Chapter 670: A Battlefield Elsewhere

"Roar! Roar!"

The successive roars revealed the fury of the Profound Fire Lion amidst the golden light; yet, no matter how angry or how enraged it was, it only displayed its impotent fury.

This Vajra Eight-Gate Array was specifically set up for fourth-rank demonic beasts like them.

It had been set up jointly by two Golden Core cultivators and six Purple Mansion cultivators.

Trapping it firmly within the array, eight golden rays of profound light continuously lashed out fiercely at the massive red lion.

Each time, they left streaks of blood upon its body.

"Everyone, put in more effort!"

Hua Peng, watching the lion inside the array trying to break out but failing to do so, revealed a hint of joy on his face.

These past few days, they had finally waited for this opportunity.

The Vajra Eight-Gate Array had trapped this fourth-rank Profound Fire Lion; with the strength of their eight, unleashing this Great Vajra Array gave them a chance to slay this fourth-rank demonic beast.

"Everyone must also be careful; the closer it gets to the end, the more this demonic beast will go mad."

Zhang Laozu, on the other side, reminded everyone.

He and Hua Peng both possessed Golden Core cultivation; even if this Profound Fire Lion went berserk, they would at most be injured, but these Purple Mansion cultivators would be in danger.

"Ancestor, we understand."

The six Purple Mansion cultivators—two at the late stage and four at the mid-stage—also understood the terror of a fourth-rank demonic beast and naturally would not let their guard down.

Right now, as long as they kept this Profound Fire Lion firmly trapped and continuously wore it down, they could eventually grind it to death alive.

"Whoosh—"

Sure enough, right after the two Ancestors' warning, the Profound Fire Lion moved; its figure swelled by a few notches, and at the same time, thick red smoke suddenly erupted from its two massive nostrils.

"It's Scorching Fire Poison Smoke!"

"It's that beast's unique innate ability; everyone, be careful!"

Hua Peng immediately recognized that the red smoke, carrying scorching fire poison, was spreading toward the group.

Before it even drew near, several Purple Mansion cultivators felt dizzy and nearly lost control of the array, allowing the beast to break free.

The Purple Mansion cultivators dared not delay and hurriedly took out Spirit Pills to neutralize the poison; after consuming them, everyone felt a bit better.

"Go!"

At this moment, Hua Peng was seen taking out a deep blue Spirit Talisman with a pained expression.

Ten Thousand Mile Profound Water Talisman!

The blue profound water collided with the red smoke.

It hissed with an intense sound; this fourth-rank Profound Water Talisman was naturally extraordinary in power and quickly suppressed the opponent's innate ability.

With this, the Purple Mansion cultivators naturally breathed a sigh of relief.

Having broken the opponent's innate ability, the group increased their output to the array, and the golden light turned into chains, becoming even more secure.

However, Hua Peng was truly heartbroken; this single fourth-rank Ten Thousand Mile Profound Water Talisman had cost him 200,000 Spirit Stones.

Don't look at the fact that he was already a Golden Core, and even at the Golden Core Second Layer; when he formed his Golden Core previously, it had exhausted his entire fortune.

This Spirit Talisman was one he had obtained before he advanced to the Golden Core stage; he hadn't been willing to sell it even when he was forming his core.

Now, he had no choice but to use it.

The power of this Ten Thousand Mile Profound Water Talisman was indeed extraordinary; as a Fourth-Rank Mid-Grade Spirit Talisman, it not only broke the Profound Fire Lion's Scorching Fire Poison Smoke innate ability but also slammed down fiercely.

The Ten Thousand Mile Profound Water surged with waves, the giant waves crashing and causing the internal organs of the Profound Fire Lion, which was dozens of feet tall, to shift.

The Profound Fire Lion was a fire-attribute demonic beast, and the Profound Water Talisman was naturally its nemesis.

Having had its innate ability broken, the Profound Fire Lion immediately became somewhat listless, but the madness in its eyes continued to increase.

On the other side, Lu Lao Zu was fighting a Golden Eagle.

This Golden Eagle's strength was even greater, having reached the mid-stage of the fourth rank, and because its speed was extremely fast, even though its cultivation was not as high as Lu Lao Zu's, it had not fallen into a disadvantage at this moment.

It was just that it truly had no advantage when facing the stronger Lu Lao Zu.

With deep magic power and rich combat experience, Lu Lao Zu was handling the current situation with greater ease.

After all, the advantage was on their side now.

This time, although the Beast Tide launched by the demon race was more powerful than ever—news from Liuyun Mountain indicated there were 800,000 in this Beast Tide—

300,000 of them had come to their side.

He had personally led the high-level members of the Yunyang Sect to block them here at the Baiyan Shanmai.

This time, the Yunyang Sect hadn't exactly sent out their entire force, but they had dispatched 70% of their strength, and the demon army was blocked outside the array.

And the two fourth-rank demonic beasts, not knowing if they were too arrogant, had actually acted alone, giving them an opportunity.

They had intercepted them; now, as long as he could hold this Golden Eagle back until Hua Peng and Zhang Laozu took down that Profound Fire Lion,

then this demon army would almost certainly collapse on its own.

One had to know that their strength was still above that of Liuyun Mountain.

He didn't know if the leader of the demon race had lost their mind this time to deploy troops like this; it was simply serving themselves up on a platter.

In reality, he did not know that at this moment, the Golden Eagle and the Profound Fire Lion were also furious to the extreme.

They hadn't expected that there would be three Golden Core cultivators at the Yunyang Sect.

According to what they knew before, there were only four Golden Core cultivators in Zheng Guo; besides the one newly promoted at the Yunyang Sect a hundred years ago, there was also one who had been born a few decades ago.

For this reason, they had specifically invited the Golden Eagle and the Red Eagle from Feiying Ling to come along.

Five fourth-rank demonic beasts could originally have suppressed the cultivators of Zheng Guo and reclaimed several Spirit Veins from the Zheng Guo cultivation world.

But as a result, they hadn't expected that the Golden Core cultivators of Zheng Guo were not four, but six.

Two Golden Core cultivators had been hidden.

With one of them at Liuyun Mountain and three Golden Core cultivators there, there was only one left in the rear of Zheng Guo.

This damned Human Race cultivator is truly too treacherous.

The two Tier 4 demonic beasts were cursing angrily at this moment.

However, this could not change the fate of the two demonic beasts.

The cunning of the Human Race had caused them to suffer many losses; it was the same last time, and for this reason, a Tier 4 Demon King had even died.

Although, for Demon Kings like them, the death of a companion did not make them feel much sorrow.

On the contrary, they were somewhat happy; after all, with the other party dead, they could swallow up the other party's territory, make it their own, and expand their own power.

But now that it was their turn, they were naturally angry, and also felt a few parts of panic.

The Golden Eagle was very clear that he was not in much danger at this moment; relying solely on this Golden Core cultivator before him, it was simply impossible to kill him.

Even if the other party's cultivation was above his, he could rely on his speed to break through the encirclement.

But the Profound Fire Lion was in trouble; once this guy kicked the bucket, relying on himself alone to face three Golden Core cultivators...

He would only be able to flee.
