Jiang Chen chuckled. He felt pretty strong! Sweeping through everything with ease, this is quite interesting.
Regrettably, Fiendish Slash required gathering Energy to activate; the more Energy, the more powerful it would be. Fiendish Slash had no multi-stage attacks. Throughout its sweeping path, any enemy that encountered it would swiftly disappear, not even leaving a corpse behind.
Jiang Chen, wielding his longsword, exclaimed, "Charge in..."
"Kill..."
"Charge..."
Lisa, seeing the massive city walls destroyed, gasped internally. Is this really a Second-stage Swordsman? Such terrifying Attack Power, almost on par with Fifth-stage Sorcerers!
Jiang City was the first one to enter the city walls.
Inside the city walls, numerous members of the Elf Race launched attacks at him.
At Jiang Chen's thought, thirty thousand Sword Auras struck out swiftly.
[Experience +200]
[Experience +300]
[Experience +400]
...
The Elf Race's Archers were strong, but still no match for Jiang Chen. Thirty thousand Sword Auras rampaged through the city, identifying and swiftly killing the invading Demons.
Everywhere he passed, the ground was littered with corpses as he slaughtered his way through... Even the Giant Dragons in the sky perished under his sword.
Lisa jumped down from the Flying Dragon.
She hadn't expected that reclaiming a city could be so simple. Just a few minutes had passed, and all the Demons were cleanly slain. Such capability was unrivaled.
Lisa bowed her head in thanks. "Thank you, you're too strong."
"It's nothing, just to gain experience."
"I will report this to Mother. She will surely reward you."
Jiang Chen smiled but said nothing. A Mythical Set for my brother.
Jiang Chen asked, "What's our next move?"
"I will establish a Teleportation Array and have Mother send soldiers to hold the city. Then, we'll go to the other besieged cities and eliminate all the Demons. Once we reclaim all the cities, we can counterattack, enter the Different Worlds, find the Spiritual Pearl, and reseal the passage."
Jiang Chen nodded. It was quite clear that after witnessing his capabilities, Lisa was prepared to make the most of them.
Jiang Chen's ability to detect Parasitic Beasts made him a formidable asset to her. Reclaiming the other cities would depend on Jiang Chen. With his abilities, he could indeed achieve this.
Jiang Chen checked his experience points.
Still a bit low! I've only killed twenty thousand, gaining just a few million experience points. Leveling up now requires ten million experience points. When the hell will this slaughter end?
However, going to the Different Worlds did provide him an opportunity.
Jiang Chen suggested with a smile, "Let's head straight to the rift then, and cut off their assault. That way, we'll sever their retreat."
Lisa exclaimed, "Directly to the rift?"
"Yes, the rift is still open, isn't it?"
Lisa nodded. "Yes, but there are many Demons there, especially powerful ones—at least several hundred thousand."
"Only several hundred thousand."
Lisa's mouth twitched as she discerned Jiang Chen's implication. What do you mean 'only' several hundred thousand? That's already a huge number, okay? They are all powerful Demons standing over ten meters tall; these Demons are terrifying. Do you find that too few? Lisa looked skeptical. Are you here to gain experience, or to protect the Elven World?
"Then let's head for the rift and cut off their retreat completely. This will not only keep them from returning to their Different Worlds but also prevent them from invading the Elven World again," he declared.
Lisa nodded. "Okay."
"I will contact Mother right away and have her send warriors over."
Send more warriors over? I'm enough on my own. Wouldn't they just be sharing experience points? With such a good opportunity, how could I let it go to someone else!
"I'm enough by myself; there's no need to send warriors," Jiang Chen stated.
"Just one person?"
"Yes, several hundred thousand Demons from the Different Evil World still aren't enough for me to kill. Hurry up and take me there; I'm still waiting to level up. I'm only at Level 100. It's not like you all; when you kill a monster, your experience gain is higher than mine."
"It's all the same."
The same, my ass! One day, when I become a God, I must change this outcome. It's like I'm a laborer, working myself to death all day only to earn a pitiful amount of experience, while the Divine Race are like high-level white-collar workers. As for the Son of God, that's the white-collar of white-collars. The difference isn't just big; it's huge!
Lisa started to have people set up the Teleportation Array. Soon, warriors were dispatched from the palace to guard it, while Lisa led Jiang Chen and the seven others toward the rift.
「City of Blazing Light.」
A massive city, with the rift right at its center. Originally, one hundred thousand Elf Race warriors were stationed here, protecting the entire Seal. But now, all one hundred thousand of them had become hosts for the Parasitic Beasts.
The city seemed to have been occupied overnight. No one knew why.
The first thing the invaders did upon arrival was destroy the Teleportation Array. This meant the only way to reach the City of Blazing Light, also built atop a mountain, was by traveling overland.
There were only two ways to enter the City of Blazing Light: fly in, or take the bridge that led up the mountain from its base.
The City of Blazing Light was enveloped in a shimmering light. Lisa explained, "This is a Protective Shield formed by a Magical Array. It's a Barrier created simultaneously by five thousand Elves. The defensive power of the City of Blazing Light is very strong. Only masters above the Sixth-stage using powerful Magic could completely break through it."
"Can't we just break through forcefully?"
Lisa shook her head. "We can't. This is an Energy shield, impossible to break through unless the entire Magical Array is destroyed from the inside."
"Why didn't Caesar City, which we attacked, have one?"
"There was one, but it was destroyed, so they couldn't establish a magical Barrier. But the one in the City of Blazing Light wasn't damaged. Overnight, a hundred thousand of the Elf Race there turned into puppets."
"So... this is going to be a tough fight."
At that moment, several Flying Dragons circled in the sky, clearly scouting. Luckily, the group was hidden in the dense woods on the mountainside, which kept them from being discovered.
But they had no clear route for attack. Charge up and take the hits? The key is, we can't withstand it!
Alice, observing a river that surrounded the City of Blazing Light, asked, "What if we attack from underground? There should be passages under the City of Blazing Light, right?"
Jiang Chen examined the map; a river encircled the mountain. This could work. We can't break through from the air, but maybe we can attack from underground.
Lisa shook her head. "Impossible. The Barrier extends five hundred meters underground. Even the earth is covered by the Barrier. Even if there were passages, we couldn't attack through them."
Hearing what Lisa said, it seemed there was no way at all.
At that moment, Jiang Qiu spoke up, "I think we can do this."
"The Barrier is also made of Energy. My Nano Insects can absorb Energy and create an opening for us to get inside."
Jiang Chen pondered. This method could work.
"That method won't work either," Lisa interjected. "The Barrier would recover very quickly."
An idea struck Jiang Chen. He suddenly had a plan.
"Cover my body with your Nano Insects. I'll go in alone. As long as I can break the Barrier, that's enough. The rest of you don't need to do anything," he suggested.
Jiang Qiu looked doubtful. "You're going in alone?"
"Yes."
"It's dangerous."
"Don't worry. Once the Barrier is open, I have the Sky Flash Skill. They won't be able to keep up with my speed, and I can escape at any time. No need for concern."
After some thought, Jiang Qiu nodded and agreed, "It's worth a try."
Jiang Qiu extended her right hand, and countless tiny Nano Insects covered Jiang Chen's body, enveloping him. Jiang Chen used Flash in the Void and swiftly rushed toward the bridge.
The entire bridge was a kilometer long. Jiang Chen had already activated Wan Jian Gui Clan's Skill, and all one could see was a shadow speeding across the bridge.
The hundred or so Elf Race Guards on the bridge drew their bows and arrows, attacking Jiang Chen.
With a mere thought from Jiang Chen, Sword Qi shot out rapidly.
Their speed was so immense that the members of The Great Guarding Army swiftly fell dead.
