Chapter 531: Chapter 69 Second Master!! (Additional 3, 4)_4

His handsome face turned pale as paper. Earlier, he had continuously exerted himself to manipulate the Xuanyu Heavy Tower. Although its power was immense, the drain on its wielder was equally considerable. At this moment, he was slightly overexerted.

As he quickly swallowed the Divine Medicine to suppress his injuries, Li Tian Gang had already emerged from his Dao Domain, heading with Ji Qingqing towards the distant Divine General Mansion.

“Damn it!”

Feng Lingxiao’s expression was grim. He was unsure if his injuries had flared up due to continuous exertion or if they were drawn out by the mysterious and unpredictable Life-Defying Power.

Once the Life-Defying Power is unleashed, unpredictable “accidents” may occur to resolve situations. However, these accidents seem to subtly align with the laws of nature, as if they were long-buried clues, merely triggered by the Life-Defying Power, rather than being the result of a perceivable overwhelming force.

This is also why the Heavenly Dao is difficult to fathom.

Feng Lingxiao dared not pursue Li Tian Gang further. At this moment, the latter was wrapped in the Life-Defying Power, and Feng Lingxiao was worried that continued pursuit might cause unintended consequences for himself. Even though he was in the Grand Tao of Peace Realm, he could not sever the power of Life-Defying and could only watch the other escape.

But fortunately, the opportunity to defy fate comes only once. Striking them down later would achieve the same result, unless they fled Qingzhou City outright.

“You enjoyed your slaughter earlier; now, it’s my turn!!”

Feng Lingxiao turned, looking at Li Xiaoran and Li Qingzheng. They had slain the Demon King and massacred numerous demons, which made his blood boil with anger.

Li Xiaoran’s expression shifted dramatically, as did Li Qingzheng’s. They couldn’t understand why the array had suddenly shattered. From the looks of it earlier, it should have held out a bit longer.

“Die!”

Feng Lingxiao instantly pursued and attacked the two.

“Run!”

Li Xiaoran yelled, not intending to confront directly. Engaging in direct combat with someone wielding the Saint Heart Heavenly Treasure in the Grand Tao of Peace Realm was no different from courting death.

They could only flee!

The act of fleeing was also a means of holding off and buying time.

The two brothers shared a tacit understanding, quickly dispersing and fleeing in different directions.

Meanwhile, within the city, as the array shattered, a massive tide of demons surged in, clashing with the soldiers on the city walls.

And the Demon Kings were slaughtering throughout the city.

He Jianlan and Gao Qingqing, along with Li Xuanli and others, were cloaked in the lingering souls of their ancestors, battling fiercely with the demon tide.

Faced with Demon Kings, they could barely hold their own, but none were truly in the Four Stands Realm. Relying on the ancestral might, they could temporarily unleash formidable power, but compared to the true Four Stands Realm Demon Kings, they were still much weaker.

Boom!

Li Xuanli was pursued by a Defying Fate Realm Demon King, and with a single slap, he was sent flying and crashed to the ground, destroying structures and directly killing the residents hiding inside from the shock.

Li Xuanli spat blood, his face flushed, and roared as he used the Unwithering Strength to fight back, battling as one with the ancestral soul, barely holding his ground but steadily losing.

All over the city, there were flames of war and fierce battles everywhere in an instant.

“The demons have entered the city…”

“The city is breached!!”

Those hiding in their homes saw the massive figures of the Demon Kings fighting in the skies within the city, and the fear they had forgotten during a thousand years of peace now crept across their faces.

Inside the city, the Li Family Army clashed fiercely with the demon tide, embroiled in a chaotic battle. But without the array to hold them back, mere soldiers alone couldn’t stop the overwhelming numbers of the demon tide. Many demons took advantage of the chaos to bypass the army, storming into the city to destroy and slaughter everywhere.

Li Wushuang, Li Yuanzhao, and others quickly split up and charged at the demons wreaking havoc within the city.

But as the battle continued, more and more demons stormed the city, and the army’s defensive lines were breached by Demon Kings. Although the Yuan Camp’s soldiers were elite, they couldn’t withstand a Demon King’s assault.

On the mountain peak of Tan Palace Academy, Song Yufeng watched the crumbling city with a heart full of sorrow. Behind him were numerous masters and disciples of Tan Palace Academy.

“Our Tan Palace teaches martial arts and, more importantly, teaches humanity!”

Song Yufeng turned his head, looking at the many masters and disciples behind him, including his own granddaughter. The sadness in his eyes had disappeared, replaced with a look of steely resolve as he said:

“With demons besieging the city and citizens in peril, will Tan Palace disciples fight for the survival of all living beings?”

“Fight!!”

“Fight!!!”

The disciples shouted in unison.

Song Yufeng’s eyes filled with comfort, and he nodded before speaking solemnly, “Then follow me down the mountain to exterminate the demons!!”

As he spoke, he led the charge, heading down toward the bustling mortal world.

Many of Tan Palace’s masters followed him through the air, while the disciples either flew or descended the mountain.

Among them were outer courtyard disciples with Power Passage Realm cultivation. Some were cowardly and secretly hid, but most went without hesitation into the battle below the mountain.

In an Emerald Pond on the mountain top, waves suddenly surged, and a cerulean Water Qilin leapt out, bringing with it icy pond water as it charged down the mountain.

In front of the Divine General Mansion, Li Tian Gang, with Ji Qingqing, escaped there. They turned and looked back, seeing many demons that had once been outside the city now crawling over the city’s walls, clashing with the soldiers.

Among the crowded demons, many took advantage of the chaos to break into the city, wreaking havoc everywhere.

The entire Qingzhou City, prosperous for a thousand years, was now fated to ruin with the tearing of the array, engulfed in flames of war, giving an impression of downfall.

Li Tian Gang’s eyes briefly exhibited a daze. He had never thought that Qingzhou City, familiar to him since childhood, where all he saw was its splendid scenery, would ever face such a scene–war fires everywhere, demons filling the sky, and citizens fleeing through the streets.
