959: Chapter 306: Ruler of the Black Demon Country, Demon King Salina (Part 1) 959: Chapter 306: Ruler of the Black Demon Country, Demon King Salina (Part 1) The music suddenly transformed, from its previous long and steady majestic melody into something soft and delicate.
Gaosuba’s left hand swiftly pressed the strings, his right hand using the “Phoenix nods” technique to break the notes into four beats per measure, achieving an effect of repetitive consistency that continuously moved the music forward.
This was indeed the third phase of “Ten-Sided Ambush,” known as “Calling the Roll.”
The deadly atmosphere began to shift to one that was sharp and domineering.
The aura of the Golden Arms, Iron Horse permeated the entire field, causing all lords to stand involuntarily, while Weiya slowly took steps toward where Gaosuba and his summoned creatures were positioned.
The rhythm of “Ten-Sided Ambush” grew stronger and more distinct.
After “Calling the Roll,” it entered into phases of “Arranging the Troops” and “Moving the Squadron.” Under the influence of the music, the air seemed to thicken, the immense pressure making the lords’ breathing bee labored, their eyes flashing with a blood-thirsty red light.
The effects of “Ten-Sided Ambush” were slaughter and madness.
The overpowering music was assaulting their spirits, erasing their rationality and bringing out the most primal aspects of these Abyssal creatures.
The Abyssal creatures of the Demon King rank merely felt the pressure, which wasn’t too severe for them, but the lords were already struggling to withstand it.
Those who were relatively weaker, their bodies’ death energy had already started to fluctuate violently with their emotions.
Suddenly, the tense atmosphere lightened as if all the enemy lines had disappeared.
However, before the Abyssal creatures could relax, a series of subtle, clear sounds began emerging deep within their spirits.
The sounds, quickening, then slowing, were light yet persistent, as if the enemy army had ceased their loud advance and was instead moving stealthily and quietly.
Although the previous fervor was gone, the music at this moment fully displayed the quiet and tense atmosphere unique to the prelude of a great battle.
This was the “Ambush” just before the climax of the musical piece.
The pressure nearly intensified exponentially; simultaneously, Demon Kings on the high platform let out a low roar.
They didn’t understand what was happening, but the restlessness of the lords around them made the Great Demon King, Xi Ya, sense that something was amiss.
However, it was now impossible to stop Ye Yinzhu.
Having entered the “Ambush” phase of “Ten-Sided Ambush,” under the overwhelming pressure of Ye Yinzhu’s intense Soul Fluctuation and spiritual power, the lords had already begun to riot.
A two-headed blue Abomination was the first to explode in fury.
With its robust arms, it swung fiercely, sending a nearby Wicked Scythe flying as it released a massive burst of death energy.
Its attack, like a fuse, spread with astonishing speed in an instant.
The flames within the spirits of the Abyssal creatures seemed to be ignited, their eyes releasing a very intense light.
However, that light was full of madness and slaughter, and they could no longer remember where they were, as various attacks began to erupt.
The Female Witch, being one of the highest order among the Abyssal creatures, was the least affected and managed to restrain themselves from starting a battle.
But just because they weren’t pletely maddened did not mean madness would not affect them.
Perhaps it was because the Abyssal creatures of other races in the Dark Demon Country had been oppressed by the Female Witches for too long.
As madness and slaughter became the dominant theme, those foreign lords, after a brief turmoil, almost all charged at the Female Witches.
Suddenly, the entire scene descended into chaos.
The music started to bee short and powerful, the clangorous tones ringing out continuously.
The rhythm became stronger and more concise, contrasting sharply with “Ambush” and appropriately depicting the sound of weapons clashing, as if on a battlefield where conflicts collided, blades met spears, dragging the listeners into a scene of gleaming swords and shadowed spears.
As the conflict further intensified, both in emotion and atmosphere, it foreshadowed that localized skirmishes would escalate into an all-out war.
The climax of “Ten-Sided Ambush” had finally begun.
Loud booming sounds began to rise in the Heart of the Emperor’s Domain of the Dark Demon Country.
The chaos of the Abyssal creatures fighting each other spread like a plague into deeper realms, a sense of panic and madness permeating continuously.
The climax had finally menced, with short, powerful clangorous sounds escalating to another level.
“Intermittent Sweep,” “Rolling Strum,” and “Sweeping Wheel,” the three major techniques of the Zither Sect alternated rapidly.
Meanwhile, Gaosuba’s fingers also began to emit clear snapping sounds.
The Soul power and dark elements that Ye Yinzhu had infused into him were too overpowering; under such plex techniques, his hands were nearing collapse.
The rhythm of the zither music produced a diversity unseen before, vividly depicting the grand scenario of a massive battle with clear, layered, and lifelike tones that also contained a hint of desolation, further stimulating the deepest defenses in the hearts of the Abyssal creatures.
By this time, no Abyssal Lord rank creatures could remain lucid, not even the Demon Kings; a deep red glow had been added to everyone’s profound gaze.
The first among the Demon Kings to take action was the Seventh Demon King.
The severe injury of the Ninth Demon King and the death of the Fourth Demon King had a huge impact on her.
Driven by the music, the murderous and crazed thoughts in her heart were the first to be unleashed, as she directly charged toward Gao Suba in the center of the arena.
The sudden chaos on the scene finally made Xi Ya react.
True to her status as the strongest among the Demon Kings, she forcibly suppressed the negative effects brought by the music, bellowing loudly, “Gao Suba, you stop right there.
Everyone, stop him.”
The Demon Kings who still had the strength to fight appeared on the battlefield almost simultaneously, rushing toward Gao Suba, led by Xi Ya, Jing Ya, and Wei Ya.
The surging Sun Moon Ice Rings were almost continuously emitted, directly enveloping an area of hundreds of square meters around Gao Suba, including the summoned creatures.
With so many Sun Moon Ice Rings erupting simultaneously, the effect was absolutely terrifying.
In almost an instant, the Abominations, Demon Spiders, Wicked Scythes, and Ghouls summoned by Gao Suba were purified under the horrific Sunless Fire of the Sun Moon Ice Rings.
However, at that moment, they lost sight of Gao Suba.
The music had stopped, yet the effects produced by “Ten-Sided Ambush” were not so easily dispelled.
The chaos at the scene directly affected the actions of the Demon Kings.
They couldn’t even find traces of Gao Suba before being drawn into the fights happening around them, as some of the Lords engulfed in madness began to attack them as well.
The Lords were the most powerful abyssal creatures of the Black Demon Country, the highest ranking existences.
Each one possessed formidable strength, and once they launched their attacks with full force, the effect was absolutely devastating.
The Witch Clan began to counterattack when they were suddenly attacked and immediately found themselves in a passive position.
Witches, during real battles, always had strong defensive abyssal creatures like Abominations guarding them.
But today, the witches present were here for the Demon King’s succession ceremony and all were Lords, so naturally, they couldn’t bring their entourages.
And not all witches were capable of casting the Sun Moon Ice Ring.
When the extremely fast Wicked Scythe Lord, Ghoul Lord, and Demon Spider Lords launched their frenzied attacks, immediately, a dozen or so witch Lords were collectively killed by them.
The scene plunged into chaos.
Although the Demon Kings tried to get them to stop, their joining only made the entire scene even more chaotic.
Had Gao Suba left?
Of course not.
At this time, Gao Suba, controlled by Ye Yinzhu, was in a corner, and the Little Dragon Lady, disguised as Havanah, stood next to him.
With the soul connection, Ye Yinzhu easily found her.
Surprise shone in Havanah’s eyes, unmistakable.
Looking at the chaotic scene, she muttered to herself, “I didn’t expect your zither music to have such an effect.
Will they fight to the death?”
Ye Yinzhu shook his head, saying, “I don’t know.
It depends on whether the Black Demon Country can stop them.
To make them stop, first their spirits need to be calmed.
And these Demon Kings are probably not up to that task.
Although I am using Gao Suba to play the music without the aid of a Super Divine Artefact, using abyssal creatures for the ensemble has produced an effect that can at least reach First Rank Sub-God standard.
Calming the souls of these Lords would be impossible without surpassing Third Rank.
And although the three great Demon Kings are of Sub-God rank, their soul strength is still not enough.”
While Ye Yinzhu and Little Dragon Lady were talking, suddenly, an extremely sharp, yet not intense sound abruptly arose, sounding like the dawn light piercing through darkness, filled with strong penetrating power.
Ye Yinzhu’s expression slightly changed, “Here it es.
Didn’t expect it to be so soon.”
The sound came from the direction of the heart of the Emperor’s Domain, and it was evident without asking where it originated.
The chaos here could be said to be shaking the foundations of the Black Demon Country.
No sooner had that piercing sharp sound appeared than the bodies of the Lords, still in states of killing and craziness, trembled violently.
The madness in their eyes was swiftly replaced by fear, and the chaotic battle astonishingly ceased in an instant.
Some abyssal creatures even halted their attacks right in front of each other and took no further action.
The three great Demon Kings also seemed visibly relieved.
They slowly bowed toward the heart of the Emperor’s Domain.
