A Sudden Assault on Demon Flame Valley, Crushing Them Like Rotten Wood
While Wang Chen and the other elders were waiting in the Outer Academy, the three elders who had been sent out to scout also quietly infiltrated the area around Demon Flame Valley.
With their Dou Zong and Dou Emperor strength, the ordinary members of Demon Flame Valley would naturally not be able to detect the three elders.
"I'll go explore the middle; one of you go to the left and the other to the right."
No need for too much detail, just make sure the Demon Flame Valley's sect leader and three Dou Emperor elders are at the Headquarters.
The Dou Zong elder immediately gave the order to make the arrangements.
"Clear."
The two Dou Emperor elders nodded and went to the left and right respectively.
Time flies, and most of the day has passed.
The three elders who had been investigating the Demon Flame Valley returned once again to their original hiding place.
"So, have you found out everything?"
It was Elder Dou Zong who spoke first and asked the question.
"It has been confirmed that the sect leader of Demon Flame Valley and the three Dou Emperor elders are all still within Demon Flame Valley."
One of the Dou Emperor elders answered.
Me too.
Another Dou Emperor elder followed closely behind and spoke up directly.
"The information I've gathered is about right, so I'll go back and inform Xiao Chen."
Having received confirmation from the two Dou Emperor elders, the Dou Zong elder made the arrangements directly.
After all, it wasn't about finding out specific information about Demon Flame Valley, but just about knowing the location of the sect leader and the three Dou Emperor elders, so it wouldn't take too much effort.
The Dou Zong Elder decided to stay behind with one Dou Emperor Elder, while the other elder went to the Jia Nan Academy to fetch people.
This will also prevent any unforeseen accidents from occurring during this period.
After making the arrangements, the Dou Emperor elder who had delivered the message immediately turned and left, quietly heading towards the Outer Academy of the Jia Nan Academy.
"It's been confirmed that the main forces of Demon Flame Valley are all within their Headquarters."
Upon returning to the Jia Nan Academy, the Dou Emperor Elder who delivered the message immediately rushed to the Dean's study in the Outer Academy to inform Wang Chen of the news.
Upon receiving this news, all the elders turned to look at Wang Chen.
After all, Wang Chen was the key figure in this operation.
Even the Great Elder Su Qian, who openly possessed the highest level of Dou Qi cultivation, obeyed Wang Chen's arrangements.
"In that case, let's set off."
Wang Chen didn't hesitate and immediately issued the order.
Wang Chen, along with seven Dou Zong and twelve Dou Emperor, secretly made their way towards the Demon Flame Valley.
As for Dean Hu Gan, he will continue to oversee the Outer Academy of the Jia Nan Academy.
After all, this commotion is bound to be huge.
Jia Nan Academy cannot function without a master in charge.
With our current strength, we're more than capable of sweeping through Demon Flame Valley.
One more Hu Gan is not enough, one less Hu Gan.
It would be better to let him continue to oversee Jia Nan Academy, ensuring that there won't be any problems from the rear during operations.
After traveling quietly for more than two hours, Wang Chen and his group met up with the elders who had been gathering intelligence.
"How is it? Nothing unexpected happened, right?"
The Great Elder Su Qian, stood up and asked.
"No problem. Everything is normal."
After receiving this answer, everyone looked at Wang Chen again.
"In that case, let's get started."
Our main strategy this time is speed. As long as we encounter any experts from Demon Flame Valley, we'll take them down without wasting any time.
"Try to keep the corpses of Dou Emperor and Dou Wang level individuals as intact as possible. I still have some use for them later."
Of course, this is on the premise of ensuring one's own safety.
Wang Chen gave a brief instruction and then issued the order to attack.
The elders each took their positions on the left and right, preventing the higher-ups of Demon Flame Valley from fleeing.
"I'll start!"
Wang Chen launched the first attack. A Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus, formed by the combined power of two Flame Spirit, drifted rapidly toward the mountain peak of Demon Flame Valley under Wang Chen's control.
The Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus exploded the moment it touched the summit of Demon Flame Valley.
"Boom!!!"
A violent roar echoed throughout the entire area.
That not-so-high mountain peak had already been shattered by Wang Chen's attack.
"Enemy attack!!!"
"Enemy attack!!!"
After the attack broke out, the remaining members of Demon Flame Valley also reacted.
The surviving members immediately screamed and sent signals to the higher-ups at the Headquarters.
In fact, even without these members relaying the signal, the higher-ups of Demon Flame Valley already knew the intelligence.
After all, Wang Chen's attack was incredibly powerful.
They were right inside the Headquarters, so it was impossible for them not to notice.
In an instant, the sect master, Peak Dou Huang, and three Dou Emperor elders rushed to the mountain gate.
"Who dares to cause trouble in Demon Flame Valley?!"
A deep, questioning voice came directly from the rear of Demon Flame Valley.
The person arrived before the voice.
When the Demon Flame Valley Sect Master and the three Dou Emperor Elders arrived at the mountain gate, their expressions were extremely solemn and gloomy.
"Su Qian, what do you mean?"
My Demon Flame Valley and your Jia Nan Academy will keep to ourselves and never interfere with each other.
"You've come here today, are you trying to oppose the entire Black-Corner Region?"
Although the Demon Flame Valley Sect Master was extremely shocked and surprised, he still spoke threateningly.
At the same time, he immediately used his Message-Transmitting Artifact to send a signal to the Founding Ancestor who was still in seclusion in the Demon Flame Valley secret realm.
This time, Jia Nan Academy came with great force; he had already spotted several Dou Emperors and Dou Zong experts.
This might mean that Jia Nan Academy isn't joking at all.
If we hadn't summoned the patriarch, today might have been the day Demon Flame Valley was destroyed.
As long as the patriarch of the Seven-Star Dou Zong can come out, their safety can still be guaranteed to a certain extent.
Although he is not yet Dou Zong, he still has good judgment.
Although the group from the Jia Nan Academy was extremely powerful, they still couldn't match the pressure the ancestor exerted on them.
"We need to buy some time now. Hopefully, the Ancestor can arrive soon."
Even the sect leader of Demon Flame Valley was uncertain.
After all, there are simply too many experts ahead.
He couldn't withstand a swarm of attackers.
That's why he resorted to questioning and intimidation, trying to buy himself more time.
However, Wang Chen had already made arrangements, and the elders of the Jia Nan Academy had no interest in answering.
They all remained silent and launched a fierce attack on the members of Demon Flame Valley.
It's about highlighting someone who's ruthless and doesn't talk much.
The four Dou Zong elders headed directly towards the Demon Flame Valley Sect Master and the three Dou Emperors.
The four were separated to prevent them from joining forces.
After all, Jia Nan Academy also has a lot of information about Demon Flame Valley.
Knowing that the three Dou Emperor elders of Demon Flame Valley possess the ability to Life-Transforming Fire, their combined strength would increase significantly.
Although with his Dou Zong level strength, he could have defeated them even if they joined forces.
But if it can be made easier, there's absolutely no need to make things more complicated.
The Demon Flame Valley Master and the three Dou Emperor elders never expected that the group from the Jia Nan Academy would be so lacking in martial ethics.
Without saying a word, they launched a fierce attack right from the start.
They aren't like Wang Chen, a gifted genius with a cheat code, who can easily fight opponents of higher levels.
They were simply unable to withstand the fierce attacks from the Jia Nan Academy's Dou Zong elders.
In less than half a minute, the three elders who were relatively weaker were killed one after another by the Dou Zong elder of the Jia Nan Academy.
This was because, as mentioned before, they wanted to preserve the body intact; otherwise, they could have resolved the situation much faster.
The Dou Zong elders of the Jia Nan Academy have all spent a considerable amount of time exploring the Peak Dou Huang, and their combat strength is unmatched by ordinary people.
Now that he has obtained Wang Chen's Sect-Breaking Pill and successfully broken through to the Dou Zong, his strength is quite formidable among Dou Zong of the same level.
Defeating an opponent at the Dou Emperor level shouldn't be too much of a problem.
While the four Dou Zong elders were attacking the four Dou Emperors of Mo Yan, the other elders of the Jia Nan Academy were not idle either.
They basically matched up against the Dou Wang and Dou Ling of Demon Flame Valley.
Now that the decision has been made to destroy Demon Flame Valley, everyone will naturally show no mercy.
They all fought their way up to their current strength through hard work and struggle; which of these elders from the Jia Nan Academy doesn't have a few lives on their hands?
Killing someone is not difficult.
Wang Chen remained in mid-air, waiting for the last stronghold of Demon Flame Valley —that Earth Demon Old Ghost at the Dou Zong level.
Su Qian and Sword Elder also did not make a move; they stayed to Wang Chen's left and right.
Although Wang Chen's combat strength, as previously revealed, was already no weaker than that of a typical Peak Dou Zong.
However, they still decided to lend a hand near Wang Chen.
The elders are now strong enough to wipe out the remaining forces of Demon Flame Valley.
These two elders, who were relatively stronger, naturally decided to join Wang Chen in dealing with the approaching Earth Demon Old Ghost.
Wang Chen didn't say much about it.
After all, this was a token of the two elders' goodwill, and Wang Chen couldn't refuse.
Just as Wang Chen was observing the battle situation in various places, a chilling attack suddenly appeared.
However, Wang Chen's perception ability was not to be underestimated.
Wang Chen sensed it the instant the chilling attack appeared.
The Eight Steps Chasing Cicadas erupted, and he immediately shifted his position.
"Laugh!!!"
The chilling attack missed its mark, striking the ground and leaving three deep claw marks.
Near the scratches, a chilling layer of ice had formed.
The Earth Demon Ancestor suddenly appeared above the mountain gate of Demon Flame Valley.
Seeing the current state of Demon Flame Valley, the Earth Demon Old Ghost was extremely shocked and astonished.
Jia Nan Academy actually sent so many experts at once to besiege Demon Flame Valley.
This was something he genuinely found hard to understand.
Although Demon Flame Valley and Jia Nan Academy are not exactly on good terms, they are clearly not in any major conflict right now.
They actually came directly to our door, intending to annihilate Demon Flame Valley.
This is absolutely ridiculous.
Of course, as the founding patriarch of Demon Flame Valley, although he was extremely shocked, he did not surrender without resistance.
His skills are quite impressive.
After arriving at the scene and taking a quick look, he realized that although the group from the Jia Nan Academy was incredibly powerful, there wasn't a single one who was particularly formidable.
The one with the highest Dou Qi cultivation is Su Qian, who is at the Three-Star Dou Zong.
Under these circumstances, he still has a certain chance of winning.
Therefore, he did not hesitate at all and immediately launched a sneak attack on Wang Chen.
After all, Wang Chen's location was far too conspicuous.
Moreover, he had two Dou Zong protectors by his side, which clearly indicated that he was an important figure.
If they can seriously injure Wang Chen, it will inevitably divert Su Qian and the others' attention.
At that time, his chances of winning would be even greater.
However, while the imagination is wonderful, the reality is harsh.
Their sure-fire sneak attack was actually dodged by Wang Chen.
"How is this possible!"
Seeing Wang Chen teleport and dodge, the Earth Demon Old Ghost was even more shocked.
Wang Chen had a pair of Battle Qi Wings on his back, and there were no spatial fluctuations emanating from him.
He could now directly use teleportation at the Dou Zong level, which he simply couldn't believe.
"Su Qian, what do you mean by this?!"
"Do you want to turn against all the forces in the Black-Corner Region?!"
Having failed in his sneak attack, the Earth Demon Old Ghost did not continue his attack. Instead, he righteously questioned Su Qian, the Great Elder of the Jia Nan Academy.
The current Earth Demon Old Ghost is not as arrogant and smug as he was in the original story.
After all, in the original story, their side had the upper hand.
The situation is now completely the opposite.
He had no help at all.
Even though he is Seven-Star Dou Zong, the strongest person in this region.
However, he couldn't hold his own against the seven Dou Zong and twelve Dou Emperor from the Jia Nan Academy.
If he were to risk his life, he would absolutely die.
At most, they could only hope to take away two or three elders from the Jia Nan Academy.
Under these circumstances, he naturally dared not be arrogant.
However, Wang Chen had no interest in wasting time talking to the Earth Demon Old Ghost. The Heavenly Demon Puppet Secret Technique was within reach, and he didn't want to waste any more time.
Without hesitation, Wang Chen launched an attack.
A surge of violent Dou Qi condensed in his palm, and then he activated the Eight Steps Chasing Cicadas's teleportation ability once more, instantly appearing directly in front of the Earth Demon Old Ghost.
A crimson palm print shot directly towards the Earth Demon Old Ghost.
The sudden attack startled the Earth Demon Old Ghost.
Most of his thoughts were focused on what was behind him and to his left and right.
After all, no one can launch a sneak attack from directly in front.
Instead, Wang Chen did the opposite, catching the Earth Demon Old Ghost off guard and directly attacking him.
Fortunately, the Earth Demon Old Ghost was, after all, Dou Zong master, and managed to launch a counterattack.
"Boom!!!"
The cold claw strike collided with Wang Chen's crimson palm print, instantly producing a violent booming sound.
The Earth Demon Old Ghost was sent flying by Wang Chen's attack, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
After all, Wang Chen's attack was all-out.
Not only did he use the Fire Cloud Palm, but it was also enhanced by the Flame Spirit, making its power extremely terrifying.
The Fire Cloud Palm technique had already been upgraded to the Heaven Tier after being enhanced.
Although Wang Chen's current strength is not enough to fully unleash the power of the Fire Cloud Palm.
However, even using only a portion of its power, it is already comparable to High-Level Earth Tier Dou Technique.
Such a sudden and terrifying attack naturally caused great losses to the Ice-attribute Dou Zong, the Earth Demon Old Ghost.
Seeing Wang Chen make his move, Great Elder Su Qian and Sword Elder also launched their own attacks without hesitation.
"Ha!!!"
Sword Elder Jian shouted, and the wind around him began to grow violent and sharp.
The space itself was cleaved open by Sword Elder Jian's terrifying Sword Intent.
"Clear Wind!"
With a low shout, a massive Sword Intent Clear Wind violently towards the flying Earth Demon Old Ghost.
It was described as Clear Wind, but it was extremely violent.
Upon seeing this attack, even the Earth Demon Old Ghost, Seven-Star Dou Zong, couldn't help but shrink his pupils.
He could only suppress his injuries and launch a counterattack.
As for using spatial teleportation to evade, that would be tantamount to suicide.
He's only Dou Zong, not Dou Sheng.
The surrounding space is now fluctuating due to Sword Elder's Sword Intent.
Using spatial teleportation in such a complex situation would be tantamount to suicide.
Even Wang Chen, who was considered overpowered, did not continue using the Eight Steps Chasing Cicadas to pursue after Sword Elder's attack.
An ordinary Dou Zong like the Earth Demon Old Ghost naturally wouldn't have the ability to use spatial teleportation under these circumstances.
"Boom!!!"
Faced with Sword Elder's terrifying Sword Intent Clear Wind, the Earth Demon Old Ghost fought desperately.
He directly channeled the raging Dou Qi within his body and launched a fierce cross claw attack with both hands in front of him.
Two cold, claw-shaped attacks rushed forward.
The Sword Intent of Sword Elder clashed fiercely with the Clear Wind, unleashing a terrifying roar.
At that moment, Great Elder Su Qian's attack arrived.
The old forces have been exhausted, and new forces have yet to emerge.
The Earth Demon Old Ghost had no time to parry before being hit by Great Elder Su Qian's attack.
"Boom!!!"
The already injured Earth Demon Old Ghost was directly blasted to the ground by Great Elder Su Qian's attack.
The ground instantly deformed, cracked in all directions, and created a huge crater.
"Flame Dragon!!!"
At that very moment, Wang Chen also launched his pursuit.
He directly used the Spirit Fusion Technique of his cultivation method, causing the power of the Flood Dragon Flame Spirit to soar to the peak of the Tier 7.
Then it attacked directly at the Earth Demon Old Ghost had crashed to the ground.
Wang Chen really enjoys kicking someone when they're down.
It will absolutely not remain quietly in mid-air, giving the Earth Demon Old Ghost time to recover.
The Earth Demon Old Ghost's strength was already comparable to this Tier 7 Flame Spirit, and he himself had been injured by Wang Chen and the other two working together.
Faced with Wang Chen's relentless and powerful attack, there was no time to dodge or block.
"Boom!!!"
As expected, the Earth Demon Old Ghost was pierced through the chest by the Flame Spirit, taking his life.
"Receive!"
At the same time, Wang Chen's Flame Spirit forcibly pulled out the soul of the Earth Demon Old Ghost and put it into Jade Bottle.
Although the Earth Demon Ancestor's soul strength was not as great as that of those orthodox Alchemist.
However, even a soul at the Dou Zong level still has some use.
This is an essential material for crafting the Heavenly Demon Puppet.
With the death of the Earth Demon Old Ghost, Demon Flame Valley was even less able to resist.
When the high-ranking members of Demon Flame Valley were killed, many people wanted to flee immediately.
However, the appearance of the Earth Demon Old Ghost gave hope to the people of Demon Flame Valley.
To everyone's surprise, this Earth Demon Old Ghost was so powerful when he first appeared, but he died in just a few moves.
The members of Demon Flame Valley naturally could not continue to resist and quickly fled in all directions.
Unfortunately, this is simply unrealistic.
All the experts above the Da Dou Shi have been killed.
Some insignificant Dou Shi) level fighters naturally couldn't possibly escape with their lives from a group of Dou Emperor) and Dou Zong).
With just a few area-of-effect attacks, the remaining small fry were basically wiped out.
After all, this is the Black-Corner Region; kindness shouldn't even exist here.
Once a feud is formed, it must be eradicated completely.
Otherwise, the subsequent training trips of the Jia Nan Academy students could become extremely dangerous.
They would never allow a small act of kindness to put their own people in greater danger.
