Heavenly Burial

The rain of stones filling the sky seemed to defy gravity, piercing through the thick mountain mist like it had punched through a sheet of milky-white silk, hurtling toward the heavens with terrifying force. Their speed and density left the five streaks of Demonic Light in the sky nowhere to evade.

Swish, swish, swish...

Sharp Claw Light and golden light flashed through the sky. Vast numbers of stones exploded with booming crashes, but the speed of the escaping lights was clearly dragged to a complete standstill.

"Hahahahaha! You vermin, daring to fly so low!"

"Wuu... wuu..."

Amid the whistling sound of a gale strong enough to tear flesh apart, an enormous arm of mountain and earth shattered a stretch of mist below and rose explosively into the sky. Blocking out a swath of starlight and moonlight, it cast a vast shadow over the demons below that were using spells to smash the flying boulders. The entire motion struck like startling thunder.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang...

As the giant arm swept over, countless stones struck it like a human hand parting a skyful of millet grains, before continuing onward with undiminished force and smashing into the demons' position.

Clang...

With a sound like the world cracking apart, two streaks of Demonic Light were directly crushed by the giant arm. Its five fingers closed, trapping the two figures within the light inside its enormous hand, while the other three streaks narrowly escaped by a hair's breadth.

Creak, creak, creak, creak...

Dense, horrifying sounds of grinding came from the enormous hand of rock. The two demons inside, utterly unseen, had already fallen completely silent.

The remaining three demons fled rapidly toward the high sky, not daring to linger for even an instant. As they flew, they shouted down below.
