Abyssal Chronicles-Chapter 982: Falling into Chaos
1/2
"These monsters?!! Where on earth did they come from?! There are Abyssal Demons and Demon Kings!! What’s going on?!"
Flapping his four pairs of wings, the Church Wing Basarion, his body emanating intense azure holy energy, involuntarily let out hysterical roars.
Unfortunately, the enemy’s attacks wouldn’t cease because of his roars.
Just as Basarion was swinging his sword to cut down one Abyssal Demon after another, countless bizarre humanoid Demons crawled slowly from all directions like infiltrators. These Abyssal Demons had bodies similar to humans, but were completely pale, with only three fingers on each hand and foot. However, on each finger grew bright red claws as sharp as knife blades that could cut through iron like mud.
They had no eyes or nose, and on their huge faces was only a grinning abyssal mouth that looked chillingly bright.
Although much smaller than other Abyssal Demons, these monsters’ auras were no weaker.
More bizarrely, these monsters seemed to have a special constitution that could absorb holy energy. The holy energy Basarion used for sensing was absorbed by these monsters. As a result, when these monsters were only about ten meters away from Basarion, who was busy dealing with the Abyssal Demons, he only then noticed their existence.

"Damn it?!!"
The next moment, dozens of humanoid monsters pounced on Basarion with roars.
Although in the next instant, Basarion swiftly slashed all these monsters with his sword skills, he still couldn’t avoid being scratched on the arm by one of the monsters. Immediately, Basarion’s face contorted in pain, the wound rapidly infected, and indescribable pain began to constantly assault his brain, making his consciousness verry blurry.
Combined with the pain from previous rounds of attacks, Basarion’s consciousness was almost lost.
At this moment, taking advantage of Basarion’s weakness due to the intense pain, a snow-white giant wolf leaped up, opening its despair-inducing and chilling abyssal mouth towards Basarion.
"No, not good?!"
Realizing the danger, Basarion immediately tried to flap his wings to retreat. However, the infection from the worsening wound on his wings made his movements much slower.
In a battle between eighth-level powerhouses, any sluggish movement could become a fatal flaw.
This time was no exception.
Unable to escape the attack range in time, Basarion could only utter a final curse in frustration,
"Snow Devourer, you damn b..."
Before he could finish speaking,
Wings shattered, blue light dissipated,
This famous Church Wing was unceremoniously crushed into a pulp by the giant wolf’s fangs and directly swallowed.
Snow Devourer, having eaten Basarion, contentedly shook her head and licked her lips with relish.
After Basarion’s death in battle, the remaining Church Holy Knights in the Prayer Plaza naturally couldn’t continue to resist the Abyssal Demons’ attacks. Those humanoid Abyssal Demons quickly swung their claws, tearing apart the silver wings of these Holy Knights one by one, devouring their flesh completely. With the transmission of wails like ghosts howling, the Prayer Plaza officially fell.
Watching Basarion’s sword fall to the ground, Qiu Mingtong, standing on nearby ruins observing, also let out a sigh of relief.
"Whew, I didn’t expect it to go so smoothly. Should I say as expected of the special breed cultivated by Lady Shuoyue? Really impressive."
While marveling, Qiu swept her gaze over the humanoid Abyssal Demons in the plaza that were slaughtering the remaining Holy Knights.
This Abyssal Demon breed called "Devourers" was a monster created by Shuoyue years ago using the bodies of Church Apostles. Not only did they have strong resistance to holy energy, but they also possessed intense toxicity targeting holy energy users. Even eighth-level powerhouses, once infected by their venom, would suffer unbearable pain.
Although Basarion’s defeat was inseparably related to his large consumption when creating the ’Polar Star Coffin’ earlier, the severe poison from the ’Devourers’ was undoubtedly key to his defeat.
Without the effect of the severe poison, Lord Limo wouldn’t have been able to swallow him so easily.
Well, since Basarion and those Holy Knight captains are dead, the simple clean-up work that follows doesn’t need my attention.
Those blessed ordinary soldiers can be left to the ’Devourers’ to deal with, while I...
Need to focus on doing something important.
Thinking this, Qiu Mingtong slowly turned her head, directing her gaze towards the center of the Prayer Plaza, at that cone-shaped golden crystal emitting a desolate atmosphere.
The next moment, surrounded by pink fighting energy, Qiu Mingtong leaped up, arriving at the center of the plaza along with several Black Rose family guards, and looked at the crystal before her with complex emotions.
"That Asar, her report wasn’t very comprehensive. Such important intelligence, she actually didn’t include."
Saying this, Qiu Mingtong couldn’t help but click her tongue, rolling her eyes at the crystal.
"The key is, Lady Yumo was actually sealed inside, my goodness... Wasn’t it said that Lady Yumo had seen through everything? How did she still get sealed in? That expression at the time didn’t seem fake either... Sigh... I really don’t understand, is Lady Yumo smart or stubborn."
"Then, Lady Qiu Mingtong, what should we do?" a guard beside her asked with equally complex emotions.
To this, Qiu Mingtong replied in a helpless tone:
"What else can we do? Find a way to break this seal. If that Demon Goddess can’t be controlled through the soul contract, we’ll ultimately have to rely on Lady Yumo’s power. If Lady Yumo remains sealed, no matter how smoothly things go for us now, we’ll inevitably fail in the end."
"Then how do we break it? This sealing barrier is completely different from what the Duke had anticipated."
"Indeed, the Polar Star Coffin, the magic that sealed the Demon Goddess years ago. I didn’t expect it to be used here. That Tania, it seems she had an ace up her sleeve."
Eyes slightly narrowed, a trace of gravity flashed in Qiu Mingtong’s eyes.
However, as a practical person, she immediately mobilized all her strength, swinging the giant hammer in her hand, violently smashing it towards the cone-shaped golden crystal. The power of early eighth-level burst forth without reservation at this moment.
"CLANG!!"
However, accompanied by a loud crash, after a surge of energy eruption, even though the surrounding subordinates were blown away hundreds of meters by the aftershock, the cone-shaped golden crystal remained unmoved.
Watching this scene, Qiu Mingtong put down her giant hammer, her face gradually revealing a trace of unease.
It seems it’s not so easy to break, huh?
If Lady Yumo really can’t get out, then the situation doesn’t look good. If lord Duke can’t use Tania to control the Demon Goddess, once the Demon Goddess goes berserk... everything will be reduced to ashes.
Thinking of this, Qiu Mingtong drew in a sharp breath.
However...
As if sensing something, Qiu Mingtong frowned.
Although it seemed inappropriate in this serious atmosphere, Qiu Mingtong still slowly approached the crystal, crouched down, and in a somewhat comical posture, pressed her ear against it.
"Hm? It seems... there’s some strange sound coming from inside?"
Hmm,
This is,
Lady Yumo’s voice?!
Laugh, laughter?
Hm?
Why, why is she laughing so smugly?
…
Meanwhile,
Sitting at the edge of the Prayer Plaza, a certain star-eyed girl also thoughtfully gazed at that golden crystal.
Yue’s expression became more irritated as time went.
Everyone else is worrying anxiously,
Yet master is being smug in there?
Such a master...
Really,
Needs discipline!
I Must spank her butt!
Yue softly confirmed her resolution in her heart.
However,
To spank baka master’s... must first find a suitable candidate.
Thinking this, Yue cast a meaningful gaze towards the distance.
That is, towards where Mengxi was battling.
"Heheh~ I came up with a good idea~"
