Chapter 140: Chapter 98 Black Death City

"As expected of the Radiant Demon Spirit, it truly is more reliable than ordinary demons," Li Xiu thought with delight.

Looking at the demon’s corpse, Li Xiu did not rush to scavenge its Demon Core. He speculated that the Knight of Chrysanthemum’s death might be related to the dark smoke surrounding the demon.

Once the dark smoke fully dissipated, Li Xiu summoned the Jedi Knight to approach the demon’s corpse first.

After the smoke completely cleared, with a cracking sound, the demon’s body automatically disassembled, scattering parts all over, and a black Demon Core fell out.

As expected, when the Jedi Knight walked beside the demon, no abnormality occurred.

Li Xiu commanded the Jedi Knight to pick up the Demon Core, which looked as if it was wrapped in cast iron, with a crystal inside resembling Black Apatite.

Clang! Clang!

The sound of chains dragging on the ground rang out again, but this time it came from the end of the street to the left, rather than the main street ahead.

Li Xiu rode the Pink Nightmare towards the crossroads and indeed saw another similar demon walking down the left street.

Without waiting for the demon to approach, Li Xiu ordered Demigod Shana to shoot it down with one shot.

Sounds also emanated from the right street as another demon appeared. Li Xiu didn’t even need to act; Demigod Shana swiftly dealt with all those demons.

Li Xiu looked toward the direction where they had fled, and sure enough, the same demon appeared on that street.

After killing that demon, the four ends of the cross-shaped street began to incessantly produce demons.

One demon after another appeared; at first, Li Xiu had the Jedi Knight collect Demon Cores, but soon there was no time for that. Demigod Shana continuously dashed about, slaying demons, yet they appeared in ever-increasing numbers.

"How many demons are there?" Li Xiu wondered, frowning as hordes of demons charged from all four directions.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Demigod Shana no longer had time to relocate and stood at the crossroads, endlessly firing, but there were simply too many demons to kill them all.

These demons were clearly E-Class, yet it was a pity the Demon Armor couldn’t be brought in. Otherwise, using the S-Class Magic Light would have wiped out a large area at once.

The demon horde multiplied, nearly surrounding him. In desperation, Li Xiu blew fiercely at the Copper Oil Lamp floating beside him, hoping to extinguish it.

The voice said once the oil lamp went out, he could leave this place.

However, no matter how hard he blew, the flame remained unmoved.

Adrenaline surged as Li Xiu reached for the Fire Lotus Sword at his waist, slashing at the oil lamp.

With his immense strength, Li Xiu forcefully drew the Fire Lotus Sword. The blade, glowing red, slashed down, only to make a clanging sound.

The blade hadn’t even touched the oil lamp before being deflected as if some invisible force was protecting it.

Sensing the oil lamp couldn’t be extinguished, Li Xiu dismounted from the Pink Nightmare and sent it charging at the demons on one of the streets.

The Pink Nightmare’s hooves flared with a pink glow like flames, its body shimmering with iridescent colors. Its horn radiated a dazzling red light, and with one charge, it sent the leading demon flying back, a gaping hole ripped in its chest by the horn as black smoke surged forth.

Unafraid of the smoke, the Pink Nightmare plunged into the demon horde, dashing back and forth like a pink lightning bolt. Demons fell one after another wherever it passed.

Seeing this, Li Xiu felt a surge of joy and stationed the Ice Soul Sea Demon on another street.

Blue light swirled around the Ice Soul Sea Demon as it lunged at a demon, its tentacles wrapping around the demon’s head, twisting like a drill, tearing the head clean off.

Reassured by the sight, Li Xiu concluded that the black smoke from the demons did not harm all entities.

If Li Xiu’s hypothesis was correct, their black smoke only affected demons without rank or protective glows.

With the Ice Soul Sea Demon and Pink Nightmare each securing a street, Demigod Shana’s burden eased. Yet, despite guarding two streets alone, the demons couldn’t get close.

The Pink Nightmare killed with rapid speed, its fiery hooves trampling the demons’ armored bodies to pieces, charging back and forth as if entering an unchallenged domain.

Though the Ice Soul Sea Demon could also kill demons, its speed lagged far behind Demigod Shana and the Pink Nightmare.

It could only break one demon’s head at a time, causing some demons to slip past it.

Li Xiu dared not take risks, gritting his teeth he had the Jedi Knight charge forward.

Initially fearing the Jedi Knight lacked a protective glow and might be harmed by the smoke, surprisingly, the Jedi Knight feared neither the smoke nor the demons, holding its ground.

Its Samurai Sword, resembling a Fluorescent Stick, could cleave through the demons’ armor, appearing quite formidable.

With the Jedi Knight joining forces with the Ice Soul Sea Demon, they finally managed to hold back the street’s demon assault.

Masses of demons fell, leaving scattered corpses across the streets, black smoke endlessly rising.

"How strange, why is it that the Knight of Chrysanthemum feared the smoke, while the Jedi Knight did not? Could it be related to the evil?" Li Xiu pondered, attributing it to the influence of the evil.

The Jedi Knight had consumed an evil, unlike the Knight of Chrysanthemum.

After what felt like endless battle, the last demon finally had its head cleaved off by the Jedi Knight, leaving the street littered with shattered armor-like corpses, many still billowing smoke.
