Chapter 1663
Vajra Crimson Flame Demon Bee Combined Formation
However, the Cangxuan Flying Boat is fast after all.
Moreover, the only two late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect, Vajra Demon Lord and Golden Rock Demon Lord, as well as a large number of demonic cultivators, were successively killed.
The strength of the entire Vajra Demon Rock Sect was greatly reduced.
Even the demonic cultivators who had reached the Nascent Soul stage were few and far between.
For a time, the only thing that could be considered respectable in the entire Vajra Demon Rock Sect was the protective formations of the various demonic lands.
However, those formations cannot be moved after all, as they are set up based on demonic veins.
Therefore, no matter how strong they are, they can hardly reverse the situation.
In addition, the Cangxuan lineage is quite powerful and its morale is currently high.
Like a raging storm, they easily conquered the other three border demonic lands of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect, as well as all the ordinary demonic lands.
They eventually reached the gates of the Vajra Demon Sect.
In addition, although the Cangxuan lineage had wasted a lot of time when they were besieging the other demonic lands,
However, Ling Pengyun and other senior members of the Cangxuan lineage were experienced and had already dispatched a group of powerful individuals to guard the mountain gate.
They did not seek to breach the mountain gate, but only to intimidate the group of demonic cultivators remaining inside, lest they run away with the treasures within the Vajra Demon Rock Sect's mountain gate.
It was precisely because of this that even though the group of demonic cultivators inside the Vajra Demon Rock Sect's mountain gate had long ago sensed that the situation outside was not good through some special means.
They were unable to escape in time and became trapped beasts.
And this moment.
Inside the mountain gate.
"I never imagined that in just a few months, our sect, a prestigious and long-established superior Nascent Soul demonic sect, would fall to such a wretched state."
"Moreover, the Cangxuan lineage... their current actions are likely to extinguish our sect's lineage!"
"..."
The strongest veteran mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator left behind, "Red Bee Demon," looked at the Cangxuan lineage's army that was constantly approaching the mountain gate, his brows furrowed with helplessness.
Even if we count the hundreds of thousands of years since the establishment of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect, such a situation is probably extremely rare.
Red Bee Demon is the Grand Elder of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect and the junior brother of Vajra Demon Lord, holding an extremely high position within the sect.
He was quite old, with a weathered face and strange, long blue hair covering his head, making him look extremely sinister.
In addition, his skills are extremely good; not only has his cultivation level already reached the peak of the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
He also mastered the art of beast taming, and even cultivated it to the middle level of the fifth rank at a young age.
He then used this method to cultivate many powerful demonic beasts.
Indirectly, his strength was thus boosted, and it is even rumored that his strength is not much weaker than that of the two late-stage Nascent Soul demons, Vajra Demon Lord and Golden Rock Demon Lord.
It was precisely for this reason that when Vajra Demon Lord and Golden Rock Demon Lord led countless demon cultivators from various sects to guard the strategically important border city of "Golden Qian Demon City," they entrusted their mountain gates to their management with peace of mind.
However, such chores are not considered good jobs these days.
The old demon Red Bee is under immense pressure.
He even regretted taking the job in the first place.
After all, if he had gone to guard various demonic lands in the outside world, he might have had a chance to escape.
"The main force of the Cangxuan lineage is really fast. I didn't expect them to arrive here so quickly."
"This is not good news for us demonic cultivators who are left to guard the mountain gate."
"I wonder if our sect will be able to survive this calamity safely."
"..."
At this moment, the remaining high-ranking members of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect who remained at the mountain gate, as well as a large number of ordinary demon cultivators, were extremely panicked and filled with worry.
Although this place is the mountain gate of the Vajra Demon Sect.
The Vajra Demon Rock Sect attaches great importance to this place.
Even though they sent many demonic cultivators to the outside world to oversee things, they also left tens of millions of demonic cultivators behind to guard this place.
Moreover, most of them had decent cultivation levels, at least at the mid-stage of Qi Refining.
When they come together, they can form a considerable force.
However, compared to the vast and powerful main force of the Cangxuan lineage, it still has some shortcomings.
Even before, the Cangxuan lineage had only sent some branch teams to block the door, which was enough to give them a hard time.
Under such circumstances, they were extremely troubled and even terrified of fighting, and were inclined to flee.
It's just a pity that I never had the chance.
"Everyone, the formation that our sect has set up here is indeed powerful."
"Moreover, this place is only the first line of defense for our sect. If things go wrong, we can retreat into the Vajra Demon Rock Secret Realm that our sect has been developing for countless years."
"And that place is protected by a top-grade fifth-order high-quality array that my sect painstakingly acquired, making it extremely sturdy."
"Even if the Cangxuan lineage is far stronger than us now, I'm afraid it will take them a lot of time to break through."
Seeing this, the Red Bee Demon quickly used a telepathic technique to reassure him.
The Vajra Demon Rock Sect's mountain gate in the Heavenly River Realm, "Vajra Small Mountain Range," has many demonic veins.
There are even two or three top-tier fifth-order mid-grade demonic veins, whose demonic energy is stronger than that of border strongholds like Jinqian Demon City.
However, this place is not the core area of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect.
It is merely the outer defense line of the "Vajra Demon Rock Secret Realm".
The Vajra Demon Rock Secret Realm is located in the void, and is not only hidden.
Furthermore, it had set up an extremely powerful top-tier fifth-grade magic array to help conceal its aura.
It would be difficult for an ordinary person to find its exact location.
Furthermore, it contains more demonic veins than the Vajra Mountain Range, and even contains fifth-grade high-quality demonic veins.
The demonic energy in that area reached its peak, making it the place where elite disciples of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect and various Nascent Soul experts resided.
Ordinary demonic cultivators would not be able to enter under normal circumstances.
'If we have such a way out, our situation isn't too bad.'
'...'
Upon hearing this, the many ordinary demonic sect disciples who remained at the Vajra Mountain Range were immediately relieved.
Their morale has recovered somewhat.
'I only hope that the ordinary disciples can step up their game.'
Seeing this, the Great Elder, the Red Bee Demon, secretly looked forward to it.
Subsequently, once the Cangxuan lineage reached their attack range, he immediately led the tens of millions of demonic cultivators remaining within the Vajra Demon Rock Sect to launch a counterattack.
Immediately afterwards, he summoned hundreds of powerful crimson demon bees.
They are very similar to the unique Vajra Demon Rock Bee Set of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect, and are only the size of a fist.
Moreover, it contains countless demonic energies and is a demonic beast.
However, they also have some differences. The skin of those crimson demon bees is crimson, their eyes are extremely fierce, and their bodies are full of killing intent.
It is clearly a master of killing, far superior to the docile demon bees like the Vajra Demon Rock Bee.
Moreover, their cultivation levels are all extremely high, with even the weakest reaching the Nascent Soul stage.
Among them, dozens had even reached the Nascent Soul stage, with the queen bee reaching the late Nascent Soul stage.
In addition, the origins of those demon bees are extremely mysterious.
The Vajra Demon Rock Sect is particularly adept at cultivating bee-type demonic beasts, thanks to its sect-protecting auxiliary demonic bee, the Vajra Demon Rock Bee.
They had a special fondness for such monsters.
Therefore, since the establishment of the Vajra Demon Sect, it has been extensively collecting various demonic bee species with strong aptitude.
Furthermore, they even took the opportunity to cultivate some special bee species using special demonic techniques and the bloodline essence of many powerful demonic bee species.
Although most of them have only average abilities.
However, the 'Vajra Crimson Flame Demon Bees' are an exception; they are extremely powerful. Not only are their physical bodies formidable, but they are also skilled in demonic fire magic.
They even possess extremely strong resistance to various orthodox and pure Yang methods, demonstrating their extraordinary abilities.
Each demon bee possesses at least 50% of the strength of its rank.
However, they do have a drawback: they are difficult to reproduce.
Even though the Vajra Demon Sect has nurtured them for hundreds of thousands of years, they have only managed to grow them to a few hundred.
Even so, those demon bees were still able to hold their own.
The Great Elder of the Demon Sect, the Crimson Bee Demon, was, after all, the strongest beast tamer in the Vajra Demon Rock Sect. He had always kept those demon bees by his side and nurtured them.
"Vajra Beast Taming and Spirit Subduing Technique!"
"The Vajra Beast Taming and Divine Subduing Technique..."
"..."
"Congeal!"
Meanwhile, the Crimson Bee Demon Lord, a high-level beast tamer, continuously cast special beast taming techniques into the bodies of those demon bees through hand seals.
The magical power, spiritual awareness, and physical strength of those demonic bees all surged, resulting in a leap in their overall power.
Their aura also became more extraordinary.
Even that queen bee is now only one step away from reaching the perfect Nascent Soul stage.
"go with!"
With a wave of his hand, the Crimson Bee Demon Lord sent hundreds of demon bees into a frenzy, charging straight out of the Demon Sect.
Moreover, their tail stings spewed out countless domineering, demonic crimson flames.
Ultimately, it coalesced into a terrifying cloud of fire, sweeping towards the Cangxuan lineage.
The fiery cloud was extremely hot and contained a strange corrosive power, much like sulfuric acid.
Once it attaches to you, you'll likely be severely injured, if not killed.
In addition, the Crimson Bee Demon Lord also brought out several mid-grade fifth-tier magic treasures with considerable power.
He also activated the "Vajra Formation," a fifth-order superior-grade protective formation within the Vajra Small Mountain Range of the Mountain Gate, as well as the "Demon Rock Formation," a top-grade fifth-order superior-grade sect-protecting formation deep within the Vajra Demon Rock Secret Realm of the Mountain Gate.
Those two formations are extremely special. They are of the same origin and were set up by the ancestors of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect at great cost in their early years by a demonic formation master.
Once fully activated, they can complement each other.
At the same time, countless array patterns materialized and intertwined within the two formations.
Ultimately, they merged into one, unleashing a terrifying array aura that was not much weaker than a fifth-tier top-grade array.
Its defensive power increased several times, forming a thicker array of light that firmly protected the entire Vajra Mountain Range and the Vajra Secret Realm.
Moreover, its attack array weapon, the "Vajra Demon Rock Banner," appeared with a flash of demonic light.
It gradually transformed into a golden giant.
It was a hundred feet tall, and looked as if it were made of blocks of gold, extremely dazzling.
Moreover, his physique is incredibly strong and contains hundreds of millions of kilograms of immense strength. Although he is not yet comparable to a Nascent Soul cultivator at the peak of his cultivation, he can still barely hold his own against one or two veteran Nascent Soul cultivators at the late stage.
This array spirit is also the strongest technique of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect.
At this moment, as soon as the array spirit appeared, under the command of the Demon Sect's Grand Elder, it stepped into the void and strode towards the Cangxuan lineage.
During this period, the remaining tens of millions of demonic cultivators within the Demonic Sect also resorted to various methods.
In an instant, a multitude of demonic techniques were unleashed, and the Cangxuan lineage army that had just attacked surged forth in overwhelming numbers.
……
at the same time.
"The special combination formation of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect, and the swarm of Vajra Crimson Fire Bees, are indeed as interesting as the rumors suggest."
"I'm afraid the danger of this battle will be no less than that of the battle at Jinqian Demon City."
“Madam, Cheng Xia, Cheng Mie… I estimate it will be difficult to take care of you during the upcoming battle.”
"You must be careful."
Ling Pengyun frowned slightly as he looked at the formidable 'Vajra Demon Rock Array Spirit' and the Vajra Crimson Fire Demon Bee Swarm among the many attacks coming his way. He quickly warned Yan Siyi and the other Nascent Soul cultivators from the family who were standing beside him.
“My lord, we know what we're doing, but you must also be careful.”
"..."
Yan Siyi was quite worried about Ling Pengyun because she knew that as a core member of the Cangxuan lineage, he had a lot to bear.
"Yes, Father, at most we can only fight against some early and mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, but for a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator like you, the battles you participate in will be extremely dangerous."
Ling Chengxia and Ling Chengmie, along with other members of the Nascent Soul stage from various families, spoke up.
"Rest assured, no one can threaten me in this battle."
Ling Pengyun felt a warmth in his heart and was full of confidence. He then greeted the Star Sea Ancestor.
“Ancestor, the Vajra Demon Rock Array Spirit that the great array transformed into is indeed quite strong.”
"How about we join forces to stop them for a bit?"
Although that spirit was powerful.
However, it is estimated that only he and the Star Sea Ancestor in the entire Cangxuan lineage are capable of fighting him and joining forces to stop him.
Therefore, no matter what, he and the Star Sea Ancestor must do this.
"of course."
Knowing full well how much of a threat the array spirit posed to this battle, the Star Sea Ancestor immediately agreed.
They then immediately took action.
Great supernatural power—the pine tree, the morning glow, and the thunder dragon!
Starry Sea Dragon Banner! ...
A variety of powerful methods immediately emerged.
Moreover, they were extremely fast, and soon they clashed with the hundred-foot-tall Vajra Demon Rock Array Spirit.
Countless roars suddenly resounded.
Waves of spiritual and magical energy spread in all directions, terrifying beyond measure.
If it weren't for the protective array of the Cangxuan lineage's flying boats protecting the surrounding ordinary cultivators, many would probably have died.
However, Ling Pengyun and the Star Sea Ancestor's methods were indeed formidable.
With their combined efforts, they not only managed to stop the array spirit.
They even managed to force them into a series of defeats.
However, that spirit of the array was quite capable; its physique was incredibly strong, even tougher than a fifth-grade high-level defensive magic treasure.
He was not seriously injured for the time being.
'That spirit array is truly terrifying.'
'I never imagined that even with my husband and the Star Sea Ancestor working together, they could only repel it.'
Yan Siyi, who was standing next to Ling Pengyun, was quite surprised to see this.
Ling Pengyun and the Star Sea Ancestor are extremely powerful, even capable of killing late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators of the same level.
Under such circumstances, if the two of them joined forces, they would probably be able to put up a fight even against a Nascent Soul stage expert and remain invincible.
But now, they find it difficult to kill that spirit in a short time?
This matter is extremely unusual.
Undoubtedly, the power of that spirit array far exceeded the imagination of the world.
That's why Yan Siyi took this battle more seriously.
She was aware that she was not capable of participating in battles of that level on her own.
She simply summoned Ling Chengxia and Ling Chengmie, along with the rest of the Nascent Soul cultivators from her family, to join forces with Elder Zhengyuan and Elder Xingqing, a fifth-tier high-grade array master, to resist the swarm of powerful Vajra Crimson Flame Demon Bees. (End of Chapter)
