Chapter 104: Legendary Demon Hunter: Fierce Battle, Unexpected

Tangmu Huade, slightly stiff, lifted his head; his black pupils instantly contracted then dilated, his mouth gradually widened, and a harsh sound kept emanating from his throat.

Clearly, his understanding of the thing before him had already exceeded his imagination.

Even the demon‑hunter Ge Ruigeli's complexion couldn't help but take on a few shades of seriousness.

Under the church's illumination, the already massive Saiweike giant bear sorcerer let out a thunderous roar, rose instantly, his body continuously pulsating and swelling, becoming ever larger.

Squeak~!! Boom~!! Bang~!!

Boom~!!

The iron pillars of the cage imprisoning the giant bear sorcerer, under the pressure of Youla the Saiweike giant bear sorcerer's ever‑expanding massive form, twisted, deformed, and collapsed.

In an instant, before anyone could react, the seemingly solid steel cage shattered in a flash, carrying a powerful thrust and hurtling outward in all directions.

With a series of chaotic whooshing sounds filling the air.

Realizing the danger, Ge Ruigeli the demon‑hunter shouted urgently, "Get down quickly~!"

Whoosh~ whoosh~ whoosh~!!

Boom~ boom~!!

Smoke rose as sharp whines and successive massive booms rang out.

A twisted black steel rail, moving at astonishing speed, spun toward Tangmu Huade, striking.

Frightened, Tangmu Huade, hearing Master Ge Ruigeli's warning, felt a chill on his scalp as a strong gust rose.

A massive boom echoed from behind.

In that split second, Tangmu Huade, having timely dodged the lethal threat, looked back with lingering fear.

He saw that shattered steel rail, which had nearly taken his life moments ago, now deeply embedded in the church wall, continuously emitting a trembling hum.

Fine cracks spread outward from the wall, showing just how powerful the impact had been.

Bang~!! Bang~!!

Too shocked to voice his astonishment, Tangmu Huade felt the ground tremble and hurriedly looked toward the giant bear.

Wow, so big~!!

Youla the Saiweike giant bear sorcerer already possessed a four‑ to five‑meter massive frame.

At this moment, empowered by his innate bloodline, he instantly transformed into a colossal bear monster over eight meters tall, muscles rippling.

His bright red blood‑colored eyes stared fixedly at demon‑hunter Ge Ruigeli.

From his mouth, viscous, foul saliva dripped continuously from his sharp fangs, accompanied by a constant sizzle.

Looking around, the once‑solid ground bore strange corrosive marks.

At that moment, Tangmu Huade felt his scalp tingle, his lower body tightened, he swallowed with difficulty, and cautiously said to Master Ge Ruigeli, "M‑Master, the situation doesn't seem very good."

As Tangmu Huade's pupils constricted, before Ge Ruigeli could respond, the massive bear monster before him suddenly spoke.

Hum ha ha, Ge Ruigeli, you finally came.

It is said that the queen's disappearance over the past hundred years is all because of your deeds!!

A hollow, resonant voice echoed through the church.

A terrifying purple long tongue studded with dense flesh spikes, accompanied by a nauseating stream of saliva, slowly slithered from the corner of its mouth.

The giant bear flashed an anthropomorphic sneer and said, "I suppose you've heard, the queen has returned, and you are the gift I offer for Ma'erjin's queen's return."

"You are the giant bear sorcerer Youla under Ma'erjin," Ge Ruigeli's gaze hardened, his expression growing grim.

It was clear he understood that the opponent had been deliberately captured to lure him here.

Without replying, Youla the Saiweike giant bear sorcerer was already clearly impatient.

The massive bear paw slammed down on the ground with force, a powerful tremor and a surge of energy instantly rose from the earth.

The demon‑hunter, truly a seasoned legend, instantly recognized the innate skill the Saiweike giant bear sorcerer was about to unleash as he saw the opening move, while massive, ferocious rock spikes—like a dense forest of sharp stones—shattered the ground and erupted upward.

His demon‑hunting staff surged with light, instantly generating an invisible wind that lifted him precariously into the air.

He avoided a fate of a catastrophic explosion.

Roar~~!!

The Saiweike giant bear sorcerer, never expecting this move to work, already, as the rock spikes appeared, trudged heavily and charged ferociously at Ge Ruigeli, giving him no respite.

Just as he was floating in the air, before he could catch his breath, the massive bear paw of the Saiweike giant bear sorcerer came crashing down.

In a flash, Ge Ruigeli raised an energy shield before him and thrust his demon‑subduing staff toward the massive bear paw.

Boom~!!

A figure darted out, dust billowing.

Cough cough~

Accompanied by harsh dry coughs, Ge Ruigeli slowly pulled his body out of the stone wall.

The faint clatter of tiny stones falling rang out as Ge Ruigeli rose, gazing at the approaching Saiweike giant bear sorcerer.

The demon‑hunting staff, empowered by abundant mana, instantly emitted a scorching, fire‑like blast that struck the giant bear.

At that moment, as his movement was blocked, Ge Ruigeli shouted, "Mr. Huade, why are you just standing there, waiting to eat garlic!!"

At this point, Tangmu, faced with the sudden turn of events, finally reacted, quickly drawing the anti‑demon chain from his waist and flinging it at the giant bear.

The chain, like a spider web, instantly settled atop its head, a chaotic surge of magical energy immediately manifesting on the Saiweike giant bear sorcerer.

Under everyone's gaze, the once immensely strong giant bear sorcerer, a moment ago still in bear form, now seemed on the verge of reverting to human shape.

His power likewise fluctuated.

Emerging slightly from his battle frenzy, Youla instantly sensed something amiss and hurriedly reached out to grab the top of his head.

Seeing this, Ge Ruigeli leapt, seized the chain's rope, and prevented its escape.

The sheer might of Youla the Saiweike giant bear sorcerer had now left Ge Ruigeli deeply aware that if he couldn't diminish his power, this very church would become his death place.

Unfortunately, even with his power restrained, Youla the Saiweike giant bear sorcerer still far outmatched Ge Ruigeli; helpless, he quickly called for demon‑hunting apprentice Tangmu Huade.

Fulade, standing aside as a bystander, watched the master and apprentice locked in an exhausting tug‑of‑war with the giant‑bear sorcerer Yula, neither side able to gain the upper hand.

He shook his head involuntarily, ready to give them a hand and hurry things along.

"Howl~!!"

Just as Fulade's thought rose, another earth‑shaking roar suddenly sounded from outside the cathedral hall.

The voice was rough, expansive, and soaring, like a dragon's cry.

Accompanied by a series of muffled groans and screams, and the ground continually trembling and rumbling.

"Clang~!!"

Fulade frowned and turned his head.

All that could be seen was a massive head smashing open the cathedral doors, its huge, ball‑like amber eyes rolling around, fixedly gazing at everything inside the cathedral.

He happened to see, in the center of the cathedral, the deadlocked giant‑bear sorcerer Saivek, and the demon‑hunter Gregory and his apprentice.

"Roar~!!!"

Instantly a dragon‑like mighty roar burst from its ferocious mouth.

Rows of icy, sharp teeth, like so many daggers, exuded a chilling cold.

The massive head instantly squeezed through the 'narrow' cathedral doors and lunged aggressively at the demon‑hunter Gregory and his apprentice.
