To the southeast of Azure Sky Lake, the once thriving grasslands have become desolate.

The army led by the Guanghan Immortal finally clashed with the Devil Race army sent by the Blood Sha Devil Lord to provide reinforcements.

Boom!!

The dark, demonic light and the multicolored spiritual light collided in mid-air, and a powerful shockwave spread out in a spherical shape.

The earth cracked open, vegetation flew everywhere, and countless birds, beasts, insects, and fish that couldn't escape in time were turned into pools of blood and mud under this terrifying and unparalleled power.

Buzz!!

The allied Fleet deployed layers of Formation Shield, Devil Race army also harnessed their Demon Nests to form Defense System.

With attacks and defenses, back and forth, the war entered a fierce stage from the very beginning.

This time, however, it wasn't the Devil Race attacking; instead, the allied forces were in a proactive position, eager to quickly defeat the Devil Race army in front of them and return to support the main battlefield at Azure Sky Lake.

In the Central Demon Nest of the Devil Race, three Sage Manifestation Devil Race sat in a triangular formation.

A Devil Race resembling a rhinoceros, standing upright and towering five zhang tall, Sage Manifestation and opened its mouth with a rumbling sound, like a stone hammer striking a damp drumhead, giving a dull feeling.

"Gentlemen, with the Guanghan Immortal overseeing the allied forces, given her temperament, she'll likely exhaust our military strength in less than ten days before leading her celestial warriors in a Sage Manifestation attack. What should we do?"

Upon hearing this, the remaining two Demon Devil Race Sage Manifestation exchanged a glance, a dark look flashing in their eyes.

One of them, a humanoid demon with six eyes and a slender, dwarf-like Devil Race, spoke in a sinister Sage Manifestation, "The Guanghan Immortal is incredibly powerful, ranking among the top ten Sage Manifestation beings in the entire Lu Wu Realm. Several Sage Manifestation Devil Race have already died at her hands, and I don't want to follow in their footsteps."

"An Kuang is right. We are here to support Blood Sha Devil Lord and the others on the orders of Bloodfiend Devil Lord, but that does not mean we are courting death. Guanghan Immortal's army is fierce and we should not confront her head-on. It is better to deal with her slowly!" The last of the Sage Manifestation Devil Race members spoke.

This demon has three pairs of arms, a burly build, bulging muscles, and a layer of stone-gray rock on its skin, giving it an indestructible appearance. It is clearly Devil Race that excels in defense.

"But how do we explain this to Blood Sha Devil Lord? He ordered us to rush to the Azure Sky Lake to support Bloodfiend Devil Lord." The Rhino Demon frowned, his thick arms tapping the armrests, making a series of thumping sounds.

The humanoid Devil Race named An Kuang sneered and said disdainfully, "Hmph, Blood Sha Devil Lord and Bloodfiend Devil Lord are brothers, of course they side with each other. But we are all Sage Manifestation Devil Race, Blood Sha Devil Lord is only superior to us in status. If it weren't for the Demon God's support, what would he be?"

"Now that there is danger ahead, I think, according to the Human Race saying that a general in the field may disobey the emperor's orders, why don't we leave a portion of the army to cover the rear and retreat with the rest of the troops?"

"Then how will we explain this to the Blood Sha Devil Lord when we get back?" The Six-Armed Devil Race asked softly, shaking his shoulders.

"Tell me that we fought a great battle with the Guanghan Immortal, were defeated, and suffered heavy losses before retreating. Do you think the Blood Sha Devil Lord would kill us for this?" An Kuang with utter disdain.

Upon hearing this, the Rhino Devil Race and the Six-Armed Devil Race exchanged a glance.

The fact that An Kuang is so insistent on retreating must mean he has some unknown scheme behind it. However, what he says makes a lot of sense. The Guanghan Immortal is powerful and has the help of other Sage Manifestation. Our side is no match for her. If we continue to hesitate, we may very well lose everything here.

"Hmph, the Bloodfiend Devil Lord and his brother, they want to use my Direct Lineage army to pave the way for their future. They've got a good plan. We can't let them succeed. My Many-Eyed Devil Race still needs to retain enough strength to attack the Myriad Nations Region. How can we waste it all here?" An Kuang thought to himself.

Ultimately, the three demons decided, following An Kuang's idea, to leave a portion of the Devil Race army to cover their retreat, while the three of them would lead the main force to withdraw.

Three days later, the allied forces...

Inside the central Sixth Tier Flying Boat, the Guanghan Immortal, dressed in white, suddenly looked up, her beautiful eyes flickered, and a clear ray of light traversed a long distance, projecting onto the rear of the Devil Race army.

"Trying to run away? Should we let them go?..."

"If we release them, I can quickly return to my sect and join forces with my true self to defeat the Bloodfiend Devil Lord. However, this would mean missing the opportunity to annihilate three Sage Manifestation Devil Race and an army of millions of Devil Race, leaving hidden dangers for future wars."

"If we don't let them go and pursue them, it will certainly delay things and cause the allied forces to suffer greater losses. However, in the long run, the more Devil Race troops we annihilate, the more it will help the future war situation. As a high-ranking member of the Human Race, I cannot only look at the immediate benefits and ignore the future... Hmm, intercept them!"

In a flash, the Guanghan Immortal's Shen Yi turned cold, and she slammed her hand on the armrest, commanding, "Fengfu King, Yin Wumie my command!"

We are here!

One of the three kings of the Spirit Tribe, the short-statured Fengfu King, whose body is radiated with five-colored spiritual light.

And Yin Wumie, one of the Old Ancestors of the Blood Race, one of the four major clans, Yin Clan.

Both stepped forward at the same time, clasped their hands in a fist and bowed respectfully.

"I command you two to lead your respective cultivators at the Sage Manifestation, Spirit Transformation, and Nascent Soul stages, aboard Sixth Tier flying Law Treasures, to swiftly encircle the Devil Race army from both flanks! I will personally lead the remaining allied forces to charge forward from the front, crushing the Devil Race army before us in one fell swoop and slaying three Sage Manifestation Devil Race!"

"We obey!"

After bowing respectfully, Fengfu King and Yin Wumie withdrew, each gathering their subordinates to shed their bloated armies and then flanking from the left and right flanks on their flying Law Treasure.

Meanwhile, the allied forces remaining on the front lines intensified their attacks, advancing relentlessly despite casualties, and tenaciously entangled the Devil Race army that attempted to retreat.

"Damn it, the Guanghan Immortal has realized what's happening; she doesn't want us to leave." Inside the Demon Nest, An Kuang clenched his fists and pounded the armrests.

"The Blood Race and the Spirit Tribe have also surrounded us from both sides. There are a total of four Sage Manifestation, two Sixth Tier flying Law Treasures, and over four hundred Nascent Spirit Transformation and Nascent Soul Level warriors. They are all elites in the allied forces!" The Six-Armed Devil Race spoke quickly, and a Sha Qi was brewing in his expression.

"Unless we abandon 99% of our Devil Race army, we can't escape," the Rhino Devil Race said bitterly, spewing out two streams of black smoke from its nostrils.

"Then kill them. Our men are one of the foundations of our survival. Without them, the path to becoming Demon God will be much more difficult."

"Besides, if we flee in panic before even fighting, the Blood Sha Devil Lord will surely report to the Demon God and bring down punishment upon us." As the Six-Armed Devil Race spoke, a short, dark gray staff appeared on each of its six arms. This was its complete set of Devil Treasures, the Six Extremes Mountain-Splitting Staffs, which were extremely powerful.

"Since things have come to this, then let's see what the Guanghan Immortal has to offer." An Kuang sneered and took out his own Devil Treasure.

He had previously advocated for a retreat to preserve the strength of the Many-Eyed Devil Race. Now that the Guanghan Immortal had clearly intended to devour the entire Devil Race army, how could An Kuang possibly agree to that?
