The Art of Chaotic Divinity-Chapter 1428: Rampaging Beast Tide

The barbarian Supreme Elder's eyes burned with killing intent. They had finally waited for the old Demonic Jiao King to die, and only after paying a heavy price had the barbarians secured a temporary alliance with the northern demon tribe. Splitting into two forces, they launched a joint assault on the Hall of War.

Everything had been going smoothly, yet Saint Lady Hui Yue suddenly appeared and nearly wiped out the upper ranks of the barbarian Great Emperors.

The more he thought about it, the more furious he became, grinding his teeth in hatred.

No matter what, that woman had to die today!

"Die!"

The barbarian Supreme Elder unleashed a power that spanned heaven and earth as it came crashing down.

Saint Lady Hui Yue's face remained cold. She murmured softly as if speaking in a dream, "No! I cannot die. I must not die!"

With a sharp motion, she tore open the void and fled through space!

The barbarian Supreme Elder followed without hesitation, tearing through the void in pursuit. The four Great Emperor guards trailed close behind, refusing to let her escape.

These guards were the hidden force that protected the Barbarian God Temple. Each of them was a Great Emperor above the fifth level of the Divine Destiny Realm. With their secret arts, even experts above the eighth level would hesitate to face them.

Yet when all ten had joined forces, Saint Lady Hui Yue had still killed six of them in succession. It was the greatest humiliation the temple guards had ever suffered.

"You will not escape!"

The barbarian Supreme Elder's killing intent surged. They had paid such a terrible price just to heavily injure her. There was no way he would let her go.

Under the joint pursuit of five Great Emperors, Saint Lady Hui Yue fled without a clear path.

At their level, crossing through space covered vast distances in an instant.

Suddenly, she stepped into a region shrouded in ghostly mist. The moment she entered, her strength was heavily suppressed. She could not even use a tenth of her power.

"The Dead Soul Devil Abyss?"

In her younger days, she had trained in the Land of War and was well aware of this place.

She had once ranked among the "Heaven Slaying Ten Absolutes", and her position had even surpassed that of the current sect master, Sacred Emperor Tian Yuan.

Even Sacred Emperor Tian Yuan had admitted that in terms of talent, he was inferior to her.

Upon reaching this place, Saint Lady Hui Yue did not panic. Instead, a trace of relief appeared on her face.

This was a land of death. Whether Human Emperor or Great Emperor, anyone who entered would be suppressed. The higher the realm, the greater the suppression.

The barbarian Supreme Elder and the temple guards would have their strength sealed the moment they entered the Dead Soul Devil Abyss.

In the next instant, the void split open again as the barbarian Supreme Elder and the four guards arrived in pursuit.

"Hmm?"

The change in the laws of heaven and earth made the Supreme Elder's expression shift. He clearly recognized this place.

"We have entered the Dead Soul Devil Abyss?"

This place was infamous throughout the Land of War.

"Supreme Elder Ba Tu, this is a forbidden land recorded in our sacred texts. It is filled with danger. The stronger one is, the greater the suppression. Should we still pursue?"

One of the guards hesitated.

The stronger they were, the more they valued their lives. They each had nearly a thousand years of lifespan ahead of them. Dying in battle against a powerful enemy was one thing, but being devoured by monsters in this abyss was not something they could accept.

"What is there to fear? That demoness dared to enter! Are the warriors of our barbarian race inferior to a woman?"

Supreme Elder Ba Tu's eyes hardened as he gave the order coldly. "Continue the pursuit. She is heavily injured and her strength is suppressed. She is in greater danger than we are!"

"Yes!"

The four guards grew cautious but did not dare disobey. They followed him deeper into the Dead Soul Devil Abyss.

"They are still chasing me!"

A cold light flashed in Saint Lady Hui Yue's eyes. She tried to circulate her elemental force, but her injuries were too severe. After repeatedly tearing through space, her strength faltered and she spat out a mouthful of blood.

Even so, she did not slow down. With her strength suppressed, once she was surrounded, she would not even have the chance to escape through the void.

She pushed her wounded body forward at full speed, heading deeper into the abyss.

...

On the other side. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Ling Feng had just left the volcanic cavern when night fell completely.

Dense ghostly mist descended. He had not even found a temporary shelter and was forced to face the coming tide of violent monsters alone in the open.

Fortunately, the flames around his body provided light.

However, the aura of the Heaven-Incinerating Dragon Fire drove away weaker monsters. At the same time, it attracted stronger ones, especially fire-attributed beasts. They went mad the moment they sensed his presence and charged at him without hesitation.

To them, Ling Feng was a treasure. If they devoured him, they would evolve to a higher level.

Wrapped in flames, he was like a beacon in the night. No matter where he ran, the monsters could find him with ease.

Boom!

A punch exploded with Dragon-Elephant Divine Strength, sending a giant lizard flying. Its tough hide reflected part of the force back at Ling Feng, leaving his fist numb.

Because he had to divide his focus to resist the Heaven-Incinerating Dragon Fire, he could only bring out about seventy percent of his strength. His power of Eight Dragons was greatly reduced, and even reaching the strength of Five Dragons was already difficult.

Meanwhile, massive demonic beasts surged toward him from all directions, giving him no chance to breathe.

He ran and fought through the entire night.

By the end, Ling Feng was nearly exhausted. The ground was littered with the corpses of demonic beasts, and their blood had stained the land red.

The blood and the flames on his body continued to attract even more powerful beasts.

The battle seemed endless.

Only now did Ling Feng truly understand why the Dead Soul Devil Abyss was called a land of death.

All he could do was wait for dawn. Once the mist cleared, the frenzied beasts would calm down, giving him a brief chance to rest.

At that moment, the fleeing Saint Lady Hui Yue caught sight of a faint light ahead and instinctively rushed toward it.

The moment she drew closer, regret struck.

A vast number of massive demonic beasts had gathered there, all charging toward that light.

When she appeared, the scent of fresh human flesh immediately drew their attention.

The battle broke out at once.

Soon after, the pursuing barbarians also arrived and were caught in the encirclement of the beasts.

All three sides were trapped within the raging swarm. The Great Emperors had their strength heavily suppressed, leaving them with only a fraction of their power. The moment they were surrounded, they fell into bitter combat.

Ironically, Ling Feng felt some relief as the other two groups drew away part of the demonic beasts' attention.

The long night stretched on. It was impossible to tell how long the fighting lasted.

At last, a ray of sunlight broke through the mist, and the violent beast tide gradually subsided.

Everything finally fell quiet.
