Of the dozen or so demon soldiers left after undergoing demonization, only a few leaders were at the Spirit Communion Stage or above; the rest were below it. They had merely cultivated unusual cultivation methods and divine abilities, making them far stronger than ordinary demon soldiers. After demonization, their abilities were formidable enough that they actually managed to hold their own against Great Illusion's Spirit Communion cultivators.
However!
Apart from a small minority, most of Great Illusion's Spirit Communion cultivators were at the late Spirit Communion Stage. Although the demon soldiers still held on, they could not last long, and casualties gradually began to mount...
"Aooo! Aooo! Aooo!" These demon soldiers had clearly never encountered anything like this before. As their numbers dwindled, their leader threw back his head and roared furiously, evidently calling for reinforcements!
"Aooo!"
Farther away, other demon soldiers really did roar in response. Clearly, more would arrive before long...
"You should leave first! We're heading straight for the Demon Realm army's lair!" Li Xiaoya told the Origin Continent cultivators, who were already staring in astonishment.
"Yes!" The heavily bearded man jolted at his words, shock spreading across his face. The others were also overcome with surprise and delight. Suddenly remembering something, the bearded man hurriedly told Li Xiaoya, "Oh, Senior! The Demon Realm army's lair is in the Mystic Heaven Mountain Range...!"
"We already know that! Hurry and leave!" Before the cultivator could finish, Li Xiaoya waved him off. "More demon soldiers will be here soon. Then you won't be able to escape!" With that-
Boom! Five-colored spiritual light erupted around Li Xiaoya, and he instantly vanished into thin air. In the blink of an eye, he had flown over a dozen miles, hurtling toward the demonized soldiers still resisting the Spirit Communion cultivators' assault...
**Whoosh!
