Chapter 192

He needed Lin Moyu to display extraordinary strength and astonishing talent, but not to reveal all his power.

This balance was somewhat difficult to grasp.

So, Lin Moyu revealed his strength little by little.

Each time, he showed a bit more, but still hid some.

Just the part he revealed was enough to attract worldwide attention.

Moreover, Bai Yiyuan also said that he wasn't the only bait; there were others.

Now it seems Lin Mohan is very likely one of the baits.

Lin Moyu hadn't considered the danger of being bait himself.

But with Lin Mohan as bait, Lin Moyu began to worry about her safety.

Seeing Lin Moyu's hesitant expression, Ning Yiyi said, “Don't worry, Sister Han is so powerful, she'll be fine.”

“A Mid-Tier Legendary Professional is much stronger than guys like Su Sheng and Zhou Lesheng.”

“It's not that easy to kill her.”

After hearing Ning Yiyi's words, Lin Moyu relaxed a little, and his tense nerves gradually eased.

He thought, Bai Yiyuan would certainly consider safety issues.

There shouldn't be any problems.

Late at night.

The entire Nanhong City was still brightly lit.

The Professionals Tournament contestant residence had fallen silent.

Professionals were either meditating or sleeping.

Tomorrow was the Solo Competition, and many who had signed up were recuperating, preparing for the big event.

The rules for the Solo Competition were still unknown and would only be announced tomorrow.

The competition format changes every year, making it impossible to guess.

Suddenly, all the city lights flickered for a second.

The sound of waves suddenly grew louder.

Then, a fierce wind roared, and waves were swept up hundreds of meters high.

It was as if the entire city was about to be submerged.

For the Professionals Tournament, the Shenxia Empire had moved mountains and filled seas, expanding the coastline by a thousand meters.

The competition venue was originally a vast sea.

At this moment, the competition venue was enveloped by a Light Screen, undergoing modifications in preparation for tomorrow's Solo Competition.

Under the impact of the waves, the Light Screen immediately shook violently.

The High-Tier Arena and Low-Tier Arena, two enormous Light Screens, simultaneously erupted with brilliant light, illuminating half of Nanhong City.

Nanhong City in the dead of night was like a giant suddenly awakened, its lights dazzling.

At this moment, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and thousands of bolts of lightning crashed down.

In an instant, the entire Nanhong City was enveloped by lightning.

These lightning bolts were not aimless; each one targeted a teleportation array.

In a flash, all the teleportation arrays in Nanhong City were destroyed.

Even the teleportation arrays hidden in the deepest parts did not escape.

After the lightning, a massive barrier descended, like an inverted giant bowl, covering Nanhong City.

More than half of Nanhong City was enveloped within it, including the Professionals Tournament venue and residence.

The barrier extended ten kilometers beyond the coastline, covering a large area of the sea.

The entire process took less than a second.

By the time the Professionals reacted, the barrier had fully formed.

At this point, more than half of Nanhong City became a turtle in a jar, with nowhere to escape.

Chapter 185: Barrier Envelops, Demon Worshipping Society Raids

Lin Moyu looked up at the suddenly appearing barrier, his heart completely calm.

No matter when the Demon Worshipping Society made their move, it was within expectations.

When he heard Bai Yiyuan, he knew that the Demon Worshipping Society would either not act, or they would definitely act before the Professionals Tournament ended.

Otherwise, once the tournament concluded and the Professionals left Nanhong City, dispersing across the land, it would be difficult to find them again.

Now, they were in Nanhong City.

The Legendary Professionals who had not yet fully grown were in Nanhong City.

The champion team was in Nanhong City.

They could be caught in one fell swoop.

If anything happened to them, it would be a severe blow to both the Shenxia Empire and all of humanity.

This was far more damaging than destroying a city.

Killing any number of ordinary Professionals was not as impactful as killing one Legendary Professional.

And if this succeeded, at least several Legendary Professionals could be killed.

Nipping them in the bud before they grew stronger was the optimal choice.

The Abyss Demon King did not want humanity to produce another powerhouse like God Bai.

“What's going on!”

“What happened!”

“This is a barrier? My goodness, such a massive barrier, could it be a Divine-tier Professional who made a move?”

“What are they trying to do!”

The previously quiet residence became lively.

Professionals sensed something unusual and came out one after another.

Ning Yiyi ran out of her room to Lin Moyu's side, “They made their move?”

Lin Moyu nodded slightly, “I didn't expect it to be so fast!”

As he spoke, he had already donned Bone Armor for himself and Ning Yiyi.

The door opened, and Jiang Taotao, Duan Gao, and Miao Yu also quickly rushed over.

Lin Moyu first equipped Bone Armor for the three of them, “Be careful later!”

The three didn't understand what had happened.

Seeing Lin Moyu's grave expression, they asked, “What happened?”

Lin Moyu whispered, “Demon Worshipping Society.”

Jiang Taotao's face changed drastically, “What, how dare they act now?”

“This is Nanhong City, and the Professionals Tournament is being held. How dare these rat-like scum act now?”

Duan Gao and Miao Yu also had drastic changes in their expressions.

They all knew about the existence of the Demon Worshipping Society.

These demon-worshipping lunatics, despite being human, were constantly thinking of destroying humanity.

More Professionals rushed out, one by one staring at the giant barrier in the sky, all showing expressions of disbelief.

Electric light flickered within the barrier.

Crackle!

Lightning flashed and thunder roared, the sky brightened, and Nanhong City instantly turned to day.

Massive electric snakes slithered within the barrier, rushing towards the Professionals.

The Professionals cried out, one after another assuming combat stances.

Such a large barrier would require at least a top-tier Barrier Master to deploy.

Its power would undoubtedly be astonishing.

As the electric light struck, even before it landed, the ground in the residence already began to crack.

The earth shook and mountains swayed, like the end of the world.

“So terrifying!”

“Oh my god, we're going to die!”

“It's over, this can't be stopped!”

“What should we do? Are we going to die now?”

Many Professionals felt despair rising in their hearts.

But an attack of such power was simply beyond their ability to resist.

Even Lin Moyu's expression was solemn at this moment; he was unsure if his Bone Armor could withstand it.

Suddenly, two huge protective shields rose within the Professionals' residence, blocking all the lightning outside.

At the same time, beams of arrows shot out from the residence, heading straight for the barrier.

The arrow beams exploded, causing the barrier to vibrate violently, and all the electric light instantly disappeared and was annihilated.

The barrier hummed, and large amounts of black gas flew out.

Ten masked Men in Black appeared in the sky.

They floated in the void, their aura immense.

Without exception, all ten Men in Black were top-tier Professionals above Level 70.

Then another person appeared, his aura even more vast.

Lin Moyu's pupils contracted.

Although this person was not as powerful as God Bai, he was at least a top-tier Professional above Level 80.

He was on par with Councilman Xu Wei, whom they had seen that afternoon.

The Men in Black all wore masks, and the masks were made of special items.

Ning Yiyi shook her head, “Can't see clearly.”

Her Shadow Vision couldn't penetrate the masks to see the faces of the people behind them.

“It's over, it's the Demon Worshipping Society.”

“How could this be? How could these guys come here?”

“They're truly audacious, daring to act within the Shenxia Empire. Doesn't God Bai want to eliminate them?”

“That's if God Bai can find them; these people are hidden too deeply.”

Someone recognized the attire of the Men in Black.

These Men in Black had special symbols on their cuffs and collars.

The symbols depicted the totem of the Abyss Demon King.

The symbols actually varied, because each Demon Worshipping Society member worshipped a different Demon King.

But without exception, they could all be recognized at a glance as the mark of the Demon Worshipping Society.

One top-tier Professional above Level 80, ten top-tier Professionals above Level 70.
