Chapter 21: Preventing the Demon God\'s Descent

"The black magic circle formation has been destroyed, and the anti-magic domain has partially collapsed. Initiate a counterattack!" Ely declared her command to her people.

More than a hundred figures clad in white and gold cloaks came from hiding to take down the demonic cultivators.

"My magic power is back!"

"I can use my magic again!"

"It\'s all thanks to the holy saintess!"

"Revenge!"

"Punish these evil people!"

The academy\'s mages also immediately wield their magic staff and sword to strike back at the evil ninjas.

"It\'s all because of you!" The Grand Master-level ninja charged at the holy saintess, but the dean immediately moved to intercept him.

"You are not going anywhere. Your opponent is me." The dean summoned an earthen chain to shackle his opponent\'s movements. Surprisingly, it was so easy to subdue the leader and mastermind, thanks to the sea stone handcuffs put on by the holy saintess.

The situation was changed significantly since the anti-magic domain\'s destruction. The oppressed mages were currently attacking and suppressing the demonic cultivators.

*Rumble!* *Rumble!*

Thunder rumbled in the spiraling dark clouds. The lightning sparks spread everywhere, and the temperature dropped significantly.

The dense dark energy radiated out from the gap beyond the darkness. The heavenly thunder tried to prevent the inevitable, but the gate had been partially formed. The Demon God of Necromancy had expected the tribulation if he came to the mortal realm, but he wasn\'t there unprepared.

However, why is the dimensional gap so small?

That question arose in the Demon God of Necromancy\'s mind as the gap was only enough to see into the mortal realm like a face-sized window. He blamed his undependable followers.

Look at that result. It was still under Ely\'s prediction. She prevented the massacre before the black magic circle was torn down. The sacrifice offering ceremony was thwarted, and she could proceed to the next stage and try to kill a God.

The dimensional gate was not completely opened, so she could still prevent the Demon God from descending if the Annihilation Star Formation and her most potent offensive artifact failed to kill him.

"Hahaha! Cough, cough, the Demon God has arrived in the mortal world! With this, the Xuehui Blood Society will return to its former glory! Fill this continent with blood and sacrifice for us to ascend to the pinnacle!" The Grand Master-level ninja coughed out of blood due to the continued attacks from the dean, but he was the one who laughed in the end.

"How could this happen? You crazy lunatic beyond saving. A Demon God, you say?" The dean turned pale as he finally understood that his situation was the worst

As far as he knew, the strongest human alive was the Demi-God, but they were usually in seclusion. If the Demon God of the upper realm manages to descend, the world will fall into chaos. Humanity would suffer irreparable damage.

"Activate the defense mechanism. This is not a drill or simulation. The Demon God will descend!"

"Prepare to face the ultra-strong enemy. We have to prevent the Demon God from descending!"

"Although the chance of us surviving is minuscule, we must buy time for reinforcements to arrive!"

The senior mages cast several high-level protective magic to prevent the terrible sense of oppression from the dark magic from affecting the students. The instructors and teachers immediately activated the academy\'s defense mechanism.

The Lumina City\'s great array formation was activated automatically as it detected the disaster class threat. The massive dome-like barrier enveloped the entire city.

The dark clouds gathered and formed a gigantic demonic-clawed hand. It was like a bubble popped by a simple touch. The city\'s dome barrier collapsed when it made contact with the Demon God\'s palm.

At this rate, their academy would be destroyed, and they would be flattened by that palm. The dean, the senior teachers, and all the mages released their advanced magic to exterminate the Demon God\'s hand without hesitation.

Unfortunately, their combined magic attack was like a gentle breeze before the simple move from a Godly being.

"Is this the end?" The dean muttered softly as he stared at the approaching Demon God\'s palm. He could see a sense of despair on the faces of everyone around him except for the demonic cultivators.

He could only rely on the holy saintess to do something about this tricky situation as if there was hope.

Ely pressed a piece of paper to her lips and blew a whistle with an inaudible frequency into normal human ears. However, the signal was as clear as crystal in the ears of the Apostles and the Guardian of Dream\'s members.

"Aleph." "Beth." "Gimmel." "Dallet." "Heyh." "Vav." "Zayin." "Heth." "Teth." "Yudh." "Annihilation Star Formation, activate!" Ely\'s ten Apostles activated their S Rank holy artifacts in turn.

A massive golden magic circle with hundreds of arrays was formed mid-air with Ely as the center. The Guardian of Dream\'s members then activated their A Rank holy artifact and connected their power to the empty array spots. They amplify and strengthen the Annihilation Star Formation.

The combined ultimate technique of ten Apostles and 144 disciples was unleashed. The dark, cloudy day was suddenly lit with a blinding light as the concentrated destruction magic shot into the sky like a judgment beam of light.

The Demon God\'s hand vanished into ashes upon contact. The light continuously shot through the dark clouds, entered the small dimensional rift and shot the Demon God of Necromancy right in the head.

"Aaaarrgh!" The Demon God roared in pain. It echoed thousands of kilometers away.

The tremor was enormous, and the almighty God\'s aura broke out to suppress everyone. This time, the Demon God of Necromancy was genuinely furious. He never thought that there would be an existence that could hurt him in the lower realm.

"The ants should know your lowly place!" The Demon God of Necromancy planned to eradicate everyone within his sight. He gritted his teeth while clutching his bloodied head, then made a grasping-like motion toward the city below.

"The combined attack of ten S Rank and 144 A Rank holy artifact should be able to deal damage equivalent to an offensive type SS Rank artifact. Then, let\'s go all out. Seraphic Twilight Bow, it\'s time for you to shine~" Ely aimed her SS Rank bow to the sky, then pulled the bow string. A twilight golden arrow manifested, and her white crystal bow was enveloped in an aura of fiery golden fire.

She only has one magic arrow because of a whole month for its cooldown. Thus, she was not allowed to miss her target, even though it was her first time using the Seraphic Twilight Bow.

The Guardian of Dream\'s members received the signal, and they launched another combined attack.

*Pew*

Ely released her magic arrow, passing through the central magic circle in the air. The combined forces united to the twilight shooting star magical arrow piercing the sky.

The light was not blinding, but it fascinated everyone who witnessed it. It was like a sun and stars making a clear straight fiery line from earth to heaven.

*Swoosh!*

A violent gust of wind swept the dark clouds into the dark gap, and the shooting star arrow pierced the void. The gap closed as soon as the light arrow passed through it.

Ely and her disciples didn\'t allow the Demon God of Necromancy to release another God-tier attack. The arrow had clearly hit the Demon God, but they had no idea what would happen to their target if the gate disappeared just like that.

It was the true Annihilation Star Formation\'s might, comparable to the ultimate power of an SS+ Rank artifact. Not to mention, all were holy artifacts with +200% effectiveness against evil-related things. That kind of attack could make even Demon God suffer, right?

They had at least prevented the Demon God of Necromancy from descending upon the mortal world. Much more, they inflicted some heavy damage on that God. That was an incredible achievement for mortals.

"..." Ely heaved a subtle sigh. She needed to discover whether she completed the emergency quest in one condition or two.

She was about to check her grimoire, but there was a better time.

"Hmm?" Ely glanced to the side and found many pairs of eyes staring at her.

The students, senior mages, and teachers looked at her like she was a great spectacle worth countless sparkles and stars. The newly arrived reinforcements were also like that.

She and her people prevented the Demon God\'s descent into this world with something striking and breathtaking. However, she would retreat quietly while they were dumbfounded at what had happened.

That was what she initially thought, but some people quickly regained their composure and hurriedly called out to her.

"Lady Holy Saintess, please wait!"
