Chapter 1231: Chapter 1231 Ambushed By The Monster
Little did they expect that when Devil Vine learned of the presence of over thirty Sacred Majesties within, it would begin to stir with an unsettling restlessness.
"It seems it’s just about ready to deal with them!"
With these thoughts in mind, Ye Liuyun tossed Devil Vine directly beyond the city walls, leaving it to find its own way inside.
"Quietly sneak up on those foreign race and devil cultivators in the Sacred Majesty realm!" Before letting it go, Ye Liuyun reminded Devil Vine to act discreetly.
This time, the Devil Vine seed did not launch a full-fledged assault as it had done before.
It was likely taking into account the formidable presence of numerous Sacred Majesty-level adversaries it had to contend with. After burrowing into the earth, it fell silent.
"Whew!"
Ye Liuyun let out a long breath.
"This fellow is causing me quite the worry, not even a word of acknowledgment!"
Following this, Ye Liuyun promptly issued orders to his legion of devil cultivators.
Once Devil Vine initiated its attack, the legion of devil cultivators would station themselves at the four city gates, advancing from the outside in. Their primary objective was interception, ensuring not a single Corpse Demon slipped through their grasp.
Devil Vine’s movements this time were deliberate and slow, with its tendrils silently creeping forth. It wasn’t until it had already begun its attack that chaos erupted within the city.
Ye Liuyun himself wasted no time in releasing his legion of devil cultivators, the evil dragons, three hundred Onyx golems, and three thousand Metal Puppets.
The dragons took to the skies, preventing any foreign race from escaping. Meanwhile, Ye Liuyun led his feral beasts, Stone Golems, and Metal Puppets, charging directly into the heart of the city.
Upon emerging, the legion of devil cultivators split into four squads, each rushing toward one of the city gates.
At the city gates, they refrained from launching an immediate assault. Instead, they set up their formations, prepared their warships, and readied their equipment, anticipating the onslaught of the Corpse Demons.
Simultaneously, Ye Liuyun notified the Devil-sealing Stele.
In such a situation, the Devil-sealing Stele was well-suited to wreak havoc in all directions. After absorbing the energy, the Devil-sealing Stele would become even more formidable.
As the Devil-sealing Stele emerged, it simultaneously enlarged and advanced toward the city, it was moving fast.
It seemed to be concerned that Devil Vine might absorb all the energy, and if it arrived too late, it would miss its chance to act.
Both the Devil-sealing Stele and Devil Vine were headed straight for the Sacred Majesty-level powerhouses.
Devil Vine was launching simultaneous attacks against all Sacred Majesty-level powerhouses, while the Devil-sealing Stele specifically targeted devil cultivators that Devil Vine couldn’t handle at the moment, pressing them down.
However, it could only subdue two or three at a time, far less efficient than Devil Vine’s approach.
The foreign race and Corpse Demons within the city were momentarily bewildered by the sudden appearance of these monstrous entities.
In the skies, massive dragons soared, relentlessly spewing torrents of fire downward.
The Devil Vine sprouting from the earth was equally terrifying, capable of directly siphoning off their energy.
And then there were the Stone Golems, Metal Puppets, and the ferocious feral beasts...
They had never before experienced such an onslaught.
Some of the lower-level devil cultivators, realizing the dire situation, seized the moment when Devil Vine hadn’t yet focused on them and led squads of devil cultivators in a desperate dash toward the city’s outskirts.
However, as soon as they poked their heads out, the waiting legion of devil cultivators on the outside bombarded them with warships, sending them flying back.
The intense barrage of firepower left them with no chance of breaking through. Groups of Corpse Demons were reduced to mere ashes, with no options left.
Without breaking through a single gap, the people within the city had no means of escape.
Occasionally, any that managed to slip through were met with a coordinated assault by the legion of devil cultivators, ensuring not a single Corpse Demon escaped the encirclement.
Ye Liuyun, accompanied by Fyeng Wanru and a host of feral beasts, roamed the city under the protection of Stone Golems and Metal Puppets, relentlessly hunting down Corpse Demons and devil cultivators.
Within the city, a cacophony of eerie roars and clamorous sounds filled the air incessantly.
Every battle against the foreign race and Corpse Demons unfolded in a similar fashion - chaotic, relentless, and cacophonous. This time, however, the tumultuous sounds were exacerbated by the thunderous roars of feral beasts and the agonized cries of devil cultivators, creating an eerie symphony of chaos.
Ye Liuyun, amidst the fray, had become a specialist in facing the formidable Sacred Terra realm level.
While the Corpse Demons possessed unyielding flesh, Ye Liuyun’s physical prowess was far from lacking. Moreover, the radiant aura of Buddha’s halo that surrounded him, combined with his Demon Slayer, proved to be the perfect foil to these menacing foes.
Fyeng Wanru, brandishing her Asura sword, had finally unlocked the true extent of its power. Even the Corpse Demons beneath the Sacred Terra’s dominion proved powerless against her. In fact, her swordsmanship bore a deathly intent so savage that it sent shivers down the spines of even these fearsome creatures, the Corpse Demons themselves.
The feral beasts had thrown caution to the wind, attacking relentlessly, reveling in the mayhem. Their diverse energies were scattered in every direction!
Ye Liuyun was no different. In the heat of battle, he no longer had to hold back, concealing his true strength from prying eyes. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
Thus, in the midst of the fray, he unleashed all his abilities—the power of space, Elemental Spirit Secret Skill, and the forces of Buddhist-Devil.
"Haha, this feels so good!"
Ye Liuyun’s clone laughed heartily.
"Yes, it’s been ages since I’ve enjoyed a fight like this!"
Ye Liuyun himself felt an exhilaration he hadn’t experienced in a long time.
The Devil Vine and Devil-sealing Stele were on a rampage, swiftly dispatching the Sacred Majesty-level powerhouses and then turning their attention to those at the Sacred Terra level.
The Devil-sealing Stele, in particular, concentrated its efforts on the foreign race and Corpse Demons, while the Devil Vine attacked indiscriminately.
Throughout the city, the ground was littered with the sinister tendrils of the Devil Vine.
The foreign race who attempted to escape through the skies found themselves forcefully repelled by the colossal wings of the dragons.
Over a dozen of these enormous dragons, arranged in three layers like the lids of a box, encircled the city from above, sealing the airspace shut.
Any foreign race, Devil Clan members, or devil cultivators who dared to take flight were swiftly knocked back down, falling like dumplings into a boiling pot.
Moreover, these dragons had cultivated devil art, enabling them to absorb some of the Devil Qi from the Corpse Demons. This at least provided them with sustenance, turning the Corpse Demons into a potential source of nourishment and solving the problem of these dragons’ insatiable appetites.
After all, feeding such massive creatures required considerable resources!
Ye Liuyun patiently waited, biding his time until the Devil Vine had eliminated a fair number of the mid-stage Sacred Terra martial practitioners. Only then did he retract the Devil Vine.
After all, there was no point in everyone else being left with nothing to fight. Moreover, once the Devil Vine had absorbed the Corpse Demons, the dry corpses became entirely worthless. If they were all absorbed by the Devil Vine, it would leave the dragons hungry.
As for the Devil-sealing Stele, Ye Liuyun didn’t rush to retrieve it. It continued to press on, one by one, its absorption rate not particularly swift. He simply let it do its work.
The Devil-sealing Stele didn’t heed his calls at this point, so he had no choice but to let it be.
Once the Devil Vine had withdrawn, Ye Liuyun allowed the malevolent dragons to descend in batches to find sustenance.
For the exceptionally high-level Corpse Demons, he left them to the likes of Blue Serpentine, Vespera, and other feral beasts to deal with.
He, accompanied by Stone Golems and metal puppets, embarked on a sweeping campaign throughout the city.
Within the city, nearly a hundred thousand troops consisting of foreign races, devil cultivators, and Corpse Demons fell victim to the unexpected assault led by the eccentric Ye Liuyun. Not a single one of them remained standing.
Ye Liuyun had the Stone Golems and metal puppets line up outside the city, leaving the task of clearing the battlefield to the malevolent dragons, allowing them to feast in the process.
The four squads of devil cultivators, divided for the mission, successfully regrouped and awaited Ye Liuyun’s command.
Originally, Ye Liuyun had intended to hold his ground in Sun City until Qin Peng’s army arrived, facilitating the handover before advancing towards the Devil Clan.
However, in a bid to ensure the effectiveness of the surprise attack, he immediately ordered his forces to set out and march toward the Devil Clan’s territory.
