Absolute Resonance - Chapter 872

Chapter 0872: Appearance of the True Devil

The situation on hand had taken another turn with the appearance of the Human Skin True Devil. Everyone was shocked to see it make an appearance here.

Both sides had lost their Harmony temporarily due to the effect of the ward. At present, the tens of thousands of people present were weak like scattered sand. They were just like fat pigs ready for the True Devil to slaughter.

It was just like what had happened with the four divisions’ members earlier on. In the blink of an eye, hundreds were wiped out. It was a truly tragic loss.

At this moment, horror surfaced in Zhao Jingyu’s eyes too. This turn of events was beyond his imagination. After all, there was little corruption in the Crimson Fire Mountain Range, so Others seldom came here. Who knew that a True Devil would barge in like this?

“Brother Yu, deactivate the ward. Quick!” his three Division Leaders shouted hastily with pale faces.

They would only stand a chance against the True Devil if they canceled the interference from the ward and entered the state of Harmony. If not, they were simply weak, little rabbits trying to stand up against a ferocious lion.

Hearing their screams, Zhao Jingyu woke up from his shock. He quickly placed his palms together and began to deactivate the ward.

However, this required some time. During this time, they witnessed more and more of their division members getting slaughtered by the True Devil. Along with its high pitch laughter, more and more members got skinned alive.

Their cries of agony rang throughout the whole forest.

As the tragic scene of the four divisions from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Zhao broke out, the faces of Li Luo and the rest changed completely too. They stared with horrified looks.

It was only now that they truly felt the terror of a True Devil.

Previously, they had the assistance from Harmony when they were working together to slay the True Devils. Now that they had lost their strength, they had no means to fight off this threat at all.

“Get back! Out of the ward’s jurisdiction!” Li Luo shouted decisively after he took a deep breath to calm his own nerves.

His shout had reached the ears of the banner members standing behind them too. Already feeling the fear, they hurried away like a rushing river.

It was imperative for them to get out of the ward’s jurisdiction so they could activate Harmony and protect themselves.

Li Luo and the other three also retreated speedily. At the same time, they were on high alert as their eyes scanned the surroundings. There were two True Devils that had gone missing in their districts earlier. Now that the Human Skin True Devil had surfaced, the other True Devil might be lurking around in the shadows too.

At the same time, information regarding the second True Devil flashed across Li Luo’s mind.

The Red Eye True Devil, it possessed crimson eyes and enjoyed feasting on people’s eyeballs.

The four of them retreated hastily.

In this instant, both sides were busy running for their lives. They did not have time to bother with each other. After all, what they truly feared was the weird and strange Other.

If they did not regain their Harmony soon, tens of thousands of lives would be lost.

Whoosh!

Just as Li Luo and the rest were making their hasty retreat, they suddenly saw a black silhouette soaring past them in the sky above. It flew past the ground shrouded in what seemed to be red light.

The four leaders narrowed their eyes and turned around to take a look. A strange figure had landed on the top of a big tree in front.

It was wearing a white robe and had a gentle warm smile on its face. However, its eyes had no pupils. Instead, a frightening, bright-red glow could be seen.

Red Eye True Devil!

The Red Eye True Devil did not go for Li Luo and the other three directly. Rather, it started hunting the members from the four banners that were further away.

Their faces changed drastically. Although there was a huge number of banner members from the four banners, it would definitely be a massacre once the Red Eye True Devil approached them!

Unfortunately, the Red Eye True Devil was as fast as a phantom. In a flash, it appeared in the sky above the four banners. Following this, blood-red light condensed in its eyes and shot out like laser beams.

The blood light pierced through the air, dancing with the wind and tearing through many of the banner members below.

Coincidentally, the Green Nether Banner was the first to get caught in it.

The faces of Zhao Yanzhi, Mu Bi, and Li Shi turned pale as they watched the approaching blood light in fear. They tried to repel it with their attacks. However, their attacks with puny resonant power were disintegrated by the blood light instantly.

“Ah!”

Some of the members of the Green Nether Banner collapsed in fright, crying out in despair.

“Stop it, you bastard!” Li Fengyi shouted angrily from the back as her eyes grew red.

However, the Red Eye True Devil did not pay attention to her at all. When the blood light fell, countless heads were twisted whenever it passed, and their eyes were gouged out.

Zhao Yanzhi and the rest trembled in fear and despair as they watched this bloody scene unfold.

Bang!

All of a sudden, a bolt of lightning whizzed through the air. A faint dragon fang could be seen within it. Moving at a speed that the naked eye would not be able to follow, the lightning sliced through and directly clashed with the blood light.

A thunderous sound echoed in the air when the lightning bolt detonated.

Zhao Yanzhi and the rest were blown away by the wild energy from the collision. However, they did not care about this as they rolled on the ground. Instead, they hastily touched their own necks to ensure that their heads were still intact before they heaved sighs of relief.

In the next moment, they looked up in surprise. Lightning was raging in the air above before it completely shattered the blood light.

Everyone was shocked. They were considerably weakened as Harmony was deactivated. Who could have shot this out and pushed back the attack from the True Devil?!

In fact, it was not just them. Li Fengyi, Li Jingtao, and Deng Fengxian were all stunned as well.

In the next moment, they turned their heads around and saw Li Luo, who had fallen a step behind them.

There was a big, silver bow in his hand with its string still vibrating from the aftereffects of the strike. Traces of the wild lightning energy were left behind on it. Clearly, this was where the shocking lightning energy had originated from.

Surprises surfaced in the eyes of the three.

How had Li Luo launched an attack of such power after Harmony had been restricted?

How?!

“Hurry and go!”

Li Luo did not care about their surprised gazes. He shouted sternly to Zhao Yanzhi and the other banner members.

At the same time, his Lambent Hawkeye locked onto the Red Eye True Devil. Huge resonant power surged up and yet another arrow of the Flowing Thunder Dragon Fang materialized in his bow.

He had taken the initiative to fully borrow the Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf’s power.

The Red Eye True Devil paused in its tracks immediately when it was locked on to by Li Luo. It could feel a looming sense of danger coming from his bow.

Its crimson eyes turned slowly towards Li Luo as dark blood-light circulated in its pupils.

Bang! Bang!

Li Luo did not need to be polite with it. The bow trembled and dozens of Flowing Thunder Dragon Fangs appeared at the same time. They all shot towards the Red Eye True Devil directly, leaving a pungent, burnt smell in their trail as the lightning bolts pierced the air. Roars of explosions blasted in their wake.

However, the Red Eye True Devil shot out blood light continuously and blocked the lightning attacks.

Fortunately, the four banners managed to get out of its attack range while Li Luo’s endless barrage kept it occupied. Heaving a sigh of relief, they looked at Li Luo with eyes of gratitude.

They would all have been dead or grievously injured if not for Li Luo’s assault.

In the distance, they could still hear the shrill screams coming from the four divisions of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Zhao. This continued to send chills up their spines.

Without Harmony, they were just like tiny ants in the eyes of these True Devils.

It was fortunate that this situation did not go on for long.

Suddenly, the light layers of the ward shattered into pieces. Zhao Jingyu had finally deactivated the ward.

Unfortunately, their side was already flowing in rivers of blood. It was a truly miserable sight.

The interference from Zhao Jingyu’s ward had really become his own downfall.

However, no one had the time to sympathize with them. When the effects of the ward wore off, dozens of angry shouts sounded off in the forest.

“Harmony!”
