Chapter 608: Haoyue Descends (II)
Translator: GravityTales
In a flicker of golden light, they reappeared in the Jale Province. Long Haochen’s limpid golden eyes flashed with deep purple intent, and immediately, a trail of purple light appeared in front of him.
Soft purple halos took shape within a diameter of over ten meters, where a massive figure appeared.
Six pairs of extremely cold eyes were opening slowly, revealing different colors. A steady and grim aura came out from his amethyst colored body. Long Haochen aside, the others all immediately had chills from seeing his cold look, comparable to a deep pool of ice.
Only, when his six pairs of eyes looked at Long Haochen, the look on his face changed, making a complete transformation. Becoming amiable and excited took only an instant. All six heads gathered, crawling in front of Long Haochen and lightly stroking his body, just as if trying to gain his favor.
Chen Ying’er breathed deeply, extremely shocked, “Haoyue’s aura had such qualitative changes! Noble, proud, ice-cold, and his scales are so beautiful and charming.” At the time Long Haochen had summoned Haoyue in the battle against her grandfather, Chen Ying’er had already become unconscious, so this was the first time she got to see Haoyue after reuniting with the group. As a summoner, she naturally had a great understanding of magical beasts, but seeing Haoyue, even as the Spiritual Saint Girl, she didn’t feel an affinity with Haoyue. In other words, even the spokesperson of the mythological beasts was unable to interact with Haoyue, much less gain his approval. A magical beast with whom the Saint Spiritual Girl is unable to connect, what could that mean? What’s more, Haoyue’s cultivation had just stepped into the eighth step, still far from the peak for a magical beast.
However Chen Ying’er didn’t find that strange: even her grandfather didn’t understand Haoyue’s limits, much less her current self. Most of all, the stronger Haoyue was, the better that would be for the team. She naturally didn’t have a bad impression just because Haoyue didn’t pay attention to her.
Lightly patting Haoyue’s head, Long Haochen declared, “Let’s get going. Follow me on Haoyue’s back, everyone.”
Han Yu spoke in amazement, “Captain, I’m afraid this will cause Haoyue to expose himself.” Haoyue’s amethyst colored scales were just far too conspicuous. Even at high altitude, the sunlight’s reflection would make them very easily findable.
Long Haochen revealed a tranquil smile, “Getting found out by the demons is what we want, otherwise how could we attract the Demon God Emperor’s attention? I’m afraid that we are just going to have to play hide-and-seek with him for a long time.” This statement was full of self-confidence. Playing hide-and-seek with the Demon God Emperor, could anything else sound more domineering?
After evolving to the state of getting six heads, Haoyue’s body didn’t keep enlarging, but he already surpassed fifteen meters in length. Long Haochen’s group of eight didn’t feel crowded in the slightest on Haoyue’s back.
Haoyue lifted his six heads, extending his immense pair of wings. His massive limbs stomped abruptly on the ground, pushing his massive body to the air. That instant, his wings seemed to cause gales as he flew, his magnificent amethyst colored figure breaking into the skies, facing the south under Long Haochen’s instructions.
Just after Haoyue started to fly, a green glow of light spread out from Little Green’s head, enveloping his body as well as Long Haochen’s group inside.
Floating Technique, able to massively lighten total weight. This originally single-targeted wind spell was unexpectedly showing multi-targeted effects when used by Little Green. After the reduction of weight by Little Green, he flapped his wings, greatly speeding up and flashing like an amethyst colored meteor streaking toward the horizon.
Seated on Haoyue’s back, the members of Bright Glimmer of Hope were all extremely steady, but did not feel comfortable at all, because of the strange suppressing effects the unique aura released from Haoyue’s body had on them. Furthermore, taints of coldness were occasionally spreading, making them quite uneasy. This kind of feeling hadn’t appeared before, even at the time Haoyue evolved to his five heads’ state.
Cai’er rushed to tell Long Haochen about this feeling. After reflecting for a short instant, he determined that this should be mostly related to Haoyue’s bloodline force.
After getting his sixth head, Haoyue’s bloodline force was distinctly aroused significantly. That was the most distinct major change outside of the fact he had obtained his sixth head as well as another elemental attribute. That was the only reason for the feelings of unease everyone had.
Still, for the sake of this surprise attack, everyone could only bear with it. At long last, Long Haochen made Haoyue restrain his bloodline force and aura as far as possible to avoid affecting everyone too much.
Haoyue’s speed of flight was enormous: at the start, Long Haochen thought his speed would surely not match Star King, but he realized his mistake very fast. With the support of Little Green’s wind magic, Haoyue only kept accelerating, and completely surpassed Star King’s standards. Several thousand meters were traversed, and in merely half an hour, Jale City was already in their sight.
“Our target is the Demon God Palace in Jale City. After Haoyue descends, we will strive our hardest to destroy the buildings and kill the demons inside. But you must not exit the range of the Demon God Palace. Ying’er, Lin Xin, you two mustn’t leave Haoyue’s back. Ying’er, don’t intervene for now. If the enemy launches a large offense, your beast-summoning magic will serve as backup forces for us.”
After giving them simple warnings, Long Haochen patted Haoyue’s neck, communicating his intentions to him. The massive amethyst colored body immediately turned into a streaking purple meteor, diving down fast, straight at Jale City.
Every demon god was qualified to have a Demon God Palace built under his name. However, the norms differed: every twelve ranks, the norms would rise by a grade. The Demon God Emperor’s was undoubtedly the most majestic of all these Demon God Palaces.
Although Long Haochen was unsure of whether the Panther Demon God Auxerre was in Jale City, no matter whether that was the case, his Demon God Palace was surely built in Jale City as that was the area under the demon god’s protection. Moreover, that was surely the best building in the whole city, so even though this was their first time coming here, in the midst of Haoyue’s fast dive, they immediately locked onto the location of the Panther Demon God’s palace.
This Demon God Palace was located in the central area of Jale City. The massive palace reached up to a thousand meters in height, and its floor area, at least ten thousand square meters. On the front end of the massive palace, a panther-head-shaped entrance was visible. The fiery-red colored panther face had its large mouth opened, and pitch black marks extended from the forehead to the back of the head.
That was the Demon God Palace of the Panther Demon God Auxxere, the Panther Demon Palace!
All Demon God Palaces were built according to their respective demon god’s preferences. Magic arrays set up by the demon gods of the prior generations were set up, strengthening their cultivation and strength. Therefore, one could say that a demon god would be the strongest within his own Demon God Palace. Except for special situations, their demon god pillar would generally be stored in their Demon God Palace.
In the sky, a giant amethyst shape dove down, immediately gaining the attention of the Panther Demons inhabiting Jale City.
Panther Demons exceeding the sixth step had the ability of flight: over a dozen yellow figures soared above Jale City, heading for that sudden amethyst shape in a rush.
Panther Demons generally reached a height of two meters. Those at least reaching the sixth step had pairs of wings on their back, becoming Major Panther Demons. In build, they were close to humans, but with a panther head, and yellow hairs growing all over their bodies. The stronger a Panther Demon gets, the more thick and moist its hairs become.
_Roaa!_ An overwhelming roar sounded out, and immediately one could see six radiances of different colors rush out. The Major Panther Demons which had risen to the sky were their immediate victims, and one could see these levitating Major Panther Demons turn into trails of blood, as a massively oppressing spiritual energy came to view.
A large expense of fireballs, ice arrows, wind blade, light edges, fallen rocks and deep purple poison spheres came to view, engulfing the Panther Demon Palace. That was Haoyue’s bursts of attacks.
Don’t dare underestimate these low grade spells coming out from him. These spells produced a far superior might than ordinarily. Every one of these spells were compressed at least three times more than normally.
However, the Panther Demon God Palace was after all the palace of the Panther Demon God Auxerre. Those surprise attacks immediately activated its defensive formations, and pitch-black halos abruptly spread out from within, turning into a massive black barrier which enveloped the whole Panther Demon Palace within.
Concentrated magic was fired at that black barrier and produced all kinds of ripples, but did not cause any substantial damage to it.
The Panther Demons inside Jale City were still considerably fast to respond. If one were to survey from high altitude, he would see that a large amount of Panther Demons were flocking from all directions, while some Panther Demons came out from the Panther Demon Palace as well.
It wasn’t as if the Temple Alliance’s Demon Hunters didn’t launch offenses against Jale City, but that was the first time it was done so openly and fearlessly, clashing from the very front. In fact, such an attack would be faced not only by the Panther Demon Palace, but also the entirety of the Panther Demons in Jale City.
The Panther Demons’ clansmen were not very numerous, but at least ten thousand in count. Jale City being the land of their foundations, the most powerful Panther Demons were almost all residing there. The powerhouses of the eighth step alone were already over a dozen. In normal times the Panther Demon God Auxerre would also be keeping watch, and moreover Jale City wasn’t a neighbouring city, so even if such a brazen frontal assault succeeded, it would inevitably cause demon powerhouses to rush from all directions to encircle and annihilate the troublemakers.
Haoyue’s fast divine figure was about to reach the Panther Demons Palace as his previous offensive barrages of magic didn’t manage to significantly damage the darkness elemental protections in the Panther Demon Palace. At the very moment, his appearance was seen clearly by the Panther Demons below.
A six-headed dragon? From Haoyue’s grown wings, head shape, and horn, he was currently not looking like a lizard anymore, but closer to a dragon.
As all the Panther Demons felt enormous confidence in their Panther Demon God Palace’s defenses, and believed that Haoyue was undoubtedly going to be repelled back, his six heads snarled once again, loudly.
A layer of purple intent spread out from his body, clashing with the defensive barrier of the Panther Demon Palace.
