Chapter 1002

There was wine, no food, but words.

Zi Chen learned about the details of the law riot. It was Cripple who blocked the attack for Sophie. As for the old man, he died without a complete corpse under the power of law.

Now, only the five of them were left in the Starting Ground. One had to know that there were more than ten people who had come here.

After learning that the others had all died in battle, Zi Chen sank into silence.

"When the mutation occurred, a loophole appeared in the law, and the demons took advantage of it to invade. They were the first batch of experts to arrive, but they were also the last batch. We also lost contact with the body cultivators and were unable to find reinforcements. We could only defend to the death."

Looking at the five people who were unafraid of death, Zi Chen's face was full of bitterness.

After drinking the wine in the pot in one gulp, Zi Chen asked, "Is there no other way?"

Cripple said, "There is no other way except to die in battle."

"We can't enter the ancient road of trials again." Zi Chen opened another pot of wine.

Cripple did not hesitate and said firmly, "Our duty is to guard this place and open a path for the trial takers. If we leave, this place will be completely overrun, and the trial takers who come in will only have one path: death."

"The major forces have already recalled their experts from the ancient road. Now, they are strictly restricting the Dan Primes of their clans from entering the trials. There is no point in you staying here," Zi Chen persuaded.

Sophie looked at Zi Chen and said, "We also feel that the number of trial takers has decreased recently, but there are still trial takers, right? If we leave, it will be greatly unfair to them."

Seeing the five people's determined expressions, Zi Chen knew that he could not persuade them to leave. He could only ask, "How can I help you?"

Cripple smiled and said, "You just have to help us kill the two demons who will come in tomorrow."

"Is there no way to solve this problem once and for all?" Zi Chen asked again.

Cripple smiled bitterly and said, "More than half of the entire Starting Ground has been occupied by the demons. Now, they are the masters of this place. However, if you really want to think of a way, there is one, and that is to drive all the demons out of the Starting Ground. Perhaps the power of law here can repair the loophole on its own."

Cripple continued, "But that's just wishful thinking. There are too many demons outside. It's not realistic to think that we can drive them out with just the few of us."

Zi Chen's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He asked, "What's wrong? Could it be that there are demons of the Earth Origin Stage outside?"

"How is that possible?"

Cripple glanced at Zi Chen and said, "Although there are some loopholes in the rules here, they're still in effect. The demons who enter here are all limited to the early stage of the Human Origin Realm."

Zi Chen nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. Leave it to me."

"You." Everyone looked at Zi Chen suspiciously.

Suo Fei said, "Zi Chen, it's not that we don't trust you. It's just that the Demon Tribe is too strong, and there are too many of them. No matter how strong you are, you are still a Jindan Essence expert. You will be exhausted to death. We are already like this. It doesn't matter if we die, but you still have a lot of room to grow."

A confident smile appeared on Zi Chen's face as he said, "If they can really exhaust me to death, I will have to admire them."

As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful aura appeared around Zi Chen's body.

"Human, Human Origin Stage? How is that possible?"

Sensing Zi Chen's Human Origin Stage aura, the five of them were shocked. However, this shock soon turned into ecstasy.

"Nothing is impossible. I just happened to come across a Human Origin Fruit outside, so I broke through after refining it."

"Human Origin Fruit!"

The five of them exclaimed. They had only heard of the Human Origin Fruit, but had never seen it. It was a miraculous fruit of heaven and earth. They all sighed at Zi Chen's luck.

Cripple laughed and said, "You're already very strong. Now that you've broken through, killing those of the same level will be as easy as stepping on ants. We believe that you can help us reclaim this place."

The others nodded. They were full of confidence in Zi Chen. Suo Fei reminded, "Zi Chen, you must remember to drive all the demons out. Don't let any Demon Qi come into contact with this place. Otherwise, we're worried that the rules won't be able to be fixed."

"Don't worry."

The next day, the six of them arrived at the edge of the plaza. Suo Fei pointed at the light shield in front of them and said, "This is where the demons invaded. Because of the rules, they can only break the light shield once a day. Two demons can enter at a time."

"Okay, I'll go out when they come in."

Zi Chen nodded and waited for the demons to break the light shield.

About an hour later, the light shield started to distort. The demons were attacking the light shield with great force, and the rules inside were also surging.

"Be careful, they're coming in," Suo Fei reminded.

About fifteen minutes later, a strong force broke the light shield. It only left a small hole, and three rays of black light came out.

"Three demons actually came in."

Seeing the three rays of black light, a cry of surprise came from the side. It seemed that the demons had made some progress in breaking the light shield.

The three rays of black light rushed out of the light shield. Before they could materialize, a strong gust of wind appeared. This gust of wind swept up the three rays of black light and rushed out of the light shield.

In a flash, the three rays of black light and Zi Chen disappeared.

Inside the light shield, Suo Fei and the others were nervous, hoping that Zi Chen would succeed.

In the outside world, the black mass of demons was constantly attacking the light barrier. The long period of attack caused the power of law here to become extremely unstable. In addition to the large area of the light barrier shrinking, the number of powerhouses they sent in was also slowly increasing.

Now, three were able to enter. It wouldn't be long before more powerhouses entered.

Suddenly, a strong gust of wind appeared out of nowhere. Under this strong gust of wind, the demons beside the light shield were blown away.

The three rays of black light appeared again, turning into three demonic figures. When the surrounding demons saw them, they were puzzled. One of them asked, "What's going on, Mosi? Didn't you guys go in?"

The demon named Mosi was also puzzled. He looked around and saw many demons staring at the three of them. He scratched his head and said, "I don't know. We just went in and encountered a gust of wind. When we reappeared, we were already here."

"Damned cunning human!" Seeing the self-repairing light barrier, all of the demons began to curse.

"Don't worry, there's still tomorrow. As long as we know who you are tomorrow." The demon who spoke was halfway through his words when he suddenly stared ahead.

The other demons turned around and saw a human standing in the sky.

"Human, it's actually a human." The demons rubbed their eyes and exclaimed.

"Human, how dare you come here? You're courting death."

"Die, human."

The demons closed in on Zi Chen. Mosi said coldly, "Human, the gust of wind just now should be your doing. Everything is your doing."

Zi Chen sneered, "It seems that demons aren't stupid despite their big bodies."

"Human, how dare you come here? You're courting death." With that, Mosi attacked Zi Chen.

He struck out with his palm. The pitch-black palm print surged with demonic energy, emitting a terrifying aura.

However, it was obviously unrealistic to kill Zi Chen with such an attack. The demon had completely underestimated Zi Chen. The sneer on Zi Chen's face turned into a dense killing intent.

A loud dragon roar resounded. Thousands of lightning bolts appeared. The Dragon Soul Spear flashed with an even stronger silver light and pierced towards the pitch-black palm.

"Pfft."

The attack formed by the pitch-black demonic energy was instantly shattered by the tip of the spear. At the same time, the tip of the spear pierced through the demon's palm. A surge of energy flowed through the palm and entered the demon's body.

After the lightning-fast attack, Zi Chen withdrew his spear. The demon in front of him took two steps back. His blood-red eyes were wide open and his face was filled with shock.

He pointed his finger at Zi Chen as if he wanted to say something. However, before he could say anything, his huge body immediately fell back and crashed onto the ground.

"Mosi is dead."

"Damn it, this human killed Mosi in one strike."

The other Devil Race members came to their senses and looked at Zi Chen in shock. To be able to kill Mortis with a single strike, Zi Chen's strength was obviously terrifying.

"Kill, kill this human."

"Everyone, attack!"

However, after the shock, the demons went berserk. Their eyes flashed with killing intent. The demonic energy around them began to surge. Then, they launched what they thought was their strongest attack at Zi Chen.

"Demon Swallows the World."

"Demon Swallows the World."

Divine abilities like Demon Swallows the World appeared continuously. Boundless pitch-black demonic energy pressed down on Zi Chen layer after layer.

In the originally pitch-black world, there was no trace of light. In addition, there were many attacks that passed through the pitch-black demonic energy and attacked Zi Chen.

"Boom!"

When the attacks landed on Zi Chen, his body actually exploded. However, the demons didn't rejoice because there wasn't a trace of flesh and blood in the explosion. In other words, it wasn't a body of flesh and blood.

Suddenly, one of the demons sensed a dangerous aura behind him. He instinctively turned around and saw the human from before. However, the human's eyes were glowing gold and silver. He held a power weapon in his hand, and there were two enormous skeletal wings on his back that surged with endless lightning.

"You!"

The demon spat out a single word. However, he couldn't say anything else after that.

The long spear pierced through his body, and endless lightning surged. His body, which was originally as black as ink, suddenly had lightning surging on it.

When the lightning spread to his entire body, his body instantly exploded.

After this explosion, more and more explosions were heard. Some were caused by the explosion of the Devil Race's power, while others were caused by the explosion of the Devil Race's body.

Zi Chen unfurled his lightning wings. His entire body was like a bolt of lightning that constantly flashed. However, every time the lightning flashed, it meant that a demon had died.

At this moment, the surrounding demons gathered, intending to launch a powerful close-range attack. However, one of them collided with Zi Chen's fist and was instantly blasted away by the rebounding force. The other demons' expressions changed drastically.

"Retreat, retreat!"

A slightly panicked voice rang out. The demons felt that they had encountered trouble. The human in front of them was very fast and his attack power was incomparably strong. Once a demon faced him, only death would await them.

"Use your demonic skills to attack!"

Shouted a demon. Then, they used their demonic skills. Unfortunately, their demonic skills weren't as miraculous as the demonic ape's. Zi Chen relied on his lightning speed to completely dodge.

"Swoosh."

Zi Chen flashed and appeared in front of another demon. This person was constantly giving orders. He should be the leader of the demons.
