Chapter 409

They are safe!

The battle ended quickly!

A demigod crushes a Tier 9 professional—total domination in seconds.

"What's the situation over there?"

The Barbarian God stepped before Wang Zhilin and patted his arm. "Luo Chenyu—how is he?"

Wang Zhilin did not hesitate and told the Barbarian God everything that had happened before he left.

"Barbarian God, Commander, please protect Brother Xiaoyu—he's a good kid!"

The Barbarian God: "…"

Damn!

He knew Wang Zhilin's nature—unbendable, impossible to reason with—and yet now he was standing up for Luo Chenyu.

Is Luo Chenyu really that charismatic?

"Don't worry—we'll bring him back!"

"You all return home safely. If you want to see Brother Luo first, wait in Donghai City!"

Wang Zhilin: "…"

Brother Luo?

Luo Chenyu really can call anyone brother!

………………

"Fuck!!"

Luo Chenyu never expected he'd become the focal point of battle!

All offense and defense revolved around him.

The ten cumulative uses of the 【Evil God·Soul Devouring Chain】's bonus skill were already spent, with no way to replenish them, and they had failed to produce their intended effect.

"You filthy rats—dare you use forbidden arts!!"

Control—endless control!

Most of it was immune, but many still took effect—disarm, weakness, and so on…

It drove him insane.

His melee attacks were useless, and while the 【Steel Shield】's impact damage was decent, their healing quickly restored it.

Most importantly, this was his first time in a battle of this scale—he didn't know how to coordinate.

No experience.

Damage was capped; he could only rely on the basic 【Steel Shield】 explosion for negligible damage.

And… control.

With trillions of shield value but no output environment—he was suffocating.

"Stop pushing me, you bastards!!"

……

Zhang Yue and the others fiercely protected Luo Chenyu, trying to minimize the damage he took.

But…

The current battle situation remained even.

The two demigods who arrived later from the 【Palace of Gods】 were extremely strong—they forcibly leveled the power gap.

Even with Luo Chenyu's shield, their fight remained difficult.

Among demigods, outright killing one is truly hard.

Every demigod was a prodigy of their age.

"Brother Xiaoyu, how long until your hard control?"

Zhang Yue sent a mental message, asking about Luo Chenyu's status.

Hard control meant 【Barbaric Charge】—it caused stun and paralysis, even demigods couldn't resist.

"Eight seconds!"

Luo Chenyu replied briefly—he could no longer hold back; the upgraded "Big Boy" was ready.

"Attack that priest! My ultimate is off cooldown—let's burst it down together!"

Luo Chenyu's eyes lit up.

That priest was truly the most nauseating—massive healing!

And that forbidden purification—annoying beyond endurance.

"Got it!!"

Hearing this, Luo Chenyu knew exactly what to do.

His other divine artifact skill, 【Pillar of Heaven】, was fully charged!

Finally…

Under the protection of the other demigods, 【Barbaric Charge】's cooldown ended!

Luo Chenyu did not immediately lock onto the demigod priest—he used 【Steel Shield】 to divert the 【Palace of Gods】 rats' attention.

The 【Palace of Gods】 rats were drawn in by Luo Chenyu's move.

They knew his skills well and were always on guard—but his skill activation was simply too fast.

Too fast for them to react.

Taunt triggered—the three 【Palace of Gods】 rats with the highest attack were instantly taunted.

Seeing this, the priest instinctively began casting purification.

"Now!"

Luo Chenyu's heart leaped with joy, and without hesitation he unleashed three stages of 【Savage Charge】!!

Lightning power blazed.

··· 0 begging for flowers ··· 0

Boom!!

The Priest was stunned in an instant!

The very instant Luo Chenyu moved, Zhang Yue and the other demigods also began to move!

Burst skills focused-fired the Priest.

Zhang Yue in particular appeared behind 【Temple of Gods】 in the blink of an eye, his burst skill directly shattering space, endless might condensing, dealing massive damage.

"Not good!"

The demigods of 【Temple of Gods】 cried out in alarm, but it was too late to stop it—everything happened too fast. They could only attack frantically, trying to rescue the Priest.

One must know…

The Priest was the most crucial link among them; without him, they could not defend against Luo Chenyu's unreasonable crowd control.

At this moment.

A massive surge of energy erupted once more.

Under absolute damage, every last-ditch survival was an illusion—one pierce and it shattered.

Boom!!

The low-HP 【Temple of Gods】 Priest was directly torn apart by the violent energy.

"Ding, you have slain a demigod professional, absorbing the target's soul power. Your Soul Origin Heart's progress for this stage is complete!!"

"Ding, your Soul Origin Heart has entered an evolution state!!"

"Ding, …"

"…"

Prompt after prompt appeared. Luo Chenyu's spirit jolted, and his entire body felt lighter.

So much slaughter.

At last, his Soul Origin Heart's progress bar was filled.

If not for the terrifying soul power of demigods, completing such a feat in such a short time would have been utterly impossible.

Favorable timing, terrain, and unity of allies—not one could be lacking.

"Kill!!"

With the 【Temple of Gods】 Priest dead, the great stone in Zhang Yue and the others' hearts finally fell, and they could begin to counterattack.
