Chapter 2018: Tianyuan Great Battle (Part 2)

~11 min read 2,057 words

Seeing this, Han Li's heart trembled. Without a word, he looked in the direction he pointed. (Web)

With blue light flashing in his eyes, the situation of the Demon Race army tens of miles away was clearly captured in his eyes.

I saw a group of high-tier demons wearing blood-red battle armor standing on top of a triangular giant building among a dense group of Demon Race war boats, appearing quite eye-catching.

They vaguely surrounded a giant beast carriage pulled by several demon beasts.

The demon beasts pulling the carriage had five lion-like heads, massive bodies covered in a layer of deep blue scales, and long scorpion-like tails dragging behind them.

The beast carriage itself was extremely exquisite, and a pitch-black banner stood in the carriage, with several giant demonic characters written on the surface, each crimson like blood, with faint crystalline blood light flowing on them.

Beneath the banner, demonic energy rolled, and a youth wearing blood-red battle robes stood motionless, with seven or eight Demon Venerables standing respectfully on both sides.

The youth's face was exactly the same as the three Blood Light Sacred Ancestor incarnations that had pursued him before.

Seeing this, Han Li's gaze turned cold, and a trace of murderous intent shot out.

The blood-robed youth immediately sensed something, turned his head slightly, and his eyes met Han Li's spiritual eyes from afar. His pupils turned slightly, instantly becoming pitch-black, and a powerful suction force that was cold to the bone transmitted over, as if to forcibly pull Han Li's gaze in.

Han Li's heart trembled. With a move of his powerful spiritual sense, he forcibly broke his gaze.

This time, the blood-robed youth in the Demon Race army in the distance had his expression change slightly.

"What, Daoist Blood Light, have you discovered something!"

A loud voice came from the other end of the beast carriage. The owner of the voice was a burly man with a bronze-colored upper body, wearing an animal skin apron.

It was the burly man surnamed Xiong, whom Blood Light Sacred Ancestor called the number one Demon Venerable under the Sacred Ancestors.

At this moment, he was leaning against the railing on one side of the beast carriage with his arms crossed, looking lazy.

"Nothing, a human cultivator was peeping at us and was scared away by me. But it seems not to be an ordinary person, as he easily broke free from my Black Light Demon Eye." The youth glanced at the burly man and said slowly.

"Oh, being able to retreat unscathed from your Demon Eye, he shouldn't be an ordinary cultivator. Could it be the target you want me to deal with, or that fellow who just advanced to the late-stage? But his cultivation realm doesn't seem to be the same as what you said," the burly man's spirit lifted, and he asked excitedly.

"It is indeed this human boy surnamed Han. But his original cultivation should only be at the mid-stage. Oh... this Venerable One understands. It turns out the celestial phenomenon from a few days ago was caused by this boy. Brother Xiong can rest assured, he has only just advanced, and has not even been able to consolidate his realm. It will be even easier for you to deal with him," Blood Light incarnation scanned Han Li with his spiritual sense, was surprised for a moment, but after pondering, revealed a look of realization.

"Advancing to the late-stage is also this person? You won't be mistaken, right? If another late-stage Body Integration cultivator appears, your trouble will be great," the burly man's murderous intent flashed, and he said with a grin at Han Li.

"If there is another late-stage cultivator, you don't need to worry about it, Brother Xiong. This Venerable One will naturally handle it. You just need to take this boy surnamed Han down for me, and you don't need to worry about other things," Blood Light incarnation said coldly.

"Hehe, since Daoist Blood Light has said so, Xiong has nothing to say. I will handle this human boy. But don't say I didn't remind you, even if the opponent has no other trump cards, this current struggle alone might be enough to keep Daoist Blood Light busy for a while," the burly man rolled his eyes and replied indifferently.

At the same time, on the Tianyuan City side, Han Li closed his eyes tightly, and it took a long time to drive away the trace of dizziness in his head, opening his eyes with some shock.

"Daoist Han, are you alright? Just now, could it be..." Seeing Han Li's abnormality, the silver-haired elder couldn't help but worry.

"It's alright, the opponent just used a secret technique to sneak attack, but it's already fine," Han Li shook his head and replied lightly.

"It's fine. Brother Han has confirmed that it is indeed the Blood Light Sacred Ancestor incarnation, right?" The silver-haired elder was surprised, but immediately asked the question he cared about most.

"Hmm, it should be 80-90% certain. That person's appearance and aura are exactly the same as the Blood Light Sacred Ancestor incarnation I saw before, so it shouldn't be wrong," Han Li touched his chin and said affirmatively.

"It's good that it's this demon. Since this Blood Light Sacred Ancestor appeared in the Demon Race army in person, it seems he intends to decide the outcome in one battle. In a while, this Sacred Ancestor incarnation will be handled by Han Li. Daoist need not be in a hurry to win; just entangling it will be a great contribution to this battle!" Zen Master Jin Yue also said solemnly on the side.

"Hehe, the two fellow Daoists can rest assured. As long as no other Demon Race intervenes, this demon incarnation will definitely not appear in front of other fellow Daoists," Han Li smiled and said very calmly.

"Then I will have to trouble Daoist. We will try our best to intercept other Demon Race Venerables and will not let them interfere with Brother Han," the silver-haired elder guaranteed with great joy.

Han Li nodded and said no more. Several other Elders of the Elder Council, who had met Han Li a few times, stepped forward one after another to greet Han Li.

Facing Han Li at this moment, they were all much more polite than before.

Clearly, the title of late-stage Body Integration made these Body Integration Elders feel some awe toward Han Li, and they no longer dared to be as wanton as before.

Han Li did not have much deep friendship with these Elder Council members, only responding lightly a few times before saying no more.

Just then, rumbling sounds erupted in the Demon Race army in the distance, vaguely with countless war drums sounding together. Then, groups of ferocious demon beasts rushed out from the demon sea transformed by demonic energy.

These demon beasts numbered in the millions, and their variety was dazzling. There were ferocious beasts with ox heads and human bodies, strange birds with four wings and six feet and human faces, and giant stone demons a hundred feet tall.

After the demon beasts surged out like a tidal wave, hundreds of clusters of black light suddenly flew out from the beast group. Each cluster of black light was a transformed demon beast that was half-beast and half-human.

Under the urging of these fellow kinds who had opened their spiritual wisdom, the originally chaotic beast group instantly became orderly, and apart from low beast roars, there was no other noise.

And apart from these ordinary demon beasts, there were over a thousand super demon beasts mixed in the beast group, appearing extremely eye-catching.

Looking at the demon beast army, it was endless, and it continued to surge out from the demon sea, as if it would never end.

In a short time, tens of millions of demon beasts appeared in the eyes of the Elders of Tianyuan City.

Most of the Elder Council members' expressions became ugly.

"How could there be so many demon beasts? Wasn't it said that there were at most five or six million?" Elder Gu said with a pale face.

"According to the original intelligence judgment, there were indeed only a few million demon beasts. The extra demon beasts behind should be the newly added strength of this Demon Race army," Zen Master Jin Yue appeared quite calm, recited a Buddha's name, and explained.

"With so many added demon beasts, this battle will probably be hard to handle," another black-robed demon cultivator of the demon race muttered with a gloomy expression.

"Fellow Daoists, don't panic. Low-tier demon beasts are ultimately low-tier existences. Even if the number increases by nearly half, it will not have a decisive impact on the overall situation. When this old man considered this situation, I had already prepared countermeasures," the silver-haired elder said slowly.

"So Brother Gu has other arrangements. In that case, we can rest assured," other Body Integration Elders heard this, and their expressions relaxed a bit.

The silver-haired elder smiled slightly, flipped his hand, and produced a white misty array disk, whispering a few words to it.

A moment later, astonishing fluctuations erupted on the city wall in front, and several giant magic arrays appeared one after another. In the center of the magic arrays, giant white jade altars were floating.

And on these altars, several seemingly ordinary objects were enshrined.

A deep blue bowl, a pitch-black gourd, a pale silver long sword, and a white misty screen-like object.

"Four Treasures of the Heavenly River! Brother Gu, you have finally refined these few treasures. But using them here, isn't it like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut?" A Body Integration demon cultivator saw the few objects on the city wall clearly, and his face was full of complex expressions of surprise and joy.

"These few treasures are indeed powerful, but their main advantage is their wide range of attack, making them most suitable for large-scale killing. Otherwise, once these treasures are used in the later stages, although they can achieve miraculous effects, their actual room for play will be greatly reduced. Regarding this point, this old man and Zen Master Jin Yue have also discussed it, and finally decided to use them to deal with these low-tier demon beasts. First, they can eliminate a large number of demon beasts, and second, they can boost the morale of the crowd. Otherwise, if there are heavy casualties at the beginning, it will be a fatal blow to our morale. I think the Demon Race also had this intention when they sent out all their demon beasts at the beginning," the silver-haired elder explained lightly.

The other Body Integration Elders heard this, felt that the elder's words made great sense, and stopped asking.

"These demon beasts are numerous, but the most troublesome are those Demon Race elites. They seem to have been dispatched together," Han Li said suddenly.

The crowd was shocked and hurriedly looked into the distance.

I saw teams of armored demons appearing behind the beast group in the distance.

These demons were either riding various demon beasts or transformed into streams of black wind, each ferocious, holding weapons, emitting bloodthirsty and cruel auras, following silently behind the beast group.

If it weren't for Han Li's reminder, some Body Integration Elders would not have noticed their dispatch.

Amidst the war drums, giant bell-like sounds erupted from the demon sea, and giant boats pitch-black like ink, triangular Demon Race flying towers, and other behemoths flew out slowly from the demonic energy, surrounded by dense Demon Race war chariots, their numbers countless.

"How could this be? This Demon Race Sacred Ancestor, could he be a madman, actually intending to press all his strength at the beginning, not intending to leave any trump cards?"

After seeing the actions of the Demon Race army in the distance, everyone was stunned, and the silver-haired elder lost his voice in shock.

Han Li also pondered with a gloomy expression.

"At this point, no matter what the Demon Race intends, we can only handle it all. Brother Gu, we cannot be disrupted by the opponent, let's handle it according to the original plan. Fellow Daoists, you should also prepare. Perhaps today's battle concerns the survival of our Tianyuan City," Zen Master Jin Yue shouted solemnly.
