Shen Yin Wang Zuo

Chapter 848: The Rhythm of Terror and Sadness (I)

The soundless scream from the terrifying fiend rang out in the Lightning Demon God Buer’s head. He only felt like his head had suddenly been viciously stabbed by countless needles. His entire body shuddered, while his unstoppable attack from before was drastically affected. It weakened severely.

The two droplets of tears from the angel landed on the Lightning Demon God Buer’s blades silently. From where the tears landed, white light immediately spread across the two blades. It did not stop the attack, nor did it destroy the blades.

However, Buer’s domain on the blades as well as all of the aura of darkness and negative energy vanished completely when the two droplets landed. In other words, they had vanished in the most crucial moment of the battle.

Sht! Sht! The two mantis blades stabbed into Sima Xian’s armour viciously. However, Sima Xian had become countless times larger than before, while his armour had thickened as well. The mantis blades were Buer’s most powerful attacks, such that even without the support of any power, they were still abnormally sharp. However, they failed to even reach Sima Xian’s chest muscles.

If the domain and the other powerful boosts remained, Buer would have the utmost confidence to tears this baldy to shreds no matter how large Sima Xian had become once the two blades landed. Unfortunately, they were just a pair of sharp blades now.

Sima Xian’s weathered face revealed a vicious smile. He had been waiting for this moment for far too long. He had always been suppressed by Buer and he had been enduring it the whole time as well, just so he could deal a fatal attack in the final moment.

Han Yu had only helped Sima Xian for a single instance, but Sima Xian and Han Yu had already planned it a long time ago, just like how Cai’er, Wang Yuanyuan and Lin Xin worked together.

Sima Xian’s movements were not as dextrous as Buer, nor were they as fast, but they were not much slower either! When Buer’s blades stabbed into Sima Xian’s body, Sima Xian was close to completing what he was doing as well. His attack was crude. He threw the Gigantic Ball of Lightning at his own chest. Indeed, he did not even spare himself. The terrifying metal ball that had become several dozen times larger collided into his chest like a cannon hitting a mosquito.

Sima Xian’s domain was called the Gigantic Ball of Lightning. It was similar to Long Yating’s, a domain weapon. Although it could not turn him into a weapon like how Long Yating could turn into a sword, its powers were basically the same.

In that moment, the Gigantic Ball of Lightning collided against his body. It seemed like Sima Xian was completely disregarding his personal safety, but from a perspective of his domain, his body was also a part of the Gigantic Ball of Lightning. The collision was just uniting the two, so could it cause much damage at all?

A terrifying, sharp scream wreaked havoc in Buer’s head. The intense pain caused Buer to stiffen up uncontrollably. The moment he had landed his attack on Sima Xian was also the moment he had become stuck to Sima Xian and when the sharp scream affected him.

The opportunity was completely within Sima Xian’s grasp. His grasp could be described as flawless, as a matter of fact. He had weakened Buer completely, while giving himself enough time.

Slap!

The Gigantic Ball of Lightning collided against Sima Xian’s chest as he stood a hundred meters tall. In that moment, his entire body lit up with golden light, while his chest was purple.

If a praying mantis was crushed by a mountain, what wold happen?

As one of the demon gods with the greatest attacks, Buer’s defence was not particularly strong.

Under ordinary circumstances, even if he encountered danger, he could use his demon god pillar to teleport away as it was nearby. However, the Bright Glimmer of Hope had clashed with demon gods far too many times, so they were extremely experienced. Since Sima Xian and Han Yu had set up a trap to kill, they would not give him any opportunity to escape!

The terrifying scream lasted for a total of three seconds in Buer’s heads, but those three seconds completely overwhelmed Buer. Perhaps this period would have been shorter for demon gods skilled in magic with powerful mental force, but Buer was far too focused on one thing, such that his other aspects were not particularly strong. As a result, he was completely helpless after falling into the trap.

However, no matter how weak Buer’s defences were, he was still a demon god who ranked within the top ten and he was protected by his demon god transformation. Although Sima Xian’s attack had forcefully landed on him with the might of his domain weapon, it failed to kill off Buer. Though, Buer was trembling with fear.

Under the heavy blow, Buer only felt like his organs had been crushed by a searing piece of iron. What made his despair was that his mantis blades had both shattered under the terrifying force. Without his mantis blades, he was like a toothless tiger. In that moment, all Buer wanted was to escape, but only two seconds had passed since terrifying scream began. Before the scream ended, he was unable to connect with his demon god pillar. As a matter of fact, he could not even use the Demonic Collapse Technique.

Everyone who understood Sima Xian would had known that his attack had only just begun after the Gigantic Ball of Lightning had landed.

Sima Xian did not hold back at all. He understood exactly what kind of opponent he was facing. If he let Buer catch his breath, he might have even been able to regrow his blades. As a result, he erupted like what Lin Xin did before, without holding back anything at all.

Afterwards, a terrifying rumble erupted from Sima Xian’s chest like thunder.

Smash, Crush and Triple Blast, combined with the Godly Purple Lightning and the Godly Purple Lightning Cannon.

The Lightning Demon God became the first opponent who had to endure the full force attack of Sima Xian’s domain weapon ever since he had gained a domain. Even the Abomination King from before had not been treated like this.

Sima Xian’s body twitched from the electricity and black smoke emerged from his chest. When he removed the Gigantic Ball of Lightning, even Buer’s demon god crown was destroyed, let alone his body.

Could the power of domain weapons be blocked so easily?

In just those few minutes, the bald priest Sima Xian had surpassed the record that Lin Xin had just set down on the battlefield, increasing the highest rank of the demon god that died on the battlefield to tenth.

The fellow sufferers, the Snake Spear Demon God Eligos and the Lightning Demon God Buer, could now reunite in a different world. Their demon god pillars had completely dimmed now.

Sima Xian had even used less effort than Lin Xin. After all, he did receive the direct assistance of Han Yu.

Sima Xian extended his thumb at Han Yu, while also rubbing the image of an angel on his chest. Now, the image of the angel vanished silently.

The Divine Throne of Terror and Sadness was the strongest divine throne after the Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation. It was also the first divine throne that mankind had created.

During the age of darkness that had spanned over six thousand years, the Divine Throne of Terror and Sadness had only ever recognised two knights. Han Yu was the second.

The weapon that the divine throne provided was only a shield, the Shield of Terror and Sadness. In terms of defence, it could be regarded as the best among the five subsidiary divine thrones. Currently, Han Yu had easily stopped a Demon King level Devil Dragon squad, all by himself, yet he was able to assist Sima Xian while being under simultaneous attacks from a Devil Dragon King, a Moon Demon King and a Star Demon King. That only demonstrated just how astonishing the defences of the Divine Throne of Terror and Sadness were.

However, from the performance of the divine throne earlier, it was possible to tell that the divine throne’s abilities were not just restricted to defence. The technique that Han Yu had just used was called the Rhythm of Terror and Sadness. He could use this technique on himself, or on other people as well. It was a powerful auxiliary technique that could also restrict its targets.

Han Yu and Sima Xian had once experimented with it many times. They had experimented the effects of the terrifying scream on the Starry Sky Holy Knight Yang Haoyu, which demonstrated that even a powerhouse like Yang Haoyu, someone of both physical and magical prowess with tremendous mental force, would still be incapacitated by the scream for two seconds at the very least. And, the most terrifying part about the technique was that it could not be interrupted or removed. However, it also came with a prerequisite, which was that it had to land on the opponent. The only flaw about the technique was that it could not lock onto the opponent, so it required the enemy to not dodge. Otherwise, Han Yu would not have waited until Sima Xian was in danger before he took action.

Under the combination of these two companions, they finally finished off a demon god ranked very high. It also brought slight relief to the situation of the humans.

However, the battle prowess of the demon gods was still terrifying. In that short moment, another two Eternal Heroes fell, while Lin Xin also used this time to re-enter the battlefield. He directly flew over to Sima Xian’s shoulder. He tossed a few pills to Sima Xian and then used Sima Xian’s shoulder as an artillery battery. With the Eternal Dragon’s Fire as his cannon, he unleashed his might across the entire battlefield, using the great attacks of the Sacred Sun Domain to attack the vital points of the enemy.

Sima Xian also used this opportunity to recover from the wounds he had just suffered and the spiritual energy he had consumed.

After both sides had erupted with power, balance strangely returned to the situation. The Temple Union had indeed killed many eighth step demon powerhouses, but the explosion of the magic cannons had taken many lives as well, making the humans lose a lot of their battle prowess. As for the battle between the ninth step powerhouses, both sides had basically suffered the same casualties. Overall, it was the demons who suffered slightly less. After all, the demon gods had the support of their demon god pillars. With the protection of their demon god pillars and the boost from their demon god transformation and other abilities, it was very difficult to kill demon gods unless they were caught off-guard, like what Lin Xin and Sima Xian did earlier.
