Multiple Personalities-Chapter 421: Demon

"This power is terrifying!" Lin Yu was secretly amazed in his heart. He tightly gripped the weapon in his hand, cautiously watching the sky. At that moment, a rumbling growl came from the dark clouds, a sound like it was from a demon in Hell, sending chills down one's spine.

Immediately after, a group of dark creatures in various forms flew out of the clouds. Some had massive wings, resembling bats; others had bodies like lizards but with sharp claws and teeth; some even emitted a green glow as if they were formed by poisonous gas. The number of these dark creatures was vast, densely covering the sky like a black ocean.

"Everyone, be careful!" Shen Jingqi shouted loudly. He swung the long sword in his hand and charged towards the dark creatures first. The golden figure appeared once more, the light from his body more dazzling than before, like a war god. His long sword swung like a windmill, cutting down several dark creatures with each swing.

Lin Yu and Xu An were not to be outdone, following behind Shen Jingqi and the golden figure, fighting the dark creatures with all their might. Lin Yu's sword was like lightning, quickly striking at the vital points of the dark creatures; Xu An wielded a massive battle axe, cleaving the approaching dark creatures in half.

However, these dark creatures seemed endless, continuously pouring out from the clouds. The knights were gradually unable to hold their ground, with each sustaining more or less some injuries. Lin Yu's arm was scratched by a dark creature's claw, blood flowing freely; Xu An's leg was bitten, making his movements sluggish.

"We can't continue like this, we must find a way to break this stalemate." Shen Jingqi thought to himself. While fighting, he observed the surroundings. Suddenly, he noticed a large shadow in the clouds, seemingly directing the dark creatures.

"That shadow must be their leader; if we eliminate it, these dark creatures will disperse." Shen Jingqi felt a surge of joy in his heart. He shouted to the golden figure loudly, "Golden figure, I see their leader! Let's go take it down together!"

The golden figure nodded and said, "Alright! Let's go!" With that, the two fought their way through, heading towards the shadow in the clouds. Lin Yu and Xu An, seeing their actions, also followed suit, not wanting their leader to face danger alone.

As they approached the shadow, they discovered it was a massive demon. It stood several zhang tall, its body covered in black scales, emitting a pungent stench. Its eyes burned like flames, radiating an evil light; its mouth full of sharp teeth, occasionally letting out a roar.

"You ants dare challenge me!" the demon roared loudly, its voice like thunder. It swung its gigantic Wolf Fang Club towards Shen Jingqi and the others. The club carried immense power, tearing through the air wherever it went.

Shen Jingqi and the others quickly dodged, their movements agile like swift leopards. While evading, they also searched continuously for the demon's flaws. Finally, the golden figure found an opportunity, and taking advantage of the gap when the demon swung its club, he fiercely charged, stabbing his long sword at the demon's eye.

The demon let out a wretched scream, violently swinging its club, sending the golden figure flying. He crashed heavily to the ground, spitting a mouthful of blood. But he did not give up; he struggled to stand, rushing at the demon once more.

Shen Jingqi, Lin Yu, and Xu An also seized the chance to launch attacks, charging at the demon from different directions, their weapons shining brightly. Though the demon was formidable, under their combined assault, it gradually began to falter. Its body bore wounds upon wounds, blood flowing freely.

The demon roared angrily, suddenly opening its mouth to unleash a stream of black flames. The flames burned with extreme heat, turning everything they touched into ashes.

Lin Yu and the others quickly retreated, dodging the assault of the black flames.

At that moment, Shen Jingqi's gaze was sharp as a blade, fixed intently on a spot beneath the demon's massive body. He noticed a tiny red spot at the demon's feet, standing out fiercely against the demon's black, ominous aura, with a mysterious glow flowing faintly, seemingly holding endless dark secrets, possibly the demon's weak spot.

Shen Jingqi's heart tightened, overwhelmed by a strong urge, yet mixed with a hint of apprehension. He pondered silently, "Is this truly its weakness? If I misjudge, I won't just be doomed; everyone else will suffer as well. But if I don't seize this opportunity, we may find it impossible to defeat this demon." After a brief hesitation, he gritted his teeth, making a decision.

"Everyone, cover me, I'm going to attack its weak point!" Shen Jingqi shouted loudly, his voice clear and resolute even amidst the chaotic battle sounds.

Lin Yu and the others turned towards Shen Jingqi at the sound of his call, their eyes filled with trust and concern. Lin Yu nodded vigorously, responding loudly, "Alright! Shen, go ahead with confidence; we will buy you time!" With that said, he swung his weapon with greater force, unleashing sharp beams of light at the demon.

The demon was flustered by the sudden intense attacks, roaring angrily and swinging its massive claws, trying to drive them back.

Taking this opportunity, Shen Jingqi, like a nimble leopard, quietly maneuvered to the demon's rear. His steps were light and swift, each one landing in the gaps between the demon's attacks, making not a sound. His heartbeat quickened, yet his gaze remained eerily calm, locked firmly on the red spot beneath the demon's feet. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

He took a deep breath, as though inhaling all the surrounding air into his lungs, focusing all his strength into the sword in his hand. The blade began to tremble slightly, buzzing as if excited for the impending battle. Shen Jingqi could feel his blood boiling, every nerve taut, ready to embrace the moment of life and death.

Then, he leapt up fiercely, like an eagle soaring high, stabbing towards the red spot at the demon's feet.

This strike, swift as lightning, sliced through the air with a sharp sound, giving the demon no time to react.

"Ah!" The demon let out a thunderous, earth-shattering scream.

Its body began to tremble violently, like a leaf swaying in a tempest. The demon's claws flailed wildly, trying to seize Shen Jingqi, but Shen Jingqi deftly dodged.
