Seeing the mummy close in, the abyss fiend's heart was filled with hostility.
It was a mighty devil, a terrifying ruler that had been nurtured from countless dimensions. How could a mere corpse withstand its attack?
Especially when it was under the command of a human?
The abyss fiend despised all weak existences. Be it creatures of darkness or humans, they were no different from worms in its eyes.
How could a creature summoned by a human be its opponent?
The abyss fiend gritted its teeth, looking at the mummy as a dense energy wave rose from its body.
How could it only have the ability to use fire? It had never truly fought since coming to the human world. Today, it decided to use all of its strength. Its ultimate goal was to defend its dignity, and not be trampled on by a human.
Usually, when it fought against weak humans, the abyss fiend did not need to use its full strength. Now that the mummy was so aggressive, if it did not react, only death would await it.
The abyss fiend was incomparably brave, but it would not sacrifice itself for no reason.
"Protect everything here!" Li Shuo had placed all his hopes on the Mummy. At this moment, he shouted loudly and issued a battle command to the Mummy.
The mummy's eyes shot towards the abyss fiend, its bloodthirsty eyes seeming like it wanted to eat a human alive. It was filled with a blood-curdling fear.
In the next second, a crack appeared on the abyss fiend's body, and countless arms shot out from within. The arms were filled with pustules, and emitted an extremely unpleasant smell. Just a whiff would cause one to feel dizzy and hot, and an indescribable sense of disgust.
A ghostly aura swam around the arms, and a terrifying aura of death appeared, destroying everything in its surroundings.
Like the rebirth of a dead spirit, this all-out attack filled with death shot out from the crack, heading straight for the abyss fiend.
The abyss fiend was a devil, not a god.
The arrogance of the strong was the main culprit behind his current predicament. Perhaps, from the very beginning, he had never thought that a seemingly simple matter would develop to such an extent!
However, there was nothing he could do now.
Even if the abyss fiend hid most of his strength, he could not guarantee that he would be able to escape unscathed from the mummy's ferocious attacks.
The passage of time seemed to slow down in that instant. The abyssal fiend could see the mummy flying towards him at an extremely slow speed, and he could feel that his fatal attack had been dispersed before it could even get close.
Mummies were terrifying undead spirits, especially the strength of the mummy in front of him. When it was close to being a half-step Epic, its strength was already in the Legendary rank. In Order, because of the countless resources, it was able to cultivate Legendary masters such as Xu Hongzhuang and Wei Xun. In other cities in the world, the resources were limited, and the number of people allocated was even less. Under such circumstances, those professions that could still advance into the Legendary rank were the true geniuses of the heavens. They were incomparable!
Li Shuo, for example. He was born with the ability to summon creatures of different dimensions. The most ridiculous one was when he summoned a giant serpent that was a hundred metres long. It was neither half-epic nor legendary, but a true epic. Due to the great disparity in strength, the two of them did not become partners. Even so, the giant serpent did not harm Li Shuo at all due to his body's special characteristics.
Li Shuo was a genius born in this great era. Once he awakened, his strength would be unimaginable.
The abyss fiend's aura was as vast as the sea, his eyes staring fixedly at the mummy.
It was an indescribable feeling …
It was as if he was being watched by the god of death, and could fall into the depths of hell at any moment.
Fear? This was an emotion he had never felt before, and it was like a sapling that was slowly growing in his heart.
He felt a strong sense of unease, but he was also looking forward to the feeling of being enveloped by death.
Closing his eyes, he felt something shatter in his body. In that instant, the abyss fiend's heart that had always been closed off changed. It was a feeling he hadn't felt in a long time.
"Fear?"
It was as if something was growing in his heart, and it was a nauseating feeling.
Just as the mummy's fatal attack was about to devour the abyss fiend, the sound of something breaking rang out.
It was as if the heavens were being torn apart, and it rang out in everyone's hearts.
It was as if wind chimes were ringing in the wind. It shook everyone's hearts like a small boat in the middle of a raging storm, threatening to capsize at any moment.
At this moment, time seemed to stop for an eternity.
Following that, the abyss fiend's chest blossomed with dazzling black light. More accurately, it was coming from a space not far from him.
A shadow suddenly appeared in front of the abyss fiend.
Unlike the mummy's chaotic tearing of space, the space in front of him was as viscous as mud.
That phantom seemed to give the Abyssal Purefiend endless power, which caused its body to undergo some changes.
Seeing this, the abyss fiend's body suddenly swelled, tearing his clothes apart.
He instantly turned into a huge creature that was close to three metres tall. His skin seemed dull, but it was actually a deep black. The goat horns on his head were curved and extended, covered in countless mysterious patterns. A pair of giant bat-like wings spread out from his back, coiling with light blue flames and emitting a strong smell of sulphur.
* Whoosh!
Whoosh! * Fireballs shot out like cannons, covering the entire area around the mummy. The abyss fiend's eyes glowed scarlet, and he spat out some extremely foul devilish words.
"Death!"
This was also an area of effect attack.
Dazzling flames rose, and the smell of sulphur filled the air. The mummy's body suddenly bent, covered in a layer of viscous black liquid.
This was a complex emotion that caused fear, fear, and fear. It was a terrifying force that could not be resisted.
The abyss fiend opened its eyes, and the mummy was sent flying several metres away. The abyss fiend took a step forward, and the people around him felt like they had to submit to him.
They looked at the abyss fiend, their eyes empty and filled with disbelief. Even if they were unwilling, they did not dare to have the slightest thought of resisting.
The power the abyss fiend emitted grew denser and denser. This was an aura that seemed to be able to destroy the heavens and earth, as well as nourish all life. Life and death, destruction and creation, these two extreme and abnormally powerful forces intertwined within the abyss fiend's body.
The abyss fiend was not having it easy either. His brows were furrowed at times, and he was smiling from time to time. It was as if he was possessed by an angel or a demon. These two extreme forces seemed to be fighting for control of the abyss fiend's body. No one knew what would happen in the next second, which was why everyone's breathing stopped. They were afraid that their simple inhalation would hinder the abyssal fiend's vital rebirth!
* Thud … Thud … Thud … *
Just as everyone present was tensing up, a powerful heartbeat that sounded like thunder rang out from the abyss fiend's body.
They could clearly feel a heavy and terrifying pressure, as if Mount Tai was pressing down on their hearts. It made it difficult for them to breathe, and even moving a finger was incomparably difficult.
It was a kind of innate fear …
It was a panic and despair that could make one feel death, as if they had fallen into a bottomless abyss.
'This monster has gotten even stronger!'
Li Shuo stood where he was, gritting his teeth so hard that his gums were bleeding. At this moment, the doubts in his heart had finally become reality. Even if his will was as strong as a boulder, he felt as if he had been plunged into an ice cellar. He was extremely uneasy.
Li Shuo never would have thought that his all-out counterattack would instead benefit someone else.
The abyss fiend's face had returned to its original numbness. However, upon closer inspection, there was something different. In the past, his numbness was only towards life. Now, however, his numbness was like looking down on all living things like ants.
This wasn't the most shocking thing. What shocked everyone the most was that the abyss fiend's expression actually made them feel that it was only natural.
If the abyss fiend was a mountain that they had to look up to in the past, he was now a vast ocean that they could never cross.
At this moment, the abyss fiend opened his eyes.
His pupils were pitch-black.
They were like boiling water, emitting an indescribable mist of energy. The sun and white clouds in the sky had also completely disappeared. It was as if the stars had shifted, and the entire world had actually
The sky and earth had completely dimmed, becoming two pitch-black nights with no stars or moon.
The abyss fiend smirked, and his eyes no longer had the anger and hesitation from before. Instead, there was only ridicule and madness, like the punishment of a god.
Under such intense pressure, the Abyss Purefiend broke through his limits and stepped into a whole new realm. At this time, he could clearly feel his life force and power changing qualitatively.
With this kind of strength, the abyss fiend could control everything here. What mummy? What human? Once again, he'd become an ant that he could crush at will.
At the level of an Abyssal Purgatory Fiend, it naturally had a miraculous ability to communicate. It looked at Li Shuo and spoke in the foul demonic language: 「 Submit to me, lowly human, and I will grant you a chance to continue living! 」
The Abyssal Fiend stood there like a statue, his entire body brimming with confidence and determination. In this state of mind, Li Shuo's threat to him was negligible.
This simple sentence cut into Li Shuo's heart like a knife.
If Li Shuo was such a coward, he would have compromised with the abyss fiend long ago. There was no need to wait until now. The reason he was so furious in this situation was because …
The Abyss Fiend's advancement was completely out of his expectations. Not only that, but what was even more shocking was that Li Shuo was completely suppressed by such an opponent despite his unwillingness and resentment. He didn't have the slightest chance to retaliate.
'Could it be … Am I really going to lose? No, no matter what, I have to try! '
Li Shuo gritted his teeth, a trace of blood appearing between his lips. He stared at the abyss fiend, energy gathering in his body as his will to fight soared. Evidently, he was using facts to express his stance.
Li Shuo prepared himself for a counterattack, but just as he ordered the mummy to continue charging, his vision suddenly blurred. He saw a large grey shadow wriggling behind the abyss fiend, and then his vision was filled with wriggling chunks of flesh.
The monster seemed to be made up of countless gray and black corpses. Behind the two huge palms were withered arms that looked like dry wood. The arms came from a corpse that looked like a giant. The giant's single eye was closed, and there were a few other heads attached to its neck. Those heads extended out the body of a fish covered in scales, the body of a lizard, and the body of a twisted human. Layer after layer, they formed a huge piece of flesh.
This was one of the archdevils worshipped by the abyss fiend. Even if it was an undead, its strength was many times greater than the mummy's. It was this strange figure that had given the abyss fiend new strength.
Li Shuo clenched his fists tightly. No matter what, he had to retaliate. Only then could he protect his home, even if it was a very small possibility.
The mummy obeyed, opening its mouth and splitting it apart. From its nose to its abdomen, it quickly formed a 'vortex' of flesh and blood.
Within the vortex, there seemed to be many strange and evil existences baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. From the looks of it, they wanted to capture the abyss fiend.
The abyss fiend snorted coldly. His lips moved, and a voice that resembled wind and mist came out of his mouth. However, it quickly disappeared into the air, its whereabouts unknown.
"Pfft!"
A terrifying scene appeared. The mummy's chest caved in completely, flesh and blood splattering everywhere. A few severely deformed ribs were about to burst out of his chest.
For the abyss fiend to be able to do this in the face of the mummy's killing move was simply unbelievable.
If it were anyone else, they would have fainted long ago after suffering such severe injuries. They would definitely be on the verge of death, but the mummy was still an undead, and was able to crawl up from the ground.
"Die!"
A voice unique to devils came out of the abyss fiend's mouth. It was at this moment that the mummy's body shattered, and the terrifying mummy died in such a manner.
"Is it over?"
Li Shuo felt like he'd jumped into a cold lake, an indescribable feeling of despair rising within him. It was as if he could see the destruction of this city, and everything was about to come to an end.
Everyone would die, just like … the beginning of the apocalypse.
Li Shuo closed his eyes. Just as he was waiting for death to descend, a boiling flame suddenly rose around him for some reason. This flame seemed to be able to melt everything. Even Li Shuo, who was seeking death, couldn't help but open his eyes, trying to explore his surroundings. It was at this moment that his pupils involuntarily shrank, because he saw a scene comparable to the abyss fiend's mutation.
