My Beast Is the 12-Winged Angel Chapter 484 - 485: Yuan’s Goal!
Previously on My Beast Is the 12-Winged Angel...
The Core of the Demon Realm.
Demon God Abyss felt the surging auras emanating from Liu Li and her companions. At first, he was stunned.
That shock quickly transformed into white-hot fury.
In his eyes, these three were nothing more than puppets under that human’s control.
They had merely triggered the Divine Positions buried within them to artificially boost their strength to the Divine Level.
And now, they dared to believe such borrowed power made them his equals?
“Boom——!!”
Violent Demonic Qi exploded outward as Demon God Abyss lost his patience. He was completely incensed.
No longer content to lurk in the shadows, he revealed himself.
His massive form, standing over a hundred meters tall, stepped forward, emerging from his domain of absolute darkness.
“A lingering worm and three witless beasts.”
Yuan’s divine sense swept across Gu Xing, Long Qingyan, and Feng Ni with cold contempt.
“Do you truly believe you are worthy of standing in my presence?”
The moment the words left his mouth, he launched a sudden assault.
There was no warning at all.
Demon God Abyss simply extended his right arm, which was encased in jagged, savage armor.
He aimed his open palm at the area where the six stood, spreading his five fingers wide before...
Slowly curling them into a tight fist.
“Buzz——!”
An oppressive weight instantly fell upon the group. It was an indescribable sensation.
It wasn't that the air had thickened; rather, the very fabric of space had become heavy and rigid.
With a single hand gesture, the entire space surrounding Gu Xing and the others was locked down tight.
Simultaneously.
The sea of Demonic Qi churning below began to boil violently.
Myriad tentacles, forged from condensed Demonic Qi, rose up. Like living predators, they slithered out from every corner and even through the cracks of the Void.
Laden with every imaginable negative attribute, they lunged savagely toward the six.
This was the Demon God’s most primal application of Demonic Qi. It lacked elegance, yet it possessed a raw power capable of crushing anything in its path.
“Hmph!”
Long Qingyan was the first to react.
Faced with the constricting space and the incoming swarm of Demonic Qi, her stunning features remained calm.
However, deep within her golden dragon eyes, a light as hot as molten magma ignited.
She chose not to retreat or take a defensive stance. Instead, she took a bold step forward.
“Law Body.”
The icy command fell from her lips.
In the blink of an eye, with her slender frame as the epicenter, countless threads of light—each possessing a unique aura and color—manifested out of thin air!
Flame, frost, earth, space...
Thousands of these elemental threads poured into her like rivers feeding a vast ocean!
Her aura began to expand at a frightening pace!
Faint dragon scales started to surface beneath her skin. They weren't just gold; they shimmered with a kaleidoscopic brilliance.
Her silhouette blurred, appearing to merge with the turbulent sea of laws surrounding her.
Assimilating a multitude of laws into herself—this was her unique Dao.
By using the peerless physique of the Dragon Race as a furnace, she could forcibly contain and manipulate countless laws, turning external forces into her own raw power!
“Break!”
Long Qingyan pressed her fingers together into a sword-sign, thrusting them toward the invisible but stubborn spatial barrier.
Where her finger touched, the space groaned under the immense pressure she exerted.
The invisible shackles were violently punctured. As the numerous dark tentacles struck her body, they buckled and disintegrated, as if they had slammed into a white-hot iron plate.
“A curious little trick.”
A glimmer of surprise flashed in the eyes of Demon God Abyss.
Even if Long Qingyan’s current power didn't quite match that old eel, she wasn't far behind.
Still, if she thought this level of strength was enough to challenge him...
She was far too naive!
Demon God Abyss increased his pressure, and the hole she had made vanished instantly.
A moment later, even more intense spatial crushing force and terrifying magical tentacles lashed out. Under this overwhelming power, Long Qingyan was forced back step by step.
While both sides were at the Divine Level, there was a clear hierarchy of power.
The Demon God undoubtedly sat at the very peak of the Divine Level echelon. And Long Qingyan was fighting alone.
“Destroy!”
Liu Li’s calm voice cut through the chaos.
She lifted the Sword of Destruction and delivered a gentle horizontal slash.
The space that had imprisoned them shattered like glass.
Seeing this, Demon God Abyss’s expression finally grew solemn.
Long Qingyan and Feng Ni weren't a real threat to him. His focus had always been on those holding the Divine Positions—Liu Li, Vera, and the others.
His eyes shifted toward Gu Xing’s position, and his pupils suddenly narrowed.
Wait!
Why were there only three of them there?
Where did that Ghost Race go?!
Exactly when had that Ghost Race vanished?
This was, naturally, Gu Xing’s plan. From the moment Long Qingyan clashed with the Demon God, Gu Xing had realized the truth.
This fight depended entirely on him and his three Guardian Beasts.
The power gap between Long Qingyan and the Demon God was too wide. Therefore, when Liu Li moved to strike, he had signaled Qing Shuang to slip into the Void.
Now that Qing Shuang possessed a Divine Position, her previous weaknesses were gone. She could now perfectly integrate herself into the Void.
Furthermore, with the Divine Position’s protection, she was undetectable even to the Demon God as long as she stayed still.
Gu Xing’s order to Qing Shuang was simple: wait for the perfect moment for a killing blow.
Given her skill set, Qing Shuang was a high-burst Guardian Beast. Forcing her into a frontal confrontation with the Demon God would be a total waste of her talents.
However, with Qing Shuang out of the main fray, the full weight of the battle fell on Liu Li and Vera.
Confronted by the waves of attacking tentacles, Vera began to channel the Life Energy within her.
In an instant, a tide of vines began to manifest in front of her.
They surged forward, entangling with the Demon God’s magical tentacles. Because of their devouring nature, Vera’s life vines could suck the power right out of the Demon God’s attacks to strengthen themselves.
Though she was still slightly weaker than Yuan, she managed to completely halt the advance of the dark vines.
As for Feng Ni, she hovered silently by Gu Xing’s side. Her body was a mix of Spiritual Power and Demonic Qi. This made it difficult for her attacks to truly hurt Demon God Abyss.
As the supreme being of the Demon Abyss, he was immune to the Demonic Qi attacks of other demons. Thus, Feng Ni’s main job was to act as Gu Xing’s shield.
Seeing his initial attacks thwarted by Liu Li and Vera, Demon God Abyss didn't seem rushed to use new techniques. He simply maintained the current stalemate.
As the seconds ticked by, Gu Xing began to feel uneasy.
Demon God Abyss didn't seem to be trying his hardest; it felt more like he was stalling.
Why would he want to waste time?
Gu Xing’s eyes scanned the dark horizon ahead. His body suddenly went cold.
He realized the Demon God’s true intent. He was stalling because he was waiting for the other Demon Gods to arrive!
“Damn it!”
“We can’t let this drag on.”
Against one Demon God, they had a fighting chance. But if a second one appeared...
Victory would be impossible.
They had to break through the Demon Realm Core immediately.
“Senior Qingyan, Liu Li, give it everything you’ve got!”
“Vera will support you!”
