Chapter 395 Seraph Is Coming! Purify Everything!
Chapter 395 Seraph Is Coming! Purify Everything!
"Is that it? Dead already?"
Chen Yu was slightly stunned.
For forbidden powerhouses, the heart is not a weak point.
But in this situation, it seemed certain that Heralthagus would die.
"Weak humans."
Abyss Lord held the heart in his hand and tossed it lightly.
"I still prefer the heart of an angel, the kind that makes my body burn with pain."
"Pfft—"
Heralthagus spewed out a mouthful of blood, looking even more dejected.
However, his expression did not change in the slightest, remaining cold and resolute.
"Filthy demon!" Heralthagus weakly shouted.
Air gathered in his bleeding lungs, his vocal cords trembling with difficulty, emitting a whistling sound like a broken bellows.
"You will face the judgment of the gods!"
"Perhaps. Unfortunately, you won't live to see that day." Abyss Lord sneered, crushing the heart in his hand.
"Bang—"
There was no scene of blood splattering.
The shattered heart suddenly erupted with an incredibly powerful holy energy, enveloping Abyss Lord, who was almost within arm's reach, as well as the four demon lords not far away.
At this moment, Heralthagus' body suddenly began to dissipate, transforming into pure holy power.
Above the holy city, a cold and solemn voice echoed.
"With my body and soul as a sacrifice—"
"The sublime lord who is unsurpassable—"
"Cast your loving gaze upon us—"
"Holy imprisonment!"
The intense holy light instantly transformed into a sturdy cage, imprisoning the five demons.
"Damn it!"
Abyss Lord's expression changed drastically.
Wave after wave of immense Abyss power struck the cage of holy light.
The cage of holy light remained unmoved.
A cage formed by sacrificing everything, meticulously prepared by a Rank Eight powerhouse, was not so easily broken.
Just then, Heralthagus' voice sounded again.
"Pious lambs, do not mourn my passing. Raise your weapons and defeat the filthy demons, welcoming the glory of the gods!"
The sound of sighs, like lamentations, echoed ceaselessly in the ruined holy city.
"Lord Penitent!"
Knight Commander Daliah cried out in sorrow, her attacks becoming even more fierce.
The remaining holy practitioners in the holy city were also inspired by Heralthagus' sacrifice, their morale soaring amidst their grief.
"What is this? The villain dies from talking too much?"
Chen Yu's expression was strange as he looked at the angel statue above.
If Abyss Lord hadn't wasted so much time talking and had instead unleashed all his firepower to crush Heralthagus without giving him time to prepare his skills, it wouldn't have come to this.
A golden boss being killed by a bronze boss, isn't that purely a joke?
"Wait, something's not right."
Chen Yu suddenly realized that although Abyss Lord in the cage of holy light appeared to be raging helplessly,
he hadn't actually used his full strength.
The force of his attacks on the cage was only slightly stronger than the four demon lords.
Chen Yu was well aware of the difference between a golden boss and a bronze boss, it could be described as night and day.
If Abyss Lord went all out, it should have been able to break the cage of holy light within half an hour.
But with its current strength, it might not succeed even in half a day.
Chen Yu couldn't help but think of a joke from his past life playing games.
"I'm waiting for my skill, what are you waiting for?"
What is this Abyss Lord waiting for?
Normally, shouldn't it be trying its best to break the cage and attack the little Saintess to prevent the ritual from succeeding?
"What are these two planning?"
Chen Yu had to activate his brain again and think about the Abyss Lord's purpose.
Although demons are chaotic and crazy, this Abyss Lord is obviously intelligent and acts logically.
The ritual of the little Saintess is about to begin, and the gods are about to descend.
But it didn't launch a full attack, instead staying on the outskirts.
This is not a game mechanism where all the small monsters have to be killed before the boss appears.
After finally attacking Heralthagus, it started showing off again, giving Heralthagus a chance to fight back.
Now, it's just idling inside the Holy Light Prison, seemingly not in a hurry at all.
"Something is wrong, very wrong."
"Villains die from talking too much, isn't this a standard plot twist?"
"Wait, the plot?"
"The behavior of these two seems so much like they're acting out a scene together."
"Let's see how it develops."
Chen Yu was frustrated. He had been having too much fun with the little Saintess these past few days and hadn't paid attention to the situation, so now he couldn't analyze anything useful.
He could only be vigilant in his heart and suppress the urge to take action immediately.
Time passed little by little.
No matter what secret the higher-ups had between them, the lower levels would not know.
The entire holy city had been almost completely slaughtered by the swarming demons and fallen ones.
Only a few holy practitioners could survive by relying on the Plant Life Heart.
Out of caution, Chen Yu didn't let anyone enter the cathedral or approach the angel statue. He even cleared out the people who were already hiding inside.
The Gate of Heaven in the sky was opening faster and faster.
The majestic gods behind the gate seemed ready to emerge.
The power of holiness became even stronger.
Without the protection of the Abyss Lord, all the fallen ones were burned to ashes by the endless holy light.
Only demons of Rank Six and above were still struggling to hold on.
Finally, at a certain moment.
The golden gate opened completely, transforming from an illusion into reality.
The divine sound coming from behind the gate became even more resounding.
The Abyss that was invading the world retreated under the inexplicable power of holiness.
The entire Abyss-infested area of the world was directly purified.
From within the gate, a huge humanoid shadow slowly stepped forward.
It was hundreds of meters tall, with twelve wings on its back, and its waist and chest were wrapped in soft white ribbons.
At this moment, the holy light on the ground extinguished, and the clouds in the sky dispersed.
That majestic figure seemed to become the only existence between heaven and earth.
"We've won! We've won!"
"My lord! You have finally cast your gaze upon us!"
"Oh great divine being, cleanse this world of its impurities!"
The remaining believers knelt down and prayed, tears streaming down their faces.
The fallen ones and demons scattered in panic, but they couldn't escape this world. Their fate was only purification.
"The superior god! Not weaker than the Great Xia Flamebearer we saw last time!"
Chen Yu finally felt the true strength of the Archangel Lucifer.
In the sky, the giant angel lowered its head and reached out its arm towards the little Saintess.
A transparent passage was established between the little Saintess and the angel.
Something indescribable flowed from the giant angel's hand into the little Saintess's body.
