The crystal core of a tenth-grade divine beast was extremely precious. Apart from the dragon race, it was very difficult to even see a tenth-grade divine beast. Moreover, these divine beasts were rather terrifying. Demon Masters below the level of 9 Crowns couldn't possibly kill a tenth-grade divine beast alone. However, the crystal core of a tenth-grade divine beast also contained the purest mana of its element. It could be said to be the greatest tonic for Demon Masters. As Ah Jin moved, she continuously distributed the crystal cores of these tenth-grade dragons to her companions according to their attributes. With the cultivation of the Holy Disciples, even though they were fighting, they could still absorb the mana in these crystal cores to replenish themselves. This allowed them to fight for a longer period of time.
However, it was also at this moment that the Saints met with trouble. A sudden beam of red light struck Ah Jin's body and forcefully interrupted her massacre. Ah Jin's entire body was sent flying. She landed heavily on the body of a tenth-grade dragon before rebounding.
If it wasn't for the fact that Ajin's body had absorbed the Dark Metal Divine Beast's crystal core and the Dark Metal Death Guard's crystal crown after killing the Dark Metal Death Guard, which increased her body's strength to the Saint Level Intermediate Level, she would have been severely injured by this attack.
Only then did the Holy Disciples realize that when the Dark Demon Masters in the air fleet retreated and allowed the Darkness Dragons to take their place, the Dark Demon Masters had already quickly set up a formation on the periphery. According to their attributes, there were 100 people in a group. The attack just now was the superimposed demonic skill of 100 Third Fire-type Dark Demon Masters. It should be known that the average cultivation of these Dark Demon Masters was above the level of 7 Crowns. When they worked together, it was extremely terrifying. The demonic skill that struck Ah Jin just now had the power of a high-level ultimate skill. In the process of continuously killing the Darkness Dragons, Ah Jin was caught off guard and suffered some minor injuries.
Ah Jin was only the first. At the same time, one powerful skill after another bombarded Radiance and the Saints from all directions. Even if they were powerful and had the support of the Mana Array, they had no choice but to deal with the joint attack of the Dark Dragon Air Force. It was already impossible for them to kill the Dark Dragons.
Compared to them, the situation of the Light Dragon Emperor on the other side was even more precarious. His strength was only comparable to that of the Dark Dragon Emperor. After the Dark Dragon Emperor lost one of its claws, its magic power did not decrease much. Only its body was slightly affected, and its overall strength was slightly weaker than the Light Dragon Emperor. However, now that the Dark Dragon Emperor had joined forces with the four Dark Dragon Kings, the situation was completely different. The Light Dragon Emperor couldn't even be considered tired of dealing with them, and the injuries on his body were increasing.
The Light Dragons in the fortress were already very anxious, but they couldn't help at all. The Dark Magic Air Force's strength and command were excellent. Out of the six thousand Dark Magicians, only about a hundred were killed. The rest were divided into two groups. One group focused on attacking Radiant God and the Holy Disciples, while the other group suppressed the Light Magicians and Light Dragons who wanted to help Radiant God and the Holy Disciples.
Even the Dragon Kings of the Light Dragon Clan could not break free from the bombardment. They could only watch helplessly as the Light Dragon, Saint, and the Light Dragon Emperor were besieged by their opponents. Although they could still hold on for a short period of time, it wouldn't be long. Once they could no longer hold on, it would bring destruction in the next moment.
Not only was the situation in the sky getting worse, but it was also the same on the ground. The Darkness Army had already stopped 2.5 kilometers away from the Radiant Fortress, and began to attack the Light Mages. This distance was a position that no city defense equipment could reach, and the Dark Demon Army could also launch an attack on the Radiant Fortress from this distance. The mana of both sides was being consumed rapidly. During this crisis, Chrysanthemum Pig had already launched another attack. Moreover, the group of Dark Mages on the city wall had also joined the battle, and with their powerful mana, they barely stabilized the situation. However, there were too many Dark Mages, and Dark Tianji still hadn't made a move yet. On the Radiant Army's side, they could only leave the Light Heavenly Stem Divine Beasts to be ready to respond at any time, and dared not fully participate in the battlefield. Once the battle in the air ended, the Radiant Fortress might not be able to hold on until today. Even if it could hold on, it was unknown how heavy the price would be.
Ji Yunsheng's face was ashen. His plan needed time, but the fierce attack of the Darkness Army didn't seem to be giving him time at all. Whether they could hold on today was a problem. He was very clear that the root cause of the current situation was caused by the hundreds of years of peace in the Radiant Five Elements Continent. 500 years of peace had made all countries focus their energy on comprehensive economic development, enhancing national strength, and so on. Although every country also had a large number of armies, it was difficult to train Dark Mages because of their transcendent status. The long period of peace had led to such a huge gap between the Radiant Continent and the Darkness Continent, and this was under the circumstance that the strength of the other side had been greatly weakened by the Saints of the Radiant Empire. Ji Yunsheng's hands were already clenched tightly. He had done all he could. He only hoped that before the end of the battle in the air, the mana of the Dark Demon Army could be exhausted. Only then could they have a chance of survival. However, would the Saints of the Radiant Empire be able to come back alive?
Just when the Radiant Army was at a critical juncture, a smear of red suddenly appeared in the distant sky behind the Radiant Army. At first, this smear of red did not attract anyone's attention, but soon, this red gradually spread towards the battlefield. Moreover, it was no longer just a smear, but a stretch of red clouds that stretched as far as the eye could see, rapidly spreading towards the battlefield.
The dark race army had discovered this red cloud a little earlier because they had been facing this red cloud and hadn't made a move yet. The expressions of the purple-robed high priests who were guarding the dark heaven's secrets all changed slightly.
"What is that?"
The Chief High Priest asked doubtfully.
Dark Tianji also raised his head to look at the red cloud, but his usual strength seemed to have disappeared again. He just frowned slightly and said indifferently, "Wait and see."
The speed of the red cloud did not seem to be fast, but that was because it was too huge. Soon, the sunlight in the sky was affected by the red clouds. Large patches of black shadows began to appear on the land that was originally bathed in sunlight. Only then did the Radiant Commanders, who had been paying attention to the battlefield, subconsciously raise their heads to look.
The Radiant Commanders naturally did not know what it was either. When they saw the huge red cloud that appeared almost ten thousand meters above the sky, they couldn't help but gasp. No one knew what was going on, but there was an invisible sense of oppression in everyone's hearts.
At this moment, the red cloud had already occupied half of the sky, but there was still no end to it. Moreover, this large patch of red cloud was actually descending continuously, which was also the main reason why they could not see the end.
The Saints of the Radiant Empire who were struggling to hold on naturally saw the appearance of the red cloud. The sudden appearance of this huge red cloud caused the attacks of the Dark Demon Army to slow down a little, giving them a chance to catch their breath.
"That is …"
Yao Qianshu said in a daze.
"It's Ji Dong, Ji Dong is here, it must be him."
Miao Miao screamed almost hysterically as her beautiful eyes were filled with excitement.
"It's Ji Dong, it's Ji Dong."
Yao Qianshu repeated Miao Miao's words, looking even crazier than Miao Miao's. "Your Majesty, hang in there. Ji Dong is here. Ji Dong is here with reinforcements!"
It was as if the Saints had suddenly taken stimulants. Every single one of them was bursting with unparalleled fighting spirit. They, who had been struggling to hold on, no longer had to pay attention to conserving their mana. Their mana was fully unleashed at this moment. They retreated instantly and forcefully rushed into the encirclement of the Dark Dragon Emperor and the four Dark Dragon Kings, gathered together, and attacked with all their might. Ji Dong's arrival also meant that hope had arrived. Others might not know what this boundless red cloud was, but how could they not know? They were the only ones who had seen such a situation before. Even though there hadn't been such a huge red cloud at that time, they could totally imagine where it had come from.
The red cloud was getting closer and closer, and the immense pressure it brought was the first to affect the dark air force. The Dark Mages kept looking up at the sky, but all they could see was a sea of red.
However, they could clearly feel that this huge red cloud contained an endless amount of fire elements! 'Such a huge area and such terrifying mana fluctuations … Could it be that another ultimate sure-kill skill has descended?'
Hei Tianji finally reacted. The faces of the purple-robed High Priests and Hei Tianji changed drastically. Hei Tianji's body even trembled slightly. However, no one was paying too much attention to him at this moment. Hence, none of the powerhouses around him noticed it. After experiencing the obstruction of the Red Lotus Heavenly Fire, the Dark Mages were most afraid of such a situation. Others might not know that their logistical supplies had been cut off, but top-notch Dark Mages like them naturally knew. If there was another Red Lotus Heavenly Fire five years later, then the dark army would return to reinforce the continent. They wouldn't know how much damage they would suffer, and they might never be able to organize such a large army again. Moreover, the internal friction brought about by quelling the chaos was something they couldn't afford. Their only way out was to invade the Five Elements Continent and plunder the wealth that belonged to the Radiant Church.
At this moment, the red clouds were getting lower and lower. All of a sudden, the huge red clouds in the sky began to tumble as though a pot was boiling. Then, hundreds of red lights descended from the sky at the same time and smashed into the Dark Race Air Fleet.
Massive fire-attribute mana burst forth in an instant, and explosions sounded in the sky almost at the same time. One after another, Dark Mages fell from the sky in this terrifying bombardment. However, those red lights seemed to be precisely guided, and they didn't hit the Light Dragon Emperor and the Radiant Church's Holy Disciples.
"Retreat! Retreat! Everyone retreat!"
Dark Fate yelled in panic. His order was immediately passed down to the dark army, and the Dark Mages at the front changed their attacks and reformed the Major Five Elements Barrier to protect the dark army as they retreated rapidly.
At this moment, the red cloud in the sky finally revealed its true form after launching a round of attacks.
Huge Fire Crows gradually revealed themselves, and the red cloud from before was formed by the fire elements emitted from their bodies. The dark army on the ground retreated in a rather orderly manner, but it was already impossible for the dark air force in the sky to retreat.
Every time there was a burst of flames, hundreds of red lights would descend from the sky. Every red light was a bombardment of mana from thousands of Fire Crows in the Fire Crow Formation. Even though the individual cultivation of the Fire Crows was very weak, the power of thousands of Fire Crows was still close to the power of a sure-kill technique. Hundreds of attacks were launched at the same time, and even the Dark Dragons couldn't resist it.
The elite dark air force's numbers kept decreasing under the bombardment of the red light beams. Although they had already retreated as fast as they could, the range of the Fire Crow Formation in the sky was too large. When they retreated to the ground and entered the protection of the Great Five Elements Boundary, less than a third of the dark aerial forces had survived. The situation of the dark dragons was slightly better, but there were only about 600 of the thousands of dark dragons left. The entire dark aerial force had suffered devastating damage.
Yes, Ji Dong had returned. The Fire Crows in the sky stopped attacking and cawed in unison. Their voices converged into a torrent that caused the entire Holy Evil Island to tremble.
Ji Dong's figure silently appeared in the sky amidst their collective caws. Chen Sixuan followed beside him, and their appearance at the same time caused all the Holy Disciples to cheer. Even though their voices were drowned out by the caws of the Fire Crows, their excitement spread to Ji Dong immediately.
Ah Jin was the first to pounce on Ji Dong. She only stopped abruptly when she was about to crash into Ji Dong's arms. Her raised hands froze in mid-air, and she looked at Chen Sixuan awkwardly.
A smile appeared on Ji Dong's face. He suddenly opened his arms and pulled Ah Jin into his embrace, hugging her tightly. However, before Ah Jin could react, Ji Dong had already let go of his arms and embraced the Radiant Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples, regardless of gender, who had rushed up from behind.
"I'm back."
This was the declaration of a tyrant.
