Chapter 483: Demon Disaster
“This is one of the Red Rainbow Sect’s top five sword arts, the Cloud Flame Thousand Incineration!”
Lu Qinghua, the other female outer sect disciple recognized Li Fuchen’s sword art.
The Red Rainbow Sects’ top five sword arts had always been the sword arts that she yearned for. But the first half of the top five sword arts would require around 10,000 contribution points and she wasn’t able to afford it. Moreover, as of now, she had yet to cultivate her earth class high-tier Crabapples Sword Art to the trance stage and it was still too early for her to cultivate an earth class peak-tier sword art.
Zhuang Sheng and the other male outer sect disciple, Guo Wenwu had a change in expressions.
The earth class peak-tier sword art was much stronger than they imagined. In terms of the sword art profundity, it was several times superior to earth class high-tier sword arts.
If the difference was about two times between an earth class low-tier and earth class mid-tier martial arts. The difference would be around three times betweens earth class mid-tier and earth class high-tier martial arts. Finally, the difference between earth class high-tier and earth class peak-tier martial arts would be around four to five times.
As for the legendary heaven class low-tier martial arts, they would be at least ten times stronger than earth class peak-tier martial arts. It was already illogical.
As the five advanced, they had arrived at the fourth ring unknowingly.
As compared to the fifth ring, the fourth ring’s demon qi was much more concentrated as expected.
The concentrated demon qi had made the environment extremely horrific and strange.
The sky was dusky and almost no sunlight could be seen. The gray ground was covered with stalks of sawtooth grass that were as tall as a human or even twice as tall. In the distance, there were strange trees that were a few hundred meters in height. The strange trees were only a few hundred meters in height but they covered the land area of a few miles. There was black spiralling smoke that was emitted from the strange trees.
“It is the Devil Mouse Herb!”
While soaring in the sky, Zhuang Sheng scanned around and suddenly burst towards the sawtooth underbrush.
Among the sawtooth underbrush, there was a strange herb that was around the height of the waist and it had a black mouse-shaped stamen.
The Devil Mouse Herb was an earth class high-tier herb and it was one of the mission items this time. One stalk had the value of 100 contribution points and it was very rare and nearly extinct in the Seven Color Continent.
When Zhuang Sheng approached the Devil Mouse Herb, those unmoving sawtooth grass started to move violently and shot thorns at Zhuang Sheng.
Bang!
Zhuang Sheng was a 9th level Reincarnation Realm expert after all. With a burst of qi, the thorns were shattered and the qi force had pushed the surrounding sawtooth grass aside. He then reached in and pulled out the Devil Mouse Herb.
“Congratulations, Senior Zhuang.” Yun Wei and Lu Qinghua congratulated him.
One hundred contribution points wasn’t a small sum. In the past when they completed missions, they would only be rewarded with a few hundred contribution points. The Demon Ring Continent was filled with danger and there were plenty of demon treasures but it was still impossible to obtain a few thousand contribution points. It was already not bad to obtain 1000 contribution points.
“It is luck, it is luck.”
Zhuang Sheng laughed and kept the Devil Mouse Herb.
Before they departed, they had already discussed that whoever that discovered the treasure would be the owner. If everyone discovered the treasure together, they would split it according to contribution.
“What is that ahead?” Yun Wei pointed at the ‘dark cloud’ at the horizon and asked with a puzzled tone.
Zhuang Sheng took a glance and was astonished. It looked as though he had recalled something, “Hurry up and flee!”
“Those are demons.” Li Fuchen squinted his eyes and spoke indifferently.
“Demons?” Yun Wei and the others were appalled.
How many demons would be needed to form a dark cloud? Thousands? Ten thousand?”
Zhuang Sheng explained, “This is a demon disaster and it is one of the most dreadful dangers of the Demon Ring Continent. Normal demon disasters would have a few dozen class 5 demons and up to a thousand class 4 demons. Large demon disasters would have up to a hundred class 5 demons and thousands of class 4 demons. They are simply never ending.”
“Hurry up and leave then!” Guo Wenwu said in a nervous tone.
“We are probably unable to leave. There are demons coming from behind and the right side too.” Li Fuchen took a glance at the back and the right side, only to see two similar ‘dark clouds’ moving over.
Zhuang Sheng had an unpleasant expression as he said, “We are like eye-catching torches in the Demon Ring Continent. Formidable demons would be able to sense our qi presences from a thousand miles away.”
“We can only break through to the left.” Lu Qinghua suggested.
“The left side will not work either.” Li Fuchen shook his head.
“Why?”
The one asking was Guo Wenwu but once he asked the question, he immediately understood what Li Fuchen meant. The left horizon that had nothing at first had suddenly emerged with a demon dark cloud too.
“What is going on? Logically, the fourth ring should be this dangerous.” Zhuang Sheng couldn’t understand.
Li Fuchen extended his awareness over 800 miles away before he said, “We are victims of a disaster for no reason. These demons aren’t coming for us. The demons at the left and in front of us are pursuing a group of martial artists.”
“Could it be Reincarnation Realm experts from other continents?” Zhuang Sheng smiled bitterly.
The Seven Color Continent wasn’t the only continent with teleportation arrays that were linked to the Demon Ring Continent. Other continents also had teleportation arrays linked to the Demon Ring Continent.
Just the Red Rainbow Sect had control of over a dozen teleportation arrays that led to foreign continents.
The demon clouds were getting closer and the group was now able to see the martial artists that were being pursued by the demon clouds.
“Those are the outer sect disciples from the Purple Cloud Temple and Yellow Wind Valley.” Lu Qinghua said.
The Purple Cloud Temple was a monarch-class faction in the Purple Soil Continent, while the Yellow Wind Valley was a monarch-class faction from the Yellow Soil Continent.
It also meant these groups of people didn’t come from foreign continents.
The Seven Color Continent had seven continents and they were named after the seven colors: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Purple.
The outer sect disciples of the Purple Cloud Temple and the Yellow Wind Valley were in a miserable state. They might know that the three other directions also had large hordes of demons, but they didn’t have any more chance to change their direction. They could only plan their moves accordingly.
“The Red Rainbow Sect’s outer sect disciples are in front. Let us gather over there quickly.”
The leader of the Purple Cloud Temple’s outer sect disciples was a youth with withered yellow hair. When the youth saw Li Fuchen’s group, his eyes immediately lit up.
The Seven Color Continent’s seven monarch-class factions had rather good relationships. They didn’t have unending conflicts just because they weren’t on the same continent. Their battles were generally on the foreign continents while the Seven Color Continent was a place for them to cultivate, rest, and to nurture future generations.
“Fight then!’
Zhuang Sheng took a deep breath. Now that things were at this juncture, they had to help even if they didn’t want to. They would only be able to survive by working together.
The distance of a few hundred miles wasn’t considered far. In just a short moment, the demons at the front were already approaching Li Fuchen’s group.
“Rush in and don’t become targets.” Li Fuchen’s body flashed before he charged into the demon cloud like a flame .
Subsequently, sword light burst out and sword qi shot in all directions. As a result, groups of demons were slain.
“Go!”
With Li Fuchen drawing the attention, Zhuang Sheng and the others had a much easier time as they rushed into the demon cloud one after the other.
When the group was slaughtering the demons, the demons from the three other directions had arrived too.
When all four demon clouds converged, the number was up to ten thousand. It was like a gigantic black whirlpool that engulfed Li Fuchen’s group, the Purple Cloud Temple’s outer sect disciples, and the Yellow Wind Valley’s outer sect disciples. There were three layers of interior and three layers of exterior that didn’t allow anyone to escape.
“Cloud Incineration!”
Every brandish of Li Fuchen’s sword would kill at least one hundred demons.
Of course, this was mainly because there were too many demons and they were everywhere.
“Human, die!”
A Sharp Blade Demon who had blade-like arms, lunged and slashed at Li Fuchen.
“Mm?”
Li Fuchen could see that this class 5 Sharp Blade Demon was very powerful and was several times more powerful than the Blood Devil King. If it was Zhuang Sheng or the others, they would only be able to defeat the Sharp Blade Demon after spending some time.
It was a pity that Li Fuchen wasn’t Zhuang Sheng or the others.
With a sword light that was like a flaming cloud, the Sharp Blade Demon and a hundred other demons in the vicinity were devoured.
As the sword light dissipated, a hundred demons were incinerated into ashes.
