Chapter 383 Demonic Plant Self-Destruction
Seeing Lu Hao approach, Nan Yunyue smiled. Although she had forced the opponent to retreat, the opponent was not at a disadvantage and used life essence to recover from any slight injury, giving her no chance to kill him.
Now that Lu Hao has one person tied down, she can quickly kill him. "Minister Nan, leave this ninth-rank city lord to me. You focus all your efforts on dealing with the demonic plant on the other side."
As he spoke, Lu Hao attacked the Ninth-Rank City Lord, while Nan Yunyue took the opportunity to attack the demonic plant, separating the two.
"Young Lu, let's have a competition to see who can finish off their opponent first."
Nan Yunyue laughed and shouted.
"Minister Nan, how can this be compared? After all, what you're facing is a demonic plant, brimming with life essence, making it inherently difficult to kill."
"It's alright. After all, I've been at the ninth rank for so many years. I'm not necessarily weaker than you, kid."
Nan Yunyue laughed loudly and launched a rapid attack on the demonic plant in front of her.
Lu Hao didn't say anything more, but began to slash at the ninth-rank city lord with his sword.
Meanwhile, the ninth-rank city lord on the other side had turned green with rage. The human warriors opposite him had even bet their lives on killing him and the guardian deity, but he was helpless. After all, the person in front of him had killed several ninth-rank beings, and the woman from before was no pushover either. Without the life essence given by the guardian deity, he wouldn't have been able to withstand the attack just now.
Rumble!
The battle raged on. With Lu Hao and Axe King's kills, the humans gained several positive buffs, becoming increasingly courageous in battle. On the other hand, the underground warriors were subjected to negative buffs, becoming more and more timid and unwilling to engage in direct conflict with the human warriors.
The rumbling sound continued.
As night falls, the once pitch-black cavern is now as bright as day!
The collisions of countless qi and energy created explosions that illuminated the entire underground cavern. Meanwhile, the fighting on the cavern side was losing morale. After all, they had arrived as thirteen ninth-rank warriors against nine. Moreover, to deal with Lu Hao, Nan Yunyue and Zhang Weiyu had deployed a lineup primarily focused on delaying the enemy. Their only mistake was underestimating the combat strength of human ninth-rank warriors. They initially fell into a disadvantageous position, and then Axe King seized the opportunity to kill one, instantly changing the situation. Axe King then restrained one ninth-rank warrior, allowing Lu Hao to kill two more. From then on, the situation was completely reversed. The remaining ninth-rank warriors, seeing the situation unfolding, knew that if Lu Hao and Nan Yunyue killed them again, their lives would be in danger.
These ninth-rank warriors are filled with hatred! They hate the disappearance of the Rose King and the Tooth King. If they hadn't disappeared and had joined forces to fight the resurrected warriors, they would never have allowed the enemy to achieve such great results.
=====
The next moment, a furious roar that could be heard for thousands of miles echoed throughout the underground cave!
"All ninth-rank officials in the forbidden zone, I hereby command you, by the True King, to mobilize!"
Upon hearing the voice, Lu Hao could sense the power contained within it, estimating it to be roughly equivalent to his own. This True King was no match for him. Once he expanded his Origin World further, defeating him would be effortless. His mental energy followed the direction of the voice, and after traveling hundreds of kilometers, he saw the two figures confronting each other on Mount Yuhai. "How dare you!"
Just as the True King of the Underworld finished drinking, the human powerhouse who was confronting him also spoke up. The next moment, a roar resounded throughout the Southern Underworld, and at the same time, the human powerhouse heard another furious shout that shook the heavens and the earth: "Kill them all!"
Nan Yunyue's expression changed drastically when she first heard the True King of the Underground Cave's order, but now she was overjoyed and roared, "Kill! Kill all these beasts!"
"withdraw!"
"They can't all perish here!"
"Evacuate immediately!"
The ninth-rank underground warrior shouted loudly.
At the same time, he fled as quickly as possible, disregarding his own injuries.
Seeing that the ninth-rank city lord in front of him was willing to lose an arm to escape, Lu Hao didn't pay him any attention. After all, it would take a long time for the city lord to recover after losing an arm.
Most importantly, this ninth-rank city lord has nothing on him, not even a divine weapon. But even if he did have one, he probably wouldn't dare use it, since the Demon Fate lineage is also involved in the battle. If they discover the divine weapon, they might start fighting amongst themselves in the next moment.
Lu Hao slashed at the demonic plant opposite Nan Yunyue. Only this one and the one next to it remained. This one was the most seriously injured and could be taken down quickly. Otherwise, the True King on the other side of the cave would definitely prohibit the battle of the ninth rank in the next moment. After all, if all the ninth rank were killed, what would happen to the royal city?
Zhang Weiyu shared the same idea as Lu Hao and also attacked the demonic plant, determined to leave it behind. The next moment, two blades and a spear shadow attacked the demonic plant. The phantom covered the sky and the aftershocks spread out, and some seventh and eighth grade underground cave warriors who were trying to escape were instantly killed by the aftershocks of the phantom.
The targeted ninth-grade demonic plant also sensed the aura of death. Faced with life and death, the ninth-grade demonic plant desperately used its spiritual power, even burning its life essence, but it still could not withstand these three attacks. At most, it could only diminish a little of the power, but compared to the overall effect, it did not have a significant impact. In just an instant, three large holes were pierced through the ninth-grade demonic plant, and its life essence was leaking out. The next moment, Nan Yunyue erupted again, roaring, and a thousand-meter-long blade of light instantly appeared in the void. Zhang Weiyu was not to be outdone, and his divine weapon spear burst forth with the power of a divine weapon, stabbing towards the demonic plant.
Compared to them, Lu Hao's attack was rather unremarkable. He only unleashed a blood-red blade of light. However, even a ninth-grade demonic plant could sense a stronger aura from this ordinary blade of light than from the other two attacks. After all, Lu Hao had used 400,000 calories of his blood energy for this strike.
The ninth-grade demonic plant, shaped like a large flower, knew it couldn't withstand this attack, but it also didn't want its life essence accumulated over many years to fall into the hands of these enemies. "Hiss!"
The ninth-grade giant flower let out a miserable wail, and a burst of extremely strong energy suddenly erupted from its body.
Nan Yunyue and Zhang Weiyu's expressions changed drastically upon seeing this, and they quickly retreated, not forgetting to take the surrounding human martial artists with them. Lu Hao, naturally, did not want to test the power of a ninth-grade self-destruction with his own body, so he also quickly retreated. It can only be said that this big flower still had some backbone. This was the first high-grade underground plant Lu Hao had encountered that had self-destructed. After all, a high-grade plant in the underground world had a very high status, and could at least control the life and death of countless people. They were reluctant to die, let alone self-destruct. The demonic plants were relatively simple. They only knew that the human martial artists wanted to kill them, and since they were going to die anyway, they might as well self-destruct.
The next moment, a deafening roar, comparable to the explosion that had shattered Rose City, erupted from here.
The land here vanished instantly, leaving only a scorched crater thousands of meters deep. An ordinary ninth-grade self-destruction wouldn't have such power, but the demonic plant contained a large amount of life essence. So it wasn't just a ninth-grade self-destruction, but also the self-destruction of life essence that caused such a huge commotion.
Damn it.
Nan Yunyue cursed inwardly, watching as the life essence she was about to obtain slipped away.
