Chapter 216: Chapter216-Instantly Annihilating the Demon Race Army
[Demon Race Commander Azmodan]
[HP]: 800 billion
[Attack]: 42 million
[Defense]: 35 million
[Skills]: Abyssal Battle Spirit Summoning · Demon Domain Descent · Ten Thousand Souls Devouring
He looked down at the tens of billions of human soldiers below, his eyes filled with contempt.
"Humans as insignificant as ants dare invade my Abyss?"
"Since you are all courting death, I shall grant your wish."
Azmodan raised his hand, and a ball of pitch-black light condensed in his palm.
In the next second, that light exploded. An even more enormous battle spirit emerged from the void!
That battle spirit was a thousand zhang tall. Its entire body was condensed from pure abyssal demonic power. Its face was savage and hideous, and it held a massive sword burning with black flames.
[Abyssal Battle Spirit · Avatar of Destruction]
[HP]: 2 trillion
[Attack]: 100 million
[Defense]: 80 million
The battle spirit swung its giant sword.
Boom!!!
A black sword aura swept out horizontally. In an instant, hundreds of thousands of human soldiers were reduced to ashes within the sword light!
Blood poured down like a torrential rain.
The human army collapsed in an instant.
"Retreat! Retreat now!!"
The commander roared himself hoarse, but his voice sounded so powerless amid the heaven-shaking screams.
The soldiers fled in all directions, fear devouring everything.
Azmodan stood with his hands behind his back, sneering again and again.
"Run? Do you think you can escape?"
The battle spirit raised its giant sword once more, aiming at the densest part of the human army.
All the human soldiers closed their eyes in despair.
"It’s over..."
"We’re going to die here..."
"Someone... who can save us..."
Just then—
An icy sneer suddenly rang out from the void.
"A mere abyssal wretch dares act arrogant before my human race?"
The voice was not loud, yet it clearly entered the ears of every living being on the battlefield.
Azmodan’s expression changed drastically, and he suddenly turned his head.
The void tore open, and a figure dressed in a white-gold military uniform stepped out with his hands behind his back.
There was not the slightest aura leaking from his body, yet he caused the air across the entire world to freeze.
John’s avatar had arrived.
He stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at the five-hundred-zhang-tall abyssal demon race commander. The corner of his mouth curved upward.
"A mere abyssal wretch thinks it is worthy of acting arrogant before my human race?"
Azmodan’s gaze sharpened. The blood-colored runes on his four massive horns flickered faintly.
His eyes locked firmly onto this human who had suddenly appeared before him.
He had never seen him before.
Azmodan had encountered almost every powerful human expert on Hess Continent.
But this person before him...
His aura was restrained to the point of near nothingness, yet Azmodan’s abyssal instincts were frantically warning him of danger.
"Who are you?"
Azmodan spoke in a deep voice, his tone booming like thunder.
John did not answer.
At that moment, a furious shout suddenly erupted from within the demon race army.
"Arrogant human! How dare you disrespect the commander!"
"Kill him!"
A demon race general covered entirely in black scales waved his arm and led several billion demon race soldiers under his command surging out like a black tide.
[Demon Race Centurion Darkscale]
[HP]: 50 billion
[Attack]: 3 million
[Defense]: 2.5 million
Several billion demon race soldiers, each of them above level 300!
They blotted out the sky and covered the earth. From the ground, the air, and even beneath the earth, they surged out at the same time and surrounded John completely.
Azmodan did not stop them.
He watched this scene coldly, intending to use them to test this human’s true strength.
John looked around at the demon race soldiers charging toward him with bared fangs and brandished claws. There was no expression on his face.
"Ants."
He calmly spat out a single word.
The next moment—
Two beams of crimson-gold light suddenly lit up in John’s eyes.
Death Dragonflame!
Two streams of dragonflame shot explosively from his eyes, rapidly spreading through the air. In the blink of an eye, they transformed into a sea of fire that blotted out the sky and covered the sun!
The skills unleashed by those demon race soldiers—
Whether corrosive poisonous mist, shadow arrows, or abyssal roars—
Were effortlessly crushed before the Death Dragonflame like paper.
"Block it! Block it now!"
Darkscale, who was charging at the very front, roared as he pulled out a pitch-black giant shield from his backpack, attempting to withstand the flames.
It was his trump-card S-rank defensive equipment, said to be capable of enduring the full-powered strike of a level 350 expert.
However, the instant the Death Dragonflame licked the surface of the giant shield—
Not even 0.1 seconds passed.
The giant shield, along with General Darkscale’s body, was reduced to ashes.
The fate of the remaining demon race soldiers was no different.
No matter what equipment they brought out or what skills they unleashed, before the Death Dragonflame, they were all nothing but a joke.
Wherever the flames passed, the demon race soldiers fell in swaths. Before they could even let out a scream, they turned into black smoke and dissipated.
A series of notification sounds rang beside John’s ears.

...
The notification sounds surged in like a tide, densely packed until they nearly merged into one continuous stream.
Several billion demon race soldiers were all reduced to ashes in just a few breaths.
The sea of fire dispersed.
John still stood with his hands behind his back, not even the corner of his clothes damaged in the slightest.
The ground beneath him had been burned by the dragonflame into a charred-black vacuum zone, and the air was filled with a nauseating burnt smell.
As for the demon race army’s originally dense formation, a massive hollow had now appeared within it.
Several billion demon race soldiers—
Completely annihilated.
"Good!!!"
No one knew who among the human army was the first to roar those words.
Immediately afterward, tens of billions of human soldiers erupted into heaven-shaking cheers at the same time.
"We won! We won!"
"Who is that lord? He’s too powerful!"
"Who cares who he is? He saved us! He is the savior of our human race!"
The commander trembled all over as he looked at that figure, his eyes reddening.
He dropped to one knee and shouted loudly, "Thank you, my lord, for saving us!"
Behind him, tens of billions of soldiers knelt in unison, their voices surging like thunder.
Azmodan’s expression finally changed.
He stared fixedly at John. The contempt in his eyes had already vanished completely, replaced by deep shock and...
Fear.
"Impossible..."
He murmured.
Among the several billion demon race soldiers who had died was General Darkscale, a trusted subordinate he had nurtured for many years.
That subordinate, who had followed him through a thousand years of campaigns, had actually failed to withstand even a single move from this human.
Azmodan’s chest heaved violently. An uncontrollable surge of rage and terror rose within him at the same time.
When had such a powerful being appeared among the humans of Hess Continent?
In the holy war a hundred years ago, nearly all of the human race’s top players had perished.
He had seen all those who remained, and not one of them was capable of threatening him.
But this person before him...
"This man absolutely cannot be allowed to live!"
