Chapter 911 - 263: Assault

After seeing the battle end, Su Changxing didn’t bring Luo Haodong back up. Since he could completely transform into a demon at any moment, they couldn’t let him out, so they might as well let him stay below.

The Demon Race could launch another attack at any time.

He wouldn’t let the Demon Race destroy Viduo City, but neither would he help these humans drive the Demon Race away completely, at least not until he fully established his faith.

It was the presence of such a strong external threat as the Demon Race that allowed him to rapidly develop his faith and gather followers.

"This demon was quite weak, gone in an instant," Shen Jinxuan commented.

Sean blinked, feeling that this statement wasn’t wrong, but something seemed off. Then he realized it wasn’t that the demon was too weak; it was that Su Changxing’s power was too strong. Even a Celestial Calamity Demon seemed weak in front of him.

"Everybody, step back!"

Su Changxing suddenly shouted, then walked toward the tattered wooden token without shifting his gaze, his expression serious, sensing something unusual, as some presence was rapidly approaching them.

The space visibly twisted at a rapid pace, the ground shattering like glass, and hundreds of pale green hands of various sizes emerged from below.

Su Changxing’s nerves were tense, and a massive Golden Body Ancient Buddha appeared behind him, illuminating the dark space. However, he found that those green hands were not targeting him but Shen Jinxuan behind him!

Why!

This was completely unexpected for him. He couldn’t fathom why Shen Jinxuan was being targeted. Was there a purpose?

No time to think further.

The hundreds of arms of the Golden Body Ancient Buddha reached for those green hands.

Unexpectedly.

All of the Buddha’s arms were penetrated and shattered by those pale green hands, turning into flowing light.

Such power was unexpectedly strong, at least from a Tier Four entity.

Su Changxing’s eyes widened, noticing the green hands passing by his side without the slightest intention of acknowledging him.

Tens of thousands of data streams supported like gleams of light, transforming into chains under the force of faith, winding around those green hands.

At that moment, Su Changxing projected space from the Pocket Galaxy, forcibly opening up a hollow area within this world, like a bubble in a water sack.

"Huh?"

A voice of doubt came from the air, evidently not expecting Su Changqing to have such a method.

Hundreds of green arms were all dragged into the Pocket Galaxy by Su Changxing, immobilized in the upper realm of the Pocket Galaxy.

The surrounding space naturally returned to normal, the shattered ground intact, and the tattered wooden token disappeared as if nothing had happened.

Yet the hundreds of green arms in the Pocket Galaxy were truly real.

[Nether Hand: Rank A Crown, a mysterious item forged from a powerful soul, capable of unleashing great power under special conditions.]

All these hundreds of green hands were mysterious items.

"Are these all souls?"

Su Changxing’s face darkened upon realizing that a powerful unknown presence had silently targeted him.

No, they had targeted Shen Jinxuan.

This was a far more terrifying issue; Shen Jinxuan was inherently weak, and if the opponent were to launch an attack, their defenses wouldn’t hold.

If it weren’t for his enhanced control over the Pocket Galaxy, allowing him to block these green hands, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Even Shen Xuan might not withstand the attack of those hands.

"What were those things!"

Shen Jinxuan still hadn’t understood what had happened, only seeing a flash of green light before it disappeared.

Su Changxing calmly said, "Seems like someone has targeted us, but the problem shouldn’t be too big. Sean, lead the way to find other demons, hurry."

Sean snapped back to reality. Shen Jinxuan hadn’t seen what had just happened, but he had somewhat seen it: hundreds of eerie hands suddenly emerged from the ground... "Alright, in my memory, there should be a Celestial Calamity Demon in this area."

Shen Jinxuan glanced at Su Changxing’s expression, feeling a heaviness in her heart, knowing that the calmer Su Changxing appeared, the more serious the situation likely was.

But she couldn’t do much more, only able to pray in her heart.

This time, they weren’t so lucky, as the Celestial Calamity Demon in this region seemed to be hiding from them, never showing up.

"Previously, I was afraid of encountering these Celestial Calamity Demons, but now they’re hard to find when we want to," Sean lamented.

Su Changxing wasn’t in a hurry, carefully sensing the surroundings. This world was strange in itself, whether in terms of space or time, which made it hard for him to perceive distant situations.

Therefore, finding this demon truly depended on luck; a stroke of good luck might lead them to find it in the next moment, while bad luck might mean a long search.

Shen Jinxuan thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that the demon has spotted us already, but it’s scared and hence actively avoiding us?"

Sean nodded with agreement, saying, "I think it’s possible. These Celestial Calamity Demons are very cunning. If they encounter an entity they know they can’t defeat, they might really flee."

Since witnessing Su Changxing’s power, he had completely relaxed, no longer having the initial nervousness and fear, rather feeling a little excitement. Although he wasn’t the one taking action, he was leading the way.

The place was similar in layout to before, still connected by a long bridge, except that the stone bricks on the ground had turned black, not pure black but a dark hue as though painted with oil, having texture.

Su Changxing had walked here for so long and sensed some anomalies, asking, "Do you know what this demon looks like, or has anyone seen it?"

Sean displayed an embarrassed smile, uncertainly saying, "I’m not clear on the specifics. Information exchanged beforehand indicated that there was a Celestial Calamity Demon in this area, so people tried to avoid it. Someone must have seen it; otherwise, how would this information come about."

No one knows how many kinds of demons exist in the world, as chaotic life forms are inherently ever-changing, and even their shapes are not fixed.

In the third layer, although some survived, they were hanging on by a thread, not daring to provoke these Calamity level Demons.

Su Changxing made some assessments and then said:

"In that case, this information might be someone’s speculation, deducing the areas where few people emerge from so it’s possible to determine where a Celestial Calamity Demon might be."

Hearing this, Sean pondered what kind of demon it might be.

Suddenly.

He stopped, as if he had seen something terrifying, and then let out a scream while clutching his neck tightly with both hands.

"Ahhh!"

Simultaneously.

Su Changxing saw nothing and didn’t sense anything unusual, everything appeared as before.

Shen Jinxuan also had a change, her demeanor turning cold, with a significant change in her eyes, one blue and the other red.

Su Changxing asked, "What happened?"

"Shen Jinxuan saw something, it should be a demon."

"I didn’t see it," Shen Xuan added, the dark lines on her face becoming more pronounced.

She had temporarily taken control to protect Shen Jinxuan; otherwise, she would likely have ended up like Sean.
