Chapter 1687: Chapter 1677: Starting the Counterattack
With the deterrence of Long Yan, the Demon Clan’s army was extremely wary, but they did not retreat.
With the Heavenly Punishment Imperial Seal in hand, it was impossible for them to breach the Ancient City of Taihuang, but Long Yan also definitely could not hold out for long.
"Thinking of wearing me down, huh? Then you’ve miscalculated!"
Long Yan sneered inwardly, he wasn’t worried about the consumption at all.
Time passed slowly, and half a day later, the Evil Emperor, Mad Emperor, and Profound Demon Venerable—the three Supreme Elders—arrived with the Zhenyang Sect’s Great Army.
"Sect Leader, are you alright?"
The Evil Emperor stepped forward and asked.
Seeing the scene on the battlefield, it must have been a fierce fight.
"I’m fine!"
Long Yan put away the Heavenly Punishment Imperial Seal, and the Thunder Punishment tribulation cloud above the sky dome also began to dissipate.
"Ten thousand disciples guard the Ancient City of Taihuang, the rest follow me to slaughter the Demon Clan!"
Long Yan turned around, his gaze sweeping over the one hundred thousand disciples of the Zhenyang Sect, he said aloud.
"To battle!"
Then, with a wave of Long Yan’s big hand, he declared the commencement of the battle.
"Kill!"
In an instant, shouts of killing shook the heavens, the disciples of Zhenyang Sect surged out like a tide, charging towards the opposing Demon Clan.
Even though they were at a serious disadvantage in terms of numbers, their momentum was like a rainbow. With the Sect Leader present, everyone was as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
The Evil Emperor, Mad Emperor, Profound Demon Venerable, Suofeng Ghost Emperor, War Heaven Double Emperor, Blood Mad Butcher, and others also took action, wielding divine artifacts, their powerful attack methods surged towards the Demon Clan.
The Demon Clan was also waiting for this opportunity, likewise charging towards this side.
"Boom," "Boom boom"...
Very quickly, the Zhenyang Sect’s Great Army engaged in a fierce battle with the Demon Clan’s Great Army, terrifying powers rampaged across the battlefield, and a great battle unfolded.
"Kill!"
Long Yan also charged into the battlefield, the six Different Fires rose from within his body, covering everything in its path with a sea of flames, countless members of the Demon Clan were incinerated into ashes by the Strange Fire.
"Eye of Annihilation!"
"Nine Dragons Battle Heaven Seal!"
"Burning Heaven Prison!"
...
One after another, powerful divine abilities were unleashed from Long Yan’s hands, each attack slaying dozens of the Demon Clan, turning him into an unfeeling slaughter machine, relentlessly reaping lives.
In the midst of the battlefield, the Chaos Sky Peng and Black Dragon were also extremely fierce, with Black Dragon invoking the Swallowing Heaven’s Gate, pulling countless members of the Demon Clan into the Demon Dragon Realm, while the Chaos Sky Peng directly treated the Demon Clan as food, devouring hundreds of members with each swallow.
The Chaos Sky Peng continuously devoured and refined, its momentum gradually climbing, and at this rate, it wouldn’t be long before it could attract a divine tribulation.
Although the Zhenyang Sect had strong ones and the Demon Clan could not resist, the Demon Clan’s numbers were vast, and the Zhenyang Sect didn’t gain much advantage, especially the Zhenyang Sect’s disciples, who were under great pressure.
The battle continued, and time kept flowing by.

Giant Sword City.
In the Great Hall, Li Yuanba, the Beast Emperor, Lei Zhan, Four Heavenly Monarchs, Jun Lingtian, and others were seated, with Li Yuanba sitting in the chief seat.
"At present, the crisis of Giant Sword City has been temporarily resolved, but we still have no clear understanding of the Demon Clan’s tricks, we cannot afford to be careless."
Li Yuanba said.
"The main force of the Demon Clan is in the Ancient City of Taihuang, do we know the situation there yet?"
Lei Zhan said in a deep voice.
Although they managed to repel the Demon Clan and temporarily hold Giant Sword City, they had truly experienced the strength of the Demon Clan.
The Demon Clan was even more terrifying than they had imagined, and one thing was undeniably certain, the Demon Clan definitely still had Strong Ones.
Once the truly powerful members of the Demon Clan made their move, their situation would become even more perilous.
"Master has already gone to the Ancient City of Taihuang personally, and three Supreme Elders have also set off with him, so there shouldn’t be any problems,"
Li Yuanba responded.
Actually, he was also somewhat worried in his heart, as the situation in the Ancient City of Taihuang was a hundred times more dangerous than in Giant Sword City.
"Although the Demon Clan has retreated, they’re still covetously watching us; we must be ready for battle at any time,"
Li Yuanba said, "Disciples who are injured may go to claim Healing Pills. The Jiu Xiao Dynasty is another matter; with just this battle, we are at least no longer unfamiliar with the Demon Clan. In the upcoming period, everyone should take the time to heal. I will personally guard Giant Sword City."
Having repelled the Demon Clan, Zhenyang Sect also suffered heavy losses, with many disciples injured, all needing to recover quickly.
"We must quickly get a clear understanding of the Demon Clan’s details, or else, we will be too passive,"
the Beast Emperor remarked.
"On that matter, I’ve made arrangements well in advance."
Li Yuanba had already thought of this issue and made the necessary arrangements; however, it required waiting for the results.

In the Four Great Territories of the Eastern Divine Domain, Demon God Domain, City of the Great Emperor, and Beiming Star Sea, like the Southern Wasteland Continent, they all faced crises as the Demon Clan plundered everywhere.
The Jiu Xuan Imperial Family, Ten Thousand Merchant Alliance, Demon God Emperor Palace, Three Gods Sect, Supreme Hall, Fairy Pool Sky Mountain, Wangchuan Family—these colossal forces were all contending against the Demon Clan, with the entire imperial area plunged into war and chaos.
The Demon Clan wreaked havoc, and the living suffered greatly.
If one observed carefully, one would realize that the entire imperial area was already being eroded by Demonic Qi, and the imperial area was transforming into the Demon Territory.
As calamity descended, the inherent energy within the imperial area was undergoing subtle changes.
In the Southern Wasteland Continent, above the sky, several pairs of eyes were intently observing everything happening on the Southern Wasteland Continent.
"Sect Master, shouldn’t we make our move?"
The Blood Spirit Leader asked softly.
"The timing is not yet right. The Demon Clan aims to devour the entire imperial area, while our goal does not lie within the imperial area. It’s not yet the time to act,"
the Burial Sky Sect Master said softly.
"With the Demon Clan just having broken free from their Seal, they’re acting this wildly, simultaneously attacking the Five Great Territories. Could it be that the Demon Clan really has the capacity to swallow the imperial area whole?"
asked another Strong One.
Under normal circumstances, even if the Demon Clan intended to devour the entire imperial area, focusing on one point and then steadily breaking through would greatly increase their chances of success. Unless the Demon Clan actually possessed the strength to engulf the imperial area in one go.
"The Demon Clan probably doesn’t have such ability. If they’re acting this way, they certainly have another ulterior motive,"
the Burial Sky Church Master stated. "The imperial area is not as simple as you all imagine; at least that person possesses the strength to eradicate the Demon Clan."
When mentioning that person, a hint of wariness rose in the eyes of the Burial Sky Church Master.
"What exactly is the Demon Clan’s purpose?" freewёbnoνel.com
the Strong One asked again.
"We don’t know yet, but we will know soon,"
the Burial Sky Church Master said softly.
"For now, the Burial Sky Church should refrain from any action. No matter to what extent the flames of war in the imperial area burn, it has nothing to do with the Burial Sky Church."
Having said this, the Burial Sky Church Master left with several followers.
