Chapter 137: Engaging Azi Dahaka, Do You Understand What a Battlefield Is?

Watching the crowd eagerly participate after receiving his guarantee, Su Nian couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, even though he had mentally prepared himself.

Were they really that afraid of death? Of course, it might also be because they were tricked so miserably by Canary back then.

At the very least, after receiving Su Nian's guarantee, they had a certain sense of security in their hearts.

Forget it, as long as there are people willing to provide support, it's much better than fighting alone, right?

Moreover, it seemed that after seeing someone willing to step forward, more and more heroes were willing to stand up and oppose Azi Dahaka.

"Shala Terudoreku, representing the Dragon Horned Griffin to enter the battle."

A girl with a proud figure, wearing a sexy outfit resembling a swimsuit, and possessing bronze-colored skin, stepped forward.

"As a Layer Master, I cannot watch the three-headed dragon that was sealed by our elders in the past come out to cause chaos again."

Shala broke free from the claws of the giant cat-man in a suit who was about to hold her down, spread her crimson dragon wings, and stood out to speak.

"Old man, let me take the lead."

The cat-man sighed helplessly, but still stepped aside; he knew he couldn't stop Shala's intentions.

Garuoro Genrodo, the founder and first leader of the Dragon Horned Griffin Alliance, was also an old man who had fought alongside Canary against Azi Dahaka many times in the past.

He was one of the few who hadn't been sacrificed by Canary and had survived to this day, though he had quite a few hidden injuries on his body; otherwise, he wouldn't have handed the position of leader to Shala, who had only just joined the Dragon Horned Griffin.

"Forget it, this old man has been nursing his injuries for over two hundred years; I hope this kid has half the ability of Canary."

Garuoro stretched his body like a cat, then crouched on the ground. In the blink of an eye, his clothes were burst open, and in his place was a giant cat, six or seven meters tall, ready to strike.

Of course, the people responding to the call were not just these; there were many heroes whose names Su Nian couldn't even call out, and who hadn't even appeared in the original work.

At this moment, it actually had quite a bit of the style of the original Arcadia Alliance.

Su Nian felt some emotion about this, but the pressure on him was also quite heavy; he had to focus his full attention on the overall situation, constantly coordinating their movements, and also guarding against Azi Dahaka releasing the Simulated Star Creation Map.

This was Su Nian's first time doing something like this, and he didn't know if he could command them well, but the one thing he could be glad about now was that, at least, they were all quite cooperative.

Could this also be considered one of the legacies Canary left for him?

"Are you ready? If you are ready, then my trial shall officially begin!"

Azi Dahaka stood high in the sky, coldly looking down at the crowd gathered below, as well as Su Nian, who was watching the battlefield from the side, preparing to act as a commander and perform micro-management.

He also revealed a smile of anticipation, looking forward to Su Nian truly surpassing him, surpassing the Absolute Evil, and leading humanity toward a better future.

Looking forward to Su Nian stepping on his corpse and dedicating victory to the justice that is bound to win!

He was merely a trial, so he would not strike at any hero preparing to overcome the trial; this was his pride.

"Of course not... ready!!!!"

Su Nian smiled confidently as he looked at Azi Dahaka, while his peripheral vision glanced toward a tall figure with bull horns on his head, waving an Iron Rod inside a cave.

That was the Bull Demon King, who was currently building up power. In fact, the Bull Demon King had been building up power since the moment Azi Dahaka broke the seal, preparing to give Azi Dahaka a strike with his rod.

The Bull Demon King, after Sun Wukong became a Buddha, succeeded Sun Wukong as the leader of the Seven Great Sages, a well-known Four-Digit Exceptional Yokai.

Even among the Four-Digit Exceptional, he was one of the best, aside from those who stubbornly clung to the Four-Digit realm or the God Kings who had undergone Descent to Human.

Even Yang Erlang might not necessarily be able to gain any advantage in the hands of the Bull Demon King.

Moreover, in the original work, the Bull Demon King even found Canary before the Halloween Queen did, becoming the financier and gatekeeper of the orphanage where Canary and Izayoi Sakamaki resided.

He was also one of the few allies Su Nian could absolutely trust right now.

The Bull Demon King's Spirit Status development direction was weapon manipulation, as well as the control and superposition of force; as he swung the Iron Rod in his hand in circles, he accumulated power in the rod in the form of potential energy.

Accumulated to the end, it could even surpass the limit of the Four-Digit Exceptional, exerting a strike comparable to a Three-digit one.

And when the potential energy on his Iron Rod was accumulated to the limit, that was when he would swing that strike!

And now, the potential energy on the Iron Rod had accumulated to the limit; any more, and it would be beyond what the Bull Demon King could control.

"Then..."

Azi Dahaka tilted his head and looked at Su Nian; he was not in a hurry, deciding to continue waiting to see what other tricks Su Nian could pull off.

"Eat a strike from your Bull Grandpa!!"

Before his words could even be finished, an Iron Rod, gathering infinite potential energy and capable of shattering stars, or even dwarf stars, descended from the sky!

It struck Azi Dahaka on the back, directly knocking him from the high sky down into the depths of the earth.

It smashed out a large crater, and the diffusing smoke and the heat brought about by his fall even formed a mushroom cloud.

This strike, the power gathered on the Iron Rod, was likely at the Three-digit level, right?

Because this force was superimposed; each strike was at the Four-Digit Exceptional level and did not exceed the limit of the lower layers, but superimposing them was outrageous.

Even in the upper layers, Three-digit God Kings would not necessarily fare any better when facing this strike head-on.

One can only say, is he worthy of being one of the top Yokai even in the Chinese Mythology, where monsters frequently appear?

It's just that the Bull Demon King was, after all, a Yokai, not a human; although his attack was powerful, when facing Humanity's Final Trial, he could not cause him too much damage.

All he could do was knock Azi Dahaka down from the sky.

But that was enough!!

The bright moonlight replaced the sun in the sky at some unknown time, and in the moonlight where there was no other light, it was absolute.

An arrow, hidden in the dark night and shimmering with traces of moonlight, shot toward the high sky at some unknown time.

Was the direction off? Perhaps it was off! It should have been aimed at Azi Dahaka, right?

But don't forget that Su Nian could wantonly manipulate space; direction and distance had never been important.

As long as that arrow was shot, it would inevitably hit the target.

Space Authority is just that shameless.

"This arrow severs your wings!"

Just as Azi Dahaka was about to get up from the large crater he had been smashed into, an arrow shot past the root of his wings at some unknown time, directly severing his right wing.

And as for the other wing, the old man Garuoro would not let this opportunity slip by.

Just like a cat that finds it interesting to see a small bat, Garuoro lunged directly at Azi Dahaka's teeth, using his claws to bite off his other wing.

Then Jialuoluo was teleported away by Su Nian; a moment later, the claws of Azi Dahaka would instantly pierce through Jialuoluo's throat and heart.

For a time, after seeing how reliable Su Nian was, the other gods and heroes also relaxed quite a bit.

Countless attacks from all directions, under Su Nian's coordination, struck Azi Dahaka's body with precision.

As for those focused on melee combat, such as Heracles, they began guerrilla tactics under Su Nian's control, the main strategy being to strike once and then retreat.

Not a single one of the gods and heroes had been injured yet, while Azi Dahaka was already covered in wounds.

It was just that although their attacks were grand in scale and naturally not weak in power, they were not very effective when facing Azi Dahaka.

As Humanity's Final Trial, and possessing the ability to replicate the opponent's Spirit Status, Gifts, and worldviews to stack upon himself and negate others' attacks, Azi Dahaka's damage reduction was simply outrageous.

It would not be an exaggeration to say the damage reduction was ninety-nine percent.

But as long as it wasn't one hundred percent, having any effect was the greatest encouragement.

Moreover, it was actually better this way; Su Nian was also worried about what would happen if he accidentally sent Azi Dahaka off to respawn.

The one that would be resurrected would not be in the current weakened state, but the Demon King in his prime, whom even the Twelve Heavenly Generals could not contend with.

Such a hard life; not only did he have to keep an eye on the gods and heroes, but he also had to constantly worry about Azi Dahaka's health.

The battle had only started a few minutes ago, and Su Nian already felt as if his head were about to explode.

As expected, the job of a commander is not something a human can do.

However, Azi Dahaka also realized that if he didn't get rid of Su Nian first, he would probably be annoyed like this forever.

The Space Boundary Ability is still a bit too foul!

Of course, Su Nian and Jialing were no pushovers either, especially Jialing, whose speed became astonishingly fast after recovering her true form.

Coupled with the fire support of the Sun Wheel Golden Wing Flame, even though Azi Dahaka's damage reduction was outrageous, it did not stop Su Nian from relying on firepower to push Azi Dakaha back.

Without wings, it was not that easy for Azi Dahaka to fly, given a body weight comparable to a continent.

And Azi Dahaka clearly realized this problem as well; countless amounts of blood flowed from his back and the injured areas of his wings.

It transformed into individual two-headed dragon clones, sharing his weight and reducing his mass, but his Spirit Status and his strength did not decrease in the slightest.

However, a reduction in body weight meant that Azi Dahaka was easier to knock back, and his power was also somewhat reduced.

And this was the moment for Kalki to enter the fray.

"I choose you! Kalki!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Su Nian kicked Kalki right in front of Azi Dahaka, knocking him to the ground just as he was about to charge into the sky.
