This was an unexpected and fierce battle.
The strength of the desert demons was extremely strong. Each of them was comparable to the authentic King Pill of Nine Regions. Their individual strength was better than the King Pill soaked in gutter oil of the disciples of Spirit Sword Sect. And their array was even stronger. The actions of dozens of people seemed to be disorderly and often inexplicable, but by raising their hands and feet, they could draw great power. In a head-on collision with the combined sword array of Lingjian School led by Wang Lu, they did not fall into a disadvantageous position at all!
Every time the two sides collided, it would cause the earth to shake. The aftermath of the sword qi continued to sweep and wreak havoc, which actually dispersed the black tide that shrouded this place, revealing the clear sky.
However, the blue sky was soon lost under the violent turbulence of energy. Sometimes, a deep night sky appeared, sometimes lightning flashed, thunder rolled, clouds and mist shrouded the sky, and sometimes the sun shone high...
It could be seen how fierce this fierce battle was. Wang Lu stood on the main position of the three individual sword array. The more he fought, the more alarmed he became. Three years ago, when he formulated this double array strategy, he never thought that there would be someone who could compete with the sword array head-on!
Of course, strictly speaking … if the Demon King could solve the threat of Fenrir within three years and completely recover from his injury, then the complete form of the Demon King was enough to crush everything. In that case, everyone could only go to hell together. However, at present, although the Demon King had not recovered from his injury, his bodyguards were unusually powerful.
"Are they really just King Pill level?"
After the fierce battle, Ouyang Shang could not help but ask.
Wang Lu replied in a sinking voice, "According to the classification of human beings, they are indeed King Pill level, ranging from peak King Pill to low-level. On average, they are not much higher than us, and they are still inferior in number, but …"
However, after fighting for a long time, the side of Spirit Sword Sect could not gain the slightest advantage. Let alone crossing their line of defense to kill the Demon King … Instead, they were forced to slowly retreat by the other side. And this was still led by Wang Lu, who had the sharpest offensive in the three individual sword array. When Wang Lu's primordial spirit flickered and needed to be replaced, the situation would only get worse.
"… It's the difference in formations."
Fei Ying's voice suddenly came from the link of their Nascent Souls. She was in the center of the 72 Earthly Fiend Formation, the only node that was closely connected to the Three Greats Sword Formation. Therefore, she could communicate with Wang Lu and the rest.
Fei Ying was an expert in formations, and when it came to talent and perception, she was even above the all-rounded Ouyang Shang. At this time, after a period of observation, she determined that the quality of the formation used by the demons was above their own combined sword formation.
"The difference in formation, huh …" Ouyang Shang suddenly felt that the matter was even more troublesome. This combined sword formation was originally conceived by him and Wang Lu without eating or sleeping, and then it was finally formed after everyone's repair, condensing the wisdom of the golden generation. Although its performance was still inferior to many famous formations of the Nascent Soul and Deity Transformation Stage, it was already the pinnacle of the King Pill realm.
The stronger the formation, the better. For example, the legendary Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, which could kill immortals in the primordial times, was naturally far superior to the Three Greats Sword Formation in terms of mystery and power. However, that sword formation could not be used by those who were not at the True Monarch level, and was far from being as close to the people as the Three Greats Sword Formation. At this stage of the King Pill, the combined sword formation could be said to be the peak.
Unexpectedly, there was always a higher mountain. The formation used by the demons was obviously a level higher. After the battle, it only made people feel tied, and the situation was getting worse.
"There is a difference in individual combat strength and formation design. This battle is not going to be easy."
In the Nascent Soul link, Fei Ying sighed helplessly.
"Don't think about it. Leave the battle to us. There will always be a way." Ouyang Shang comforted Fei Ying and then said to Wang Lu, "If you can't hold on, let's change people. I see that your Nascent Soul is almost at its limit."
Wang Lu, however, disagreed. "Would it make the situation worse if you came up? Right now, with me in the lead, we are barely in a balance. Once we weaken, the situation will immediately snowball, and there will be no turning back. "
"… The problem is, won't the situation get worse after you run out of energy?"
"So before I run out of energy … I have to think of some tricks." Wang Lu gritted his teeth. "Prepare a suicide team."
"A suicide team!?" Ouyang Shang's eyes narrowed. "Are you serious?"
"What else? Compete in endurance and wait for them to run out of energy first? I think their situation is much better than ours, so they can't compete in endurance. If we don't use a big move, it's impossible to turn the situation around. "
"Your so-called big move is to let one of your junior brothers and sisters go up and explode the King Pill?"
"Or do you have other big moves? Tell me!"
"… I can't agree. Even if we can face the sacrifice calmly, this move of yours is too risky. The number of people in our combined sword formation is just right, not one more. Once we explode the King Pill, it's equivalent to destroying the sword formation. If we can't shatter the opponent's formation, it's equivalent to suicide! "
Wang Lu said. "There's a gold substitute, Autumn Beam, who can support us."
"It's fine before the formation, but now that the formation is operating at full capacity, how can Autumn Beam intervene? Once a new person is inserted, it will cause the formation to stagnate, it's also suicide! "
"Oh? In that case, it seems that Eldest Senior Brother has thought of a certain method that doesn't require you to take any risks, yet is stable enough to win? "
Ouyang Shang was silent for a moment. "Let me go up and try. If it doesn't work, you can find someone to explode."
"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news."
— —
After Ouyang Shang went up, the situation did not improve. Of course, it was not as bad as Wang Lu had expected. Although the explosive power was not as heaven defying as the Primal Chaos Heaven Splitting Sword Qi, Ouyang Shang skillfully used the power of the earth to deal with the demons.
Of course, a large part of this came from the inexplicable blessing of the earth. Eighty percent of his strength was very effective. Ouyang Shang relied on his extraordinary performance to barely maintain the situation. Unfortunately, even when his primordial spirit was boiling and he could not fight anymore, he could not find an opportunity to turn the tables.
After Ouyang Shang retreated, it was Zhang Sheng's turn. But facing this Emotion Sword sword cultivator, it was really hard for anyone to have much confidence. Zhang Sheng's performance was indeed very outstanding, but he could not compare with Ouyang Shang and Wang Lu. Therefore, at the same time he went up, Wang Lu was already prepared to choose a suitable King Pill from the 72 Earth Fiend Formation to explode.
But at this time, the demon formation also began to decline from prosperity. Not only did the output of the demons in the formation begin to gradually decrease, they also appeared a little stiff when changing the formation, and their flexibility was not as good as before. And in a stalemate, this change was particularly eye-catching.
Because what was needed to break the stalemate was precisely this little change.
"This is …" Wang Lu looked at the change in the situation in front of him in confusion. "Could it be that the demons' endurance is really not good? The validity of the formation has already passed? "
Ouyang Shang was also puzzled. "Or does the Emotion Sword have a special effect on these desert demons?"
"Or …"
The two of them could not figure out the mystery for a while, but they were not particularly obsessed with this problem. Now, what they had to do was to fully support Zhang Sheng as the leader and exert the power of his Emotion Sword to the extreme.
And Zhang Sheng would not be distracted to think about other things. Instead, he was completely immersed in the Emotion Sword. The tangible sword in his hand was waved with all his strength, guiding the King Pill true qi into invisible sword qi, which burst out after being entangled by the emotions brewed in his immortal heart.
"Chaos!"
The sword of confusion and confusion. When the sword was released, the edge of the sword was erratic, like the broken moon in the water. The demon shield guard in front of the formation only felt a blur in front of his eyes, and the arc-shaped sword qi had bypassed his heavy shield and struck his shoulder. The heavy armor offset the sharpness of the sword qi, but the confused and confused emotions still penetrated in. The emotions entangled his heart, causing the demon to suddenly be stunned on the spot.
In a split second, the demon's heart was filled with confusion. Countless forgotten scenes flashed before his eyes: the arduous but simple life in the tribe, the daily blacksmithing practice, the secret feelings he had with his childhood sweetheart … until the awakening of his ancestor's bloodline, the old life was torn apart.
I … why do I have to fight? Even if I win against the person in front of me, can everything I hope come back?
The bewilderment of the shield guards caused the entire demon array to become sluggish. Zhang Sheng immediately stepped forward, taking advantage of the victory to pursue and attack. However, the demon array also changed very quickly. Hundreds and thousands of shadow spears stabbed out like a storm, forcing Zhang Sheng to place his sword horizontally and use his bluntness to prop up his sword defense to block the spears.
When Zhang Sheng found a flaw in the demon's offensive, the opponent's formation had changed to another person. It was a butcher with the same tall and burly figure and burning flames in his eyes. With him as the core, the demon formation became blazing hot, and Zhang Sheng's confused emotions were burned out in an instant.
Zhang Sheng took a deep breath and operated his immortal heart. The confused thoughts in his heart were swept away, replaced by blazing fighting intent, as if a flame was ignited.
"Burn!"
After the red sword qi shot out, it turned into a sea of fire, adding another fire to the blazing demon formation, adding oil to the fire!
"Roar!" The bloodthirsty butcher's only rationality was burned away, and his tyrannical killing intent was unstoppable. He left the formation and launched a surprise attack. The blood-stained axe and machete pointed straight at Zhang Sheng, his killing intent like a sea. Zhang Sheng retreated behind the scenes at this time. Wang Lu, who was already prepared, walked to the front of the stage, and the primal chaos heaven splitting sword qi that was full of power erupted!
Half of the butcher's body melted like snow and was completely annihilated under the primal chaos heaven splitting sword qi. Without the protection of the formation, the demon's single combat power was vulnerable in front of the combined sword formation, and Wang Lu's attack succeeded, so he took a step back and gave up the main position. Zhang Sheng took a breath and immediately replaced him. When he attacked, the sword intent was cold and bone-piercing.
"Sorrow!"
When the butcher was executed and the demons were shocked and mourning, Zhang Sheng's sorrowful sword fell just at the right time. The sorrowful sword intent was like a heavy snow falling from the sky, sweeping through the hearts of every demon and freezing all emotions.
The whole formation stagnated, and the rock-solid combination suddenly became scattered.
This time, there was no need to change people, because Zhang Sheng had already brewed the sharpest sword intent to perfection.
That was the sword with the most destructive and lethal power among the Emotion Swords. Under full force, its power could even compete with the Primal Chaos Heaven Splitting Sword Qi. And if it fell into the Demon Race's war, it only needed one strike to decide the outcome!
However, at this time, Zhang Sheng suddenly felt his primordial spirit tremble, and the sword intent that was brewed to perfection was slightly scattered.
It was not his own problem, but the supply of magical power from the 72 Earth Fiend Great Array began to waver. The combined sword formation produced a chain reaction, and his emotion sword was also greatly affected.
"What!?"
"… Time." Wang Lu replied in a muffled voice.
"Time?!" Zhang Sheng suddenly realized that … the time was about to come.
The combined sword formation could only last for an hour. Previously, the Three Talents Sword Formation had taken turns to display its might, continuously advancing hundreds of miles, crossing more than half of the way home, and then fighting with the resurrected Devil Clan … The time had finally come to an end.
