dark-horned beauty, suddenly, leaving her to figure out what was going on. Regardless of the consequences, he let out a loud roar and charged towards Yang Ling like lightning, saying, “You damned bastard! How dare you imprison Natalie for a few hundred years. Go to hell!”
Whoosh...
Abyssal Demon Lord Kansas was like an enraged tiger that had come from the mountains, not listening at all to the great Dark-horned beauty’s exhortations. He was murderous and could not wait to burn Yang Ling into a pile of ash. He accelerated again and again, his speed getting faster and faster!
“Hmph, looking for death!”
The Corpse Wizard King, the Golden Roc and gang, who were just laughing together a moment ago, suddenly charged forwards together, quickly getting into the Demon God Battle Formation in sync. In an instant, a ring of light red glow surrounded their bodies, emitting a terrifying aura, ready to fire in an instant!
“No... Don’t, don’t!”
Looking at the Corpse Wizard King and gang who were waiting to strike at any moment, and looking at Grand Wizard Houtu with his long hair down his shoulders and his clothes moving without any breeze, Great Black-horned Demon Natalie let out a loud cry. She charged towards the Abyssal Demon Lord without regard for the consequences, hoping to stop this fellow who became enraged without a full understanding of the situation.
No one knew better than Great Black-horned Demon Natalie how powerful the five tiger generals were after combining with the Soul Essence of the primitive beasts, and how terrifying Grand Wizard Houtu was. Though Abyssal Demon Lord Kansas was very powerful, he was definitely no match for the combined forces of the Corpse Wizard King and gang!
Whoosh...
Even though he was extremely furious, Abyssal Demon Lord Kansas was not a brainless fellow. After sensing the terrifying aura that the Corpse Wizard King and gang were emitting, he quickly came to a stop, his eyes widening and the flames surrounding his body became bigger, fully preparing him for battle.
“Hehe, fresh blood and soul. I like!” The Corpse Wizard King cackled in laughter, raising the Death Horn in his hand while speaking.
“Thirty, 70. No, at least half for each person!” The Golden Roc licked his lips. After combining with the Soul Essence of the primitive beast, the Green Dragon, he had gotten a taste of Soul Tampering.
...
With four against one and with Yang Ling and Grand Wizard Houtu holding the line, the Corpse Wizard King, the Golden Roc and gang were sure to win. If not for the sake of Great Black-horned Demon Natalie, they would have already stacked everyone’s power to charge upwards and tear the Abyssal Demon Lord to shreds. As long as Yang Ling gave the command, they would not mind swallowing an Ultimate Expert’s soul, which was hard to come by!
A great battle was about to begin!
“All of you come back!”
Just as the Corpse Wizard King, the Golden Roc and gang were raring to go, Yang Ling gave a command, instructing everyone to retreat. After pausing for a while, he lightly said, “Kansas, when we were in the Demon Palace, all of our Magical Beasts Army combined were not your match. But now, things are different. No matter how powerful you are, you’re definitely no match for us!”
“I regret not sinking the entire Moon Island back then!” Abyssal Demon Lord Kansas’ eyes were bloodshot. “Even if I am not your match, I also want to have a great battle with you. If I win, I bring my Natalie away with me. If I lose, I will chop my head off for you!” He said viciously.
Abyssal Demon Lord Kansas might seem to be acting rashly, but in actual fact, he was thinking very clearly, rapidly choosing the method most beneficial to him and directly challenging the Lord of the Magical Beasts, Yang Ling. No matter what, he was unwilling to let his sweetheart Natalie, whom he had waited for so long to become someone else’s follower!
“Hmph, you are not qualified to challenge our lord!” the Corpse Wizard King and the Golden Roc coldly snorted. They stepped forward together, ready for action and coldly staring at Abyssal Demon Lord Kansas who was not far away.
“Kansas, no, listen to me. Let me finish. It’s not what you think!”
The great Black-horned beauty’s eyes were blurred with tears. She stood sideways in front of Kansas, trying her best to prevent the terrifying clash from happening. She was unwilling to let Yang Ling come to any harm and was also unwilling to see Kansas being hurt by the many Wandering Divine Beasts. She was even more worried that Grand Wizard Houtu, behind Yang Ling, would suddenly charge forwards and tear her sweetheart, Kansas into two while he was still alive. If she had known this was going to happen, she would have rather the Wanderer Alliance to not send a message to Kansas, and would have rather spending the rest of her life alone.
Grand Wizard Houtu’s violent act of tearing the Lich King and the Long-haired Ancestor into half while they were still alive not only caused his enemies to lose their courage upon hearing about it, even the numerous Magical Beasts around Yang Ling got goosebumps down their spine upon thinking of it. Natalie was no exception!
Kansas, if you want to challenge me, then you’ll have to win against these few guards beside me. Then we’ll talk!” After falling silent in thought for a while, Yang Ling commanded the Corpse Wizard King and the Golden Roc to retreat, then sent the Mother Empress onto the battlefield to test the power of the Abyssal Demon Lord.
In the Wizard Pagoda’s Space, he had already seen the ultimate skill of the Corpse Wizard King and the Golden Roc. Now, it was his turn to see the ultimate skill the Mother Empress had acquired after combining with the Soul Essence of the primitive beast, the Vermillion Sparrow. It was also just the right time to see how powerful Abyssal Demon Lord Kansas really was. It was like killing two birds with one stone!
Howl...
The Mother Empress, who was already raring to go, let out a loud roar and flew straight into the sky with a “whoosh,” transforming into her humungous true form. Compared to before, there was an additional tattoo of a soaring Vermillion Sparrow in the middle of her forehead. Her densely packed and hard scales glimmered darkly, and her whole body gave out tendrils of pure energy ripples of the Fire Element.
“Natalie, get out of the way!”
Abyssal Demon Lord Kansas shoved the great Black-horned beauty, who was standing in front of him, away. After muttering a few words, a pure red giant scythe appeared in his hand. After letting out an explosive roar, he leapt towards the Mother Empress who was in the air, the red glow on his body becoming brighter and brighter. Within a few miles’ radius, the temperature suddenly spiked like a volcano had erupted.
Thud...
The Abyssal Demon Lord might be as fast as lightning, but the Mother Empress was not slow either, and may even be said to be slightly faster. Without any regard to the blazing hot flames shooting up into the sky, she ruthlessly smacked him with her claw with a “whoosh” sound. The impact was deep and strong, knocking away the giant scythe of the Abyssal Demon Lord. Then she suddenly accelerated again, directly smacking the latter on the head. She was so fast that an extremely ear-piercing sonic boom accompanied her, and the Abyssal Demon Lord who was inches away, did not have time to dodge at all!
With this smack by her claws, no matter how hard the Abyssal Demon Lord’s head was, it was feared that he would end up like a smashed watermelon!
“Good, quick, smack him with your claw!”
“Amazing, I did not expect the Mother Empress to be so quick!”
...
Witnessing the Mother Empress’ demonstration of her awesome capabilities, the Corpse Wizard King, the Golden Roc and the rest cheered loudly. At the same time, there were also stunned by the explosive speed of the Mother Empress in that instant. Even the Golden Roc, who had leveled up to a Twelve-winged Golden Roc King, was no exception!
“What to do... What to do?” Different from the cheers from the Corpse Wizard King and the rest, Great Black-horned Demon Natalie was so nervous that her eyes were blurred with tears, full of anxiety in her heart.
“Natalie, don’t worry. This is just a sparring battle!”
With a Soul Sound Travel, the anxious Great Black-horned Demon Natalie heaved a sigh of relief. With Yang Ling’s promise, she could at least be assured that the Mother Empress would not kill the other party. At the crucial moment, Yang Ling might even be able to stop the battle between the two parties.
“Abyssal Purple Fire!”
The Abyssal Demon Lord let out a roar, gritting his teeth and casted a Fire Element Mysterious Law just in time, but it exhausted much energy. In an instant, a big patch of purple flames appeared in the sky. Within a radius of ten miles, the air became so hot that it was difficult to breathe. The Mother Empress, bearing the brunt of the attack, was all the more completely engulfed by the flames in the sky, instantly drowning in a sea of purple flames.
“Hahaha, go to hell. No one is able to survive the Abyssal Purple Fire. No one ever has!” The Abyssal Demon Lord laughed loudly, staring right at Yang Ling, whose expression had changed greatly.
Years ago, in order to absorb the purple fire in the Abyssal Dimension, he did not know how much suffering he went through, almost paying with his life. Over the years, countless enemies had died this way. Even though the Mother Empress had densely packed scales all over her body, he firmly believed that faced with the Deep Abyssal Purple Fire that could incinerate anything, the Mother Empress’ scales, would not have any effect, no matter how hard they were. But in his excitement, he did not notice the changes happening within the purple fire.
