Chapter 155: Rune Chains

Crack, crack…

Countless Skeleton Warriors covered the mountains and plains, appearing before the guards of Sin City. Unlike ordinary Skeletons, each one wore heavy armor and held sharp blades or crossbows; there were even teams of Skeleton Mages holding Magic Staffs, armed to the teeth. The black mass was boundless; at a glance, the sheer number made one’s scalp tingle.

“Close the city gates, close the city gates!”

“Fire the arrows, quick!”

…

After the shock passed, the soldiers reacted and hastily prepared for battle. The heavy city gates had just closed when a large group of Skeleton Warriors rushed to the base of the wall and set up high cloud ladders. A dense wave of arrows rained down, piling a layer of Skeletons at the base of the wall, but before the archers could attack again, an ear-piercing ‘whoosh’ sound rang out in the air, and bone arrows that blotted out the sky whistled over.

After obtaining large amounts of resources, the Bone Tower of the Lich Castle rose to the top level, able to summon a large number of Skeleton Warriors every day. To strengthen the siege power of the close-combat legion, Yisu focused on developing the Skeleton Archer unit. The number of Skeleton Archers alone was as high as a hundred thousand; after rushing up under the cover of the Skeleton Warriors, their continuous dense rain of arrows suppressed the guards of Sin City so they couldn’t lift their heads.

“Blackwater City? You… you are the Underground Demon King who recently occupied Blackwater City?”

Sinful Left Hand was greatly shocked, looking up and down at Hu Feng, who held the Death Oak. The power within his body rose steadily, brewing a Fatal Strike. With a wave of his hand, his personal guards quickly scattered and surrounded Hu Feng and his group.

The reason he did not lead his army to join the alliance this time, risking offending the Overlord Elf Queen, was the threat of Blackwater City. After occupying the cursed empty city of Blackwater City, Yisu quickly blocked the news, but it could be hidden for a while, but over time, it was impossible not to leak a trace of clues.

After learning the news, Sinful Left Hand quickly felt a strong threat and secretly sent a large number of scouts to detect the situation in Blackwater City. Although he knew a huge legion was stationed inside, he didn’t expect them to come knocking on the door so soon! Especially Hu Feng, the City Lord of Blackwater City who had never shown his face; upon meeting him, he immediately felt a strong sense of unease.

Rumors said that the one who occupied Blackwater City was a mysterious and cruel Underground Demon King, proficient in invisible curses. Sinful Left Hand, who had been inquiring about Hu Feng’s situation everywhere, did not expect him to be so young. He looked to have only the strength of the primary Holy Step, but upon careful sensing, his strength was unfathomable, and the strength of the Holy Angel Taliana and others standing beside him was also extraordinary!

“That’s right, I am the one who occupied Blackwater City!”

Looking at the shocked Sinful Left Hand, Hu Feng said indifferently: “The entire Wasteland is mine, and the entire dark Underground World is also mine. Blackwater City is just the beginning of our conquest of the Underground World. Hand over the Demon God Essence Blood and Sin City, and I can spare you from death, otherwise, you will wish you were dead!”

Sin City was powerful, especially Sinful Left Hand, the City Lord, whose strength was even greater than Redelson’s, containing a dangerous aura within his body. But no matter how powerful he was, Hu Feng was determined to deal with him and would capture Blackwater City at all costs. The surrounding castles were emptily defended; this was a good opportunity to take advantage of the void, a rare chance that must not be missed!

“Hahaha, what a joke, conquer the entire Underground World? Do you think you are the Elf Queen, or an Ancient Demon God?”

Sinful Left Hand laughed loudly. At this moment, there was no need to say more; it was either you die or I live. Suddenly, he raised his head and roared. In an instant, an evil sinful aura surged out, enveloping the entire castle. Under the shroud of this aura, the cross tattoos on the soldiers’ foreheads glowed with black light, and their strength skyrocketed. Their already developed muscles bulged high like inflated balloons. Under the leadership of their respective commanders, they fiercely thwarted the attacks of the Skeleton Warriors; they even fearlessly opened the city gates and charged out, sweeping away the Skeletons all over the mountains and plains.

Sinful Frenzy!

After inhaling the sinful aura, the Sinful Citizens, who had always regarded death as a relief, were greatly boosted in morale and became completely violent. Regardless of age or gender, they all put on armor; every citizen was a soldier. The attacking Skeleton Legion was forcefully repelled by them, suffering heavy casualties. To cover the retreat of the Skeleton Archers and Skeleton Mages, the Skeleton Warriors acting as the rear guard were almost completely wiped out. More and more soldiers swarmed into the square, heavily surrounding Hu Feng and his group.

“Young man, let me show you true power!”

Looking at Hu Feng’s group who could not escape, Sinful Left Hand was full of Killing Intent. Before his voice fell, he lunged directly at Hu Feng, punching towards his chest. The plain left fist suddenly expanded just as it was about to hit Hu Feng, instantly growing dozens of times larger, smashing down heavily like a huge iron hammer. It knocked away the sharp Death Oak and smashed directly towards Hu Feng’s chest.

Fist met sword, yet there was not a single scratch on his hand; it was harder than any weapon Hu Feng had ever seen!

Chi…

Just as Sinful Left Hand thought he had struck a fatal blow, a cold light suddenly appeared before his eyes. In an instant, his limbs turned cold, and all the vital points on his body were shrouded in wisps of sharp Sword Qi. If the punch landed, Hu Feng, who had no time to dodge, would be severely injured if not killed. But pierced by this cold light, he himself would not escape death!

Since Cultivation to the Demi-god Realm, he had never encountered such a strong danger. He raised an eyebrow and saw a powerful one-armed Angel appear before him out of the corner of his eye, with a cold face and a sharp blade in hand containing a Fatal Strike.

A Sixteenth Step Holy Angel?

Sinful Left Hand was shocked in his heart. No matter how tough he was, he dared not clash head-on with the blade of a Holy Angel, so he quickly retreated.

At the critical moment, without Hu Feng’s order, the Holy Angel Taliana, who had been prepared, launched a decisive attack. After recovering seventy to eighty percent of her strength, the powerful Holy Angel’s might gradually revealed itself; her figure was elusive, forcing the sharp-attacking Sin City Lord to retreat step by step!

“Leave no one alive, kill!”

“Kill, kill them all!”

…

As soon as the City Lord Sinful Left Hand made his move, the soldiers who were ready to go charged forward frantically, attempting to kill Hu Feng and his group to the last one. The number was huge; in a short time, thousands of elite gathered, among whom were many Strongers who had cultivated to the Peak of the Holy Step. Unfortunately, although the number was large, they could not break through the defense line formed by the Tree Demon, Necromancer, and others.

The tall Tree Demon took the lead, unfolding the powerful Tree Demon Kingdom, bearing the brunt of most attacks. In the Void and under the ground, countless tough roots suddenly surged out, piercing into the soldiers’ bodies like bayonets, devouring their essence blood and life force. The Horror Knight Commander Baresa rode a tall Ghost Warhorse, roaming the edge of the Tree Demon Kingdom, killing fierce soldiers one by one; the Djinn Queen Cindy floated into the mid-air, using the Horror Knight Commander as the main body, raising her hand to summon Mirror Puppets one after another. The number increased, successfully attracting the soldiers’ attacks.

“Lord, do you want to summon the Witch Warriors?”

Witch Elder Natalia held an oak staff and watched the battle from the side. Seeing the Skeleton Legion outside the city retreating step by step, she frowned slightly.

“No, wait a bit longer!”

Watching the fierce battle between Sinful Left Hand and Holy Angel Taliana, Hu Feng looked calm and whispered a few instructions in Necromancer Badeson’s ear. The latter let out a ‘quack’ laugh, turned into a ball of phosphorescent fire, and rushed out of the Tree Demon’s Tree Demon Kingdom, floating up and down, then drilled into the Sinful Citizens’ Grand Formation and exploded with a ‘boom’. As long as they touched a trace of the green phosphorescent fire, the Sinful Citizens were quickly burned to ashes. The more people there were and the denser the formation, the greater the casualties!

“Seeking death!”

Looking at the elusive Necromancer, the City Lord Sinful Left Hand was furious. A Rune Chains suddenly appeared in his left hand, and with a ‘clatter’, he shook it out, emitting a trace of aura that sealed the heaven and earth. In an instant, Necromancer Badeson, whose figure was elusive, stiffened. His Soul Fluctuation was locked by a powerful aura, and he could only watch helplessly as the terrifying Rune Chains whistled over. Let alone dodging, it was even difficult to blink, and bean-sized cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

Chains of Sin!

In his great anger, Sinful Left Hand finally revealed this fearsome weapon. This chain, said to be able to trap even a Demon God, had boundless power. As long as one was bound by it, even a Necromancer as powerful as Badeson would be instantly annihilated! Since obtaining this treasure, he did not know how many Strongers had died at his hands.

Dong…

An ancient Altar suddenly appeared in front of Necromancer Badeson. The terrifying Rune Chains scraped across the Altar, bringing up sparks that made one’s scalp tingle. Then, like a python, it turned sharply and pounced at him again. Unfortunately, before it could get close, Necromancer Badeson was captured by a large hand from afar!

“Sin City, since you call yourselves Sinful Citizens and do not know when to retreat, then be completely destroyed!”

After saving the Necromancer and seeing that the time was about right, Hu Feng did not hesitate anymore. He spread his hands, and a massive Death Aura surged out. On the battlefield inside and outside the city, the fallen soldiers stood up one after another, swaying as they joined the battle.

Great Spirit Gathering Technique!

After breaking through to the Holy Step, Hu Feng’s Great Spirit Gathering Technique was even more defying the heavens; wherever the Death Aura reached, it became the world of the Undead.

In an instant, the Skeleton Legion, which had been pretending to be defeated, erupted completely, launching a fierce counterattack on the spot and quickly drowning the soldiers who rushed out of the city. In one go, they launched waves of siege battles higher than the last. Caught off guard, the soldiers on the wall suffered heavy casualties, and the soldiers surrounding the Tree Demon and others in the square were also demoralized. Watching their companions who had just died tragically launch cold attacks at them in the blink of an eye, endless fear emerged uncontrollably in their hearts.

Roar…

The Undead suddenly joining the battlefield made the Sinful Citizens’ scalps tingle, but this was just the beginning.

Following Hu Feng’s roar, a huge circular archway suddenly appeared in the air. Powerful Vampire Warriors, fast Harpy Witches, and Witch Warriors holding longbows… surged out. In an instant, it was like opening a gate to hell, making the Sinful Citizens’ hands and feet turn cold.
