How can simply creating a sect make you invincible?

Early the next morning.

The outer edge of the Monster Forest was filled with demonic energy, and there was a densely packed army of 500,000 monsters, the lowest of which were fourth-tier monsters.

Leading the pack was a gigantic ancient bull; with each step it took, the ground shook.

Behind it followed eight lesser demon emperors and twenty demon kings.

With a command from the Demon King of the Bull, "All demon armies, listen to my order! Follow me to take down the human race's Canglan City!"

Upon hearing the Demon Emperor's command, the army of demonic beasts behind them roared with excitement.

The terrifying roar of the beast reverberated even in Canglan City, thousands of miles away.

At this moment, the people in the Fu family were still immersed in yesterday's joy.

But the sudden roar of the beast startled everyone. The ancestors and elders of the Ling and Fu families exchanged glances. Without saying a word, they flashed and appeared on the Canglan City Wall in the next second.

But what they saw next was something they would never forget.

A soaring demonic aura was seen approaching Canglan City step by step in the distance, and even from this distance, the ground could be felt to tremble slightly.

Upon seeing this, the fourth patriarch of the Ling family also had his pupils shrink, and immediately spoke sternly: "Young friend Fu, immediately inform everyone in Canglan City that another army of demonic beasts is attacking the city, and have them come to defend Canglan City immediately."

"Yes, I'll arrange it right away." Upon seeing this, the eldest patriarch of the Fu family immediately instructed the head of the Fu family to notify the major families.

"Lingdu, immediately send a message back to the family and ask them to send more elders to provide support. Also, arrange for our Ling family's vassal forces to send people as well. I can sense an aura among the demon beast army that is no weaker than mine, and there are even seven or eight lesser demon emperors and twenty demon kings among them."

"Moreover, the demon beast army that has come this time consists of high-level demon beasts. I sensed that there are about 500,000 demon beasts. This time, Canglan City is in grave danger."

Upon hearing the Fourth Ancestor's words, the elder of the Ling family dared not be negligent in the slightest and immediately took out his communication token to send the message back.

"Young friend Fu, activate the city's defensive formation! Although I can deal with that demon emperor, there are still seven or eight lesser demon emperors and twenty demon kings on the other side, while we only have you and Ling Du, both at the Saint King level, and we simply cannot withstand their offensive."

"At present, we can only defend Canglan to the death and must not step out of Canglan City. We can only launch a full-scale counterattack when reinforcements arrive."

Upon hearing the words of the fourth patriarch of the Ling family, the eldest patriarch of the Fu family immediately cupped his hands and replied, "Yes, Senior Ling, we will follow your arrangements."

"Third brother, immediately activate the city's defensive formation. Second brother, go and notify all cultivators in Canglan City at the Foundation Establishment stage or above to come and join the battle."

Upon hearing this, the fourth patriarch of the Ling family slowly spoke up: "Wait, don't let the Foundation Establishment cultivators come. The enemy's demon beast army is at least at the fourth level. If they come, they'll just be throwing their lives away. There's no need for them."

Upon hearing this, the two ancestors of the Fu family dared not delay and immediately went to deliver the message.

Hearing that another army of demonic beasts was coming to attack the city, and that these beasts were even more terrifying than those of the previous days, panic had begun to grip the city of Canglan.

Half an hour later.

Beneath Canglan City, demonic energy soared to the sky, and a dense army of demonic beasts numbered a full 500,000.

The Bull Demon King looked at the Canglan City wall and smiled disdainfully: "There is a human Great Sage in Canglan City. After the city is breached, hand him over to me. The remaining two Saint Kings and six Saints are yours. If you can't even take them down, then you can bring your heads to me."

Upon hearing the Demon Emperor's words, the eight Lesser Demon Emperors and the twenty Demon Kings burst into laughter.

One of the Crimson Flame Tigers shouted, "Don't worry, Demon Emperor. If we still lose like this, you don't need to tell me. I myself won't have the face to come back to see you."

Upon hearing this, the Bull Demon King laughed heartily: "Very good. There are only a few hundred thousand human cultivators on the other side. Today we will break through Canglan City and strive to take the entire city tomorrow."

Meanwhile, atop the city wall, the fourth patriarch of the Ling family roared, "You demon race have some nerve, daring to invade our human territory! Do you intend to wage war against us humans to the death?"

Upon hearing the words of the fourth ancestor of the Ling family, the Primordial Bull laughed loudly: "Invading your human territory? Haven't you humans slaughtered hundreds of thousands of my demons these past few days? How do you plan to settle this score?"

Upon hearing this, the fourth patriarch of the Ling family snorted coldly and replied, "It was your demon race that allowed those lesser demons to rush into our human towns and villages, forcing us to take action to kill these demon beasts."

Upon hearing this, the Primordial Bull became even more enraged and shouted, "Killing six or seven hundred thousand of my demon race members is what you call being forced to do it? Today, I'm here to collect a debt. If you know what's good for you, obediently come out and accept your death, and then hand over the entire city."

"Don't even think about it. If you have the guts, come and attack the city." The fourth ancestor of the Ling family tried to use the power of the human race to see if he could scare them away, but it was no use at all.

"Very well! Then I will grant your request."

The Bull Demon King's voice boomed like thunder: "All demons, heed my command! Give your full strength and breach the city!"

The moment the words were spoken, the 500,000 demonic beasts moved.

The earth trembled the moment the more than 300,000 armored rhinoceroses, war bears, mighty bulls, blood-mane lions, and swift shadow leopards in the front row took off. They charged toward the city gate at top speed, raising clouds of dust behind them.

On one side of the demon beast army were the flying demon beasts led by the Soul-Devouring Sparrow—Iron-Winged Eagles, Blood-Feathered Cranes, Thunder Falcons, and so on. A dense 100,000 flying demon beasts arrived above Canglan City, instantly covering the entire sky above the city, a dark and oppressive mass, as if dark clouds were pressing down from above.

Behind the armored rhinoceroses and war bears were tens of thousands of colossal beasts, each the size of a mountain. Entangling spiders, crimson-eyed wolves, seven-colored pythons, and giant golden apes, each possessing cultivation levels of the seventh, eighth, or ninth rank, approached Canglan City step by step, each step causing the city's protective array to tremble violently.

Five hundred thousand demonic beasts charged forward.

At this moment, even the spiritual energy between heaven and earth was almost solidified by the demonic energy.

Seeing this, everyone on the city wall felt a chill run down their spines.

This isn't an attack on the city; it's a massacre.

The fourth patriarch of the Ling family, with a solemn expression, gave the order in a deep voice:

"The three young friends from the Fu family, along with Ling Du, you and the other four elders of the Ling family, are responsible for guarding all the key points of the city's defensive array. You must hold out until reinforcements arrive."

The eight people responded in unison, "Yes!"

Even the fourth patriarch of the Ling family was not confident that he could defend Canglan City. If the city fell, everyone would be doomed.

Rumble!

The first wave of impact has arrived.

Tens of thousands of armored rhinoceroses charged simultaneously at the southeast corner of the city's protective formation. Each one possessed a cultivation level of 4th or 5th rank, and their combined attack crashed into the formation like a mountain.

The light from the great array suddenly dimmed a bit.

"Stabilize the situation right now!"

At the heart of the formation, the Fu family patriarch shouted, and everyone poured their spiritual energy into the formation's core.

The array lit up again, but everyone knew that this was only the first wave of attack.

More than 200,000 demonic beasts are attacking the formation from all directions.

Meanwhile, the eighth and ninth-tier demons were waiting, waiting for the moment when cracks appeared in the great formation, so they could deliver a fatal blow to it.

On the city wall, a guard disciple stood, his face pale and his voice trembling:

"Can we really hold out?"
