Chapter 1552 His cheat code is just too big.

Above the defenses of Yai Shan Fortress, the sounds of fighting and roaring had already shaken the heavens and the earth. Blood and demonic energy intertwined to form a murky miasma that shrouded the battlefield.

Li Wuyai and Zheng Xinghuai stood solemnly, their sword-like eyebrows furrowed as they stared at the bloody battle scene ahead. The veins on their sword-wielding hands were already bulging. Several times they tried to rush to the front line, but Su Fan stopped them each time.

"It's not time yet, what's the rush..."

Su Fan spoke calmly, his gaze sweeping across the human defense line ahead.

"Although the defense line is currently in a precarious state, its foundation remains intact, so it's not your turn to intervene yet..."

Although the current battle situation looks fierce, if these two were to rush to the aid with the sect's elite troops, it might disrupt the defensive deployment. It would be better to maintain a strong reserve force.

Compared to Li and Zheng's anxiety, Su Fan's mind was inexplicably unsettled.

An indescribable anxiety, like a persistent boil, quietly crept into my heart.

Having experienced countless life-or-death moments, Su Fan possesses an almost instinctive and keen intuition for danger, thanks to his experience of repeatedly crawling out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

This anxiety is not unfounded; a catastrophe that could overturn the course of the war is brewing in the shadows and is imminent.

Su Fan's gaze swept over the roaring and charging horde of demonic beasts in front of the defensive line. Where did this crisis come from? Could it be from these fearless demonic beasts in front of him?

Ha ha……

How can it be……

A disdainful smile curled at the corner of his lips. With his current strength, these demonic beasts were nothing more than fish on a chopping board.

Let alone going all out, he could easily wipe out a whole area with a casual wave of his divine power. This number of demonic beasts was simply not enough for him to kill.

Even if a clone of a great demon from the upper realm descends, he can easily deal with it and even turn the tables with ease, thanks to his trump cards.

The only thing that could make him wary was the true form of a great demon from the upper realm descending.

But those high and mighty demons could never have known that he was hiding in the Cliff Mountain Fortress.

Moreover, when a great demon from the upper realm descends to the lower realm across realms, it will inevitably be bound by the rules of heaven and earth.

Not only was their strength reduced to less than one-tenth, but the price they paid was enough to make any great demon feel the pain; it was by no means an easy task.

In this long-running interdimensional war, although the human and demon races fought to the death, they always adhered to an invisible rule.

That is, one must never send the true form of a powerful figure from the upper realm to descend.

Everyone knows that once this rule is violated, the balance of the realm will collapse.

The resulting chain reaction would be a catastrophe that neither side could afford.

unless……

Unless, in order to get rid of him, those narrow-minded human sects in the upper realm are willing to betray the human race and secretly reach an agreement with the demon race.

Thinking of this, Su Fan broke out in a cold sweat, a chill running down his spine and straight to the top of his head.

Given the hypocritical and despicable nature of those Taoist cultivators, they are absolutely capable of betraying their own kind and abandoning their principles in order to eliminate dissidents.

Moreover, the identity jade talisman he left behind in the Taoist sect in his early years has not been destroyed to this day. Those people can accurately pinpoint his current location through the fluctuations of the jade talisman.

If they were to reveal their exact location to the demon race, the great demons of the upper realm would surely spare no effort to set up a targeted killing trap.

After all, his very existence is a huge threat to both the demon race and the human Daoist sects, enough to overturn the course of the war.

The demon race hates him for killing countless of his own kind, and the Daoist sects are wary of his rapidly increasing strength, which has already exceeded their control.

Thinking of this, Su Fan's disdain turned into a cold sneer.

Whether it was the demon race from the upper realm or those hypocritical human sects, they all greatly underestimated his true strength and the trump cards he held.

There's no way around it, his "cheat" is just too big.

It far exceeds the cognitive limits of cultivators in this world, and has long surpassed everyone's imagination.

Even if it were a demonic clone from the upper realm, or even its true form, it might not be able to do anything to him.

If the true form of the great demon that descended was slightly weaker, let alone killing him, it would be uncertain whether he could even return to the upper realm intact.

Therefore, Su Fan could only suppress his anxiety and remain inactive for the time being, determined to observe the situation.

He wanted to see in what form this brewing crisis would erupt.

At that moment, the entire earth suddenly trembled violently.

Then, dozens of enormous ninth-tier demonic beasts, their bodies as massive as mountains, suddenly appeared in front of the fortress defense line.

They were enveloped in an intense, overwhelming demonic aura, and their roars distorted the very air. The human cultivators at the Integration Realm, who were suspended in the air, were caught off guard and had no time to rush to the front line of defense.

"Boom... Boom..."

The layers upon layers of spiritual energy shields shimmering with spiritual light in front of the defensive line were as fragile as glass under the full-force bombardment of the ninth-tier demonic beast.

One after another, powerful demonic divine abilities tore through the sky. With a crisp "crack," the last protective barrier collapsed, instantly tearing open a gap several miles wide in the defensive line.

This gap is located precisely on the flank of the defensive line's bulge, which is the weakest point in the defense.

Once an endless stream of monsters surges in, the entire defensive line will collapse like dominoes, and the Yai Mountain Fortress will be doomed.

Upon seeing this, the human cultivators at the Integration Realm above the fortress changed their expressions drastically and rushed to provide assistance, channeling their spiritual power.

But as soon as they approached the gap in the defense line, they were blocked by even more ninth-tier demonic beasts.

These ninth-tier demonic beasts charged forward like madmen, fearless of death, their sharp claws tearing through the air, their demonic flames scorching the heavens and earth, as they clashed with the human leaders.

The demon race spared no expense in their attempt to capture the Cliff Mountain Fortress, deploying several times more ninth-tier demon beasts than the number of human cultivators at the Integration Realm.

The human race's Nascent Soul Realm experts at "Yashan Fortress" were instantly surrounded and unable to help themselves.

Just as the main battle became deadlocked, a chilling buzzing sound came from the air.

The first to launch the attack were the flying monsters that blotted out the sky. They were a dark mass that completely blocked out the sky, like dark clouds passing by.

Countless flying beasts roared down from the sky, like bombers loaded with explosives, heading straight for the cracks in the defense line.

"Boom...Boom..."

As soon as these flying demonic beasts surged into the gap, they detonated their own demonic cores without hesitation.

Violent explosions rang out one after another, creating devastating shockwaves that swept outwards in all directions.

The human cultivators guarding the breach didn't even have time to unleash their magical weapons to launch an attack before they were engulfed by the continuous shockwaves of the self-destruction. Their bodies were instantly torn to shreds, reduced to dust.
In an instant, blood and severed limbs rained down on the defensive line, staining the land around the breach red.

It must be said that the demon race is truly fearless and willing to sacrifice the lives of its entire race in order to break through the defenses.

With the suicidal attacks of countless flying demonic beasts, the human cultivators at the breach in the defensive line suffered heavy casualties. The already weak defense completely collapsed, and only a handful of cultivators remained, struggling to hold on with their remaining spiritual energy. The defensive line was teetering on the brink of collapse and could be completely breached at any moment.

Immediately afterwards, the demon army on the front of the breach launched a frenzied charge, their roars deafening.

This time, the main target is no longer the weak cannon fodder legions, but the most elite core group of the demon race.

Their fur was glossy, their fangs sharp, and they exuded a terrifying demonic aura.

What's even more chilling is that those charging at the forefront were all ninth-tier demonic beasts.

Their every step caused the earth to tremble as they rushed madly toward the breach, and the defensive line on the flank of the fortress was in imminent danger.

"The time has come, you can go..."

Su Fan's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly waved his hand, issuing the attack order.

Li Wuyai and Zheng Xinghuai, who had been unable to contain themselves any longer, were instantly excited upon hearing Su Fan's voice, their eyes blazing with fierce fighting spirit.

"kill……"

They shouted in unison, and immediately led the cultivators of their respective sects, transforming into two fierce torrents, carrying overwhelming killing intent, and charged toward the gap on the flank.

The two torrents had just reached the breach when they instantly stabilized the precarious battle situation.

This group consists of over a thousand cultivators at the Integration Realm, all of whom are the most powerful sword and lightning cultivators among the human race.

Sword cultivators are sharp and unrestrained, while lightning cultivators are domineering and incomparable; both are considered the nemesis of the demon race.

"Sword, come..."

With a loud shout, Li Wuyai unsheathed his longsword, which transformed into a dazzling sword light.

Immediately afterwards, countless dazzling and chilling sword lights burst forth from the group of cultivators, sweeping across the land with a vast and overwhelming killing intent, galloping freely through the endless horde of demonic beasts.

Wherever the sword light passed, the demonic beasts' claws, heads, and bodies were severed, leaving behind a ground littered with broken limbs and foul-smelling demonic blood.

The horde of monsters that had been charging wildly was instantly torn open.

"Boom...Boom..."

Immediately afterwards, Zheng Xinghuai raised his hand to form a seal, and beams of dazzling lightning converged from the clouds, like raging thunder dragons, falling into the dense horde of demonic beasts and bursting forth with incomparably brilliant light.

Thunder roared, demonic energy surged, and countless demonic beasts were struck by lightning, instantly turning into charred remains and letting out mournful howls.

Even though the remaining monsters charged forward fearlessly, they were held back by Li Wuyai and Zheng Xinghuai's fresh forces, who managed to suppress this wave of frenzied attacks.

Even so, the balance of power on the battlefield still tilted in favor of the demon race.

As more and more ninth-tier demon beasts appeared from behind the demon race, they were like moving mountains, constantly putting pressure on the breach.

The cultivators led by Li Wuyai and Zheng Xinghuai gradually began to struggle, and the defensive line at the flank breach could not hold for much longer.

At this moment, Su Fan's lips curled into a cold smile, and a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.

He didn't take these demonic beasts seriously at all. He raised his hand and flicked his finger, and a wisp of gray-black energy burst out from his fingertip.

"Swoosh..."

With a soft whooshing sound, the gray-black cloud of energy swept across the battlefield like a ghost, striking precisely the attacking horde of monsters.

In just a few breaths, a chaotic roar suddenly came from behind the monster horde on the other side of the defensive line.

Several demonic beasts, as if possessed, turned bloodshot and frantically bit and attacked their own kind.

At first, it was just a small-scale chaos, but this chaos spread rapidly like a plague. The originally orderly charging monster horde instantly turned into a mess, abruptly cutting off the momentum of their attack.

The demonic beasts, tainted by the gray-black aura, began to twist and mutate, transforming into bizarre-looking monsters that frantically slaughtered the dense horde of demonic beasts.

Moreover, this mutation spread like wildfire, causing more and more monsters to go mad. In the end, the chaotic area completely blocked the monsters' attack routes.

Countless demonic beasts began to kill each other, resulting in countless deaths and injuries in an instant, with the demonic energy mixed with a thick stench of blood.

Su Fan stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the chaotic horde of demonic beasts in front of the defensive line with a smile, his face full of composure.

With just a slight move, he easily reversed the tide of the battle.

This is his strength—crushing his peers and intimidating those in the lower realms.

There was no way around it; the evil spirit within him was simply too malevolent, specifically targeting the minds of living beings. Once tainted, one would fall into a frenzy of self-destruction.

Furthermore, Su Fan's spiritual sense strength far surpasses that of other cultivators of the same level, allowing him to crush them with just his spiritual sense alone.
Even if he stood still with his hands in his pockets, he would have no rivals in the lower realm.

The demon clan leaders who were fighting fiercely at the front noticed the chaos behind them, their expressions changed drastically, and they instantly realized that something was wrong.

If this continues, let alone breaking through the defenses, our own people will be worn down and die here.

He decisively ordered the attack to be abandoned, and the ninth-tier demonic beasts broke away from the battlefield and rushed towards the chaotic area.

Claws flashed and demonic fire raged, wiping out all the demonic beasts in the chaotic area and barely stopping the spread of chaos.

"Aww...aoww..."

As a series of mournful retreating roars came from the rear of the demon race, the countless demon beasts that had been attacking frantically retreated like a tide, leaving behind only demon corpses, severed limbs, and stenchy demon blood, turning the battlefield into a hellish scene.

"We held the line...we held the line..."

The human defenses at Yai Shan Fortress erupted in thunderous cheers, and the cultivators' tense nerves finally relaxed.

Many people collapsed to the ground, panting heavily, their faces filled with relief at surviving the ordeal.

Su Fan spread his divine sense and clearly sensed countless divine senses, each carrying a dense demonic aura, sweeping back and forth across the human defense line like searchlights.

Clearly, the ninth-tier demon race leader has begun investigating the source of the chaos.

However, given the strength of these ninth-tier demonic beasts' souls, it was impossible for them to detect the existence of that wisp of gray-black energy, let alone find the source of the chaos.

The ninth-tier demon beasts of the demon race were well aware that this strange and chaotic power was impossible to defend against.

If the source of this chaos cannot be found, the next attack will only repeat the same mistakes, and this battle will be impossible to continue.

They lingered reluctantly on the outskirts of the battlefield for a long time before finally retreating slowly.

Su Fan gazed in the direction the demons had retreated, his eyes indifferent, but he already understood.

After this battle, the demon race will surely realize that the forces of the lower realm cannot break through their defenses.

Next, they will definitely open the altar and summon the great demon from the upper realm to descend.
