Chapter 305: Chapter 60: The Array Shatters, Ten Demon Kings, Desperate Situation! (7K Combined Chapter for Monthly Ticket!!)_2
Li Tian Gang swiftly issued orders.
Li Fu nodded and hurriedly transmitted his orders in all directions.
At this moment, the four Demon Kings outside the Array made their move again.
They realized that although their attacks were being repelled by Li Tian Gang and could not be focused at one point, the damage suffered by the Array from their close-range charges was likewise immense.
“Let’s see how long you can hold out!”
Among them, a young Demon King from the Dragon Clan, with curved ox horns on his head, sneered:
“This time, we won’t let you summon the Martial Artists from the noble families of Liangzhou.”
Li Tian Gang’s heart sank; among the many orders he had issued earlier were ones to send messages to the various cities, mobilizing the city guards to join the battle.
There were also orders to gather the forces of those noble family Martial Artists.
After all, what is a noble family if the mountains and rivers are shattered?
If the border is breached and Demons encroach, those noble families would also be unable to withstand them.
“Activate the Nine Abyss Separation Fire Array!”
Li Tian Gang had an icy expression, his eyes like those of a deity observing fire, devoid of any emotion or fluctuation, unaffected by the words of the Demon Kings as he calmly issued one command after another.
His Divine Soul hovered in the air, overlooking the entire front line, and in the distance, he used beacon fire signals to assess the situation, as well as the War Eagles that kept coming back to his side to deliver messages.
These were Demonic War Eagles subdued and trained by the Li Family, not strong in attack but extremely fast, serving as messengers in this great battle, compensating for some of the precise messages that smoke signals could not convey.
Following his command, the runes on the Six Phases Star Array reversed, activating another Array to cover it.
With the combination of the two Arrays, the energy consumption of the Array spiked, but the Array also gained a terrifying offensive power.
In an instant, countless Demons charging at the Array were struck by the abruptly flashing crimson light on the Array, immediately bursting into flames.
Even some Great Demons in the Heavenly Human Realm were scorched by the Separation Fire, forcing them to retreat and desperately pat out the fierce flames on their bodies.
This fire was extremely terrifying, capable of burning the Divine Soul; if allowed to burn, even Heavenly Realm Demons would be directly incinerated!
With the activation of the Nine Abyss Separation Fire Array, the onslaught of the Demon tide was significantly alleviated, and their charging speed greatly reduced.
But within the defense line, the troops entered the most tense battle-readiness state, with countless soldiers in the camps supporting the Array, all straining every nerve to exert their full power.
“Hmph!”
Outside the Array, the four Demon Kings’ faces changed slightly. They snorted coldly and struck again.
The Array spewed out fierce Separation Fire, but while this fire had some effect on those at the Three Immortal Realms, it didn’t significantly impact the Demon Kings. They easily snuffed it out and continuously pounded the Array.
Li Tian Gang only occasionally unsheathed his sword, but separated by the Array and facing the four Demon Kings, the damage he could inflict was limited.
Surveying the battlefront, Li Tian Gang’s expression grew graver, knowing that at this rate, the Array could hold for at most half a day before the defense line would be breached!
If it were only the Demon tide, with the power of the Array and his command, he could minimize the impact as in the great battle of Northern Yan, dragging it into a war of attrition.
However, at this moment, the blows struck by these Demon Kings inflicted enormous damage on the Array. Every attack was more shattering than the charge of a thousand troops and horses, and it was focused at one point, causing stronger destruction and forcing the Array to mobilize more power for repairs.
Seeing that the four Demon Kings were still relentlessly attacking, Li Tian Gang’s eyes turned cold; he had to stop their concentrated attacks, or the Array would not withstand many more strikes before collapsing.
He was restrained here, unable to reinforce other parts of the front.
“Since you want to attack, then I’ll let you die!!”
Rage surged in his heart.
Then, his gaze fixed firmly on the Demons, as if driven to desperation, he roared and brandished his Divine Weapon, stepping out of the Array to fight.
The four Demon Kings saw Li Tian Gang finally losing his patience and smirked coldly, waiting for this very moment. Once the Array breaks, their Demon tide will surge forth unstoppable.
“Daring to come out, you’re seeking death!”
The few Demon Kings suddenly struck, seizing the opportunity to launch a fierce attack at Li Tian Gang.
Li Tian Gang took eight consecutive steps, holding his Divine Weapon, standing alone against the four Demon Kings; two of them were at the Defying Fate Realm, and the other two at the Tao Heart Realm, but his eyes were defiant and radiant, showing no fear.
“Just mere beasts, what else can you do except gang up?!”
Li Tian Gang’s words were contemptuous as he resolutely wielded his sword.
The four Demon Kings joined forces to block Li Tian Gang’s blade, shocked by its might. No wonder he was able to slay Feng Shan Jun—they realized that Li Tian Gang’s battle strength was indeed terrifying; among his peers, he would likely have no equal.
“The True Dragon of the Li Family is well-deserved. I’ll make sure you die quickly!”
The Great Void Realm vine Demon elder spoke.
“You think you can kill me? You are not worthy!”
Li Tian Gang roared angrily and suddenly lunged at him.
The vine Demon elder smirked, his body suddenly revealing its true form, rooting his feet into the ground, feeling as if they reached through heaven and earth, while his arms emitted countless tough branches and withered vines.
These withered vines were extremely tough, like Divine Weapons, lashing towards Li Tian Gang.
Yet more vines were transformed into a web-like trap, attempting to ensnare Li Tian Gang and limit his movements.
Li Tian Gang’s Divine Soul suddenly emerged behind him, his hands clapped together, and then he viciously slapped out a divine palm of fire, sweeping across and pressing down on the vines, which started to catch fire.
“Great Flame Luo Hand!”
He cried out loudly, waving his hands in consecutive palm strikes, stirring the heavens and earth. Against the fierce assault of the four Demon Kings, he managed to hold his own for the time being.
The more the four Demon Kings fought, the more startled they became. They had heard that Li Tian Gang had single-handedly faced more than ten Great Demons of the Three Immortal Realms during the great battle of Northern Yan and had cut down half of them. The rumors, it seemed, were true.
