453 Giving Up

The attack happened nearly instantly.

In fact, Holy Lady Strings had already tried her best to protect the Black River Guard. The goat demon had been wrapped with threads, and it had done its best to resist the attacks. However, the first Bloodblade pierced the Nine Lives Cocoon threads and struck the Black River Guard’s body, causing his chest to cave in. The second Bloodblade entered the Black River Guard’s body completely. The third Bloodblade shattered his body, struck the Life Casket, and destroyed the life core.

The Life Casket was extremely tough, and it served as protection for the life core.

However, when the Bloodblades struck the Life Casket’s surface, a terrifying force was transmitted, shattering everything inside it.

Just like that, the goat demon Black River Guard died!

When the first Black River Guard was killed, the originally vast 400-kilometer-long black river immediately calmed down. The black chains—which had been suppressing the True Martial domain-dissipated.

Boom!

King True Martial traveled five kilometers in a second. His True Martial domain’s range expanded to five kilometers around him, instantly enveloping Monarch Peacock-who had been laying siege more than five kilometers away.

“Holy Lady Strings, save me.”

“Help!”

“Save me!”

The members of the Black River Guard were filled with despair. They were originally fifth Firmament demon monarchs that reigned supreme in a particular region. Under the Imperial Lord’s orders, they willingly transformed into the Black River Guard. They didn’t have hope of becoming demon sages. After becoming part of the Black River Guard, their strength increased greatly. In the future, their status in the Demon Realm would also increase greatly. It wasn’t a bad option.

However, although they had accomplished something in their first battle, who would have thought that they would immediately encounter a life-and-death crisis?

This terrifying Godfiend hid in the deep void, preventing the Black River Array Formation from affecting him. Eighteen Bloodblades appeared in front of them, making it impossible for them to dodge! Every Bloodblade was terrifyingly powerful. Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!

Meng Chuan watched as his Bloodblades pursued the Black River Guards.

The attacks were split into two waves.

try { window._mNHandle.queue.push(function () { window._mNDetails.loadTag("386623558", "300x250", "386623558"); }); } catch (error) { }

In the first wave, he killed one Black River Guard. This greatly reduced the Black River Array Formation’s strength, making it unable to pose a threat to the Godfiends any longer.

The dark-cyan-robed Meng Chuan finally appeared.

Meng Chuan looked at Demon Monarch Cang Jue—who was protected by the Nine Lives Cocoon threads. There’s still one left. He then looked at Holy Lady Strings. “Do you think you can protect it?”

“Don’t even think of injuring it!” Holy Lady Strings flew over at high speed.

Hum.

An invisible Astral Wave swept over, affecting Demon Monarch Cang Jue’s Essence Soul.

“I-I…” Demon Monarch Cang Jue staggered as his consciousness began to blur.

The Eighteen Black River Guard consisted of ordinary fifth Firmament demon monarchs. Their Essence Souls were generally weak. Demon Monarch Cang Jue only had a fourth-level Essence Soul! Even with a Life Casket protecting him, his consciousness turned groggy under the Astral Wave. “It’s a pity that your Essence Soul is too weak,” said Meng Chuan coldly. A Magic Awl flew out and drilled into Demon Monarch Cang Jue’s body.

Cang Jue’s body trembled before he fell silent.
