Divine-level Base-Chapter 71: Terrifying Void Demon

A Goblin Leader reached out, slung Guo Tiantian over its shoulder like a sack of rice, and took off at a full sprint.

Faint, distorted wisps of Demon Light flared as a figure slowly squeezed its way out of the Void Demon Gate. It was a handsome, middle-aged man with short white hair and two Ghost Horns protruding from his head, dressed in a black suit.

The Void Demon, appearing as a middle-aged man, cast an indifferent glance toward Shu Feng and You Meng a kilometer away.

’He’s so dangerous! That monster could kill me in a single hit!’

A chilling premonition of danger washed over Shu Feng. He trembled as if facing a natural predator, an involuntary Fear creeping into his heart.

The Void Demon that looked like a middle-aged man waved a hand.

A black, claw-like slash of energy shot across the kilometer-long distance, streaking toward Shu Feng like a meteor.

BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!

One after another, the Black Dog Illusion Demons leaped to intercept the black claw slash, only to be blasted to pieces.

The three Goblin Leaders were also struck and pierced straight through by the black slash, collapsing to the ground.

The King of Goblins held the [Profound Turtle Shield] before it, pouring in Spiritual Power. The pattern of a Profound Turtle instantly materialized on the shield, causing its Defense Power to skyrocket.

BAM!!

The black slash slammed into the [Profound Turtle Shield], punching a large hole straight through it. The attack then struck the King of Goblins, tearing a bloody, fist-sized hole in its abdomen.

The King of Goblins’ body convulsed and shriveled, turning into a desiccated corpse.

A crimson ray shot out from the King of Goblins’ body, transforming into a streak of bloody light that flew into the hand of the Void Demon.

’What a monster! If that attack had hit me, I’d be dead for sure!’

A chilling Fear surged through Shu Feng. That Void Demon had killed the King of Goblins in a single blow from several kilometers away; its Power was terrifying. ’If it decides to come after me, I’m a dead man.’

’That ant didn’t die? Oh well. This world is too hostile to me! Cursed Heart of the World, one day I will destroy you and bring this entire world under the control of our clan!’

The middle-aged Void Demon frowned slightly. It took a step, wisps of Demonic Qi swirling beneath its feet, and strode toward an underground palace that had materialized several kilometers away.

A steady stream of monsters poured from the Void Demon Gate: Spirit Warrior Level Black Dog Illusion Demons, Werewolf Demons, and corrupted Low-level Demons with pitch-black skin and crimson eyes.

Shu Feng’s eyes lit up with excitement. ’That big one is gone! Looks like he has other business to attend to. What a great opportunity! Source Power! This is my chance to get Source Power!’

Source Power was a form of energy more advanced than even Divine Power, and it could allow Shu Feng to rapidly evolve his Magical Energy. In this vast world, there were countless geniuses. Heaven-level Spirit Ability Users, Heroes, Saints, and Divine Spirits were all incomparably powerful, existing in realms unattainable by mortals. Even so, they were still at a disadvantage against the terrifying Void Demons from the Void Demon Realm.

The more Shu Feng trained, the more he understood just how terrifying the Void Demons were. He refused to let a single opportunity to grow stronger slip by.

Shu Feng said, "Sister You Meng, you contact the Captain! Call for backup. I’ll hold the rear guard and do my best to eliminate these Void Demons."

"Don’t you die! Just stay alive! Your life is what’s most important! We can’t stop the Void Demon Gate from opening anyway, so don’t put that burden on yourself!" You Meng said, her brow furrowed with concern.

No one had ever expected a Void Demon Gate to open in Lei Jiang City. After all, for the Void Demon Clan to open a portal here—even a temporary one—required paying an enormous price.

On a mission like this, it was impossible to stop unless the sacrificial ritual was discovered and disrupted at the very beginning. Once it reached this stage, there was nothing to be done. Guardian Flame headquarters wouldn’t punish them too harshly for the failure.

’Of course I know! But I want that Source Power!’ Shu Feng thought, then said with a faint smile, "Don’t worry, Sister You Meng. If things get bad, I’ll just have these Summoned Beasts cover for me."

"Alright! I’m heading out!"

You Meng wasted no time. She took Guo Tiantian from him, got into a vehicle, and retreated into the distance.

"I am Shu Feng, a Third-level Police Chief with the Special Operations Unit. The monsters in there have opened a Teleportation Gate, and more are pouring out continuously. Immediately radio the police department for backup and evacuate all civilians from this area."

Shu Feng approached Vice Director Liu of the police department, who was in charge of the quarantine around Mulu Village. He showed his credentials and said in a solemn voice,

Vice Director Liu felt a chill and answered decisively, "Yes, sir!"

The Special Operations Unit was a higher authority than the police department and wielded immense power. During an official operation, if Vice Director Liu were to defy his command, Shu Feng had the right to execute him on the spot.

"They’re coming!"

"The monsters are here!"

"Open fire! Open fire now!"

"..."

The police officers quickly swallowed their [Spiritual Vision Pills]. They could instantly see the various Demons pouring out of Mulu Village. Gripped by tension, they began to fire desperately.

The [Spiritual Vision Pill] was a Spirit Pill developed by an Alchemy Master within the Guardian Flame. After taking one, even an ordinary person could see the forms of Void Demons for up to an hour.

With the [Spiritual Vision Pills], as long as they didn’t encounter the incorporeal Ghostly Void Demons, even ordinary people could fight against the Demons with conventional weapons.

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

A hail of bullets slammed into the Demons, tearing bloody holes in the Low-level Void Demons.

The regular officers’ small-caliber pistols posed little threat to the Low-level Void Demons. However, the two dozen SWAT officers were armed with large-caliber automatic rifles. A single round could blast a large, bloody hole in a Low-level Void Demon, making the SWAT team the main force for fighting them.

Shu Feng stood guard at the entrance to the village, [Hei Ya] in hand. He fired continuously, blowing the heads off one Spirit Warrior Level Black Dog Illusion Demon after another.

Ten Goblin Leaders stood at the forefront, clad head to toe in Pure Steel Armor. With a Steel Shield in one hand and a Giant Wolf Fang Club in the other, they looked like ten miniature, humanoid mechs, smashing any Low-level Demon that slipped past the gunfire into bloody chunks.

You Meng stared at her phone as it continued to ring unanswered. A grave expression crossed her face. ’He’s not picking up! The Captain’s team must have run into a powerful enemy!’

「In a luxury residential complex in Xiuling District」

The area was littered with mangled limbs and corpses. Gongsun Hai lay in a pile of rubble, a gaping, bloody hole in his chest. His eyes were wide and vacant, all signs of life gone.

Gao Wen, one arm severed, hid behind cover, panting heavily.

Eugene lay in another pile of ruins, his condition unknown.

Zhou Yang, clad in a suit of cyan Full Body Armor, wielded a Long Sword. He executed his Clear Wind Flowing Cloud Sword technique, his blade moving like a gentle breeze and flowing clouds as he thrust it toward a Ghost-devouring Demon.
