Chapters 172 and 173: Eighth-Order Powerhouse
On the other side, Jiang Feng put the corpse of the seventh-order bloodthirsty mad demon into the storage ring, which was already the eleventh seventh-order demon he had hunted.
As for the eighth-order demons, their battlefield was in the sky, facing the powerhouses of the human race above the eighth order.
Jiang Feng's battlefield was located between the ground and the sky, and he mainly faced enemies of the sixth and seventh orders. This also made his meritorious value rise rapidly.
Of course, the current general-level No. 21 Demon Hunting Regiment is no short of meritorious deeds.
Therefore, Jiang Feng only noticed his rapidly growing system coin.
Before arriving at the battlefield, Jiang Feng deliberately looked at the alchemy furnace in the system mall.
He now needs to earn 50,000 merits to upgrade the alchemy furnace, and the upgraded alchemy furnace only retains the original alchemy effect and can become a pill in one second.
This ability will solve Jiang Feng's current problem of excessive accumulation of demon corpses.
As more and more high-level demon hunters discovered the task of collecting demon corpses issued by Jiang Feng, there would be a lot of demon corpses waiting for him to settle the task rewards every month on the mission tower of the demon hunting group.
Of course, the task reward is settled by the mission tower to the demon hunting group, and Jiang Feng only needs to go to the mission tower of the demon hunting group regularly to pay the merit value of the settlement.
Before this battle, Jiang Feng's system coins were fourteen thousand eight hundred, and after hunting ten seventh-order powerhouses, Jiang Feng's system coins had risen to forty-four thousand eight hundred, plus the sixth-order demon clan that he hunted casually, Jiang Feng's merit value had actually exceeded fifty thousand.
However, Jiang Feng currently not only needed to upgrade the alchemy furnace, but also other skills, such as the bloodthirsty aura.
Upgrading the skills in the skill mall from lv1 to lv2 costs 20,000 system coins for each upgrade, so Jiang Feng has a long way to go.
Jiang Feng froze in the air, looking at the other side of the battlefield.
A teenager who is only 1.6 meters tall, with smooth hair, a thin body, and beautiful eyebrows. However, his fighting style is fierce, holding a large sword that is longer than his height, and the blade is engraved with elaborate flame inscriptions, and each slash will bring blazing flames.
However, he was not human, and many fine dragon scales could be seen on his body, and even his cheeks were covered with dark red scales like lava.
His strength was terrifying, and he was chasing a seventh-order two-headed fowl demon at the moment.
Because the strength of the two is not equal at all.
The two-headed demon vulture was also very aggrieved in his heart, obviously everyone was a seventh order, but he couldn't even catch the other party's move. As soon as they fought, they were seriously injured.
What made him most depressed was that he couldn't fight, and he couldn't run.
Behind the young man was a pair of huge flame wings, as if the god of flames had descended into the world, emitting extremely high-temperature flames between his hands and feet, capable of incinerating all the enemies around him to ashes.
That kind of flame is not like something that a seventh-order powerhouse can grasp at all, even if an eighth-order powerhouse faces this kind of flame, he must face it carefully, otherwise he will suffer a big loss.
Moreover, the huge pair gave the boy the ability to fly, and it was extremely fast, much faster than the two-headed vulture itself.
So I can't beat it and I can't run away.
In the end, this seventh-order two-headed demon vulture could only die in aggrieved form, and was cut in half by the flame dagger in the young man's hand.
This young man was Jiang Hao, and the Flame Broadsword in his hand was the Flame Overlord Sword that Jiang Feng had purchased for him.
When this kid saw this big knife for the first time, the excitement in his eyes could not be hidden, because he liked the fierce appearance and gorgeous inscription so much.
And, it's a piece of equipment that can withstand his terrifying flames.
Although Jiang Hao didn't know any combat skills at all, just with his extreme high-temperature flames and the external spiritual power that was about to break 10,000, he was already able to show the power of this big sword to the fullest.
The reason why Jiang Feng summoned Jiang Hao over was not only to earn enough system coins needed to upgrade, but also because the Terran was still at a weak disadvantage in this war.
Although with the support of alliance reinforcements and dozens of demon hunting groups, the situation has improved.
However, the greatest threat to mankind has always been not the large number of demon armies, but the twelve demon god pillars that shine with dazzling brilliance.
This means that here in Zhennan Pass, at least twelve demon gods have gathered.
And every Demon God has at least a ninth-order combat power.
Even the bottom twelve Demon Gods, after using the increase of the Demon God Pillar, his strength was able to break through the bottleneck of the peak of the Eighth Order and forcibly improve to the Ninth Order.
And Zhennanguan itself is the headquarters of the Priest Temple, and most of the strong people here are priests, and even if they are ninth-order priests, fighting is not what they are good at.
Under the frenzied hunting of Jiang Feng and Jiang Hao, the situation on the low-altitude battlefield has been weakly reversed, and human beings have gradually gained the upper hand here.
Of course, what really determines the victory or defeat on the battlefield is the duel between the top powerhouses on the high-altitude battlefield.
The battle is still ongoing, and the demon army seems to be endless, constantly pouring up from the head of Zhennan Pass, and the killing is inexhaustible.
The general-level twenty-one demon hunting group led the other four demon hunting regiments around them to still struggle to advance the battle line, but the pressure they faced was also huge.
Jiang Feng and Jiang Hao are still playing an important role on the battlefield at the moment, that is, to intercept the demon powerhouses on the aerial battlefield from descending on the ground battlefield.
Because not every area on the battlefield has an existence like the general-level twenty-one demon hunting group or the general-level twenty-second demon hunting group that can work together to hunt the seventh-order demons.
Once the high-level demons descend on the ground battlefield, they will cause huge damage to the low-level human warriors, and can tear apart the human battle line in a very short time.
Suddenly, on the ground battlefield, a black light fell from the sky, and with a bang, it smashed directly into the counterattacking army of the Temple Alliance.
In the violent roar, one purple-black bubble after another burst outward, and at least dozens of warriors of the Six Great Temples who couldn't dodge dissolved in that purple-black bubble.
It was a handsome man, even identical to a human, but with purple eyes and silver hair over a shawl.
He looked unusually luxurious in his outfit, with many dark purple lines on it, fair skin, and a handsome appearance.
This is a man like Long Haochen, with a face that even women would be jealous of.
However, compared to Long Haochen, this man is still slightly deficient in appearance.
He stretched out his slender and white fingers, and in the flick of his fingers, a ball of purple-black light shone and was ejected, falling into the crowd of the six major temples, bursting out with a purple-black black light.
And this man's position is right in front of the general-level No. 21 Demon Hunting Group and the general-level No. 22 Demon Hunting Group.
There were quite a few purple-black clusters of light that fell into the two demon hunting groups.
On the side of the general-level twenty-one demon hunting group, Wang Ming bore the brunt of the attack, setting up the Ming Wang shield in front of everyone, and Jiang Xinran also added a shield to him in time.
I saw that a small ball of purple-black light smashed down on the Ming King Shield, and the first thing that shattered was the Divine Protection Shield that Jiang Feng had attached to Wang Ming, and then the two cold ice shields that Jiang Xinran had attached to it.
In this instant, Jiang Xinran's ability to complete two ice shields was already her limit, and I believe that no one in the same level could do better than her.
But this still couldn't stop the purple-black ball of light. The moment the two came into contact, the purple-black ball of light erupted with powerful power, directly shattering the two ice shields.
Next, there is Wang Ming's own defense.
After perceiving that this purple-black ball of light had extremely powerful attack power, a thick earth wall instantly rose in front of Wang Ming's body, and the rich earth elemental aura condensed, trying to block this blow.
Finally, after the consumption of a total of four defensive skills, the power contained in this purple-black ball of light was consumed a lot, and finally fell on the Ming King Shield.
Wang Ming's legs were half-squatting, concentrating and calming, his body was as steady as a rock, and he finally blocked the blow.
On the side of the general-level No. 22 Demon Hunting Group, Long Haochen bore the brunt of the attack, horizontal shield and holy shield technique.
However, he clearly underestimated the power of the blow. Or in such a short period of time, he couldn't do more, and Lin Xin, who was a good defender, couldn't react and attach a shield to it.
Therefore, Long Haochen was almost overturned, not only was the Holy Shield Technique broken, but even the light on the Brilliant Holy Shield was a little darker.
How powerful is that?
Everyone was amazed.
Whether it was the general-level twenty-one demon hunting group or Long Haochen's demon hunting group, it was the first time they had faced such a powerful enemy, and just a casual blow made them feel extremely pressured.
Long Haochen and the others didn't know the enemy in front of them, but they were able to guess the identity of the other party.
And everyone in the general-level twenty-one demon hunting group can judge from their appearance and dress that this is an authentic Moon Demon clan powerhouse, and his strength is at the eighth order.
Eighth-Order powerhouse!
This was the first time that everyone had faced an eighth-order powerhouse, and most of the members of the team were fifth-order, and even in Long Haochen's demon hunting group, even he himself was still at the peak of the fifth-order.
Seeing this eighth-order moon demon, Long Haochen and the others sank in their hearts. The people of the general-level twenty-one demon hunting group also felt that the situation was serious.
The eighth-order Moon Demon in front of him was supposed to be on the high-altitude battlefield, but he was able to pull out and come to the ground battlefield at this moment, which meant that the demons in the high-altitude battlefield still had some remaining strength, which was by no means a good thing for the Temple Alliance and the Exorcism Pass.
The young moon demon looked arrogant, and his eyes showed a deep disdain. Because there was no one on the ground battlefield who was no match for him, and even their most powerful skills couldn't hurt the Moon Demon in the slightest.
There was a purple shield of light on his body that kept all attacks at bay, while he slaughtered the human warriors.
In the general-level twenty-one demon hunting group, Jiang Feng's three clones had already arrived and surrounded the Moon Demon in the middle from three positions.
At present, in this area, only Jiang Feng's clone was sure that he could temporarily resist this eighth-order moon demon.
As for successfully hunting this eighth-order moon demon, this was something that no one dared to think about.
Everyone in the general-level twenty-one demon hunting group knew that Jiang Feng was very strong, but no matter how strong he was, it was impossible to kill this moon demon by crossing the two orders.
Jiang Feng's internal spiritual power now reached seven thousand, and this Moon Demon's internal spiritual power was at least thirty thousand, and the gap was too big.
In the demoted No. 22 Demon Hunting Group, Long Haochen reluctantly turned around and looked at his partners. Everyone also saw a firm and decisive gaze in Long Haochen's eyes.
"Han Yu, what are the ten rules of knights?"
"Humility, honesty, mercy, valor, justice, sacrifice, honor, perseverance, love, justice."
"Follow me." Long Haochen gritted his teeth, and after seeing Jiang Feng's three subordinates stepping forward to take the initiative to face the eighth-order Moon Demon, he didn't dare to fall behind.
Moreover, he knew that even if Jiang Feng's clone was three, it was impossible for him to be the opponent of the Eighth Order Moon Demon, and at this moment, only by working together could he stop this Eighth Order Moon Demon.
And as a child of light, a member of the demon hunting group, he has an unshirkable responsibility.
I saw more than a dozen people from the general-level No. 21 Demon Hunting Group and the general-level No. 22 Demon Hunting Group heading towards the eighth-order Moon Demon, trying to gather everyone's strength to stop it, at least not to let this eighth-order Moon Demon continue to slaughter human warriors unscrupulously.
Long Haochen took out a few pills and was about to take them, when suddenly, an arm pressed on his shoulder, and a slender figure appeared beside Long Haochen.
Jiang Feng's eyes were full of praise for Long Haochen, because Long Haochen had no honor in his heart at this moment, let alone interests. What he wanted to do was to block the Moon Demon's attack as much as possible, so that more warriors and mages of the Temple Alliance could survive. That's all.
As a son of light, Long Haochen really didn't say in many ways that he could do something that Jiang Feng couldn't do.
"Let me come." Jiang Feng spoke, and then his figure crossed Long Haochen and gradually walked towards the eighth-order Moon Demon who was besieged by three clones.
After Long Haochen saw Jiang Feng appear, he was also happy in his heart, stopped moving forward, and chose to wait and see.
Of course, he didn't let down his vigilance, because he was always ready to fend off the attack of the Eighth Order Moon Demon for Jiang Feng.
Because in his opinion, even Jiang Feng couldn't stop the eighth-order Moon Demon.
Every time Jiang Feng took a step, the momentum on his body became stronger, and in his golden eyes, the gold was even more brilliant.
The fighting spirit in his heart soared, and he longed to fight the truly strong.
Since his cultivation broke through to the sixth order, the ordinary seventh-order demon clan was no longer his opponent, and now, even if he was at the peak of the seventh order, he was able to fight with it, and he was confident that he could defeat the other party.
Now, even if he was the original leader Wu Yan, he was confident to fight with him, even if the other party had obtained the Mithril Pedestal Battle Armor, which belonged to the most powerful rank among the seventh-order knights.
Therefore, he had always longed to meet the Eighth Order, and he wanted to verify how much gap there was between himself and the Eighth Order.
At this moment, he lit up the golden boy, and the violent blood skill was brought into full play.
The Bloody Skills obtained through the Blood Pact have always been an important part of his ability to fight beyond the ranks, but in this war, he has never used Bloody Blood.
After one of the clones was repelled by the Eighth-Order Moon Demon, Jiang Feng instantly arrived in front of the Eighth-Order Moon Demon, and the Holy Sword Heavenly Destiny in his hand shot out a three-foot-long brilliant light blade.
Shura Thorn.
This move can be said to be the most powerful attack skill Jiang Feng has mastered outside of the Galaxy Slash.
And this blow also exerted its due power.
