Chapter 562: Ambush, the Merit of a Single Strike

On the other side, within the Human Race's Bai Xuanli Realm.

At the very moment his Earth Shadow Clone was destroyed, Ye Ye Qingxiao, who had been standing in the air not far from the border between the Bai Xuanli Realm and the Blood Moon Realm, his gaze fixed on the Blood Moon Realm where demonic energy was overflowing, suddenly saw a sharp light flash in his eyes. He spoke with profound meaning:

"Prince Xieyue? The Blood Moon Realm and the Blood Capital Realm? So that's how it is."

Although his Earth Shadow Clone had been crushed by Prince Xieyue, the information he had probed was limited.

But through this investigation, he had finally learned of Prince Xieyue, the mastermind behind the Green Demon Race coalition, as well as the existence of the Blood Moon Realm and the Blood Capital Realm.

Although he had not uncovered Prince Xieyue's specific plan,

knowing of the existence of the Blood Moon and Blood Capital Realms made it easy for Ye Ye Qingxiao to guess that Prince Xieyue intended to gather the strength of both realms to crush the Bai Xuanli Realm in one fell swoop.

Thinking of the numerous Green Demon Race powerhouses his Earth Shadow Clone had sensed in the Blood Moon Realm, and comparing them one by one to the number of powerhouses during the Green Demon Race's previous invasions of the Bai Xuanli Realm,

Ye Ye Qingxiao's thoughts raced, and he had already guessed that the Green Demon Race had not used their full strength in their previous invasions.

It seemed that the previous invasions were merely Prince Xieyue using probing battles to gather information on the major powerhouses of the Bai Xuanli Realm. After having this suspicion, a cold glint flashed in Ye Ye Qingxiao's eyes. With a wave of his hand, he took out three Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talismans, letting them float in the air as he stroked them gently, murmuring:

"Since you don't care about martial ethics and want to win by sheer numbers, don't blame me for striking first."

Having said this, Ye Ye Qingxiao's figure flickered and vanished.

Not long after, under Ye Ye Qingxiao's command, the numerous cultivators of the Bai Xuanli Realm began to retreat thirty thousand miles.

As for Ye Ye Qingxiao himself, he quietly returned to the border between the Bai Xuanli Realm and the Blood Moon Realm to lie in ambush, waiting for the arrival of the coalition army from the Blood Moon and Blood Capital Realms.

Seven days later.

Within the Blood Moon Realm, the Green Demon Race army from the Blood Capital Realm had by now fully arrived.

Added to the army of the Blood Moon Realm, Prince Xieyue now had over fifty peak Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses under his command, nearly two hundred late-stage Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses, and a total of over eighteen hundred early and mid-stage Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses.

Among them, in order to deal with Ye Ye Qingxiao and force out the trump cards in his hands,

Prince Xieyue had arranged for thirty peak Deity Transformation Realm Green Demons and one hundred late-stage Deity Transformation Realm Green Demons to surround and attack Ye Ye Qingxiao.

Not only that, but for the sake of caution, Prince Xieyue also sent messages to other top powerhouses from the Green Demon Realm who were wandering outside the coalition of the two realms,

informing them that a full-scale attack on the Human Race's Bai Xuanli Realm was about to be launched and inviting them to join the action.

As for whether these powerhouses would act, Prince Xieyue was not worried.

As fellow Green Demon Race powerhouses, they were still very interested in the operation to conquer a Human Race Small Thousand World.

Even if he couldn't convince all of them to act and cooperate with him in attacking the Bai Xuanli Realm, convincing just a portion of them would be enough.

After sending the message, Prince Xieyue did not wait for their replies.

Leading the coalition army of the Blood Moon and Blood Capital Realms, they flew majestically toward the Bai Xuanli Realm.

However, during their high-speed advance,

Prince Xieyue's gaze suddenly flickered, and he led his few trusted subordinates to slow down, moving from the front of the coalition army to a position in the middle-rear.

Although other Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses noticed this, they felt some disdain for Prince Xieyue's behavior, but they said nothing.

At the same time, atop a mountain in the Blood Moon Realm that rose high into the demonic mist,

three Green Demons whose cultivation had already reached the peak of the Deity Transformation Realm stood at the summit.

The leader among them, a Green Demon dressed in purple, was currently looking at the message sent by Prince Xieyue.

This Green Demon in purple also came from a Green Demon Dynasty in the Green Demon Realm.

However, unlike Prince Xieyue, he was not a prince of that Green Demon Dynasty, but the offspring of a Void Penetration Realm ancestor within the dynasty, named Xie Xie Xinghun.

Xie Xie Xinghun and Prince Xieyue did not come from the same Green Demon Dynasty.

Furthermore, the Green Demon Dynasty Prince Xieyue came from was not governed by a Tribulation Realm ancestor; on the surface, it was merely a Green Demon King of the Void Meditation Realm who held the position of the dynasty's ruler.

Therefore, even though Xieyue was a prince of a dynasty, Xie Xie Xinghun did not fear him or obey his commands because of his status as a prince.

Looking at the content of the message Prince Xieyue had sent him, Xie Xie Xinghun's mouth curled slightly as he said softly:

"The final battle to conquer that Human Race Small Thousand World is about to begin? This is somewhat interesting."

Immediately, he turned his head slightly to look at the two attendants behind him and spoke indifferently:

"Let's go! We shall go and join the fun as well!"

Saying this, he took the first step and fled toward the border between the Blood Moon Realm and the Bai Xuanli Realm.

Back at the spot, Xie Xie Xinghun's two attendants looked at his departing figure, and after exchanging a glance, they spoke in unison to respond:

"Yes, Young Master!"

Then, the two of them followed closely behind Xie Xie Xinghun at high speed.

It was not just Xie Xie Xinghun.

After receiving Prince Xieyue's message, a full five or six Green Demon Race powerhouses whose strength and background were only slightly inferior to Prince Xieyue's led their own subordinates and rushed toward the Bai Xuanli Realm.

These Green Demon Race powerhouses, even the ones with the worst status and background, were at least the offspring of a Void Penetration Realm great power.

However, unlike Prince Xieyue, most of these Green Demons had quite good talent, and their experience in the lower realms was merely to change their environment and seek an opportunity to break through to the Void Penetration Realm.

Only one of them, a Green Demon named Mo Yan, had poor talent like Prince Xieyue, and he was also the offspring of a Void Meditation Realm great power in the Green Demon Realm.

It was just that Mo Yan's father was not the ruler of a dynasty, but merely a Green Demon King of the Void Meditation Realm within a dynasty in the Green Demon Realm.

Because of his poor talent, Mo Yan was not favored in his family in the Green Demon Realm, which was why he had come to the lower realms to gain experience and seek a sense of presence.

But even so, his strength and the resources he carried with him surpassed most of the Green Demon Race powerhouses gaining experience in the lower realms.

Besides this, there were other Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses from the Green Demon Realm in the Blood Moon Realm who moved upon hearing the news, following these young masters with powerful backgrounds toward the Bai Xuanli Realm.

Ye Ye Qingxiao, far away in the Bai Xuanli Realm, was unaware of all this.

Ye Ye Qingxiao was still lying in ambush at the border between the Bai Xuanli Realm and the Blood Moon Realm, waiting for the arrival of the Green Demon Race army.

As time passed, Ye Ye Qingxiao, who was hiding his figure and resting with his eyes closed at the border between the Bai Xuanli Realm and the Blood Moon Realm, suddenly opened his eyes and said in a low voice:

"Finally here." A moment later, tens of thousands of the Green Demon Realm army were seen crossing the border between the two realms, preparing to officially step into the territory of the Bai Xuanli Realm.

Scanning the tens of thousands of the Green Demon Realm coalition army obscurely, three Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talismans slowly floated in front of Ye Ye Qingxiao.

However, Ye Ye Qingxiao did not rush to activate these three Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talismans. Instead, he let the dozen or so early and mid-stage Deity Transformation Realm leaders and those Nascent Soul Realm cultivators at the front of the Green Demon Race army cross the border, patiently waiting for the large wave of Deity Transformation Realm Green Demons in the army to approach.

When the large wave of Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses in the Green Demon Race army kept closing in, Ye Ye Qingxiao became fully focused.

While trying his best to use secret techniques to hide himself, he slowly activated the three Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talismans in front of him, while concealing the fluctuations caused by the activation of the talismans.

In order not to be discovered prematurely by the peak Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses among the Green Demons, Ye Ye Qingxiao did not wait for the peak Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses of the Green Demon Race to get too close to him.

When the nearest peak Deity Transformation Realm powerhouse was still a hundred miles away, Ye Ye Qingxiao decisively accelerated the activation of the three Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talismans in front of him, blasting them toward the area in the Green Demon Race army where the most Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses were gathered.

"Who?"

The energy fluctuations generated by the activation of the three Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talismans instantly caught the attention of the few Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses at the very front of the Green Demon Race.

Unfortunately, what responded to them were three strikes comparable to those of a Void Penetration Realm cultivator.

Although there would be energy fluctuations during the activation of the talismans, the time from the activation of the talismans to the arrival of the attack was merely a flash.

Added to the fact that Ye Ye Qingxiao, for the sake of the ambush, had activated a portion of the Dao patterns on the talismans in advance while concealing them,

the fluctuations generated by the activation of the three Seventh-Order talismans were only just discovered by the peak Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses of the Green Demon Race when the attacks transformed from the three talismans had already followed closely and descended upon the Green Demon Race army.

The Seventh-Order pressure carried by the three Seventh-Order Upper Grade talismans after activation made it impossible for the many Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses in the Green Demon Race army to flee in the first instance.

In the terrified eyes of the many Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses of the Green Demon Race, they had only just felt the intense pressure and seen the scorching energy light when they themselves were already integrated into the rule energy activated by the three talismans.

They even died and vanished before they could let out a wail.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom—"

Amidst the continuous energy roaring sounds, the space at the border between the Bai Xuanli Realm and the Blood Moon Realm began to twist and shatter continuously, and then began to reorganize and repair under the intervention of the power of heaven and earth of the two realms.

And this land, even more so, shattered and sank several thousand meters under the sweep of the aftermath of this attack, causing the border between the two realms to directly turn into a magma river that spanned several thousand kilometers and reached several thousand meters deep into the earth.

"This? What is going on?"

"That direction, it seems to be the border between the two realms?"

"Such strong energy fluctuations, this power has probably reached the Void Penetration level, right? What exactly happened at the border between the two realms?"

As the terrifying energy fluctuations generated by the three Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talismans triggered by Ye Ye Qingxiao continued to spread,

the Human Race cultivators who had previously followed Ye Ye Qingxiao's order to retreat thirty thousand miles, and other Green Demon Race powerhouses who were rushing toward the Bai Xuanli Realm, instantly sensed these terrifying energy fluctuations and were all stunned on the spot, feeling uneasy.

After noticing that this energy began to dissipate gradually, the Human Race cultivators and other Green Demon Race cultivators flew toward the border between the two realms at high speed in unison.

At this time, at the border between the Bai Xuanli Realm and the Blood Moon Realm.

After the energy aftermath of the three Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talismans gradually subsided, Ye Ye Qingxiao's figure slowly appeared.

Witnessing the miserable state of the Green Demon Race army with his own eyes, Ye Ye Qingxiao felt no reluctance, his eyes filled only with coldness.

Whether it was a race war or a Dao struggle, the situation between the Human Race and the Green Demon Race was already one of life and death.

Therefore, when facing the Green Demon Race, he would not have any mercy.

Under this wave of his ambush, the Green Demon Race army was directly destroyed by more than half by the three Seventh-Order Upper Grade talismans, and among them, nearly ninety percent of the Deity Transformation Realm Green Demons fell under Ye Ye Qingxiao's deliberate targeting.

Other surviving Nascent Soul Realm and Deity Transformation Realm Green Demons were now fleeing toward the Blood Moon Realm with terrified faces.

Ye Ye Qingxiao's secret strike had directly shattered the belief of the Green Demon Race army.

Only Prince Xieyue, who was relatively far behind, had some reaction; although he was caught off guard by Ye Ye Qingxiao's sudden ambush,

Prince Xieyue, facing the sweeping aftermath of the Seventh-Order talismans, also timely activated a Seventh-Order Upper Grade protective talisman to block the aftermath of the three Seventh-Order Upper Grade attack talismans, saving the trusted subordinates who were following by his side.

Watching the coalition army of the two realms that he had worked so hard to gather directly die or flee under Ye Ye Qingxiao's ambush, with tens of thousands of Green Demon Race powerhouses completely ruined, Prince Xieyue's face turned unsightly, and looking at Ye Ye Qingxiao's figure, he roared angrily:

"Human Ye Ye Qingxiao, you are courting death."

Ye Ye Qingxiao's strike directly turned his decades of planning in the Blood Moon Realm into a joke.

At this moment, he was just like a clown.

And if it weren't for him gathering the Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses of the Blood Moon and Blood Capital Realms together, Ye Ye Qingxiao's Seventh-Order talismans, though strong, would not have been able to achieve such a battle result.

In his rage, Prince Xieyue directly activated one of the few Seventh-Order attack talismans he had left toward Ye Ye Qingxiao.

However, facing the Seventh-Order talisman activated by Prince Xieyue, Ye Ye Qingxiao took out another Seventh-Order talisman and activated it with a calm face.

"Bang!" "Boom!" "Boom—"

In Prince Xieyue's surprised eyes, the attack transformed from the Seventh-Order attack talisman he activated was directly offset and neutralized by Ye Ye Qingxiao's Seventh-Order talisman.

"You actually still have Seventh-Order talismans?"

Originally, Prince Xieyue thought that Ye Ye Qingxiao activating three Seventh-Order Upper Grade talismans at once was already all the Seventh-Order talismans Ye Ye Qingxiao carried with him.

Yet he did not expect that Ye Ye Qingxiao actually had other Seventh-Order talismans on him.

Taking a deep breath, Prince Xieyue secretly thought: "As expected of the Human Race powerhouse who made this prince feel a trace of danger, the trump cards carried on his person are indeed deep."

"Looking at his calm appearance, he probably still has quite a few Seventh-Order talismans on him, right?"

He now only had five Seventh-Order attack talismans left, and seeing Ye Ye Qingxiao's calm expression, Prince Xieyue felt a drum beating in his heart.

He worried that the number of Seventh-Order talismans he had left could not compare to Ye Ye Qingxiao's.

And on the opposite side, Ye Ye Qingxiao, sensing Prince Xieyue's surprised gaze, appeared calm and unruffled on the surface, but in reality, he already felt a sense of urgency in his heart.

Because, excluding the four Seventh-Order talismans already used, he only had two Seventh-Order talismans left.

Once the last two Seventh-Order talismans were also exhausted, he would be powerless to resist Prince Xieyue's Seventh-Order talismans.

With his strength, if he faced the attack of a Seventh-Order talisman head-on, he would probably fall on the spot, right? For a moment, Ye Ye Qingxiao felt an unprecedented sense of crisis in his heart, and subconsciously played with the small tower Ye Ye Qingxuan had given him in his hand, feeling somewhat depressed as he said:

"Ye Qingxuan, Yu Xueqing, I might not be able to return this time."
