Chapter 374: Battle! Primeval Mountain Range
Main Text Chapter 375: Battle! Primeval Mountain Range
Two hours later, everyone arrived at the Primeval Mountain Range.
From a distance, the Primeval Mountain Range appears as a lofty peak piercing the mist, with more than ten somewhat lower but still far higher than ordinary peaks surrounding it like stars encircling the moon.
Upon arrival, He Er Na felt her divine power flow become noticeably sluggish.
Xiao Feng's perception was even clearer; the system directly informed him.
【Due to the special field of the Primeval Deep Mountains suppressing it, life and mana auto-recovery are disabled, and all skill effects are reduced by 20%!】
Non-demon creatures fighting here are obviously at a great disadvantage!
The Primeval Mountain Range is the birthplace of the Abyssal Demon Race and the most important place in the entire Abyss.
Many powerful demons were born here, such as the Primeval Demon Tree King and the Blood Flame Demon King, etc.
It is said that the Bloodthirsty Demon God also originated from the depths of the Primeval Mountain Range, its true form originally being a 'Blood Pool,' calling itself the 'Primeval Blood Demon'.
This place is the shared ancestral land of the three great demon kingdoms of Shen Yuan Shijie; although the Dark Demon God and Purgatory Demon God were not born here, they also value it greatly, often sending strong ones to train here, hoping to receive the boon of the Primeval Mountain Range and ascend to higher realms.
Now, however, this place is shrouded in a sheet of golden light.
The War Goddess stood proudly atop the highest peak of the Primeval Mountain Range, spear in hand, using her own divine power to part the mist, unaffected by the environment, maintaining her peak state.
The black mist could not approach her, and the Primeval Mountain Range's special field had no effect on her.
Such power left the Primeval Demon Tree King and others feeling shocked.
Even He Er Na marveled inwardly, telling Xiao Feng: 'She probably has grasped most of the mysteries of the War God's inheritance seal; even if there were two of me, I could not defeat her.'
Xiao Feng comforted: 'It's fine, we have many people.'
Stop cultivating and fly forward.
Everyone landed on a slightly lower peak, facing the War Goddess from afar.
Before anyone could speak, the War Goddess laughed first: 'The rebel of the Elemental Sea has actually fallen to ally with the demons—truly a disgrace to our kind! Come, attack together; today I will slay all demons here, kill the traitor, and restore the glory of the gods!'
Her tone was full of contempt.
The Primeval Demon Tree King snorted coldly: 'That depends on whether you have the ability!'
The demon kings spread out left and right, flying in midair.
This battle will be an aerial fight!
Xiao Feng expressed mmp!
As the slowest flyer, his reflexes in aerial combat are surely inferior to others'.
Once the battle starts, he will become a living target, only able to stand and endure the War Goddess's area attacks.
But there's nothing to be done; he can only hope that over twenty defensive spells will hold for a while.
As the battle loomed, Xiao Feng took a moment to glance at the surroundings.
The Primeval Mountain Range is huge, covering no less than fifty kilometers, each mountain tall and large, with great distances between them.
Between the peaks, vegetation is scarce, dominated by gray-black rocks.
However, there are also some brightly colored gems and special plants.
The rivers flowing between the mountains vary in color: there are red blood rivers, green poison rivers, blue mana rivers, and so on.
These rivers gather in pools in the lowlands below the mountains, emitting a strange aura, unknown what they are brewing.
The whole mountain range looks like a massive chemical plant, giving a sense of danger.
On the largest Primeval Mountain, there is also a huge cavern that seems to lead into the mountain's interior, unknown what lies inside.
Xiao Feng also recalled that the Divine Light Treasure Mirror showed many mythic-grade treasures buried here; if he gets a chance later, he could dig them up!
"Battle!"
A shout of "Battle!" echoed across the gray-mist-covered sky, making the Primeval Mountain Range tremble incessantly.
Between gods and demons, no need for too much talk—if it's time to fight, fight; no reason required!
Boom!
The battle began; Xiao Feng saw a flash of golden light, and the War Goddess had already vanished from the highest peak, appearing instantly before the Primeval Demon Tree King.
With a tremendous boom, the Primeval Demon Tree King's sturdy body was blasted away, smashing into the lower mountain, shattering stones and triggering a landslide.
Xiao Feng saw the Primeval Demon Tree King's health drop by forty million directly!
Even with his specialized defense, he could suffer such heavy damage; if a zero-defense magic shield took it, it would likely be over thirty times worse!
The power of a peak Upper God is terrifying indeed!
"Kill!"
The demon kings let out a low shout and also attacked simultaneously.
The four demon kings attacked at once: crimson flames, eerie white bone blades, poisonous claws, scarlet fists—all hurled at the War Goddess.
"Is that all?"
Whoosh~
The War Goddess swept her spear horizontally, a golden arc of light flung the four demon kings away; then her figure flashed, she assaulted the Blood Flame Demon King.
"Be careful!" Mi He Er warned.
But it was too late!
The War Goddess was too fast; with a single straight thrust, no fancy technique, just the simplest attack. But thanks to her lightning-like speed, the Blood Flame Demon King could not defend, and the golden spear pierced his right arm, his health dropping by half.
"Ah~"
The wounded Blood Flame Demon King let out a roar, his shape shifting, becoming a 10-meter-tall scarlet flame spirit that danced wildly in the air.
This flame's temperature is not high, yet it can scorch divine power and soul, more terrifying than ordinary fire.
Transforming into its true form
In this state he feared no physical attack, flying straight forward to entangle the War Goddess, attempting to scorch her power.
But the War Goddess merely gave a contemptuous smile, the red lips exposed beneath her golden war helmet curling slightly.
Bang!
Golden light burst from her body, the divine seal on her back lighting up, strands of golden energy flowing into the bloodflame.
"Ahhh!"
The Bloodflame Demon King let out a painful howl, like fire meeting ice water, rapidly shrinking into a red flame about a person's height, fleeing in haste.
Xiao Feng took a look, its HP had already dropped below 50 million!
"This is impressive; if it were a one-on-one duel, the Bloodflame Demon King probably couldn't last even ten seconds……"
The gap between a peak Upper God and an ordinary Lower God is obvious at a glance!
"What are you staring at? Get moving!"
A low shout came from below the mountain, two huge tree shoots shot up into the sky, blocking between the War Goddess and the Bloodflame Demon King, preventing the War Goddess from slaying her companion.
The Primeval Demon Tree King's figure swiftly returned to midair, closing in to grapple with the War Goddess.
His true form is a colossal primeval demon tree, a melee-defense type boss, whose damage resistance is hailed as the topmost on the Zhu Shen Da Lu plane, second only to the Purgatory Demon God.
Thus, even against the War Goddess's overwhelming destructive power, he can still withstand it head-on.
But merely withstanding is not enough; his offensive capability is lacking, and against an Upper God he has no means to inflict damage!
"Master, I'm going in."
He Er Na saw that the Five Great Demon Kings were no match for the War Goddess, and immediately joined the battle as well.
She flickered, disappearing from her spot, and when she reappeared she was already behind the War Goddess.
"Wind Speech·Break!"
A strand of azure light rose from her palm, forming a tiny cone that spun at high speed, stabbing toward the divine seal on the War Goddess's back.
The War Goddess gave a light snort, swept her spear, forcing the Primeval Demon Tree King to retreat, then with a returning spear thrust she shattered He Er Na's technique.
Then she shook off the Primeval Demon Tree King and rushed straight at He Er Na to kill her.
"Here, only you are barely worthy of fighting me." She said, seeming to acknowledge He Er Na, but her tone still carried contempt.
Bang!
Boom!
The two goddesses clashed in the air—one melee, one ranged—in close combat He Er Na was at a great disadvantage, being forced into successive retreats.
Still, being an Upper God, her divine power quality is hardly different, and it hasn't yet reached the point of endangering her.
The Primeval Demon Tree King and the others roamed the surroundings, occasionally lending support.
But their strength compared to an Upper God is still far insufficient, and they cannot threaten the War Goddess.
"Now it's my turn to act……"
Xiao Feng muttered softly, equipped himself with a shield, and rose into the air.
