More Reinforcements Arrive

"The monster-stealing guys are here. We need to speed things up!"

Lu Feng muttered something under his breath, then turned his blade and charged deeper into the horde of beasts.

He specifically targets second-tier demonic beasts, killing them one by one with a single strike, without expending any effort.

On the high slope, the fourth-tier tiger king finally sat up straight.

It stared at the direction of the pass for a while, then slowly a smile spread across its face.

"The reinforcements have finally arrived!"

It turned its head and spoke to a fourth-tier Black Crane with a crane's head and a human body beside it.

"You're quick. Go and inform the young master that we can begin."

"Yes."

Black Crane responded, and a pair of gray-white wings grew from its back. With a flap of its wings, its body turned into a blurry afterimage and disappeared from the spot.

"Alright, you fools, you can go now. These humans are yours to do as you please."

"Great! I've been waiting for this moment for so long!"

Black Iron Bear was the first to leap up, its massive body launching an attack towards Lu Feng.

The other Demon King weren't in such a hurry.

They first summoned hundreds of third-tier demonic beasts to lead the charge, and then separated four fourth-tier Demon King, each rushing towards a human Grandmaster.

Black Iron Bear had long been eyeing Lu Feng.

In its eyes, this human had blocked the entrance for so long and killed so many of its underlings; this debt needed to be settled properly.

Its two front paws expanded and deformed in mid-air, turning into two bear paws larger than washbasins, and slammed down on Lu Feng's head.

When Lu Feng discovered the Black Iron Bear, its two large, fan-like paws were already pressing down on his head.

He only had time to raise his sword to block, hastily activating his True Essence.

"Boom!"

A dull, loud thud.

Lu Feng's feet dug two deep furrows in the ground, and he slid back several steps.

The Black Iron Bear's massive body was also thrown back several steps by the recoil, its paws going numb.

It looked down at its palm, then looked up at Lu Feng. Its bear face showed confusion at first, then it grinned, revealing a mouthful of fangs.

"Haha! I never imagined there were humans with such tough bodies! I love it!"

It slapped its two paws together, making the air buzz.

"Again!"

It exerted force with all four limbs and rammed into Lu Feng again.

This time the attack was even more powerful, Lu Feng did not try to meet it head-on.

He shifted to the side, unleashing the Carefree Steps, his entire body gliding past the edge of the Black Iron Bear's palm strike.

He didn't want to waste his energy on the bear.

Reinforcements have arrived; the battlefield is teeming with monsters—these are all Demon Points.

Rather than fighting a tough, fourth-tier bear king to the death, it's better to take care of those lower-tier monsters first.

He turned his feet, his blade still flashing, passing under the armpit of the Black Iron Bear, and with a backhand slash, he cut down two second-tier wolf demons beside him.

With another flash, he reappeared several feet away, slaying a group of monkey demons who were preparing to besiege the Hua Jin artist.

Black Iron Bear's palm strike missed its target, smashing into the ground and creating a crater half a person deep.

It turned around and found that the human had already run more than ten feet away, and was happily killing its underlings.

It roared and leaped after it.

However, it is too big, and although it is not slow, it is much less agile.

Lu Feng moved left and right among the beasts, Black Iron Bear missed its target every time it pounced, instead trampling to death many of its own low-level demonic beasts.

The Profound Water Crocodile standing nearby couldn't stand it any longer.

It originally thought that the Black Iron Bear could easily crush the human blocking the pass into mincemeat, but after fighting for a long time, it couldn't even touch the hem of the man's clothes.

It cursed under its breath, leaped into the fray, and tried to flank Lu Feng from the side.

Upon seeing this, Lu Feng immediately used the Phantom Steps.

Three figures appeared on the battlefield simultaneously, each carrying the exact same aura.

The Profound Water Crocodile's paw passed through one of the afterimages, but it caught nothing.

It paused for a moment, then lunged at the other path, only to find nothing there.

The third figure had already flashed several feet away, continuing to slay the demonic beasts with his blade.

The two fourth-tier Demon King fought together for a long time but couldn't even touch a hair on Lu Feng's head.

Lu Feng weaved back and forth between the two Demon King, dodging and reaping rewards as he did so. With each flash of his blade, the numbers on his points token kept climbing.

On the other side, Lu Shuang put away her sword formation after the reinforcements arrived.

She maintained the sword formation precisely to block the pass and prevent demonic beasts from taking advantage of any opening.

Now that reinforcements have arrived, there is no need to waste True Essence maintaining the sword formation at the pass.

She sheathed her Frost Sword and turned to face the two fourth-tier Demon King head-on.

Unlike Lu Feng, she chose to confront him head-on.

With the Frost Sword in hand, her Sword Force was as sharp as frost, each strike carrying Sword Qi.

The two Demon King were repeatedly defeated by her sword, their bodies constantly bearing new wounds.

In the short time it takes for an incense stick to burn, she seized an opening and pierced the throat of a Demon King with her sword, killing him instantly.

Before they could even catch their breath, two more fourth-tier Demon King pounced from the flanks.

With the three Demon King working together, Lu Shuang's offensive was immediately suppressed, forcing her to switch to a defensive stance and barely maintain her undefeated position.

On the battlefield, although reinforcements arrived, the number of monsters was simply too great.

The defensive line was stretched too long, and the martial artists at the Hua Jin Realm began to suffer casualties.

A Hua Jin artist at the Transformation Realm was besieged by three Tier 3 demonic beasts. He fought with all his might to kill one of them, but was then ambushed from behind by the other two. One of them slashed his shoulder, sending him flying.

Before he could even get up, a third-tier wolf demon pounced on him, aiming straight for his throat.

Just then, a black figure suddenly appeared between him and the wolf demon.

With a flash of light, the wolf demon's head flew off.

Two more strikes followed, and the two third-tier demonic beasts were also cut down to the ground.

Thank you!

He had narrowly escaped death, and his voice was trembling.

Lu Feng didn't turn around, but simply raised his hand and pointed behind him:

"Don't charge alone. Go and rejoin the main force."

Before he finished speaking, he had already vanished into the horde of beasts.

The Hua Jin artist who had reached the Transformation Realm quickly got up and ran towards the other martial artists who had reached the Hua Jin Realm.

He thought he was strong enough to kill more monsters on his own, but he almost lost his life here.

Now he understood that this was not the place to play the hero.

Lu Feng charged back and forth through the horde of beasts.

He killed low-level demonic beasts while keeping an eye on his surroundings.

If any martial artist at the Hua Jin was surrounded, he would dart over and deliver the finishing blow.

If the pressure is greater in a certain direction, he will kill more enemies in that direction.

Lu Feng did this because he discovered a strange phenomenon.

Although third- and fourth-tier monsters have joined the battle, they do not seem to be in a hurry to rush to the pass.

Although those fourth-tier Demon King were fierce, they always lingered on the periphery of the battlefield, and none of them actually charged towards the pass.

They seem to be delaying, wasting time, waiting for something.

Lu Feng didn't have time to think too much. There were too many demonic beasts in front of him, so he could only do his best to kill them.

About half an hour later, another batch of reinforcements arrived.
