60: Chapter 6 The Abyss Demon King!

The ram-horned demon Balna was shrouded in an ominous dark red aura, every step he took making the space beneath his feet seem to wail.

His playful eyes swept over the panicked examinees on the platform, as if he were inspecting a flock of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

"That... is that an Abyssal Demon General?!!!"

Feeling the terrifying pressure radiating from Balna, Xiang Cang's fingers turned white from gripping his broadblade so tightly.

Under the extreme pressure, his golden battle qi actually let out faint popping sounds.

"How can this be..."

Ye Qingxian held her longsword horizontally in front of her, her exquisite and beautiful face filled with disbelief.

Baili Qiansheng suppressed his trembling and continued to move through the swarms of monsters.

"It's... it's over, we're finished..."

An examinee with a one-star Mythic Class slumped to the ground, his mind collapsing as a pale yellow liquid seeped from his crotch.

However, just as everyone felt despair over the Abyssal invasion, something even more despairing happened.

Crack!

Another rift suddenly tore open at the other end of the platform, and deep red fel energy poured out like a waterfall.

A figure with massive black skeletal wings on its back slowly emerged.

He was wreathed in roiling Crimson Demonic Flames, holding a runic greatsword entwined with vengeful souls.

"Another Abyssal Demon General... how is this possible!"

At this sight, even Ye Qingxian's voice carried a hint of a tremor.

A single Abyssal Demon General was already an opponent they couldn't hope to match.

The appearance of two at once was practically a death sentence for them.

Not to mention the thousands of monsters around them that had been corrupted by the Abyss.

These monsters were originally just simulated trial data in the illusion tower, unable to cause fatal harm to the examinees.

But now, this simulated data had been completely corrupted by Abyssal energy, turning into real monsters.

This meant the protection mechanism of the illusion tower had completely failed, and everyone could truly be killed.

"Jie jie, ten mythical-grade geniuses... it wasn't a waste of our efforts after all."

The skeletal-winged demon general Tastin let out a raspy chuckle, his blood-red eyes showing a hint of bloodthirsty killing intent.

Hearing Caston's wicked laughter, most of the examinees trembled.

Only Ye Qingxian forced herself to remain calm, comforting the crowd.

"Don't panic, everyone. There are powerful humans outside. In just a few minutes, someone will come to rescue us."

Ye Qingxian's words calmed everyone slightly.

"Hehe, reinforcements? Did you think we hadn't considered that?"

But in the next second, Balna gave a sinister grin.

"This illusion tower has long been shrouded in Abyssal Power by our King."

"By the time your human powerhouses break in, you will have already become corpses."

Meanwhile, on the high platform outside.

As Tastin appeared, the three big shots, including Ye Fenghua, Commander, narrowed their eyes simultaneously.

"Two Abyssal Demon Generals... the examinees inside the illusion tower are doomed."

"President Hong, Minister Lin, join me. Even if we have to destroy the illusion tower, we must save those children."

Ye Fenghua, Commander shouted sharply. His class was the mythical-grade Golden Dragon Lord.

A surge of golden dragon qi erupted from within him, and a massive golden dragon, looking as if cast from solid gold, descended from the sky.

Ye Fenghua, Commander donned the Golden Dragon Lord Set. His powerful pressure caused the surrounding space to warp slightly.

He was like a waking dragon god, his gaze sharp.

It was as if he could pierce through layers of space, locking his gaze onto the two Abyssal Demon Generals within the illusion tower.

"Alright!"

Hong Feng and Lin Haina responded in unison.

The momentum of the three top human powerhouses instantly merged, causing heaven and earth to shake.

Hong Feng, the mythical-grade Triple-Awakened Forbidden Curse Mage, no longer had his usual easygoing demeanor.

His expression was solemn, and a staff flowing with runic radiance instantly appeared in his hand.

He chanted ancient and obscure syllables, and the vast mana around him surged like a tide.

"Ten Thousand Thunders Heavenly Prison!"

As Hong Feng raised his staff, the entire sky suddenly changed color.

Heavy thunderclouds rolled and gathered like a boiling sea of ink, with countless electric snakes slithering through the clouds, letting out deafening roars.

The air was filled with a scorched scent, and even space trembled slightly under this terrifying surge of energy.

"Fall!"

Hong Feng gave an angry shout, and blinding lightning erupted from the thunderclouds.

Thousands of purple lightning bolts, like giant pythons breaking free from their shackles, hurtled toward the illusion tower with world-destroying power.

"Formless Void Barrier!"

Lin Haina, a mythical-grade Array Master, formed hand seals, his fingers fluttering like butterflies.

Countless runes flowing with mysterious light emerged and danced around him.

These runes were not static; they constantly reorganized and changed with the guidance of his fingertips.

"Form!"

He gave a low shout, and countless runes suddenly lit up, turning into an invisible barrier that spanned heaven and earth.

This barrier was not an indestructible solid object, but rather it constantly distorted and folded space itself.

It was ready at any moment to protect the examinees caught in the spatial rifts the instant the illusion tower shattered.

The offensive of the three human powerhouses had reached its peak.

The pressure of the Golden Dragon Lord, the Forbidden Mage's thunder prison, and the Seal Master's spatial barrier unfolded like an inescapable net.

However, just as their power was about to touch the illusion tower.

Buzz!"

An Abyssal rift, looking as if it had torn the sky apart, suddenly opened at the top of the illusion tower like the pupil of a giant beast!

What poured out of the rift was no longer a dark red aura, but Abyssal Source Energy as thick as blood!

This energy quickly condensed into a four-sided barrier that cut across heaven and earth, enveloping the entire illusion tower!

Boom!

The sky full of lightning crashed into the blood-colored barrier, letting out a world-shaking explosion!

However, that blood-thick barrier only rippled slightly, actually swallowing all ten thousand bolts of lightning!

"What?!"

Hong Feng's pupils shrank. Although Ten Thousand Thunders Heavenly Prison was only a low-level Forbidden Curse.

But when cast by a Triple-Awakened Forbidden Curse Mage like him, its power was definitely not something a simple barrier could block.

At the moment the blood-colored barrier swallowed the Ten Thousand Thunders Heavenly Prison, a blurry figure slowly emerged within the Abyssal rift spanning the sky.

The blurry figure gradually became clear. He wasn't hideous and terrifying like the two demon generals, but instead maintained a near-perfect human form.

Only the two winding black horns on his forehead and the demon tail slowly swaying behind him revealed his non-human identity.

He wore a robe with dark red patterns, embroidered with countless struggling and wailing souls.

When he completely stepped out of the rift, the colors of the entire world seemed to be drained away.

The figure stood suspended in the air, his dark red robe fluttering silently in the surge of Abyssal energy.

"Humble ants, taste your despair before the Abyss."

He looked down at the three human powerhouses below who were facing a great enemy, a hint of playfulness swirling in his blood-red eyes.

That cold voice also made the blood of the over one hundred thousand people below feel frozen.

Ye Fenghua, Commander's pupils suddenly contracted, and he couldn't help but cry out in alarm.

"The Abyssal Demon King, Athos!"
