Tianhai Fairy Journey

Chapter 1372 Battle
The outer world of the Zhuyuan Sea.

On what was once a vast and empty sea, countless enormous spirit islands have gathered together, resembling a real continent.

Countless cultivators formed a vast army, stationed in every corner of the world.

Above the battlefield of heaven and earth, layers of spiritual clouds obscured the sun, and a magnificent black palace floated within it, its vast and oppressive power sweeping across the land.

At this moment, five figures sat quietly on each of the left and right sides of the palace.

On the black throne at the head sat a young figure in a green robe with a calm expression.

At this moment.

Apart from the three figures on the right, the other seven people stood up at the same time.

"On behalf of the cultivation world of the Eastern Realm, we thank Fellow Daoist Qingxuan for his willingness to lend a helping hand when this world was facing a life-or-death crisis!"

"Fellow Daoists, there's no need for this!"

Li Qing slowly rose to return the greeting: "I also come from the cultivation world of the Eastern Heaven, so naturally I cannot bear to watch this world suffer."

"From now on, we are all on the same front, and we must work together to resist the powerful enemy!"

"We are willing to follow Fellow Daoist Qingxuan's arrangements!"

Looking at everyone's reactions, Li Qing smiled faintly: "This operation is also a new opportunity for us!"

"With the withdrawal of the three top powers in the Central Sea, the future situation of the cultivation world in the Eastern Heaven will no longer be related to them and will be completely under our control."

Faced with such blatant words of ambition, Ancestor Xu Hai and the others remained unfazed.

From the moment he chose to return to the Eastern World, all decisions in the cultivation world of the Eastern World will be controlled by him.

In the future battles between the Eastern Heaven and Earth cultivation world and the Ghost King Sect of the Golden Demon Kingdom, their top Nascent Soul forces have become supporting characters.

They all knew very well that the real source of their confidence, which determined the final outcome of the great battle, lay in their methods of confronting terrifying powerhouses at the peak of the late Nascent Soul stage.

"I wonder what Fellow Daoist Qingxuan plans to do?"

Ancestor Xuhai took the initiative to ask.

"Wait!"

Li Qing nodded quietly.

"Right now, the Golden Demon Kingdom and the Ghost King Sect are still unaware of the full situation. They probably don't expect that the current battlefield defenses have already surpassed theirs!"

Ancestor Xu Hai and the others nodded in unison.

When the Golden Demon Kingdom mobilized its full strength last time, eight powerful late-stage fourth-tier demon kings appeared. These ten, along with the unfathomably powerful Azure Profound True Monarch, held an absolute advantage.

"The Earth Barbarian True Lord has already sent word that he will no longer engage in peace talks with the Golden Demon Kingdom. It won't be long before the Golden Demon Kingdom launches a new offensive. We just need to wait and see."

The next moment, Li Qing looked at the three old men on his right.

"The three of you do not need to participate in this first battle!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked surprised.

Faced with the puzzled looks from the crowd, Li Qing smiled slightly and said, "If we all show ourselves and make a move, although it may bring a huge surprise to the Golden Demon Kingdom, it would also expose all our trump cards!"

"When the Golden Demon Kingdom launches its next offensive, it will certainly be much better prepared."

A profound meaning flashed in Li Qing's eyes.

"It would be better to use a slow, insidious method to gradually weaken the Golden Demon Kingdom's power."

He naturally couldn't possibly go all out right away to repel the Golden Demon Kingdom's offensive.

After all, that was only one of his goals. He had an even more important goal: to take the opportunity to hunt down a powerful fourth-tier late-stage dragon demon king and help the Blood Spirit Dragon advance in rank.

Only by waging this kind of protracted war of attrition can the Golden Demon Kingdom continuously send out powerful late-stage fourth-tier Flood Dragon Demon Kings to participate in the war, thus maximizing its benefits.

"We have no objections!"

The elders from the other three ancient families of the Daoyuan Chamber of Commerce, all in the late Nascent Soul stage, nodded in agreement.

"Fellow Daoist Qingxuan's plan is excellent!"

Ancestor Xu Hai laughed repeatedly, "In this way, we will have more opportunities to surround and kill the late-stage fourth-tier demon king of the Golden Demon Kingdom."

After some discussion.

The crowd waited quietly in the main hall for the Golden Demon Kingdom's offensive.
-
It turns out.

The Golden Demon Kingdom was far less patient than anyone had anticipated.

Seeing that it had lost contact with the three top powers in the central sea area, the Golden Demon Kingdom quickly set out to launch a new offensive.

Seven days later.

At the edge of the Bianyu Sea, an unimaginable tide of beasts has gathered.

A vast expanse of demonic energy enveloped the heavens and earth, resembling an ever-expanding demon realm that was rapidly approaching.

"Activate the grand formation, prepare for battle!"

A loud shout resounded like a great bell echoing throughout the land.

Throughout the entire defensive line, endless array light soared into the sky, transforming into magnificent array diagrams depicting the heavens and earth.

An unimaginable torrent of cultivators entered each of the array's key points.

Inside a grand formation resembling a blooming golden lotus.

Five figures soared into the sky.

"Fellow Daoist Yan, the Golden Demon Kingdom is about to launch an offensive!"

Gazing at the endless tide of beasts in the distance, the True Monarch of the Primordial Beasts wore a solemn expression.

"Yes, it's about to begin!"

Yan Yingjun's face was full of nonchalance.

His purpose in coming here was simply to lead the disciples of the Thousand Waters Spirit Control Sect into this battlefield for trials. He himself did not pursue any military achievements, so naturally he had nothing to worry about.

Moreover, with his current abilities, even if he encounters a sudden crisis, he would have more than enough to save his life.

As if he had thought of something, Yan Yingjun couldn't help but look at the quiet young figure in black robes beside him, a serious look appearing in his eyes.

"We still can't be careless. No matter what happens, we must protect our senior disciple, Brother Li!"

This was his biggest task on this trip.

"Nephew Guan, this battle is no small matter. We must proceed with caution and not be careless."

Yan Yingjun, impatient, spoke up again to offer his advice.

They were afraid that Guan Ming might act impulsively and get into danger.

This battle is no small matter. The enemy is the Golden Demon Kingdom, which has powerful cultivators at the level of Grand Masters and at least several late-stage fourth-order demon kings.

"Fellow Daoist Yan is right. Young Friend Guan has only recently been promoted, so we should still be cautious!"

At the same time, the beautiful woman from the Ice Palace, Han Yue, spoke up to comfort Guan Ming.

Ice Palace's trip was merely to demonstrate its stance, and she only brought one Nascent Soul stage elder from the sect.

Among the five of them, she was the only one at the peak of the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm. Such strength was still insignificant in this terrifying battlefield.

All four of them knew very well that ensuring the safety of this eldest disciple of True Monarch Qingxuan was more important than defending the front line and protecting the arriving sect disciples.

In the current cultivation world of the Eastern Realm, no one can withstand the wrath of that Azure Profound True Monarch.

"Uncle-Master and Palace Mistress Hanyue, please rest assured!"

Faced with such a concerned scene, Guan Ming couldn't help but reveal a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

However, he also understood that Uncle Yan and the Palace Master of Hanyue Palace were naturally afraid of their master's reprimand.

"I am only here for a trial, so I will naturally proceed with caution."

At this moment.

The great battle has fully erupted. The vast sea and sky in front of the great formation are now filled with endless demonic beasts.

Above the sky, countless blue-black flying beasts blotted out the sun and swooped down towards the great formation. Below the sea, various sea beasts covered in strange scales quickly surrounded the great formation.
-
On the central battlefield.

Roar! !

The deafening roar seemed to emanate from the endless void, causing countless ripples to spread through the surrounding space.

A three-eyed golden beast, over a hundred feet tall and covered in long, golden fur, stood high above the battlefield.

Behind them, terrifying demonic bodies, as large as mountains, coiled up simultaneously, their terrifying demonic aura raging across the heavens and earth.

The eight late-stage fourth-tier demon kings from the Golden Demon Kingdom, who had previously appeared, simultaneously made their appearance.

at the same time.

One after another, seemingly small figures, yet radiating immense power, stood suspended in mid-air on the other side of the battlefield.

"Where is the Earth Barbarian True Lord?"

The three-eyed golden-haired beast at the head let out another low roar, and its three demonic eyes, like golden wheels, lit up at the same time, illuminating the world like three golden suns.

At this moment, the eight powerful demon kings from the Golden Demon Kingdom also realized that something was wrong.

Two more Nascent Soul stage cultivators who should have belonged to the Ghost King Sect's battlefield have appeared in the opposing camp, while the two from the Desolate Ancestor Hall who were previously stationed on the battlefield have disappeared.

In an instant, countless demonic eyes converged on the young human cultivator in a green robe who was leading the group in the distance.

"This person actually showed up!"

One of them, a strange demon king with three heads, exuded overwhelming demonic energy and its demonic eyes flickered secretly.

He was naturally very familiar with that young human figure in a green robe.

Once upon a time, when the other party was still at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, he escaped from his pursuit.

Today, when they meet again, the other party has grown into a powerful cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage of the human race, whose cultivation is no less than his.

"The human race's talent for cultivation is truly terrifying!"

The three-headed venerable one couldn't help but feel a sense of horror.

The opponent's strength increased by an almost terrifying amount of time, yet it only took a little over a hundred years.

For a demon king of his caliber, such a period of time was nothing more than a nap or a deep sleep.

"True Lord Qingxuan, before his advancement, this person topped the Earthly Fiend Ranking, which was hailed as the future of the human race."

Although it is a demon kingdom, the demons in the Golden Demon Kingdom are also very knowledgeable about the changes in the human cultivation world.

As if remembering something, the Three-Headed Venerable One felt a tremor in his heart.

He clearly remembered that when that human cultivator escaped from his grasp, he used the power of the legendary ancient spirit Kunpeng.

Just then, the Three-Headed Venerable suddenly noticed that the young figure in the green robe was also looking at him.

Seeing this, he felt a chill run down his spine, but the next moment, the other party had already shifted his gaze and continued to look at the other demon kings and powerful beings.

"We must be careful of this person's methods; we cannot fight him head-on."

the other side.

After briefly examining the eight powerful demon kings, Li Qing frowned slightly.

"On a?"

Among the powerful demon kings, only the three-eyed golden-haired wolves had a golden dragon with an endless, coiled body to their left.

This was somewhat unexpected for him.

The last time the Golden Demon Kingdom made a move, it wasn't just one Golden Flood Dragon Demon King. Unexpectedly, the Golden Demon Kingdom secretly replaced the powerful Demon King in charge.

"You are True Lord Qingxuan?"

"Why don't you answer the questions I'm asking you?"

An unprecedentedly ferocious aura erupted around the three-eyed golden-haired beast.

The three-eyed golden-haired beast, which was originally shining with golden light and exuding a mysterious aura, now seemed to have completely transformed into an ancient ferocious beast.

"How dare you, you beast, be so arrogant!"

Li Qing gave a cold, expressionless shout.

Roar!Roar!Roar!
In an instant, the eight powerful demon kings roared simultaneously, their unimaginable killing intent, as if sent down from the heavens, enveloping Li Qing.

Even the former Desolate Ancestor Palace Earth Barbarian True Lord wouldn't dare to be so arrogant.

At their level, even when encountering a Nascent Soul cultivator from the human race, they would normally address each other as "fellow Daoist."

That word "beast" was undoubtedly an insult to them.

"Slaughter all human cultivators, leave no one alive!"

The three-eyed golden-haired beast roared angrily, issuing a new command, and then led seven powerful demon kings to charge towards Li Qing and the others.

A real war is about to break out.

Boom! !

The fourth-order superior-grade array set up by the Desolate Ancestor Palace was activated simultaneously.

Towering, azure-yellow peaks rise abruptly from the ground, suppressing heaven and earth, while torrents of water descend like chains of heaven and earth.

He was facing a three-eyed golden-haired beast charging directly at him.

Li Qing remained expressionless.

The Heavenly Water Dao Scripture began to operate wildly.

An unimaginable ocean of magical power poured forth, and the Azure Lotus and the Water-Sky Spear soared into the sky.

Although his target was the late-stage fourth-tier Golden Flood Dragon Demon King, he also had to block the attack from the Three-Eyed Golden-Haired Hou.

The strength of the rest, including Ancestor Xu Hai, was clearly no match for him.

According to previous reports, this demon fought against the Earth Barbarian True Monarch in the last great battle without being at a disadvantage, and its strength was approaching the peak of the late fourth stage.

boom! boom! boom!
Accompanied by a deafening roar that shook the heavens and earth.

Xu Hai Lao Zu and the others have also found their respective opponents.

Among them, Ancestor Qingyang faced off against the Three-Headed Venerable, Ancestor Junmu battled against a giant python demon king with a body entirely blue-black and covered in sharp, blade-like scales, while Ancestor Xuhai, who was closest to Li Qing, began to fight against the golden dragon demon king.

The illusory blue lotus blossoms bloomed across the heavens and earth, transforming into a lotus pond world.

A giant golden beast with three pupils strode through the air, its golden light, like sharp blades of heaven and earth, piercing and obliterating countless blue lotuses.

Although the Three-Eyed Golden-Haired Hou appears to be the smallest among all the powerful demon kings, its physical body is actually the strongest.

boom! boom!
The continuously emerging phantoms of the precious lotus rushed towards the three-eyed golden-haired beast, constantly self-destructing. However, its terrifying destructive power could only cause the golden light around it to collapse. The divine and dazzling golden fur was like a layer of armor, blocking all the self-destructive attacks of the phantoms of the precious lotus.

In the blink of an eye, the three-eyed golden-haired beast broke through layers of obstacles and descended towards Li Qing.

Despite this, Li Qing remained calm.

He ignored the attack in front of him and turned his gaze to another battlefield.

That was the battlefield where Ancestor Xuhai fought against the Golden Flood Dragon Demon King.

"I hope Fellow Daoist Xu Hai can keep him here. This demon is of great importance to me, and I will certainly lend you a hand."

At this moment.

Seeing that Li Qing didn't take him seriously at all and was still focused on other battlefields, the powerful Three-Eyed Golden-Haired Hou Demon King became even more furious.

Accompanied by roars.

Three enormous golden demonic eyes erupted simultaneously, and countless fine demonic patterns intertwined.
