The forest burned, thick smoke shooting into the sky. Flames dozens of meters high, whipped on by the wind, swept across dozens of square kilometers in an instant. The thousand-degree heat not only rapidly evaporated the moisture from the plants in the forest, which were about to enter autumn, drawing them into the blaze, but also swallowed the batch of Horned Devils that had charged into the woods in no time at all.
Even Level Nine Warriors had little ability to resist flames over a thousand degrees. Even Devil Race experts at the Battle Spirit level who had cultivated protective Battle Qi could not last long within such a fire.
Burning Horned Devils, clusters of fire constantly erupting from the ground—everything was exceedingly glaring to the Devil Race knights in the sky, and somewhat spoiled everyone's mood.
The Devil Race army was vast, numbering in the hundreds of millions, yet Spider Devils and Horned Devils of the Devil Race were constantly being swallowed by the flashes of fire on the ground without any chance to resist. Before they even reached the human race, casualties had already begun.
The Devil Race knight seated upon the skeletal throne had the ghostfire in his eyes flicker as he looked at the two human knights standing timidly before him. A low, icy voice came from behind his mask, stirring the air and making both human knights shudder involuntarily.
"What is going on?"
"This... this is the Blastflame Land Mine newly equipped by Great Xia..." One of the human knights stepped forward and spoke in a low voice.
The human knight who stepped forward was one of the core members of the Heaven-Piercing Sect listed on Great Xia's Office of the Chief Justice wanted roster. He was Gao Tianzhao's son, Gao Zeping, an Earth Knight.
