Chapter 693: Diamond Sky Net Formation, the great battle begins (seeking monthly votes)

Just after Wei Xuanping asked the question in his heart, Bai Yuxian standing in front immediately explained to him.

"This... can three Jin Dan late-stage cultivators contain a Nascent Soul Demon Emperor?" Hearing what Bai Yuxian said, not only Wei Xuanping, but everyone present, including Song Qingming, felt a bit more doubt in their hearts.

The gap in combat power between Nascent Soul cultivators and Jin Dan cultivators is huge. Even if it is just a Demon Emperor who has just advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, its strength is by no means something that three Jin Dan late-stage cultivators can contend with.

Moreover, the "Brother Chiyun Demon Emperor" has advanced to the Nascent Soul stage for nearly a thousand years. Although his cultivation is only at the second layer of Nascent Soul, his strength is definitely not a weakling among the early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.

Seeing the doubts in the hearts of the cultivators present, Bai Yuxian hurriedly continued to explain: "Fellow Daoists, don't worry, our sect still has a fourth-grade formation that can assist Jin Dan late-stage cultivators to rival Nascent Soul-stage experts in a short time.

These two Nascent Soul Demon Emperors, just leave them to us to deal with. Fellow Daoists don't need to worry too much, just try your best to help contain other Demon Kings.

As long as we rely on the mountain-protecting formation to drag down the attack of the demon beast army for these few days, when the reinforcements of the Tianji Sect arrive, we can win this battle."

"Oh! In that case, we have a not-small grasp of winning this battle. I have no problem. Just tell me how to meet the enemy." Hearing Bai Yuxian's explanation, Wei Xuanping immediately nodded and responded.

Although they lost three Jin Dan late-stage experts like Bai Yuxian, they would definitely be at a disadvantage when facing the many Demon Kings outside the market. However, relying on the mountain-protecting formation, just containing the opponent, they still have a way to do it.

After answering the other party's question, seeing that no one among the many cultivators present raised new questions, Bai Yuxian continued to issue a series of combat instructions to the several Jin Dan Elders of the Xiaoyao Sect present.

In this battle, it is not just these high-tier cultivators of Jin Dan and above. The performance of those low-tier cultivators in the market is equally important. Before the battle, these matters must be arranged first.

Following the instructions issued one after another in the "Council Hall," "Guiyun Market," which had been silent for several days, soon became lively. Countless low-tier cultivators carried their magic tools and gathered on the city walls around the market.

Outside the market city wall, the rumbling sound was endless, and from time to time, powerful spells such as fireballs, ice arrows, and hurricanes fell from the high sky onto the huge light shield outside the market.

Seeing the tens of thousands of demon beast armies outside attacking the mountain-protecting formation of the market, many low-tier cultivators who had just been conscripted and had never been on the battlefield were suddenly scared and couldn't open their eyes.

"All Flying Cloud Crossbows, fill with spirit stones, fire!"

Following the instructions of the Foundation Establishment cultivators in the high sky, all the Flying Cloud Crossbows and other city-defending equipment on the city wall began to operate, sending out sharp arrow lights, shooting toward the demon beast army attacking the market formation below.

Bursts of screams came, and soon many low-tier demon beasts died under this sudden powerful attack.

After the human cultivator side began to counterattack, it instantly attracted the attention of those high-tier demon beasts outside the market. Those second-tier demon beasts stepped forward one after another to block the attack of the "Flying Cloud Crossbows."

"Brother Brother Molong, this market formation can hold on for at most half a day, Li Mu should be unable to sit still soon!"

The "Brother Chiyun Demon Emperor" standing in the high sky, seeing the human cultivators below begin to launch a counterattack, smiled and pointed to the market formation that was already very dim, and said to the "Brother Molong Demon Emperor" on the side.

"In that case, let's just add another fire to him!"

After the "Brother Molong Demon Emperor" smiled lightly, spiritual light flashed on his body, and he instantly disappeared in place. A moment later, his figure appeared above the mountain-protecting formation of "Guiyun Market."

Then the "Brother Molong Demon Emperor" raised his hand and waved, and a pair of sharp claw magic treasures immediately appeared in his hand, and he unleashed an attack with extremely terrifying power toward the mountain-protecting formation before him.

However, just after this strike was unleashed, a figure immediately flew out from the mountain-protecting formation of "Guiyun Market," and then a sword light slashed out, instantly blocking this strike of the "Brother Molong Demon Emperor."

"Li Mu, hehe! You can finally bear to come out. I thought you were going to be a shrinking turtle for another day today." Seeing the familiar white-clothed figure before him, the "Brother Molong Demon Emperor" was immediately happy, and opened his mouth to mock the other party.

Li Mu saw this, his expression remained as usual, did not pay attention to the other party, directly slashed the white clouds in the air, and then pointed his sword at the "Brother Molong Demon Emperor" before him.

"Monster, dare to fight me!"

"Hehe! If Fellow Daoist wants to fight, I am naturally happy to accompany you to the end."

After the "Brother Molong Demon Emperor" finished speaking, he went to the high sky first, and then Li Mu also followed behind him without too much hesitation.

The "Brother Chiyun Demon Emperor" standing on the other side, seeing that the two of them had already gone to the high sky, preparing to fight a great battle, immediately followed.

However, he had only taken a few steps when a sword light suddenly appeared before the "Brother Chiyun Demon Emperor," blocking the other party's way.

"Your Excellency Demon Emperor, your opponent is us now."

Following an angry shout on the battlefield, Bai Yuxian, Li Wu, and Chen Xuanxin, who had been prepared for a long time, had already flown out of the mountain-protecting formation and attacked toward the position of the "Brother Chiyun Demon Emperor" quickly.

"Fourth-grade magic treasure! You juniors still have some discernment, a Jin Dan cultivator can actually master and use magic treasures above the fourth grade."

Seeing the sword light slashed by Bai Yuxian with unusual power, the "Brother Chiyun Demon Emperor" was also a bit surprised, stopped his steps and avoided the other party's attack, and then opened his mouth to praise Bai Yuxian.

Ordinary Jin Dan late-stage cultivators cannot master and refine magic treasures above the fourth grade. Only a small number of cultivators with top-tier cultivation reaching the Jin Dan peak can have enough magic power to drive magic treasures above the fourth grade.

This fourth-grade low-quality flying sword magic treasure in Bai Yuxian's hand was handed to her by Li Mu to refine before the demon beast turmoil.

Because of insufficient cultivation, ordinary cultivators using fourth-grade magic treasures across tiers will consume a lot of their own magic power. Therefore, since Bai Yuxian had been fighting with the demon beast army for so long, this was the first time she used this magic treasure.

"Being appreciated by Your Highness Demon Emperor, the little girl feels very honored. However, it is probably not so easy for you to avoid us and intervene in the battle above today."

"Hmph! What a big tone for a junior, actually speaking such wild words before this seat. It seems that I have to teach you a lesson first today. I want to see how much ability you have to dare to fight with this seat."

"Then please give me advice, Your Highness Demon Emperor! Form the formation."

Just after Bai Yuxian finished speaking, she and Li Wu and Chen Xuanxin immediately had a yellow formation flag in their hands, and the three immediately released a formation eye in a triangular position.

"That's not right! This seems to be a Diamond Sky Net Formation, which should require four Jin Dan late-stage cultivators to control. Senior Sister Bai and the others only have three people. Although they can also force the formation, the effect of the formation's power will definitely be greatly reduced. How could Senior Sister Bai be so negligent."

Seeing Bai Yuxian and the three start to form the formation, Song Qingming, standing above the city wall, suddenly added a few doubts in his heart.

However, just when he was a bit puzzled, a long whistle came out from the mountain-protecting formation, and then a huge figure flew out, and in a moment, it came to the side of Bai Yuxian and the three.

This figure was a golden-haired giant ape demon beast several feet tall, with a golden formation flag tied to its arm. Like the cultivation of Li Wu and the others, the cultivation of this great demon king had also reached the late stage of Jin Dan.

"This is, Jin Dan late-stage Demon King?"

"How can there be demon beasts in the market?"

After seeing this figure, many cultivators in the market, including Song Qingming, were startled, not understanding how a Demon King suddenly jumped out of the market.

"Hehe! Junior Brother Song might not know, this is the Ye Fengyuan Senior who has been guarding the back mountain of the sect. Before we entered the Dao, it was already on Guyang Mountain." Chu Fengping on the side saw Song Qingming's expression was a bit surprised, and hurriedly explained.

A long time ago, Song Qingming heard that there was a Jin Dan mid-stage Demon King in the back mountain of Guyang Mountain who had not been tamed by anyone, but he never had the opportunity to see the other party with his own eyes. Unexpectedly, its cultivation had already broken through to the late stage of Jin Dan.

With Bai Yuxian and the three, plus this sect mountain-protecting spirit beast "Ye Fengyuan Demon King," four Jin Dan late-stage cultivators controlling the "Diamond Sky Net Formation," containing a Nascent Soul early-stage "Brother Chiyun Demon Emperor" is also feasible.

"This Ye Fengyuan Senior, hasn't it always been unwilling to intervene in sect affairs? Why did it suddenly come to the front-line battlefield to help us resist the Brother Chiyun Demon Emperor this time." Hearing that it was the sect back mountain spirit beast, Song Qingming was also a bit surprised.

Chu Fengping heard this, shook his head with a smile and said: "The sect has always been relatively confidential about this matter. I just heard about it just now. If I hadn't seen Ye Fengyuan Senior appear with my own eyes, I would have thought the news I heard was a rumor.

Junior Brother Song, you should also know that the temper of this senior is not so easy to deal with. The sect was able to invite it out this time, Senior Sister Bai and the others must have spent a lot of effort."

Song Qingming smiled slightly, did not ask any more, and shifted his gaze to the high sky again.

After the "Ye Fengyuan Demon King" appeared, Bai Yuxian immediately took action to help activate the formation flag on its body. Soon, the four light pillars merged into one, and a huge Diamond phantom with wide-eyed eyes suddenly appeared out of thin air before the four.

After this phantom appeared, it raised its high arm first, and punched toward the position of the "Brother Chiyun Demon Emperor" not far away. This strike was imposing, and its power had already far exceeded the scope of Jin Dan cultivators. Before the fist reached the "Brother Chiyun Demon Emperor," the gang wind that came with the momentum forced out the protective spiritual light of this Demon Emperor.

Seeing this, the "Brother Chiyun Demon Emperor," whose expression gradually became serious, did not dare to be negligent, and hurriedly waved his hand to take out a jade plate defensive magic treasure on his body.

Even so, the "Brother Chiyun Demon Emperor" still retreated several steps before he withstood this fierce attack of the Diamond phantom, which made this Nascent Soul Demon Emperor who had underestimated the opponent from the beginning suddenly show a few traces of embarrassment on his face.

"Haha! Well hit, the Nascent Soul Demon Emperor is nothing more than this."

Seeing that the power of the "Diamond Sky Net Formation" was so great, the many cultivators standing on the city wall of the market cheered immediately.

Song Qingming and the many Jin Dan cultivators standing in front also showed a few traces of excitement. In this battle, as long as Bai Yuxian and the others can successfully contain the "Brother Chiyun Demon Emperor," their winning rate will not be too low.

"Fellow Daoists, it's our turn to meet the enemy!"

Both Nascent Soul Demon Emperors have someone to contain them. The next task is to block the demon beast army outside that is desperately attacking the market formation.

Following an order from Zhao Menglian, who was in the lead, Song Qingming and other Jin Dan cultivators who had been prepared for a long time flew out of the mountain-protecting formation, rushed toward the position of those Jin Dan Demon Kings, and soon fought with them.

At the same time, the doors of the mountain-protecting formation around the market were immediately opened, and thousands of "Jin Shan Market" city-defending cultivator armies immediately rushed out from inside, and fought toward the demon beast army not far away one after another.

On the city wall, the cultivators responsible for controlling those large city-defending magic tools cheered up one after another, constantly controlling the "Flying Cloud Crossbows" to attack the demon beast army outside from a distance, reducing some pressure for the cultivators fighting below.

The Foundation Establishment and Qi Condensation cultivators below fought fiercely, and the Jin Dan and Nascent Soul cultivators and many Demon Kings above also fought very fiercely. All kinds of powerful spells flew in the sky from time to time, and each attack could cause bursts of roaring sounds nearby.

In the high sky at the very top, the great battle between the two Nascent Soul ancestors had already passed through the clouds and could not see the war situation at all. They could only see some thunder and lightning flashes from time to time through the clouds above their heads.

The battlefield where the "Brother Chiyun Demon Emperor" and Bai Yuxian and the others fought was also in the high sky. However, because the magic power giant elephant formed by the "Diamond Sky Net Formation" was very conspicuous, the many low-tier cultivators below could still see a little aftermath of the fierce battle between the two sides.

The distance of the battle between the many Jin Dan cultivators and Demon Kings staying in mid-air was not so far. The fierce sparks of the battle between the two sides would fall into the battlefield below from time to time.

The low-tier cultivators or demon beasts fighting nearby did not dare to approach the battlefield where they were, and avoided to both sides one after another, so as not to be innocently affected by the aftermath of the fighting of these high-tier cultivators.

Bai Yuxian, Li Wu, and Chen Xuanxin went to contain the "Brother Chiyun Demon Emperor," and the human cultivator side also suddenly reduced several Jin Dan late-stage cultivators on the battlefield on the Jin Dan side.

Among the human cultivators who are still fighting with many Jin Dan Demon Kings here, only Wei Xuanping, who is at the eighth layer of Jin Dan, this Jin Dan late-stage cultivator, is left.

And on the demon race side, among the more than 20 Demon Kings, there are five great demon kings whose cultivation has reached the late stage of Jin Dan.

It is much stronger than the "Guiyun Market" side in terms of Jin Dan combat power, and the two sides are difficult to duel fairly. Therefore, the people of "Guiyun Market" also have to separate several Jin Dan mid-stage experts to deal with the Jin Dan late-stage Demon Kings with powerful strength on the opponent's side.

Song Qingming's cultivation has reached the peak of the sixth layer of Jin Dan, and he is naturally among them. At this time, his opponent is a "Giant Elephant Demon King" whose strength has reached the late stage of Jin Dan.

This "Giant Elephant Demon King" has reached the late stage of Jin Dan, equivalent to a seventh-layer Jin Dan cultivator among human cultivators. However, this demon's magical powers are average, and it relies more on its own powerful physical strength to fight the enemy. Its fighting strength is relatively average among several Jin Dan late-stage great demon kings.

With the help of "Golden Wind" on the side, Song Qingming did not fall into a disadvantage in the confrontation, but instead had some spare energy to take care of Huang Siyuan, who was dealing with a Jin Dan mid-stage Demon King alone not far away.

Song Qingyu's opponent is also an ordinary Jin Dan mid-stage Demon King. Facing the fierce attack of this sword repair expert, this Demon King not only did not take advantage, but was beaten by Song Qingyu and retreated steadily, firmly suppressing the opponent.

Compared with Song Qingyu and Huang Siyuan, the strength of Li Xuanyi on the side is obviously much stronger. Controlling a Jin Dan mid-stage "Corpse Puppet," she dealt with a Jin Dan mid-stage and a Jin Dan early-stage Demon King alone, but she still showed a few traces of ease, as if she didn't use all her strength.

Li Xuanyi has many magic treasures on her body, and even more powerful helpers like the Jin Dan mid-stage "Corpse Puppet." It has to be said that her fighting strength is indeed a very powerful existence among Jin Dan mid-stage cultivators.

Even Song Qingming, who can already contend with Jin Dan late-stage experts, is probably not so easy to leave Li Xuanyi on the front-line battlefield.

Except for Li Xuanyi and Song Qingyu and the others, the situation of the rest of the people on the battlefield seems to be a bit worse.

Except for a few people like Wei Xuanping, who can barely deal with their opponents like Song Qingming, most people are at a disadvantage when facing Demon Kings who are a few points stronger than themselves.

Especially Zhang Rong and Hu Qingyun, two fake Jin Dan cultivators, even if they have already faced the Jin Dan early-stage Demon King with the weakest strength on the field, they still can't fight for more than a hundred rounds and can't support it, and take the initiative to retreat into the mountain-protecting formation.

Now they can only barely contain their opponents with the help of the market mountain-protecting formation and high-tier city-defending magic tools on the city wall, and cannot contend with them head-on.

Although the human cultivator side is at a disadvantage in the entire battlefield in terms of Jin Dan combat power, Song Qingming and the others' main purpose now is mainly to contain the opponent and buy time for the mountain-protecting formation to restore magic power, and they don't need to fight the opponent to the death.

Therefore, although the many Jin Dan cultivators on the battlefield are fighting a bit hard, everyone has no great pressure in their hearts. Even if they are at a disadvantage, they are not in a hurry, and they are still desperately containing their opponents.

The battle between Jin Dan cultivators is not that the gap in strength is too large, and it is generally difficult to have a chance to kill the opponent in a short time. Although the scene of the battlefield above is very fierce, the two sides have fought for a period of time and no one has directly withdrawn from the battle.

Compared with it, the battlefield of Foundation Establishment and Qi Condensation cultivators below is much bloodier. The two sides have tens of thousands of cultivators and demon beasts entangled together. In just half an hour, hundreds of corpses have lain on the battlefield.

There are quite a few people on the human cultivator side of "Guiyun Market" who have taken the initiative to withdraw from the battlefield because of injuries and retreated to the mountain-protecting formation in the rear to heal and rest.

In such a melee of tens of thousands of cultivators and demon beasts, even Foundation Establishment cultivators are difficult to be spared. Once they are unlucky enough to be besieged by multiple second-tier demon beasts, they will also fall on the spot and have no chance of escaping.

Just when the entire battlefield was fighting on its own, Song Qingming, who was desperately dealing with the "Giant Elephant Demon King," suddenly received a familiar sound transmission in his ear.

"Junior Brother Song, trouble helping me block this water buffalo!"

Song Qingming looked up and found that Li Xuanyi had already leaned toward him while fighting. Behind her, a black giant buffalo that had already broken a horn was chasing angrily.

This "Black Buffalo Demon King" is only a Jin Dan early-stage peak cultivator, and its strength is far from Li Xuanyi's opponent.

In the previous battle, it was tricked by Li Xuanyi, who slashed off a silver horn it was proud of on its head with a sword. At this moment, the "Black Buffalo Demon King" was also a bit annoyed, and was frantically casting spells to attack Li Xuanyi who was deliberately fleeing ahead.

And Li Xuanyi at this moment did not choose to fight head-on with it, but just shuttled around the battlefield desperately avoiding the opponent's attack, as if she was accumulating magic power, wanting to display some magical power.

Seeing Li Xuanyi asking for his help, Song Qingming did not consider too much, and after responding, he immediately sent "Golden Wind" over to help her entangle the "Black Buffalo Demon King" behind her.

Without the help of "Golden Wind," Song Qingming's pressure increased a lot instantly. Fortunately, he now also has many "magic treasures" on his body and possesses several powerful third-grade top-quality defensive magic treasures.

Although he temporarily lost the initiative on the battlefield, Song Qingming still had no problem dealing with the "Giant Elephant Demon King's" attack on him, but it was not as easy as before.

With the help of "Golden Wind" to block the "Black Buffalo Demon King," Li Xuanyi, who hid on the side, immediately cast a spell to release a golden scroll and quickly injected the accumulated magic power into it.

This golden scroll suddenly shone with spiritual light, and before long, a majestic golden eagle flew out from it.

Song Qingming, who saw this scene not far away, suddenly showed a trace of surprise on his face.

Although he didn't know what magical power Li Xuanyi displayed, the pressure emitted by this golden eagle was already comparable to an ordinary Jin Dan peak cultivator. Even Song Qingming didn't dare to take this kind of powerful magical power head-on.

Having known Li Xuanyi for many years, Song Qingming didn't notice that she had such a powerful magic treasure on her body.

"Junior Brother Song, hurry and let your corpse puppet move away, just leave this demon to me!"

Hearing Li Xuanyi say this, Song Qingming hurriedly commanded "Golden Wind" to quickly withdraw from the battlefield and retreat to the side.

The "Black Buffalo Demon King," which had gotten rid of the entanglement of "Golden Wind," was about to find Li Xuanyi's trace, but before it found the target, a golden eagle ahead flew toward it quickly.

By the time the "Black Buffalo Demon King" found that something was wrong and propped up a protective shield to resist this attack, it didn't expect that the defensive shield it had desperately cast was as crisp as thin paper, and instantly collapsed.

Before this shocked Demon King could let out a scream, the golden eagle had already flown over and smashed directly into its huge head. Soon, the "Black Buffalo Demon King" became a "headless Demon King." (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 694 =====
