Rescue
"The powerful warriors of my Human Race are arriving soon. If you know what's good for you, retreat immediately, or you will surely die." The speaker was a man dressed in Black Battle Armor, surrounded by streams of azure energy. Judging from his aura, he had already begun to burn divine power and fight desperately.
The two Demon Race Immortal he faced, both at the Early Marquis, were also burning their divine power and launching fierce attacks.
However, the Black-Armored Man's defensive technique was quite effective. The attacks from the two Demon Race Marquis-level who had reached the initial stage of the Marquis level were weakened by one-fifth by the azure aura. It was precisely because of this that the Black-Armored Man, who was also at the initial stage of the Early Marquis, was able to withstand the attack.
However.
Even so, five percent of the Black-Armored Man's Divine Body was annihilated.
For someone who has achieved the Marquis Immortal, losing less than 10% of their divine power is enough to maintain their peak condition. However, once the loss exceeds 10%, their strength will plummet. Therefore, the Black-Armored Man is now close to his limit.
The two Demon Race Marquis-level were naturally aware of the Black-Armored Man's condition. One of them, a Demon Race Immortal fifty meters tall with a human face and eight legs resembling a spider, coldly snorted and said, "Hmph, let's see how much longer you can last?"
Each of its legs had dozens of blood-red ring patterns, each ring shimmering with secret runes and glowing red.
Eight legs stretched out into the void at the same time, forming a strange formation.
Each red ring emitted a blazing red light, merging into the formation. Then, with a boom, a beam of red light ten meters in diameter shot out.
The surrounding universe collapsed instantly.
The red light, carrying Space Fragment, struck the black- Black-Armored Man Black-Armored Man directly, causing most of the aquamarine energy around him to dissipate instantly.
At the same time, next to the Human-Faced Spider, a Marquis Cat Demon had its claws, covered in claw sheaths, burst into flames.
"Die, human!" the Marquis Cat Demon roared, slashing out with its claws. A giant fiery claw, hundreds of meters in diameter, flew out from the cat's paw and grabbed at the Black-Armored Man.
The Black-Armored Man, struck by the red light, staggered. When he saw the giant fiery claw hurtling towards him, the Long Spear in his hand emitted Jin Guang.
"Stop them!" the Black-Armored Man roared.
The Black-Armored Man unleashed a beam of illusory Jin Guang from his golden Long Spear, piercing towards the giant fiery claw.
With a deafening boom, the two ultimate moves of the Marquis-level collided, shattering the surrounding space and sending countless Space Fragment flashing in the air. However, in an instant, the spear light of the Human Race Black-Armored Man completely disappeared, while the giant fiery claw was only slightly illusory before fiercely grabbing towards the Black-Armored Man.
"This is..." The Black-Armored Man widened his eyes.
In the distance, the Marquis Cat Demon wore a smug expression.
This giant flaming claw was his most prized secret technique, created by himself, and called "Explosive Claw."
now.
The Marquis Cat Demon with the title of Marquis clenched its claws, and its giant fiery claws instantly closed, enveloping the Black-Armored Man.
Immediately afterwards.
"Boom~"
The explosion was deafening. At the point of impact, space shattered and flames raged. The Black-Armored Man, who had been blown to pieces, could be vaguely seen reforming himself in the flames. However, judging from his weakened aura, the attack had just consumed a great deal of his divine power.
Outside Marquis-level battleground, four Demon Race Immortal and three human Immortal were engaged in combat.
"Captain!" At this moment, the three Immortal Army Lord on the human side were shocked to see the Golden Armor Man being blown apart once again.
"Ha, a good opportunity." The Demon Race Immortal Army Lord Immortal Army Lord, was delighted to see the human distracted and immediately used his killing move.
On this battlefield, there are six Demon Race and only four humans.
immediately.
Ah~
Ah~
Two human Immortal Army Lord screamed as their Divine Body shattered, while the other human, Immortal Army Lord Peak, withstood the attack.
The shattered Divine Body of the two Immortal God, whose bodies had been torn apart, rapidly reformed.
Immortal, being an energy life form, possesses the characteristic of energy life forms: even after its Divine Body is shattered, it can reassemble itself.
However, without achieving Immortal through the cultivation of an "Undying Body," the number of times one can reassemble is limited. Once the Divine Body is shattered too many times, or if the body fragments are devoured or broken into even greater pieces, it can no longer be reassembled, and one's life will end.
"Die!" Three Demon Race covered in scales launched an attack directly at the shattered Divine Body.
"No~" The other human Immortal Army Lord was held back by a bear demon at the Peak Army Lord and could not help, so he could only shout angrily.
Just when the Demon Race thought they were about to win...
Sudden.
Four powerful beams of light descended from the sky, instantly shattering the four immortal Demon Race Immortal Army Lord, so fast that the Immortal Demon Race had no time to react.
The remaining energy within them surged wildly, and then, with a bang, the Immortal Divine Body of the Demon Race vanished into nothingness. Completely annihilated! They didn't even have a chance to regenerate!
"Saved?" The human Immortal Divine Body was overjoyed after it was reassembled.
Meanwhile, on the Marquis-level not far away, the two Marquis-level Demon Race were terrified.
" To Marquis-level Immortal! To kill four military lords in a single blow without burning divine power is definitely the Marquis-level Immortal!"
The Human-Faced Spider said in terror.
"It's a human Marquis-level Immortal! Let's split up!"
The Cat Demon realized what was happening and quickly called out.
As they finished speaking, the two Demon Race, now Marquis-level, burned their divine power and fled in two different directions.
Looking at the four Demon Race Immortal had been completely annihilated, Gulanxiu sighed inwardly in regret! The situation was urgent just now, and if he hadn't made a move, the two Human Race Immortal would have been in danger. Therefore, Gulanxiu hadn't held back at all, and the result was that the four Demon Race Immortal were completely annihilated, leaving Gulanxiu with nothing.
Seeing that the two Marquis Immortal were frantically fleeing while burning their divine power, Gulanxiu chased after the Human-Faced Spider. After all, under these circumstances, Gulanxiu could only leave one behind.
Comparatively speaking, the Human-Faced Spider's Divine Body is larger, allowing it to leave more divine power for the Green Lotus to absorb!
With the support of Heavy Metal Stym, Gulanxiu's foundation had reached ten thousand times the World Lord Power. In addition, Gulanxiu's Law Comprehension was equivalent to the eighteenth level of the Sky Bridge. Even if the Human-Faced Spider burned its divine power, it could not match Gulanxiu's speed!
In just a moment, Gulanxiu arrived behind the Human-Faced Spider.
The Human-Faced Spider also sensed Gulanxiu's arrival. While secretly cursing its bad luck, it also actively prepared for the situation.
Its body was covered in various blood-red patterns, and its eight spider legs were spread out, with blood-red threads emerging from between them.
Suddenly, its body shone brightly with red light, and a giant blood-red net appeared between its eight long legs, which it then flung out instantly.
The giant net grew longer in the wind, reaching a size of ten thousand meters in the blink of an eye, and began to envelop Gulanxiu.
After casting this spider web, the aura emanating from the Human-Faced Spider suddenly dropped, but it still flew away into the distance, burning with divine power, without looking back.
As the massive, blood-red net drew ever closer, Gulanxiu, wielding the Enlightening Divine Axe, roared, "Break!"
As he spoke, he swung forward, and the roaring Beast God Phantom cleaved fiercely with the axe blade, instantly creating a huge hole in the blood-red giant net.
Gulanxiu instantly passed through the opening and continued chasing after the Human-Faced Spider!
The fleeing Human-Faced Spider realized its ultimate attack had failed to achieve its intended effect, and feeling the powerful aura rapidly approaching from behind, a wave of despair washed over it!
"High-level King! This Human Race is High-level King!" the spider cried out pitifully.
That giant net was their race's innate divine power, which could only be used after breaking through to Immortal. It had the effect of trapping and blocking enemies, and could even hold off enemies of a higher level for a moment. However, it consumed a relatively large amount of its divine power each time it was used, so it would never use it unless absolutely necessary.
This time, upon sensing that Gulanxiu was chasing after it, it unleashed this ultimate move without hesitation. In its view, if Gulanxiu did not Burning Divine Body, it could definitely hold Gulanxiu off for a moment. With this time to buffer, it could escape the area where the battle had just taken place and use its Divine Kingdom Teleportation away.
The divine power of King-level Expert is so precious that it shouldn't be wasted on a mere Early Marquis Immortal title!
Unexpectedly, Gulanxiu shattered its divine power with a single axe strike. Judging from this, Gulanxiu's attack power had at least reached the High-level King! Feeling the distance between itself and Gulanxiu constantly shrinking, it knew it had no chance left and would surely perish here today.
After shouting those words to remind its companions, it mustered all its strength and prepared to self-destruct!
As Gulanxiu rapidly approached, he noticed that the Human-Faced Spider's divine power fluctuations were abnormal. Knowing that it was about to self-destruct, he unleashed the Beast God Roar once again!
A sound that sounded like a chirping or a cry was emitted and reached the ears of the Human-Faced Spider in front.
Amidst that powerful and majestic roar, the flying Human-Faced Spider involuntarily paused.
Then Gulanxiu's Great Axe followed closely behind.
With a deafening boom, the Human-Faced Spider's body exploded under Gulanxiu's attack!
However, it was rebuilt and restored in the blink of an eye!
"Sixty percent! His axe blow annihilated sixty percent of my divine power!" The Human-Faced Spider was secretly shocked. At this moment, its divine power was less than thirty percent, and its strength was less than one-tenth of what it used to be. Moreover, it could not even self-destruct under the Gulanxiu Beast God Roar.
Then Gulanxiu again with his axe, shattering its body once more and plunging it into a deep sleep!
With a wave of his hand, Gulanxiu collected the sleeping Human-Faced Spider into the Green Lotus.
Then they looked in the direction the Marquis Cat Demon had fled.
With just a slight sense, Gulanxiu secretly regretted it! At this moment, the Cat Demon had already flown to the edge of the battlefield. At Gulanxiu's current speed, even burning Stim's divine power would not be able to stop its Divine Kingdom Teleportation.
Seeing this, Gulanxiu had no choice but to abandon his idea of having both and saw the Cat Demon off! However, with the Human-Faced Spider as a backup, this trip wasn't a complete loss.
In the blink of an eye, the Cat Demon had escaped the area where the space had been disturbed by the battle and was able to leave through the Divine Kingdom Teleportation!
The Cat Demon secretly breathed a sigh of relief! Although it had lost a companion, at least it had survived this time! Surviving the clutches of Marquis-level Immortal was something it could brag about to the Marquis-level Demon Race the demon race when it returned.
Just as it was about to open the Divine Kingdom Passage and escape, a sudden change occurred!
Suddenly, a butterfly-shaped E9-Class Spaceship appeared not far in front of it!
The spaceship flashed with silver light, and instantly a thick beam of light shot towards it!
With a deafening boom, the silver beam of light instantly enveloped the Cat Demon's body.
However, the energy of that beam of light was not very strong, equivalent to the attack of an ordinary military commander.
An attack of this intensity would naturally not cause any damage to the Cat Demon, which had already Marquis-level; not even its Divine Body was broken.
However, this enraged the Cat Demon beyond belief! Because the attack had caused a spatial tremor, Divine Kingdom Teleportation was no longer possible here!
The Cat Demon roared angrily, "You're asking for death!" Then it swung its claws, transforming them into a giant fiery hand that reached out to grab the newly appeared spaceship!
At that moment, the spaceship's hatch opened, and a human wearing winged, Silver-White Armor appeared outside.
The human's entire body was covered in armor, obscuring their face, but judging from their slender figure, they were likely a woman.
Hundreds of Steel Feathers suddenly flew out from the silver-white wings behind the person and formed a steel blade in a peculiar way, instantly slicing the Cat Demon's fiery hand in two!
Immediately afterward, a phantom silver light emanated from between her eyebrows. The light seemed to transcend time and space, striking the Cat Demon almost as soon as her brow lit up!
The divine power burning on the Cat Demon instantly extinguished, its aura completely disappeared, and it floated softly in the void!
The woman waved her hand, and the Cat Demon vanished into thin air.
Seeing this from afar, Gulanxiu sighed inwardly, "He's actually Soul Master at the King Level!"
To be honest, the Soul Master profession has many limitations in the Yu Shen (a game mechanic), unlike the Warrior and Controller which are applicable to almost all opponents.
Those skilled in using the soul often suffer setbacks when facing races without souls or individuals with strong wills! Although Soul Master also possess decent physical attack capabilities, they are still somewhat inferior compared to their peers.
This is also reflected in the original work. For example, during the Genius Battle, the Law Comprehension Illusion Demon Jialai Xi could rank among the top ten geniuses in terms of understanding of the laws, but when he challenged the Trial Tower, he ranked outside the top 100.
The easiest opponent to deal with when traversing the Heavenly Mountain was the Illusionist Snake Woman.
Moreover, even after becoming the Lord of the Universe, this flaw still exists. In the original work, after Luo Feng ignored the Soul Illusion of the Banfu Lord, he was actually able to gain the upper hand in the battle. This would be impossible for Controller or Warrior!
However, this does not mean that Illusionist are useless. In fact, Illusionist can play a more powerful role in certain situations, such as in the current Star Domain Battlefield.
Because of their enormous size, once Beast God Race has been granted the Marquis-level, even the most powerful Human Race Warrior and Controller, even those of higher rank, would find it difficult to kill them by simply eroding their divine power.
Illusionist, however, are different. Illusionist attack the soul directly, ignoring the body's defenses. To them, killing a Marquis Level demon beast is no different from killing a Marquis Level human, and they can completely disregard the size of Divine Body.
Moreover, they can directly annihilate the soul without causing any loss of the opponent's divine power.
For example, the corpse of that Cat Demon still contained at least 90% of its divine power; even the missing parts were wasted by the Cat Demon itself during battle or escape.
This ability is exactly what Gulanxiu needs at this stage. After all, he needs to precisely control his opponent's divine power in every battle, reducing it to below 10% and putting the opponent into a deep sleep in order to obtain the opponent's remaining divine power. Not only is this troublesome, but a large amount of divine power is also consumed in the battle, making Gulanxiu's efficiency not very high.
Now that he's finally met a Soul Master, Gulanxiu thought he'd like to have a chat with her!
