Chapter 426 Killing the Crimson Rift Demon, Chapter Returns to Flying Bird City
With his peak fourth-realm mental power, the spatial rift he released could only severely injure the Crimson Demon, while Jiang Han was able to instantly kill it. Doesn't that mean Jiang Han's mental power has reached the fifth realm?!
Thinking of this, Ai Jiangtu was filled with shock. Was such a powerful mental force something he should have at his age?
Although Mu Ningxue didn't see it, judging from the reactions of others, it seemed that Jiang Han had saved her. After dealing with the two Crimson Demons that were bothering her, she thanked Jiang Han and then went on to deal with the other Crimson Demons.
The Crimson Rift Demon, which was engaged in a fierce battle with the Skeleton Nether Dragon, soon realized that the number of its subjects was decreasing. Enraged, the Crimson Rift Demon was covered in bloody light, and its bloody demonic power condensed into countless crescent-shaped blood blades, which were slashed towards the frozen ring-shaped sea area.
The Crimson Rift Demon couldn't locate Jiang Han and the others for the time being, so it had to break through the ice layer of the ring-shaped sea first. Once the frozen sea was broken, the strength of it and its people would increase several times over.
"Swish! Swish! Swish!!"
The crescent-shaped blood blades shot into the ice layer of the ring-shaped sea like raindrops. Cracks came from the ice layer, which was full of cracks. Seawater kept pouring out from the depths below, but before the Crimson Rift Demon could completely break through the ice with the seawater, Jiang Han sealed it in an ice coffin with the Ice Sealing Coffin.
"Hurry up and finish off this crimson rift demon quickly." Jiang Han gave the order to the skeletal Nether Dragon through his consciousness.
As he spoke, Jiang Han detonated the dozen or so Crimson Demons and hundreds of Sea Monkeys under his control. While killing countless sea monsters, he replenished the Skeleton Nether Dragon with countless Soul Flames, allowing it to kill the Crimson Rift Demon by consuming its Soul Flames.
Upon sensing the Skeleton Nether Dragon's intentions, the Crimson Rift Demon's crimson demonic power began to surge violently, even causing the ice coffin sealing it to tremble. Moreover, the frequency of the tremors increased, and if this continued, the Crimson Rift Demon would break free from the ice coffin's seal in less than a minute.
But would Jiang Han and the Skeleton Nether Dragon give the Crimson Rift Demon that chance? The answer is naturally no.
The skeletal Nether Dragon opened its mouth and inhaled sharply, drawing all the soul fire into its mouth. Immediately, the soul fire flickering in its eye sockets became much stronger.
After the Skeleton Nether Dragon finished digesting the soul fire it had absorbed, a strange, eerie green flame ignited on its body, much like the Purgatory Bone Dragon in a certain online game in Jiang Han's previous life—no, calling it the Purgatory Bone Dragon would be more accurate.
The Skeleton Nether Dragon can unleash formidable combat power by burning its soul fire, but this method has a drawback: it cannot be sustained for too long. Every minute of the battle burns the primordial soul fire of the undead, and if the primordial soul fire cannot be nourished by the end of the battle, it will be close to truly being annihilated.
To nourish the primordial soul fire of the dead, one needs to find an extremely yin place or use special rare and precious materials such as yin energy crystals.
However, the undead that Jiang Han revived through the simplified version of "Infernal Purgatory," namely "Frosty Purgatory," are different from other undead. They can strengthen their own primordial soul fire by devouring soul fire or undead crystals. This is the method by which creatures such as the Skeleton Nether Dragon and the Undead Giant Lizard Pseudo-Dragon quickly advance.
This is why Jiang Han wanted to detonate those newly resurrected undead. But if it were any other necromancer, they wouldn't dare let their undead creatures fight like that, because the cost would be too high and not worth it!
The Bone Nether Dragon was incredibly fast. Upon reaching the frozen Crimson Rift Demon, it swung its sharp bone claws and pierced the demon within the ice coffin. Naturally, the Crimson Rift Demon was unwilling to die under the Bone Nether Dragon's claws.
Immediately, the Crimson Rift Demon was enveloped in crimson demonic power. If it were before, the Crimson Rift Demon might have been able to resist, but now, the Skeleton Nether Dragon, whose entire body was shrouded in soul fire, had changed its attack from a physical attack to a soul attack.
"Pfft!" The bone claw burning with eerie green flames easily broke through the blood-red demonic power's defense and pierced into the crimson rift demon's head. With a gentle twist of the bone claw, the crimson rift demon completely stopped struggling.
When the Skeleton Nether Dragon killed the Crimson Rift Demon, Jiang Han received a sum of system points. However, after the large amount of system points he received from the Ancient King, this amount seemed insignificant. Nevertheless, the damaged commander-level weapon was still a considerable gain.
"Holy crap!!" Mo Fan, who had just dealt with two Crimson Demons, was so shocked that he blurted out.
"Is this still the Jiang Han I know? Instantly casting high-level magic, is that something a normal person can do?" Zhao Manyan was equally astonished, his eyes widening in surprise.
"We didn't even know his full strength before? How did he cultivate for half a year?!" Even Mu Ningxue, known as the Ice Beauty, was shocked by Jiang Han's methods just now.
As for Guan Yu, Nan Yu, Jiang Shaoxu, Ai Jiangtu and others, they were also stunned, and some even began to wonder if they had dragged down the average level of the National Team.
The members of the National Team are all top talents from the country's top universities or powerful forces. Their strength is generally between the mid-level peak and high-level. Even those with outstanding talents can only barely release high-level magic. But now Jiang Han has actually cast a high-level ice magic instantly. Is this something a newly entered high-level mage can do?
"Ahem." Jiang Han coughed lightly and said helplessly, "Hey everyone, is this a time for chatting?"
Only then did everyone realize that the crisis was not over yet, so they hurriedly went to hunt down the surviving Crimson Demons. The ring-shaped sea area was frozen, and the morale of the Crimson Demons whose leader had been killed was extremely low. Before long, with the help of the Skeleton Nether Dragon and Jiang Han, everyone cleared the sea monsters off the island.
This siege of the Crimson Demon made the rest of the National Government team realize how terrifying Jiang Han was, and some of the team members who were previously unconvinced by Jiang Han shut their mouths.
······
After everyone returned to Fei Niao City, Lin Junxian of the Lin Group was overjoyed to welcome Jiang Han and the others. How could he not come to greet them?
This is an extermination of the entire Crimson Demon Clan! Their combat power is absolutely terrifying, and the round trip only took a day. Back then, the municipal government sent out a guard team to fight them for several days, but they ended up with heavy losses. Now, these young people have actually succeeded.
After listening to Ai Jiangtu's account, Lin Junxian seemed to realize something and pointed at Jiang Han and the others, asking, "You guys wouldn't happen to be members of the National Team selected this year, would you???"
What is Lin Junxian's identity? He is the president of the Lin Group. Although his family's power is not as huge as Zhao Manyan's family, the Zhao Consortium, he still has some special information channels, so he knows that the National Team members have been selected this year.
