Chapter 985: Killing the Blackshell General



Following the Blackshell General's earth-shaking roar of warning, he quickly conjured a large-scale divine shield over the Celestial Army with his powerful cultivation base at the seventh stage of the Divine Star Realm.

At his level, it was far too easy to cover entire cities with his divine energy in an instant.

However, the Blackshell General had only covered the Celestial Army and didn't care about the Emperor Crabs.

To begin with, most Celestials at the Blackshell General's level would have been reluctant to use such a large-scale divine spell. After all, not only would it generate large spirit energy fluctuations, but it would also consume a lot of divine energy.

Alas, the Blackshell General never imagined that his powerful, large-scale barrier was as weak as thin paper in front of Valefor's Asura Flames.

When the arrow rain of Asura Flames struck the large-scale divine barrier, holes instantly appeared. A small portion of the Asura Flame Arrows scattered along the barrier's surface, gnawing away at its divine energy.

As for the rest of the Asura Flame Arrows, they continued to rain down on the horrified Celestial soldiers.

"Ahhh!"

Horrific screams resounded as Valefor's dreadful Asura Flames incinerated the vulnerable Celestial soldiers. Even being burned alive by other flames wouldn't produce such terrible and agonized screams.

No, they were being burned and eaten by the Asura Flames at the same time.

Regardless of the defenses the Celestial soldiers put up to defend themselves, it was all useless in front of the unstoppable Asura Flames-Their divine spells turned into

nothingness while their spirit tools were reduced to trash.

The Emperor Crab Clan's side was even more tragic.

Millions of its kind got decimated in a single brief barrage. There were simply too many Emperor Crabs to avoid the thousand falling arrows of Asure Flames.

The one-sided slaughter instantly shook the Blackshell General.

With his proud cultivation base at the seventh stage of the Divine Star Realm, he didn't believe the Great Devils could rival him, even if they stepped into Pangea.

However, he also recognized that Valefor's Asura Flames could only be something from Chaos, even if he didn't know who he was. Valefor's familiar appearance did cross his mind, but he failed to connect it to the Great Devil Slayer called Vaan Raphna.

The gap in the information between the two was just too great for him to force the connection.

Even if they looked the same, few would believe they were the same people.

"W-Wait, Your Excellency!" the Blackshell General pleaded to Valefor, saying, "You must not be from around here. There's no need for you to participate in this conflict. Please, this is Pangea's issue. We didn't come here to fight you."

"No, you came here to die," Valefor indifferently replied, continuing his slaughter.

Against the non-sentient Emperor Crabs, Valefor did not even bother antagonizing them to maximize his harvest of slaughter energy. After all, talking to them would be like talking to a brick wall.

On the other hand, while the Celestial Army had many experts for Valefor to exploit, he didn't have the luxury of time to deal with them slowly since he had to deal with all three battlefronts simultaneously.

"W-Wait!" the Blackshell General cried.

Valefor indifferently waved his hand in the sky, and a giant palm of Asura Flames descended on the Blackshell General. He had to take out the head to cripple the Celestial Army's chain of command.

The Blackshell General immediately sensed the overwhelming power of annihilation from the incoming hand of black-red flames, and every cell in his body screamed danger.

As such, the Blackshell General quickly fled away from the Celestial Army, abandoning his soldiers despite knowing that such an attack would wipe them out.

However, Valefor's Asura Palm did not continue to descend on the Celestial Army. Instead, he redirected its course and chased after the Blackshell General, even accelerating to catch up.

"Nooo!!" the Blackshell General howled in fear, sensing his imminent doom.

When the Blackshell General found himself at the crossroads of life and death, he no longer held back his reservations; he unleashed all the divine energy from his Divine World.

Swoosh!

The Blackshell General suddenly became overflowing with divine energy. The bluish energy that poured out of his body was so thick and concentrated that it was like heavy water.

When it expanded beyond his body, it was a sea hovering over the sky, except one formed from raw energy.

The divine energy rapidly transformed into a raging water dragon and rammed against Valefor's incoming Asura Palm.

However, the expected steam explosion resulting from the clash of fire and water did not occur. The two forces simply annihilated each other-or rather, the Asura Palm annihilated

the water dragon.

The overbearing Asura Flames ate away at the water dragon while the latter received constant replenishment of divine energy to push back the Asura Palm.

The Blackshell General succeeded in stalling the Asura Palm, but only for a brief moment. When Valefor got slightly more serious, the Asura Palm quickly consumed the divine water

dragon.

"No-!"

The Blackshell General gave one final short cry before disappearing to the unstoppable Asura Palm.

After the Celestial Army lost its general, Valefor did not even spare it a glance before slicing apart space to move to the next battlefield.

However, even after he left, a suffocating silence filled the ranks of the Celestial soldiers. A series of thunderous storms raged in their hearts and minds, crippling them with hesitation. What were they supposed to do with their general gone? Who was going to give them orders? Were they supposed to keep fighting?

Even someone as powerful as their Blackshell General died a dog's death to that dreadfuln/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

being.

Weren't they asking for complete annihilation by pressing the invasion?

When they initiated this war, they knew there would be a great slaughter. Unfortunately, they weren't the ones doing the slaughtering; they were the ones getting slaughtered!

"R-Retreat!"

A noble Celestial quickly fled before he even gave the order. He held the rank of three-star commander, but it was only acquired through powerful connections.

Nevertheless, another three-star Celestial Commander instantly pierced his head with a penetrating divine water art.

"Deserters deserve death! Who else dares to run?!"
