Chapter 307: Double-Winged Demons: Too Mischievous, Saturated Assault

A malevolent energy seeped out of the temple, and in a matter of moments, the negative field around it intensified dramatically, mercilessly compressing Ji Chen’s Tidal Domain.
The sea at the periphery churned wildly as if corroded by some kind of acid.
Ji Chen chose not to confront this force head-on. Instead, he narrowed his domain, maintaining it at a size that could encompass his entire army, reducing the pressure from the energy.
His eyes were fixed firmly on the temple.
Knowing that this temple was likely dedicated to some dark deity, especially with the strange resurgence happening now, he remained on high alert.
Of course, the resurgence couldn’t be the true dark god itself.
Even the most feeble of dark gods held the potential to wreak havoc upon the world, so how could there be such a disturbance?
At that moment, the trembling temple finally came to a stop, and the massive stone doors slowly swung open. A tall figure wielding a bone staff emerged from behind the doors.
With wings spanning several meters, coiled muscles, dehydrated and wrinkled skin that extended like scales, and razor-sharp fangs, the figure was an eerie sight to behold.
But the most striking feature was its abyssal, pitch-black eyes, devoid of any emotional expression, only darkness.
The appearance of this enigmatic entity instantly changed the atmosphere.
Oppressive, malevolent, and chilling.
It felt like a thousand-year-old iceberg had suddenly appeared, spreading an immense coldness that made their blood sluggish and their bodies rigid.
It seemed as if the sun had vanished from the sky, casting the world into an unending darkness, leaving only those pitch-black eyes in their sight.
Thump—
Ji Chen’s heart skipped a beat, and his mana surged out like a breached dam, desperately dispersing the oppressive aura that surrounded them.
When he snapped back to reality, he realized that, unknowingly, his Tidal Domain had been compressed to a size of just a few dozen meters, and many of his Soul Servants were already exposed to the negative field.
He hastily expended his mana to restore the domain, finally letting out a sigh of relief.
As he gazed at the motionless figure, a sense of wariness remained in his eyes.
Undoubtedly, this was something related to a dark god, and it was indeed as eerie as he had expected. They had come perilously close to falling under its influence.

A hoarse and eerie voice echoed directly in their ears.
“Ignorant intruders, you have disturbed the tranquility of the temple.
Those who are ignorant must pay the price.
I will bind your souls and use your blood to appease the peace in this place.”
As the words fell, the Amos Temple Dark Acolyte took a step forward, raising the bone staff in hand. An aura of terror emanated from his body.
From the skull at the tip of the staff, a substantial black mist spewed forth, transforming into countless tendrils resembling small serpents, and they burrowed into the lifeless Double-Winged Demons.
With a bizarre and twisted wriggling, the once-dead Double-Winged Demons actually stood back up, and their wounds rapidly healed.
Their once pitch-black eyes were now a deep blood-red as if oozing with fresh blood.

“All units, prepare for battle!”
As soon as the command was given, the resurrected Double-Winged Demons lunged at them.
Compared to before, they were now several times stronger.
Perhaps due to their corruption, even when entering the Tidal Domain, the suppression they faced was greatly reduced, with only a 20% reduction in all attributes. Now, they were no less formidable than Alice’s Soul Servant army.
At this moment, the demons’ razor-sharp claws, capable of tearing through metal, displayed their tremendous power.
With a slight tug, the flesh was torn, nearly sundered at the waist, and blood flowed out continuously.
A single Razorfin Seal found itself encircled and assaulted by two Corrupted Double-Winged Demons. Their claws pierced its chest, disappearing completely within its body, and then they yanked to the side.
Rip-
The Razorfin Seal, with its tough hide, proved fragile as paper under the claws. It was torn into four pieces, with its organs scattering in all directions.
Among the Soul Servant army, the weaker ones succumbed one after another under the claws of the Corrupted Double-Winged Demons, while the more advanced ones persevered.
As Soul Servants, they were like puppets driven solely by a desire for slaughter, devoid of unnecessary emotions. They would not retreat or falter as long as Alice, their “puppeteer”, did not stop.
Under such a frenzied counterattack, they managed to kill many of the Corrupted Double-Winged Demons.
A particularly bloodthirsty Corrupted Double-Winged Demon rashly charged in alone and was torn apart by dozens of Four-Armed Nagas working in perfect coordination, using over a dozen weapons.
Several Corrupted Double-Winged Demons formed teams to attack but were tightly embraced by dozens of Blue-Ringed Octopus Beasts. The teeth in the suckers on their tentacles tore through skin and muscle like a cutting machine, paralyzing and killing their prey with toxins.
These were just ordinary scenes within the entire battlefield.
The battle had heated up right from the start, with casualties on both sides happening constantly.
However, overall, the advantage still leaned toward the side of the Soul Servants.
The Amos Temple Dark Acolyte, who had been standing still and observing the battlefield, once again raised his bone staff. Countless tendrils of black mist penetrated the bodies of the recently deceased Corrupted Double-Winged Demons.
Surprisingly, two to three hundred Corrupted Double-Winged Demons, who had just died, were resurrected.
Even those torn apart, with their body parts drawn together as if by magnets, witnessed their wounds squirming and healing. They quickly returned to the battle, alive once again..
