Chapter 1842 - 997: Crushing the [Soul Eater]
In the battlefield,
after the appearance of Cecilia and the others, the entire situation on the battlefield instantly reversed.
The demigod demons, who were originally certain of their victory and ready to torment Lis and others, suddenly had a drastic change in expression, looking at Lis and the others with some fear.
After all, they knew quite well that even the most powerful among them, the Six-Armed Snake Demon [Scales of Suffering] Hestiria, was not a match for Lis.
Most importantly, as an Arcanist, Lis’s strength and tactics were incredibly comprehensive.
Only he could restrain others while they couldn’t find his weakness at all.
At least, the demigod demons present couldn’t find a way to deal with Lis.
This was why Lis could previously hold off four or five demigod demons simultaneously.
Moreover, precisely because they couldn’t find a way to target Lis, these demigod demons gathered as many forces as possible, hoping to use sheer power to defeat Lis.
So, that’s why ten demigod demons appeared in this battlefield of the Elf Forest.
You must know, this number was already quite terrifying.
On other continents, the entire continent might only have about twenty demigod demons altogether.
On the Fanor Continent, the demigod demons originally scattered across the entire continent were now all appearing in the Elf Forest battlefield because of Lis.
Thus, the Church of the Gods faced much less pressure, allowing them to spare manpower to support the Elf Clan.
However, these demigod demons didn’t expect such coincidence; when they were preparing to target Lis, Lis was also plotting against them.
Moreover, it was quite obvious that their preparation was too simple.
Attempting to suppress Lis with strength, their plan collapsed instantly when Cecilia and the others appeared.
And now, in the face of the suppression from the [Crown of Fertility], the demigod demons, once again feeling the pressure from the Gaia World, felt much weaker.
Under such circumstances, it was hard for them to face Lis again, especially since Lis now had so many helpers.
Escape!
At this moment, there was only this thought in the minds of these demigod demons.
For them, living in the Endless Abyss, fleeing was not a shameful choice.
As long as they stayed alive, anything was possible.
Besides, now it was the opponent’s turn to suppress them with strength.
This was Lis and the others’ home ground; even if these demigod demons fought desperately, they were almost impossible to defeat Lis and the others.
Of course, the most critical point was that there was absolutely no trust among these demigod demons.
For them, they were only temporarily teaming up for better slaughter in the Gaia World.
If they met in the Endless Abyss, a life-and-death struggle could even break out between them.
When occupying the advantage, there might still be some minor cooperation.
But once the situation turns unfavorable, or there is even a risk to life, how can there be talk of cooperation?
Whoever runs slower, stays to cover the retreat!
Although they could be reborn under the guidance of the Endless Abyss Will even in death, this was no reason to offer themselves to die willingly.
Resurrection comes with a price.
Moreover, having come to the Gaia World with great difficulty, and without having enjoyed themselves properly, how could they be willing to die?
At the worst, they could just go to other continents later.
Although those continents also had formidable opponents and they might face ridicule from other demigods, that was still better than facing the freak that was Lis.
Even if Cecilia wielded the [Crown of Fertility], a power derived from All Gods, in the eyes of the demigod demons, it was still not as threatening as Lis.
Trapped within the influence of the [Crown of Fertility], the demigod demons showed no hesitation in their eyes, only filled with restlessness and a fervent desire to survive after being sealed.
At this moment, they felt the invisible barriers formed by the Power of Earth suppressing their strength fiercely, which further fueled their inherent ferocity.
Without a moment’s hesitation, these demon figures transformed into streams of pitch-black light almost simultaneously, carrying a heart-pounding momentum, they hurled towards the border of the [Crown of Fertility].
The surging force seemed as if it was about to tear the very fabric of the heavens and the earth apart.
For a time, the air waves surged at the boundary of the [Crown of Fertility], with deafening roars resounding.
Facing such a fierce attack, gentle yet resilient golden ripples instantly flickered across the surface of the [Crown of Fertility].
These were the embodied manifestations of the Earth Mother Goddess Shangtiya’s Divine Power, resembling the most solid shield that took all the assaults steadily.
The attacks of the demigod demons crashed onto these golden waves and were instantly dissipated entirely, leaving only trails of black smoke.
No matter how frenzied the demigod demons’ assaults were, the [Crown of Fertility]’s seal remained unmoved, like a copper wall iron wall tightly trapping them in this area.
Within the [Crown of Fertility], before its power is utterly exhausted, these demons are almost impossible to escape this place.
However, likewise, these demons’ attacks would accelerate the consumption of the Earth Mother Goddess’s power within the [Crown of Fertility].
If they couldn’t resolve these demons before the barrier formed by the [Crown of Fertility] vanished, it would become even more challenging afterward.
Lis and the others coldly gazed at those demigod demons frantically trying to break through, their faces devoid of any superfluous expression.
From the very beginning, they had meticulously devised a thorough annihilation plan.
Seeing now that the demons were already cornered, they exchanged a glance without any extra words or pleasantries and immediately sprang into action.
