Chapter 205: Murder and Chaoge City’s Hidden Crisis!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Chaoge City fell into a temporary and strange silence.
The Spirit Flames and the ice lotuses were about to clash, and the Otherworldly Demon was about to escape.
L9527 looked at the ever-changing situation on the battlefield, his eyes filled with unwillingness.
He had guarded Chaoge City for so many years, but he didn’t expect that it would be breached today.
Even though he no longer held his duty as an administrator, an emotion called grief and indignation still tormented him.
Gu Changqing quietly looked at the white shadow below. His divine sense had already spread out.
After strengthening the Spirit Flame, he could already detect half of Universe
The other possibility was that she was hiding far enough away. But the second possibility gave him a headache.
If she had absorbed too many divine rune fragments from the beasts, she would be able to kill them.
Thus, after being corroded by the mixed power of the divine runes and the space’s will, it was unknown how much of the original body’s will would be left inside her.
In that case, it would be even more difficult to find her.
He had intended to let the white shadow go and use it to find Diqin Naxi. However, on second thought, he gave up on this idea.
There was no need to waste time on Diqin Naxi. In the future, if he encountered her, he could just choke her to death.
Thinking of this, the Spirit Flame mark on his forehead lit up a little. In the sky, the flames condensed into a phoenix.
Screech!
The phoenix descended and charged straight at the white shadow. The Spirit Flame’s transformation had stunned the latter.
In the blink of an eye, the ice lotuses turned into nothingness under the phoenix’s wings. The white shadow was so shocked that it couldn’t dodge in time. Suddenly, it felt a sharp pain in its soul.
“Impossible!”
The white shadow covered its head.
However, to its horror, it discovered that its entire body was burning with a faint grayish-white flame.
An extremely weak feeling surged through its entire body. In its divine soul, countless voices were shouting. Behind it, all kinds of space beasts were constantly transforming, and every one of them was struggling in pain.
One illusion after another was destroyed, and the white shadow’s aura weakened. It could feel the space beast wills in its body being burned by the flames.
Along with it, the divine rune energy it had absorbed also disappeared. The white shadow struggled in pain. It pushed its ice power to the limit, but it could not stop the burning flames.
Seeing that the phoenix was about to pounce on it, the white shadow revealed a
fierce and decisive expression.
Boom!
The phoenix pounced on the white shadow, and Gu Changqing raised his eyebrows.
“It actually escaped?”
The phoenix had missed its target and turned into flames again, swimming around. The surrounding ice slowly retreated as the temperature in Chaoge City gradually returned to normal.
Unfortunately, Gu Changqing’s space looping method couldn’t be activated during battle. Otherwise, the white shadow wouldn’t have had any chance to escape.
This was something that he needed to pay attention to in future battles.
Gu Changqing turned to look at the sky. The Otherworldly Demon had already fled far away, a long trail of demonic energy in its path.
If one were to say that being aimed at by an arrow made their heart race, if they saw the white shadow being burned by the Spirit Flames, they would feel fear engraved in their bones.
The grayish-white flame probably left an indelible memory in the white shadow’s long life. Once burned, the only outcome would be the destruction of one’s soul.
Swoosh!
A piercing sound came from behind. Subconsciously, the Otherworldly Demon wanted to dodge. However, the area where he was was suddenly frozen.
“Break! ”
The anxious Otherworldly Demon urged all the power in its body. It wanted to break through its shackles in the space. However, everything was futile.
It could only watch as the arrow flew toward it from behind. The arrowhead was stained with blood.
It had no choice but to extend its claws and open a defensive barrier. However, the arrow broke through the barrier it had painstakingly created.
Puchi!
The arrow pierced through its body. Heart-wrenching pain engulfed the Otherworldly Demon’s entire body.
Divine rune power continuously flowed out of its wounds. No matter how much divine rune power it tried to use to recover, it was completely useless.
Above Gu Changqing’s head, Nezha waved its hand. Then, the arrow instantly disappeared and returned to it.
Swoosh!
Another arrow shot out and hit the Otherworldly Demon’s head.
“NO!„
In an instant, endless demonic energy burst out from its head, and the creature gradually lost consciousness amidst its miserable screams.
Gu Changqing moved to the Otherworldly Demon’s side. It was only now that the demonic energy had dissipated that he could see this creature’s true face. It was similar to the previous one in appearance, but its divine rune power was different.
After fighting with two Otherworldly Demons, Gu Changqing had a certain understanding of the characteristics they had.
Firstly, they had a strong recovery ability. Even if they severed an arm, they could instantly regenerate. Even if they were cut in half, they could still reconnect their body with a secret technique.
Previously, in his battle with the Chi, the latter had shown its cunning and sinister side. But all of this had no effect on Gu Changqing.
The feathered arrow’s power was also displayed in this battle. There was neither any intense collision nor fancy effects. It was straightforward, where one arrow was able to break all techniques.
It ignored the power of any divine rune.
Gu Changqing had also made a new discovery.
When he was using the Spirit Flame to deal with the white shadow’s ice power, he unexpectedly discovered that the Otherworldly Demon’s fear of the Spirit Flame seemed to be engraved in its bones.
However, Gu Changqing was even more concerned regarding the flame’s origin.
Chaoge City regained its peace.
Outside Rebirth Bridge, there were no traces of the Divine Runemasters. The battle just now was enough to let them understand that this was not a place they could meddle in.
Gu Changqing pondered for a moment and communicated with the Divine Rune Eye in his body to reconstruct the city’s barrier. After a long time, the barrier was formed and hidden in the space above Chaoge.
L9527 suddenly appeared beside Gu Changqing’s.
“I was just about to ask you, what’s with the barrier?”
Gu Changqing was puzzled. When he rebuilt the barrier, he found a very important problem.
It was regarding the barrier’s stability and strength. As far as he knew, it wasn’t so weak that any Otherworldly Demon or Dark Divine Runemaster could break it.
Even the current Gu Changqing himself could not bypass the barrier so easily. Otherwise, there would be no need to participate in any trials in the later spaces. After all, wouldn’t it be more simple to just break the barrier directly?
There was no need to go through so much trouble.
“I was just about to sav the same thing! As far as I can remember. the barrier
has only been broken once.”
L9527 said seriously.
Gu Changqing’s expression turned serious as he carefully searched every corner of Chaoge City. However, he still found nothing.
He suddenly recalled, “I remember that you said that you lost control of Chaoge City when my subordinates and I were going through the city’s training space..”
