Demon-Severing Cliff Falls

Before the uproar outside the camp had subsided, the sharp alarm bells ripped open the Third Medicine Camp.

[All Pill-Testing Array Disc simultaneously turn red.]

[The layers of Restrictions on Yi-Seven Alchemy Chamber were gradually lifted, and the military order patterns of the Demon-Suppressing Tower on the wall shone brightly.]

[Someone outside shouted.]

"The Demon-Severing Cliff has been destroyed!"

[You press the button on the Moon Palace Fire-Devouring Furnace; your first reaction is, "Impossible!"]

[The Demon-Severing Cliff connects to the Azure Dragon Domain's fortune; its cliffside array stretches for millions of miles. Even if the Myriad Demon Domain were to gather a million Demon Race, it would be impossible to break the array instantly.]

[My second reaction was still, impossible.]

[Song Fuan, the master of the Demon-Suppressing Tower, is a powerful cultivator in the Body Integration Realm, wielding the spiritual treasure Demon-Suppressing Tower and guarding the core of the formation.]

Even if Myriad Demon Domain Nine Great Demon Emperors Realm gathered together, the battle shouldn't be decided in an instant.

[When powerful beings clash, it's normal for them to fight for a hundred or two hundred years.]

[Options pop up.]

[A: Immediately rush out of the Alchemy Chamber to check the situation outside.]

[B: Taking advantage of the chaos, they emptied the medicinal herb warehouse and secretly ran away.]

[C: Submit a transfer application to the Military Orders Office, noting that "Demon-Severing Cliff represents a significant change in work environment."]

Lu Ping looked at B, his heart fluttering for half a second.

The medicinal herbs Medicine Camp do indeed contain many rare and precious items.

Emptying the warehouse at this time would yield huge profits.

The problem is that the Third Medicine Camp is still within the Demon-Suppressing Tower system.

In the chaos, taking advantage of a situation is called making a fortune if successful, and urgent handling by the War Oversight Office if it fails.

The blood of the deserters from the last time has already seeped into the great formation.

Lu Ping chose A.

[You chose A.]

[You stored the Moon Palace Fire-Devouring Furnace in your Dantian, put all your personal belongings into your Storage Ring, opened the Yi-Seven Alchemy Chamber, and released the Black-Feather Fire Crow.]

[The Black-Feather Fire Crow headed straight for the Demon-Severing Cliff.]

[The next moment, you saw the original location of the Demon-Suppressing Tower through the Fire Crow.]

[It's empty there.]

[The nine-story Demon-Suppressing Tower that used to hang in front of the formation at the direction of Demon-Severing Cliff is gone.]

The patterns on the cliff Array Patterns gradually faded away.

Chen Zhao also looked up at the Demon-Severing Cliff, and froze.

"Where is the Demon-Suppressing Tower?"

No one answered, and no one dared to answer.

[Outside the Medicine Camp, the first wave of routed soldiers rushed back.]

Their armor was still burning, and their waist badges were half-broken.

[A Golden Core cultivator, clutching a severed arm, rushed to the entrance of the Medicine Camp.]

"There's Demon Emperor!"

"Heavenly Demon Stage!"

"They didn't attack from the outside; they came from the inside!"

[Heavenly Demon Stage, equivalent to or higher than the Human Race Body Integration Realm.]

Chen Zhao raised his hand and sent out three Communication Talisman.

"[Send Military Orders Office]"

"The Third Medicine Camp requests a withdrawal."

[Through the Black-Feather Fire Crows, you can see from afar that a Heavenly Demon Stage being has indeed appeared inside the Demon-Severing Cliff.]

[That aura was somewhat weak, yet it was enough to rampage through the great formation.]

[The cultivators of the Void Refining Array-Guarding Office simultaneously formed an array.]

[Twelve Formation Flags stretched across the sky.]

[As the Formation Flags fell, a sliver of the remaining Array Patterns lit up again.]

[But the celestial Heavenly Demon raised its claw and tore at the first Formation Flag, causing it to shatter instantly.]

[Second page.]

[Third page.]

[Twelve Formation Flags exploded one after another.]

[The cultivator at the Void Refining stage stumbled out of the formation; his blood was swept away by Demon Qi as it fell into the air.]

A Demon-Severing Cliff.

[Countless Demon Race poured in.]

[You have begun to subtly spread the Spirit-Chaos Lure, becoming an invisible barrier for the Third Medicine Camp.]

[Soon, a group of Spirit Awakening Stage Demon Beasts rushed to the vicinity of the Third Battalion.]

[After charging forward for several dozen feet, their Demon Power began to surge in reverse.]

[Just as the azure-scaled wolf leaped into the air, all four of its limbs convulsed simultaneously, causing it to slam into the ground.]

[The Demon Beast behind couldn't stop their momentum, charging forward by stepping on its spine, causing it to fall one after another.]

A brief empty zone formed outside the Medicine Camp.

[The routed soldiers, seeing the empty supply depot, immediately rushed into the Medicine Camp.]

"Poison Master!"

[Someone was running and shouting.]

"The Medicine Camp has a poison master!"

The dozens of cultivators who had initially scattered actually reformed their defensive line along the empty space.

[A cultivator covered in blood was dragged into the Medicine Camp.]

[It's Zhuang Feili.]

He saw you standing behind the poisonous fog and froze.

[The low-profile Greenwood Sect Master, almost invisible on the Flying Boat, has now managed to create a narrow escape route for the Third Medicine Camp.]

Chen Zhao grabbed the Military Command Token.

"The Third Medicine Camp, retreat thirty li to the north."

"Lu Ping, stay with me to cover the rear."

[You didn't refute it.]

[Follow Chen Zhao, retreating while simultaneously throwing out Spirit-Winding Thread.]

[A Core Formation Late Stage Demon Cultivator charged in on a cloud of demonic energy, about to lock onto the Alchemist of the Medicine Camp with his Divine Sense, when his movements suddenly froze.]

Invisible threads climbed up his Demon Core's illusory form.

Chen Zhao slammed his palm down, smashing the Core Condensation Demon Cultivator into the poison barrier.

[The Demon Cultivator's bone armor shattered, Spirit-Winding Thread, entering his Sea of Consciousness through the crack.]

[The Demon Cultivator was about to flee when his movements suddenly slowed by a fraction of a second.]

[Chen Zhao's second palm strike lands.]

[Demon Cultivator at the Core Condensation Stage has perished.]

A brief cheer erupted from the cultivators in the Medicine Camp.

The cheers lasted only half a breath.

[The Array Patterns in the direction of Demon-Severing Cliff have completely extinguished.]

The Demon-Severing Cliff Formation has finally been completely broken.

[Demon Qi from the south is flowing back in.]

[A torrent of Demon Beasts at the Spirit Awakening Stage crashed into the array wall.]

[Demon Cultivator at the Core Condensation Stage charges forward on demonic clouds.]

[The distant war camp was engulfed by the first wave of attack.]

[Blood mist, broken armor, and fragments of Formation Flags swirled into the air.]

Just when everyone thought that Demon-Severing Cliff was completely finished, the Void was suddenly torn open by a hand.

[Song Fuan the Demon-Suppressing Tower in his hands, stepped out from the crack.]

His robes were torn, and golden blood dripped from his cuffs.

[The nine-story Demon-Suppressing Tower had shrunk to the size of a palm, its structure covered in cracks, and three of its bronze bells were broken.]

[But as he stood there, the broken Array Patterns lit up again.]

[The moment Song Fuan appeared, the Nine Great Demon Emperors materialized from the Void.]

They were all breathing heavily.

[One of the Demon Emperors had half of its shoulder collapsed, and the broken shadow of the bronze bell from the Demon-Suppressing Tower was still pressed against the wound.]

[The other Demon Emperor had a hole in his chest; there was no blood inside, only rolling demonic flames.]

[They had just survived a horrific battle, one that outsiders could not witness.]

[Only Pei Xuanlü, the supervisor of the Supreme Unity Sect, was nowhere to be found.]

[The supervising commander is not present.]

The Demon-Suppressing Tower was damaged.

[A new Heavenly Demon has appeared inside the grand formation of the Demon-Severing Cliff.]

All the signs clearly pointed to a "conspiracy."

[The Red Heaven Demon Emperor stood atop the demonic clouds, looking down upon the 100,000 guards below.]

"The Venerable Fu'an."

"Is it really worth sacrificing one's very essence and breaking free from the Time-Light Prison for these ants?"

[Upon hearing this, many Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and even Nascent Soul cultivators didn't dare to raise their heads.]

[Ants.]

These two words are never uncommon in the world of cultivation.

[The highest level of Central Region, the Central Region depends on the Border Regions, and the Border Regions depend on Rogue Cultivators.]

[Song Fuan glanced down at the 100,000-strong garrison below.]

He raised his hand and lifted the shattered Demon-Suppressing Tower back up.

"Cultivation in this world is inherently for those at the bottom, built up one Spirit Stone a time."

"Where does this talk of ants come from?"

"It's just cause and effect, nothing more."

[As Song Fuan finished speaking, the Demon-Suppressing Tower in his palm suddenly shrank into a dark blue-green seal.]

[In the next instant, he took a step forward.]

He appeared directly in front of the celestial Heavenly Demon inside the Demon-Severing Cliff.

[That celestial Heavenly Demon was rampaging through the Demon-Severing Cliff, practically unleashing its full power; even the Void Refining Array-Guarding Office couldn't stop it.]

[But Song Fuan only threw one punch.]

[Fist falls.]

The Heavenly Demon's chest was pierced.

[Rolling demonic flames spewed from the breach, melting the Array Patterns on the cliff face inch by inch.]

[The Heavenly Demon looked down at her empty chest.]

"Song Fuan, do you dare kill me?"

Song Fuan did not answer.

[The second punch lands.]

[The Heavenly Demon's body shattered instantly, not a drop of flesh or blood fell, only countless Bloodline Mark runes burned to ashes, with a wisp of primordial true fire hanging in the center.]

That wisp of true fire did not dissipate.

[It hovered in mid-air, barely the size of a bean, yet it suppressed all the surrounding Demon Qi.]

The Nine Great Demon Emperors paused for a moment simultaneously.

[The Red Heaven Demon Emperor suddenly raised his hand.]

"The Crow Demon Emperor!"

[The Myriad Demon Domain has only Nine Great Demon Emperors.]

[This is the inherent understanding of Human Race cultivators for thousands of years.]

[Now, inside the Demon-Severing Cliff, a tenth Demon Emperor has suddenly appeared.]

[Moreover, he was smashed to pieces by Song Fuan's two punches.]

On the battlefield, countless cultivators forgot even their fear; only one question remained in their minds.

Where did the Tenth Demon Emperor come from?

[The Black-Feather Fire Crow, which had been observing from afar, suddenly transformed into a streak of black and red fire, rushing straight towards the golden-red true flame.]

[You were greatly alarmed; the Black-Feather Fire Crow's movements were not under your control.]

[Options pop up.]

[A: Immediately recall the Black-Feather Fire Crow and let it quietly become a Fire Crow Seed in your Dantian.]

[B: Release control of the Black-Feather Fire Crow, let it act on instinct, and gamble on fortuitous opportunity.]

[C: Apply to Song Fuan for reimbursement of real fire expenses, noting "Employee Pet Growth Subsidy"].]
