Chapter 628 Devil Race Vs Angel Race War
The swirling vortex of the spatial tunnel spat them out into the inky void. Before them, the ominous crimson glow of Mo Yu's Star pulsed, a foreboding beacon of their enemy's lair.
The combined forces of the Heavenly Jade Pavilion and the Angel Race surged forward, their celestial energy forming a shimmering shield against the oppressive aura emanating from the devilish planet.
A formidable figure materialized before them. A hulking demon, his horns gleaming like obsidian daggers, held his fist aloft, his booming voice echoing through the void.
"Celestial Maiden Yuqing," he declared, General Mo Ku of the Devil Race, "turn back while you still can. Let peace prevail. This needless bloodshed serves no purpose."
Celestial Maiden Yuqing scoffed. Her celestial armor, adorned with radiant feathers, shimmered as she raised her head. "Peace? Don't mock me with your empty words, General Mo Ku. The actions of your King and his insolent sons have sown the seeds of war. We, the combined might of the righteous, have come to reap the harvest!"
With a battle cry that echoed through the cosmos, the Heavenly Jade Pavilion unleashed their signature formation, the Moonlit Cascade. Hundreds of disciples, their bodies shimmering with celestial energy, formed a cascade of light, each layer amplifying the power of the one below.
Across the battlefield, the Angel warriors, led by Celestial Maiden Yuqing's daughters, formed their own formidable formation, the Seraph's Fury. Their wings, a dazzling display of white and gold, spread wide, creating a vortex of celestial energy that channeled their collective power into a devastating offensive.
The battle commenced. The Heavenly Jade Pavilion disciples unleashed a flurry of attacks – Starfall Fury, sending a downpour of celestial energy spears, and Jade Gale, a hurricane of razor-sharp wind blades. The Angel warriors responded with their own celestial arts – Divine Feathers, a storm of razor-sharp feathers imbued with divine energy, and Seraph's Wrath, a concentrated beam of celestial light capable of vaporizing anything in its path.
Among the Angel warriors, the twenty-eight who had received Wang Jian's "training" stood out. Their movements flowed with a newfound grace and power. Their attacks, fueled by the Law of Love subtly woven into their being, were nearly as potent as their leader's. They moved like a whirlwind, cutting through the ranks of the Devil Race with terrifying efficiency.
The Devil Race and the local Devil Tribes retaliated in kind. Their demonic cultivators unleashed a barrage of Curse of Withering, a vile spell that drained life force, and Venomous Bite, a venomous attack that inflicted excruciating pain. The devilish bloodlines within them pulsed, fueling their dark arts – Bloodfire Burst, an explosion of demonic energy that scorched the battlefield, and Shadow Chains, ethereal chains that bound their opponents in darkness.
Wang Jian, perched on a meteor overlooking the battlefield, observed the chaos with a detached amusement. The combined might of the righteous was overwhelming the Devil Race and their allies. But a flicker of concern crossed his face as he spotted Lu Rong'er.
Despite her newfound strength, Lu Rong'er found herself overwhelmed. Unlike her comrades who were facing low number of opponents, she was swarmed by a horde of lesser demons.
Her movements, honed for one-on-one combat, became sluggish as she struggled to defend herself from attacks coming from all sides.
Relief washed over Celestial Maiden Yuqing. Witnessing her daughter's rescue had refocused her determination. She unleashed her most potent attack – "Thundering Descent of the Phoenix." A radiant phoenix, wreathed in crackling lightning bolts, materialized behind her. With a piercing cry, it descended upon her opponent, a Celestial General of the Devil Race, engulfing him in a blinding blaze of celestial energy.
The battle raged on, the air thick with the stench of burnt flesh and demonic energy. The Heavenly Jade Pavilion disciples, led by the ever-graceful Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan, unleashed a barrage of techniques. "Starlight Cascade" rained down a shower of celestial energy spears, while "Jade Gale's Fury" sent a whirlwind of razor-sharp wind blades carving through the enemy ranks.
The Angels, emboldened by Wang Jian's daring rescue of their princess and invigorated by their formations, launched a series of attacks.
Princess Anye, blessed with the power of the Thunder True God, unleashed a barrage of "Thunderous Fury," bolts of crackling lightning that decimated enemy ranks.
Princess Ruoqing, blessed by the Flame True God, conjured a fiery inferno with her technique "Burning Heaven," scorching the battlefield.
The Devil Race and local Devil Tribes retaliated in kind. Their attacks were a cacophony of darkness and savagery. Bloodcurdling screams filled the air as the Bloodhorn Devil Tribe unleashed the "Curse of Shrieking Death," a debilitating curse that sapped vitality. The Venomfang Serpent Tribe launched "Venomous Rain," a barrage of venomous darts that turned the ground into a toxic swamp.
General Mo Ku roared, unleashing his forbidden technique "Blood Sacrifice Demonic Transformation."
His demonic form swelled, his obsidian armor crackling with dark energy as he charged towards the Celestial Maiden Yuqing.
However, Celestial Maiden Yuqing, undeterred, met his charge head-on with her own devastating technique "Divine Wrath of the Archangel," a concentrated beam of celestial energy capable of shattering mountains.
More Devil Tribes released their bloodline abilities to unleash a torrent of chaos – the Obsidian Claw Devil Tribe unleashed the "Obsidian Shattering Strike," while the Blood Viper Tribe unleashed their venomous fangs in a terrifying attack known as the "Crimson Fang's Kiss."
But despite their brutal tactics, the combined might of the righteous forces started to break through. The Heavenly Jade Pavilion's formations, honed through generations of practice, proved highly effective in channeling and amplifying their attacks. Sacred enchantments inscribed on their armor and weapons provided an additional layer of protection against demonic assaults.
The Devils, relying on brute force and unorthodox techniques, struggled to keep pace. Their formations, chaotic and disorganized, were easily disrupted by the strategic maneuvers of the Angel warriors. The Devil Race, caught unprepared for such a coordinated attack, found themselves pushed back steadily towards the protective barrier that shielded their star.
As the hours wore on, the momentum shifted decisively in favor of the Heavenly Jade Pavilion and the Angel Race.
