Chapter 885: World of Demonic Beasts

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The entire world was busy killing demonic beasts, and Starting Point City was merely the tip of the iceberg.

Since Li Yi was waiting for the Sacramental Stone to recharge, he could not come online at the moment. However, since he was already at Level 200 and did not need any extra equipment, not coming online was no big deal to him.

After five hours, Li Yi came online once more. By then, Li Yi noticed that the surface of the Sacramental Stone had gone back to its original form.

Li Yi continued to use the ‘Teleport and Resurrect’ tactic to progress. Soon, he had passed the Seventh Demon God Altar.

At this point, other than Genghis, there were no more bosses or sub-bosses in the Foreignlands. All the Demon Gods had joined the fray, as they started to spawn randomly at various parts of the world.

The progress using the Sacramental Stone’s Resurrection was quite slow. The number of demonic beasts Li Yi had encountered was much higher than he had expected. By the time he had arrived at Karan City, an entire day had already passed.

There weren’t many demonic beasts over inside Karan City. Everything seemed to be normal, but upon closer inspection, Li Yi found that during the demonic beast invasion period, the Morphing spell could not be used.

“What would Aragon be doing right now?”

Out of sheer curiosity, Li Yi stopped his trip and headed over to Aragon’s straw hut.

As the former Emperor of the Continent, what would he be doing at this moment?

When he opened the door to the straw hut, he found that it was completely abandoned. The former Emperor of the Continent Aragon had already long disappeared.

Three days later, Li Yi finally arrived at the Demon God Castle.

Full-scale demonic war was still ongoing, but the damages on the Ninth Continent and the Invincible Continent side were minute at best. Only the Assembled Gods Continent, who had lost to wave after wave of attacks, lost all of their major cities to the demonic army.

From news from the Assembled Gods Continent, the Fluttering Snow Alliance was literally doing nothing in defense; they just abandoned one city after the other. These actions caused a huge commotion in the continent as players all started to go to the World Channel to flame Bai Xiaoya.

The reason they were flaming Bai Xiaoya was simple. Before the demon war even started, Bai Xiaoya went all over the place to contact all the nations, forming a whole new ‘Assembled Gods Alliance” in preparation to fend against the incoming demon invasion. However, now that the war actually began, as the commander of the alliance, she was literally just bringing her men to abandon cities and fleeing. This was just outright trolling at this point!

A lot of people were lost to taking it anymore as they blamed all the damage they had suffered on Bai Xiaoya. From morning till night, everyone had been spewing toxic slurs targeted at her.

To be frank, Bai Xiaoya was truly ruthless this time around. She managed to screw with every single person of the continent. At this point in time, she did not even bother to give an explanation, she had completely disregarded all the junk flung her way.

As for what the Fluttering Snow Alliance was doing after they fled, it was an open secret. They were now at the Emperor Ruins, running the Ancient Kings dungeons.

“Backstabbing son of a b*tch, I’ll see that bastards like you die!”

“Bai Xiaoya, don’t you f*cking dare to let me see you, otherwise you’ll defo not walk out alive!”

“Bai Xiaoya! F*ck your mum!”

Every so often, similar lines like these would appear on the World Channel. Bai Xiaoya had truly hurt that group of players.

Compared to the earlier areas, the Demon God Castle was much quieter.

At first glance, there was not even a single demonic beast.

There were literally no demonic beasts at all in this place. All the demonic beasts that spawned, without any exception, had been forcefully sent straight to the entrance of the Foreignlands, joining the demonic invasion.

It seemed like it was finally time for the Sacramental Stone to take some rest. Li Yi speedily walked down the familiar corridors of the Demon God Castle. Based on his knowledge, he effortlessly arrived at the Demon God Halls.

“Ba-dump! Ba-dump! Ba-dump! Ba-dump!”

As compared to the Genghis of the past, this current Genghis in the Demon God Halls was at least three times larger. Its heart beat rhythmically as its veins were all popped out.

The Demonic Tribe could use Blood Sacrifices to increase their own strength. This current Genghis’ strength was definitely on par with the past seven spawns.

The moment Li Yi went in, he immediately retreated. With its remaining HP at around 5,000, this thing’s attack was terrifying.

Li Yi pulled out a pale blue long rod from his inventory, wielding it in his hand. A moment later, the long rod started to shine, occasionally letting out a weird buzzing sound.

This pale blue long rod was something the new form that Thunder God’s Heart and the Divine Tome had merged into. Last time, lending the power of the moonlight, Li Yi unintentionally merged the Thunder God’s Heart and The Divine Tome together. Just a while later, he had also discovered another secret.

When the Thunder God’s Staff was absorbing energy, it would start to shine and let out a buzzing siren-like sound.

Li Yi then pulled out the Superior Vignette Mirror. As the mirror was vibrating non-stop, his face instantly lit up.

The Superior Vignette Mirror was a Tool of Ascension. Its vibration meant that one could weaken a targeted demonic beast’s strength.

In layman’s terms, the buffed up Genghis could be weakened by the Superior Vignette Mirror.

“Come out, Alleria!”

The beautiful White Elf Vagabond appeared, standing majestically in front of Li Yi.

“Go in and unleash Godless.”

“Leave it to me!”

Alleria nodded as she waltzed into the Demon God Halls.

‘Godless’ was a Level-one Ultimate skill. Although Genghis’ powers had been buffed, it was still not a True God. Hence, it was still affected by the ultimate.

LI Yi waited for 3 seconds before going in.

Genghis’ heart was still beating, but it did not use bone spur to attack Li Yi. It had entered into a dazed state for 30 seconds.

“Weakening Light!”

With a loud battle cry, Li Yi pointed the Superior Vignette Mirror at Genghis.

“Tschh——”

A white beam of light shot out of the mirror, landing a direct hit onto Genghis’ body. Its heart rapidly started to shrink as its power started to wane.

“Water Clone!

“Time Stinger Arrow!”

“Ptschh——”

The dazed Genghis was nothing more than a punching bag to Li Yi at this point. No matter how he attacked, it did not fight back. Hence, every time Li Yi attacked, he was using his strongest skills.

After two Time Stoner Arrows landed on Genghis, the damage numbers all popped out at once.

“Ba-dump! Ba-dump! Ba-dump! Ba-dump!”

Genghis’ heart started beating even faster. This was a sign that it was about to explode. However, Li Yi did not retreat out of the hall. He pulled out the Thunder God’s Staff and waited there silently.

“Buzz——”

The Thunder God’s Staff fired a huge bolt of lightning that wrapped itself around Genghis. Black energy, visible to the naked eye, started to surge out towards the staff, being purified into Divine Power.

The Divine Power value of the staff slowly ticked up. By the time Genghis’ power had been sucked dry, the value had went from 3 points all the way up to 10.

10 points of Divine Power!

“Poof!”

Genghis self-destructed right before he died. However, since his power had already been sucked dry by the Thunder God’s Staff, the explosion felt as impactful as a fart. It dealt literally no damage.

The Superior Vignette Mirror also started to turn dim. At the same time, the system notification was sent to the World Channel breaking the news that Li Yi had defeated the First Demon God.

[Due to a certain mysterious player’s efforts in defeating the First Demon God, the Demonic Tribe’s powers have been greatly weakened…]

Li Yi chose not to reveal his name, solely because he found interest in all the speculation threads that were bound to come up.

How much Genghis was buffed when he was alive was equivalent to how much he was weakened after his death. In turn, due to his death, it had caused the front lines of the demon army to crumble completely.

The originally absurdly strong Demonic Tribe had now turned into a pushover. Their ATK was lowered, their HP was lowered, their DEF, SPE… There was literally no attribute of theirs that was not lowered. Instantly, they turned into helpless creatures massacred by the players.

Hence, this demon war had ended anticlimactically at the hands of Li Yi.

[Ender of Demonic Beasts!]

[Glorious God Archer!]

[Hero of the New World!]

[You are now Worshipped by all NPC forces throughout the continents!]

As Li Yi stood at the Demon God Hall, it took more than an entire minute just to receive all the rewards.

As per the Pantheon Continent’s lore, the Demonic Invasion expansion had officially come to an end. Of course, the Foreignlands was still open to the players, whilst the Demonic Tribe would still occasionally organize an invasion on the major cities. However, all of these events were no longer canon. The demonic beasts after this point would only give the players EXP and equipment, it no longer rewarded players with Glory points or Reputational Value.

Since the Thunder God’s Staff had absorbed Genghis, it was normal for Genghis to not drop any equipment. Li Yi did not mind either. To him, his equipment was already satisfactory. At this point, he only had one single goal – to ascend to Godhood.

Li Yi mumbled to himself, “Now that the Demonic Invasion expansion ended, the Wings of the Sky should be open, right?”

After waiting in the Demon God Hall for a long time, there still was not any system notification that he had been expecting.

The Pantheon Mystery pre-expansion event Wings of the Sky was still not released!

‘This… This is weird!’

In his past life, as soon as the Demonic Invasion ended, the Wings of the Sky were immediately released! Why was it not released this time?

Maybe, was it because there were no players who had completed their Ascension yet?

Li Yi pulled out the Divine Looking Glass and entered “Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut” before confirming the selection.

The Divine looking glass flashed a screen filled with information.

[Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut]

[Attributes: Unknown]

[Current Location: Tower of Remorse Floor 68]

“Floor 68?”

Li Yi was wide-eyed.

Since the Demonic Invasion expansion had ended and the same-leveled Ancient Kings series of dungeons had all been ran through by the OP-ness of the reborn player, the current level cap was still the same as in Li Yi’s past life. It was still capped at Level 200. However, the God Wars Competition that Li Yi was excited about still had not started.

Although the God Wars Competition was actually a scheme by the other Gods, to players, being able to get a high rank in the competition was already a great honor. It was a game after all, who would not want to be at the best of the best, being admired by everyone else?

Dozens of days passed by in the blink of an eye as the new Seasonal Championship for the arena was announced. However, Li Yi did not participate this time round. He was currently tasked with an extremely difficult mission – Kill the World Bosses!

He was just traveling throughout the Pantheon Continent, killing all the bosses he could.

Based on his experience, if he wanted to increase the Thunder God’s Staff’s Divine Power, he had to kill the World Bosses. Killing normal dungeon and raid bosses would not increase the Divine Power of the Thunder God’s Staff by even the slightest; it had no effect.

Li Yi had vaguely grasped how the Ascension Quest worked. His current goal was most likely to charge the Divine Power of the Thunder God’s Staff to its maximum capacity!

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut was also doing the Ascension Quest. That was a fact that Li Yi had gotten proof of. As Li Yi was now running all over the place repeatedly killing the World Bosses, it was actually a race against her, a race to decide who shall be the first one the ascend to Godhood!
