Chapter 1344 Confrontation
Three hours later in the underground abyss, after Fang Heng weakened the abyssal demon more than ten times, the concentration of the plague aura in the abyss had been greatly reduced as compared to before.
After taking the test potion developed by Qiu Yaokang, Warren and his group of more than 30 people were able to temporarily resist the corrosion of the plague aura. They followed him to the area under the buried abyss to investigate.
At the magic array that sealed the entrance of the abyssal demon, Warren and a few mages of the Empire gathered in front of the magic array left behind by the Saints and examined it carefully.
The magic array left behind by the ancient Saints had great research value. It would be a pity to destroy it just like that.
The president of the Mage Association, Price, sighed in his heart. He half-knelt on the ground and carefully examined the magic array. He raised his head and said in a deep voice, “The alchemy magic array here has already been fortified with multiple layers of protection, but it still can’t withstand the corrosion of time. More than half of the magic array has already been corroded.”
“The corrosion of time is part of the reason. The greatest damage is this sword mark. It’s undoubtedly left behind by the Holy Court. This is the biggest reason for the abnormal movements of the abyssal demon.”
Apart from the people from the Mage Association, a group of eight barbarian blood priests in barbarian attire also stood behind Wangnet.
The elder of the barbarians was holding a bone-made magic tool that looked like a banner in his hand. His face was wrapped under a black cloth.
Previously, after Fang Heng had told them his plan, Wangnet had immediately gone to the underground world to fetch them.
The barbarian blood priests!
On the battlefield, the barbarian blood priests could use their blood and souls to cast AOE buffing and weakening spells. There were even a few high-level blood priests who had mastered soul-stirring spells.
Zhuo Lingfang stood at the back of the crowd and looked at these people, feeling extremely perturbed in her heart.
It was hard to imagine that the humans and barbarians, who had always been incompatible with each other, could stand together calmly like today. They were even discussing how to cooperate with each other!
Warren stood up from the side of the magic array and gestured with his hand. “Everyone, it’s about time. We can start.”
“Yes.”
The group of advanced mages gathered around the magic array and retreated in unison, raising their staffs at the same time.
With the infusion of their mental power, the alchemy magic array sealing the abyssal demon in front of them began to operate rapidly, emitting a silver light!
“Pfft…”
After a moment of operation, the magic array let out a soft sound and slowly stopped rotating.
Everyone looked at the magic array warily and carefully retreated.
The first step to releasing the abyssal demon was to destroy the sealing magic array.
Mo Jiawei was also staring at the magic array.
Suddenly, the alchemy seal rune on his forehead flickered slightly, and a line of bright red game prompts flashed rapidly on his retina.
[Hint (Triggered by the Saint’s legacy): Due to a special event, the current seal of the abyssal demon has been broken. The abyssal demon has broken free of the seal in advance. Please be careful!]
Mo Jiawei’s pupils constricted when he saw the game hint. He shouted, “Hurry up! Retreat! It’s coming out!”
“Bang!”
The next moment, the sealing magic array on the ground exploded with a bang! Almost at the same time, Fang Heng dashed out from the broken rocks with the unsealed light holy sword in his hand!
In an instant, a thick black plague aura spread out from under the destroyed magic array and the concentration of plague aura in the entire abyss region increased dramatically!
“Hurry!”
Whoosh! Swoosh!!
Black rotting flesh spread out from the hole left behind by the destroyed magic array behind Fang Heng, revealing a ferocious appearance. Its black, rotting body was like a swamp, and it constantly overflowed with a fishy smell. The true form of the abyssal demon! Mo Jiawei covered his left eye and tried to use his talent skill to check. However, he found that other than the name of an abyssal demon and a “weakened state” logo, he could only see a series of question marks.
The difference in strength between the two sides was too great!
The rotting flesh seeped out from the bottom of the hole very quickly. The ground was corroded wherever it went, making sizzling sounds.
Everyone held their breaths and slowly retreated, waiting for the abyssal demon to completely break free from the abyss.
They waited for a full two minutes!
“Attack!”
Seeing the rotten flesh crawl out from below, the three legendary-level mages from the Mage Association took the lead to form a magic array.
“Ice crystals! Explode!!”
Several ice crystals condensed and exploded in the air!
Ice crystals fell from the sky, and a layer of frost that was visible to the naked eye immediately covered the rotting meat! The crawling speed of the rotten meat decreased again.
Then, colorful crystals appeared in the air. Elemental prison!
The crystals quickly condensed and constructed around the abyssal demon!
The elemental prison formed by the sixteen peak mages of the Mage Association completely locked the abyssal demon that had just crawled out of the cave in place!
Blue veins popped out on the forehead of the president of the Mage Guild, Price, who was in charge of controlling the elemental prison. He shouted, “Fang Heng!”
Swoosh!!
Fang Heng flashed out from the side, his hands tightly gripping the unsealed light holy sword as he stabbed forward fiercely!
“Chi!!!”
The long sword made a dry sound and pierced into the body of the abyssal demon. “Boom!!!”
Black plague aura immediately seeped out from the wound!
The abyssal demon had been injected with a restraining potion by Fang Heng under the seal, and all its attributes had been greatly reduced. Then, just as it broke free from the seal, it was jointly suppressed by the mages.
Now, it was pierced by the unsealed light holy sword, and its attributes were greatly suppressed again!
Fang Heng decided to leave his sword in the abyssal demon’s body to maintain the suppression. At the same time, he quickly jumped back.
[Hint: You have used the arbitrator-unsealed light holy sword to suppress the abyssal demon. Continuing to suppress the abyssal demon will cause the durability of the weapon to continue to decrease. Current durability: (139/1,000).]
[Hint: All attributes of abyssal demon have been greatly reduced.]
Success!
Fang Heng saw the game notification flash on his retina. He raised his eyebrows and shouted, “Wangnet! It’s your turn!”
Everything was going according to the script that Fang Heng and the others had planned in advance!
Under the triple suppression of the unsealed light holy sword, the magic array, and Qiu Yaokang’s targeted potion, the abyssal demon had fallen into an extremely weak state. It stopped moving on the ground as if it had completely lost its ability to resist!
Upon hearing Fang Heng’s hint, Wangnet raised his hands. “Sacrifice!”
The barbarian blood priests who had been standing behind Wangnet all this time took out their bone banners at the same time and chanted the barbarians’ incantation.
“Hu! Huff huff!!!”
A gray mist that was visible to the naked eye overflowed from the dancing bone banners and slowly drifted toward the abyssal demon not far away.
The aura gradually surrounded the weakened abyssal demon.
Under the pull of an unknown force, the abyssal demon’s body slowly floated into the air uncontrollably.
The gray aura enveloped a huge lump of rotting flesh and floated forward until it reached the barbarian blood priests.
