Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest - Chapter 997

-----

Our entire army continued moving relentlessly. The Cultists, even with their near endless amount of Miasmic, Undead, and Demonic Monsters, were barely holding on. Their eyes widening as they saw their own members being massacred by our strongest members, while the rest, right behind them, ganged on the other cultists until their health points were reduced to zero.

Our advance was relentless, in less than five minutes, half the cultists were gone.

I kept moving forwards, my entire body overflowing with the many auras, buffs, and skill effects I could activate at once. My Spirit Draconic Beasts charged and attacked. Whenever one died, two more occupied their place.

The expanding domain and terrain created a powerful synergy, Mana and Spiritual Energy constantly cycling across all of us, both buffing our stats through the effects of my other Skills and replenishing our energies rapidly.

My Mana and Spirit Energy were constantly being emptied as I summoned more of these dragons, requiring a hundred seeds each, it wasn't cheap at all. But thanks to the effects of my Skills, my Mana came back rapidly. Even more when I was using my Blue Crown to conjure its Ice Spells and recover 10% of the damage dealt as MP!

"There she is! She can't be so strong after fighting so much!"

"Kill her, quickly!"

"Absorb the Demonite Crystals!"

A group of dozen more Cultists attacked me the moment they saw me approaching their Altar. We've already destroyed half of them, and we had to hurry. The "presence" I felt just before was slowly becoming more and more "physical", a looming shadow slowly started to form above the pit.

I saw them grab large fragments of Demonite, super concentrated with all the three evil elements together, and swallowing them. Their already monstrous bodies became ten times as large, but their minds... it seemed they lost their sense of self.

"RAAAARRRGH!"

The dozen cultists roared monstrously, rushing towards me. Their bodies growing countless tentacles as they started piercing the bodies of the monsters summoned by the pit, absorbing them to gain even more power.

"To think you would go so far for the Demon Kings..." I sighed, as I started moving faster and faster, clashing against them. "I've seen his memories, and I also pity him, but I simply can't let him just lay waste over the entire world because of that!"

"GRUUOOHHH!"

Three of them reached me, their bodies so disfigured there was little to distinct them from one another anymore. Each one of them resembling masses of sharp crystal spikes, black and red tentacles, and eyes across their bodies.

They opened their jaws, gathering energies and firing three beams of demonic energy against me. This energy was powerful enough to easily melt my own body and make it wither, and it could even hurt the soul itself.

Although I had a lot of stats and defensive power, I decided to not just take that head on. Transforming all my weapons into swords, including the shovel that had already broken and gone back to its original form, I unleashed a barrage of Heroic Legendary Sword Arts, blocking their beams.

"Amazing! You're so cool, Lady Planta!" Brisingra was cheering for me.

"Brisingra, keep your mother well protected! And everyone else around here if you can!" I told her, before leaping the empty air and reaching the skies.

Using my wings, I flew towards the Altar, the other cultists were attacked by all my Spirit Draconic Beasts and Mark and my friends. Mark was making sure they didn't move an inch, his giant, metallic body easily crushed and burned through them.

He was already a deadly fighter, but now that he could both become made of metal, and also covered in flames, he became an almost invincible sentinel.

His enormous, blazing sword cut through them, and his foot and fists crushed anybody fool enough to get closer..

"RAAAH!"

CRASH!

With a sharp kick, I shattered the Altar in front of me into pieces. With only four left, the summoning began to destabilize. The shadow looming above us was becoming weaker and unable to properly form itself.

"Keep going! We can do this, everyone! Keep fighting!"

As I roared, my Domain and Terrain extended even further. More and more spirits appeared, buffing everyone's bodies, armor, and weapons with holy light spirits.

The cultists were being pushed more and more.

We can do this!

RUMBLE!

Yet...

"RAAAAHHH!!!"

The furious roar of the Demon King reverberated across the entire landscape.

His looming shadow started to move, covered on black, crimson and blue flames.
