The barrier used by Demon Baal is quite ancient, designed to envelop both himself and the target, engaging in battle within.

Once this skill is completed, it is difficult to destroy the barrier whether attacking from inside or outside.

To dissolve the barrier, a considerable amount of effort is needed to unravel the encryption technique constituting it.

The angels use Holy Light and don’t understand magic, leaving them with almost no means to deal with this barrier.

Initially facing angels, demons were far inferior in strength to angels.

Ancient humans, to prevent demons from fearing angels’ power, did not teach demons how to unravel the encryption technique, which led to angels escaping when they actively dissolved the array.

After demons trap angels, they are often eliminated by angels.

Facing the barrier, angels are not completely helpless.

The Twelve Angels wield twelve Holy Artifacts, which possess the ability to slice through the barrier.

A typical struggle with beasts barely affects the Twelve Angels.

The Holy Sword, forged from fragmented Holy Artifacts, might allow a hero wielding it to easily break through this barrier if present.

Yang Yu doesn’t have a Holy Sword on hand; breaking through the barrier requires unraveling the encryption technique.

But now, there’s no need to unravel the encryption technique.

Because of the barrier’s characteristics, Baal cannot escape unscathed.

Due to these barrier characteristics, Yang Yu has the opportunity to quickly determine victory by coordinating with allies.

This barrier can indeed hinder the vast majority of others, but there is a type that can penetrate the barrier pressure-free.

It is the demons.

Ancient humans would not grant angels and demons a one-on-one opportunity.

Since in one-on-one, demons are inferior to angels, they rely on numbers to win.

As long as they are demons, they can pass through the barrier, endlessly replenishing the fight between angels and demons.

This barrier is essentially a trap that’s easy to enter but hard to exit.

Ancient humans were glad to send angels into it.

If encountering a powerful angel, and the barrier fails to precisely hit the angel, demons find ways to wrap the angel in their magic power, pushing her into the barrier.

In other words, if you’re enveloped in demon magic power, you can bypass the magic barrier’s detection and enter the barrier.

With Yang Yu’s reminder, Baal instantly recalled the past and looked up, gazing at Yang Yu standing on the golden glass.

”Boasting over there again.

No matter how much you know, without demon magic power, you can’t open this barrier’s door.

I’ll definitely take you down today!

Completely sweep away this obstacle!”

Wearing a smile, Yang Yu looked far away and said:

”Isn’t there plenty?”

Following Yang Yu’s gaze, the blazing black flames reflected into Baal’s eyes, and he widened his eyes, realizing something.

Without any warning, a figure sprinted from afar, diving into the black flames before Bai Jin’s magic sprayed onto it.

The surrounding black smoke gradually faded as Gao Yuanyi saw Baal’s rising barrier from a distance and their attacks fail on it.

Gao Yuanyi quickly remembered the demon barrier he heard of in the Nine-Life Cat Demon Kingdom.

There’s only one way to enter there!

With a mass of pulsing black magic power, Gao Yuanyi crossed the street, penetrating the solid barrier, rejoining the fight.

Black electrical currents flashed on the mechanical arm, and Gao Yuanyi’s figure suddenly disappeared, appearing near Baal the next second.

A ton of black erupted from Baal, swiftly constructing a solid defense shield.

”[Shield Shattering]!”

The gigantic mechanical arm roared fiercely as Gao Yuanyi punched Baal’s solid shield, shattering it.

The defense broke instantly, the situation turned urgent, but Baal didn’t panic, instead becoming increasingly calm.

Gao Yuanyi was wrapped in plenty of magic power, and he could manipulate it!

Glaring at Gao Yuanyi, the black magic power wrapped around him rapidly surged and transformed into chains on him, pinning him to the ground and freezing his movements.

With these black chains pulling tight, Gao Yuanyi’s attack slowed, immobilized in place.

Flicking his arm, Baal drew a Long Spear from behind, aiming it at Gao Yuanyi’s neck without hesitation.

Just as Baal’s attack was about to hit Gao Yuanyi, Yang Yu leapt from the golden glass, reclaiming his sword and Shield, entering Baal’s sight.

”[Taunt]”

Yang Yu glared at Baal fiercely, and Baal’s attack involuntarily redirected, thrusting fiercely towards Yang Yu.

With a ”crack,” Baal’s black Sharp Spear collided with Yang Yu’s Shield.

Visible cracks rapidly spread from the connection of the Broken Cocoon Butterfly and the Long Spear.

After blocking so many attacks, the damage sustained by the [Broken Cocoon Butterfly] finally showed, seemingly ready to break at any moment.

Yang Yu lamented over the [Broken Cocoon Butterfly] in his hand, after fighting for so long, the breakthrough progress of [Broken Cocoon Butterfly] hadn’t increased, stuck at ninety-nine percent.

It seems he couldn’t rely on weapon awakening like a game protagonist for victory.

Reconciling the reality and game differences again, Yang Yu activated the second Skill.

Numerous black-purple thorns rapidly sprouted from the ground beside Baal, weaving into sturdier ropes, binding the body of Demon Baal.

”It’s useless; no matter how many attempts, it’s useless!”

Baal released a massive amount of magic power, tearing the purple thorns entangling him to shreds, easily breaking free from Yang Yu’s constraints.

But Yang Yu’s target wasn’t Baal.

Near Baal’s feet, a lot of thorns grew while also sprouting around Gao Yuanyi, touching the black magic power enveloping him.

Yang Yu’s thorns, upon touching the black surrounding Gao Yuanyi, shattered instantly.

This also greatly consumed the black magic power on Gao Yuanyi, offering him an opportunity to free himself.

Tiny flames erupted from beneath Gao Yuanyi’s feet, and his newly fitted prosthetic exploded with tremendous bounce.

Gao Yuanyi kicked upward, aiming at Baal’s chin.

[Taunt] status lifted, Baal leaned back, dodging Gao Yuanyi’s upward kick.

”Missed.

The new prosthetic takes time to adjust.

But there’s no time for that.

”

Mumbling, Gao Yuanyi crafted a small Hurricane in hand, tossing it towards the nearby Demon Baal.

[Wind Control] can inflict piercing damage on enemies, disrupt their magic power, and influence subsequent battles.

Demon Baal didn’t withstand this skill just now, but he sensed a hint of crisis within, still opting not to face Gao Yuanyi’s move directly.

Black magic power surrounded Demon Baal, repelling the long-range attacks nearing him.

Following that, Baal sidestepped to dodge an incoming stab from Yang Yu.

Yang Yu’s stab was merely a phantom move.
