Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2708 1488: Fierce Battle and Twists and Turns
With the fall of that eerie and lethal voice, a fierce tempest exploded inside the Dark Hall, as chilling winds filled every corner. A gigantic pillar of dark mist plunged from above, linking straight away with the demon's colossal form.
Empowered by the enormous dark mist pillar, the demon's already horrifying presence skyrocketed. The protective shield, which Leo Ray and his allies had severely damaged earlier, returned to full strength, appearing even more robust than initially.
"Not good, this presence matches the earlier Undead Spirit Restriction Barrier perfectly; this creature is drawing from the black fog miasma beyond as well!"
Frank reacted quickest, shouting it out.
Upon hearing that, and piecing together the scenario, Leo Ray's face darkened further.
This clearly indicates that, as long as the black fog surrounding them isn't fully depleted, the demon will probably stay at this maximum power level.
From the moment they entered the Land of the Undead, the black fog's thickness defied description, practically endless. Doesn't that suggest the foe will keep dominating without end?
"It's just like what happened before with the Malevolent Deity's Chosen Son; these beings adore pulling this move."
Sweat poured in heavy drops from Leo Ray's brow, his breathing growing heavier by the second.
In the past, the Malevolent Deity's Chosen Son drew strength from the Tree of Blood and Darkness; smashing it ended the threat. Yet this demon sources its might from the black fog blanketing the whole area. How could anyone eliminate the mist?
Surrounding Leo Ray, as they stared at the demon's huge frame tied to the black fog, the figures in pink hoods recognized the dire circumstances too, their faces mirroring his severity.
Prior to this point, guided by Leo Ray, they had battled fiercely and caught a glimpse of hope.
However, the thick black fog now crashing down from the heavens had surely sealed off that slim ray of light, plunging all into utter gloom, brimming with doom and hopelessness.
"Ants, your path to oblivion starts now!"
A bone-chilling voice rang out; the demon's visage twisted in rage, its line of crimson eyes gleaming fiercely. Innumerable fist-sized acidic spheres formed instantly around its immense body, packed like a raging rainstorm, hurtling straight at them!
The very next instant, while those acidic spheres hung in the air, they were yanked forward abruptly, now mere breaths from their group!
"Watch out, the enemy's employing space manipulation once more!"
Even before the pink-hooded speaker finished, a relentless barrage of acidic blasts detonated nearby, the noise shattering the air.
Because of their spread-out formation, Leo Ray, boosted by Little Jie, along with the formidable pink-hooded allies, summoned either an Absolute Defense Barrier or a space shield in time, dodging major harm from the foe's opening assault.
On the other hand, Frank, Old Gary, and Yoyo fought desperately to hold on.
Confronting the onslaught of acidic spheres like a savage gale, with nowhere to dodge, their protective shields crumbled swiftly one by one, hurling them backward.
Even worse, the demon gave no pause, unleashing fresh acidic spheres in a furious roar, endless and overpowering!
At this sight, be it the pink-hooded figures or Frank and the rest scrambling to their feet, despair etched across every face.
All had seen the devastation those acidic spheres wrought; with shields broken, nobody could survive a follow-up blow from the demon!
Just as the next torrent of spheres bore down on the exposed Frank and companions, a resolute silhouette bearing three amulets dashed in first. A dazzling golden Absolute Defense Barrier expanded, shielding them all.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
One by one, the acidic spheres burst against the barrier's surface. Inside the shield, the earth still quaked violently.
Frank, Old Gary, and Yoyo gazed at the solid form standing guard before them; it was undoubtedly Leo Ray.
"Thank you, Your Majesty of the Humans, for saving us!"
Shaking from lingering terror, Old Gary leaned on his sword to rise, intent on bowing to Leo Ray, only to be halted by him.
"Old Chief, didn't you help me out just a while ago in the underground space?"
Leo Ray steadied him, then turned to lift the still-weeping Frank and Yoyo, grinning as he said: "You all have given me a hand at critical moments, how could I stand idly by now?"
Once done speaking, Leo Ray's eyes shifted to the Absolute Defense Barrier upheld by Little Jie.
The strikes kept pounding without mercy, endless black spheres whistling over, causing the barrier to erupt in globs of dark ooze that hissed corrosively.
As the golden magical glow on the barrier faded bit by bit, Leo Ray's forehead creased deeply.
Following his orders, Sheila now poured all her support into Little Jie, pushing him toward half-step Tier 7. Add the surge from activating his power, and despite both, they held no edge.
Realizing the enemy's strength appeared boundless, if things dragged on like this, their end would come soon enough.
