Chapter 215: The Siege of the Nether Soul Demon Clan, The Arrival of Long Tianlu

A chilling laughter echoed through the dim expanse of the subterranean cavern as a scarlet radiance gradually suffused the darkness, revealing the figure of a tall, imposing man.

This man, distinguished by a crown of bloody hair and a complexion as pale as moonlight, possessed eyes that were demonically captivating.

His identity was none other than Long Tianlu!

The Nether Demon Clan was a diverse congregation, split into myriad branches.

Some of its members bore the visage of grotesque monstrosities, while others bore uncanny resemblance to ordinary human beings.

Long Tianlu was of the latter group.

"Hehehe!" Long Tianlu's savage laughter reverberated throughout the space, the scarlet aura surrounding him intensifying until it bathed the entire cavern in its ominous light.

In his wake, a multitude of demonic cultivators prostrated themselves in subservience.

The majority of these demonic cultivators were females, interspersed with a handful of males. Each was marked by the tell-tale crimson hair.

...

"The moment has arrived. Rise, my brethren!" Within the half-shut eyes of Long Tianlu, a dangerously icy glint abruptly flashed.

A horrifying surge of power, an aura that far outstripped those within the ordinary Dao Palace realm, erupted with unparalleled force.

Boom!

Instantaneously, the terrain of this subterranean expanse bulged upwards.

The crust of the earth split and heaved, undulating like a monstrous wave.

A column of dark red light, mighty and awe-inspiring, pierced the heavens!

A commanding voice bellowed, "Annihilate them!"nove(l)bi(n.)com

"Show no mercy to the resistors!"

"Claim dominion over all beings in this continent!"

One after another, the demonic cultivators swirled within the ominous crimson energy pillar, their expressions fierce, charging unyieldingly toward the sacred grounds of the Purple Heaven Holy Land!

Lastly, Long Tianlu emerged from the heart of the crimson energy column, casting frigid, scornful looks upon the expanse of the Purple Heaven Holy Land.

In his gaze, this Purple Heaven Holy Land was no more significant than a brittle bubble!

"So, they've finally emerged! The Nether Demon Clan!" Jiang Chen's gaze was riveted upon the towering column of dark red energy, his attention swiftly drawn to Long Tianlu and his demonic compatriots.

"It's the Nether Soul Demon Clan!" Nangong Wan's voice echoed in Jiang Chen's Sea of Consciousness, "A demon clan naturally adept in the art of soul attacks and seduction, yet their other offensive capabilities are not to be underestimated when compared to other clans of the Demon Race."

Shangguan Ning added, "Even within the ranks of the Demon Race, the Nether Soul Demon Clan is considered elite, with members reaching the realm of Inquiring Journey upon maturity. Those blessed with superior aptitude may even ascend to the Transcendence realm!"

"The brain of a Nether Soul Demon Clan member forms a soul core, brimming with extraordinarily pure soul force. With the application of a unique technique, it can be harnessed to substantially augment one's soul without any adverse effects!"

"The Nether Soul Demon Clan's soul attack methods are indeed formidable, but they harbor a critical vulnerability."

"Located at the base of their neck is a ruby-like Nether Soul Crystal. Should it be destroyed or extracted, the Nether Soul Demon Clan member will plummet into a state of near-death."

The voices of Nangong Wan and Shangguan Ning took turns, providing Jiang Chen with a comprehensive understanding of the Nether Soul Demon Clan.

Among the Holy Land cultivators, tens of thousands were proficient in methods of soul protection.

Therefore, despite the generally inferior cultivation base of the Holy Land cultivators, they managed to endure the Nether Soul Demon Clan's initial wave of soul assaults when they rallied their full strength.

Naturally, the disciples of the Holy Land had to pay a steep price.

Some disciples with lower cultivation bases sustained critical injuries, mental impairments, and some were even struck dead on the spot.

Suddenly, a thunderous detonation rent the air.

Long Tianlu could be seen soaring upwards, his figure shrouded by thick, dark clouds. They swirled and morphed around him, manifesting a colossal, peak-like silhouette in black.

"Perish!!" From his elevated position, Long Tianlu bellowed as he gathered his soul power and unleashed a savage Soul Thorn attack!

The breadth of this assault encompassed a significant area of the Holy Land's formation!

Should he succeed, a vast number of disciples would undoubtedly perish instantly.

"Divine Azure Soul Fire!" Just in the nick of time, Mo Yu initiated his counterattack. His powerful soul force metamorphosed into a dazzling azure light, shimmering resplendently.

However, in the very next moment, Mo Yu's expression altered, hinting at a trace of pain in his eyes.

Long Tianlu was undeniably formidable, specializing in soul assaults. In this domain, Mo Yu was not his equal!

Yet, despite the pain, Mo Yu was resilient!

He wouldn't challenge the enemy's strength with his own weakness.

"Dark Star Sky Cleaving Sword!" The Purple Heaven Immortal Martial Sword was drawn, its icy gleam glinting. Mo Yu vanished from his original position instantaneously, weaving through the grand formation to engage Long Tianlu!

"What! An immortal sword!" Long Tianlu's expression shifted, his eyes awash with astonishment, he promptly acted to deflect Mo Yu's attack.

In the following moment, the two became entangled in a fierce combat!

'It's my time to act!' A smirk tugged at the corner of Jiang Chen's mouth. With a single mental command, he pushed the Heavenly Demon Hidden Heart Ring to its utmost capacity.

Suddenly, his figure completely vanished, leaving no trace to the naked eye.

In the next heartbeat, outside the grand formation, a sword light mysteriously materialized at the nape of a Dao Comprehension realm Nether Soul Demon Clan member.

Slash!

Blood spurted, and a red crystal embedded with flesh was propelled high into the air.

This Nether Soul Demon Clan member trembled violently, his eyes wide open in horror, brimming with despair.

But he didn't even have the opportunity to utter a scream before his head tumbled to the ground!

A Dao Comprehension Realm Nether Soul Demon Clan member had silently met his end at Jiang Chen's hands.
