158: One against ten

Poison Snake Demon General, like a wisp of a phantom in the dark night, silently weaved through the dim light and shadows, its body resembling the most exquisite dark satin, slowly coiling along the cold ground, each green-black scale perfectly blending into the surrounding darkness, shimmering with an unsettling, eerie glow.

The surface of those scales flowed with a faint green luminescence, as if stained by the power of the netherworld, emitting a venomous light that seemed to corrode vision, just like a ghost lurking in the deepest part of the night, quietly, patiently waiting for an ignorant prey to step into the inescapable, fatal trap.

Its eyes, like the most brilliant gems in the abyss, gleamed with a cunning and ruthless intertwining light, each flicker of its gaze seemingly calculating the optimal attack timing.

The constantly flicking crimson tongue, like a messenger from Hell, brought with it afishy wind that tightened the heart, the air becoming heavy under the stirring of thisfishy wind, as if even breathing carried a hint of death.

As the Poison Snake Demon General advanced silently, it dragged a dark green trail beneath it, so deep in color that it seemed to draw the very life force from the earth, even the ground beneath its feet losing its former vitality, a dead silence, foreshadowing the approaching shadow of destruction and death.

On the other side, the Shadow Demon General perfectly merged with its surroundings, like the elusive thin mist at the break of dawn, both truly existing and seemingly capable of dissipating with the wind at any moment.

Its form was elusive and unpredictable, always flickering slightly outside the focal point of one's eyes, making it impossible to precisely pinpoint its location even when staring intently.

The Shadow Demon General's eyes, deep and distant, were as profoundly blue as the sea, like a secret passage to another unknown world, capable of directly peering into Han Fei's deepest thoughts and emotions, sending shivers down one's spine, making all defenses feel transparent and powerless before it.

The shadows surrounding it, like loyal ghostly guards, gathered and dispersed with the light breeze, at times condensing into terrifying forms, their sharp gaze piercing the darkness, only to vanish instantly, leaving behind an inexpressible eeriness and uncertainty, making one wander in endless speculation and fear.

Next to appear was a heavily armored, massive Earth Armor Demon General, standing on the battlefield like a war god statue carved directly from the hardest metal.

Its body surface was as smooth as a mirror, reflecting a cold, silver light under the sun, exuding an imposing Aura of unspoken power. Its limbs were sleek and sharp, every inch like a blade meticulously polished by a craftsman, seemingly capable of tearing through the Void Realm with a mere flick.

Its eyes were as deep as an abyss, burning with an unquenchable fire of fighting spirit, containing a steadfastness and fearlessness that would make even the bravest warriors tremble. Each step it took was heavy and powerful, the earth beneath it trembling, emitting a clanging metallic sound, like a tireless, emotionless war machine, mercilessly crushing all obstacles, its target directly aimed at the young man named Han Fei.

And on the other side, amidst shifting light and shadow, an Illusory Demon General silently emerged, its form seemingly a dream woven from morning mist and night, both illusory and real, making it impossible to grasp a precise outline. Its gaze was at times hazy, at times fervent, filled with an eerie charm and indescribable magic, as if it could easily penetrate the Soul barriers of humans, manipulating their deepest thoughts and desires.

The surrounding space twisted due to its presence, circles of illusory light and shadow rotating around it, making it hard to distinguish reality from illusion, as if one had stepped into an illusion dominated by it, leaving all observers in a state of both confusion and fascination, beginning to doubt the reality of everything they perceived.

Finally making its appearance was the majestic Dragon Soul Demon General, whose mere presence was enough to solidify the surrounding air, bringing with it an ancient sense of vicissitude and nobility.

His form was like a giant Dragon from ancient myths reappearing amidst clouds, massive yet agile, muscles taut, as if containing the purest power and endless wisdom of the Dragon Clan Bloodline.

The Dragon Soul Demon General's eyes were like an abyss, shimmering with ancient and mysterious light, each blink seemingly telling stories of millennia, revealing a profound insight into the world amidst his majesty.

Every breath was accompanied by roars that shook the Soul, a natural great power that could make all things tremble and mountains and rivers change color, as if all living beings between heaven and earth could only bow down before this power, an inexpressible sense of reverence rising in their hearts.

Han Fei stood in the center of the battlefield, his deep eyes, like the brightest stars in the silent night sky, solemn and resolute, scanning the ten A-rank Demon Generals standing like peaks around him one by one.

The magic power entwined around each of them was like raging waves in a tempest, their Aura magnificent, as if they could easily overturn mountains and rivers, exerting an omnipresent and irresistible heavy pressure on Han Fei.

Although he had been tempered countless times in his imagination for this battle, simulating scenarios of clashing with these terrifying existences, when the true threat was at hand, Han Fei's heart was still inevitably touched by a subtle current of tension, like inadvertently touching ice in winter, making him shiver.

However, this tremor was but a momentary ripple, instantly burned away by his indestructible will, transforming into a deeper resolve and courage.

Han Fei knew that this was the ultimate Trial of life and death, and also the final verification of his understanding of Super-Tier Magic.

The first to charge, the Blazing Lion Demon General, was burly, like a warrior forged from pure flame, his entire body enveloped in crimson flames like an undying sun, each step leaving scorched marks on the ground, even the air burning and twisting, the pungent smell of sulfur almost suffocating him.

Accompanied by an earth-shattering roar, the Blazing Lion Demon General's wild maw suddenly opened, and a fireball containing enough power to incinerate heaven and earth, like a nascent star, with destructive light, streaked across the sky, directly targeting Han Fei's vital point.

Facing this torrent of flames capable of melting metal, a trace of extreme calm determination flashed in Han Fei's eyes. He did not choose to confront this fatal blow head-on, but his body remained still, his mind already turning, and he lightly shouted "Earthquake and Sky Tremble," his arm elegantly and decisively sweeping down.

At this moment, it was as if the entire world responded to his call, the earth trembled, as if an ancient giant sleeping in the earth's veins suddenly awakened, a vast natural power surged from the deep layers of the crust, forming an unstoppable wave of fissures.

Cracks appeared everywhere on the earth, like hungry beasts opening their bloody mouths, rapidly approaching the Blazing Lion Demon General. The destructive fireball that was originally aimed at Han Fei was slightly deflected by the impact of this natural great power, whistling past Han Fei, and finally crashing to the ground with a deafening explosion, heat waves rolling, flames raging, engulfing everything around in a sea of fire.

In the Blazing Lion Demon General's eyes, burning with fury, a trace of astonishment and confusion flashed for the first time. His massive body suddenly paused in mid-air, as if abruptly bound by an invisible shackles, his staggering posture appearing exceptionally abrupt.

A faint smile curled at Han Fei's lips, his eyes calm and profound, as if he had already seen through all of his opponent's reactions. At this moment, the magic power in his body surged like a rushing river, providing endlesspower for his subsequent actions.

A scorching Aura permeated the surrounding air, and even the earth seemed to tremble slightly, protesting this extraordinary battle. The ground beneath Han Fei's feet, unable to bear the immense energy released during their confrontation, cracked with tiny fissures, dust flying, adding a tense and murderous atmosphere.

With the casting of the "Spark Spreads Across the Prairie" spell, the sparks guided by the breeze seemed to possess sentience, elegantly spinning and dancing in the air, finally converging into a dazzling curtain of fire, dyeing the entire space with a layer of fiery red light.

This sea of fire contained not only destructive heat, but also a heart-pounding beauty, as if the brightest stars in the night sky had collectively fallen, transforming into the most dazzling and deadly fireworks in this world.

The Blazing Lion Demon General's roar echoed in the sea of fire, the sound mixed with unwillingness and anger. His fiery cloak, within this peculiar network of flames, actually showed a hint of dimness, as if even he himself could not fully control this power.

Each attempt to break free would trigger an even wilder backlash from the flames, just like a giant whale trapped in a fishing net in the ocean, the more it struggled, the tighter the ropes bound it, until its last bit of strength was exhausted.

In the air, a delicate balance was being established, on one side Han Fei's calm control, on the other the Blazing Lion Demon General's unwilling struggle. The contest between them was not only a clash of power, but also a battle of wits and will. And in this radiant contest, victory and defeat seemed to gradually reveal their outlines.

Seeing the raging sea of fire gradually taking shape, a determined glint flashed in Han Fei's eyes, and then he abruptly shook his hands, as if conducting an invisible symphony orchestra. The flames permeating the air seemed to hear a silent command; in an instant, the chaotic Wind Elementals, as if activated by an invisible hand, suddenly erupted with unprecedented energy. The sea of fire roared and expanded outwards, its surging Aura seemingly wanting to envelop the entire battlefield under the sky, devouring it in endless crimson.

The Blazing Lion Demon General, this overlord of flames, faced with such immense pressure, involuntarily let out a Soul-shaking wail. The flames that had once proudly burned around him now appeared dim and powerless before Han Fei's sea of fire, gradually losing their former arrogance, being mercilessly suppressed, slowly weakening, until they were on the verge of dying.

Just as the Blazing Lion Demon General was despairing, Han Fei's hands changed again. The overwhelming sea of fire that had previously covered the sky mysteriously receded. Those wild and untamed flames seemed to be kneaded by an invisible large hand, quickly condensing into an enormous fireball. The energy contained within this fireball made the heavens and earth change color, and its scorching light even dimmed the distant stars.

Before the Blazing Lion Demon General could react further, Han Fei had already hurled this fireball, containing all his wrath and power, with the force of a thunderbolt, charging it towards the Blazing Lion Demon General.

Facing this unavoidable kiss of destruction, the Blazing Lion Demon General could only brace his massive body and forcefully endure the blow. However, the moment the fireball collided, a power beyond all its expectations surged forth. The shockwave of the explosion, like raging waves crashing on the shore, easily overturned this fiery beast. The flames upon it became even more rampant, like the fires of Hell, engulf engulfing the Blazing Lion Demon General in endless pain and despair.

Just as Han Fei was focused on this breathtaking flame battle, a faint azure shadow quietly descended. The arrival of the Ice Wolf Demon General was like a sudden blizzard in the night. The surrounding temperature plummeted, and even the air seemed to freeze. Tiny water droplets instantly solidified into dazzling ice crystals, adding a strange and chilling atmosphere to this bloody battlefield.

The Ice Wolf Demon General moved with an air of cold arrogance and nobility. It approached Han Fei silently with light and agile steps. Before Han Fei could fully recover from the previous battle, a bone-chilling coldness assailed him from behind.

Perceiving this sudden threat, Han Fei turned his body with fluid and swift movements, as if he had anticipated everything.

His gaze met the Ice Wolf Demon General's cold blue eyes in mid-air. There were no words, only the Killing Intent flowing between them. In this flash of lightning, the power accumulated within Han Fei suddenly erupted. With a wave of his hand, he unleashed the "Aurora Slash."

This was his ultimate display of the exquisite Fusion of light and Wind Elementals. When his will touched the heavens and earth, the surrounding air seemed to tremble, and an indescribable fluctuation quietly spread. Following closely was an extremely slender yet razor-sharp light blade. This light blade was as thin as the first ray of light in the morning, yet it was sharp enough to pierce through all things in the world. Its edges shimmered with a light that seemed capable of tearing through space and time. Accompanied by the howling wind, the light blade traced a silvery-white trajectory, accurately and precisely slashing towards the cold Ice Wolf Demon General.

The Ice Wolf Demon General's reaction was like a blizzard solidified by ice. Facing the incoming light blade, its body displayed incredible agility, suddenly taking a side step, intending to avoid this extremely fierce blow.

However, Han Fei's Aurora Slash seemed to possess sentience, subtly rotating half a turn in the air, like a streak of light chasing the moon and stars, following closely without deviation, finally striking fiercely on the frost-covered flank of the Ice Wolf Demon General.

With this strike, a dull and painful growl echoed from the depths of the Ice Wolf Demon General's throat. Its indestructible icy scales were torn open by a hideous rift, and cold Qi gushed out from the rift, as if the ten-thousand-year-old ice sealed within its body was gradually disintegrating, losing its former sharpness.

Han Fei seized this fleeting opportunity. His wrist turned again, and a series of Aurora Slashes, like a meteor shower blooming in the night sky, continuously tore through the Void Realm. Each light blade accurately struck towards the Ice Wolf Demon General's fatal weaknesses.

The Ice Wolf Demon General was caught off guard in offense and defense. Although it tried its best to counterattack with cold Qi, the icy power that had once deterred countless strong individuals now seemed powerless before Han Fei's Aurora Slash, having lost its former might.

Han Fei's gaze was sharp, and his mind raced, instantly assessing the battle situation. A hint of relief surged within him: although the Ice Wolf Demon General's cold power was unparalleled, its speed and defense were greatly diminished against the sharpness of his Aurora Slash. As long as he could maintain pressure, the dawn of victory was not far off.

However, at this critical moment, an anomaly suddenly appeared in the sky. A sharp, piercing cry broke the tranquility of the battle. Han Fei vigilantly looked up, only to see the Thunder Eagle Demon General descending like a deity from a dark cloud. Its wings spread, obscuring half the sky, and the surrounding rolling thunder was like wildly dancing silver snakes, restless and untamed.

The Thunder Eagle Demon General's flying speed was astonishingly fast. Almost at the instant their gazes met, it was already close, its wings, carrying the power of thunder and lightning capable of tearing apart the heavens and earth, fiercely sweeping down.

Immediately, several thick bolts of lightning, like Awakened Azure Dragons, roared down from the Nine Heavens with rumbling sounds, targeting Han Fei, who was making a desperate stand below.

Han Fei's heart was like surging tides. He knew that at this moment of life and death, any hesitation would be a price he could not afford.

He took a deep breath, and all the pores on his body seemed to open at this moment, welcoming the immense power that was about to sweep through everything. He slowly spread his hands. Although this action seemed simple, it contained his supreme reverence and summoning for the highest thunder magic between heaven and earth.

The thunderclouds in the sky seemed to hear his inner call. The previously unrestrained and arrogant lightning, at this moment, reined in its ferocity, becoming docile and orderly, like tamed wild horses, waiting to be ridden.

Lightning encircled his body, forming an energy vortex that drew the surrounding air into a subtle tremor.

The lightning, which had originally been like sharp swords intending to pierce Han Fei, at this moment seemed to be guided by an invisible large hand. They twisted and rotated, finally converging into a huge and spectacular lightning cage, enveloping both Han Fei and the wide-eyed Thunder Eagle Demon General.

This cage was both protection and imprisonment, Han Fei's desperate struggle in a desperate situation.

A hint of surprise and disbelief flashed in the Thunder Eagle Demon General's eyes for the first time. Its wings, covered in a dark luster, shimmered with a dangerous yet captivating light under the reflection of the lightning.

It desperately flapped its wings, each beat causing the surrounding lightning to dance wildly, but it only made the lightning cage's light even more dazzling. Every feather seemed to carry unwillingness and anger, and currents leaped upon them, like countless silver little snakes, greedily devouring every trace of magic power fluctuation in space.

Han Fei's face appeared exceptionally resolute due to his concentration. Fine beads of sweat on his forehead glistened in the faint light, a price he paid for confronting the forces of nature.

His Mental Energy and magic power were like a dried-up spring, each persistence a challenge to his own limits. His teeth gnashed, a testament to his unwavering determination.

His eyes were like two sharp sword lights, firmly locked onto the Thunder Eagle Demon General. In that gaze was both resolve and an undeniable glint of wisdom.

His will surged again. This time, Han Fei almost mobilized all his remaining power, pouring it into the lightning cage.

The power of lightning suddenly surged, like a raging tsunami. The Thunder Eagle Demon General's body trembled even more violently, as if the entire world was shaking at this moment.

Lightning intertwined like a dense net, attempting to completely bind the Thunder Eagle Demon General within this energy-woven prison. The Thunder Eagle Demon General's roar, mixed with the power of thunder, echoed across the sky. It was a roar against the injustice of fate, and a silent admiration for Han Fei's power.

However, the Thunder Eagle Demon General, an A-rank Demon General standing proudly among many of the Demon Race, displayed astonishing tenacity and a power to reverse the situation in the face of the overwhelming lightning pressure.

It suddenly flapped its wings, the extent of their spread so vast that they seemed to encompass the entire sky. In an instant, the power of lightning, like a boiling ocean, surged forth, erupting from its body, which contained endless thunder, tearing the lightning cage that had bound it into pieces.

The Thunder Eagle Demon General's figure suddenly appeared amidst a flash of lightning and thunder. Flames of unwillingness and anger burned in its eyes, and its sharp gaze locked directly onto Han Fei, conveying an unwavering message – it would never admit defeat easily.

Han Fei's mind trembled slightly, sensing the threat from this formidable enemy. He retreated several steps without hesitation, his footwork steady and swift.

At the same time, he quickly wove his hands, complex magic runes dancing at his fingertips, preparing to unleash a Super-Tier Magic that transcended the ordinary and possessed astonishing power.

But at this critical moment, a sudden shock came from deep underground, bringing his movements to an abrupt halt.

Looking down, Han Fei saw an enormous Earth Armor Demon General, like a moving mountain, crushing towards him with unparalleled pressure.

The Earth Armor Demon General was covered in a thick layer of carapace. The surface of the carapace was rough and ancient, revealing traces of time. Its hardness was comparable to ten-thousand-year-old bedrock; it seemed that no sharp sword, or even the wild winds and torrential rains of heaven and earth, could leave the slightest mark on it.

Every step it took made the earth tremble, as if even space was shaken by its heavy footsteps. The air was filled with an ancient and oppressive Aura of power, making people feel suffocated.

Han Fei knew that the Earth Armor Demon General's strength was by no means ordinary. Any slight oversight at this moment could lead to irreversible consequences.

Therefore, he immediately focused his mind, chanted a spell, and with a gentle wave of his finger, unleashed the advanced magic known as "Void Rift."

Just as his fingertip touched space, a twisted and hideous rift quietly appeared, like a scar in space-time, revealing a dark light that did not belong to this realm.

At this critical juncture, the Earth Armor Demon General, with an unstoppable Aura, swung its giant fist. That fist contained power capable of leveling mountains, charging directly at Han Fei.
