Dream Travel

Chapter 278 He might also have a problem.

The faces of the burning demon cultists were contorted; the 'flames' burning on their bodies were not normal fire, but invisible to the naked eye.

Those flames weren't burning their bodies, but their souls?

When Bai Mu thought about the characteristics of demons, this was what came to mind.

The burning demon cultists became a kind of fuel, and the power generated by the flames converged towards the demon of light and shadow.

The power gathered from the past did not merge into the demonic phantom, but was instead ejected.

The Dream Erosion attribute of the condensed state weapon after its sublimation is taking effect. This Dream Erosion weapon, which has a 'stabilizing' effect, fixes the state of the demonic phantom, preventing it from drawing power from the outside.

The enraged demonic phantom also became aware of the problem.

He was killed by Bai Mu in the same way last time, and he will be eliminated by Bai Mu in the same way this time.

The Demon of Light and Shadow was extremely unwilling. Since he could not gather the power, he simply concentrated the two powers on a demon cultist.

The other one had its soul and flesh completely burned away.

“My servant…kill him, and I will personally perform the demonic transformation for you; you will become a new primal demon…”

Unwilling to leave the stage, Luxembla was making empty promises to the demon followers.

After leaving behind this message, his phantom was completely smashed by the weapon box by the white curtain.

This phantom can ignore many attacks, but once its state is fixed, the other attacks from the white curtain can take effect.

Moreover, after smashing the weapon box, Bai Mu captured a few fragments of mental energy.

The quantity is half that of the last time, but this part of the spirit fragments can be fused with the part of the demon spirit fragments in the weapon box.

They were originally the same thing, and when they came into contact, they naturally merged together.

The demonic phantom retreated, and the wisp of power that had been constantly entangled with the white curtain dissipated.

Without the influence of that unknown force, Bai Mu had an easier time. These two demon followers were not weak, but due to that inexplicable force, Bai Mu could not stay in one place for long.

Now that this problem is solved, the remaining demon cultist is... um?

Bai Mu looked at the demon cultist who had undergone a dramatic change with astonishment.

This creature's body swelled to over two meters tall, with incomplete demon horns growing from its head, and it was surrounded by intense shadow power.

The white curtain noticed the unusual brilliance in the sky, resembling the aurora borealis.

The military in Rota City immediately sprang into action.

However, the personnel involved in this operation were not ordinary soldiers, but a demon-hunting unit!

During the last demon invasion, the demon-hunting force did not deploy many people. At that time, a large number of demons appeared, but they did not violate the city's defense agreement.

Therefore, the entire demon-hunting force does not need to be deployed; most of the personnel are on guard against potentially ruthless individuals.

If no formidable opponents appear, the Demon Hunter Squad is a precautionary measure; any incidents that do occur can be handled by the regular army. If a formidable opponent does appear, then it's time for the Demon Hunter Squad to step in.

This time, something has appeared in Rota that could trigger the city's defense agreement.

Bai Mu looked at the person who had become a demon, a slight smirk playing on his lips. He was itching to test the demon's true nature...

The pendant he was carrying was heating up, meaning that this demon cultist was now not much different from a real demon.

Moreover, the power emanating from this ornament caused a faint layer of white flames to cover the bodies of the demon cultists.

Before the White Curtain could make a move, the demon followers were attacked by long-range snipers, whose power was immense.

A burst of blood erupted from the demon that could violate the city's defense agreement, and a portion of the shadow power entwined around it was also shattered.

The power emanating from the exorcism pendant seeped in through the shattered shadow protection, and the burning pale white flames acted on the demon cultists.

"Ah—Damn it!!" The demon cultist tried to extinguish the flames burning on his body, his mind twisted as he stared at the white screen.

He was misled by the words of the demon of light and shadow, Luxembla.

Becoming a primal demon means not only gaining immense power but also a much longer lifespan, and unlike now, not having your life and death at the mercy of primal demons.

If he can kill the White Curtain, he can become a primal demon. Now, the power granted to him by the Light and Shadow Demon has given him a trial version of the primal demon's power!
The White Curtain must die!

"Roar!" the demon cultist roared, and to Bai Mu's surprise, he pulled out a pistol, which seemed tiny compared to his size.

However, with the infusion of demonic power, the pistol underwent a change in form.

The primal demon, who was about to fire, twitched his shoulder, and the second sniper shot hit him.

However, with the protection of shadow power, the extremely powerful sniping was not very effective against the demon cultists.

"Hahahaha, die!" The demon cultist fired at the white curtain, the bullets imbued with shadow power.

Bai Mu swung the weapon case to block slightly, but the Shadow Explosion blasted him back, leaving the weapon case covered in a layer of swirling shadow power.

He slightly discharged the power from the weapon case, dissolving the portion of the shadow energy, and then took out the Dream Eater Greatsword from the weapon case.

The figure moved nimbly towards the demon cultist, its weapon crackling with lightning as it slashed down. "Weak human!" The shadowy power surrounding the demon cultist deflected the white curtain's attack.

In his view, only the lightning released by the White Curtain posed a threat; as for the exaggerated power he had displayed not long ago, it was now insignificant after he obtained the power of the primordial demon.

Now, the White Curtain's attacks can't even break through his Shadow Barrier, so how can they threaten him!
Such power is simply invincible, and the power of the primordial demon is growing stronger over time.

In the darkness, the demon cultist sensed a multitude of terrified souls, which he found particularly delicious.

As long as the fighting starts here, it seems that he doesn't need Lexenberg to personally oversee the transformation; he can naturally transform into a true primal demon.

For Bai Mu, this demon cultist had indeed become quite troublesome, mainly because the demon hunters were moving too fast, making it difficult for him to use his Golden Eye at this time.

Furthermore, the demon cultists have already violated the city's defense agreement. If he were to kill them directly, wouldn't that mean he's in the wrong?
Therefore, the white screen seemed to be struggling a little.

After the lightning on the Dream Eater Greatsword was crushed by the demon cultists, the weapon was covered with a layer of pale white flames.

The power emanating from the exorcising ornament caused the shadow protection on the demon cultist to dissipate rapidly upon contact with the light.

While the demon cultist was stunned, Bai Mu slashed his sword into the demon cultist's chest, leaving a deep, bone-revealing wound on the rough skin.

Pale white flames ignited along the wound, causing the demon cultist to cry out in pain, but the flames were quickly extinguished by the surging demonic power.

Even if a power can restrain a demon, it is not very effective when the demon's power is stronger.

Taking advantage of the air raid, under the watchful eyes of the demon cultists, Bai Mu applied a bottle of holy oil to the Dream Eater Greatsword.

This scene not only failed to frighten the demon followers, but instead made them burst into wild laughter. Bai Mu's behavior undoubtedly showed that he regarded him as a real demon!

"I am the demon, hahahaha! I am the demon!" The demon follower laughed maniacally, but then realized something was wrong; he suddenly felt powerless.

The surging power inexplicably weakened, and a strong sense of emptiness arose, causing the demon cultist to panic: "Wait, this isn't right, my power... Ah, I need more souls!!"

The intense hunger made the demon cultist even more frenzied. After several unsuccessful attempts to take down the white curtain, he decisively changed his target.

They planned to attack the residents to obtain souls to fill their own emptiness.

The aurora-like distortions appearing above the city were caused by the distortions of the demon.

The white curtain noticed that the demon cultist had slowed down.

He didn't even notice him approaching before he slammed the box to the ground.

The fallen demon cultist roared and fired his pistol repeatedly at the white screen.

The model of the pistol could not be determined due to the influence of the demonic power, but Bai Mu was certain that the pistol no longer needed ordinary ammunition.

The shadow bullets fired are extremely powerful, each one like a hand grenade.

The weapon crates that had been shielding him from the attack were hit and trembled violently. He was forced to stagger backward by the powerful bullets.

"Stop looking, hurry up and deal with that temporary demon."

"He's hiding his strength," the sniper, weapon mounted and staring at the white screen, said through the communicator.

The demon was after the white curtain, and that young man might also be involved...

"That's his own business. Don't waste time. This is the Upper District!"

Demons shouldn't be in the upper city, at least not the kind that can trigger city defense protocols and carry out terrorist attacks.

So even if Bai Mu was hiding his true strength, that was no reason for them to remain indifferent.

Their mission was to get rid of this demon quickly.

The demon hunters initially thought the demon that appeared was some kind of powerful primal demon.

But upon arriving at the scene, they discovered that he was just an unlucky guy controlled by a demon.

The opponent appears very strong, even possessing power similar to that of a primordial demon, but in reality, they are at their last gasp.

The power displayed by demon cultists is entirely generated by burning their own souls.

If he had managed to seize another soul, he could have maintained his position for a while longer, but this demon cultist was entangled by the white curtain.

They were unable to kill ordinary people and obtain their souls immediately, nor were they able to directly destroy the White Curtain.

The result is that it starts to wilt in less than a minute.

In short, he was just a victim with power but no substance.

It can only trigger the city defense protocol, and even the suppression of the city defense protocol cannot be fully activated.

"Understood." The sniper reached out and adjusted the weapon's output mode.

He had already tested the strength of the demon cultist with those two shots; this next shot would surely kill him!
