Volume 2 + Chapter 144: The Mighty Demon God Pillar
Xia Yi absolutely refused to fall here.
The swordsmanship she cultivated was never for showy sword performances, but for real life-and-death duels on the battlefield.
The little princess activated her bloodline power, her silver eyes emitting a faint glow, her blood boiling as if it was about to erupt, greatly enhancing her abilities.
Xia Yi swung her arm again, raising the Holy Sword to slash at the Demon God Pillar.
Once again, her opponent saw through it, predicting the trajectory of the slash, preparing to use force to suppress it again.
However…
Xia Yi suddenly let go, throwing the Holy Sword out.
This is my struggle to survive!
This move was obviously something the Demon God Pillar couldn’t anticipate. The unexpected attack gave Xia Yi a chance. The Holy Sword, thrown with all her might, turned into a flying sword, avoiding the long spear and struck the Demon God Pillar.
She wasn’t sure if it was her illusion, but she felt the enemy’s reaction had become a bit sluggish, as if… it was going easy on her?
But at the moment, Xia Yi had no time to think about it.
“It’s not over yet, explode!!”
The Sword Qi attached to the Holy Sword exploded like a bomb, the raging winds blowing Xia Yi and the Demon God Pillar apart.
“Ugh!”
Xia Yi was blown to the ground, rolling a couple of times before she managed to stabilize her position.
This was her way of fighting.
It wasn’t for the sake of being flashy. Even if it was ungraceful, she had to seize every opportunity to defeat her opponent.
“Holy Sword, release!”
Xia Yi controlled the Holy Sword Mark on the back of her hand, dispelling the summon at the fastest speed.
Then, she raised her hand again.
“Come out, Holy Sword!”
The Holy Sword appeared in Xia Yi’s hand again. With this, the disadvantage of losing her weapon was gone, the Holy Sword was once again in her hand.
She rallied herself and stood up, gripping the Holy Sword to face the enemy.
The Demon God Pillar was almost unscathed. The earlier counterattack was merely defensive, and it was not possible to launch an effective offense.
“Damn it, why is the opponent so tough, I can’t even make a dent!”
Xia Yi complained in her heart.
She was still in the state of bloodline activation, which could be considered Xia Yi’s serious mode. Fighting in this way could indeed improve her abilities in all aspects, but correspondingly, the consumption of physical strength would also increase exponentially, prolonging combat time.
As for how to defeat this opponent, Xia Yi still couldn’t think of any strategy.
Swordsmanship couldn’t deal effective damage, and magic was also not particularly meaningful.
The other party’s realm was several tiers higher than hers. Using the Dragon King’s Pressure might not have a great effect, but would further increase her own consumption.
“What should I do…” Xia Yi’s mind was thinking rapidly.
In battle, finding the opponent’s weakness is very important, especially when there is a huge gap in strength, a weakness can become a turning point.
But now, she couldn’t find any obvious flaws in her opponent no matter what.
Both offensive and defensive capabilities were impeccable.
Bang!
The Demon God Pillar gripped its long spear and fiercely shook the ground, as if it had made some kind of decision, and charged towards Xia Yi.
Under the state of bloodline activation, Xia Yi’s silver eyes clearly saw the opponent’s movements, she pre-read them, ready to catch and counterattack.
The long spear and the Holy Sword collided.
Boom!
“Oh no!”
Xia Yi’s arm received a strong impact. The opponent seemed to have brought out its true skill It had been holding back before, now its strength suddenly increased by several levels.
This exceeded the limit her body could withstand. Her limbs briefly lost sensation.
This was the absolute advantage brought by strength. Xia Yi knew what the opponent was going to do next, but could only watch helplessly.
After the Holy Sword was deflected, the sharp edge swept towards Xia Yi’s neck. She could only activate Chant Regulation… At the last moment, she released an Ice Magic Shield to protect her vitals.
The long spear didn’t touch her neck, but at the last moment, it changed direction, grazing her shoulder.
Thud!
The Demon God Pillar continued to spin the spear shaft, sending Xia Yi flying, crashing into the mountain wall.
“Bastard, looking down on me?” Xia Yi was very unwilling.
The silver-haired loli crawled up from the ground. Just as she was about to send a few sword slashes to the other side, she felt a terrifying presence.
Even without turning around, she already realized what had happened. Her body froze in place.
Belial, who had closed his eye before, opened it again, staring at Xia Yi.
And this time, the gaze of the Legendary Beast had changed, different from before.
Why?
Xia Yi, enduring the terrifying pressure, slowly turned her head to face Belial’s eye.
She discovered that her own blood had stained Belial’s eye.
Just now, the unknown Demon God Pillar had wounded her shoulder and sent her flying onto Belial’s eye. It should have been at that time that the blood flowing out had stained it.
If previously the Beast of Sloth’s attitude towards her was like looking at dust with contempt.
Now, it had changed, and it actually showed a hint… of interest?
She couldn’t understand the meaning behind Belial’s gaze, but she could clearly feel that it had set its sight on Xia Yi.
The ground under her feet began to shake, the entire valley was trembling non-stop, to be precise, it was Belial’s body that was moving.
Then, on the Beast of Sloth, the 72 Demon God Pillars also began to change.
The surface of the Demon God Pillars peeled off, revealing the original appearance of the giant beasts. Accompanied by roars, the Demon God Pillars awakened from their long-term seals. The winged giant beasts flew into the air.
The gazes of all the Demon God Pillars fell on Xia Yi.
The Demon God Pillars all developed a strange obsession with her, it wasn’t just simple killing intent.
Even in the past, when the Dragon King led the dragons in battle against Belial, the outcome was still tragic.
That really could no longer be called a battle. Perhaps it was most appropriate to describe it as a calamity.
Under their oppression, Xia Yi only felt fear… A considerable number of Demon God Pillars had already reached the level of the Dragon King.
The combined aura of all the Demon God Pillars almost crushed her to the ground, unable to breathe.
They actually wanted to see Xia Yi submit and kneel.
However…
“No! I won’t submit!” Xia Yi gripped her Holy Sword tightly.
Just like when she challenged the dragons in the past, under extremely desperate circumstances, her Sword Heart was still clear.
Even if she couldn’t see a glimmer of hope, she would rather fight to the last moment than humiliatingly choose to give up.
And the Holy Sword responded to her will, shining with unprecedented radiance.
“Come at me, Demon God Pillars!”
