Chapter 366: Suppressing Duke Devencula
Chapter 366: Chapter 366: Suppressing Duke Devencula
The pitch-black, eerie aura radiated waves of power that brought utter despair as it swept directly toward Duke Devencula.
Duke Devencula shuddered. His body bizarrely shrank until he was human-sized, left hanging upside-down on the Inverted Cross. The black Power of Void Demon surged from his body as he frantically fought against the Power of Evil from the Inverted Cross Synthesis Beast.
A pitch-black, transparent phantom materialized over Duke Devencula’s body. It opened its maw and began to frantically bite and tear at his soul, causing the Duke to let out a series of wretched screams.
’A Void Demon Duke really is difficult to suppress!’
With a thought, Shu Feng recalled the Inverted Cross Synthesis Beast into his Base Space, allowing it to continue suppressing Duke Devencula within.
"Hand over the Duke!!"
A vicious glint flashed in the eyes of three Void Demon Marquises. With a fierce roar, they charged toward Shu Feng.
Following the three Void Demon Marquises were thirty Void Demon Counts and over two hundred Void Demon Viscounts—all of them powerful members of Duke Devencula’s Personal Guard.
Duke Lamata gave a chilling smile and swung his sword. A black wave of Sword Qi erupted, cleaving a powerful Void Demon Marquis in two.
After slaying one Void Demon Marquis in a single strike, Duke Lamata’s figure flickered, evading the attacks of the other two. He then swung his sword in succession, unleashing two more waves of black Sword Qi that struck the remaining two Void Demon Marquises.
The bodies of the two Void Demon Marquises split apart and plummeted from the sky.
"Haha! Die! Die! Die!"
A savage glint flashed in Duke Lamata’s eyes. He charged into the crowd of Void Demon Nobles, mowing them down as if they were grass. Waves of black Sword Qi surged, dicing the Void Demon Nobles into bloody chunks.
After effortlessly slaughtering the top-level Void Demon Nobles in the area, Duke Lamata took a leap and vanished.
Shu Feng waved his hand, summoning Su Mi.
A cold glint flashed in Su Mi’s beautiful eyes. Wielding a sky full of blood threads, she commanded two thousand Dragon Hunting Dogs to charge the Void Demon Corps below.
Countless blood threads pierced into the bodies of the Void Demon Warriors, draining them until they were nothing but dried husks.
Whenever the Dragon Hunting Dogs detected the location of Void Demon Warriors, Shu Feng would immediately call for fire support. Beams of light would then shoot out from the Central Tower, blasting the Void Demon Warriors’ positions to smithereens.
Having lost their top-level Void Demon Noble commanders, the fifty thousand Void Demon Warriors were no match for the two thousand Dragon Hunting Dogs working in concert with the attacks from the Spiritual Spear Beasts in the Central Tower.
"Duke Devencula was suppressed!! Damn it!!"
Marquis Panes stared at the spot where Duke Devencula had vanished, his expression sinking. After glancing toward the Central Tower, he gritted his teeth and commanded, "Retreat!!"
Duke Devencula’s defeat meant Shu Feng possessed the means to suppress a Void Demon Duke. On top of that, the ten thousand Spiritual Spear Beasts in the Central Tower were like a terrifying meat grinder, shredding any Void Demons that dared to attack.
’They’re running away! Pretty decisive!’
Through the eyes of the Hundred-Colored Dragon Eagles in the sky, Shu Feng clearly saw the other five Void Demon Corps begin a rapid retreat from Fengmu Territory.
The remnants of Marquis Frey’s defeated Ghost-devouring Demon Corps, however, fought with the determination of a last stand, clashing crazily with Su Mi and the Dragon Hunting Dogs.
Every so often, a Dragon Hunting Dog would fall at the hands of these Ghost-Devouring Demon Elites.
’Impressive. So this is the elite of the Devouring Ghost Demon Clan. Truly extraordinary. With my current strength, I can annihilate one more Void Demon Corps at most. It’ll be that one, then!’
A murderous glint flashed in Shu Feng’s eyes as he looked in the direction Marquis Panes was fleeing. His figure flickered, and he gave chase.
"Provide covering fire!!"
With a command from Shu Feng, the ten thousand Spiritual Spear Beasts in the Central Tower began to frantically bombard the escape route of Marquis Panes’s Demon Army.
A dense rain of light slammed down, blasting the Void Demon Warriors around Marquis Panes to pieces and forcing them to scatter.
Duke Lamata suddenly burst out of a small alley, charging straight toward Marquis Panes.
"Get him!!"
A cold light flashed in Marquis Panes’s eyes as he commanded his Personal Guard.
Three Ghost-devouring Demon Counts and thirty Devouring Ghost Demon Viscounts instantly reverted to their original forms. Their figures flashed as they formed battle formations and charged directly at Duke Lamata.
Marquis Panes, however, also reverted to his true form, then abruptly burst away, fleeing frantically into the distance. He planned to abandon his fifty-thousand-strong army and escape. As long as he got away, he could always start over.
’Trying to run?’
A look of contempt flashed in Shu Feng’s eyes. He gave a chilling smile and, with a wave of his hand, summoned one thousand Hundred-Colored Dragon Eagles.
The one thousand Hundred-Colored Dragon Eagles opened their maws and spat. Balls of Dragon Breath fell from the sky like raindrops, bombarding the three Ghost-devouring Demon Counts and thirty Devouring Ghost Demon Viscounts.
In an instant, the top experts in Marquis Panes’s Personal Guard were wiped out.
Duke Lamata shot out from amidst the Dragon Breath, appearing before Marquis Panes at supersonic speed with a terrifying sonic boom. He brought his sword down in a vicious slash.
Marquis Panes swiped his claws to block. His talons shot out like steel blades, trying to catch the terrifying greatsword.
The greatsword slammed against Marquis Panes’s steel claws. A black wave of Sword Qi instantly flared, savagely striking the marquis and cleaving him in two. A huge spray of blood gushed out.
With another wave of his hand, Shu Feng summoned five hundred more Dragon Hunting Dogs. Coordinated by the Hundred-Colored Dragon Eagles in the sky, they began hunting the scattered Void Demon elites.
Seizing the opportunity while Shu Feng was busy annihilating the two Void Demon Corps, the four remaining corps retreated rapidly, boarding prepared Magic Energy Armored Vehicles and fleeing the city at top speed.
Shu Feng did not pursue the other four Void Demon Corps.
After all, those four Void Demon Corps contained a staggering two hundred thousand elite warriors and were teeming with powerful individuals.
If Duke Lamata were to face those two hundred thousand elite Void Demon Warriors, the slightest misstep could get him killed. After all, out in the open, he would have no fire support from the Spiritual Spear Beasts.
As soon as the four Void Demon Corps fled, the hundreds of thousands of Alien Race slave warriors inside Fengmu City also broke down, scattering in every direction.
Only after completely annihilating two Void Demon Corps—a total of one hundred thousand Void Demon Warriors—did Shu Feng begin to hunt down the hundreds of thousands of Alien Race slave warriors. In one fell swoop, he slaughtered over a hundred thousand of the Alien Race slave warriors who served the Void Demons.
Those Alien Race slave warriors were all slaves who had been subjugated by the Void Demon Clan. They, too, had committed all manner of atrocities against the humans of Fengmu Territory. Shu Feng had no intention of letting them go.
