Chapter 200 Night Raid 2
Chapter 200 Night Raid 2
In the wild, cultivators generally do not fly on their swords at night, but Leng Huan was extremely familiar with the path to the main peak. He hurriedly went to the main peak and bumped into Fu Xun, who was running out anxiously, as soon as he landed at the entrance of the main hall.
"My lady, be careful!" Fu Xun steadied Leng Huan. "You've come out of seclusion. Where's Yun Du? I was just about to go back to see him."
Leng Huan: "He's fine. I made all the arrangements before coming over. That was a large formation..."
"Yes, I was just about to return to Jufang Hall to activate the great formation." Fu Xun looked towards the mountain gate on the horizon. "A quarter of an hour ago, the disciples guarding the mountain risked their lives to report that several major demonic sects had gathered to attack our sect. Among them, a mysterious person with profound cultivation was working with experts from several major demonic sects to break the formation."
"So how about now?"
"The elders have already led the disciples to the mountain gate to defend against the enemy. The sect leader has asked me to stay behind. The enemy is not friendly, and he has already sent someone to invite the Supreme Elder to come out of seclusion."
After telling her to stay behind him, Fu Xun turned around and was about to head to the mountain gate when Leng Huan grabbed him, saying, "Wait, I'm going too."
After a moment's hesitation, Fu Xun looked into her bright eyes and finally agreed.
The demonic sects of the Eastern Sea Continent consist of five major sects and countless other smaller sects, hidden in the mountains and wilderness, which righteous cultivators have been unable to eradicate completely.
The five major demonic sects are not to be underestimated, but they have kept a low profile in recent centuries, their whereabouts are a mystery, and they have not attracted the righteous path's encirclement and suppression.
Unexpectedly, this time they were the ones who first showed their claws to the Misty Immortal Sect. Because it was a surprise attack in the middle of the night, the disciples guarding the mountain reacted quickly and sent out the message immediately. However, the demonic sect came with great force and had planned it in advance. None of the disciples of the front mountain gate escaped the disaster.
Because of the time difference, some of the faster demons had already broken into the mountain gate and climbed the front of the mountain before the great formation was activated. They killed anyone they saw and were extremely ruthless.
When Leng Huan arrived, her disciples were engaged in a group battle with the demonic cultivators. She waved her sleeve and sent one of the demonic cultivators flying, saving a disciple. With a quick glance, she discovered that many of those mingling in the demonic sects were low-level demons!
The lowest level is the Red Demon, the highest is the Green Demon, and the higher-level demons are outside the formation. Those who come in are all vanguard cannon fodder.
What's even more disgusting is that the demons have an insatiable desire for destruction. Wherever they go, they destroy flowers, break trees, shatter artificial mountains, and destroy buildings. Leng Huan's eyes darkened. This scene was so similar to that of the Spirit Sword Manor back then.
The economic and property losses caused by the great war are not something they care about, but the Misty Immortal Sect will suffer a great loss of strength.
Leng Huan recalled the hardships she had endured traveling thousands of miles to get here. Since joining the immortal sect, she had never suffered again. This place was the beginning of her immortal journey, the beginning of her hopes, yet these demonic cultivators wanted to destroy it…
Suppressed emotions erupted, the magical sword appeared in her hand, her spiritual power surged, the snow-moon and starlight reappeared in her eyes, and the mysterious mark on her forehead, hidden beneath makeup, shimmered faintly…
-
"Sect Master, I'm at the mountain gate. This great formation has given us a chance to breathe. The mysterious leader should be a Blue-Rank Demon, equivalent to a Nascent Soul cultivator. Continuing to hold the formation is futile. Since the enemy came prepared, they must have some means to break our sect's great formation..."
Before Fu Xun could finish replying to the sect leader, he suddenly heard a loud noise in the distance. He turned around and saw Leng Huan chasing after the demons with his sword.
Slightly taken aback, Fu Xun waved his sleeve and annihilated several demons who were besieging the Immortal Sect disciples, then resolutely said, "Sect Master, after the elders have finished clearing out the invading enemies, this disciple intends to close the gates..."
At this moment, the great formation in front trembled violently again. Looking into the distance, one could see that the black-robed blue-ranked demon lord floating in mid-air outside the formation raised his hand again, and a strange demon weapon appeared in front of him, surrounded by thick dark demonic mist.
With a swipe of his claws, the Blue-Rank Demon Lord sent his imposing demonic weapon swiftly slashing at the great formation. The formation lit up with golden light, which then faded away like ripples on water. Fu Xun frowned; sure enough, the light of the formation dimmed with each passing moment.
A large number of demons have gathered behind the Demon Lord, including many demon cultivators, and their numbers are still increasing.
The Demon Lord's voice then came: "I have come to take something. You may offer it to me with both hands to avoid too many casualties."
The members of the Immortal Sect glared angrily.
The Blue-Rank Demons should not be underestimated; they are determined to obtain the Divine Seal!
Fu Xun said coldly, "If you want to fight, then fight!"
Leng Huan also saw that the array dimmed a little more with each use of energy. One could imagine that such a massive array absorbed tens of millions of spirit stones just to activate it, not to mention the tens of millions consumed each time it withstood an attack.
It has been going on for the time it takes to burn an incense stick. The demons' attacks are becoming more and more intense. If this continues, even if the formation is not destroyed, the spirit stones cannot be burned like this.
Fortunately, the elders quickly finished clearing out the demons from various places and arrived at the mountain gate. Sect Master Ji took the initiative and said, "You have offended my immortal sect. You shall pay with your blood!"
His voice was loud and clear, reaching everyone's ears. The elders and disciples then shouted in unison, "A blood debt must be paid in blood!"
Most of the disciples were below the Nascent Soul stage. They had just finished a bloody battle with the demons, and their robes were stained with blood, while the blue blood on their swords was still wet.
Everyone had close fellow disciples. The disciples guarding the mountain took turns on duty every seven days. None of the disciples who went on duty tonight survived. Their former fellow disciples died before their eyes. The disciples were filled with rage and hatred.
"Sect Master, your disciples are willing to perish together with the Demonic Sect!" The disciples raised their swords and shouted in unison, their voices shaking the heavens.
Leng Huan took a deep breath; everyone's morale was high.
Looking up at the blue-ranked demon lord outside the formation, a great demon comparable to a Nascent Soul cultivator, he was wrapped in a black robe. When the wind blew, his face, which was revealed, showed that he was in his prime, with pale skin, blue demonic patterns on his forehead, and dark blue eyes that did not reflect light.
The Demon Lord laughed loudly: "Hahaha, then I will annihilate your Misty Immortal Sect!"
The Demon Lord was accompanied by the leaders and high-ranking members of the five major Demon Sects, all of whom were Nascent Soul or Divine Transformation cultivators.
The Great Demon of Fusion... So much time has passed, and the Supreme Elder of the Immortal Sect still hasn't appeared. Leng Huan has a bad feeling.
Song Kaiyang stepped forward with his sword and stood beside Fu Xun, transmitting his voice: "That is a Blue-Rank Great Demon, one of the top experts in the Demon Clan. Today is a fight to the death. Disciple, if things don't look good, you and Junior Nephew Leng should take the child and leave first."
Fu Xun transmitted his voice: She won't leave.
He calculated the possibility of himself, Song Kaiyang, and several Nascent Soul elders who had just emerged from seclusion joining forces to fight the Demon Lord.
He didn't want to betray his sect unless absolutely necessary. His hands, hidden beneath his long sleeves, clenched into fists. This choice was agonizing. He could forge ahead alone, but Leng Huan and Yun Du were his weaknesses.
Leng Huan approached Fu Xun on his sword, his expression serious. "Why did the demon race gather so many demons so quickly?"
Fu Xun said in a deep voice, "They probably set up a teleportation array nearby to transport them from the Netherworld Demon Realm. It's not something that can be done in a short time; they've been secretly planning this for a long time."
Taking a deep breath, Leng Huan clenched her fists, pondering whether the props Wang Chen had given her were really that useful.
On the other side were tens of thousands of demons. Apart from the elders and their disciples, the Immortal Sect had several thousand inner disciples, twice as many outer disciples, and nearly ten thousand miscellaneous disciples. Although there were tens of thousands of miscellaneous disciples, most of them were low-level cultivators.
Normally, there would be at least several elders at the Fusion Realm protecting the sect, but now...
With a deafening roar, before Leng Huan could finish his thought, the Demon Lord and several sect leaders outside the formation joined forces to attack the formation. The formation hummed incessantly in his ears, and its energy was being consumed more and more with each attack.
Everyone was ready.
Sect Leader Ji finally ordered the formation to be shut down, declaring, "Our sect is in peril, and none of us will back down! We swear to live and die with our sect!"
