If there had been no ti limit on resisting the Outer Demons, the six other Star Lords could have more or less held their own Celestial Palaces, the only difference being how fast they cleared enemies.
But no one could forget that fifteen minutes after the Outer Demon Invasion began, three extrely powerful Outer Demon bosses would appear.
Once the bosses spawned, not only would the Outer Demons’ morale surge and their strength increase, but the bosses and the minions would also coordinate, unleashing far greater destructive force.
Right now, the one needing help most wasn’t Shangguan Yu and Wang Zong, it was the Celestial Sphere Palace!
The combination of the shikigami Snow Woman and Nurarihyon simply killed enemies too slowly. Nearly all the main damage output relied on Snow Woman’s Ice Storm.
Without revealing its True Celestial Demon Form, Nurarihyon’s attack thods were extrely limited, its main role was providing an illusion-based damage amplification buff.
And the True Celestial Demon Form was similar to the little dragonkin’s transformation into a giant dragon, both had extrely strict ti limits.
Lin Xun could at least switch into a healer Shell to heal the little dragonkin when its HP got low or swap to other Shells.
But if Nurarihyon activated its True Celestial Demon Form, it would die when the burst duration ended, and even ending the form early would also an death.
Therefore, the True Celestial Demon Form couldn’t be used as a routine damage skill, it was a trump card for short bursts only.
Lin Xun directed the Red Armor Army, relying on the cavalry samurai and battering rams’ charge power to carve a bloody path through the Outer Demon horde.
Then he dispatched troops to support the various Celestial Palaces, stationing the largest force in the Celestial Sphere Palace.
With so many samurai backing them up, Snow Woman and Nurarihyon felt their pressure lighten drastically, and their kill speed improved trendously.
Likewise, the other Celestial Palaces gained a massive boost from the Red Armor Army’s assistance.
However, splitting the Red Armor Army sowhat reduced its destructive output, and casualties among the low-tier foot soldiers began to mount steadily.
Ti flew by. Lin Xun had already wiped out all the Outer Demons in the Celestial Pivot Palace, and most of the other Star Lords had nearly finished clearing theirs as well.
“Ti’s running out!” Li Xingyue suddenly spoke up to remind them.
Lin Xun glanced at the clock on the wall, only one minute remained until the Outer Demon bosses spawned.
At this mont, the Valkyrie’s side was about to finish off the remaining demons, but Snow Woman and Nurarihyon still faced a sizable horde.
Of the others, only the pair of Shangguan Yu and Wang Zong looked unlikely to finish clearing before the bosses appeared.
Li Xingyue quickly said, “Du Cheng and I will pull one boss. Yin Linlin and Lu Caiyi will take another. The last one will be left to Lin Xun.”
“Once Shangguan Yu and Wang Zong finish their demons, they’ll head to the Celestial Pivot Palace at once to help Lin Xun focus fire on the boss.”
“Whichever team kills their boss first will imdiately support the others!”
No one had any objections, this was the most critical mont. As long as they could split up and defeat the bosses one by one, they could complete the Easter Egg Chapter!
Seeing this, Lin Xun swiftly adjusted his strategy, ordering the Valkyrie to assist Snow Woman and Nurarihyon.
anwhile, he controlled the mage Shell, using spells to clear the Valkyrie’s Celestial asure Palace rapidly.
A glowing spear ford of pure white script glead brightly as it shredded the remaining Outer Demons in the Celestial asure Palace.
And at that mont, the Outer Demon bosses appeared!
[A deafening roar erupted from the Demon-Subduing Altar!]
[A trendous bellow rolled across the sky as three colossal shadows tore open the rift’s seal and erged…]
[The three gigantic demon monsters were, ]
[First, the Yin-Yang Demon King – Cishi Masuoya, whose two heads showed anger and laughter.]
[Second, the Lustful Demon King – Suni Mita, whose body displayed both male and female sexual organs.]
[Third, the Supre Freedom Demon King – Mara, whose entire form was covered in pus and tumors and who excelled in manipulating flesh.]
[The Yin-Yang Demon King and the Lustful Demon King stepped forward to leave the Demon-Subduing Altar, but the Supre Freedom Demon King suddenly threw its head back and howled. Its massive, pustule-covered hand shot out toward the other two Demon Kings.]
[Halfway extended, the giant arm transford into countless entangled fleshy tentacles. Like a mass of writhing pythons, the tentacles wrapped around the two Demon Kings.]
[Piercing wails tore through the sky as the tentacles began sucking their flesh away with a corrosive, bone-lting force. In an instant, the two Demon Kings’ bodies were drained to nothing.]
[When the tentacles reverted to a massive arm again, the other two Demon Kings were simply gone. At the center of the Demon-Subduing Altar stood only the Supre Freedom Demon King, whose figure had grown even taller and more terrifying!]
[Mara, the Supre Freedom Demon King, threw its head back and howled again. The sonic waves of its roar shattered the clouds overhead and made the entire Demon-Subduing Altar quake violently.]
[It crouched low, its arms and legs splitting into countless tendrils as they lunged toward the remaining Outer Demon army…]
Shangguan Yu’s heart lurched. Aside from the Celestial Sphere Palace, the Radiant Sun Palace he and Wang Zong were defending still had the largest number of surviving demons.
The Supre Freedom Demon King was the leader of the Desire-Bearing Supre Freedom Demon race, the final boss of the ninth and last wave.
No one had expected the mont this final boss spawned, it would imdiately absorb the two bosses of the seventh and eighth waves, growing far stronger.
Worse still, Mara began absorbing the remaining Outer Demon army to boost its power further…
Shangguan Yu understood clearly: the boss absorbing the other two bosses was almost certainly a result of the difficulty escalation. But the boss continuing to devour minions was clearly the ga’s punishnt for all the Star Lords.
This was the penalty for failing to eliminate the Outer Demon army before the final boss appeared!
[Mara’s tendrils spread rapidly in all directions. Wherever they passed, the remaining demons dissolved into foul, reeking blood slurry, feeding the tentacles and making Mara’s body even larger and more horrific.]
[Every Red Armor samurai standing in the tendrils’ path was crushed into pulp and likewise devoured…]
In the blink of an eye, the Red Armor Army suffered grievous casualties, its total troop count plumting.
Lin Xun hurriedly clicked the item to cancel the summon. The loss of troops was secondary, mindlessly feeding the boss more power was an act of sheer stupidity.
He wasn’t the only one to withdraw his summons. Du Cheng, the necromancer, did the sa.
His undead army also failed to withstand the Supre Freedom Demon King’s tentacles. The weaker zombies and skeleton soldiers were unable to endure the assault.
Only a handful of elite undead, like hellhounds and the headless heavy cavalry, managed to avoid annihilation.
