Lord of the Magical Beasts

Chapter 592: Abyssal Demon Team

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Those were Five Abyssal Demons clad in heavy armor, and they held giant sickles. They emitted a berserk and shocking murderous aura!

A single Abyssal Demon was so terrifying, and if five demons joined hands, it would be worse.

The crowd turned around to escape without the least bit of hesitation, and their speed was higher than their departure speed by many folds. They were frightened, and this was why they ran at a shocking speed. They released their whole bodies’ power!

“Hurry up and run, hurry up!”

“Damn it! Why did we run into those guys? We still ran into five of them at once.”

...

The crowd led by the Sword God ran quickly and recklessly. They wished to distance themselves from this place far away. If they ran into a single Abyssal Demon, it was still manageable, but those were five demons, and even if they fought them together, they still wouldn’t be a match for them. They would surely die if they were overtaken by them!

The Abyssal Demons’ deafening roars and angry shouts transmitted from the rear before the crowd ran far away, and they were all terrified by them. The limbs of a Golden Cloak Warrior with Sacred-Level’s power turned ice-cold due to his fright, and he stepped on a smooth stone by mistake. As a thumping noise echoed out, he fell heavily on the ground, and he rolled toward a cliff in the vicinity.

“Hehehe, little fellow, you can’t even walk down the road. Did you forget to have a meal at noon, or were you too wanton last night?” The Corpse Wizard King was sharp-sighted and deft. He strode forward suddenly, and he saved the guy that was about to fall off the cliff.

“Sir, thank you.” The face of the rescued Golden Cloak Warrior was flushed.

Even though the guy had just Sacred-Level’s power, he still practiced for around five thousand years, and he just wasn’t able to make a breakthrough into the Domain-Level. He didn’t expect that he was just a little fellow in the Corpse Wizard King’s eyes.

“Go, go, go! Pachulia, hurry up and run!” The guy that almost fell down the cliff was still panicky and stood motionless. This was why the warrior behind him patted his shoulder as he ran past him, and he urged him to follow them quickly.

...

The crowd was quite swift, and they quickly went back. They streaked across the lush forest!

“Well?” After they ran for a short distance, Yang Ling, who was in charge of bringing up the rear, let out a cry and stopped in confusion.

The angry shouts of the Abyssal Demons behind them turned louder, but they still didn’t chase after them. What was strange was that there weren’t just Abyssal Demons’ roars, and he could still hear faint miserable screams as well as fighting noises. In addition, the breeze brought with it a faint smell of blood.

“Could it be that the five demons ran into their enemies?” Yang Ling got an idea, and he quickly sat down cross-legged. He ordered a group of swift flying Horned Bee Beasts to scout out the situation. A while ago, they just saw five large bodies of demons, and none knew the concrete situation because there was a large distance between them.

“Form a formation and protect the lord.”

The Corpse Wizard King responded quickly, and he asked the Dark Dragon King, Hydra, and others to form a tight circular protective formation quickly. They protected tightly Yang Ling that sat cross-legged on the ground, and they observed the vicinity’s situation vigilantly.

They didn’t know why Yang Ling stopped suddenly, but they still didn’t forget that this was the dangerous Graveyard of Gods and Devils, and this was why they didn’t dare to take anything carelessly.

“What is the matter? Let’s go, let’s go quickly.”

“Oh my God, why did you stop?”

...

The group of Yang Ling that brought up the rear came to a sudden stop, and when the crowd saw this, they were startled, and they couldn’t discern what he planned. The Chief Elven Priestess and the Sword God exchanged a glance before they went to pacify their clansmen. They also stopped quickly!

According to their contact with Yang Ling for the last period and their understanding of him, they understood that he wasn’t a careless person. On the contrary, he was much more pragmatic than the average person, and he had keen senses. He usually had a unique view of many matters, and he wouldn’t stop suddenly without a special reason.

Swoosh!

The Horned Bee Beasts were swift, and they quickly transmitted back to Yang Ling the info he needed. It was really like he expected. The few Abyssal Demons ran into a group of enemies, and an intense battle occurred. The Abyssal Demons couldn’t give any regard to their group.

“Are they Alien Planes’ experts in exploration within the Graveyard of Gods and Devils, or are they experts living in seclusion in the Graveyard of Gods and Devils?” After Yang Ling got a rough idea about this thanks to the Horned Bee Beasts, he muttered to himself irresolutely. He couldn’t discern the identity of that group of people in a short while!

There were many people fighting against the Abyssal Demons. There were archers in leather armor, as well as spellcasters holding Magic Staffs, and the number of their people reached fifteen. They fought separately against the few Abyssal Demons, and they were in a deadlock. The strongest among them was a husky man in scarlet armor that held a large scarlet sword, and he was unexpectedly able to fight evenly against the strongest Abyssal Demon alone.

He was an apex High-Level Deity! He possessed at least an apex High-Level Deity’s power!

Yang Ling quickly made a preliminary assessment of the husky man’s power, and he was quite astounded by this group’s power. The people able to fight evenly against five Abyssal Demons weren’t ordinary experts.

“Yang Ling, what is the matter?” The worried Chief Elven Priestess walked over. She wondered whether Yang Ling discovered a greater danger.

“It’s a good matter, it’s a really good matter.” Yang Ling stood up and spoke excitedly, “The five Abyssal Demons ran into a group of experts, and they fought evenly against them. They don’t have any energy left over to hunt down our group.”

The excited Yang Ling quickly explained the current situation to the others, and the crowd heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this news. The numerous warriors and elves with Sacred-Level or Domain-Level’s power were relieved by this.

“You should hide in the forest while I go to observe the situation carefully.” Yang Ling hesitated for a moment before he quickly made an astounding decision. He turned around and left with the Corpse Wizard King and others. He planned to sneak over to get an understanding of the situation!

One shouldn’t miss a fight between experts as one would manage to learn many matters by observing it at a close-distance, and one would still manage to understand further the Abyssal Demons’ strong traits and weaknesses. In addition, the Abyssal Demons possessed at least a High-Level Deity’s power, and if he attacked suddenly at a crucial juncture, he might probably manage to take advantage of their crisis and get their Godheads.

“You should hide in the vicinity and don’t go out without my permission.” The Sword God Gerald ordered his clansmen to hide before he left with Chief Elven Priestess. They followed Yang Ling’s group!

“Yang Ling, you should be careful later and don’t ever expose our tracks.”

“Priestess, you can be at ease. It’s still unknown whether those Abyssal Demons can even survive, and even if they discovered our tracks, they won’t manage to deal with us.”

...

The crowd was swift because they weren’t burdened any longer by the numerous Golden Cloak Warriors and Elves. After a short while, they sneaked back into the battlefield’s vicinity without a hitch, and they watched the battle quietly.

“Sir, I will reiterate it again, we are just a group of ordinary Wanderers, and we just passed by here. Don’t go too overboard because if worst comes to worst, we will just die together.” The husky man holding a large sword dodged an Abyssal Demon’s attack before he spoke as he retreated hurriedly.

“Hehe, wanderers?” After the Abyssal Demon repelled the husky man, he sneered coldly. “Our lord has passed down an order. None is allowed to approach the hundred thousand miles around the Moon River in this period, and anyone who has done so should be killed on the spot.”

The Abyssal Demon fighting against the husky man was a hundred-meter-tall giant and was quite sturdy. He also had a lifelike flame mark on his forehead, and it seemed like he was those few Abyssal Demons’ leader. He held a giant sickle, and he wore heavy armor with many symbols carved on it. His whole body emitted purple flames that soared into the sky, and he seemed more terrifying than the Abyssal Demon Barr met previously by Yang Ling’s group.

“Is it forbidden to approach the hundred thousand mile perimeter around the Moon River?”

What should be done?

Upon hearing what the Abyssal Demon Leader had said, the husky man’s body shivered. He knew already that the Abyssal Demon Lord wouldn’t look on without lifting a finger and wouldn’t allow the crowd to kill the Moon River’s Black-Horned Demon that would shortly wake up, but he still didn’t expect that he would dispatch a large number of Abyssal Demons to seal off all paths leading to the Moon River.

The husky man Richardson looked at the ferocious five Abyssal Demons, as well as his pale-faced companions, and he hesitated for a moment.

The Moon River’s Moon Stones contained a large amount of energy, and they were quite beneficial to practitioners. They were the Graveyard of Gods and Devils’ special product and couldn’t be easily bought in other Planes even for a large sum. The reason behind this was that Moon River was a natural stronghold that could be easily defended, and once the Black-Horned Demon that slept in the Moon River for innumerable years recovered his power, collecting the Moon Stones would be more difficult.

In addition, it was said that a large number of Ancient Gods and Devils’ Godheads and Divine Weapons were hidden in the Black-Horned Demon’s cave, and it also had innumerable treasures. It was rumored that all great factions and powerhouses training in seclusion had already rushed to Moon River, and they planned to kill the Black-Horned Demon that would shortly wake up. If they took advantage of this situation, then they might probably get the treasures inside the Black-Horned Demon’s cave.

There were ancient Gods and Devils’ Godheads and Divine Weapons, as well as Moon Stones, that couldn’t be bought easily even with a large sum. This was a large wealth!

The husky man Richardson wasn’t willing to give up, and he gnashed his teeth. But as he looked at his companions that accompanied him for innumerable years, he became quite worried. If he was by himself, he would manage to sneak over there even if he ran into more Abyssal Demons in the way, but he traveled with a group of people, and this was why this matter was more troublesome. He wouldn’t manage to make his way inside!

“Sir, fine, we will retreat.” After the husky man Richardson considered this matter, he decided that retreat would be the best way to advance forward. He should first get rid of this group of Abyssal Demons before giving consideration to anything else.

“Humph, do you want to retreat only now? It’s too late. Anyone who intruded into the hundred thousand miles perimeter around the Moon River would be killed.” The Abyssal Demon Leader snorted coldly and raised his giant sickle as he attacked again.

Swoosh!

After Richardson discerned that a great battle was unavoidable, he gritted his teeth and faced the enemy head-on. When he was about to hack the enemy’s head with his large sword, a surprising matter occurred.

The Abyssal Demon Leader that rushed at a high-speed snorted coldly and changed his path suddenly. As a swooshing sound echoed, he sped up again and pounced slyly at the sole archer with a Mid-Level Deity’s power behind Richardson. The heavy and sharp sickle streaked across the air, and as a cracking sound echoed out, it tore the archer that couldn’t dodge in time in half from his waist.
