Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high! Chapter 619: 474 Big Devil!2

```

The figure standing before them was so srizing that the familiar face seed just within reach, as if extending a hand would allow one to touch it.

As their eyes clouded with confusion and desire, a cold sun rose high in the distance of their vision, its endless radiance shining upon each of its believers.

It also brought a mont of clarity to Kiro Lan's consciousness.

Spiritual Energy, which seed to spontaneously generate like a suddenly bursting spring, filled his eyes with clarity as his engraving tool again thrust forward with force, stabilized by the steady infusion of Spiritual Energy…

[You are currently expending combat experience to comprehend and morize the Array depicted by the target...]

[Target successfully completes a node, node record 1.]

…

[… node record 1.]

Perhaps it was getting past the initial discomfort, but Kiro Lan's pale face surprisingly looked much better now.

The engraving flowed smoothly and swiftly, even faster than when he started.

However, this fallen ancient castle would not give them endless ti.

In the perception of Spiritual Energy, dark auras arose like a tempest in their consciousness; a thousand-ard monster, covered with various bizarre organs, slowly presented itself before the eyes of all survivors within the castle.

Seeing the monster that suddenly appeared, Arnold's face turned ashen outside the scene as he exclaid, "Great Demon!"

The ntor's eyes were dark, his tone dead, "…A thousand faces."

Every Great Demon represented the absolute fighting force within a faction of demons.

No one knew exactly how many demons there were in the higher dinsions.

Apart from the supre lords of the four major factions, there might be quite a few other faction origin demons with abilities not inferior to the four pillars.

Beneath the four pillars, there were the nurically scarce demon princes or the God-chosen children who rose from among humanity; they were the outstanding ones just below the pillars.

Following them were the Great Demons, the highest tier of high-dinsion demons humans commonly encountered and the main manifestation of the combat power within the demonic ranks.

The higher-tier demons would probably never be seen in the real world unless humans ventured deep into the higher dinsions.

There were not a few Great Demons, and the strong among them could even wrestle with so of the demon princes, while the weaker ones… weren't much weaker either.

A thousand faces, indeed, were what the Arbitration Place… or rather, what the Arbitration Place had encountered before the Empire had completely fractured—a Great Demon of the desire series.

In that battle, nearly all of the second-tier Spiritual Energy users were nearly wiped out. However, the final outco was only to shatter the real-world body of that Great Demon, sending it back to the higher dinsion to wait for a long "resurrection."

Unexpectedly, at this mont… it had manifested in this fallen castle through such an opportunity.

Demons entering the real world were almost always suppressed by the laws of reality, which prevented them from fully displaying their original strength. Yet now, a Great Demon in the interlayer between two worlds, even if not at its pri as in the higher dinsion, was probably not comparable to when it arrived in the real world before.

"We're really in trouble now!"

"Trying to leave… probably won't be possible anymore!"

"Quick, call for the Holy Artifact!" the ntor demanded with stern eyes.

"The Holy Artifact isn't sothing you can just move whenever you wish…" Aglaya narrowed her eyes lightly, "You'll have to apply to the Elder Council."

"Then go apply!"

However, watching the commotion inside the castle, Aglaya spoke calmly, "Let's… wait and see."

The arrival of a Great Demon should have instantly killed the lower-tier power holders.

But not to ntion the lower-tier power holders, even those survivors without Spiritual Energy seed to be unaffected, standing still in place.

Apart from the evident bewildernt, Aglaya didn't find anything unusual about them.

In fact, she had sensed sothing amiss from the beginning.

At first facing the Lust Slaves, the other survivors besides Bai E already seed to be struggling greatly.

As the "Murmurs" accumulated layer by layer, the "Slowing Aura" exerted its maximum effect.

Yet after the arrival of the four-legged demon "Child of Desire," who inherited the "Murmurs" ability, the performance of those survivors actually beca noticeably lighter.

```

The ability possessed by the Desire's Child was not few, yet how did those survivors suddenly beco able to ignore the presence of the "Slow Aura"?

The answer might just lie with that military area War God who created endless miracles—Bai E!

...

The longsword in his hand emitted a cool radiance, waves of which rippled outward, invisible to anyone but Bai E himself.

Having acquired enough proficiency through "Absolute Mastery" to form his personal style—"Heart Flow"—his sword, nurtured by the essence of demon after demon, had finally unlocked a fixed magical blade that specialized in attacking demons.

[Noble Longsword (Magic Blade): As a blade blessed by radiance, this decorative noble longsword has completed a transformation of its mission. From now on, it will permanently possess the attributes of eternal light—exorcism, Heart Flow, and 30% attack power against "Desire Demons"; all mbers under his command will ignore the effects of "Desire" laws, unless they actively "touch" it or the bearer of the sword falls first. You may na this longsword, and only those who have your permission and extol its true na can utilize its full power.]

[Your skill—Enhanced*Magic Blade has successfully recorded a new racial special attack attribute: 30% attack power against "Desire Demons", and all mbers under your command will ignore the effects of "Desire" laws, unless they actively "touch" it or the bearer of the sword falls first. From now on, when you use any enchanted weapon, you can bestow it with this special attack attribute. However, if you wish to continue enhancing the effect of the special attack attributes, you must use the very first blade that completed the leap—"The Blade of Origin". Current level 2 special attack effect progress: 2300/3000.]

Lawful Blade of Heart!

This was the new na for the noble longsword.

Before Bai E fell, all warriors who believed in him would not be beguiled or controlled by the demons of Desire.

Not even by the newly arrived great demon!

Bai E's longsword trembled as he took the initiative to strike first.

Like a tower, the great demon's body focused its eyes on the charging human warrior instantly.

"Hah!"

A fierce shout and the illusion shattered.

Under Heart Flow, the world operated solely according to Bai E's will.

Sensing the uselessness of illusions, the great demon imdiately switched combat style, filling the entire first floor of the castle with a plethora of false shadows in the blink of an eye.

From the bodies that seed both illusion and reality, countless arms waved, and black auras, fast and slow, attacked towards Bai E's position.

For a ti, the entire first floor of the castle seed to be filled with dense, dark malice.

Malice is the bone-scraping knife.

Each stroke shaved at the heart.

Swirling sword shadows around Bai E, the malicious aura struggled to approach him.

However, passively taking hits was never a good strategy.

As one sword stroke opened a curtain of light, Bai E instantly reached into the void and drew out a bow and arrows.

Suspended in midair while being sent flying backward, he drew the bow and notched seven icy-cold arrows, which shimred coldly on the bow.

In the next mont, endless Spiritual Energy converged in his hand, exploded at the tip of the arrows, and transford into a force as solid as reality.

In this layer between two worlds, not only were the powers of demons manifested at their source, but his Spiritual Energy was also more active than ever before.

Kill a hundred with a single shot!

The seven arrows dispersed like swimming dragons, followed closely by a myriad more shadowy arrows all rushing out together.

One arrow shot out as if it were an army of a thousand troops.

The endless arrows traced a curved trajectory, successively piercing through the bodies of several great demons.

It must be said that the strength of the great demons was particularly horrifying, with each illusionary body possessing a physical form as real as the original.

But when struck, they did not hold up nearly as well as the original body.

[Your attack has successfully hit the target, causing 100 points of penetrating damage.]

[Your attack has successfully hit the target, causing 100 points of penetrating damage.]

[Your attack has successfully hit the target, causing 20 points of penetrating damage.]

Among the dense numbers indicating damage, the smallest feedback visibly allowed Bai E to lock onto his target.
