At this moment, over at Tyrant Heaven City.
The battle at Tyrant Heaven City had already reached its white-hot stage.
Wave after wave, the demon beast army charged at the city walls without fear of death.
The various powers defending Tyrant Heaven City had suffered countless casualties.
Yet through sheer tenacity, they had repelled the demon beasts' attack after attack.
But the demon beasts seemed endless.
They kept pouring out of the Magical Beast Forest.
Human strength, however, was limited.
By now, more than half the demon beasts had climbed onto the walls, tearing and biting at the cultivators defending the city without restraint.
"Ah!"
"Damned demon beasts!"
"You dare bite me!"
"I'll fuck your immortal ancestors!"
A man screamed as a bird-type demon beast clamped its teeth onto his buttocks.
"Brother Yun Fei, hurry over and get this demon beast off my ass! It hurts like hell!"
The man was being battered into a frantic mess by the demon beasts before him and had no time to deal with the one on his body. He could only shout to his companion beside him.
Fortunately, it had bitten his ass.
If it bit its way up between his legs...
Hiss... the consequences were too horrible to imagine!
The cultivators on the city walls were forced back step by step. Their screams and the demon beasts' roars blended into one.
"Family Head, there are too many demon beasts on the walls! We can't hold them!"
"We should retreat into the city at once!"
"At least we can use the terrain inside the city to hold them off for a while."
Hearing this, Ye Wu cut down the Rank 5 Demon Beast before him with one slash.
Then he turned and looked across the city wall.
Countless demon beasts had already occupied more than half the city wall, while over half of the Ye Family disciples had been killed or wounded.
The remaining cultivators were also at the end of their rope, falling one after another.
Is Heaven truly going to destroy Tyrant Heaven City?
"Profound Moon City's sword cultivators are here! How dare these petty demon beasts invade Spirit Province?"
Just as Ye Wu was sinking into despair.
A thunderous voice came from the west.
He raised his head and looked westward.
Three thousand sword cultivators came streaking through the air with swords in hand!
The sword cultivators charged resolutely into the demon beast horde, their crisscrossing Sword Qi reaping demon beast after demon beast.
Sword Light flashed, and in an instant, thousands of demon beasts were cut down.
"Wonderful! Spirit Province's reinforcements are here!"
"We're saved, we're saved!"
"Everyone, heed my command! Counterattack!"
Ye Wu rose to his feet, raised the broken sword that had long since snapped in half, and shouted at the remaining cultivators on the city wall.
The surviving cultivators on the walls had originally lacked the strength to keep fighting, but when they saw the reinforcements arrive.
They unleashed their bodily potential once more. Together with the three thousand sword cultivators who had just arrived.
They drove the demon beasts off the city wall in one burst of momentum.
At the same time.
Countless tremendous booms rang out from behind Tyrant Heaven City.
The cultivators on the city walls looked back in terror.
They feared that high-rank demon beasts were attacking from the rear.
Could the ancestors have been defeated?
But once they saw who had come, their expressions immediately changed from terror to delight.
The major powers of Spirit Province had arrived.
Densely packed warships came rumbling in like a vast tide.
After soaring over Tyrant Heaven City.
They charged the warships with spirit stones and began indiscriminately bombarding the demon beasts below from the sky.
Violent laser cannons poured down in a mad barrage.
Before long, they blasted out a huge vacuum zone.
The demon beasts were blown up so badly that even their grandmothers would not recognize them.
In the end, after several high-rank demon beasts roared in fury, they temporarily retreated.
Leaving demon beast corpses scattered across the ground.
The charred demon beast corpses actually smelled rather fragrant.
The major powers aboard the warships also withdrew.
Do not pursue a desperate foe.
The demon beasts had already retreated deep into the Magical Beast Forest.
Warships were not suited to flying through that terrain.
"Thank you all for arriving in time. Otherwise, Tyrant Heaven City would have been trampled flat by these demon beasts."
Ye Wu, the Ye Family Head, wiped the blood from his face and thanked the major powers.
"No, no. We must thank Family Head Ye for leading his people in a bloody battle and holding back the demon beasts."
"That's right, that's right! Family Head Ye is truly a model hero of Spirit Province!"
Everyone looked at Ye Wu's current appearance.
Once the dignified head of an overlord-tier power, a figure who could stir the winds and clouds of an entire province.
Now, his hair was disheveled, his clothes were torn to rags by bites, and several large holes had been bitten into him by demon beasts.
His face was smeared with blood and sweat, and he held a broken sword in his hand.
"Family Head Ye, rest assured. Leave this place to us. An endless stream of Spirit Province cultivators is still on the way behind us."
"Though we may squabble among ourselves in ordinary times, when it comes to such major matters of right and wrong, we must stand united!"
On the battlefield elsewhere, the three Ye Family ancestors had held on for a long time and were about to reach their limit.
The three of them were fighting ten Rank 8 Demon Beasts.
The ten Rank 8 Demon Beasts before them were simply too terrifying.
Once demon beasts reached Rank 8, they became Demon Kings. They could take human form and possessed incomparably powerful strength.
Their hides were thick and their flesh tough, giving them terrifying defensive power. If not for the trio's agile movement techniques allowing them to evade the attacks, they would likely have been smashed into pulp by now.
"No, if this continues, we'll sooner or later be killed by these beasts."
"I wonder whether the reinforcements have arrived."
"If they don't come soon, this old man won't be able to hold on!"
Just then, one of the Ye Family ancestors let his guard down for an instant and was brutally sent flying by a Rank 8 savage bull.
"Second Brother!"
"Pfft!"
The Ye Family ancestor who had been blasted away spat out a mouthful of blood before slowly rising to his feet.
Just as the savage bull was about to attack again, a powerful wave of spiritual energy struck at it.
It was so frightened that it hurriedly dodged.
It might have been a little simple-minded, but it was not stupid. Its hide might have been thick and its flesh tough, but if it could dodge, who would want to take a beating?
Just then.
"Ha ha ha, these beasts only know how to bully the few with the many."
"Three Brother Yes, do not panic. We have arrived."
The ancestors of the three overlord-tier powers arrived in time.
"The reinforcements are here!"
The three ancestors looked up at the sky in delight.
After a prolonged bloody battle, their spiritual energy was nearly depleted.
Had the reinforcements arrived any later, no one would have been able to stop these Rank 8 Demon Beasts. The consequences...
There were six of them in total.
Three were in the middle stage of the Shattering Void Realm, two were in the late stage, and one was at the peak of the Shattering Void Realm.
Together with the Ye Family's three ancestors, there were nine Shattering Void Realm cultivators in all.
That was enough to face these ten Rank 8 Demon Beasts head-on.
"Damned humans!"
"This old bull will trample you all to death!"
"Once Lord Demon Saint frees up his hands, he'll flatten your Spirit Province!"
Another Demon Insect, with demon aura surging into the heavens, stepped forward and said.
"Hmph, you beast, your words are nothing but empty boasting!"
"Since when did insects dare to interrupt?"
"If you want to flatten Spirit Province, you'll first have to ask whether the sword in this old man's hand agrees."
With that, he took the lead and charged forward with his sword.
As for the Demon Saint this demon beast had mentioned, that was not something they needed to consider. The sacred lands and superior sects would naturally deal with it.
