Chapter 1048: One Thousand to Protect, One Tactic
Chapter 1048: Thousand Protection One Tactic
Eight supremely powerful demon commanders broke through the void and charged towards the Great Sage Equalling Heaven. However, they suddenly stopped in their tracks.
In front of these eight supremely powerful demon commanders, more than a thousand demon race players appeared.
"Brother Equalling Heaven, hold on!"
"Yes, Brother Equalling Heaven, don't mind us, endure it!"
"Brother Equalling Heaven, focus on fighting the monsters, we'll be the cannon fodder!!!"
...
Hundreds and thousands of demon race players fearlessly charged out, blocking the path of the eight supremely powerful demon commanders!
The eight demon commanders had originally intended to directly eliminate the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, but they didn't expect so many demon clan members, who had been reborn as demons through ancient demonic contracts, to emerge.
Although the eight demon commanders were incredibly strong!
But these demon clan players, who had been reborn as demons, each possessed at least thirty-five demonic marks and had all signed contracts with ancient demons, making their strength formidable as well!
Each player could withstand attacks for several breaths of time before being defeated!
The hundreds and thousands of demon clan players held their ground, stopping the eight supremely powerful demon commanders in their tracks!
"Damn it!!!" The Great Sage Equalling Heaven wanted to charge out several times but managed to restrain himself in the end.
Thinking of Sugar Third's orders, the Great Sage Equalling Heaven managed to suppress his urge, watching as his monkey and rabbit brethren fell one by one on Flower Fruit Mountain.
As for the Great Sage Equalling Heaven himself, he remained hidden in a corner, employing the Unseen and Unheard Stealth Technique, refusing to reveal himself!
However...
While the Great Sage Equalling Heaven stayed hidden, his ten thousand clones began spreading wildly!
This scene left many demon and human players speechless.
This was...
Thousand Protection One?
Could it be played like this?
"Damn it, do these demon monkeys and demon rabbits intend to sacrifice themselves to protect that Great Sage Equalling Heaven?"
"Heh, do they think they can stop us?"
"Exactly! Even if they can stall us, there are still over two hundred members of our clan!"
...
Although the eight supremely powerful demon commanders were halted, there were still over two hundred elite Frost Demon Clan members soaring through the void, headed straight for the Great Sage Equalling Heaven!
On the player's side, the goal was to ensure the safety of the Great Sage Equalling Heaven and provide cover for him to level up by hunting monsters!
On the side of the Frost Demon Clan, they had also recognized the threat posed by the Great Sage Equalling Heaven and launched a full-scale attack, swearing to quickly eliminate him!
Over two hundred formidable members of the Frost Demon Clan rapidly approached, locking onto the Great Sage Equalling Heaven's position, ready to attack together!
Suddenly, the atmosphere around them changed!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!" Accompanied by an eerie aura, nearly two hundred powerful members of the Frost Demon Clan were unexpectedly pulled into a bizarre space!
An isolated world!
On the human side, one needed to reach the Divine Transformation Realm to initiate this!
On the demon side, they needed to be at least in the Seventh Rank Realm.
"Damn it, could it be the Divine Transformation Realm from the Yan Huang Sect?"
"Hard to say, maybe it's a Seventh Rank demon existence!"
"How could that be? Haven't the experts from the Yan Huang Sect gone to the Divine-Demon Tower?"
...
The nearly two hundred Frost Demon Clan members were stunned!
But even more terrifying events unfolded!
"Splish-splash!" In the center of this space, a gigantic azure stone tablet formed from huge skeletal remains gradually emerged.
At the sight of this stone tablet, all the Frost Demon Clan members were drenched in cold sweat!
In the Demon World, some insignificant individuals might not recognize it.
However, any powerful demon or a legacy-rich clan like the True Demon Clan knew about this monument!
This monument, throughout the entire Demon World, had only one entity capable of unleashing it!
That is...
The Ancient Bone Demon!
"Why would the Ancient Bone Demon's monument be here?"
"Damn it, how is this possible?"
"Could it be... the arrival of the Ancient Bone Demon?"
...
Every one of the two hundred Frost Demon Clan members turned pale with shock!
Because of the legend...
Any being that had seen the true form of the Ancient Bone Demon perished!
The existence of the Ancient Bone Demon had been eons and eons ago!
It was said that even during humanity's lost era, the Ancient Bone Demon was already renowned, an unmatched existence!
In other words...
Before the appearance of the Divine-Demon Tower, the Ancient Bone Demon was already overwhelmingly powerful, capable of pressing down and rubbing the powerful Frost Demon Clan patriarchs into the ground.
Just how powerful was the Ancient Bone Demon?
How many years had it lived?
What kind of heaven-defying strength did it possess?
No one knew!
But there was a legend throughout the Demon World!
When the monument of the Ancient Bone Demon appeared, it would inevitably lead to...
Mountains of Corpses, Seas of Blood!
"Someone!!!" At this moment, the group of powerful Frost Demon Clan members finally noticed that beside the monument of the Ancient Bone Demon, there was actually...
A mysterious figure!
It appeared to be a rabbit, but what was strange was that this rabbit was bathed in a deep blue hue, and its body seemed like a blue skeletal structure. It even had a shine akin to that of a stone tablet.
This figure had white bandages wrapped around its arms, black rabbit ears swaying in the wind.
ID: Nightwind.
"Who is he?"
"Why would this strong Frost Demon Clan member be binding his arms with bandages? Could it be... he hides some heaven-defying power within his arms?"
"This Frost Demon, he's definitely not simple!"
...
The Frost Demon Clan members were all reluctant to make a move.
At the same time...
"What the hell is going on?" A Frost Demon Clan member who had been isolated was covered in blood, looking extremely miserable. He didn't even have the chance to offer himself as a sacrifice to summon Frost Demons before he was jointly slaughtered by forty to fifty demon players!
"Hahaha! Brother Nightwind, this one's KOed. You can send the next one in!" the God of Destruction Belis laughed triumphantly.
Indeed!
This was the tactic of the God of Destruction Belis and the others!
Nightwind was the only one who had signed a contract with the Ancient Bone Demon.
He could exert a fraction of the Ancient Bone Demon's abilities!
This ability was actually one of the Ancient Bone Demon's supreme techniques: the Independent Space of Bone Domain!
Of course, the true Bone Domain wasn't as it was now, just an empty independent space.
However, Nightwind's strength was too weak, so he could only manifest it to this extent.
Utilizing Nightwind's power, the Frost Demon Clan members were pulled into this independent space of the Bone Domain! Then, within this Bone Domain, a separate secret chamber was carved out.
Nightwind sat before the monument of the Ancient Bone Demon, using the Empty City Stratagem to hold the Frost Demon Clan members in place. He then used his ability to individually transfer the Frost Demon Clan's powerful members into the secret chamber where the God of Destruction Belis and the other forty to fifty demon players were.
Led by the
God of Destruction Belis, the forty to fifty demon players who had signed contracts with the Annihilation Ancient Demon attacked together, naturally preventing the Frost Demon Clan members who were teleported in from summoning Frost Demons. They rendered them unable to act, much less offer themselves as sacrifices.
One problem solved, and then onto the next.
Perfect!
Soon, one Frost Demon Clan member after another quietly disappeared, and most of the Frost Demon Clan members were too fearful and wary to notice for a time.
But after losing a third of their numbers, the Frost Demon Clan's powerful members finally realized something was amiss!
