Chapter 527: Going All Out
The crowd looked toward the source of the sound, only to see that the Vault Covering Sun Array, jointly operated by a group of Elders from Langya Heavenly Palace, had become dim at some point, appearing to be on the verge of collapse.
The culprit behind the instability of the great array was naturally that strange Demon Emperor and their subordinates; eerie black slime clung to the surroundings of the Spirit Array like maggots on bone, dissolving the power of the Spirit Array.
The Nightmare Demon responsible for attacking the Spirit Array grinned hideously at the sight and accelerated the frequency of their bombardment; judging by the state of things, the Spirit Array would struggle to last more than a day.
This sudden change undoubtedly intensified the situation on the field. The Langya Heavenly Palace side understood that once the Sect Protecting Array was broken, the two freed Mysterious Demon Emperors would be like tigers entering a flock of sheep, and the entire sect would have no combat power left to check the opponent. The Outer Realm Evil Clan was even less willing to give up this opportunity for victory.
"Langya Guard, take care of that group of strange Evil Clan members." Qian Sha, who was in a fierce confrontation with a Demon Emperor, had an ugly expression and issued the order in a hurried tone.
Upon receiving the order, the Langya Guard erupted with a powerful offensive, attempting to break away from the battlefield and head toward the direction of the great array to intercept the uninvited guests.
The Evil Clan naturally could not allow the enemy to leave safely, and the Demon Emperors also issued instructions to their respective subordinates:
"Hold them back at all costs."
As the Evil Clan prepared to intercept the Langya Guard, the Disciples and Elders of Langya Heavenly Palace could not stand by and watch; they intervened one after another. Thanks to their profession as Spirit Array Masters, the Disciples and Elders of Langya Heavenly Palace managed to hold back enemies several times their own number.
For a time, a fierce confrontation unfolded on the field surrounding that strange army of the Outer Realm Evil Clan.
While the great armies battled below, the intensity of the combat at the top level also soared abruptly.
Ye Jianxin's Qingfeng sword pierced into the void, and peerless sword Qi erupted: Sword Realm: Dustless Land!
Yang Ling unleashed the fully refined Ten Thousand Array Heavenly Domain, and a super composite Spirit Array, formed by countless Spirit Arrays, shrouded the Demon Emperor before them.
The Absolute Shadow Killing Array in Qian Sha's hand, shaped like a short black sword, exuded a soul-devouring black light. Holding the sword, Qian Sha suddenly appeared filled with murderous intent, looking more like a member of the Evil Clan than the Evil Clan themselves, making the Demon Emperor opposite them shudder.
Perhaps even more aggrieved was the Demon Emperor facing Liu Qingyang, because it was precisely that strange Demon Emperor who had found an opportunity in their hands to break away and attack the great array.
Proud and arrogant, they knew they could not catch that slippery, strange Demon Emperor in a short time, so they had to change opponents temporarily. Four natal longswords engraved with composite Spirit Arrays surrounded their body, faintly forming a sword array. The four longswords moved according to Liu Qingyang's will, and the sharp offensive, like a giant beast opening its blood-red maw, shrouded the opponent.
Yi Huang's opponent was the culprit who had caused the major crisis for Langya Heavenly Palace this time. At this moment, Yi Huang was cold as frost, the blue and red bone wings behind her vibrating at high speed; every flap of her wings carved countless afterimages into the air.
A cyan stream of light darted everywhere across the battlefield, and the blade-like demon phoenix bone wings split the demons blocking her path in two, as she pursued the demonic shadow ahead with relentless perseverance.
That strange Demon Emperor also had an ugly expression; not only was the madwoman behind them fierce in combat, but her speed was also ridiculously fast.
If their corrosive Evil Qi had even the slightest effect when it met the other party's strange flames, it wouldn't be completely useless!
As a "noob" who had just broken through to Ghost Demon Emperor, they were like a monkey meeting a bald man in front of her; there was nowhere to run.
If it weren't for the two Mysterious Demon Emperor lords occasionally intervening to block the other party's offensive, they would likely have died on the spot.
"Wanjian Juesheng Array!"
"Four Saint Spirit Array!"
"Yongyu Array!"
Amidst the ugly expressions of the Zitong Mysterious Demon Emperor and the Xuyou Mysterious Demon Emperor, Xiao Han's hand seals flew up and down, and three Spirit Arrays unfolded abruptly; a Spirit Array pattern with a diameter of fully ten thousand zhang emerged behind the frost giant.
"Be careful, the Langya Palace Master is going all out."
The Zitong Mysterious Demon Emperor, who had dealt with Xiao Han many times, warned the Xuyou Mysterious Demon Emperor, but that was all he could do; with three Immortal Grade Arrays, even he dared not show the slightest contempt.
In fact, even without a warning, Xuyou knew the opponent was not to be trifled with; the murderous intent in the air even made their skin ache faintly. This formation, at a glance, was clearly dangerous.
"Four Saint Spirit Array, Black Tortoise Suppresses the World!"
The turtle-snake hybrid Black Tortoise let out a roar, and its mountain-like figure descended to suppress the area below. A huge shadow shrouded the two, and though they wanted to dodge, they were unable to move under some strange gravitational binding.
"Must dodge!"
Feeling the terrifying gravity they were invisibly bearing, the Zitong Mysterious Demon Emperor roared, not knowing if it was to boost their own morale or to warn others.
This was not their first time facing the Four Saint Spirit Array; their rich combat experience told them that once pinned down by the Black Tortoise's Mount Tai-like pressure, it would be extremely difficult to turn the situation around.
As the words fell, the Zitong Demon Statue's size instantly grew by a notch, and surging Evil Qi erupted from within the statue like a giant bomb, tearing the surrounding space apart.
"Boom!"
Under the violent explosion, a gap appeared in the gravitational field. The Zitong Mysterious Demon Emperor drilled out of the exit as if granted amnesty. Just as they escaped, before they could show any joy, a White Tiger several tens of thousands of zhang in size swung a heavy tiger claw and slapped it over.
"Bang!"
There were no surprises; this slap landed solidly, directly across the face. Thus, in the vast battlefield, the ten-thousand-zhang giant flew back faster than before, their massive body covered in wounds cut open by Gengjin Qi, from which purple blood was gushing. The Black Tortoise descended, directly sealing the top.
"Bang!"
"Hmm?"
The anomaly below made Xiao Han frown slightly. Immediately after, he saw the Black Tortoise's body tremble, and then, a scene that made his jaw drop occurred: the mountain-like giant Black Tortoise was actually being lifted up by force.
Looking closely, a group of phantom-like Warriors with raised arms were working together to lift the heavy burden pressing down on their heads.
Xiao Han shifted his gaze slightly. The Xuyou Mysterious Demon Emperor had retracted their demon statue, holding a brush in their right hand and a glowing, ghostly-colored picture book in their left. The brush moved like a dragon or snake; as the brush fell, more and more Warriors appeared out of thin air, lifting the Black Tortoise.
"Vermilion Bird, Blazing Flame!"
A clear, sharp cry pierced through space. The Vermilion Bird flapped its wings, and a sea of fire poured down toward the ground in the direction of its wings, burning mountains and boiling seas, the flames filling the sky.
"Azure Dragon, Seal and Ban!"
The massive cyan dragon swooped down, its dragon claws slamming heavily onto the Black Tortoise's shell. Another immense force fell, and the Black Tortoise, which had just begun to rise, crashed down with a boom.
"Boom!"
There was no further reaction from below. Xiao Han's expression remained unchanged, and he changed his hand seals.
"Four Symbols, Suppress!"
The four spirits of heaven occupied the four directions, with the two figures who had nowhere to hide in the center. A mountain was faintly taking shape, about to fall.
"Heavenly Demon Destroys the World!"
The moment the mountain fell, two purple beams of light, each a thousand zhang in diameter, shot straight into the sky from below. The mountain's downward momentum slowed sharply, and the two forces stalemated in mid-air.
"Wanjian Juesheng!"
Xiao Han's cold voice rang out. Behind the Spirit Array pattern beside the frost giant, a rain of swords flew out. Ten thousand flying swords converged into a long river of sword curtains, sweeping down while carrying boundless murderous Qi.
"Boundless Demon Frontier!"
In front of the long river of sword curtains, a black legion stood ready. Majestic battle intent gathered above the battle formation, condensing into a lion with flying mane.
"Kill!"
The lion roared, the sound waves creating raging billows along the way, colliding with the rushing sword curtain.
The sword curtain disintegrated, the majestic lion dissipated, and the black Qi swirling around the bodies of the Black Legion thinned significantly, revealing the figures wrapped within.
