Chapter 139 - It Is… Going Down
The six rings were burning brightly, leaving trails of fire in the sky. It looked like fire bridges flying mid-air.
The rings were getting closer to the dark figure. Several dark figures appeared from the darkness, flying toward the six rings respectively.
Their dark energy created a dark chain around the six rings.
Gu Changqing looked awful. He cast a spell and pointed at the rings. He growled, “Explode for me!”
Boom!
The six rings exploded like a volcano eruption. There were sparks of flames everywhere. The dark figures were instantly burned to ashes before they could do anything.
The explosion created a lot of smaller rings. They continued approaching the dark figure.
However, more dark figures appeared. Their realms were higher than the last batch—they were at least in the Yuan Ying realm.
Gu Changqing was livid. He screamed at the four elders who were not moving. “Elders, wake the hell up!”
The four elders were in a daze. They suddenly opened their eyes. They were confused at first until they realized the horror.
They did not notice that they had been enchanted.
They immediately noticed the dark figure approaching the red flag. They were so scared that they felt their souls leaving their bodies. They yelled, “You rat! How dare you?!”
They pointed at the dark figure at the same time.
Flames were seemingly alive as fire was dancing like a slithering fire snake. It slithered toward the dark figure.
From afar, it looked like ropes wrapping around the dark figure in loops.
The four elders looked serious. They cast the same spell as their fingertip emitted red sparks.
“Tie it up!”
Pull—
The fire ropes tightened around the dark figure.
The dark figure melted like a winter snowflake against the sunlight. The fire got bigger and spread through the dark figure. It became a burning man.
Gu Changqing dealt with the other dark figures, too. He stared at the burning man. He did not look happy at all.
The disciples of Azure Ville came running. They looked around, alarmed. Qin Manyun and the others landed next to Gu Changqing. They were serious. “Lord Gu, what happened?”
Gu Changqing replied, “This is the most vulnerable time for the fire lid seal. The demons will try to be sneaky. We didn’t know they’d be so bold!”
Qin Manyun said, “Should be careful. We previously ran into a Cross Tribulation realm Demon Man, too. If it wasn’t for the expert, we probably wouldn’t be here.”
“Cross Tribulation realm? There are demons in the Cross Tribulation realm?” Gu Changqing was intrigued. The demons must be onto something.
Moreover, they were unsure what the demons did, but the four elders were enchanted without even realizing it. They were defenseless!
His face dropped. Without further delay, he flew toward the burning man.
He lit up another fire ring in his hand and tossed it at the burning man.
The ring shot fast like a comet. It was going to be a headshot!
However, as the fire ring was nearing the burning man, it made a sound.
Ba-dump! Ba-dump!
The sound was like a heartbeat. Everybody heard it.
Suddenly, the burning man released a gush of wind!
The flames on the dark figure went out. The fire ring also bounced the other way!
Everyone took a step back!
The four elders stood up. Their bodies floated backward gracefully but they were spitting out blood.
Everyone looked toward the dark figure and was horrified by the sight.
They saw the man at the center. He was disfigured from the burning—half of his body was charred. No one could tell what he looked like, but they could see that he was smiling. It was extremely creepy.
He was holding a black statue in his hand. It was not a human statue. The statue was a ferocious beast with two pairs of eyes. It looked demonic and scary.
The demon held on to the statue with a menacing gaze and said, “I’m willing to be a sacrifice to welcome Lord Yuecha!”
Buzz!
Everything moved in waves. Everyone felt like they were hallucinating.
Tap tap tap.
They heard footsteps but could not locate the source. It came out of nowhere and it sounded like it was getting closer.
“Hurry! Stop him!” Gu Changqing was terrified.
Suddenly, countless attacks were thrown at the demon, riddling him with holes.
However, the statue kept getting darker as it spread over the demon and devoured him whole!
The darkness from the statue outshined the small red flag.
Then, it was as if the statue came to life. It turned toward the red flag and attacked it with dark laser eyes. The flag was powerless. It dropped to the floor.
The fire lid went out in an instant!
The wind blew!
Darkness rolled in from over the hills and spread out in a terrifyingly short amount of time.
Some weaker disciples were dizzy from the darkness. It affected their powers.
The eye-like demon entrance moved. It popped out an actual eye!
The eye looked emotionless as it glanced around. Everyone felt threatened and did not dare to breathe.
Splatter!
A claw reached out from within and ripped the demon entrance apart. It was tearing it open like a door!
Everyone lost their ability to think and went stiff.
It was still raining. They felt all hope drain away!
Things…were bad!
