Chapter 622: 386 The Fallen Demon_2
As Logan once again spurred the dark clouds to gather Divine Thunder, the Demonic Sky Taoist completely panicked. With his Emperor Weapon already shattered, what other means could he have to counter Logan? The forces of the Great Law he had used earlier were also swallowed up by the dark clouds once they gathered.
“Could it be that I, a person of the Holy See, will perish here?” The Demonic Sky Taoist was extremely reluctant to accept this fate. With his Realm, he should be carefree in the world, yet now he was trapped in this array, so stifled. What could his resentment do now? At this point he had no choice.
Logan raised an eyebrow at this scene and taunted, “How about it? The offer I made before still stands. If you acknowledge me as your Master and sign a Heavenly Dao Contract, I can let you off. This is your last chance. If you don’t cherish it, you can only go to Hell then!”
If the Demonic Sky Taoist were a wise man, he would bow to Logan now, as throwing away a lifetime of cultivation seemed too much of a pity. After all, Sanctuary Powerhouses usually cherish their lives greatly, like Heavenly Saint Daoist before, who would plot for a century just to extend his lifespan.
“Delusional fantasy,” the Demonic Sky Taoist replied with just four words. He would rather die in battle within the array than compromise the dignity of the Holy See. Once he chose to recognize Logan as his Master, he would have to live a life of subterfuge, and obey Logan’s commands in everything.
This response did not disappoint Logan. Instead, it caused deep despair among the members of the Demonic Sky Gate, all of whom wondered why the Demonic Sky Taoist couldn’t compromise. After all, Logan could even summon Thunder Tribulation, so how could they fight such an enemy? It would be better to bow down and preserve their lives.
Azrael Skyward was worried and wanted to go help the Demonic Sky Taoist, “Elder of the Demonic Sky, let me help you. If we join forces, we might find a slim chance of survival. I don’t believe Thunder Tribulation has no weaknesses.”
“Get out of my way,” the Demonic Sky Taoist snarled, not allowing Azrael Skyward close to himself, his eyes revealing self-mockery and determination. He never wanted things to come to this, but since Logan gave him no way out, they might all go to Hell together.
The Demonic Sky Taoist glared at Logan fiercely and insanely, “To coerce a Sanctuary Powerhouse to this point, I have to admit, you are formidable. Do you think you can control the overall situation like this? If ordinary means are of no use against you, then I will use the method of the Holy See as a last resort.”
Upon hearing this, and in conjunction with the expression on the Demonic Sky Taoist’s face, Logan actually felt a chill. Could it be that the Demonic Sky Taoist wanted to self-destruct like the previous Beast King? Logan had seen with his own eyes the explosive power produced when the Beast King burned his Bloodline’s Origin.
“Burn, Power of the Saint Seat!” The Demonic Sky Taoist released a Technique, and his body was instantly shrouded in a crimson aura. The terrifying presence enveloped the entire heavens and earth, and everyone nearby shivered with fear. This expression was like that of a great Demon Head; even the most powerful being on the Demon Path would be no different.
Logan was on high alert; he naturally knew what it meant. To amplify his power, the Demonic Sky Taoist was refining and opening up his Origin of the Saint Seat to obtain strength—hardly different from self-destructing. Once the Origin of the Saint Seat was exhausted, it wasn’t just a matter of falling in Realm; the life force of the other party would also come to an end.
For Sanctuary Powerhouses to do this, it was tantamount to wanting to take the enemy down with them. After all, once they burned the Origin of the Saint Seat, they would gain an increase in strength a million times over in an instant, and even if one faced the onslaught of more than a dozen of the Sanctuary rank, one might still come out unscathed.
A bolt of Divine Thunder immediately struck down from the dark clouds, attempting to interrupt the Demonic Sky Taoist’s burning, but with a cold laugh, the Demonic Sky Taoist, strengthened by terrifying power, clutched the massive Divine Thunder in one hand. With a simple grasp, the Divine Thunder shattered into countless fragments of Thunder and Lightning Laws.
This scene shocked everyone, and several lords immediately started to worry. The Demonic Sky Taoist seemed to have become indifferent to the array, could it be that he was reversing the situation again? They had thought that they had already secured the overall situation, but now they took a deep breath of cold air, praying desperately that there wouldn’t be a turnaround.
Of course, the lords also understood that the Demonic Sky Taoist’s aggressive stance couldn’t last long, such a sacrifice was definitely causing him great harm. But if Logan’s barrier screens couldn’t hold it off, it would probably only take one strike from the Demonic Sky Taoist; all present would fall before he reverted to his normal state.
On the side of the Demonic Sky Gate, it was completely different; over twenty thousand disciples shouted in unison at this moment. Everyone had been prepared to face death, yet they never expected such a twist to occur—truly befitting the status of the Sect’s Supreme Elder. At last, their Demonic Sky Gate could finally take a breath of relief.
Logan was only stunned for a moment before regaining his calm, “Interesting, you think that by sacrificing the Origin of the Saint Seat, you can break my array? I told you before, the Thunder and Lightning Laws have only been activated halfway so far. Now let me show you the true power.”
Thus, by naming it the Extinguishing Saint Array, it must possess the ability to annihilate the Saint Seat, otherwise, Logan would not have spent forty million Spirit Stones and pondered for more than a day to calculate the hundreds of thousands of Spirit Points in the layout and overall operation.
Logan activated the Extinguishing Saint Array, and the next moment, the dark clouds in the sky suddenly disappeared. Then, countless Laws and Great Laws converged together, and a huge vortex appeared in the sky—an ancient and magnificent black vortex that seemed like the supremely exalted existence.
Streams of dark clouds surged out from the vortex, and in just a few instants, they had already shrouded and blackened the entire sky. Countless forces of the Laws flickered and thundered from within the dark clouds, even revealing ten thousand Fierce Beasts that one could not help but feel intimidated by at a single glance.
A Divine Thunder was accumulated by the Laws, unlike the ordinary thunder of Thunder Tribulation. The current thunder seemed to be the convergence of the three thousand Great Laws into one. It could not be considered as condensed by the array, resembling actual Thunder Tribulation, aiming to utterly obliterate the enemy.
The Demonic Sky Taoist actually felt fear in his heart, but he understood that he had already burned the Origin of the Saint Seat and had no way out. Even if he wanted to flee now, after exhausting the Power of the Saint Seat, he would descend to Hell with bitterness. He had to fight to the death against Logan to seek a glimmer of survival,
Even if he fell in the end, he at least had to forge a path of life for the remaining over twenty thousand people of the Demonic Sky Gate. As the Supreme Elder of the Demonic Sky Gate, this was the only Contribution he could make, so he resolutely prepared a counterstrike at that Divine Thunder.
But in the next moment, he suddenly blinked next to Logan. The burning of the Saint Seat’s power allowed him to tear through space with the speed of an instant. Logan simply couldn’t react in time. Watching the incoming attack that he couldn’t avoid, the Demonic Sky Taoist revealed a triumphant smile on his face.
“A jumping clown!” Logan was also taken aback, knowing that if he were truly hit by this attack, given that he was only in the realm of the Strong Dominator, he would die instantly and his Path would vanish. However, Logan had barrier screens, and the Demonic Sky Taoist’s attack would ultimately not reach him.
When the Demonic Sky Taoist was just one meter away from Logan, his hand-held Divine Skill was only a step’s distance from Logan when he was suddenly blocked by an invisible shield. This scene left the Demonic Sky Taoist completely dumbfounded. He had calculated everything to Perfection—how could this invisible shield have appeared?
Watched by a puzzled opponent, Logan explained, “To prevent your sneak attack, I had divided a flow of Qi from the Barrier Screens around me. After all, I’m only a Strong Dominator, and I wouldn’t have entered the Barrier without some defensive measures.”
“Damn it.” The Demonic Sky Taoist was furious. Recklessly, he unleashed his attack on the barrier Qi flow, causing the surrounding to shake violently. However, the Barrier Screens remained as solid as Mount Tai, but Logan felt a heavy burden; he knew the barrier couldn’t hold out for long.
