Apart from defense, Xuanyuan Feihong also sent a message to the Duanmu and Sikong families, hoping that the three families could work together to eradicate the Devil Hall and get rid of the hidden danger for the martial artists of the Central Prefecture.
The current head of the Duanmu family, Duanmu Jinyun, said that he would not refuse Xuanyuan Feihong's message. However, he didn't send out any troops. Clearly, he wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.
The head of the Sikong family, Sikong Zhongfeng, was even more ruthless. He pretended that he didn't receive Xuanyuan Feihong's message and spent all day with his three thousand concubines, living a life of indulgence.
Xuanyuan Feihong didn't get a sincere reply from the Duanmu and Sikong families, but he wasn't too angry or disappointed. After all, he knew that the four great families of the Central Prefecture were competing against each other in the dark.
The reason why Xuanyuan Feihong was angry and disappointed was that the Duanmu and Sikong families didn't understand the great threat that the Devil Hall posed to the martial artists and commoners of the Central Prefecture. He was angry for justice and for the people of the world.
If the Xuanyuan Aristocrat Clan was defeated by the Devil Hall, the Devil Hall would become a hegemonic power in the Central Prefecture. If even the Xuanyuan Aristocrat Clan was defeated, how could the Duanmu Aristocrat Clan and Sikong Aristocrat Clan be at peace?
It was better to rely on oneself than on others.
Xuanyuan Feihong didn't send a second message to Duanmu Jinyun and Sikong Zhongfeng. Although his father, Zhangsun Hongyun, was poisoned, the Xuanyuan Family was still the number one family. He was confident that he could defeat the Devil Hall.
…
The Xuanyuan Family and the Devil Hall fought a long battle. The Zhangsun family also fought with the Li and Zhou families.
The Zhangsun family's first target was the Li family. The Zhou family, who had already formed an alliance, immediately sent their strongest martial artists to the Heaven Murder City to support the Li family.
That's right, the Zhou family's experts could use the teleportation formation to the Heaven Murder City. This was specially arranged by the Li and Zhou families.
The teleportation formation was very special. It could completely shut down the teleportation function and part of the teleportation route. Thus, the Li and Zhou families maintained the teleportation route between the Heaven Murder City and Boyi City.
Zhangsun Family's army was very powerful. They furiously attacked Heaven Murder City's energy barrier. In the end, under Zhangsun Wudi's powerful attack, the barrier shattered, and the two sides started fighting.
In the beginning, the Zhangsun Family had the upper hand. Later, the Li Family and the Zhou Family gradually turned the tables. But after Zhangsun Wudi joined the battle, the Li Family and the Zhou Family suddenly suffered heavy losses, with countless casualties.
Although Zhangsun Wudi only had one hand left, he was still a true Heavenly God. With just a wave of his hand, the experts of the Li family and the Zhou family could not even withstand a single blow. Countless of them were killed by him.
Li Shijie and Zhou Botong were infuriated as they watched their family's experts being slaughtered by Zhangsun Wudi.
However, they were no match for Zhangsun Wudi. Since persuasion and request for a truce were ineffective, they finally used their clan's most powerful trump card.
The strongest foundation of the Li family was actually an Old Ancestor who was at the end of his life. His cultivation had reached the peak of the ninth tier of the Demigod Realm, but he had not reached the Divine Realm. Logically speaking, he was not a match for Zhangsun Wudi at all.
However —
This Old Ancestor of the Li Family was going to die anyway. In order to prevent the Li Family from being annihilated by the Zhangsun Family, he actually used a forbidden secret technique to ignite his life force in exchange for a terrifying power that was equivalent to the first tier of the Heavenly God Realm.
The Zhou Family's trump card was even more special. It was actually a powerful killing formation that was comparable to the Heavenly God Realm. This killing formation was extremely profound and had boundless power. It required five Demigod Realm experts to unleash the power of the Heavenly God Realm.
This killing formation was obtained by a deceased Old Ancestor of the Zhou Family by chance, and it was passed down to Zhou Botong's generation. It was rumored that it was created by a Supreme Heavenly God who was proficient in formations. Naturally, its power was extraordinary.
It was a pity that the Zhou Family, including Zhou Botong, only had a total of four Demigod Realm experts. It was impossible to gather five of them. Helpless, one of the formation cores was replaced by a high-grade God Bestow Warrior at the peak of the third tier of the Divine Dragon Realm.
The killing formation couldn't be learned to set up in a short period of time. It required the person who set up the formation to use their own strength to draw out profound and complicated formation patterns in the air. Then, the energy formation patterns drawn by the five of them would be connected to form a complete killing formation.
After the killing formation was activated, it could last for one hour. The five experts in the formation had strength that was comparable to the first tier of the Heavenly God Realm. The five of them were positioned in a pentagon.
Zhou Botong was the strongest and was responsible for the main attack. The other three Demigod Realm experts would assist in the attack. The pseudo-Demigod Realm expert who made up the numbers didn't even need to attack. He just had to support the killing formation.
Zhangsun Wudi was facing the Old Ancestor of the Li Family and the Zhou Family's killing formation by himself. Especially when he only had his left hand to fight, it was obvious that he was at a disadvantage.
The final result of the battle was that Zhangsun Wudi killed the Old Ancestor of the Li Family, but he was injured by the killing formation. It was imaginable how terrifying the Zhou Family's killing formation was.
The killing formation created by a Supreme Heavenly God was indeed terrifying. Without the killing formation, a few Demigod Realm experts wouldn't be able to hurt a Heavenly God Realm expert. After all, Zhou Botong didn't have the Nirvana Fist or the God Splitting Hand.
Zhangsun Wudi, who was severely injured, didn't have the strength to fight the Zhou Family's killing formation again. He was afraid that the Li Family and the Zhou Family had other tricks up their sleeves. He was a paranoid person, so he finally retreated and withdrew his troops. He planned to come back and settle the score with the Li Family and the Zhou Family after he recovered.
Both sides suffered losses.
Although the Li Family and the Zhou Family had repelled the Zhangsun Family, both sides suffered losses. The two of them had suffered more losses. After all, the Zhangsun Family had killed many of their experts.
The Li Family and the Zhou Family's success in repelling the Zhangsun Family had shocked countless warriors in the Central Plains. A big family could defeat a big family?
This overturned the mindset of the warriors in the Central Plains. They naturally thought that the Zhangsun Family could easily defeat the Li Family and the Zhou Family. However, the truth was not like that. The Li Family and the Zhou Family had worked together to repel the Zhangsun Family.
Although the Zhangsun Family wasn't truly defeated, it was already very impressive for the Li Family and the Zhou Family to achieve such a result. It could be said that they had created a miracle in the Central Plains.
The Zhangsun Family and the Zhou Family had temporarily stopped fighting. However, the war between the Demonic Hall and the Xuanyuan Family was gradually escalating.
The Demonic Hall continuously sent more devil experts to besiege the Xuanyuan Royal City. It seemed like they wouldn't rest until the Xuanyuan Royal City was breached.
The number of devils attacking the Xuanyuan Royal City had increased from over a million to over three million. The number of Demigod Realm experts had increased from over a dozen to over thirty. Among them, about half of the Demigod Realm experts were at the fifth to eighth level of the Demigod Realm.
From this, it could be seen that the Demonic Hall was still very powerful. There were a lot of devils, and their overall combat strength was very strong.
At this moment, there was a huge mass of black-robed devils outside the Xuanyuan Royal City. The blood mist released by the devils merged together to form a red cloud. The devils were incomparably arrogant.
