Chapter 408 - 408: Lowly Insect!
“Reptile, whose believer are you? How dare you associate yourself with an ancient god!”
Xu Yuan’s mind was abuzz. The words seared his thoughts. He would have given up his soul just to make that voice stop.
The King of Decay was the ruler of the Bottomless Abyss. He was even stronger than the God of Light he had faced before.
Xu Yuan bit his tongue. The blood spread in his mouth and brought him back to his senses. Dark energy surged around his body and dispelled the fear and oppression he felt.
The King of Decay was indeed terrifying!
If it was anyone else, their soul would’ve been sucked into the abyss already. If this entity descended into the world, everything would end.
The entity wasn’t someone who could be fought.
Xu Yuan calmed himself. He shifted his attention away from the illusory image in his mind. He silently injected more power into the statue., speeding up its devouring ability.
The King of Decay watched him. ‘Is the Ancient god back?’ He felt fear. It was impossible for the god to have returned!
If it wasn’t the Ancient god, then it must be someone else!
The King of Decay had been planning to take over the Main Plane for a long while now. How could a weak creature from the plane discover the Dark Demonic Tree’s potential?
Xu Yuan didn’t dare provoke the entity. He was not at his peak and couldn’t fight the King of Decay if it came to it.
The King of Decay was willing to believe that someone was plotting against him.
The Bottomless Abyss was the birthplace of chaos and evil. There were no rules here. Although he was the controller of the Bottomless Abyss and possessed endless power, his enemies were equally terrifying.
“No one can hatch a conspiracy under my watch!” roared the King of Decay. Lightning lit up the sky and illuminated the red, blood-like clouds in the sky.
Around the throne, the rotting corpses began to squirm, as if they were about to come alive.
Xu Yuan could vaguely identify some of the corpses.
Lightning exploded again, and fear erupted in his heart.
Heimrigg, the King of Decay, stared at him. He looked furious.
The two sides were too far apart. The rules of the Main Plane did not allow gods to appear.
Unless he could break the rules, even the ruler of the Bottomless Abyss could not do such a thing.
The King of Decay’s anger pressed down on Xu Yuan’s mind.
Xu Yuan felt as though his very soul was being squeezed out.
“Destroy this insect!” said a voice.
The tree that was being devoured by the statue of the Ancient god suddenly erupted with evil energy tides that surged in all directions.
The Spiked Demons swelled up in size as the evil waves swept over them.
At the same time, the demons on the ground also began to grow taller. Their muscles bulged, and they grew in size and aura.
Someone like the King of Decay had the power to change the outcome of a battle, even from across countless planes.
All the demons in the collapsed ruins charged toward the Dark Demonic Tree.
The Lords were stunned as the demons they were fighting left them behind and charged toward the tree.
The Lords didn’t know what was happening.
“What did that Lord do?”
“Should we follow them?”
“Go if you want to die. Don’t drag me along with you. This is suicidal!”
“Hurry and retreat!”
“Guard the area. Don’t allow any of them to trespass through the defense line!” commanded Su Wan with a determined gaze.
She knew that Xu Yuan needed time, and she would try everything in her power to buy some time.
The Spiked Demons’ level had increased. They were confident that they could crush the enemy this time.
Suddenly their vision blurred. A demon felt a sharp pain in its neck, and it collapsed.
Su Wan had the space teleportation ability. She appeared and disappeared between the demons as she slaughtered them.
Su Wan had always relied on Xu Yuan while fighting, but she was ranked at the top among the Lords. She wasn’t weak.
The Spiked Demons fell one after the other.
More demons surged toward the tree like a wave..
