The genius who counterattacked the mainland

Chapter 299

The moment Xu Tiancai touched the dark blue crystal ball, he felt a vast, boundless flood of information flood into his mind like a surging tide. His eyes instantly became extremely complex, filled with shock, solemnity, and a hint of worry. The air around them seemed to freeze with this influx of information. Everyone stared at Xu Tiancai nervously, waiting for him to speak.

"This alien dimension is the remains of a battlefield from an ancient war between the Demon God and the gods, sealed here," Xu Tiancai said slowly, his voice slightly hoarse. "All the dangers we encounter are the result of the evil power left by the Demon God. This crystal ball is not only the key to escape, but also the hub for resealing this evil power. Once we activate the seal, this space will be violently unstable, and before the seal is completed, we must withstand the frenzied attacks of the Demon God's remnant."

Everyone's faces changed when they heard this. Ah Gang tightened his axe in his hand and shouted, "What's there to be afraid of? We've already overcome so many difficulties, why should we be afraid of this demon's remnant? At worst, we can just fight it!" His words were heroic, but the cold sweat on his forehead revealed his inner tension.

Lin frowned slightly. "But the remnant of this demon god must be extremely powerful. We can't act blindly. We have to discuss a foolproof plan first." The wind element surged gently around her, as if echoing her uneasy mood.

The Ice Princess stared into the crystal ball. "If this evil power is not sealed, once it leaks out, the entire continent will be plunged into disaster. We have no choice but to take the risk." The ice wand in her hand flashed with a cold blue light, as if gathering strength for the upcoming battle.

Su Yao gently plucked the strings of the zither, the sound was low and soothing, "Then let's work together to fight this difficulty."

Xu Tiancai nodded. "Let's set up a defensive formation first. Ah Gang will be in the front row to resist the attacks. Lin will control the wind element to interfere with the enemy. The Ice Princess and I will be responsible for outputting the attacks. Su Yao will use the music of the piano to heal our wounds and stabilize the morale of the troops in the back."

Everyone sprang into action. Agang stood at the front, legs spread wide, like a towering mountain. Eternal Dou Qi burned fiercely around him, forming a golden shield. Lin stood behind Agang, waving her staff. Wind elements converged in front of her, forming a series of whirlwind barriers. Within the whirlwinds were sharp blades of wind that flashed with cold light.

The Ice Princess stood beside Xu Tiancai, her ice wand raised high, muttering to herself. Chilly icy magic gathered around them, filling the air with icy mist and forming ice crystals in the air, like countless tiny ice swords. Xu Tiancai held the Star Sword, its stellar power flowing slowly through it like a group of dancing star spirits. His eyes were firm and deep, staring ahead, awaiting the appearance of the demon's remnant. Su Yao sat at the back, her guqin resting across her knees, her fingers resting lightly on the strings. The sound of the guqin rose, transforming into invisible sound waves that reverberated around the group, bringing a sense of tranquility and peace of mind to everyone.

Suddenly, the crystal ball blazed brightly, and a powerful dark aura emanated from it, quickly coalescing into a massive black figure in front. The demon god's remnant stood agile, several dozen feet tall, shrouded in a black mist. Its features were indistinct, with only two faint red lights flickering above its head, like will-o'-the-wisp fire from hell, emanating endless evil and resentment.

"How dare you, tiny human, try to seal me again!" The remnant of the demon god let out an earth-shaking roar, and the sound echoed in the space like thunder, making everyone's ears buzz, and the ground shook violently, as if a strong earthquake had occurred.

With that, the demon god's remnant swung his arm violently, and a black energy wave swept towards everyone like a tsunami. Wherever the energy wave passed, space twisted and deformed, emitting a creepy creaking sound.

Ah Gang roared, charging forward against the energy wave. He swung his battle axe, his eternal fighting spirit unleashing at full force. The axe blade collided with the energy wave, sending up a shower of dazzling sparks. "Come on, watch me break your evil power!" But the energy wave was too powerful. Ah Gang felt an overwhelming force, and his body slid backward uncontrollably, his feet carving deep grooves in the ground.

Seeing this, Lin manipulated the wind element to increase the power of the whirlwind barrier. Countless wind blades shot towards the energy wave. The wind blades cut and rubbed against the black energy, emitting a sharp whistling sound. However, the moment the wind blades came into contact with the energy wave, they were swallowed by the darkness and dissipated without a trace.

The Ice Princess swung her ice wand, and icy magic transformed into a massive ice dragon, which flew towards the remnant of the Demon God with its claws and fangs bared. Wherever the ice dragon passed, the air froze, forming patches of white frost. But the remnant of the Demon God simply waved his hand, and the ice dragon disintegrated in the black mist, turning into countless ice shards that drifted through the air.

Xu Tiancai unleashed his Star Steps, charging at the Demon God's remnant like lightning. He leaped high, his Star Sword slicing a brilliant arc through the air, slashing towards the Demon God's head. The stellar power of the Star Sword collided with the Demon God's dark aura, unleashing a surge of intense energy so blindingly bright it was nearly blinding. But the Demon God's remnant remained motionless, and Xu Tiancai was sent flying backward by the recoil, landing heavily on the ground.

Su Yao accelerated the speed of playing the piano, and the piano sound turned into an invisible healing force, flying towards the injured people. At the same time, the piano sound also interfered with the attack rhythm of the demon god's remnant to a certain extent, slowing its movement slightly.

Everyone's initial attacks were thwarted, and Xu Tiancai knew this wasn't going to work. The moment he landed, he quickly observed the Demon God's remnant's attack patterns and discovered that when it launched an attack, the dark aura at its core would briefly gather.

"Everyone, pay attention. When the demon's remnant attacks, its core energy will gather for a short time. That is its weakness!" Xu Tiancai shouted.

Upon hearing this, everyone regained their spirits. Agang charged at the Demon God's remnant once again, deliberately provoking it to attack. When the Demon God's remnant unleashed another wave of black energy, Agang withstood the impact and steadied himself. Lin then manipulated the wind element to form small tornadoes around the Demon God's remnant, disrupting its control over its core energy.

The Ice Princess compressed her ice magic to the extreme, forming a tiny ice ball that contained powerful energy. Su Yao played the strongest piano music, which turned into an invisible energy wave and merged with the ice ball.

Xu Tiancai saw the perfect moment. The moment the aura of the Demon God's remnant gathered, he unleashed his ultimate move, harnessing the power of the stars. "Shine the stars, shatter the demonic heavens!" He shouted, and the Star Sword shone brightly. Countless star power surged like a tide towards the core of the Demon God's remnant.

With everyone's concerted efforts, the demon's remnant roared in agony. Its body began to tremble violently, and the black mist began to thin.

"Keep attacking, don't stop!" Xu Tiancai shouted.

Everyone increased their attack intensity, and after a hard fight, the Demon God's remnant was finally temporarily suppressed by everyone's joint attack. But everyone knew that this was only a temporary victory, and the Demon God's remnant would soon strike back again.

At this moment, space began to violently tremble. Huge cracks appeared in the ground, from which spewed hot magma and acrid smoke. Lightning and thunder flashed in the sky, and purple lightning flashed through the clouds like a dragon, occasionally striking the ground and blasting huge craters into the ground.

"Oh no, the space seal is about to be activated, we must hold on!" Xu Tiancai shouted loudly.

However, the demon's remnant took advantage of the spatial turbulence to launch another, even more violent attack. It gathered all of its remaining dark energy, forming a massive black vortex that swept towards the crowd. The black vortex contained a powerful suction force, and everyone felt as if an invisible force was pulling at their souls, and their bodies were involuntarily thrown towards the vortex.

Agang gripped his battle axe tightly, stabbing the handle into the ground, attempting to resist the black vortex's pull. Lin manipulated the wind element to create an upward current beneath everyone's feet, helping to counter the suction. The Ice Princess and Xu Tiancai pooled their strength and fired a powerful beam of energy at the black vortex, attempting to break its pull. Su Yao played the piano with all her might, the music transforming into shields, protecting everyone's souls from the demon's lingering thoughts.

At this critical moment, Xu Tiancai suddenly felt a powerful resonance within the Star War God's inheritance. An ancient and mysterious power surged from the depths of his soul, merging with the power of the stars and instantly elevating his strength to a whole new level.

"I feel a new strength, everyone hold on!" Xu Tiancai shouted.

He injected this fused power into the Star Sword, which shone brightly. Ancient runes appeared on the sword, shimmering with a mysterious light. Xu Tiancai swung the Star Sword, slashing at the black vortex. This strike contained devastating power. Under the attack of the Star Sword, the black vortex began to crack, eventually shattering and dissipating.

Seeing the black vortex broken, the demon god's remnant roared in anger. Its body began to mutate, becoming even larger and more terrifying.

"Humans, you have completely angered me. I will make you pay a heavy price!" the devil roared angrily.

Everyone looked at the mutated remnant of the demon god, their hearts filled with worry. But their eyes remained firm, with no intention of retreating.

"Even if it costs our lives, we must stop it!" Xu Tiancai gripped the Star Sword tightly and said resolutely.

At this critical moment of life and death, everyone adjusted their tactics once again, preparing to face the more frenzied attacks of the demon god's remnant. The turbulence in space also became more intense, as if the end of the world was approaching...
