Since he had found the key, Baiyi did not hesitate. He quietly left a few runes on the ground, and when the two of them separated from each other, Baiyi activated the rune formation on the ground.
This rune array only had one function, to interfere with the energy transmission in the air. When the array was activated, the two Demons were stunned for a moment. They lowered their heads to look at the imprints on their chests. It was no longer burning like before. The energy fluctuations they were emitting had also instantly changed from infinitely close to Holy rank back to normal Immortal rank.
No wonder Baiyi did not sense any Holy-level combat prowess from them. It turned out that they had relied on external forces to improve their combat prowess.
When the Hell Knight realized that the protection on him had disappeared, he quickly waved his hand at Baiyi and smiled apologetically, "Sir … It's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding …"
They were actually very afraid of the black energy. Every time they were attacked, the protection on their bodies would be reduced by half. While they were in awe of how powerful the black energy was, they knew that they could not withstand such an attack on their own. If it were not for the protection that came from behind them, they would have run away a long time ago.
With their outer garments removed, the two demons were no longer a threat to Baiyi. The black flames instantly engulfed them. No matter how hard they tried to maintain the shield to resist the corrosion of the Hellfire, their struggles were futile in the face of the absolute suppression of a higher power.
Baiyi did not look at them again. He continued to move deeper into the abyss. Behind him, the two corpses silently turned into dust.
Baiyi could not help but feel a little proud of himself for being able to defeat two powerful foes without having to use any more powerful techniques. However, he was more alarmed by the fact that his opponent's shield was able to resist his Void Energy. This meant that the Abyss Lord, who was protecting the two demons, was most likely an existence who had mastered some kind of high-level power. If he wanted to get rid of it before Mia could no longer hold on, he must not abuse his power at the beginning.
After all, every time he used more power, Mia would have to expend more Psychic Energy to maintain the formation. At the same time, she would have to endure the pain of having her body explode. If it was not necessary, Baiyi would never let her go through such pain.
Let's get this over with as soon as possible, Baiyi thought to himself. When he reached a distance where he could see the entire Mage Tower with his naked eyes, he halted his footsteps. At that moment, the Mage Tower was already surrounded by all kinds of demons. Due to the fact that there were three rifts that were directly connected to the Mage Tower, the density of the demons in the Mage Tower was probably the highest in the entire Arfin City.
The demons were anxiously circling around the rift that was sealed by Baiyi. From time to time, they would shout something in the demon language. The group of traitorous knights from the Judiciary Court had also gathered there. It seemed like they had already killed all of their comrades. Although they had committed such a demonic act, they still had to put on a noble expression on their faces as they scoffed at the demons, drawing a clear line between themselves and them.
A few of the judicial paladins had a worried look on their faces. It was obvious that they had sensed the fluctuation of Void Energy. As someone who often dealt with violators, they knew very well how powerful the Void Energy was. However, because they were in a place where the demons were gathered, they did not have the time to go out and investigate.
"That's even better. Two groups of enemies at the same time," Baiyi said. Once again, a black formation appeared on his chest and wrist. A steady stream of Void Energy was gathered into the formation at the lowest possible cost. This would make the whole casting process very slow but at the same time, it would minimize the damage to Mia.
The fallen knights had also noticed the fluctuation of energy. They anxiously shouted something, wanting the demons to search for Baiyi's hiding spot in the forest. But why would the demons listen to them? They continued to do whatever they wanted.
The fallen knights hated the fact that they did not have enough manpower. After all, they had lost a lot of their men in the previous civil war. Hence, they did not dare to act alone. Just when they were struggling to decide whether to fight or flee, Baiyi had already finished casting his spell.
"On behalf of the gods, I send down divine punishment," Baiyi chanted the last line of the spell in a low voice.
Suddenly, the clear sky was shrouded in darkness, causing the surroundings to darken. The fallen knights and the demons raised their heads to look at the strange phenomenon in the sky. All they could see was balls of black flames falling from the sky like raindrops.
The domineering Black Flames burned everything it came into contact with mercilessly. The area around the Mage Tower was instantly turned into a black inferno. The fallen knights and demons screamed in agony as they tried their best to defend themselves against the Black Flames. However, as long as a small spark of black flames touched them, the black flames would burn even more intensely until there was nothing left.
The hellish scene did not last long. After two or three minutes, the area around the Mage Tower had been cleared. Other than the tower, the trees, the grass, the huts, the paths, and the minions of the Abyss Lord had all been reduced to dust, leaving Baiyi and the Abyss Lord in a very dry environment.
"Still not coming out, huh?" Baiyi looked at the top of the Mage Tower. The evil energy was still there, but there was no longer any laughter. No one would be able to laugh when Baiyi was serious.
"Well, if you don't want to come out, then I'll help you out," Baiyi said. As Baiyi said that, a bolt of black lightning shot out from his palm. As it sped towards the Mage Tower, it twisted into a stream and slashed across the Mage Tower like a 40-meter broadsword. The top of the tower began to slide downwards at a slanted angle.
Baiyi had sliced off the entire top of the Mage Tower!
The top of the Mage Tower fell to the ground, creating a violent cloud of dust and a loud bang. Broken stones scattered in all directions, but Baiyi did not care about the rain of stones. Before the stones could even touch his body, they were vaporized by the Black Flames of the Void.
Baiyi's eyes were fixed on the figure that slowly emerged from the cloud of dust.
With the appearance of the silhouette, the quiet surroundings reverberated with a drumming sound. Baiyi knew that it was the heartbeat of the Demon Lord …
"Thump, thump, thump!" The Abyss Lord stood in front of Baiyi, stepping on his own heartbeat. He still had the appearance of a human, and his facial features were similar to Rodhart's. However, his body was covered with a layer of snow-white skeleton, and on his back was a pair of wings made up of eight tentacles. All of his limbs were in the shape of demon claws.
It was obvious that the Chief Judge was a devout believer in the demons. He had sacrificed himself to provide the Abyss Lord with a body that could be used.
Baiyi had to admit that this half-human, half-demon appearance was much more domineering than Baiyi's meatball appearance.
The Abyss Lord cast a contemptuous glance at the meatball in front of him and boasted, "I am the Lord of the Abyss, the greatest monarch in the entire Abyss! The entire Abyss is singing my name — Thaas! "
"Mortal! You have slaughtered my most elite subordinates, my most loyal soldiers! You will pay for this! "Thaas continued.
"Pay? It's on me. Come and take it! " Baiyi waved at Thaas in a provocative manner, but because he was still in his meatball form, to the onlookers, it looked like he was just twisting his body.
"Foolish mortals!" Thaas roared angrily. Suddenly, his feet exerted force, and a green flame erupted from his body, colliding with Baiyi's black flames. The shockwave caused by the collision of the two energies instantly smoothed the potholes on the ground. The loud noise was so loud that even the students who were far away could hear it.
When Baiyi began to exert his strength, Mia suddenly felt very uncomfortable. Her beautiful eyebrows were tightly knitted together, and her lips were tightly pursed. She could not say a word. She knew that this was the moment when Mr. Hope needed her.
However, she could not stay like this for too long. The Archmage, who was inside the hammerhead shark, darted around the girl anxiously. He could more accurately sense the situation in the distance, and he knew that his student had encountered a powerful opponent.
This opponent was the strongest opponent Baiyi had ever faced. His strength could no longer be measured by human standards. Right now, he was only using the simplest and most primitive method to fight Baiyi. However, after a few exchanges, Baiyi could feel that he was at a disadvantage. The Abyss Lord must be using another type of power. Although it was not as powerful as Void Energy, it was not limited in its output, and the beating heart of the Abyss Lord was constantly replenishing Baiyi's strength.
It was only because of the high level of Void Energy that Baiyi was able to suppress the Abyss Lord's strength that he was able to hold on. He had tried to counterattack, but he could not penetrate the Abyss Lord's armor.
The situation was not looking good.
"It must be using the Abyss Energy that only the Abyss Lords possess. This is a higher level of power than Demonic Energy. It does not have an obvious advantage in terms of strength, and it is not a battle of attrition. You must find its weakness before Mia can no longer hold on!" The Abyss Lord said anxiously. The outcome of this battle was not only related to the safety of Isythre, but also to the interests of the Voidwalkers.
Thaas paused for a moment. His human-like eyes glinted with admiration, and he extended a hand to Baiyi. "You may have killed many of my men, but I must admit that your strength is not bad. You're interesting, too. Submit to me! I will bestow upon you even greater power! Unparalleled power! "
