Saint You Heng’s expression was grim. But he was secretly anxious. The two Saints who had arrived this time were far too strong, surpassing even Swordsaint and Lan Yi the Female Saint. If Mad Lion Saint and the Flower Whale Demon Saint joined forces, they had a high chance of breaching the City Protection Formation. Should that happen, the millions of civilians within Cang City would face a deadly disaster.

"I will hold off Mad Lion Saint. You rely on the City Protection Formation to delay the Flower Whale Demon Saint for as long as possible."

Saint You Heng soared into the sky, gripping the Nether Serpent Holy Chain as he shot straight for Mad Lion Saint. He simultaneously instructed Master Gong Ming via Divine Sense. Currently, Master Gong Ming was the only other Saint in Cang City besides Saint You Heng himself. Therefore, he had no choice but to ask him to hold off the Flower Whale Demon Saint.

Saint You Heng also sent a message to Su Han. "Su Han, they’re after you. A great battle is about to erupt. Use it as a chance to leave. The farther you go, the better." He couldn’t bear the thought of Su Han dying prematurely here.

With that said, Saint You Heng flew out from the protection of the City Protection Formation, heading straight for Mad Lion Saint.

"You Heng, do you think I’m a fool like Swordsaint? Since you refuse to submit, then I’ll kill you!"

Mad Lion Saint roared with fury. He unleashed his Domain, which instantly expanded to seven thousand meters and blanketed nearly half the sky above Cang City. Inside, Gang Qi swirled like a tempest, coalescing into violent and powerful lions.

Without a word, Saint You Heng unleashed his own Domain, which measured six thousand meters. As the two engaged in battle, the battlefield instantly engulfed most of Cang City.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Space vibrated, cracks spiderwebbed through the air, and the power of time intertwined, causing the very fabric of this world to distort.

Although Saint You Heng’s Realm was slightly inferior to Mad Lion Saint’s, his Combat Power was not weak, and he held the Hell Nether Serpent as a trump card. Even if he couldn’t win, he could still escape.

At this moment, the Flower Whale Demon Saint’s massive tail whipped out fiercely. It was like a colossal wave or a giant god’s palm descending from the heavens as it slammed hard against the City Protection Formation. The Jing Tribe was renowned for their powerful Physical Bodies, and this was especially true for their Saints. This single strike caused the Formation Patterns to shimmer violently, showing signs of shattering.

With a solemn expression, Master Gong Ming had to use his full power to maintain the City Protection Formation, but even so, he was struggling to hold on.

"Su Han, listen to the Saint! You have to leave now! Only when you’re gone will they lose their target," Master Gong Ming urged before he had to soar into the air to stall the Flower Whale Demon Saint’s assault.

But the difference in strength between him and the Flower Whale Demon Saint was simply too vast. Even with the aid of the City Protection Formation, he was still at an absolute disadvantage.

The four Saints clashed instantaneously. Terrifying battle fluctuations swept across heaven and earth, filling the civilians of Cang City with absolute terror and sending them fleeing in a panic.

"Run! It’s a battle between Saints! We can’t possibly withstand it! Our only hope is to escape the city!"

"Did you hear them? They said they’re going to massacre the city! I don’t want to die! I have to get out!"

"Dad, where are you? Mom, are you abandoning me?"

Cang City was filled with civilians, most of whom were ordinary people. Witnessing the Saints’ battle and hearing Mad Lion Saint’s threat of a massacre, they all began scrambling to escape. Screams, cries, sobs, and wails composed a symphony of human misery. Pushing, shoving, and trampling revealed the ugliness of human nature in panic. Fear, disaster, death, and a desperate struggle for survival painted an apocalyptic scene.

At this very moment, the entire city was in turmoil. Masses of citizens swarmed the city gates, fleeing rapidly toward the outskirts.

However, an even greater catastrophe awaited them.

"Poison Gas Storm!"

A man at the Supreme Realm waved his hand, and a storm of toxic gas swept into the crowd. These were ordinary citizens with no way to resist. They succumbed to the poison instantly, their bodies turning black and rigid.

"Scorching Flames!"

Another expert, a woman at the Supreme Realm, took action. Scorching flames surged forth, instantly igniting the crowd and incinerating thousands to ash.

"Boundless Ocean!"

A Supreme Realm powerhouse from the Jing Tribe also made his move. Vast amounts of seawater gathered into a tremendous wave that rose high into the air, drowning hundreds in a single blow.

These three Supreme Realm experts were stationed outside the city. They were there not only to prevent Su Han from escaping but also to faithfully carry out the order to massacre the city’s inhabitants.

Su Han took in the entire scene, realizing that Saint You Heng and Master Gong Ming’s plan for him to escape was probably ruined. If he were to leave Cang City now, he would inevitably be pursued by those three Supreme Realm powerhouses.

These were no ordinary Supreme Realm experts. The weakest of the three, the woman wreathed in flames, was at the Supreme Realm Fifth Layer—even stronger than Qin Wushuang. He currently lacked the Eight Extremes Star Array to seal off spacetime. If he encountered them, he wouldn’t be able to handle even one, let alone all three. His defeat would be all but certain.

Su Han knew he couldn’t leave. Besides, he never intended to flee.

Both the Demon Slayer Sect and the East Sea Demon Clan are here to settle a score with me. How can I stand by and watch them fight on my behalf? That’s not who I am. When facing an enemy, no matter how strong, I will never retreat a single step. So what if they’re the Flower Whale Demon Saint and Mad Lion Saint? I will slay any god or buddha that stands in my way!

Saint You Heng and Master Gong Ming are both at a disadvantage. To win this battle, the only possibility lies with the Heavenly Tribulation!

Su Han quickly assessed the situation. Saint You Heng was on the back foot, and Master Gong Ming was at an absolute disadvantage. No one else could turn the tide. The only hope was his own Heavenly Tribulation.

The Heavenly Tribulation was a form of divine calamity with immense destructive Might. If he used it properly, the Heavenly Tribulation could become his weapon. However, once summoned, it could not be stopped, so Su Han didn’t dare trigger it lightly. Therefore, he first had to set up the Myriad Thunder Attraction Holy Formation he had recently developed.

A Holy Formation required the power of time, something Su Han lacked. Furthermore, Master Gong Ming was busy fighting the Flower Whale Demon Saint and was unable to break away to help.

I can link the Myriad Thunder Attraction Holy Formation with the City Protection Formation and borrow its power of time to compensate for what I lack.

Gazing at the City Protection Formation, a plan formed in his mind. He didn’t know if it was feasible, but at this point, he had no other choice.

Time waited for no one. The battle situation evolved with every passing second. Daring not to waste a moment, Su Han swiftly took out one precious array material after another and began to inscribe the Formation Patterns, setting up the array’s nodes.

As time ticked by, the Saintly battle in the sky grew increasingly fierce. The terrifying combat fluctuations became storms that changed the color of the heavens and shattered space itself. The scene was one of absolute terror.

Meanwhile, within Cang City, the citizens no longer dared to venture outside. They huddled together as the threat of death loomed over every single person, spreading panic through the crowds.

The entire city of Cang was experiencing an unprecedented disaster.
