"Your Majesty the Celestial Emperor, do you have any comments?" The Demon God looked at the dark-faced Qu Xuanzi with a triumphant smile.
The existence of a Demon Emperor would definitely complicate the two of them, especially Qu Xuanzi. If they chose to fight, then there would only be an imbalance. In the end Qu Xuanzi still had to fight the Demon God and the Demon Emperor at once. Even in the past, the battle of Qu Xuanzi and the Demon Emperor invited havoc. Can he handle it now?
Qu Xuanzi looked at Xie Ruo next to him. "You can hold on until I keep them busy?" He did not want to drag Xie Ruo further into battle. Fighting two people simultaneously was clearly more dangerous than just one.
But Xie Ruo only looked at Qu Xuanzi flatly, knowing the man's plan. "I'm not leaving."
Qu Xuanzi smiled wryly, unable to resist Xie Ruo's decision. "Good."
The Demon God smiled increasingly wider. "So it's decided." He glanced at the Demon Emperor, then gave him a hand gesture to immediately finish the two figures in front of him.
The Demon Emperor did not say anything more. He drew out his sword and disappeared in the shadow. Suddenly, the dark energy in the air rotated like the wind. Within a radius of a few kilometers, the dark energy radiated caused endless mass deaths.
The dark energy grew increasingly concentrated, dispelling the view and storing an invisible black figure. Iris Xie Ruo turned gray, so the dense dark energy did not affect his vision to see what the Demon Emperor could do.
"Look around you." Qu Xuanzi spoke beside him. Because the surrounding area was not very visible, the place felt quiet and dim as if it was in an illusion.
Xie Ruo nodded while putting on a vigilant position. The sword in his hand tightened, a cold flame burning illuminated a part of the surrounding area. The dark energy that covered the view actually bothered him to pay attention around despite already using his psychic abilities.
In Xie Ruo's view was indeed nowhere to be seen, but not in Qu Xuanzi's sight. It can see some dark energy roaming around looking for prey and killing it. When some of that dark energy approached, it instantly shattered him to pieces of air that settled down.
Xie Ruo knew that there was danger around him, but he was unable to see clearly. As soon as he felt something approaching, his sword swiftly swung and fended off the approaching dark energy. Unfortunately, all Xie Ruo saw was a shadow that flickered and disappeared. It seemed like it was an invisible attack made by the Demon Emperor.
Dark energies came over and over again as if targeting them simultaneously. Although attacks were easy to destroy, the number grew more and more uncontrollable. That invisible dark energy really left Xie Ruo at a loss as to what exactly he had destroyed. The longer the pressure drains the energy.
As much as possible the two of them stay together so that nothing bad happens. But suddenly the Demon Emperor appeared, darting out at high speed performing a direct attack against Qu Xuanzi. His pointed sword lit up, then faced head-on with Qu Xuanzi's sword set him apart with Xie Ruo.
Xie Ruo was still focused on the attacking dark energy despite knowing the Demon Emperor had launched an attack head-on. After completing the dark energy attack, he immediately teleported to help.
The strength of Qu Xuanzi and the Demon Emperor was balanced, it would most likely be easily utilized by the Demon God. As soon as Xie Ruo found out their location, he immediately left while unsheathing his sword.
Two swords clashing against each other unleashed explosive magic that caused the ground to shatter on various sides. When the red and gold light meet each other, the two magic cross each other and pass on a larger attack to the locked target.
Qu Xuanzi dodged the red magic, along with the appearance of several magic splinters behind him that shot towards the Demon Emperor like thousands of arrows. A cold flame emerged from the other side, fusing into the thousands of magic and forming an infinity of flames that pressured the Demon Emperor back several meters away.
Xie Ruo appeared on time and saw his decent work. But he still did not feel happy, as it was not the suppressed Demon God.
The figure of the Demon Emperor disappeared after the attack hit his body. Qu Xuanzi retracted all the magic he had launched while finding the position of the Demon Emperor that disappeared all of a sudden.
When he found out where the position of the Demon Emperor was, Qu Xuanzi stiffened and directly aimed at Xie Ruo who was standing a few meters away from him. "Ruoruo, be careful!"
Xie Ruo immediately reacted once the cold air flashed by quickly. He turned around while dodging the sharp blade that appeared, then repelled it with a sword before finally teleporting away.
Qu Xuanzi swung his sword the moment he met the Demon Emperor who attacked suddenly. Their battle was so rich and caused so much damage. Xie Ruo joined the battle and gave the advantage to his side to make the Demon Emperor feel pressured.
The attacks of two powerful divinities caused the Demon Emperor to dodge. The man flew swiftly to the other side to deal two consecutive strikes.
A black hole suddenly appeared in the middle of the fierce battle. Right in front of the Demon Emperor, appeared a huge black hole with vast suction power causing a great disaster for the nearby creatures.
The Demon Emperor instantly disappeared right then and there, Qu Xuanzi and Xie Ruo made a protection to keep the troops from getting into the black hole that sucked everything around it.
Such great suction power made the power of Xie Ruo suppressed to a certain stage. Because the opponent's power was far above him, Xie Ruo could only use his psychic power to control all the surrounding elements in order to help him lower the black hole's suction power.
Qu Xuanzi flew swiftly towards the black hole without being affected. Golden magic appeared around him, darting around the entire black hole which was getting more and more careless due to the energy changes Xie Ruo had caused.
"Don't joke. Asura, if you destroy it, you will drag your woman to shatter into it." The Demon God who was the figure behind the black hole laughed.
Qu Xuanzi narrowed his eyes. "I'm not kidding."
Qu Xuanzi put the highest pressure on his magic. An incredible explosion emanated from the black hole in the air, causing almost the entire battlefield to be affected.
The dark energy wandering around is getting less and less due to the explosion of a black hole. Everything that was absorbed in the black hole is now coming out in another more terrible form—chopped—causing fear to terrorize everyone.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
Shu Xin limped over due to the worsening wounds on her body. He leaned against the city wall, then looked at the quiet surroundings. There is absolutely no life because everyone is at war.
He continued on to his planned destination. He couldn't wait any longer to solve his problem Xie Ruo after being humiliated like this. If only he had not been injured which caused his strength to diminish, he could have easily killed Xie Ruo! He will not fail to call the light!
Therefore, he had to activate the altar right now!
Inside there, various runes were engraved around the walls of the dark room without any lighting. Shu Xin walked to the end, finding several torches that lit a fairly bright red magic light, displayed around the altar. Above the altar was a huge jewel that gathered darkness. The altar floor was a strange and intricate symbol, containing the blood flowing from all the deaths in the planned Middle World.
The blood flow was flowing right into the gems which were getting longer indicating the existence of a strong magic pressure. Even Shu Xin couldn't hold it in for too long because the energy within was too opposite of his soul.
Shu Xin smiled obliquely. "Isn't it just mixed blood?"
He approached, then used his blood to be dripped on the jewel. When Shu Xin's blood from her finger dripped, the black peemata showed a change in color from black to deep red. The blood flow underneath moved, being completely absorbed into the gem which increasingly showed a deep red color.
He was mixed blood, able to use a bit of his blood to trigger the reaction of the soul sacrifice altar. Just wait for the pure energy to be expended, as well as the actual sacrifice of mixed blood.
"Xie Ruo, I'll get what I have to get. In the end, I'm the winner." No matter who was to be sacrificed, he would regain all his strength as well as the pure energy he had long sought.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
Silver light radiated so brightly around the god party army. The soldiers who originally felt an overwhelming sense of fear, now turned into spirit as soon as they saw the white dragon figure floating in the air with a silver light that protected many troops from explosions.
The silver dragon landed, forming a female figure with its unchanging cold look.
Previously, Xie Rui and Qu Xuanzi had already agreed to destroy the black hole as well as protect the troops, as well as being able to increase the spirit of input.
When a black hole is detonated at the same time that Xie Ruo is controlling his energy, Xie Ruo should be killed by an explosion. But Xie Ruo would naturally not allow himself to die silly. He let go of the reins as soon as Qu Xuanzi started gesturing for an explosion, then went up into the sky to form a protection.
Although the effects of the explosion sent troops crashing far away, he managed to maintain protection so that they did not die. This impromptu and risky plan comes to mind once a black hole appears to suck a lot of people into it.
There is no need for discussion, because they already understand how to think each and what will be done—especially Xie Ruo.
The Demon God snorted annoyedly at her. Qu Xuanzi could believe in the small ability of Xie Ruo who had not even become a goddess. He felt he had to think of another way to solve it.
When he landed onto the ground and summoned the Demon Emperor, suddenly the ground shook and emitted an unusual red light. Everyone was agitated as soon as they saw a blood-red light piercing out from the ground as if it would suck them all in.
At that moment, the Demon God already had an answer as to why the battlefield conditions became like this. Someone has activated the altar!
Qu Xuanzi was also aware of this. Xie Ruo arrived by his side, his heart growing uneasy realizing that this situation should have been caused by activating the soul sacrifice altar.
"Shu Xin ...." Xie Ruo suddenly flashed that Shu Xin had activated it after escaping. He should have known the woman wouldn't just shut up.
"Something seems to be more in a hurry than me." The Demon God looked no problem, because in the end the altar did have to be activated.
Merely, he guessed that Shu Xin used her own blood to activate the altar. That makes him nervous. If it did not succeed in killing Qu Xuanzi or obtaining his son, it would be Shu Xin who would die from the backlash from the altar.
Hence, he could only use the fastest way to resolve this matter. First, he would target Qu Xuanzi's greatest weakness, Xie Ruo, to obtain his pure energy.
The Demon God made a dark mist that was much stronger than the dark energy of the Demon Emperor. The fog formed a huge storm, flying everything and attacking the two of them simultaneously.
According to Xie Ruo it was a ridiculous thing since the two of them could destroy an attack like destroying a black hole. But since the one attacking was a Demon God who would not use the old ways to fight against someone, it seemed like all of this was not as simple as an ordinary storm attack.
Several demonic beasts sprung up in large and powerful forms. They came out of the ground as if rising from the grave, then attacked blindly leveling the battlefield. Everyone was on guard, fighting desperately to fight back.
The huge attack in the middle of the storm left many troops dead instantly. Xie Ruo went to deal with the attacking demonic beasts, then asked the dragons to combine forces and kill them. But that was not enough, suddenly the Demon God appeared to attack him personally making Xie Ruo have to get out of the war area.
Qu Xuanzi was just about to go against the Demon God, but the Demon Emperor appeared to head him off. It seemed like the true plan of the Demon God was not to attack the entire army using fog and demonic beasts, but to separate the two of them to finish Xie Ruo off first.
The saint beasts were busy, in the face of the Demon God, Xie Ruo had absolutely no help. He dodged every attack of the Demon God that was launched. His movements were limited because the terrain that the Demon Emperor created was too large. He could not teleport, could only rely on his speed and agility to dodge.
"Are you going to keep avoiding? Where's your courage?" The Demon God sneered as he unsheathed his spear swiftly towards Xie Ruo.
Xie Ruo held the spear straightened towards him, then used a bolt of lightning to fend off the Demon God's spear, then kept a distance from being hit by a fatal attack.
"Then, why not fight Qu Xuanzi head-on? Are you scared?"
"Fearful?" The Demon God laughed. "Although Asura is a bit superior, I can kill him with blood poison. By the way what about your blood poison? Is it very fun?"
"Very fun, thank you." Xie Ruo stomped his sword which let out an even greater cold flame. The flames spread out in all directions, destroying everything around him. But it seemed that the fire had only slightly touched the Demon God without burning it.
The Demon God snorted. "It feels cold." He grinned, then released his magic back so that Xie Ruo had to retreat further to dodge.
He could not accept the attack of the Demon God, or he would die. If he remained in this disadvantageous situation, his energy would be exhausted and it would be the same as giving his own life to the Demon God. He must think of a way.
