Hearing the golden-haired old man's order to open the City Defense Formation, the Celestial Phenomenon Realm elder who was in charge of the formation was startled.
The situation was critical. If the formation was opened at this time, wouldn't it be terrible if the enemy took the opportunity to invade the city?
However, after a slight hesitation, he still decided to follow the golden-haired old man's order. Soon, an opening that was more than a hundred feet long appeared on the formation.
"You stay here and continue to guard the city wall."
As Long Yinchan spoke, her figure flickered and she rushed out alone.
Behind her, a small troop of about a hundred people followed Long Yinchan. They flew out of Sky Phoenix City and faced the forty to fifty Demonic Corpses.
The keen-eyed people of the Long Family quickly noticed that among the hundred people, there were twenty people wearing black clothes. Their bodies were wrapped up tightly, revealing only a pair of slightly dull eyes.
The Long Family respected the color gold, so the soldiers' uniforms were also golden. The twenty people in black robes mixed in the crowd were quite eye-catching.
"I see, it's these people …"
The golden-haired old man muttered to himself.
At this time, the opening on the City Defense Formation quickly closed.
As Long Yinchan appeared in the sky, a gray escape light shot out from the back of the Liu Family army and directly pounced towards Long Yinchan.
Seeing this, Long Yinchan shouted delicately and took out a golden Dharma Wheel.
As she cast several spells, the golden wheel rotated rapidly and in the blink of an eye, it expanded by ten times. It was like a golden sun and flew towards the gray escape light.
"Whoosh!"
A dazzling gray light shot out from the gray figure's hand and collided with the golden wheel.
"Peng!" A loud sound rang out!
The two magic treasures shook violently and bounced off each other in the fierce collision of the gray and golden light.
Speaking of which, Long Yinchan and the gray figure opposite her had fought many times in the past few days. Therefore, they were quite familiar with each other's strength.
After this hit ended in a tie, both sides immediately took out their magic treasures and fought together.
At the same time, the hundred people led by Long Yinchan had already engaged in close combat with the Demonic Corpses.
In the time that Dragon Yinchan left the city, another hundred or so Celestial Phenomenon Ancient Devil Corpses crawled out from the ground, bringing the number of Celestial Phenomenon Ancient Devil Corpses on the battlefield to more than two hundred!
It was obvious that the Liu Family's army planned to break through the Heavenly Phoenix City in one fell swoop.
The grey figure that faced off against Long Yinchan was a middle-aged man with black hair. At the moment, there was a disdainful smile on his face.
The aura of these ancient devil corpses had reached the Celestial Phenomenon Realm. He was very clear about their true strength and unparalleled defense. Among the hundred-man team led by Long Yinchan, there weren't many Celestial Phenomenon Realm experts. It was impossible for them to stop these ancient devil corpses.
Long Yinchan's action was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot!
Long Yinchan's team was split into two groups. Among them, twenty black-robed men stepped out of the group and charged towards the Ancient Demon Corpses.
The remaining 80 demons gathered in front of the city wall and quickly formed a defensive formation. They did not seem to have any intention of attacking.
Just as the man on the Liu Family's side was a little surprised, there was a sudden change!
The twenty black-robed men let out a low roar at the same time. Their eyes flashed with a blood-red light and spots of bright black light suddenly appeared on their bodies. Then, they stretched out their arms and the black robes on their bodies burst open, revealing their muscular bodies. Their auras also rose steadily.
They were the Demon Star Guards!
The Liu Family's Tong Xuan's face changed. At this moment, the black-robed men emitted a strong aura. Impressively, they had all reached the Celestial Phenomenon Realm. Moreover, there was a strange aura in their auras.
"Kill!" The leader of the black-robed men let out a low roar. The twenty black-robed men immediately turned into twenty rays of black light and shot out in a crisscross pattern.
The leader of the black-robed men flashed and pounced on the nearest ancient devil corpse. His body flashed with a black light and his whole body was like a wisp of green smoke, directly passing through a certain part of the corpse.
Puchi!
The body of the demon corpse swayed and instantly lost its balance. Then, its huge body crashed to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
For some unknown reason, one of its legs had been forcibly cut off by the black-robed man!
At this moment, a black shadow flashed beside the Ancient Devil Corpse that had just fallen to the ground. Another black-robed man appeared like a ghost. With a shake of his arms, a large number of pitch-black fists bombarded the demon corpse's neck at lightning speed.
Kacha!
The demon corpse's neck tilted to one side and the clear sound of bones breaking rang out. Its head and body were almost separated, only a bit of muscle and skin connecting them.
The Ancient Devil Corpse let out a series of hisses and screams. After struggling for a while, it finally stopped moving.
At the same time, the other black-robed men did the same. They either formed groups of two or three to deal with the Ancient Devil Corpses.
These black-robed men were extremely strong and their speed was as fast as lightning. It was as if they were the natural nemesis of the Ancient Devil Corpses with thick skin but slow movements. In just a dozen breaths, they had easily killed more than twenty demon corpses.
Although the originally powerful Ancient Devil Corpses continued to roar and wave their giant fists in front of these black shadows and spit out black beams of light from their mouths, they could not even touch the sleeves of these black-robed men.
The spell formation formed by the other eighty black-robed men was like a barrier in front of the entire Sky Phoenix City. The rest of the Liu Family army was unable to take even half a step forward.
This scene caused the expressions of the Liu Family army to greatly change. Their originally fierce attacks had unknowingly slowed down.
The grey-robed man of the Liu Family turned pale. He repeatedly performed techniques to force Long Yinchan to retreat. With a wave of his hand, a grey flame shot out from his hand and flew into the air.
"Retreat!"
With a low shout, he simultaneously raised his hands. A dense mass of black light shot out from his palms and entered the bodies of the Ancient Devil Corpses.
The Ancient Devil Corpses' movements came to an abrupt halt. Then, as if they were being controlled by someone, they ran away with large strides.
The rest of the Liu Family army surrounding them also retreated like a receding tide.
The Demon Stallion Guards chased them for more than ten miles. After killing more than ten Ancient Devil Corpses, they finally returned to Sky Phoenix City.
On top of the city wall, Long Yinchan stood facing the wind. He was instructing the soldiers in the city to strengthen the defense of the city wall.
At this moment, the twenty black-robed men wrapped their bodies in black robes again. They stood to the side as if they were puppets, not saying a word.
The golden-haired old man looked at the twenty black-robed men and felt a chill in his heart.
The HuangFu Family had ruled the Ten Thousand Demon Continent for hundreds of thousands of years. Their strength in the continent was indeed unfathomable.
…
At almost the same time, in a valley in Jin Province, this was a stronghold of the Liu Family.
However, at this moment, the camp was in a state of panic. Regardless of whether it was the sky or the ground, everything was densely packed with magic treasures and demonic lights. The sounds of explosions and the sounds of fighting rose and fell incessantly.
On one side of the battle were the grey-robed men of the Liu Family. On the other side, the clothes were mixed. Obviously, it was an alliance formed by various forces. Among them were the HuangFu Family, the Kong Xiang Family, the prestigious families, and some other families.
The two sides were either a few people or a group of people. They formed countless groups of different sizes and completely tangled together.
The Liu Family was clearly at a disadvantage in terms of numbers. They were completely suppressed by the HuangFu Family and the other allied forces. At this moment, the Liu Family's trump card, the Ancient Devil Corpse, was being entangled by more than ten dull-eyed demons in black robes.
These demons in black robes were the Demon Stallion Guards.
Although the Demon Stallion Guards were much fewer in number than the Ancient Devil Corpses, they were not at a disadvantage against these tall monsters. They could kill a Ancient Devil Corpse with a wave of their hands.
As time passed, the advantage of the allied forces became more and more obvious. The Liu Family army finally began to retreat.
…
As the HuangFu Family's Demon Stallion Guards secretly joined the battlefield, although there were not many of them, the Liu Family's originally invincible Ancient Devil Corpse Army suffered a heavy blow.
However, Liu Ming was currently unaware of this situation. He and Zhao Qianying were currently in Han Province.
In order to prevent others from discovering their tracks, he had already cast the Che Huan totem to conceal their auras. They headed in the direction of Vast Glacial City.
For some reason, the rebellion caused by the Liu Family didn't have much of an impact on Han Province. Perhaps it was because Han Province's climate was harsh and it had always been barren, so the Liu Family didn't send troops there.
Two days later, Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying silently arrived near Vast Glacial City. They were on a hillside outside Icewind Canyon, which was once the entrance to the Demonic Abyss.
Sweeping his gaze around, Liu Ming's expression immediately sank.
It was indeed as Huangfu Yupo had said. It was shrouded in a thick white fog. However, the scale of the white fog was much larger than what Huangfu Yupo had described. The entire mountain range was enveloped in it.
"It looks like there is indeed a problem here," said Zhao Qianying.
Liu Ming nodded and didn't say a word. The purple light in his eyes grew brighter, condensing into two purple pillars of light that were several feet long. He looked deep into the fog.
When Zhao Qianying saw this, she didn't disturb him. She tilted her head as a layer of purple light appeared on her ear. She used Truth Listener's divine power and began listening.
Moments later, the purple light in Liu Ming's eyes dissipated as he frowned slightly.
"I just tried to listen. The white fog seems to be chaotic. There's no movement. Did you discover anything?" Zhao Qianying asked with a frown.
"It's not surprising that you can't hear anything. There's demonic aura circulating in the fog. Someone has cast some kind of divine power that can isolate it," said Liu Ming with a nod.
"Indeed, someone is up to no good. It should be those from the Liu family." Zhao Qianying's expression changed.
Liu Ming nodded. The demonic aura in the fog had a light grayish color. It was the same as the demonic aura of the Liu family members he had seen in the past. Based on this, he could basically conclude that the white fog was caused by the Liu family.
However, he couldn't be sure if someone was summoning the Demonic Corpse. Before he fully investigated the situation, it wasn't appropriate to inform Huangfu Yupo.
Zhao Qianying seemed to have thought of this as well as the two of them couldn't help but exchange looks.
"Since we're already here, we have to enter no matter what," said Liu Ming as he wore a thoughtful expression.
