Long Shenke looked at the sky in the distance, which brimmed with demonic aura and frowned. “It has come.”
The demonic aura was wild and shocking. Duan Muhong sensed it too, and a rare expression of panic crossed his face. “This demonic power feels like… it’s from the Ancient Ape Demons?”
Long Shenke placed his hand on his forehead and said, “Correct, this comes from the Ancient Ape Demons. However, the opponent just wishes to probe.”
If they planned on launching a surprise attack, they would not have done that. Right now, by revealing their demonic powers, they appeared to be picking a fight.
Duan Muhong sighed and said, “The Ancient Ape Demons will not challenge us easily. Even if they want to probe, they should be probing the other sects on the Divine Lands. According to grandmaster’s analysis of them, if the Ancient Ape Demons are leading the fight, it means that the demons have temporarily come together.”
“As for the powerful dragons, particularly the Origins Dragon King, they have yet to enter the Spirit Sea. He probably wishes to stir trouble in the Divine Lands first.”
After the Celestial Sect of Wonders and the Great Void Sect entered the Spirit Sea, very few cultivators in the Greater World could control the dragons.
However, Lin Feng left his Heaven-Destroying Sword in the Greater World. Even the Origins Dragon King had to be wary of it.
However, from another perspective, the presence of the Origins Dragon King affected Xuan Li’s freedom of movement too. Without Xuan Li, the Origins Dragon King could rampage through the Divine Lands and no one would be able to stop him.
Xuan Li’s presence in the Divine Lands was to defend against the Origins Dragon King.
Should any other Vipralopa Stage demons enter, the human cultivators would still have some space to manoeuver. The more powerful forces could repel them, and with adequate planning, they would be able to destroy any invading force.
The dragons took on the heaviest burden, allowing the other demons to relax temporarily. In exchange, they must do something too.
Long Shenke said, “The Ancient Ape Demons probably did not obtain the Secret Spirit Sea Key. If that’s the case, then the Mount Shu Sword Sect faces even greater pressure.”
Today, the Mount Shu Sword Sect had to be wary of the dragons, on top of their traditional nemesis, the Ancient Ape Demons.
In the earlier War of the Two Worlds, the Tiangang Swordmaster rushed to the Barren Expanses to battle against the dragons alongside Shi Yu and Zhu Yi.
However, Shi Yu fell in battle. The Tiangang Swordmaster and Zhu Yi then killed the Cardinal Tribulations Beginner Stage Azure Sky Dragon King.
In that battle, Zhu Yi and Yue Hongyan killed many powerful dragons, earning them their enmity.
However, while the Celestial Sect of Wonders’ turf was slightly empty, the dragons still did not dare to invade as long as Xuan Li guarded it. To the dragons, the Great Qin Empire and Shi Xingyun were better targets.
The Mount Shu Sword Sect was considered a less desirable target, but they may still be attacked.
If the two powerful demons of the Ancient Ape Demons Tribe, the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage, and the Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage, attacked Mount Shu together, and the dragons supported this attack, then the Mount Shu Sword Sect would face an extraordinary amount of pressure.
Duan Muhong understood this clearly and he replied, “We have already contacted our allies from the Mount Shu Sword Sect and they have made the necessary preparations. We have informed Seventh Uncle too.”
Long Shenke nodded his head and said nothing. While Shi Tianhao was currently in the Barren Expanses, the fact that the demons started to attack meant that Shi Tianhao was probably under pressure from some demons.
Demonic aura in the distance trembled and a terrible, black smoke enveloped the skies above Inferno Emperor City.
In the black smoke, the light started to flash. Six spots of light slowly enlarged and finally, they resembled six stars. The light shone through the gurgling black clouds and onto Inferno Emperor City below.
Long Shenke and Duan Muhong both frowned. The six balls of light, two red, two blue, and two purple, were the eyes of three powerful demons.
From the black smoke, three figures emerged. Leading them was a huge ape that was completely black which had two red eyes. His entire body brimmed with a powerful energy that shook the sky and spread in all four directions, turning the surrounding area hot. This was an Undying Demon Soul Third Level Heavenly Demon Ape.
To his left, there was a smaller monkey whose aura was comparable to his. The monkey had blue eyes and white fur. He was an Extreme Spiritual Divine Monkey.
That was the current Extreme Spiritual Grand Sage. He was originally in the Undying Demon Soul Second Level but soon, as his cultivation was successful, he ascended into the Undying Demon Soul Third Level.
To the right of the Heavenly Demon Ape, there was a demon that resembled a giant lion. From his nostrils, he breathed purple smoke. Standing in the void, one could see that he was a Suan Ni.
Suan Nis were considered rare nowadays. This Suan Ni had the highest cultivation and was in the Undying Demon Soul Third Level. Many years ago, he joined the Lingyuan Mountains and pledged allegiance to the Ancient Ape Demons. Normally, he cultivated in the Lingyuan Mountains and was supported by the Ancient Ape Demons. When they needed help, he would naturally render assistance.
Right now, along with the two other ape demons, he had come to Inferno Emperor City.
No one, except him, knew if he was truly willing to provoke the powerful Celestial Sect of Wonders.
However, as the three Undying Demon Soul Third Level demons revealed their true forms, they undoubtedly exerted a heavy pressure on Inferno Emperor City underneath them.
The Heavenly Ape Demon stood above the city and black smoke spewed non-stop from his body. He looked down at Inferno Emperor City and said slowly, “Guys, let’s attack.”
His gaze swept past the Extreme Spiritual Grand Sage and the Suan Ni Grand Sage. The Extreme Spiritual Grand Sage smiled but said nothing.
With much difficulty, he had progressed into the Undying Demon Soul Third Level. The Extreme Spiritual Divine Monkeys appeared to be on the verge of a renaissance. Naturally, he was unwilling to lead the fight for the Heavenly Ape Demon.
However, to increase his prestige and influence, he could afford to wait until he had reached the Vipralopa Stage.
Yet, the plans of the Heavenly Ape Demons differed.
The Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage himself was powerful enough and he had sufficient confidence in his abilities. However, the other powerful demons of the Heavenly Ape Demons Tribe remained guarded against the Extreme Spiritual Divine Monkey.
Yue Cheng, the Heavenly Demon Ape, looked at the Extreme Spiritual Divine Monkey and frowned in his heart.
While he had just ascended into the Undying Demon Soul Third Level, he felt inferior standing next to him.
His white frame was much smaller than Yue Cheng’s, but when Yue Cheng looked at him, he felt as if he was in a superior position.
This was not because his counterpart was from the same tribe as the Emperor of Extremity, Shenyuan. Nor was it psychological or because of their tribes. His counterpart was indeed more powerful than him.
This could be because of their different levels of cultivation and demonic powers, or even because of the difference in their physical powers. However, in terms of their mastery over their unique abilities, the Extreme Spiritual Grand Sage was more powerful than the Yue Cheng Grand Sage.
If the two of them battled to the death, it would be hard to determine the victor. However, the Yue Cheng Grand Sage felt that it may not be him.
He looked at the Extreme Spiritual Grand Sage right now, who was chuckling right now. He did not say much, but instead, he extended his white furry claws and made a grabbing motion at Inferno Emperor City.
While he was not afraid of the Yue Cheng Grand Sage, the most powerful Ancient Ape Demon was still the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage, who was a Heavenly Demon Ape like Yue Cheng. They were the most powerful tribe.
The Extreme Spiritual Grand Sage appeared to grab casually, but on his giant, furry paws, every single strand of his hairs stood up like raging dragons.
As every single strand of his hairs stood erect, they became as firm and strong as metal. A vast amount of demonic energy spewed forth, black as ink, and merged with his hair into a cloudy, grey mess.
The grey monkey claw became bigger and bigger. Covering the sky, it came squashing down onto Inferno Emperor City.
Long Shenke looked into the sky and his helmet, which resembled a dragon’s head, was already on his head. As the visor came down, only his eyes could be seen.
The chinks of his armor opened and a huge amount of Dragon Awe Auspicious Cloud spewed forth, which made him look extremely majestic.
Long Shenke’s body did not move, but he steadied his stance.
The entire mountain suddenly shone brightly and rays after rays of light shone into the sky, enveloping Inferno Emperor City.
An endless sea of fire started to spread in all four directions and engulfed the sky. Instantly, the surroundings turned into a sea of flame.
Green True Torch of Kṣitigarbha burned together with the golden Grand Sun Primordial Flame. The fire turned into rays of formation patterns and connected with each other. The green blaze turned into Yin Fire and the golden blaze turned into Yang Flames. With Inferno Emperor City as their center, they began to spin.
The center of this Taiji Diagram was the city itself. The Nanming Primordial Fire too shone around it, which formed the center of the formation.
A huge Taiji Diagram, formed from fire, started to take shape before the eyes of the Yue Cheng Grand Sage, the Extreme Spiritual Grand Sage, and the Suan Ni Grand Sage.
This was the protective spell formation, Xiao Yan, together with Li Yuanfang, cast to protect Inferno Emperor City. It originated from Xiao Yan’s own Yin Yang Burning Heavens Formation.
If Xiao Yan were here to control it, it could turn into the true Yin-Yang Burning Heavens Formation. At its peak, it was formed from many different types of Heaven Fire Lotus and its powers were vast indeed. However, it was also very difficult to control.
Even his own disciples from the Inferno Precipice would have problems, much less Li Yuanfang.
Right now, the modified formation was still formed from primordial fires. Its difficulty was much reduced. Even though Xiao Yan was not around, his disciples, such as Long Shenke, could activate it.
The great formation operated automatically. Long Shenke and the rest only needed to activate it.
While he did not use the Heaven Fire Lotus to cast it, but instead the power of the primordial fires, it was enough to increase its powers.
The sea of fire, which seemed capable of incinerating the heavens itself, burned everything around it. Even the Extreme Spiritual Grand Sage’s claws felt hot as he grabbed down on the city; he felt like it could burst into flames at any time.
He chuckled and then turned his head to look at Yue Cheng Grand Sage and the Suan Ni Grand Sage.
The Yue Cheng Grand Sage said nothing. His blood-red eyes flashed and his body, which was as vast as a mountain hovering in mid-air, descended straight down toward Inferno Emperor City. Like a huge mountain squashing down, the void was instantly shattered.
The Suan Ni Grand Sage roared and snorted. Purple smoke emerged from his nose and took the form of a thundercloud.
