Chapter 656: Demon Palace

The Three Ghost Servants, Hastings Divine Branch’s Steve, and the old man in luxurious clothes from Longbarton Divine Branch, had all separated and occupied a side. They encircled Algernon Divine Branch’s Batter in the middle, and they all built their power as they got ready for action. They emitted intense Energy Ripples, and giant waves arose in the Moon Lake. The lake had just calmed down, yet it became raging again.

The three great factions assembled together to teach the arrogant and aggressive Algernon Divine Branch a lesson. A great battle would shortly occur.

“Steve, we want just half of the Moon Soul Stone. That isn’t too excessive.” Battier was clad in black heavy armor. He was encircled by the crowd, yet he still seemed fearless. His expression was ice-cold, and he paused for a moment before he said, “Even if you join hands, you still won’t be a match for our Algernon Divine Branch. So if you don’t want to die, then retreat as soon as possible.”

Swoosh!

A gust blew over, and it blew at Battier’s long hair, which was draped over his shoulder. His sharp face was expressionless and as ice-cold as ten-thousand-year-old ice.

He was a Sixth-Level Divine Duty Expert, and he led Algernon Divine Branch’s main battle army to wage war everywhere. He conquered many Divine Branches and Materialistic Planes. He was ruthless, experienced, and he made many contributions. Even though he was encircled by the crowd, he still kept his calm and was confident in his power.

Divine Duty Experts were divided into nine levels, which included the Divine Lords. Every level was also divided into low-stage, mid-stage, high-stage, and an apex stage. Experts with the apex stage’s power were usually stronger than people at the high-stage by a dozenfold or even several hundredfold. Even the power of similar First-Level Experts at the apex stage wouldn’t be equal due to the difference between their Divine Branches, and the disparity between them could be great.

Algernon Divine Branch was one of the most outstanding Divine Branches among the numerous Divine Branches present in the Great Planes, and the long-haired Battier had already reached the Sixth-Level Divine Duty Stage’s peak and was close to becoming a Seventh-Level Divine Duty Expert. This was why he was still unfazed even though he was encircled by a few experts at the Sixth-Level Divine Duty Stage. He was confident in his power.

The crux was that there was still another peerless expert like Bogans. Even a large number of ordinary Divine Duty Experts weren’t a match for him, and they wouldn’t be able to deal with him unless the Lich King, Hastings Divine Lord, or Longbarton Divine Lord came over personally.

“Humph, Battier. You are too impudent. Try our Green Flame.” The hanged ghost-like Three Ghost Servants let out a shout at the same time, and green flames came out of their bodies. The flames shone with green radiance and emitted a foul smell. If one observed the flames carefully, he would discover that they still contained a terrible soul attack. The flames were filled with resentment, and it was unknown how many ghosts they absorbed by force.

“Giant Spirit Divine Palm!” The white-robed Steve faced Battier, who had great prestige, and didn’t dare take this carelessly. He used Hastings Divine Branch’s ultimate skill. A giant palm appeared suddenly in the air and created a ghastly spatial fissure.

The old man in luxurious clothes from Longbarton Divine Branch wasn’t like the strong Three Ghost Servants and Steve, but he was still composed and he moved back by several steps with his few guards. He took a cross-shaped crossbow from his spatial ring and put in it a sharp arrow.

The arrow was black and it seemed like it wasn’t any different than an ordinary arrow. One wouldn’t even detect any Energy Ripples from it, but if one observed it carefully, he would notice that the air around the arrow’s tip was distorted and many fine spatial fissures, which couldn’t be easily seen by the naked eye, would frequently appear around them.

God-Slaughtering Arrow!

This was Longbarton Divine Branch’s pride and it was a masterpiece that represented their apex craftsmanship. This masterpiece finally appeared in front of the crowd.

In an instant, the people in the vicinity quieted and even the expression of the long-haired Battier changed. Longbarton Divine Branch’s God-Slaughtering Arrows were known as the Master Divine Weapons with the highest offensive power and they possessed great offensive power. Even if Battier was stronger than this, he still wouldn’t dare to take carelessly Longbarton Divine Branch’s God-Slaughtering Arrow, which had ominous fame that spread far and wide.

His expression turned very grave.

Even the expression of the arrogant Dio on the ground changed upon seeing the God-Slaughtering Arrow in the hands of the old man in luxurious clothes. Even the weakest Divine Branch had its own outstanding traits, let alone the famous Longbarton Divine Branch. The power of the old man in luxurious clothes wasn’t too great, but the God-Slaughtering Arrow in his hands possessed terrifying offensive power and wasn’t an ordinary Master Divine Weapon.

“A God-Slaughtering Arrow, oh my God! It’s really the legendary God-Slaughtering Arrow.”

“I didn’t expect this. Longbarton Divine Branch didn’t just dispatch a large number of people, it still used the God-Slaughtering Arrow.”

..

When the crowd saw the cross-shaped crossbow in the hand of the old man in luxurious clothes, they got quite excited and they discussed this spiritedly. Yang Ling quickly managed to understand everything through the crowd’s discussion and he understood the terror of God-Slaughtering Arrows.

“Arrows that can slaughter Gods, hehe. An arrow for every person. Let’s see how many members of Algernon Divine Branch will die.” The old man in luxurious clothes from Longbarton didn’t attack even after a long, and Yang Ling wished badly to teleport over and steal the arrows. If he used an arrow on every person, he would manage to kill Dio and the guards with him.

“Hahaha, Battier. Come over and show us your Algernon Divine Branch’s great power.” The 3 Ghost Servants, who were supported by the old man in luxurious clothes, became spirited and they laughed loudly. Their green flames turned more intense and they got ready to carry out fierce attacks. As for the Giant Spirit Divine Palm in the air, it also turned larger and it covered both the sky and sun alike as it floated in the air.

“It’s enough, you have ended in this state over fighting for a small Moon Soul Stone. Is it worth it?” When a great battle was about to occur, a black-clothed man spoke and rushed over. A cold light streaked across the air, and the Moon Soul Stone, as well as the reef beneath it, were quietly cut into 2 halves.

A shocking sword strike!

None had seen how the black-clothed man unsheathed his sword and none saw how he attacked. Even Yang Ling who was hiding in the Restriction Spell just caught a glimpse of cold light. The black-clothed man’s high speed and sharp attack were beyond ordinary people’s imaginations.

“Bogans, Algernon Divine Branch’s Bogans.”

There was a ring with 8 dragon’s heads around the black-clothed man’s finger and one side of his face was charred and black, while the other was fair and tender like a baby’s face. When the 3 Ghost Servants, Steve, and others saw this, their bodies shivered and their expression changed drastically. None expected that Algernon Divine Branch would dispatch an expert at this level.

It was no wonder that Dio was so arrogant and it was no wonder that Battier was confident and fearless. It turned out that this was the reason behind it.

After the 3 Ghost Servants, Steve and the old man in luxurious clothes from Longbarton Divine Branch exchanged glances, they chose wisely to stop fighting. Even if they joined hands, they weren’t sure that they could contend against a peerless powerhouse like Bogans. Even the God-Slaughtering Arrows couldn’t assure their victory.

A powerhouse with power at the peak of the Eighth-Level. This was the strongest Divine Duty Expert other than Divine Lords, and his power was beyond ordinary people’s imagination.

Bogans appeared suddenly and obstructed an intense battle. He stunned the crowd greatly and everyone in the vicinity, who were watching this, left quickly. They started making plans for the next operations. As for powerful wanderers like the Rain Demon, who were hiding among the crowd, kept a low-profile and hid.

Everyone waited calmly for the Demon Palace’s opening, and even Yang Ling, who was hiding in a Restriction Spell, wasn’t an exception to this.

He witnessed with his own eyes the power of great factions and he also understood the terror of Algernon Divine Branch’s Bogans. This was why he set up several other layers of Restriction Spell on his hiding spot and he hid carefully.

The closer they got to the Demon Palace’s opening time, the higher the frequency of the island’s quaking and the more intense they became. Giant waves arose on the lake frequently and none could cross the lake other than a few experts able to fly.

But, Yang Ling learned through the Flying Dragon King Seylius’s Soul Message that he had already found Richardson, who rushed here with great difficulty. He allowed Richardson to teleport into the island through the Teleportation Formation Spell before, and after he had done so, he summoned the tearful beauty Sala. He allowed both people to reunite.

Their separation lasted for a whole month. They yearned for each other and they had their own stories to recount.

Richardson and the beauty Sal were so excited that they shed tears and they hugged each other tightly. They both seemed reluctant to part with each other. When Yang Ling saw this, he let out a sigh and sat down cross-legged. His mind was clear and bright. He was thinking about Bogans’ shocking sharp sword strike.

2 days quickly passed!

After the island went through 100 earthquakes of different magnitudes, its terrain changed beyond recognition and some regions’ ground had already collapsed or became filled with deep fissures. As for some rocks, they already turned into a mudflat. But, the towering palace’s large gate was still shut and didn’t suffer any damages.

This morning, the most intense earthquake occurred, and even the indestructible gate, which was covered with symbols, collapsed with a large rumble. The gloomy interior of the palace was revealed and wild beast-like roars echoed out ceaselessly. The roars were quite vigorous and they were accompanied by a berserk and destructive aura that spread far away.

“Hurry up, the Demon Palace was opened. Go inside quickly.”

“We must find the Black-Horned Demon quickly and kill him. If we don’t do so, we will be eaten by him.”

…

When the crowd saw the gate that collapsed, they got quite excited and they followed the great factions’ members into the interior. It was said that the Demon Palace was filled with Ancient Gods and Devils’ Godhead and Divine Weapon. They had all went through many difficulties and overcome the interception of many Abyssal Demons to wait for this day. None wanted to miss this golden and rate opportunity.

“Richardson, it will be better for us to separate and act separately. You should be careful, and if you run into any difficulties, shatter this crystal and I will rush over quickly.” Yang Ling observed the gloomy palace. He didn’t take action hurriedly and he waved his hand to summon the Corpse Wizard King, Ophelia, and others. He muttered to himself for a moment before he decided to separate from Richardson and the few wanderers with him.

In this entry to the Demon Palace, he didn’t just want to look for Ancient Gods and Devils’ Godhead and Divine Weapons, he still planned to tag behind the great Divine Branches’ people and see whether he could take advantage of a crisis for his personal gains. He also wanted to look for a chance to kill Dior. This was why it wasn’t convenient for him to travel with Richardson’s group.
