Chapter 220: Luring the enemy
While the three Marquises and the Abyss Demon were fighting, Chu Tian was already several kilometers away from White Jade City. A wild aura came from White Jade City that engulfed their position like a fierce tidal wave.
“Si, si!”
Their horses lost control with fright and were running around on the grass plains. It took quite a bit of effort from them before they could calm down their horses.
At this moment, a pillar of green flames soared into the sky from the city and the sky was completely covered in green flames.
Countless little meteorites fell down like a rain shower. They could feel the tremors even from here, and they were shocked by this terrifying scene.
“My god, what is that!”
When Nangong Yun turned around, she saw a giant demon stone ascend the flame pillar before falling down to the side.
Dong!
The land shook once again!
A kind of ancient and evil power was continuously released. Even the three Marquises working together would have problems fighting this monster.
“It seems like it’s not wrong.” Chu Tian saw the demon stone crashing and the fire rain, then he revealed a strange look in his eyes. It was as if he had confirmed something, “This is a kind of elemental Abyss Demon named “Hell Fire”. It is a lower tier demon of the Abyss World.”
“Lower tier demon?” Yun Yao found this hard to believe, “Why does this lower tier demon have this kind of power!”
“The beings of the Abyss World cannot be imagined by people of this small kingdom.” Chu Tian paused here, “The lifespan of this Hell Fire demon is very long and it has lived by stealing and swallowing others for a long time. If this was a ten thousand year old Hell Fire, then it could easily eliminate the Southern Summer Country.”
Yun Yao asked, “How strong is this thing?”
Chu Tian looked over at the city, “According to my estimations, it shouldn’t even be a thousand year old. If it wasn’t for the fact it had just passed through the planar crack and was seriously injured, we wouldn’t even have a chance to run away.”
Feng Caidie’s heart tightened and she couldn’t help worrying for her father, “What should we do?”
“The three Marquises will not be able to defeat this Hell Fire, but they will be able to consume some of its power. We need to take advantage of this time.” Chu Tian calmed his horse and then continued forward to the east, “Come with me!”
After charging forward a few more minutes.
A small valley appeared in front of them.
A mature and beautiful black clothed woman had been waiting for a long time. She had several long array flags in her hand, each one glowing with a red source energy array on it. It seemed like there was an energy sealed within that could be released at any moment.
“Yi? Isn’t this Aunt Chen?” Nangong Yun felt this was strange, “Why are you here!”
Chu Tian asked, “Did you prepare the array flags?”
Chen Bingyu nodded, “They’ve been placed according to your arrangements!”
Array flags as the name stated were items used to form arrays. They would be widely used in the next few thousand years.
Array flags already had source energy arrays infused in them. When they needed to be used, they just needed to be placed on the ground and the sealed energy would be released, letting the source energy array was instantly spread around.
Using the flags to create arrays made everything much easier, letting them form arrays wherever they were inserted. There were no terrain or environmental barriers and most array flags and talismans were all disposable items.
Chu Tian had made a total of fourteen array flags, four of which he placed on the four sides of the mountain and the other ten were in Chen Bingyu’s hands.
Chu Tian nodded, “Alright, everyone make your preparations. We will be going all out and hopefully the array will work!”
Yun Yao was doubtful, “The Abyss Demon is so strong, will the array have any effect?”
“These flags are made with divine blood and we’ll use the power of the Spiritual God to suppress the Abyss Demon, so I think it should be more than enough.” Chu Tian looked at the shaking city, “After Hell Fire and the three Marquises fight, its strength will be decreased which will increase our chances of succeeding!”
Feng Caidie asked, “With our distance from White Jade City, how will we lure the demon over?”
“There’s no need to worry, I have already sent the bait.”
“Bait?”
The three of them noticed that the little fox that never left Chu Tian’s side had disappeared from sight!
…………
Dong!
Dong!
The Hell Fire Demon was too terrifyingly strong, with every attack creating a large hole in the ground.
The troops of three states had been routed and most of the soldiers had lost control of their mounts before being killed by the Demon Soldiers and flaming demons. There were a few that were lucky enough to escape the city with their lives.
“Black Ink Seal!”
As the Hell Fire Demon chased after the three Marquises, it stepped onto black ink and the black ink instantly surrounded its body, forming many small runes all over it. The flames on Hell Fire’s body diminished like it had been sealed.
“Frozen Arrow!”
The Golden Arrow Marquis seized this chance to shoot several blue glowing arrows that flew out like streaks of light at the Hell Fire Demon. It was quickly covered in ice.
Ao!
The Hell Fire Demon gave a wild roar!
The green flames on its body burned as it melted the ice and dissipated the black seal, as if it wasn’t affected at all. Its right fist condensed strong flames and shot a giant fireball at the three of them.
“Hurricane Strike!”
The Divine Wind Marquis lifted his hands and released a violent hurricane. The flames entered into the hurricane and it directly swallowed it. The three Marquises were knocked back by the flames and suffered even heavier injuries. Moreover, they were running out of spirit energy.
Even if the Abyss Demon was very weak, it had strength surpassing the Awakened Soul Realm. Although it was very fierce, it still had most of its strength, which the three Marquises could not compare with!
“Let’s try harder!”
The Divine Wind Marquis’ blue robe was scorched, his arms were covered in blood, and his long hair was completely scattered. It could be said that he was in a unprecedented disaster, but he still did not give up.
If they couldn’t destroy the demon.
Not only would the Southern Summer Country lose the Thunder State region, with the Abyss Demon’s intelligence and its cruel nature to slaughter and plunder, it was a very big hidden danger!
The Western Marquis and the Golden Arrow Marquis couldn’t keep going.
“Feng Yuntian, what are you trying to do!” Shangguan Hong angrily reprimanded, “This monster is too strong, only a Ruler will be able to fight against it!”
The Golden Arrow Marquis gave the order to retreat, “We can’t make any unnecessary sacrifices!”
The Divine Wind Marquis expressionlessly said, “Then retreat. I must draw it out of the city!”
After saying this.
The Divine Wind Marquis flew into the air and sent several wind blades at Hell Fire. The Hell Fire Demon gave an angry roar. This weak little being was too hateable, not only was it stopping its recovery, it was was also continuously pestering it!
Why was this other world’s being so stupid?
He knew its defense could not be broken through, yet he continued to struggle and harass it……This was simply bringing about his own destruction!
Since you want to die!
Then I will help you!
As long as I swallow your strength, I will become several times stronger!
The Hell Fire Demon released an even stronger power and the wild wind blades were smacked away like rain drops!
“We can’t stop it!”
“Run!”
The Western Marquis and the Golden Arrow Marquis decided to run.
The Divine Arrow Marquis who insisted on waiting finally flew out of White Jade City while being chased by the Hell Fire Demon. That burning body hit the city wall and the walls were completely demolished, creating a giant hole for Hell Fire to walk through.
He was almost out of spirit energy!
The Divine Wind Marquis had reached his limit.
The Hell Fire Demon was coming in sight.
This is bad!
At this crucial moment, a group of ash grey fog appeared and it turned into a cute little white fox.
The little white fox jumped into Hell Fire’s face and took in a deep breath!
The fire on Hell Fire’s body was instantly drawn away, being half sucked away by the little fox.
“It’s Chu Tian’s fox!”
The Divine Wind Marquis never expected that he would be saved by this common fox.
The little white fox’s method was like a pervert suddenly forcing a kiss onto a young girl. How could the Hell Fire Demon not fly into a rage?
Peng!
The Hell Fire Demon released green abyss flames from its mouth.
The fox then disappeared and immediately reappeared behind the Hell Fire Demon. It took in another breath and the flames on Hell Fire’s body dissipated some more.
“Ao, ao!”
Hell Fire had been thoroughly enraged.
It gave up on the Divine Wind Marquis and wildly attacked the little fox that scurried around.
The Divine Wind Marquis took this chance to walk on the wind and quickly retreat. He gave a long sigh in his heart, “I have already reached my limit, it all depends on you now!”
The flames on Hell Fire’s body became several times stronger and it turned into a flaming giant.
The little fox could not stop and immediately turned around.
Hell Fire did not have a high intelligence, but it knew that the little fox was drawing it out of its stronghold. The most urgent thing was to recover its strength and it did not have time to chase this pest. It recalled its strength and then prepared to return to White Jade City.
The little fox came back to take another inhale.
Hell Fire flew into a rage.
This being was not strong and its absorbing ability was like nibbling to Hell Fire. The little fox’s absorbing power was not good and it could not kill Hell Fire like this, but it was like being stung by a hornet while trying to sleep, it was very annoying!
Alright!
I’ll kill you first then!
Hell Fire completely gave up on chasing the three Marquises and focused on chasing the little fox.
The little fox drew Hell Fire like this over two mountains before finally arriving in the little valley.
Actually, the little fox could not keep using its teleporting movement technique. At this moment, it was completely exhausted.
Hell Fire could feel that the little fox was quickly becoming weaker.
Hateable fellow!
You can die now!
Hell Fire raised a foot, preparing to stomp the little fox to death.
From the four directions of the little valley, red lights suddenly appeared. The four lights formed an array that overlapped on Hell Fire.
These flags released source energy arrays that overlapped like a spider web. It connected on Hell Fire’s body and the red lines began to seal Hell Fire, making the flames on his body weaker.
What was happening?
The Hell Fire Demon was shocked!
This power was not strong……but it was able to seal it!
