Above, heavy "cloud layers" flickering with lightning churned and surged. Bolts of thunder like silver serpents darted through them, unleashing deafening roars, ready to strike at any moment!
Throughout the array's range, wind and thunder raged. Gloomy winds howled, lightning flashed and thunder crashed, forming a domain cut off from the outside world, a forbidden realm steeped in an aura of destruction!
The instant the array took shape, the corpse demon vanguard charging at the very front had already poured into its edge like a black tide!
"ROAR!!"
Most of these were low- and mid-tier corpse demons, dim-witted creatures that charged on instinct and fear of their emperor. They knew nothing of the mysteries of arrays.
They plunged headlong into the gray-black Baleful Intent mist and were instantly swept into the howling vortices of gloomy wind! Countless fine wind blades of Baleful Intent sliced madly through their bodies like a meat grinder!
"Shk! Shk! Shk!"
A dense chorus of slicing and the howls of corpse demons mingled together.
The skeletal zombies at the forefront were almost ground into bone dust the instant they touched the gloomy wind!
Those corpse demon soldiers clad in tattered armor, with Golden Core Realm strength, held out for only a few more breaths. The death demonic aura protecting their bodies was rapidly worn away beneath the cutting winds imbued with earth-fiend power; their armor shattered, and their bodies were carved into pieces!
Only a handful of corpse demon leaders with tough hides and thick flesh, or strength reaching the Nascent Soul Realm, could barely gain a foothold within the gloomy wind zone. Even so, they struggled to take each step, deep wounds exposing bone constantly appearing across their bodies.
And this was merely the gloomy wind region at the very outermost edge of the array!
