Chapter 354: Chapter 212: Sneak Attack on the City! (Five-in-one, 10/10)_6
After recruiting these hundreds of thousands of demonic beasts, Chen Mo continued his charge towards the Demon King’s City.
The recruited demonic beasts could only exist for two minutes. Since his Special Containment Space was quite small, and the Nine-tailed White Fox and Boros already in it were quite useful, Chen Mo had no intention of adding the newly recruited beasts, simply letting them disperse on their own along the way.
Soon, Chen Mo and his Undead Army arrived before the Demon King’s City.
The architecture of the Demon King’s City wasn’t as gloomy and terrifying as he had imagined. Instead, it bore little difference to a human castle.
Chen Mo had just arrived before the Demon King’s City with his army when a handsome figure flew out from within.
This was a man with striking amber eyes and a lean build. He had long, silver-white hair, wore a pitch-black Robe, and held a scepter topped with a skull.
"Human, you are audacious, daring to venture before my Demon King’s City."
Chen Mo immediately perceived the other’s attributes.
[Monster Name]: King of the Night (Avatar)
[Monster Rank]: Low-tier Demon God (first-transition)
[Demon God’s Talent]: Immune to most abnormal effects!
[Level]: 25
[Attribute]:
〖Life〗: 100,000,000,000/100,000,000,000

〖Physical Attack〗: 10,000
〖Magic Attack〗: 10,000
〖Physical Defense〗: 50,000
〖Magic Defense〗: 50,000
[Active Skills]: Demon King’s Secret Technique (999 types), Nightfall (turns the current daylight into night), Absolute Darkness (when it is night, plunges the world within a 10,000-meter radius of self into absolute darkness)
[Passive Skills]:
Child of the Night (At night, All Attributes increase tenfold)
Nightfall · Extreme (When own Health is below 50%, it is considered night for you, regardless of the actual time of day)
Late-Night Guardian (At night, all damage received is reduced by 90%)
Late-Night Perception (At night, you can perceive everything around you)
Late-Night Dominion (At night, nullifies the abilities of all units within a 10,000-meter radius, except oneself)
Demon King of the Night (At night, all skill effects are enhanced by 1,000%.)
Damn, this guy’s abilities are off the charts!
After reviewing all of the King of the Night’s abilities, Chen Mo was speechless.
Although the opponent’s abilities were mostly limited by the time of day, he could actively create nighttime. Not only that, if his Health dropped below 50%, all his abilities would effectively become unrestricted. After all, as long as his Health was below 50%, any time of day would be considered night for him.
Among his abilities, the most overpowered one is Late-Night Dominion. This skill can nullify the abilities of all surrounding units. Truly outrageous.
Chen Mo himself had often used nasty tactics involving disabling others’ abilities. For instance, the three Sealing Abilities from The God of Bravery, and the two Sealing Abilities from the Godslayer Challenger. Just these five Sealing Abilities were enough for him to dominate a slew of monsters. And now, this Demon King possessed an ability that could seal *all* abilities. That was just too overpowered.
If it weren’t a Passive Skill, Chen Mo would have wanted to copy it immediately. And precisely because it was a Passive Skill, its overpowered nature was even more prominent.
Chen Mo’s skills that sealed three abilities required a large amount of Energy to maintain. The skill that sealed two abilities had a 1-minute Cooldown. However, this fellow’s Sealing Ability only needed nighttime to activate continuously, and it was an area-wide disabling effect—utterly unreasonable!
But countering him would be easy enough. I just need to seal this ability of his first. I’ll use my seal on your seal first; then you won’t be able to seal my other skills!
Naturally, Chen Mo wouldn’t give the opponent any chance. The moment he perceived how overpowered the opponent’s abilities were, he had preemptively sealed them.
Only then did he look curiously at this King of the Night, who had spoken to him the moment he appeared.
Am I not in the invisible state?
Chen Mo immediately consulted Heavenly Dao and discovered that all BOSS in SSS-level assessments possessed hidden Divine Power.
This hidden Divine Power was similar to when Chen Mo had previously challenged the ninth trial; at that time, his Divine Power was considered 100 points—a nominal value that didn’t affect his attributes but served to reduce the impact of an opponent’s Divine Power.
The BOSS in an SSS-level Realm Breakthrough Assessment also possessed this nominal hidden Divine Power.
This Divine Power didn’t affect their actual combat effectiveness; the system was primarily designed to protect Professionals, not the BOSS.
However, in Chen Mo’s case, this unexpectedly ended up protecting the BOSS instead.
The BOSS in SSS-level Realm Breakthrough Assessments are typically god-grade, so it’s normal for them to have Divine Power.
But not every low-tier Professional participating in an SSS-level Realm Breakthrough Assessment possessed even a shred of Divine Power like Chen Mo did.
Most participants had no Divine Power at all.
If a god-grade BOSS in an SSS-level Realm Breakthrough Assessment could fully utilize its Divine Power, any challenger would be utterly suppressed, rendering the assessment pointless.
Heavenly Dao had established such rules solely to maintain the balance of the assessment.
Since the opponent’s hidden Divine Power was far greater than Chen Mo’s, Demon King, King of the Night, could naturally see through Chen Mo’s divine stealth easily with his Revealing Gem.
Chen Mo, however, wasn’t bothered by this.
As long as the opponent’s key abilities are sealed, he’ll be easy to deal with.
Just as the Demon King emerged, preparing to say a few more words, Chen Mo, showing no courtesy, had already sealed his abilities. Relying on the God of Courage’s seal, he nullified the King of the Night’s automatic night-creation skill, his passive night-related skills, and his night-based ability to seal surrounding skills.
With these three key skills sealed, even if he possessed 999 Demon King’s Secret Techniques, they were all useless now.
"Kid, you’ve got some tricks," Demon King, King of the Night, remarked, remaining remarkably calm even though his most crucial skills had been sealed.
Just as Chen Mo instructed the Skeleton Monster to launch an attack, the surrounding sky suddenly darkened on its own.
"Weren’t your skills sealed?" Chen Mo asked, looking at him in surprise.
The King of the Night sneered, activating one of his Demon King’s Secret Techniques. Condensing an eerie energy in his hand, he deflected all the Skeleton Monster’s attacks, then turned to Chen Mo. "That’s right, they were sealed. But my Demon King’s City also has a device to create darkness, and you haven’t destroyed it. Human, what tricks do you have left to deal with me now?"
As darkness descended, the King of the Night’s All Attributes instantly increased tenfold. He also gained the Demon King of the Night effect, enhancing all his skill effects by 1,000%.
"Don’t celebrate too soon," Chen Mo retorted. He certainly wouldn’t let his opponent act freely and immediately unleashed the Godslaying Secret Technique from a distance to suppress him.
This Demon King, King of the Night, possessed the Demon God’s Talent of a Low-tier Demon God, making him immune to most abnormal effects.
However, the God of Courage’s seal, Godslaying Heart, and Godslaying Secret Technique that Chen Mo was currently using were precisely not covered by that "most."
These were all abilities with extremely high priority. Ordinary immunity to abnormal effects could not block them.
With the Godslaying Secret Technique suppressing him, Chen Mo once again ordered the Skeleton Monster to fire a combined attack!
SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!!!
Instantly, two million densely packed arrows flew towards Demon King, King of the Night!
