Chapter 971

Wang Xiang Zhi Wang, Chapter Nine Hundred Seventy-Nine: Heroes Battle the Demon. As Li Luo, Qin Yi, Zhu Zhu Dayu, and the others began to fight fiercely against the endless stream of Polluters, the battle in midair grew even more intense and perilous.

Led by the three Eight-Star Tian Zhu Jing experts—Li Li Lingjing, Qin Ying, and Zhu Zhu—everyone present pushed their own phase force to the limit. Brilliant Tian Zhu shone like stars, drawing in the energy of heaven and earth to reinforce themselves.

From the foul-smelling Heihe, giant arms formed from piled-up pallid limbs kept drilling out. From the palms of those arms, eerie fangs and sharp teeth dripped with black water, spitting out streaks of black light that swept toward Li Li Lingjing and the others.

These black light rays were terrifyingly powerful, forcing everyone into a sorry state, because the black light rays seemed almost alive, writhing and twisting like black worms.

In the brief clash earlier, one Five-Star Tian Zhu Jing expert had his phase force defense pierced by the black light rays. The black light rays then landed on his body and burrowed into his flesh and blood in an instant. Within just a few breaths, the man let out a shrill scream as countless black worms drilled out from within his body, devouring his flesh, blood, and bones from the inside out.

Not even a bone remained.

Everyone broke out in a cold sweat, so they hastily took out all manner of close-defense treasures and defensive phase arts, not daring to let those black light rays touch their bodies.

Li Li Lingjing hovered in the air, eight Tian Zhu revealed behind her. At this moment, she held the "Green Bamboo Green Snake Staff" in her hand, and a ring of green light emerged on the shaft of the staff, encircling her entire body.

The ring of light carried a faint, elegant fragrance. It smelled pleasant, but was in fact terrifying, because this was a ring of light imbued with poisonous gas.

Any foreign object that approached Li Li Lingjing's body was dissolved by this poisonous gas ring.

This was the protective power of the "Green Bamboo Green Snake Staff"—this alone was enough to reveal how extraordinary this item was.

Moreover, every time Li Li Lingjing pushed her phase force and swung her staff to meet the incoming black light rays, green light flowed across the shaft of the staff, a giant green python coiled around the shaft, and then struck down heavily.

With one strike of the staff, even the void showed faint signs of cracking. The force of that single blow was likely enough to blast a mountaintop into pieces.

Boom!

Li Li Lingjing swung the staff-light and smashed apart one of the incoming black light rays. As the black light rays shattered, invisible eerie worms tried to erode toward the human body, but the "Green Bamboo Green Snake Staff" activated its poisonous gas at this moment, dissolving all of these imperceptible worms completely.

"Truly a handy, fine treasure." Such a thought flashed through Li Li Lingjing's mind. Without the assistance of the "Green Bamboo Green Snake Staff," she would have had to rely on her own phase force to constantly guard against the invasion of these black worms, which would undoubtedly distract her.

At present, everyone was being forced into an utterly sorry state by the attacks from the Erosion Spirit True Demon, and only Li Li Lingjing's side could be considered temporarily safe.

However, Li Li Lingjing understood that this was only temporary.

Because others might not be able to sense it, but she could detect that within the pervasive black fog, there was a cold, sinister gaze locked onto her the entire time.

That gaze made Li Li Lingjing feel as if thorns were pressing against her back.

"Everyone, stop holding back—we must shatter the Heihe as quickly as possible!" At this moment, Qin Ying let out a great shout, because as time went on, more and more eerie palms were growing out of the Heihe. Under such an offensive, they too were finding themselves in constant danger.

The instant his voice fell, Qin Ying struck first. One saw piercing golden-light phase force surge skyward, transforming above him into dozens of golden feathers. The feathers, like sword-light, stabbed at the eyes.

Marquis-rank Art, Golden Feather Sword Art!

Qin Ying let out a long howl. The dozens of golden feathers were like giant golden swords piercing through heaven and earth. As the giant swords chopped down, the golden light directly sliced apart several pallid giant hands and slashed straight toward the Heihe.

Zhu Zhu's attack followed closely. One saw her wielding a giant hammer. As the giant hammer swung, a light-shadow as massive as a mountain roared forth, transforming into a crimson mountain. The mountain was incomparably heavy, and when it appeared, even the void trembled because of it.

The crimson mountain reinforced Zhu Zhu's giant hammer. She let out a low growl, the veins on her thick arms bulging, and then brought the hammer smashing down.

Boom boom!

Piercing sonic booms rang out across the sky, and an extremely terrifying gust of wind roared forth.

Marquis-rank Art, Mountain-Shifting Force!

Li Li Lingjing likewise lent her aid at this moment. A giant Black Serpent light-shadow appeared behind her, then transformed into black light that poured into the Green Bamboo Green Snake Staff in her hand. One saw the green python shoot forth violently, while its serpent body underwent a change—the originally green snake scales actually manifested black light, and its size suddenly swelled in the wind like an inky-green flood dragon.

The inky-green giant python transformed into a rainbow of light, brutally smashing apart several black light rays, and then bombarded the Heihe.

She did not employ a Marquis-rank Art, but this attack, whether in energy intensity or momentum, surpassed both Qin Ying and Zhu Zhu.

Clearly, with this "Green Bamboo Green Snake Staff" in hand, Li Li Lingjing's combat power skyrocketed. Even when facing a Nine-Star Tian Zhu Jing strong enemy, she was in no way inferior.

The other figures hovering in the air also took this moment to unleash their strongest attacks all at once. Immediately, energy surged across the sky, and a dazzling array of powerful Marquis-rank Arts pierced the horizon, bombarding the Heihe.

Facing the combined assault of the crowd, the many giant limbs drilling out of the Heihe shattered one after another. Within the Heihe, towering waves rose up, constantly being dissolved.

In just a short while, the Heihe shattered into several segments, writhing like severed snakes.

Outside the Zhudian, the people currently fighting fiercely against the Polluters were greatly encouraged by the sight.
