"Humph!"
High above the city, a strange face swiftly took shape on the Dark Purple Barrier. A cold snort rang out.
The face had two horns growing from its head, and its ears resembled bat wings. Dark red light shone from its eyes.
The moment the strange face appeared, waves of wailing filled the air.
It sounded like people crying out in anguish, like they were begging for mercy.
If not for the rampaging lightning suppressing this mental contamination, every survivor in the city would have been wiped out in an instant.
One by one, souls with twisted faces and hatred in their eyes, their bodies wrapped in black, resentful energy, rapidly poured out of the barrier.
Bang! Bang! Bang!!!
Driven by the strange face, these spirits, their bodies wrapped in tangible hatred, served as cannon fodder, one after another, to block the black-purple lightning.
A single spirit could usually withstand one strike of black-purple lightning.
With an endless supply of spirits, the two sides reached a stalemate.
"Hah!!!"
The strange face opened its mouth, baring sharp teeth inside its black-and-red maw.
Dark red mist gushed from its mouth, spreading a stench of decay throughout the city.
The dark red mist instantly covered the sky above the city and continued to spread downward, eroding everything in its path.
Empowered by the dark red mist, the Vengeful Spirits grew noticeably stronger.
The Vengeful Spirits, which had previously shattered at the slightest touch of black-purple lightning, could now barely hold themselves together after being struck.
Then they plunged into the dark red mist, absorbed its power, and quickly healed their injuries before darting out again to fight the lightning.
The dark red mist itself also seemed to resist the lightning. Though it dispersed in places when struck, it suffered no widespread damage,
