Allen, William, and the others looked at each other. This was the first time they had seen the projection of the Awakened ones' ancestors. Although the tall illusions above their heads were only a projection of their respective ancestral lives, they could vaguely feel the might and tyrannical power of their ancestral lives. At the end of each other's life source, these powerful existences crossed the unimaginable river of time through the genetic connection, casting down an image of their ancient existence at this moment.
One couldn't help but wonder, at the beginning of the universe, how many formidable existences were there when the ancient times fell into desolation? What was the reason that caused them to wither to the extreme? In the end, under the dilution of time, the current life could only trace back to the source of their genes in order to come into contact with their figures.
A rough roar pulled Allen's attention back to the mountain path. The Saber Demon General moved. He dragged his broadsword and ran over. Every step he took, the mountain path would shake a little. Many mountain rocks were shaken by the might of the Saber Demon General's Origin Energy. The weaker ones disintegrated and fell down the cliff. The projection of the ancestor behind the Saber Demon General also opened his mouth and leaned forward, as if he was roaring silently to cheer for his descendants.
Kejess didn't move until the Saber Demon General was five meters away from him. Only then did the major hold his saber and stab it into the ground. As soon as the saber stabbed into the ground, the eyes, hair, and fists of the ancestor projection behind him suddenly lit up. A circle of lightning snake circuit was released from the major's saber, instantly spreading to the front and back of the mountain path, covering a huge area of nearly ten meters.
The major was at the center of the pattern.
When Kejess pulled out his steel saber, the entire circuit pivot array instantly turned into lightning. The dense lightning slapped towards the Saber Demon General like a wave. The Saber Demon General's movements became stiff. The electromagnetic field could generate high-voltage electric currents, interfering with the operation of the Origin Energy in the Saber Demon General's body, and even stimulating the operation of his muscles and organs, thus paralyzing the enemy's movements.
The only one who wasn't affected was Kejess. With a push of his foot, a bolt of lightning shot out from the soles of his feet and slashed down at the Saber Demon General from above. The tip of the Steel Eagle Saber spat out a dazzling bolt of lightning, looking like an extension of a long saber.
At the end of the saber, lightning pounced. A powerful stream of air burst out from the Saber Demon General's chest and turned into a thunderous roar from his mouth. The roar was like a tangible object, suppressing the electric waves of the electromagnetic field beneath his feet.
The broadsword was raised, and the edge of the sword even drew out several milky white streams of air. One could see how heavy and powerful this sword was. The general first used the middle of his sword to meet the lightning, shattering the lightning that Coggess had spat out from the tip of his saber. When the tip of the sword collided with the blade of the long saber, Kejess felt as if the long saber had collided with a mountain. Not only could it not split open the mountain, it was bounced away by the mountain.
From this, it could be seen that this general was inclined towards strength.
This was normal in the Blade Edge Demon World. These ferocious Devil Cultivator had always advocated strength, and the path they displayed was almost always the type of peerless ferocity. As for the Origin Energy ability, it had become a supplementary ability. Only a small number of Demon Dwellers were proficient in ability transformations. These Demon Dwellers were usually the shamans of tribes, or even the high priests of the ten tribes.
Coggess was not discouraged by the general's sword. Lightning suddenly wrapped around his body. He was in midair, but he stopped slightly in violation of the laws of physics. Then, he rushed to the ground like lightning and circled behind the general. This series of movements was completed in a flash. When Coggess circled around the enemy, the Saber Demon General's broadsword didn't even have time to be retracted.
The saber rose again, and lightning spat out. This time, the Saber Demon General obediently ate this saber strike. The armor on his back shattered, and blood light soared into the sky. The general gritted his teeth and leaned forward slightly. The broadsword didn't retract, and just turned around. The blade of the sword swept backwards with extreme difficulty as if it was carrying ten thousand tons of seawater. The blade of the sword trembled, and bursts of explosive sounds rang out in the air. In Coggess's perception, the space caused the Saber Demon General's sword to produce an obscure fluctuation. The entire space seemed to be pressing down on him in this direction, and its momentum was terrifying.
Coggess frowned slightly. Although the strength of an Awakened was not enough to break through space, the Saber Demon General slashed with pure brute force, but he had the power to affect space. The power of these Demons could not be underestimated!
The saber bounced up, and Coggess brandished it with his left hand, dancing out a delicate saber light. The Saber Demon General was extremely slow, and he was extremely fast. Fast sabers versus slow swords, both of them going to extremes. Every time Coggess brandished his saber, the blade would spit out azure lightning. These bolts of lightning struck the broadsword of the Saber Demon Sword Army, but they were like silkworms spinning silk, gradually wrapping around the enemy's sword momentum. The broadsword of the Saber Demon General had already slowed down to its limit, and the great power that had originally affected space had also been dissolved bit by bit.
When the general's broadsword pattern didn't move at all, Coggess let out a long howl. Thousands of saber lights converged into a saber that was raised high above his head. The projection of the ancestor behind him pressed down on the steel saber with both hands, and the steel saber spat out a surge of lightning, reaching three meters straight. Coggess bounced up and slashed down, dragging lightning as his saber momentum fell. It was as if a bolt of lightning had descended from the sky, and its momentum was astonishing.
The Saber Demon General shouted loudly, and a few strands of blood popped out from his eyes and nose at the same time. A thunderous explosion rang out from the broadsword. The blade of the sword moved again, and like a bird in a rubber cage, it leapt up briskly to meet the lightning and thunder that Coggess had descended from the sky!
At a critical moment, he forcefully dispersed the Origin Energy that Coggess had used on his sword. He risked his injuries to earn a chance to regain his freedom. However, Coggess attacked with all his might, while the Saber Demon General forcefully counterattacked, far from it. The moment the saber and sword collided, the projection of the two ancestors also collided fiercely in midair. The Thunder Titan punched the chest of the Saber Demon Phantom, while the other party used a strange long saber to strike the Titan's left shoulder.
The collision of the virtual images was undoubtedly a clash of Origin Energy. Instantly, the entire mountain path was filled with explosive sounds that made one's eardrums hurt. Coggess slashed at the general's broadsword with his saber, and the lightning on the saber shot out. The Saber Demon General was covered in lightning, and all the hair on his body burned. His copper skin quickly turned black and scorched. Lightning spread along his body to the ground. Wherever it went, the ground rocks cracked and exploded, spitting out sand and stones.
The general roared. At this moment, the broadsword was raised upwards. He lifted his saber and sent Coggess flying.
In midair, Coggess spat out a mouthful of blood mist. He landed on the ground and took a few more steps back before he could stand still. He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, thinking that he had the upper hand in all his calculations. Unexpectedly, the enemy's casual counterattack had the power to injure him. These Saber Demons, even if they were of the same level, were definitely not easy to deal with.
Nearly half of the Saber Demon General's body was scorched by the lightning that Coggess had drawn from the Titan Phantom. As soon as his body moved, the charcoal-like part of his body split open. Blood dripped from it, making it look terrifying. However, the general didn't seem to notice as he roared and stabbed his broadsword into the ground. Blood-red Origin Energy poured into the ground along the sword, hedging against Coggess's electromagnetic field. Immediately, the ground covered by the electromagnetic field exploded one after another. Dust and smoke filled the air, and the electromagnetic field had already been broken.
The general raised his sword to attack. At this moment, dense gunshots rang out from behind him, and two tyrannical auras were approaching. The Saber Demon General knew that it was not good, so he raised his sword and attacked. Coggess took a deep breath and used his remaining Origin Energy to defend without attacking. Not long after, the two majors sent by Blood Eagle Base as reinforcements arrived. The Saber Demon General immediately became one against three, and he was killed to the point of abandoning his armor in a few breaths.
Aiming at an opportunity, Coggess wanted to end him with a single knife. Unexpectedly, the Saber Demon General threw his sword at Coggess and used the broadsword as a spear. The blade of the sword carried a strong force, and its might was unstoppable. Coggess could only dodge first. The Saber Demon General took the opportunity to pounce on the gap he had revealed. He pounced towards the void outside the cliff and fell down the foot of the mountain.
A faint explosion came from the foot of the mountain. Allen and the others rushed to the side of the mountain path and looked down. The general did not die immediately. He stood up and walked a few steps before finally kneeling on the ground and dying from serious injuries.
Coggess and the other two majors looked at each other and smiled bitterly at the same time.
Who would have thought that the Saber Demon General would be so brave that he would not yield to the enemy's saber even if he died?
A fierce battle ended here.
If it weren't for the fact that there was a Beast Fang Mountain nearby, Allen and the others would have no chance of surviving the attack of the Saber Demon Army this time. Now, it was another outcome. The Saber Demon General died in battle, and the remaining Saber Demon soldiers and dozens of Wolf Cavalry took advantage of the enemy to escape. Right now, the two majors of Perry and his men were cleaning up the battlefield. As for the ten or so survivors of Allen, they were sent back to the base.
When Allen was carried onto the transport truck on a stretcher, he happened to see the soldiers burning the Saber Demon's corpse and war chariot. The Saber Demon's chariots were filled with the smell of primitive tribes, but after reading Windsor Bellow's diary, Allen knew that the seven strongest alien races in the Yordon Domain were not inferior to the Federation in terms of technology. There were even some aliens whose technology was not comparable to that of the Federation.
For example, Mechanical Star Omega.
Even though they were in the same star domain, the technological level of the aliens was uneven. Among them, the most backward were the Blade Demons and the Jana people on the Dark Star. Putting aside the Dark Star, let's talk about this Nether Domain Star. Judging from Windsor Bellow's notes, the core technology of the Saber Demons was in the hands of the King and the Ten Tribes. This was the reason why they were so prosperous.
As for the other tribes, they only obtained some superficial technology from the ten tribes and then developed it on their own. The biggest flaw in a tribal civilization like the Saber Demon was the inheritance of knowledge. The ten tribes controlled the most core technology, and because the tribes were powerful, they were able to pass down knowledge from generation to generation. As for the other tribes, once they were annexed by other tribes or destroyed in war with humans, the knowledge they possessed would dissipate with the wind.
Blood Hawk Base was located at the rear of the entire battlefront, and only small and medium-sized tribes would be contacted here. Therefore, what Allen saw was almost the most primitive side of the Saber Demon.
Windsor Bellow's diary pointed out that the Federation suspected that the Saber Demon's technology came from some ancient inheritance. This was because in the hundred years of dealing with them, the Saber Demon's technology had not improved significantly. This made people suspect that the war and interstellar travel technology they possessed came from the afterglow of some ancient technology, not from their own creation.
Perhaps even the Saber Demon itself did not understand the principles of these technologies, so it was unable to innovate and could only copy and use them. If this point of view was true, then who left ancient technology on this planet? Or perhaps the ancestors of the Blade Demon Cultivators were not as brutal and bloodthirsty as they were now, and they had once displayed a brilliant technological civilization?
