Chapter 713 - 329: Celestial Kings
"Courting death!"
Seeing that the Sun King did not give it any face, the Outer Realm Demon was enraged. Immediately, its body was covered with jet-black scales, a long tail grew from its back, and a long horn engraved with a full ten rings appeared on its head. This was clearly its true battle state!
It swung a claw, and the structure of the entire space seemed to change. One Sun Wheel Spear mysteriously disappeared into thin air, and the remaining two spears swooped past the sides of the Outer Realm Demon like missiles disturbed by signal interference.
But before the Outer Realm Demon could celebrate, a dazzling sunlight suddenly burst from its side! Under the illumination of that light, the distorted space was restored to normal, as if breaking through an illusion realm. The Sun Wheel Spear, which had been interfered with and flown far away, turned around in the air and charged back!
The Outer Realm Demon let out a roar of surprise and anger, swinging its claws to deflect the two Sun Wheel Spears, but scorch marks were clearly left on its claws!
And it wasn’t over yet! The space suddenly fluctuated, and the Sun Wheel Spear that had been swallowed by a spatial rift abruptly appeared less than three meters away from the Outer Realm Demon!
Unable to react in time, the Outer Realm Demon’s abdomen was slashed open with a massive wound, and at the moment of impact, the Sun Wheel Spear exploded into golden flames like a fiery phoenix, burning along the Outer Realm Demon’s wound!
The Outer Realm Demon showed a pained expression, as large amounts of death qi surged out, barely suppressing the flames, yet it couldn’t completely extinguish them!
Chu Xiu noticed that the golden flames were like his own Sinful Fire, capable of feeding on the opponent’s life energy, only this fire was far more grand and mysterious!
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The two Sun Wheel Spears flew back to the Sun Wheel behind the Sun King. The flames, which had dimmed a bit after clashing with the Outer Realm Demon, were instantly replenished, becoming dazzling once more.
The Sun King wore a mocking smile on his lips, making an "eight" gesture with his hand, then pointing sharply downward!
This made the Outer Realm Demon’s face show uncontrollable rage; the implication was clear: with just one Sun Wheel Spear it was injured, and there were eight more left to deal with it!
"Human, perhaps my consideration has made you underestimate my strength."
"Do you really think that just because I left the planet, you have the right to challenge the might of the gods?"
The Outer Realm Demon’s expression grew increasingly grim, with denser death qi surging from its body, and its form rapidly changed!
The previously slender two-meter figure swelled visibly into a tall and robust form, the fine scales transforming into heavy armor covered with spines!
In the blink of an eye, the Outer Realm Demon had entirely transformed into the appearance of a Horned Demon, but its seven-meter stature was far larger than any Horned Demon. What’s more, an additional layer of markings adorned the long horn on its head, increasing to eleven rings!
And its aura compared to before had also tremendously intensified, the terrifying pressure making even Chu Xiu, who had already retreated several kilometers away, feel suffocated!
Now he realized that the Outer Realm Demon’s power was far stronger than he had imagined!
Its most basic humanoid form could shatter a Purgatory Demon Corpse with a single blow. In battle against the Sun King, not only had its constitution further elevated, but it also wielded a ten-ring horn brimming with magic power!
Bear in mind, even a Demigod General only has a nine-ring horn!
And now, the Outer Realm Demon even had a third phase state! A complete combat form and an eleven-ring horn!
Chu Xiu’s divine sense hadn’t even drawn near, yet he felt as if it would be seared by the terrifying power contained within that eleven-ring horn! He couldn’t fathom just how powerful the Outer Realm Demon had become!
At this moment, Chu Xiu recalled what God Attendant Ashtar of the Blood Pool had said to him in the Corpse Demon World, about how he didn’t know how arduous the Path to Divinity truly was. Now, Chu Xiu finally began to understand.
"So, how far has the Sun King walked on this path? Can he contend with the Outer Realm Demon?"
It wasn’t just him; almost everyone looked toward the field with worry in their eyes.
However, to everyone’s surprise, the Sun King, who faced the brunt of the Outer Realm Demon’s oppressive force, showed not a hint of fear, instead revealing excitement in those ever-calm golden eyes.
"Finally, a chance to really move around."
She extended her right hand, and a Sun Wheel Spear appeared in her grasp. The moment the Sun King held it, the spear burst into even more radiant light as if imbued with the power of a goddess!
At the same time, a splendid golden battle armor formed on the Sun King’s body, and in her left hand appeared a round shield inlaid with colorful gemstones, making her look like a War God descending from Mount Olympus!
The newly appeared equipment, both categorized as Myth, were at a Demigod level of power!
She soared into the air like a queen clad in the most opulent armor, fearlessly charging into the oppressive cloud of death qi amassed where the Outer Realm Demon dwelled!
"Boom!"
A deafening explosion resounded in midair, rendering Chu Xiu unable to distinguish the specifics of the battle, as even his divine sense could not draw near lest it be injured by the vast, raging energy.
He could only see the sky above, where death qi and radiant light intertwined, with terrifying energy fluctuations erupting, as if nuclear bombs were exploding in the sky every moment!
