Chapter 535: Massive Consumption

Li Na was casting healing magic on the side, treating the injured Exorcists. Her face was full of worry, but her hands were very steady; magical light flickered at her fingertips, bringing a trace of warmth to this cruel battle.

However, the number of demons was truly too great, and their attacks were becoming increasingly frantic. Li An was gradually feeling somewhat strained in the fight; his spiritual power was being consumed massively, and sweat slid continuously down his cheeks. But he did not retreat; instead, he observed the demons' movements with even greater focus.

Suddenly, Li An's eyes lit up; he had discovered the pattern in the demons' movements. These demons seemed to be obeying some commander hidden in the shadows; their attack rhythm and direction held a subtle connection.

"So that's how it is, you are being controlled by someone," Li An thought silently to himself. His gaze became even sharper as he began searching the surrounding environment for that hidden enemy.

After a careful observation, Li An finally spotted a figure hidden in the shadows. It was a person clad in a black robe; his face was obscured by a hood, making his expression unreadable, but Li An could sense the evil aura emanating from him—he was a member of the Noah Clan.

"Found him!" Li An glared at that enemy, his heart filled with rage. His fists clenched tightly, and his spiritual power surged violently within his body, like a volcano about to erupt.

The Exorcists around noticed Li An's unusual state and gathered around him. Shen Shen Tianyou held a sharp blade, asking coldly, "What's wrong?"

Li An pointed at that figure hidden in the shadows and shouted loudly, "Look, that is the one commanding these demons; he is a member of the Noah Clan!"

Hearing this, everyone showed expressions of shock; their eyes were filled with vigilance and anger. The atmosphere instantly became tense and serious, like a tightly strung string ready to snap at any moment.

"We can't let him escape!" Allen Walker charged out first, his speed extremely fast, like a nimble leopard.

Li An quickly followed, shouting to the Exorcists around as he ran, "Everyone listen, let's surround him together; we cannot give him any chance to escape!"

The Exorcists nodded in agreement; they quickly dispersed, approaching that Noah Clan member from all directions. That Noah Clan member seemed to sense the danger; his body trembled slightly as he tried to flee, only to find himself already surrounded.

"Hmph, you think catching me will be easy?" He snorted coldly and suddenly threw a cloud of black smoke from his hand. The smoke quickly spread, enveloping his figure within it.

"No good, he's trying to run!" Li An's heart tightened; he immediately activated his system, analyzing the smoke's composition and the direction the enemy might flee.

"Everyone, don't panic; he won't get away!" Allen Walker shouted loudly, waving the weapon in his hand as he charged into the smoke.

Just then, a glint of light flashed in Li An's eyes; he had thought of a plan. He quickly exchanged a glance with Allen Walker; the two understood each other without words and began to execute their plan.

Li An condensed powerful spiritual power and fired a mighty shockwave toward the center of the smoke. The shockwave exploded within the smoke, producing a loud boom. That Noah Clan member was shaken by this sudden attack, left somewhat at a loss, and his body involuntarily exposed itself outside the smoke.
