Divine Flame Crystal

Chapter 351: The Strange World That Cannot Be Escaped

The demon leader regretted sending those flying dragons to support the flanks. The Faraway Army had as many low-level demon soldiers as they wanted, but the existence of the demon dragon level was very valuable. Usually, these demon dragons were the mounts of some high-level demons. This time, he had a hard time gathering dozens of them in the battle for faith. He didn't expect to lose so many in one encounter. He couldn't even explain to the demons who lent him the demon dragons. A gloomy look flashed in the demon leader's eyes. In this case, he planned to give these guys dressed as mercenaries a fatal blow to make them regret coming to support. With an order, the air twisted and the mental fluctuations became extremely abnormal. Xingluo instantly noticed the movement here. When he looked over, he only saw the demon leader's flaming eyes, and there was no other existence. The demon creatures hidden in the dark had transparent bodies. These creatures had powerful illusion abilities. They could create extremely realistic illusions, causing observers to fall into confusion or fear. These phantoms have magical powers.

At the same time, the demon leader sent several demon dragons to follow. Although the phantom demon possessed powerful mental power and could create illusions to affect humans, its lethality was still lacking, so he let the demon dragons launch a fatal attack on humans who were trapped in hallucinations.

There are dozens of phantom demons in this demon army. Although each of them is only equivalent to a great magician, their strength in mental illusions is even comparable to that of a mage. These phantom demons came quietly, and even Xingluo neglected them. It was because the situation on the battlefield changed rapidly. Although Mo and others helped in commanding, it was the first time for them to participate in such a large-scale war. Moreover, there were very few recorded data on demons. Often after a battle, humans were either all killed or bewitched into becoming demons. Therefore, it was normal for Xingluo to ignore the phantom demons.

These phantom demons originally came to spread the dark faith, and they are also extremely important existences in the entire abyss. Now the battlefield commander has to throw them into the battlefield. If the flank is not resolved, when they merge with the main battlefield, the demon army will be completely defeated. These phantom demons that can bewitch people and tempt them to fall are the key protection targets. Not only are they accompanied by demon dragons, but they are also protected by layers of heavily armored demons. The demon leader finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the dozens of phantom demons protected in the middle.

Xingluo also observed the unusual movements on the main battlefield, and found that a large number of demons began to move towards him. He even felt dozens of powerful mental fluctuations among the group of demons. Xingluo's eyes sank slightly. He didn't know the situation over there, but he could definitely guess that extremely dangerous demons were about to arrive here. Now that the flank had been broken up, they still dared to send people over. The demons that came were probably more terrifying than the demon dragon.

Xingluo used all his mental power to cover the past, and finally found that there was a group of translucent demons in the center of the battle formation, as if they were condensed from mist or smoke, making them elusive. Under the light, their bodies would show hazy colors, sometimes clear, sometimes blurry. Their bodies have no fixed shape, and can change size and form freely, sometimes human-shaped, sometimes animal-shaped, and can even blend into the surrounding environment and become almost invisible. There is a faint light flashing, a faint blue-white, and sometimes other cold colors. This light gives people an unreal feeling. Despite the changeable forms, phantoms usually have certain common features, such as sharp ears, hollow eyes, long fingers or tentacles, and fluttering ribbon-like tails. Their fingers and tentacles seem to be able to penetrate matter directly, and can convey a sense of chill or fear even without touching the entity. This is one of the ways they cause psychological effects on their targets. Phantoms are surrounded by a faint energy field and halo, which is a manifestation of their magical power and a sign that they can affect the real world. They exude an ominous aura, which may be due to their coming from the non-material world, making their existence full of unknowns and dangers. They moved silently, as if they were gliding in the air. There was no sound of footsteps or wind, giving people the illusion of appearing suddenly and disappearing in an instant. If Xingluo had not had strong mental power and a peculiar method of meditation, he would not have been able to see so many details.

Xingluo's face darkened slightly, he had not expected that there was such a terrifying existence hidden in the demon army. They were heavily protected and could not be broken through on the physical level. Looking at the opponent's weird actions, he estimated that the magic attack would be greatly reduced. He just didn't know what means of attack these demons had. If they were too weird, he would have to temporarily pull these mercenaries off the battlefield, and then test them himself before making a decision. However, retreating before fighting would not only undermine morale, but also give the demon army time to breathe and reorganize their formation.

Xingluo didn't intend to sit and wait for death. Since the opponent hadn't rushed through the rain of arrows, he planned to take the lead and test the opponent. At that time, even if he really had to retreat, he could choose the most appropriate way. Xingluo disappeared, and when he appeared again, he was already around the phantom demon, but the space magic elements here were too chaotic and completely out of order. He couldn't teleport directly here, so he could only stop at a slightly farther distance, a thousand meters away, and began to release magic. As he expected, the space magic passed through his body, only involving some demon guards, and these weird demons were not affected at all.

The starfall attack also attracted the attention of the demon, but with the help of space magic, he was able to dodge it with ease.

The leader of the illusion demons showed disdain when he saw a magician who looked like a human. In the endless years, they didn't know how many such humans they had killed. He remembered that when he was born, he was thrown into a dark room by a strong man in the tribe. A man was sitting on a shaky wooden chair. The man tried to kill him, but physical attacks had no effect on him. After instinctively releasing the illusion, the man's eyes widened and quickly lost focus, as if he was deeply attracted by something. The surrounding environment began to distort, and the originally still furniture seemed to sway at the edge of the sight, as if in a dream.

The man's face was filled with fear and confusion. He tried to reach out and touch the air in front of him, but there seemed to be a scene that he could not touch - colorful lights and shadows flickered between his fingers, like a hazy ocean of illusions. His breathing was rapid, his heartbeat accelerated, but his body seemed to be bound by an invisible force, unable to escape from this strange world.
