Chapter 237

In the pitch-black sky, a bright moon hung high, and beneath the moonlight, a woman in blue leather armor, wielding a Divine Sword, confronted the enormous demon. The sacred moonlight attempted to dispel the surrounding dark Demonic Qi.

"Buzz!!"

Just then, above the giant demon's head, an immensely large formation rapidly took shape. The moment the formation was complete, beams of icy blue light flashed from within.

In the next instant, countless icy blue crystals rained down from the formation, pelting the giant demon trapped within. The sharp ice crystals, like raindrops, continuously struck the demon's body, creating a cacophony of crackling sounds.

However, such attacks had little effect on the Demon Corpse. The demon didn't even bother to dodge, allowing the ice crystals to fall upon its body, adding a touch of icy blue to its otherwise black bones.

"Roar!!"

A Demonic howl echoed, and the surrounding Demonic Qi surged violently, as if following an order, pressing down on the round moon in the center.

Luna's expression turned solemn upon seeing this. The crystal on her forehead flashed again, and the moonlight above her head burst forth with dazzling silver radiance, pushing back the encroaching Demonic Qi once more.

This was a battle between domains. If they were enveloped by the Demon Corpse's Demonic Domain, their strength would only be continuously depleted, eventually leading to their deaths. Therefore, Luna had to resist the erosion of the Demonic Domain.

Athena below wasn't just watching idly. The spear she had been charging up finally rose at this moment, stabbing fiercely towards the giant demon's chest.

"Heretic, die!"

The golden spear, carrying a powerful battle intent, tore through space and thrust forward.

But in the next instant, Athena's brow furrowed. A giant Demonic palm reached out to grab her. Facing the overwhelming palm, Athena remained fearless, holding her spear and stabbing down with a fierce determination.

"Boom!"

The moment the spear collided with the Demonic palm, sacred divine power and vast Demonic Qi erupted, causing Athena's expression to change abruptly.

The immense Demonic Qi almost instantly shattered her divine power, sending her flying. Then, the Demonic palm moved again, grabbing directly at Athena. If this palm landed, Athena's physical body might be crushed instantly.

At the critical moment, a moon-blue light flashed past, causing the giant Demonic palm to miss.

Luna, who had acted in time, retreated to the side and set Athena down, who she had been holding in her arms. However, her expression was very grave.

"There's something wrong with this Demon Corpse. Its strength far exceeds what we can handle right now!"

After stabilizing herself, Athena's expression was also somewhat gloomy. In the instant of their exchange, the Demonic Qi that erupted was not much weaker than her at her peak.

But, one must know, Athena at her peak was a true goddess of war and wisdom, a top-tier deity. There were not many gods stronger than her.

Xuan Ming's expression was also somewhat solemn. The strength of this Demon Corpse was beyond their expectations. Her Xuan Ice power was even having difficulty breaking through the Demon Corpse's defenses.

"Boom!"

A sandstorm swept across the sky, engulfing the entire Land of Bones in the blink of an eye.

Luna's pupils constricted slightly, her gaze falling on the wind and sand that filled the surroundings. Her eyes held a hint of gravity. With a wave of her jade hand, a special power began to gather on the Sword of Judgment.

Athena beside her held her spear and round shield, looking solemnly at the surrounding, obscured sand, guarding against enemies appearing from within. Xuan Ming also raised her fair hand, and an icy blue light surged. Soon, an icy blue staff appeared in her hand.

"Buzz!!"

At the top of the staff, within the deep blue ice crystal, a chilling cold Qi surged.

"Roar!!"

Amidst Luna and the others' vigilance, a series of low roars suddenly echoed from within the sandstorm, like powerful demons, hidden in the sand, watching the besieged gods.

A powerful and eerie aura surged from all directions, assailing Luna and the others. Athena's eyes narrowed, and in the next moment, a radiance emanated from her.

"Holy Domain Radiance!"

The sacred light poured out from Athena's body, illuminating the sandstorm around them. Under the shimmering, yet not blinding, light, the scene within the sandstorm was gradually revealed.

Xuan Ming's pupils suddenly contracted, and a wave of fear instantly washed over him as he said in a cold voice, "Those are... Demon Corpses!"

Demon Corpses?

Luna gazed at the ancient, dark corpses in the sandstorm, beings that resembled humans yet were entirely different, and her expression grew increasingly grave.

From those Demon Corpses, Luna could sense a repulsive, chilling aura, an aura of Death that seemed to want to devour all life.

"Could this be where the God of Fate buried the Demonic army back then?"

Suddenly, it was as if a flash of inspiration struck Athena, causing her expression to change slightly, with even a hint of fear in her eyes.

That battle back then was extremely fierce. Although the gods won, it was a pyrrhic victory. Not only did a chief god fall, but even the surviving chief gods were all seriously injured.

"It's possible. This Death Desert was originally a desolate land with almost no living creatures. It's very likely that it was used by the chief gods."

As Xuan Ming spoke in a deep voice, the rich power of ice and snow continuously gathered on his staff, and the surrounding temperature began to drop continuously. Even pure white snowflakes had begun to flutter down.

"Regardless, we'll just fight our way out!"

Compared to Xuan Ming and Athena's solemnity, Luna's expression was serious, but there was no fear. Instead, there was more of a sharp fighting spirit.

The Sword was slowly raised in front of her, and a mysterious and profound power of Fate gathered on the blade. In the next moment, Luna waved her jade hand, and Sword Qi raged around the Sword.

"Sword of Judgment!"

The light golden Sword Qi, like the power of Fate in the dark, passed straight through the bodies of all the Demon Corpses in the sandstorm, but did not cause any substantial damage.

However, upon closer inspection, one could find that all the Demon Corpses had a special golden mark on their bodies, like the eyes of Fate, watching them closely.

"Azure Sword!"

Luna's sharp eyes narrowed slightly, and then, her whole person instantly transformed into a golden shadow, disappearing from the spot.

When Luna's figure appeared again, she was already behind a Demon Corpse, her Sword still maintaining the action of stabbing straight forward. However, in the next moment, Luna's figure disappeared again in an instant.

Xuan Ming and Athena only saw a golden shadow flashing in the sandstorm, the power of Fate emitting waves of powerful fluctuations. Then, one Demon Corpse after another scattered on the ground.

"Whoosh!"

"Buzz!"

With a flash of golden light, Luna's figure stopped beside Athena and Xuan Ming, and the fluctuating power of Fate on her body gradually calmed down.

Athena was just about to speak, but in the next moment, her expression changed again. Even Luna's sword-like eyebrows furrowed tightly as she looked at the scattered bones in the sandstorm, which had once again gathered to form Demon Corpses.

"Their aura is a bit weaker. It seems that if we want to kill these Demon Corpses, we can only completely wear down the Demonic Qi in their bodies..."

Xuan Ming said calmly as he looked at the Demon Corpses, but before he could finish speaking, his expression suddenly changed.

The Demon Corpses that had been pieced together again did not launch an attack. Instead, they began to merge with each other, and the aura of the Demon Corpse that was constantly growing larger caused even Xuan Ming to feel a burst of horror.

"I understand, this was done by Zeus and his damned lot. They plan to reuse all the demons killed back then to form an army of the dead here!"

At this moment, Xuan Ming's expression also turned ugly. She slowly raised the staff in her hand, and then, with Xuan Ming as the center, the entire desert began to turn cold.

"Kaka!!"

The sandstorm quietly stopped, and the ice froze the entire desert on the ground. The original yellowish desert turned into a blue ice and snow world in the blink of an eye.

Snowflakes fell quietly, but before they could get close to the constantly growing Demon Corpse, they had already melted.

"Ice, never decay!"

As Xuan Ming tapped lightly with the staff in her hand, ice-blue crystals quickly formed at the feet of the huge Demon Corpse and continued to grow. In the blink of an eye, it was about to freeze the huge Demon Corpse.

"Roar!!"

At this moment, the Demon Corpse roared, and all the ice crystals shattered instantly. The frozen Demon Corpses were also swallowed into its mouth.

After completely merging all the Demon Corpses, the huge Demon Corpse, which was dozens of feet tall, couldn't help but roar to the sky again.

"Roar!!"

The roar made Luna's face change slightly, and she quickly used the power of fate in her body to resist the demonic sound in her ears.

At the same time, the ice and snow world that originally covered the entire desert quickly receded, revealing the loess-colored desert.

And in the originally bright sky, a touch of black appeared at some unknown time, like a drop of jet-black ink on blue velvet.

However, in the next moment, the drop of ink immediately Halo opened and spread to the surroundings.

"This is the Demonic Domain!"

Athena couldn't help but Gasping a breath of cold air that hadn't completely faded away. Xuan Ming's expression was even more solemn. Just now, that was her Divine Domain, the Ice and Snow Domain, but it was so easily broken by the other party's Demonic Domain. It could be seen that this Demon Corpse, no, this Heavenly Demon, was extremely powerful.

"Domain?"

Luna raised her head and stared at the darkening sky, with a few faint shimmering lights in her eyes.

Her brother's body contains almost all the Arcana Miracle Power fragments of their Hanxing Family. If there is a problem with the Arcana Miracle Power, doesn't that mean that her brother is very dangerous?

"Yes, the Arcana Miracle Power is not something that anyone can control. Otherwise, when I stole the Miracle Power back then, I would have taken it over long ago."

Athena said very frankly. Even as a god, she was very eager for such a powerful force.

Gods are also living beings, and naturally have their own emotions and desires. However, unlike mortals, she is more rational, or rather, her heart is stronger and will not be blinded by temporary greed.

"It is said that the Arcana Miracle Power needs to find a suitable container to be accommodated, otherwise, it will be backlashed by the power and fall into greed."

"Fall into greed, making people can't help but want to plunder other Miracle Powers? This, could it be the legendary curse?"

Luna couldn't help but ask. Her amber eyes were now full of worry. She began to be afraid, afraid that her brother would gradually lose himself, afraid that her brother would no longer be her brother.

Athena first glanced at Luna in surprise, but she didn't think much about it. She just thought that Luna had heard about the legend of the Miracle Power. After all, Luna is the envoy of the God of Fate Temple, and it is very possible to know some secrets.

Having been away from the world for many years, Athena is not clear about the affairs of the Kings Continent, and naturally will not associate in this regard.

"That's right, in fact, the so-called curse of the Arcana Miracle Power is just a joke. Its essence is just the weak heart's desire for powerful power, and it is easy to lose oneself in the incomparably powerful power."

After hearing Athena's words, Luna couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Her brother is the most powerful swordsman in the Sunset Temple!

"Now that the digression is over, we should think about how to deal with the opponent in front of us."

While speaking, Luna and the other two did not stop, and had already arrived at the edge of that Land of Bones.

Looking at the endless bones and the aura of Death spreading from them, even Xuan Ming, a complete god, couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

"I can feel that her body contains a power that even makes me feel frightened, which may be the power of the Butterfly in the Clouds you mentioned!"

A trace of fear flashed in Xuan Ming's eyes. The stunningly beautiful woman lying in the ice coffin, without any signs of life, gave Xuan Ming an ominous premonition.

Athena saw that the Ancient Moon Descendant seemed to be completely dead, but she was not careless at all, and just wanted to leave this ghostly place quickly. That crazy woman was not an easy person to deal with.

"She doesn't seem to be showing any signs of waking up now, let's just quickly pass through..."

However, before Athena could finish her words, her face suddenly changed, and even Luna and Xuan Ming's expressions changed drastically.

"Boom! Boom!"

Suddenly, on the desert around the Land of Bones, rolling sand and dust came, and almost in an instant, it had formed a huge sandstorm.

"Boom!"

The sandstorms from all directions swept towards this Land of Bones in the next moment, seemingly heading towards the woman in the ice coffin.
