The night passed, and the morning arrived. The first beam of sunlight poured down from the dark clouds formed by the beast qi, bringing a ray of light to the battlefield.
"Buddy, we should go rest. You and I both know about the consequence of taking too many pellets."
"You are right. The zhen qi quality is dropping. Let's go back to the Gold Tripod City and rest for a bit."
Warriors were not like beasts. Without the advantage of zhen qi, their attacking power would drop drastically. But even without the beast qi, the beasts still had their powerful bodies. Therefore, when the warriors reached their limit, they would immediately go back to the Gold Tripod City to train their zhen qi, trying to recover their attacking power. The rest of the warriors who could still fight would continue to fight and wait for their turn.
Because of this, the warriors in the Gold Tripod City were at a disadvantage, and the number of casualties had increased drastically.
"It is time for us to attack." The Fire Spirit stood up.
The Black Crow Man performed his Black Crow Great Art, and a pair of pitch black wings grew out of his back. He nodded and said, "The beasts' endurance is way beyond human warriors. If we do not attack now, the rest of the warriors will not be able to survive. But, we cannot kill them all.
After communicating with each other, all of the Astral Reaching Realm warriors started to attack.
"Death Tornado!"
It was exactly the same movement as Wu Liangyu, but it was performed by the Black Crow Man. However, it was ten times more powerful. With one attack, at least thousands of beasts had been torn apart, and a huge area had been flattened. It was as easy as eating and drinking.
"Flowing Fire Blade!"
The Fire Spirit's power was not any weaker than the Black Crow Man's. While he was walking, countless flame-like giant light blades were shot out, killing the beasts as if they were grass. That kind of casual and elegant artistic conception had shocked all the warriors who were still fighting on the battlefield.
"This is the power of an Astral Reaching Realm warrior? There is no way to fight back. No wonder Thunder Freer said that even if I trained my sword intent to completion and am at peak level Late Clasping Yuan Realm, I would only be able to run away, and would not be able to fight back. " After one day and one night, Ye Chen had not gone back to the city to rest at all. He had been fighting until now. For him, this kind of opportunity was hard to come by. If he did not try, he would definitely regret it. Seeing the Astral Reaching Realm warriors attacking, he did not know where the energy came from. His mental state had recovered to its peak, and there was even a sign of a breakthrough.
"Haha, why are you saving your zhen yuan? Just use a few big moves and it'll be over. "
In the sky, an Astral Reaching Realm warrior flew to an extremely high place. He slowly raised both of his hands, as if he was holding something. All of a sudden, a thunder ball shining with silver lightning appeared between his two hands. The thunder ball expanded in the wind, and within a breath's time, it had expanded to dozens of meters in size. At first glance, one would think that he was holding a silver sun shining with lightning.
"Thunder Explosion!"
He roared and swung the huge ball of lightning down.
Rumble!
It was as if the end of the world had arrived. Miles in the distance turned into a world of thunder and lightning. Right after that, an endless bright light blossomed, lighting up thousands of miles in radius. All the martial artists below the Astral Reaching Realm hurried to close their eyes. They suspected that if they looked directly at that sun-like light, they would go blind.
When he opened his eyes again, the world of thunder and lightning had disappeared. The remaining electric currents in the air were still crackling and roaming, and the demonic beasts that were trapped in it could not even be seen. Even the ground tens of meters deep had turned into nothingness.
"So powerful! He is at least at the Late Astral Reaching Realm, and he managed to kill tens of thousands of beasts with one attack." A lot of people were shocked.
The Black Crow Man and the Fire Spirit looked at each other.
"Let's see who can kill more beasts with one attack. No burning of zhen yuan."
"Huh! I have trained the fire element zhen Qi. My attacking range is definitely above yours."
"Then let's compete!"
The horrifying battlefield was obviously a place for Astral Reaching Realm warriors to play games. They started to compete with each other, throwing out their ace attacks one after another. Every time, they could kill thousands or even tens of thousands of beasts. With Ye Chen's current cultivation, he could only kill about a hundred beasts with one attack.
But of course, the attacking power could not be measured by the attacking range. For example, Ye Chen's biggest attacking range was the Tornado, which could kill almost a hundred beasts with one attack. However, the Lone Peak Kill could only kill a couple of beasts, or even one beast. But it was still not as powerful as the Lone Peak Kill. On the contrary, the Tornado was nowhere as powerful as the Lone Peak Kill. The two could not be compared at all.
Even so, facing an Astral Reaching Realm warrior with a cultivation of peak-level Late Clasping Yuan Realm, it was not hard to imagine the disadvantage of facing an Astral Reaching Realm warrior. After all, the opponent would be able to cover a huge area with only one attack. How could one escape? Even if one managed to escape, one would be exhausted and unable to do anything.
Reaching this level, Ye Chen had to think about how to deal with Astral Reaching Realm warriors.
In less than fifteen minutes, the number of beasts on the battlefield had been reduced by more than half. The remaining beasts were still a couple of times more than the warriors from the Gold Tripod City.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Before, when the Astral Reaching Realm warriors were showing off their power, everyone had taken a break, including Ye Chen. Right now, the number of beasts had been reduced by more than half, which was definitely a good thing.
Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!
Killing a beast with one sword attack was obviously not that many compared to the other Clasping Yuan Realm warriors. However, Ye Chen's sword attack frequency was unimaginably high. With each breath, his body would travel two to three hundred meters among the beasts. In the process, he had thrown out sixty-seven sword attacks and killed sixty-seven beasts. The efficiency of killing beasts was almost as high as his wide-range sword attack, [Tornado Broken Clouds].
Standing on top of a massive beast's body, Ye Chen looked out. The outside of the Gold Tripod City had been dyed red. On the bloody ground, the number of beasts was less than a million, and the number of human warriors was around four hundred thousand. Adding half of the warriors in the city, it would be eight hundred thousand.
Out of the two million warriors, only eight hundred thousand were left. The death toll had reached a shocking one million two hundred thousand, which was definitely a terrifying number.
"Without reaching the Clasping Yuan Realm, it would be like dancing on the edge of a knife in this kind of large-scale battlefield. The good thing is that the Gold Tripod City is only this big, so the beasts would not be able to squeeze in all the way. If it were on the grassland without any obstacles, twenty million beasts could easily kill two million warriors."
Waving his sword and killing a beast that jumped on him, Ye Chen continued to kill.
"Alright, I have been suppressing it all this time. It is time for you to taste the real power of the Lone Peak Kill."
Shaking his wrist, Ye Chen stabbed his sword into the neck of the bull-type beast.
Pooh!
Dozens of beasts in a straight line had all been pierced through by the sword qi, which was as fast as lightning.
"Although this attack of mine is a close combat sword attack, it does not mean that it can only kill one target. With the help of the Lone Peak Kill, the sword qi has a horrifying piercing power." Before, Ye Chen did not use it because he wanted to try it out. Plus, there were too many beasts, so it would be better to control the consumption of zhen Qi. But now that the number of beasts had decreased drastically, Ye Chen did not have to worry so much anymore. He could just kill as much as he wanted.
As the number of beasts decreased, the dark clouds formed by the beast qi in the sky had been dispersed. The golden sunlight shone down, brightening up the whole place.
Ahhh!
In the distance, in the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood, a lot of human-shaped blood mist suddenly screamed. As soon as the sunlight shone on them, they were burned into smoke.
"What is that?"
Including Ye Chen, a lot of people could not believe their eyes.
On the city wall, the Fire Spirit forced a smile, "Indeed, there will be blood demons in a big battle."
The Black Crow Man said, "It is very hard to form a blood demon. It cannot be directly hit by the sunlight, and it needs to have enough blood and hatred. These blood demons are all low-rank blood demons, nothing to worry about."
Just as the voice of the Black Crow Taoist Priest faded away, cyan smoke rose from the lake-like blood water. After that, a blood shadow couldn't help but rush out of the water, and rushed towards the shadowy corner. This blood shadow was shone upon by the sunlight, and smoke rose from its body as well. However, it was different from the human-shaped blood mist. Its body didn't dissipate all of a sudden. Instead, it slowly melted like a snowman under the scorching sun.
"Even a low-rank blood demon has formed!" Some of the Astral Reaching Realm warriors were a bit surprised.
"Look! There is even a mid-rank blood demon!"
One of them reached out his hand and pointed at the dark corner of the corpse mountain. There was also a blood shadow there. It looked like a human, but the facial features were a bit blurry.
Shoo!
A rank 5 beast was passing by, but it did not have the time to escape before it was jumped on by the blood shadow. Something shocking happened. This blood shadow somehow managed to drill into the beast's body without any hindrance. After a while, it rushed out. The blood light on its body was even brighter, and its facial features seemed to be a bit clearer. Meanwhile, the rank 5 beast behind it had turned into a dried up corpse.
"Such an evil existence! No wonder I saw a lot of human dried up corpses at night. I thought they were killed by the beasts that specialized in sucking human blood."
Ye Chen frowned.
As the dark clouds of beast Qi dissipated, more blood shadows appeared, attacking towards the beasts. As for the human warriors, they were too far away from there. Plus, they were under the sunlight, so none of the blood shadows attacked.
"If I am not mistaken, these blood demons have been formed since yesterday. They increase their cultivation by swallowing the blood of beasts and humans. Luckily, there are no high-rank blood demons. Otherwise, even with all of our power, we might not be able to stop them. Let's kill them now! Just in case it causes more trouble. " The Fire Spirit flashed his body and arrived in the middle of the battlefield within a couple of breaths. He threw out a casual attack. That flame-like blade Qi seemed to be the nemesis of the blood demons. Once it touched them, they would be burned into nothingness.
"Too careless!"
The Black Crow Man shook his head and flew into the battlefield as well.
The other Astral Reaching Realm warriors started to attack as well. They all looked very serious, worried about the appearance of a high-rank blood demon. Although it was not that easy to form a high-rank blood demon, there were too many top rank beasts and warriors on the battlefield. As long as they swallowed enough blood of the same rank, they might be able to create a high-rank blood demon.
As the Astral Reaching Realm warriors attacked, they also took care of the beasts. They did not want to leave any blood for the blood demons to grow stronger.
Ye Chen and the rest of the warriors went back to the wall of the Gold Tripod City and watched the scene down below.
Boom!
The Fire Spirit had the most destructive power for the blood demons. With one attack, none of the blood demons could escape. Even after all the blood demons had been killed, the Astral Reaching Realm warriors still did not let their guard down. They started to use their zhen yuan to evaporate the blood. As for the smaller ones, they did not care about it, since the formation of the blood demons would require a huge amount of blood and hatred. Under the sunlight, the smaller ones would dry up very quickly.
What everyone did not know was that there was also a huge amount of blood water in the deep underground. It was the blood that had seeped down from above, forming an underground blood river. Inside the blood river, a blood shadow appeared slowly. The face was very clear, just like a real person. He had a nasty smile on his face, and the expression in his eyes was as evil as one could imagine. It was like a combination of evil.
