Throne of Seals: The God of Magic Descends, the Demonic Tide Breaks at Dawn

Chapter 93 A Grand Escape Under the Sunlight
"That's enough, we should go."

Lin Ye looked around and was very satisfied with his and Cai'er's masterpiece.

"Hmm, I feel that aura is getting closer and closer!" Cai'er gripped the Grim Reaper's scythe tightly, looking around warily.

"Waiting... It's not the aura of a demon god!" A look of joy suddenly appeared on Lin Ye's face.
"Let's try to lure all the demons from these city lords' mansions over here, and then bury them!"

Cai'er nodded, her eyes sparkling.

A pale golden magical aura swirled around Lin Ye's fingertips as he frowned slightly and gazed southeast.

The soil of the abandoned farmland trembled continuously at his feet, and a dark aura surged in like a tide.

The demon guards hadn't been completely concealed during the clearing out, and the demons in the city lord's mansion had clearly pinpointed their location.

"There are at least fifteen, three of whom have reached the seventh level of aura."

Cai'er gripped the gray-purple Grim Reaper's scythe tightly; the blade gleamed coldly in the moonlight.

Her toes touched the withered rice stalks, and her figure slid westward like a shadow close to the ground.

"The terrain of Broken Soul Cliff is perfect for trapping turtles in a jar."

The moment Lin Ye nodded, three golden orbs of light condensed in his palm.

He flicked his finger, and the ball of light flew like a shooting star toward the pile of rocks at the edge of the farmland, exploding silently upon landing.

These magical marks allowed him to perceive the precise movements of the demons within a three-mile radius, like laying out an invisible tracking net.

When the first roar of the demons came from the east, Cai'er had already set up seven footholds on the top of the Broken Soul Cliff.

She used her sickle to carve half-inch deep marks on the rock, and the gray-purple sickle blade seemed to slice the night wind into pieces wherever it swept across.

Lin Ye stood under the crooked tree on the edge of the cliff, his right hand lightly touching the air.

As he chanted the incantation in a low voice, a faint light gradually emanated from the void.

The tip of the Sun and Moon Staff emerged first, and the Sun and Moon Stone at the top lit up with a dual light of emerald green and deep blue the moment it touched the air.

"The footsteps became disordered; they were splitting up to encircle us."

Lin Ye held the staff horizontally in front of his chest, and the natural patterns on the staff gradually emerged as magic was poured in. "I'll leave the seven on the left wing to you, and I'll handle the eight on the right wing."

Before the words were even finished, the demon guards at the front had already smashed through the bushes and charged forward.

It's a fifth-tier Bull Demon!

The creature's fangs were still stained with dark red blood, but it froze the moment it saw the figure at the edge of the cliff.

Cai'er's scythe was pressed against his throat, and the grayish-purple blade even reflected his terrified pupils.

With a soft "plop," blood splattered onto the cliff face as Lin Ye swung his Sun and Moon Staff in a semi-circle.

The gem at the tip of the staff suddenly shone with golden light, and a golden chain materialized in the air, wrapping around the three demons charging at the forefront as if it were alive.

He slammed his staff into the ground, the chains tightened, and the demon was dragged towards the magical trap at the edge of the cliff.

Cai'er's figure appeared and disappeared among the demons, her gray-purple scythe whistling with death with each swing.

She leaped up, stepping on the shoulder of one demon, and her scythe cleaved open the chest of another demon from below. Green demon blood arced through the air, but she dodged it by spinning around, without even a speck of dirt getting on her hair.

Lin Ye raised the Sun and Moon Staff high above his head, and the Sun and Moon Stone at the end of the staff suddenly burst out with dazzling light.

With a flick of his wrist, countless elements condensed into a rain of ice spikes, precisely piercing through the four demons who were attempting to flank him.

The crisp sound of ice spikes piercing magic cores echoed one after another. He even had the leisure to shout in Cai'er's direction, "Leave one alive to ask the city lord's mansion about the defenses!"

Upon hearing this, Cai'er spun around, her scythe gently hooking the knee of the last demon captain. The instant he staggered and fell to his knees, she leaped up, stepping on his back. Her grey-purple scythe light drew a perfect closed loop in the air, slicing the other two demons who tried to come to his aid in half at the waist.

With a "crack" sound, Lin Ye used the end of the Sun and Moon Staff to smash the knee of the demon soldier captain.

The moonlight at the tip of the staff suddenly tightened, forming a transparent energy shield that trapped it inside.

As he bent down, he saw Cai'er use her scythe to lift the bronze badge from the demon captain's waist; the lion's head emblem on it was stained red with blood. A dull thud came from the bottom of the cliff as something heavy fell to the ground.

Cai'er kicked the last demon corpse off the cliff. As she turned around, she spun the scythe in her palm, and a gray-purple halo swept across the ground, swallowing up the scattered bone fragments and bloodstains.

Lin Ye then raised the Sun and Moon Staff, and the golden flames that gathered at the tip of the staff spread as if they were alive, burning the demon captain in the energy shield to ashes along with his screams.

“There’s some unusual activity coming from the other side of Andu Province.” Cai’er suddenly touched Lin Ye’s shoulder lightly, her scythe pointing northwest. “It seems like a patrol has been drawn here by the explosion.”

Lin Ye grabbed her wrist with his other hand, and the Sun and Moon Staff automatically retracted into his storage bag.

A mysterious silver glow emanated from his fingertips as he drew a teleportation mark beneath their feet: "Since we're on the way, let's clean up the mess too."

The moment the mark lit up, the last trace of bloody smell was swept away by the cliff wind.

The distant sound of horns from the city lord's mansion could be faintly heard, but no further clues could be found to follow the trail.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Eligo, the Serpent Spear Demon God stationed at the Lord's Mansion in Andu Province, stood up angrily after hearing his subordinate's report.

He suddenly clenched the wine glass in his hand and crushed it. The scarlet wine dripped through his fingers onto the obsidian floor tiles of the city lord's mansion, where it strangely condensed into three broken runes.

"Three elite guard squads wiped out within three minutes?"

Eligo's serpentine pupils contracted into vertical slits, and the already shattered wine glass was instantly corroded to nothing by the power of darkness!

He transformed into a black shadow and rushed out of the council hall. The demon guards along the way didn't even have time to kneel down before they were shocked by the dark aura emanating from him and coughed up black blood.

The scorched earth at the bottom of the Cliff of Broken Souls still emitted residual heat. Eligo's snake tongue licked the remaining magical residue on the cliff wall, and the pale golden halo made him let out a grating sneer.

"Human scent... Damn demon hunters!"

He used the tip of his spear to pick up half of the unburnt demon skeleton. The marks on the bone were of varying depths, clearly indicating that it had been forcibly crushed by some kind of energy.

The rocks on the cliff edge bear scorch marks from the teleportation magic, and the outlines of the runes are still faintly visible.

"Search! Dig three feet into the ground!"

Eligo's snake tail lashed out at the crooked tree beside him, snapping the thick trunk instantly.

His snake spear suddenly pierced the ground, and the scales on the spear shaft abruptly opened, releasing thousands of tiny snake shadows.

These shadowy figures can track the presence of any living creature within a ten-mile radius.

However, just as the snake's shadow dispersed into the air, it was suddenly swept up into black mist by a strong gust of wind.

Eligo looked up and saw a faint glow of a teleportation mark remaining on the horizon. Those silver particles of light flickered mockingly before finally dissipating into the clouds.

"Damn humans!!"

He gritted his teeth, and the snake spear carved three deep grooves in the ground. The pebbles lifted by the spear tip were crushed into dust by the dark energy.

His furious roar echoed through the valley, but it only startled a few frightened night birds, and he couldn't even hold onto a single piece of clothing.

"I will tear you to pieces!"
