109: Chapter 109 Purification of Light and Counterattack: Abyss Portal
The six legendary demons were completely wiped out in just a few dozen seconds.
This one-sided slaughter, occurring at the Peak power level, carried an impact far more lethal than mere killing.
Time seemed to stand still for a moment.
The deafening roars and sounds of battle on the battlefield abruptly vanished.
All the surviving demons, whether high-ranking or low-ranking, instinctively raised their heads, looking toward the sky where the two legendary Balrogs had finally been annihilated.
There, nothing remained.
Only Hyperis's massive shadow, like a mountain, was projected onto the ground, along with the cold air currents stirred up by Bone Dragon Theodore as it circled.
Dead silence.
A chill originating from the deepest depths of the Soul instantly gripped every demon's heart.
Their pillar, the supreme force they believed in, just like that... was gone?
It wasn't a narrow defeat after a bitter battle; it wasn't a fall after exhaustion.
It was a crushing defeat.
It was an absolute, pure crushing defeat, where not even a single moment of struggle could be made.
Fear was no longer a flickering thought; it transformed into a tangible cold current, instantly freezing their boiling demonic blood.
"Run!"
It was unknown which demon, using all its strength, let out a hoarse, distorted scream.
This syllable was the only spark needed to ignite the powder keg.
Boom!
The entire demon army's line instantly collapsed.
The so-called discipline of demons and their bloodthirsty instincts were fragile and vulnerable in the face of the absolute shadow of death.
They were no longer warriors, but a pack of beasts that had been completely terrified.
"Run!"
"Back to the rift! Quick!"
They cried and screamed, discarding their weapons, trampling over their companions' corpses, wildly turning their bodies, and fleeing for their lives toward the Abyss portal they had come from.
That Abyss rift, which once symbolized glory and conquest, was now their only path to survival.
However.
"Since you've come, don't leave."
A cold voice, without the slightest emotional fluctuation, echoed over the entire battlefield.
The voice was not loud, but it clearly entered the depths of every creature's consciousness.
The final trump card, which had always been hidden behind the scenes and had never truly acted, finally descended at this moment.
The Dominator of Light, Lumina.
In the sky, a tiny point of light appeared without warning.
The next second, the point of light suddenly expanded.
It lacked the scorching heat of the sun, yet it was ten thousand times more dazzling than the sun.
Lumina hovered in mid-air, her body completely transformed into a collection of light. Her features and silhouette were faintly visible within the extreme radiance, with only her eyes revealing a divinity-like majesty and indifference.
She was once a deity of the light element; even though her divinity had been stripped away, the essence of her existence remained the purest natural enemy of Abyss demons.
When it came to dealing with demons, she was a professional.
Lumina slowly raised her hand, as if holding up an invisible sun.
"Holy Light - Purification!"
Her voice no longer traveled through the air, but instead issued a proclamation directly at the level of rules.
Hum—
A high-frequency, invisible-to-the-naked-eye purification light wave silently expanded from her as the center.
The light, like the gentlest dawn, shone upon the human soldiers and Zerg Swarm units without any sensation.
But the moment it touched a demon's body, the apocalypse arrived.
"Aaaah—!"
Screams so shrill that no creature should be able to produce them exploded simultaneously in every corner of the battlefield.
Countless low-ranking minor demons' bodies, under the illumination of the light wave, were like wax figures splashed with concentrated sulfuric acid; their skin rapidly blistered, carbonized, and finally dissolved.
They were not burned to death, but were directly "erased" from the very roots of their existence.
Wisps of thick black smoke rose from their dissolving bodies, only to be purified again in the light, completely returning to nothingness.
The entire battlefield turned into a grand and terrifying spectacle of "melting snow."
The chaotic demon army, amidst this indiscriminate purification light wave, instantly fell into even greater chaos.
Relying on their stronger energy resistance, the high-ranking demons barely managed not to melt on the spot, but the blinding Holy Light completely deprived them of their vision, turning them into blind men flailing their weapons randomly in place.
"Opportunity."
Within Su Chen's consciousness, a cold command was issued.
The killers, who had long been lurking in the shadows of the battlefield, moved.
Just at the moment when those high-ranking demons were blinded by the Holy Light and let out painful roars.
A ghostly green arc of light flashed and vanished across the chaotic battlefield.
Ssh.
A roaring Succubus Warlord's voice stopped abruptly; its massive head soared into the sky, the severed neck as smooth as a mirror.
Before its corpse could fall, the ghostly green arc of light had already appeared dozens of meters away, passing straight through the chest of an Abyss Guard.
psionic energy blades.
Dark Templar Warriors.
They were the most efficient reapers on the battlefield.
Dozens of ghostly green light blades intertwined and flashed across the battlefield; every time one lit up, it represented the fall of a high-ranking demon.
Like ghosts, they precisely appeared beside every most valuable target, using the simplest and most lethal attacks to cut open the demons' Firmness shells and end their lives.
Subsequently, a faint wisp of dark energy escaped from the corpses of the slain demons, only to be instantly captured and greedily devoured by those invisible killers.
Their psionic energy grew stronger amidst the slaughter.
This was a perfect, multi-unit coordinated three-dimensional slaughter.
Hyperis and Theodore were responsible for decapitation, wiping out the highest threats.
Lumina was responsible for clearing the field, dismantling the enemy's organization.
Dark Templar Warriors were responsible for finishing off the remaining elites.
Looking at the battlefield before him, littered with corpses where Demonic Energy was rapidly dissipating, Su Chen's gaze passed through all of this and landed on the Abyss portal that was still steadily opening.
The red light in his eyes, originating from the depths of his genes, not only did not fade with the arrival of victory but instead burned even more intensely.
To any commander, being able to annihilate the demon vanguard, including the six legendary ones, at such a minimal cost, was already a glorious victory worthy of being recorded in history.
What needed to be done next was to stabilize the defensive line and wait for the portal to close.
But Su Chen's logic of thinking was completely different from everyone else, even the deities.
In his thinking, there was no concept of "defensive counterattack."
Only offense.
And, devouring.
"Since the door is open..."
A cold and cruel arc curled at the corners of his mouth.
"Wouldn't it be too rude not to go in and take something?"
He waved his hand abruptly.
A divine decree containing supreme will, like thunder, instantly pierced through the entire Zerg Swarm network!
"All forces, attack!"
"Counter-attack the Abyss!"
"Roar—!!!"
Responding to him was a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering screech issued simultaneously by billions of Zerg Swarm units!
That was not a simple roar, but a war symphony representing hunger and destruction, formed by the countless sounds of carapace rubbing, claws scraping, and wings vibrating!
The black Zerg Swarm, which had already set up a defensive formation, did not hesitate or waver for a moment upon receiving the divine decree; it instantly turned all its sharp edges!
The black ocean raised monstrous waves.
Braving the suffocating Abyss aura constantly pouring out of the portal, like a black tsunami moving against the current, they frantically and unhesitatingly surged toward the portal leading to the unknown Hell!
At this moment.
The roles of hunter and prey were completely reversed.
