Douluo: Phoenix God Descends, Emperor Flame Burns the Sky

Chapter 556 Crushing the Demon King, Riding Zi Ji Again
A dense, dark mass of soul beasts, like a swarm of ants, completely surrounded Wusheng Pass, a formidable pass on the border of the Star Luo Empire.

A colossal tree, hundreds of meters tall and nearly a hundred meters in diameter, its entire body a deep green with dense, dark brown, eye-like patterns, is taking root in front of Wusheng Pass.

It was none other than the true form of the Demon King.

Demonic Tree with Evil Eyes.

Around the Demon King, there were several enormous tree-men, half its size but equally massive, with two blood-red markings on their trunks, staring menacingly at Wusheng Pass.

Countless ferocious soul beasts followed the treant like soldiers following a giant siege engine.

above the sky.

A long, lithe purple dragon was coiled around, its cold pupils fixed on the guards on the city wall.

The Demonic Dragon King of Hell, Zi Ji!

Behind her was an endless tide of flying soul beasts, like a hornet's nest that had been disturbed, swarming in groups.

In terms of sheer scale, the Star Luo Empire faced a far more spectacular sight than the Heaven Dou Empire.

It seems that the ferocious beasts clearly know that the Star Luo Empire is stronger than the Heaven Dou Empire. As for who provided this information, that is quite intriguing.

"hiss--"

The Demon King let out a roar, and its two thick branches, like arms, slammed into the ground, causing the entire ground to tremble and stirring up a large amount of dust.

As if receiving some kind of command, the treants around him surged toward Wusheng Pass, while countless soul beasts followed behind the giant treants, using them as cover.

Compared to Xiong Jun's chaotic state.

The Demon King's side is even more difficult to deal with.

Although the Star Luo Empire was wary of the Spirit Empire, it still dispatched elite troops to block the advance of the spirit beasts.

Although the general guarding the city wall felt a little uneasy looking at the ferocious soul beast in front of him, he was still able to remain calm and composed.

Upon seeing that the leader was a gigantic demonic tree, and that a demonic dragon soared in the sky, the guard spoke coldly:
"Fire attack!"

"Fire arrows!"

Fire-attribute Soul Masters in the army immediately imbued their arrows with flames. At the same time, support-type Soul Masters began chanting, and as the amplified light shone on the soldiers, their arrows became even more powerful.

Meanwhile, the wind-attribute soul masters also unleashed their soul skills, using the wind to fuel the fire, and the howling wind made the flames blaze even brighter.

Rockets filled the sky, carrying raging flames that converged into a sea of ​​fire, shooting towards the treant and the soul beast like a tidal wave.

however.

A hint of disdain flashed in the eyes of the Demon King. He suddenly rose into the air, his two thick roots sweeping across the sky like arms, instantly knocking down a large portion of the arrows. The flames on those arrows did not harm him at all.

Behind those giant treants appeared water-attribute soul beasts, unleashing barrages of water-attribute attacks that met the rockets. Flames collided with water, sending large amounts of water vapor rising between heaven and earth.

Some rockets did manage to pierce through the gaps and strike the tree-man, but they only burned for a moment before going out.

These tree-men seem to be able to control the moisture on their bodies, so that the flames cannot burn for long within the small area hit by arrows.

As for the heavens.

Murasaki even revealed a mocking smile.

"Heavenly Demon Domain!"

A massive surge of Yin Water energy erupted, transforming into a Yin Water domain resembling a swamp. All the arrows that shot towards it were swallowed up and silently annihilated, like stones sinking into the sea.

"kill!"

At Murasaki's command.

Behind them, a dense swarm of flying spirit beasts, like locusts, flew over the city walls and headed into the city.

The most outrageous thing is that many huge flying spirit beasts, and even some spirit beasts that do not have the ability to fly, rushed into the city walls.

They attacked the Xingluo garrison from both inside and outside.

Although it was just a very simple military strategy, its application to the beast tide was so chilling.

Perhaps. What Xiong Jun led could also be called a beast tide.

However, the soul beasts led by Zi Ji and the Demon King were no different from a soul beast army.

The discipline was somewhat chaotic, but the individual strength of the soul beasts made up for it.

The Star Luo soldiers were well-trained, and the Soul Masters stationed in the army were also highly coordinated. However, when faced with the ferocious beasts, they soon found themselves covered in blood and engaged in a brutal battle.

But at this time.

Skyrim.

A crimson figure approached from afar, and in just a moment, it transformed from a small red dot into a more clearly defined silhouette.

In the blink of an eye, they had arrived on the battlefield.

The newcomer did not conceal his powerful aura.

Both Zi Ji and the Demon King had solemn expressions and looked at that person in unison.

A hint of confusion flashed in the eyes of the Demon King.

Murasaki was extremely shocked.

At the same time, not knowing what he was thinking, he lowered his head somewhat guiltily.

Lin Xiao stood still in the air.

He commanded the Demon King and Zi Ji in an unquestionable tone:

"Leave now, I won't make things difficult for you."

The Demon King narrowed his eyes; his mind was the most insidious. His massive root system had already silently surrounded Lin Xiao, but he said aloud:
"May I ask who is coming?"

Lin Xiao chuckled.

Under his mental probing, the Demon King's petty thoughts were laid bare.

"Fourth Soul Skill - Blazing Feather Sky-Burning Strike!"

Countless feather-like flames shot towards the ground like arrows, piercing through the earth and embedding themselves in the roots where the Demon King lay dormant.

The ultimate phoenix fire erupted.

The Demon King's massive body suddenly began to convulse, emitting a heart-wrenching scream.

Lin Xiao showed no mercy. With a wave of his hand, endless pale flames surrounded the Demon King.

"Eighth Soul Skill - Pale Hell!"

The Demon King could sense that its roots were rapidly freezing, but this was not due to the power of ice, but rather because its heat was being rapidly stripped away.

Its vitality is also rapidly disappearing...

What a bizarre power!

An unprecedented fear filled the heart of the Demon King.

What ultimately broke him was that Lin Xiao's flames could transform into a completely black phoenix fire, which clung to him like a leech and spread rapidly.

Fire is the nemesis of wood.

The reason why the fire-attribute soul masters among the Star Luo Guards could not restrain the Demon King was because the difference in bloodline and soul power between the two was too great.

But Lin Xiao's flames have evolved continuously, surpassing the Demon King by an unknown number of levels!
For him.

It was like an ancestor beating his grandson; the Demon King was beaten so badly that he was powerless to fight back and couldn't even unleash his full power!
Seeing this, Murasaki wanted to save the day.

"The Phoenix Soars Through the Nine Heavens!"

But in the next instant, Lin Xiao flashed behind her, skillfully mounted her, and commanded without a doubt:
"Come with me into the city."

"Get those soul beasts out of here!"
