Chapter 114: Demon King Ao! That Shell Really Is Worthy of a Turtle!
How was it that a Fiend General seed no different from an ordinary mob in his hands?
Qin Cheng and Zhou Huahua both stared at Ye Ze in utter disbelief, as though they were looking at so kind of monster.
The two of them clearly rembered that when they had escorted Ye Ze to the Group Dungeon a few days ago, he had already been very strong, but he had still been far below the level of a Fiend General!
Yet now, he could kill one in an instant whenever he pleased?
Seeing the bewildered expressions on everyone’s faces, Ye Ze smiled faintly. “All right, I’ll leave the rest to you. I still need to head to the front line.”
There were still plenty of ferocious beasts and Magical Beasts left, but without the Soul-Siphoning Fiend controlling them, they were far easier to deal with!
“All right!” Qin Cheng nodded, his expression complicated. “We’ll handle it.”
Then Ye Ze rode the Magic Dragon and soared away.
“Just a few days ago, he was still a student who needed my escort. How is he this strong now?”
Watching Ye Ze’s departing figure, Guard Unit Captain Qin Cheng muttered under his breath.
But Zhou Huahua rcilessly exposed him:
“Captain, during the beast tide before this, wasn’t it also him who saved you and then went off alone to deal with the beast tide leader?”
“Uh...” Qin Cheng was instantly struck speechless.
...
Although he had resolved the trouble on the Blood-Red Plains, Ye Ze still found it a little regrettable.
“Too bad the one I ran into was only a Fiend General and not a Demon King...”
Aside from the greater amount of experience, what he wanted even more was a Demon King’s Origin Fragnt!
Judging from the Evil Ghost Mask, Ye Ze felt that a complete Origin Fragnt was probably no weaker than a myth-grade item!
And even if it was incomplete, it could still be absorbed by the Evil Ghost Mask and turned into Source Power...Myth Revival was about to enter its second phase, and by then, even more myth-grade Secret Realms would definitely appear!
Which ant the Evil Ghost Mask would beco even more useful!
Even though many powerful Demon Kings were still difficult for Ye Ze to handle, that did nothing to dampen his desire to challenge them!
At that mont, with the flight-speed bonus from King of the Sky, the Magic Dragon moved through the air at incredible speed.
Before long, they arrived near Linyuan City!
The closer they got, the more obvious it beca that the fiendish aura was much denser here! The battlefield had grown even fiercer!
But then, Ye Ze suddenly looked ahead.
“What is that!?”
On the ground stood a gigantic figure like a mountain, blocking the only road that led to Linyuan City. Its aura was terrifying!
Its appearance resembled a giant turtle, yet its enormous head looked like a dragon’s. Its black scales were covered in patterns, solid as stone, and when it lay on the ground, it looked like a moving mountain!
In the distance, over a thousand soldiers of the Demon Suppression Army were attacking it, yet they could not even leave a scratch.
It simply lay there, unmoving.
And beneath its feet, the Abyss’s power of corruption was slowly spreading through the land!
Another one trying to turn Linyuan City into a Contaminated Land!
Ye Ze frowned and activated Eye of Insight...
【King-class Fiend - Ao (Lv. 70)】
On the ground, among the thousand soldiers of the Demon Suppression Army besieging Demon King Ao, Regint Commander Chang Zhengping let out a furious roar:
“You damned turtle bastard!”
“If you’ve got any guts, stop defending and get up to fight!!”
Yet Demon King Ao remained completely unmoved. It blocked the road to the front line while steadily creating a Contaminated Land.
That was what gave the Demon Suppression Army the real headache.
If it had only blocked the path to the front line, they could simply have flown past it with other ans of transport. But the spreading Contaminated Land was sothing they could not ignore!
What was even more hateful was that Demon King Ao was thick-skinned and impossible to damage, and it refused to attack at all. It was simply lying there and blocking the way.
“Damn it! So you’re not moving, huh? Then open fire!”
“Second Battalion Commander!”
With a roar from Regint Commander Chang Zhengping, the commander of the Zhubei Regint’s second battalion brought up a giant technological cannon with his n!
The Fiendslayer Cannon, legendary six-star!
Every shell it fired consud an enormous amount of energy. If the situation were not this dire, Chang Zhengping normally would never have been willing to use it.
Yet after the Fiendslayer Cannon struck, Demon King Ao’s shell only suffered so light damage, and in the very next second, it recovered completely!
“What a damned turtle,” Chang Zhengping said through clenched teeth.
At that mont, Ye Ze descended from the sky atop the Magic Dragon.
“Commander Chang, have your people fall back. Let handle it!”
“Ye Ze!”
After not seeing him for a long ti, Chang Zhengping was startled with delight at first, but then let out a helpless sigh.
“You don’t understand just how absurd this Demon King’s defense is...”
“It has maxed-out health, defense, damage reduction, and health regeneration. It’s basically just one giant turtle!”
“Even if you manage to deal a little damage, it still won’t be enough to outpace one second of its regeneration!”
But Ye Ze only smiled faintly, entirely unruffled, as a glazed blue-white fla rose in his hand.
“Don’t worry.”
“So far, I don’t believe there’s anything that can block this!”
“That is...!” Chang Zhengping stared at the fla in shock, as though he had just connected it to so inside information...“Myth-grade!?”
“Quick! Entire regint, fall back! Leave the battlefield to Ye Ze!”
After only a brief hesitation, Chang Zhengping gave the order to withdraw, and the entire thousand-man Demon Suppression Army regint retreated swiftly and in perfect order!
At that mont, Ye Ze, now using Spiritual Energy, flicked his hand and lightly dropped a spark of Samadhi True Fire onto Demon King Ao.
In the next second—
“Aooo—!”
A scream rang out so violently that it seed to shake the earth itself!
Demon King Ao had remained indifferent to every previous attack, but the mont Samadhi True Fire began burning it, its face twisted in agony.
Samadhi True Fire was, without question, the most real damage Ye Ze had ever seen.
All of Demon King Ao’s defenses, damage reduction, and even its ridiculously thick health pool collapsed in an instant.
The flas continued to spread, burning Demon King Ao until it trembled nonstop.
The ground itself began to shake like an earthquake because of it.
“That damage! Holy shit!”
Chang Zhengping felt utterly refreshed at that mont, as though all the resentnt he had built up against that damned turtle had finally been vented!
After burning for a full half minute, Demon King Ao’s mountain-like body gradually dissipated, almost turning completely to ash.
Three golden pieces of equipnt fell from it, along with a turtle shell.
“That’s incredible, Ye Ze!” Chang Zhengping exclaid in delight. “I never thought you’d already beco this strong!”
At that mont, cheers and applause erupted from the thousand Demon Suppression Army soldiers behind him. They were one step away from throwing Ye Ze into the air in celebration.
On a battlefield, a powerhouse was an enormous boost to morale for any army.
But then Chang Zhengping suddenly beca lancholy. “If I’d known this back when I tried to recruit you, I would’ve pushed much harder.”
Hearing that, Ye Ze twitched at the corner of his mouth. “That’s not necessary, really...”
Then he hurriedly picked up the spoils.
Another Origin Fragnt he had been thinking about nonstop had finally fallen into his hands!
Although he had also spent quite a bit of Spiritual Energy, the mont Ye Ze saw what this Origin Fragnt, the turtle shell, could do, he felt it had been completely worth it:
【Origin Fragnt - Ao: Creates a shield with 100% damage immunity for 1 minute. Costs 100 Source Power.】
A one-hundred-percent damage immunity shield!
That shell really was worthy of a turtle!
Although there were certain forms of special damage, such as Samadhi True Fire, that could not be resisted through damage immunity, this effect was still extrely powerful!
And since this Origin Fragnt ca with an effect, it was clearly the stronger type. Even if it were absorbed by the Evil Ghost Mask, it would yield even more Source Power!
Totally worth it!
But just then—the heavens changed!
The sky, which had been bright only a mont ago, turned pitch-black the next, as though endless darkness had swallowed everything!
Ye Ze, Chang Zhengping, and the others all looked upward, only to see that an eye had appeared in the sky itself!
A blood-red vertical pupil!
Looking down upon the mortal world!
An indescribable sense of danger settled over everyone’s hearts.
Ye Ze’s brows drew tight. Instinctively, he gripped the turtle shell in one hand and prepared Shadow ld...“This is the Fiend Sovereign... Zhu Jiu?”
