(It's the baby's birthday today. I went to take a family photo in the morning. Here's the first update.)
"Ancient Demons!"
"The Ancient Demons are attacking!"
At the 39th node of Battle Fortress No. 19, the ten top Saint Realm experts exclaimed as their expressions changed drastically.
The figures that appeared in front of him were the Ancient Demon Clan. They were flying through the void at an astonishing speed. Their terrifying aura was also condensed, like an extremely powerful destructive storm that was about to strike.
"Guard the node well." The female sword cultivator in azure-gold armor immediately said with a cold expression. At the same time, she immediately sent a message to the God's Son candidate from Dazzling Flame Divine Palace who had just left to rush over to guard the node.
This was because guarding the node was originally the responsibility of the 12 people. Usually, they could leave for a short period of time, but once the Ancient Demons attacked, they had to rush back to guard it as quickly as possible.
After sending the message, there was no response. The female sword cultivator's heart sank, and she immediately sent another message. At this time, the Ancient Demons had already approached, and their terrifying aura swept over like a storm.
Hundreds of them!
There were more than a hundred Ancient Demons that were attacking. Each Ancient Demon was five meters tall and covered with dark green snake scales. They looked rough and tough. The Ancient Demons had triangular heads that looked like wolves and snakes. Their eyes were green and cold, as if they did not have any emotions.
They had a pair of long arms with bulging veins. Their six claws were extremely sharp and seemed to be able to tear everything apart.
Among the hundreds of Ancient Demons, most of them had two arms. A small number of five-headed Ancient Demons had four arms.
"Four-armed Ancient Demon!" The female sword cultivator looked solemn.
A two-armed Ancient Demon was equivalent to a Saint Realm expert, while a four-armed Ancient Demon was equivalent to a True Saint Realm expert.
If it was a six-armed Ancient Demon, it was equivalent to a top True Saint Realm expert.
The Ancient Demon Clan was naturally powerful. Therefore, the strength of a four-armed Ancient Demon was also very terrifying. Although its level was equivalent to an ordinary True Saint Realm expert, in a one-on-one battle, an ordinary True Saint Realm expert was most likely not a match for a four-armed Ancient Demon.
As for the strength of a six-armed Ancient Demon, it was extremely terrifying.
Above the six-armed Ancient Demon, there were eight-armed Ancient Demons. They could be said to be invincible in the True Saint Realm. Only the experts on the Chaotic Real Board were qualified to compete with them.
The combined strength of the five-headed, four-armed Ancient Demon was also very terrifying. It was difficult to fight against it without the strength of a peak True Saint.
Although the female sword cultivator was at the True Saint Realm and was more powerful than the average True Saint Realm cultivator, there was still a gap between her and a peak True Saint Realm cultivator.
He sent a message to the battle fort asking for reinforcements, but he wasn't sure when they would arrive.
Before that, he could only fight.
Even if they died in battle, they had to protect the node. Otherwise, once the node was destroyed, these Ancient Demons might cross the node and invade the Demon-slaying Territory.
Fight to the death without retreating!
This was the attitude of the cultivators in the Demon-Slaying Weave toward the Ancient Demons. If they did not have such an attitude, they should not have come to the Demon-Slaying Weave.
Of course, the contribution of guarding the node wasn't small. Especially when the Ancient Demons invaded, the contribution was great, and it was enough to be exchanged for many treasures that were helpful to the improvement of one's strength, cultivation, and so on.
The path of cultivation was originally filled with danger. If one wanted to live comfortably, one could only stay in one place. It was difficult to improve one's cultivation. If one wanted to continue on the path of cultivation, one had to take risks and work hard to improve oneself to a higher level.
If one wanted to improve, one had to experience hardships and dangers, and there was the possibility of dying at any moment.
However, sometimes, death was also an opportunity.
"Defend the node with all your strength," the female sword cultivator said in the end because hundreds of Ancient Demons had already attacked.
Kill!
The azure-gold sword light burned with blazing flames and immediately slashed through the air, turning into a huge phoenix. Its entire body was covered with terrifying azure-colored flames. The flames were filled with specks of golden starlight, and it carried an astonishing power as it bombarded the Ancient Demons.
The five four-armed Ancient Demons howled one after another. Dark azure-colored light immediately spread out from their four arms and quickly condensed. Then, they blasted out, blasting toward the azure-gold flame phoenix as if they were shattering a vacuum.
Ten peak Saint Realm humans joined forces to set up a formation. When their strength was connected, their strength had increased significantly.
The formation set up by ten peak Saint Realm experts was comparable to an ordinary True Saint Realm expert.
Fortunately, the cultivator's task was to guard the node. However, this was also a very difficult task.
There were too few people, but fortunately, they had the help of the node's power.
The power emitted by the node covered a radius of 10,000 meters. The World's Yuan Qi within 10,000 meters was richer and purer than other places. It could allow the cultivators to recover their strength faster after consuming it, allowing them to fight for a longer time.
The second benefit was healing. Once injured, they could recover at a faster speed. They could even activate the Instant Healing Technique. Even if they were on the verge of death or seriously injured, they could be healed in a short breath. However, the Instant Healing Technique consumed a lot of energy. After using it once, they had to wait for more than a month before they could use it again. Otherwise, if they used it continuously, it would cause damage to the node.
The third benefit was the increase in combat strength. Once the increase in combat strength was activated, the strength of the cultivators in the node would increase by 50%. Of course, this increase was temporary and could only last for 15 minutes.
15 minutes was not long, but it was not short either.
There was also a limit to the use of the increase in combat strength. It could only be used once a day. Therefore, it was also very precious.
It was precisely because of the various benefits of the node that the cultivators could fight against the Ancient Demons in the node. They could guard the node without being breached.
Otherwise, the Ancient Demon Clan had many warriors, and they could easily reach the Saint Rudiment Realm. It was very terrifying.
The battle began. The Ancient Demons' battle was very fierce and fierce. They attacked without fear of death. The cultivators resisted with all their might, relying on the power emitted by the node.
The female sword cultivator was the strongest. She fought against five Ancient Demons by herself. With the help of the node's power, she constantly swung her sword and performed powerful techniques to block the attacks of the five four-armed Ancient Demons.
Ten top Saint Rudiment Realm experts formed a formation to block the attacks of nearly a hundred Two-armed Ancient Demons.
The charge of the Two-armed Ancient Demons was like a terrifying torrent that could destroy everything. As soon as they collided, all kinds of lights flickered. The terrifying impact did not stop. It turned into a torrent that surged in all directions. It poured out as if it was going to destroy everything.
The reinforcements had not arrived yet, and there was no reply. They could only rely on themselves to defend the node.
"Increase!" The female sword cultivator did not hesitate to activate the increase in combat strength. As the strongest existence in this node, she had the first authority to activate the node's ability.
The ten-meter-long prismatic crystal suddenly trembled. Strands of golden light burst out from it. In an instant, golden threads wrapped around the female sword cultivator's body. They quickly spread and turned into a golden light, as if she was wearing a golden robe. The ten top Saint Rudiment Realm experts were also wrapped in golden light, turning into golden robes.
Their battle prowess instantly increased by 50%.
For a powerhouse, a 50% increase in combat strength was very impressive and shocking. It was equivalent to using a Secret Technique.
Moreover, this kind of increase would not have any side effects on the cultivator. They would only return to their original strength when the duration was up. That was all.
A quarter of an hour!
The female sword cultivator knew that she only had a quarter of an hour. So, she had to make full use of this quarter of an hour to kill the five four-armed Ancient Demons. Only by killing all five four-armed Ancient Demons could she save herself from this predicament.
Erupt!
Erupting with all her strength, the azure-golden flames burning all over her body became more and more intense. A high-pitched cry rang out, and she immediately turned into a phantom. A phantom of a phoenix seemed to be about to soar into the sky.
Bloodline Activation!
At this moment, the female sword cultivator's strength soared to the level of a top True Saint.
"Nine True Phoenix Phantoms!"
A low roar reverberated in all directions, shaking the void. As she waved her sword, a sword light broke through the void and turned into nine azure-golden phoenix phantoms. In an instant, the phantoms surrounded the five four-armed Ancient Demons.
The five four-armed Ancient Demons roared and unleashed their full strength. The phantoms turned into flames and bombarded the phantoms, causing the nine phoenix phantoms to tremble.
However, they were unable to break through the blockade of the nine phoenix phantoms for a while.
The female sword cultivator looked solemn. Her tyrannical aura surged and gathered as if it was about to be condensed into one.
"True Phoenix Star Incineration!"
With a slash of her sword, flames burned incessantly and directly hit the five four-armed Ancient Demons. As the terrifying sword light raged, it immediately split open the extremely tyrannical body and astonishing scales of the four-armed Ancient Demons.
The bodies of the Ancient Demons were extremely tyrannical. They were even stronger than body cultivators of the same level. Their defensive power was extremely shocking. It was difficult to break through and even more difficult to kill.
However, the female sword cultivator's all-out attack had broken through the bodies of the four-armed Ancient Demons. It had broken through their defenses and truly injured their bodies.
The terrifying sword qi invaded the bodies of the four-armed Ancient Demons with terrifying flames that could burn stars. It continuously invaded the bodies of the four-armed Ancient Demons and burned wantonly.
The five-headed, four-armed Ancient Demons crazily erupted with all their strength, wanting to disperse the terrifying power that had invaded their bodies.
The second strike!
Slash!
The third strike!
Slash!
The fourth strike!
Slash!
The fifth strike!
Slash!
She unleashed five strikes in a row, unleashing all the strength in her body.
Under the full strength of the female sword cultivator, the five-headed, four-armed Ancient Demons' bodies were penetrated and burned like torches. They struggled and wailed in the flames.
The sixth strike!
This was the final burst. The sword pierced through the air and charged towards nearly a hundred two-armed Ancient Demons.
There was a huge difference in strength between the two-armed Ancient Demons and the four-armed Ancient Demons. It was difficult for them to resist this strike. Half of them were killed, and the remaining half were also affected. Their bodies burned with flames.
The phoenix phantom dissipated. The female sword cultivator's face was pale. She had exhausted all her strength. Although she could quickly recover in the node, it would still take some time.
Fortunately, she had finally killed this group of Ancient Demons.
However, in the next moment, an even more terrifying aura erupted. It was even colder and more intense than before.
It was a six-armed Ancient Demon. It was approaching at an astonishing speed, charging towards the node.
Despair!
In an instant, everyone, including the female sword cultivator, looked desperate because the six-armed Ancient Demon was far stronger than the four-armed Ancient Demon. The female sword cultivator had just unleashed all her strength and almost lost her combat power in a short period of time.
