Besieging the Purple Mansion Demon Python
"At this point, I have no better options."
He said with a solemn expression, "I can only have Yang Yuanhe mobilize the Foundation Establishment cultivators of Spirit Commandery and do everything in my power to send troops to support you."
"Alright then, I'll try my best to deal with and hold off these four Purple Mansion Demon Beast outside Yuyang Market."
"You few from Feng Commandery, go back and join forces with Yuanhe to try and support Fengyang Market, and see if you can hold off the Purple-Spotted Wolf King."
After hearing what Elder Yang had said, many people showed expressions of distress.
For the cultivators of Yu Commandery, the sudden removal of five Foundation Establishment and one Purple Mansion will likely make the upcoming battles extremely difficult.
As for the cultivators of Feng Commandery, even if Ancestor Xu Daoyuan returned, they might not be able to withstand the attack of the Purple-Spotted Wolf King, a Purple Mansion Late Stage, leading tens of thousands of low-level Demon Beast.
When the Purple-Spotted Wolf King joined forces with several Mid-Purple Mansion realm Demon Beast, it was even able to barely contend with Jiang Linglong, demonstrating its formidable strength. Moreover, it also commanded two Early Purple Mansion realm Demon Beast.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Chen Nianzhi exchanged a glance with the Old Clan Leader and finally spoke.
"Seniors, if we defeat the four Purple Mansion Demon Beast outside the city first, and then concentrate our forces to support Feng Commandery, we might be able to break the current situation."
"Defeat the Purple Mansion Demon Beast outside the city?"
Xu Daoyuan showed a hint of joy, but quickly frowned and shook his head, saying, "If I were confident in defeating him, why would I be frowning like this?"
Chen Nianzhi and the Old Clan Leader exchanged a glance, and the Old Clan Leader stepped forward and spoke.
"Senior, if my nephew and I join forces, we have a good chance of fighting a Demon Beast at the Early Purple Mansion realm."
"Moreover, we also possess a treasure ship."
As Chen Nianzhi spoke, he took out the Seven-Star Demon-Slaying Ark.
"This ship..." Ancestor Yang's eyes lit up, and he said with some surprise, "I didn't expect that the Thunder Roc would die at your hands."
As he spoke, he stroked his beard, nodded, and said with a smile, "Judging from the array patterns on this treasure ship, it should be the Seven-Star Demon-Slaying Sword Formation."
"This formation was created by Patriarch Jiang. I have personally witnessed its power. Once activated, it is comparable to Mid-Purple Mansion realm cultivator fully unleashing their Divine Ability."
"If used in a critical moment, it might have a miraculous effect of defeating the enemy with a single blow."
As Yang Laozu spoke, he looked at Chen Nianzhi with delighted surprise.
If the two members of the Chen Clan can truly fight against a Purple Mansion Demon Beast, and with the existence of this treasure ship, perhaps they can really break the stalemate.
Thinking of this, he excitedly stroked his long beard and said, "Since we have such a trump card, then we can indeed try to fight."
"Excellent, excellent!" Xu Daoyuan was even more excited and said with great gratitude, "If this battle is successful, your Chen Clan will be greatly rewarded."
Having decided to go into battle, everyone quickly made a decision.
In order to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop, the major Lineage once again drew strength from Yu Commandery, and all the Foundation Establishment cultivators that the Lineage could mobilize were transferred to Yuyang Market.
In just three days, Yuyang Market gained another seven or eight Foundation Establishment cultivators, Chen Clan also transferred Chen Xianling, who was guarding Darksteel Mountain, and Chen Nianchuan, who was guarding Qingyuan Mountain.
After this wave of reinforcements, the number of Foundation Establishment cultivators in Yuyang Market has reached thirty-three.
Early that morning, the cultivators in the Marketplace were already preparing to take the initiative to fight, and the Foundation Establishment cultivators had begun distributing array flags to the Qi Refining Cultivator.
Most of these battle flags were distributed by Jiang Linglong. Chen Nianzhi had also used these flags in the Battle of Demon Wolf Mountain in the past, making them a very rare and powerful weapon on the battlefield.
Meanwhile, Chen Nianzhi had been preparing for some time, with the Old Clan Leader, Chen Xianling, Chen Nianchuan, and eight other Foundation Establishment cultivators standing beside him.
These Foundation Establishment cultivators will travel with him on the Seven-Star Demon-Slaying Ark. The ship has a protective formation that not only allows them to attack their enemies without restraint, but also requires them to activate the Seven-Star Demon-Slaying Sword Formation at crucial moments.
In addition, there were eighteen Chen Clan cultivators at the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining. They brought the Scorching Sun Divine Flame Formation. When the full power of this formation is activated, its combat strength is almost equivalent to two or three Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivators, making it a rare peak combat force.
After waiting for another half hour, Patriarch Yang was in the distance, looked at everyone and nodded.
"Now that everything is ready, let's get started."
"..."
At Elder Yang's command, the Human Race in the Marketplace activated their battle flags and charged out relentlessly.
Seeing the Human Race army charge out, the Thunder Roc immediately sneered and drove its low-level Demon Beast into battle.
Having left the Heavenly Sword Demon-Slaying Formation of Yuyang Market, the number of Demon Race, whether in the Purple Mansion or Qi Refining stages, far exceeded that of Human Race, so they were naturally not afraid of battle.
A great war was about to break out. The Human Race and the Demon Race clashed, immediately triggering a decisive battle.
Ancestor Yang took the lead and single-handedly stopped the Thunder Roc and the Six-Winged Golden Butterfly, showing no signs of being at a disadvantage.
Xu Daoyuan followed closely behind, summoning his Life-Bound Dharma Artifact, the Void-Refining Wu-Earth Cauldron, which immediately blocked the Purple Mansion Demon Beast, the Purple Mansion Blueflame Fox.
The last Ice Python still wanted to attack Xu Daoyuan, Old Clan Leader took to the air and directly unleashed his Life-Bound Dharma Artifact, the Scarlet Flame Spirit Blade, to slash at it.
The Old Clan Leader's True Essence essence is now 80% stronger than that of a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Grand Completion, almost reaching the level of half of the Purple Mansion.
This powerful True Essence propelled the Scarlet Flame Spirit Blade, unleashing a blade aura several dozen feet long, which was even capable of threatening the Purple Mansion Demon Beast.
Although the Ice Python was at the Second Layer of Purple Mansion realm, it wouldn't be foolish enough to take the attack with its bare body. A cold glint flashed in its eyes, and it roared, exhaling a blast of icy air.
The chill swept in all directions, instantly dimming the light of the Scarlet Flame Spirit Blade, and even the lingering power surged towards the Old Clan Leader.
"Such power from just an ordinary Law Technique."
"This Purple Mansion Demon Beast is truly powerful."
Upon first encountering a Purple Mansion Demon Beast at its peak, the Old Clan Leader couldn't help but slightly narrow his pupils.
He dared not delay and immediately raised his hand to summon the Three-Treasure Scarlet-Gold Flags. The banner enveloped the void and unleashed a torrent of Lihuo that instantly evaporated the overwhelming cold air.
Seeing that its Law Technique was blocked by the array flags, the Ice Python's eyes turned cold, and it opened its mouth and spat out seven white sword lights that slashed through the air.
Chen Nianzhi looked up and found that the seven sword lights were completely cold, they were Ice Immortal Swords forged from thousand-year-old mysterious ice, all of them were Tier 2 high-quality Law Artifact.
Although this set of immortal swords is not a third-tier Law Treasure, it is still incredibly powerful when activated by the Ice Python's Second Layer of Purple Mansion realm cultivation. Even seven Foundation Establishment cultivators would probably be killed in one strike.
At the critical moment, Chen Nianzhi did not stand idly by. He urged the Seven-Star Demon-Slaying Ark to bring everyone over, and raised his hand to unleash the Blazing Fire Return-to-Ruins Sword to slash at them.
The Blazing Fire Return-to-Ruins Sword was Chen Nianzhi's Life-Bound Immortal Sword, and Chen Nianzhi actually unleashed its full power. It unleashed a sword aura thirty feet long, knocking away all seven Ice Immortal Swords one by one and blocking the attack.
