Chapter 138 The First Wave of Reinforcements: Transcendent Combat Power

The city lord and Venerable Song were already on the verge of collapse, and his subordinates had suffered heavy casualties.

However, none of the students who were supposed to be sent by Shifang Academy actually arrived.

Were they wiped out over there? Or is the battle over there so intense that the Dean can't spare any more resources to send people over?

The city lord dared not die, nor did he dare give up. He had to hold on until the very last moment and watch his daughter being sent away with his own eyes.

Only then can he be without regrets and perish along with the Five Elements City.

Just when he felt he couldn't hold on any longer, he suddenly heard a mournful howl from the direction of Shifang Academy, belonging to the Purple Demon.

The mournful cry was filled with despair, but the city lord seemed to be on steroids.

Great! Very good! Excellent!

The fact that they have the Purple Demon Pill means that the Ten Directions Academy has temporarily gained the upper hand.

Regardless of how they defeated the Purple Demon, it at least proves that the Purple Demon is not invincible.

Just then, a tornado suddenly appeared overhead.

The next second, the wind dispersed, and six people fell from the sky: one, two, three, four, five, six!

Four of them were at the peak of the Heavenly Inquiry Realm, and two were at the middle stage of the Heavenly Inquiry Realm.

Although they weren't the powerful figures from the Sky Alliance at the Great Heaven Realm that the city lord had hoped for, it was impossible for them to arrive at the remote Five Elements City in such a short time.

The advantage is that six people at the Heavenly Realm have arrived, even though they are struggling to fight the Purple Demon.

However, if one or two of the six Heavenly Realm experts have rich combat experience, they can hold off the two Purple Demons for at least half an hour.

That way he can hold on for at least another 15 minutes. Hopefully, by then, Shifang Academy will be able to spare some time and send the Fire Seed students over.

That way he could see with his own eyes his daughter being transported to a safe place with them.

The city lord felt that Heaven still had eyes, at least it wouldn't let him die with his eyes open.

As Mina unleashed her tornado and approached the Five Elements City gate, she asked Xiaobai, "Commander, where are we going?"

"Head towards the place with the strongest smell of blood," Xiaobai instructed.

Logically, the support for Five Elements City should go to Ten Directions Academy, since the son and daughter are most likely to be there.

But as the commander, he knew that the place most in need of support was the place with the most dead.

Wind-elemental beings are most sensitive to smells, and Mina sensed it immediately. In the stench of blood that permeated the entire city, there was one place where the smell of blood was the strongest.

Without hesitation, she activated the tornado, sending it sweeping towards the area. Then, amidst the rising stench of blood, she retracted the tornado and released everyone.

Of the five, Xiao Ran was over a hundred years old, and his butler, Omar, was over two hundred years old; both were experienced old monsters.

Next are Xiaobai and Madam Xuan. Xiaobai is the commander who has been fighting against mutated beasts for many years.

Although Madam Xuan's combat strength is somewhat lacking, her age is a factor, and her experience is naturally not bad.

Mina and Matt are young and their cultivation has only just broken through to the Heavenly Realm, but they have followed Xiaobai in battle for many years and each has their own strengths.

Mina is a wind-type, known for her speed and strong ability to evade attacks.

Matt excels at mental attacks and is invincible among those of the same level.

All six of them possessed combat power beyond the realm. As soon as they appeared on the battlefield, Xiao Ran and Madam Xuan took over one of the Purple Demons, while Xiao Bai and Omar took over the other Purple Demon.

Mina and Matt went to help the guards of the city lord's mansion on the ground, who had already lost at least 70% of their men.

But no one ran away, because Five Elements City was their home, and the city lord was the person they swore allegiance to.

For both public and private reasons, they could only fight to the very last moment.

Even if you escape today, you will have nowhere to escape in the future.

Seeing their fierce battle, Mina and Matt were reminded of their past battles against the alien beasts.

Both were fighting to protect the home of humankind; even if they weren't powerful enough, they used their own flesh and blood to build a protective wall.

Mina unleashed a tornado, engulfing the most ferocious blue demons.

She can handle one-on-one situations, but against multiple opponents, she can only temporarily ensnare them and cannot inflict any real harm.

However, Matt and she worked well together, and when she gathered up a few blue demons, he used his Soul Drain skill on them.

The Soul-Stealing skill can cause enemies to lose their minds for a short period of time, and even make them attack their own people.

The blue demons in the tornado began attacking each other. Two of them had not used their invincibility cheats today, and their invincibility was automatically activated after being attacked.

The others attacked them relentlessly, quickly disabling their invincibility abilities.

With the strongest blue demons swept away, the city lord's guards, who had been struggling to hold on, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

They were prepared to die in battle, but if they could catch their breath, they could take the opportunity to absorb the green and blue demons they had killed.

Absorbing powerful energy on the battlefield can enhance their cultivation and even heal their wounds.

In this way, they can increase their combat power and kill more demons.

The high priest's mournful cry rang out, and the three purple demons immediately lost their will to fight, only wanting to escape the battle as soon as possible so they could rush to the rescue.

The High Priest is the backbone of the Demon Clan. Even if they could defeat the enemy in front of them if they held on a little longer, they would have no choice but to give up.

Xiao Bai and the others immediately realized Zi Mo's intention: they wanted to leave and go support Zi Mo in other places.

Xiao Bai immediately unleashed the "Snowflakes Falling Everywhere" skill, an area-of-effect attack. Although it couldn't severely damage the Purple Demons, it did force them to retreat.

If they wanted to leave regardless of everything, they would at least be left with countless tiny wounds.

For the Purple Demon, who possesses powerful self-healing abilities, such injuries may seem insignificant, but each snowflake contains a bone-chilling coldness of ice.

Once the cold enters the body, it is impossible to expel it quickly, thus preventing the wound from healing rapidly.

Fighting while injured will inevitably reduce one's combat effectiveness.

The only solution is to activate the defense function and temporarily halt our departure.

Xiao Ran specializes in metal-based magic. Even with Xiao Bai's obstruction, he didn't hesitate to wave his hand and unleash hundreds of golden spikes.

Omar instantly unleashed his most powerful soul attack. He was originally a mental type, and after arriving here, he awakened the Netherworld Spirit Root, making the cultivation of soul attack techniques a bonus.

Even though his cultivation level was not high enough, his soul power was strong enough that he could still inflict some damage on the Purple Demon by using his soul attack technique.

Lady Xuan then took the opportunity to release a dyeing spray, successfully dyeing all three purple demons.

The dye she used was made from the pollen of the flower of the demon plant king Lan Ruo's clone.

Pollen has a blue-gold fluorescence, making it extremely difficult to remove once it gets on you, and it will shine brightly day and night.

In this way, the gray mist that helps the Purple Demon become invisible will also become ineffective.

When fighting against him, there's no need to worry about the Purple Demon's unpredictable appearances.

All three purple demons desperately tried to escape. Two of them were trapped by Xiaobai and the others, while only the last one, which fought against the city lord, managed to escape.

After all, the city lord is too weak to keep him here.

The city lord was both ashamed and furious that even the Heavenly Realm expert could hold back the Purple Demon, yet he himself had failed to do so. Ignoring his own serious injuries, he vented his anger on the two Purple Demons he had left behind.

The strongest fighter in Five Elements City was no pushover; even though he was seriously injured, he still managed to severely injure a Purple Demon with a full-force attack in a fit of rage.

Of course, this is all predicated on the fact that the purple demon is glowing brightly, like a live target.

Adding to the woes, there was Xiao Bai's blizzard blocking her path from the front, Xiao Ran's golden thorns chasing from behind, and Omar's soul attack from the middle, which made Zi Mo mentally disoriented and his steps falter.

Seeing its companion severely injured, the remaining purple demon panicked.

Just then, he heard the shriek of the Purple Demon coming from afar.

This was the Purple Demon's dying scream, unlike the High Priest's desperate wail before; he was dead.

Once a member of the Fine Demon Clan dies, there is no concept of their soul entering the underworld for reincarnation, because their ancestral land is too far away, and their soul cannot return to the ancestral land, so it has already dissipated into the world.

This purple demon couldn't understand why a massacre that seemed certain to be a sure thing had turned out this way.

While he was stunned, Xiao Ran seized the opportunity and cleaved his slender waist in two with a single sword strike, leaving only a thin layer connecting them without completely severing them.

At this point, both trapped purple demons were seriously injured and could no longer pose a threat to the city lord's mansion.
