Chapter 1872: Wounding Infernal Emperor Again
All of a sudden, she leaped up into the air, and she arched back like a drawn bow before hurling her Silver Dragon Spear toward the abyssal passageway like a bolt of white lightning.
Following the violent tremors, the abyssal passageway was only just beginning to return to a stable state, and it was able to begin devouring the abyssal energy on the battlefield again.
However, right at this moment, the Silver Dragon Spear descended, forcibly devouring a huge amount of abyssal energy. Furthermore, the spear was aimed directly at one of the two emperors of the Holy Spirit Cult, Infernal King Douluo Harosha.
At this moment, Harosha was facing Yuanen Zhentian in battle.
Not long ago, Yuanen Zhentian would’ve been no match for Harosha, but after receiving guidance from Er Ming, Yuanen Zhentian had made significant improvements. He still couldn’t match a veteran quasigod like Harosha, but he was able to hold his own for some time. After all, one had to remember that he possessed a suit of four-word battle armor crafted for him by Tang Wulin.
The Titan Giant Ape martial soul had exceptional defensive prowess to begin with, and that was further enhanced by his four-word battle armor, thereby making for a watertight defense that even Harosha was struggling to crack.
Right at this moment, the Silver Dragon Spear shot forth directly toward him, and he was instantly struck by an overwhelming sense of peril.
Having just devoured a massive amount of abyssal energy, the Silver Dragon Spear was glowing with scintillating light, and what threatened him the most was the fearsome spiritual aura imbued within the spear; this was a spiritual aura of such a high caliber that it was exerting immense pressure even onto him.
His spiritual power had reached the pinnacle of the Spirit Domain realm long ago, but he still hadn’t managed to take that step to ascend to the Divine Origin realm. However, this didn’t affect his ability to identify Divine Origin realm spiritual power, and in this perilous situation, he immediately took action.
He slashed his Infernal King Sword through the air, conjuring up countless projections as an infernal hell descended around him. He forced back Yuanen Zhentian, and at the same time, the 12 death cavaliers arranged themselves into a line right in front of him.Harosha reached out and laid his left hand onto the back of the last death cavalier in the line, and enormous infernal energy instantly erupted forth, connecting him with the 12 death cavaliers.
The death cavalier at the front of the line was also wielding a spear, and it made an upward swiping motion in the face of the oncoming Silver Dragon Spear.
However, no clash took place, and the first death cavalier’s body instantly shuddered, creating a chain reaction that sent tremors running through all of the subsequent death cavaliers.
Harosha’s expression changed drastically, and he instantly hurried back in retreat while defending himself with his Infernal King Sword, but Gu Yuena had hurled the spear with a vengeance, and it had just been enhanced by an enormous amount of abyssal energy, so it was no so easy to withstand.
“Clang!”
The Infernal King Sword blocked the Silver Dragon Spear head-on, but in the next instant, the sword was snapped, and the sharp point of the sword instantly pierced into Harosha’s shoulder.
The Silver Dragon Spear was deflected a little, but it still had considerable momentum, and it pierced through his chest to the right amid a huge spurt of blood.
Thankfully for Harosha, this was the Silver Dragon Spear, which was more geared toward elemental enhancement. If he had been stabbed by the Golden Dragon Spear instead, then he would truly severely debilitated if not killed.
Harosha let loose an agonized cry, and he instantly disintegrated into grey energy that dispersed in all directions to flee from Yuanen Zhentian.
Meanwhile, the Silver Dragon Spear vanished on the spot, and when it reappeared, it had already returned to Gu Yuena’s grasp.
Standing still in the sky, Gu Yuena was like an immovable monarch ruling over the entire battlefield, and everyone was thoroughly stunned by the power of that spear strike.
She had just slain the Spirit Sovereign, and now, she had inflicted severe wounds on Infernal Emperor. Her reputation was instantly elevated to unprecedented heights, surpassing even that of Tang Wulin.
Gu Yuena’s gaze was icy cold, and in the next instant, she turned her attention toward Ghost Emperor.
As soon as he was locked in her sights, Ghost Emperor felt a chill run down his spine.
He thought he had extensive knowledge on the state of the current Soul Master world, but he had no idea where Gu Yuena had come from.Since when was there such a powerful being in the Spirit Pagoda? Surely she wouldn’t be much less powerful than even the true god Demon Sovereign.
Furthermore, Tang Wulin was already able to oppose Demon Sovereign, and in light of all of this, the situation was rapidly spiraling out of control.
In the wake of the Spirit Sovereign’s death, the abyssal army had completely fallen apart, and despite their enormous numbers, they were nowhere near as threatening as before. Most importantly, the powerful beings of the human race were far more formidable than they had expected!
Gu Yuena took a deep breath to compose herself. She knew that this wasn’t the time to be putting herself under the limelight like this. She slowly put down her Silver Dragon Spear, then sat down on the ground with her legs crossed, pretending that she had to recover her energy.
There were still many abyssal creatures on the battlefield, but not a single abyssal creature dared to come within a kilometer of her, and that was sufficient testament to just how stunning her display of power had been.
Without the presence of the three Spirit Dragon Kings, Wu Zhangkong and the others were finally able to reclaim the first mountain that had been taken over by the abyssal army, and they were able to stabilize the defensive line with the assistance of the air units.
Xie Xie emerged out of thin air before turning to look at Gu Yuena in the distance with a stunned expression. “When did Gu Yue become so powerful? I reckon she’s even more powerful than Boss!”
Yuanen Yehui glared at him in response. “So what if us women are powerful? She’s always been a little ahead of Boss.”
Xie Xie sighed, “I only hope that she won’t abandon Boss now that she’s the chairwoman of the Spirit Pagoda. If she does that, I can only imagine how heartbroken Boss would be.”
Everyone else was also rather concerned upon hearing this. They had all witnessed Leng Yaozhu and Leng Yulai’s mental manifestations, and at the very core of all of these issues, love was the primary instigating factor.
Shrek’s Six Monsters were comprised of three pairs of lovers, and as they looked into one another’s eyes, they developed a greater sense of appreciation for each other.
Misunderstandings really were the cruelest things in this world.
Wu Zhangkong’s eyes were also filled with sorrow. If only she were still by his side! His eyes narrowed slightly as he cast his gaze toward a figure in the sky, and burning fury was instantly ignited in his heart.
The four heavenly monarchs of the Holy Spirit Cult were comprised of Dark Blood Demon, Dark Phoenix, Dark Bell, and Dark Hummingbird, and this Dark Hummingbird was the person Wu Zhangkong hated more than anyone else in this world.
As the leader of this group, he had to focus on the greater good and stabilize the second defensive line first. In reality, he had already caught sight of that abhorrent man as the four heavenly monarchs emerged with Demon Sovereign. Even though it had been many years since their last encounter, the intense hatred was still fresh in his heart.
If it weren’t for him, Long Bing wouldn’t have died, and he wouldn’t have left Shrek Academy as a result.
In a sense, he had betrayed the academy in the past, but not only had his teacher not punished him, he had been welcomed back with open arms.
Among the four heavenly monarchs, Dark Hummingbird was ranked second only to Dark Blood Demon.
