In terms of defense, Stone was naturally quite adept.

Once Baibai entered its protected range, it immediately layered multiple protective barriers on it.

The long arrow struck the defense spell deployed by Stone, only piercing through the first layer of the light screen before being blocked by a stone wall behind.

However, the arrow was truly sinister and vicious.

After shattering upon the stone wall, it burst into countless blood-red lights that hit the wall, each imbued with a potent corrupting power that immediately riddled the stone wall with holes, leaving it tattered.

It was easy to imagine how horrific the outcome would have been if the arrow had hit the flesh.

Seeing his arrow fail to achieve its goal, the "White-Haired Blood Demon" Ge Changsheng furrowed his brow, put down his White Bone Longbow for the moment, and quickly began to form hand seals. Shortly after, he splayed his fingers and cast a bloody red light beam towards Zhou Chun.

Upon hitting Stone's earthen yellow protective barrier, the blood-colored beam instantly pierced a hole through it and then struck the black shield around Zhou Chun with great force, causing the shield to shake violently and small cracks to appear.

Such power was already superior to many Third Order high-grade spells, evidently a potent Blood Bone Sect secret technique.

Zhou Chun, at this moment, realized the difficulty in dealing with the "White-Haired Blood Demon."

If he were to be compared with the strength of "Corpse Fiend General" Jiang Zhong, Zhou Chun realized that in order to slay his opponent, it would take all his strength, allowing Baibai to cast "Heavenly Gang Divine Thunder" twice to possibly kill him.

And that was only a possibility!

If the enemy had some formidable secret technique or magic artifact to protect him, it wasn't completely impossible for them to block or dodge the strike of "Heavenly Gang Divine Thunder."

In that case, not only would he have revealed all his trump cards, but he might also end up without any gains, a massive loss indeed.

Therefore, Zhou Chun was yet undecided about whether to proceed with such an action.

He glanced over the overall situation on the battlefield: overall, the Heavenly Spirit Legion was clearly holding the advantage, mostly due to the obvious numerical superiority.

With this in mind, Zhou Chun judged that even if he and the "White-Haired Blood Demon" Ge Changsheng ended in a stalemate, it would not adversely affect his side's position.

This thought of holding back grew stronger within him.

Thus, in the subsequent combat, Zhou Chun and his two spirit pets adopted a defensive stance as their main strategy, engaging in counter-attack warfare with their opponent.

It must be said that with Zhou Chun's current magic artifact configuration, coupled with the presence of the Golden Armor Turtle Bearer, Stone, once he chose to take a defensive position, it was truly difficult for anyone within the Purple Mansion Phase to pose any mortal threat to him.

Even with the "White-Haired Blood Demon" Ge Changsheng's higher cultivation level and superior magical instruments, and his many practiced secret techniques, when faced with his full defense, Ge Changsheng found it as futile as a rat trying to bite through a turtle shell, unable to break his defense.

"Aren't you the insolent youngster? I've heard you came to the battlefield to compete for a place among the 'Seven Paragons of the Heavenly Spirit,' or is this how you hope to compete, hiding in a turtle shell?" said the "White-Haired Blood Demon" Ge Changsheng, aggravated after a long failed offensive and resorting to verbal taunts at Zhou Chun.

But Zhou Chun simply ignored his curses and mockery. No matter what he said, Zhou Chun acted as if he hadn't heard a thing.

His mind was made up to drag out the fight.

As it turned out, Zhou Chun's decision was wise.

Because after Zhou Chun and the "White-Haired Blood Demon" Ge Changsheng had been fighting for nearly three-quarters of an hour, more reinforcements for both sides joined the battlefield. Even a Demon Cultivator from the "Primordial Demon Legion" who had been ranked among the "Seven Deadly Fiends," and a cultivator from the Heavenly Spirit Legion who had once served some time among the "Seven Paragons of the Heavenly Spirit," appeared and quickly engaged in intense combat.

Had Zhou Chun previously used his ultimate move to slay the "White-Haired Blood Demon" Ge Changsheng, his severely weakened state may have made him a prime target for the Primordial Demon Legion, and even the Demon Cultivator ranked among the "Seven Deadly Fiends" might have come to slay him.

Thus, after nearly two hours of continuous fighting, with the lower and middle-tier cultivators on both sides having exhausted a great deal of mana during the fierce battle, they were forced to adopt a strategy of retreating and regrouping.

As usual, both sides would likely withdraw their troops and regroup to fight another day.

At this point, Zhou Chun had also suffered severe mana depletion and did not wish to engage in further pointless consumption with the enemy.

So he had the Thunder Python Baibai, who had not consumed much mana, cast "Heavenly Thunder Slash" forcefully in a counterattack, causing Ge Changsheng to quickly retract his aggression and hasten to defend himself.

Zhou Chun, seizing the opportunity, commanded Stone to retreat towards the area where his own army was consolidating.

At the same time, he managed to throw a harsh statement, "Today is not the day for you and me to determine life and death, another day when Zhou Mou is in top form, I'll take your old demon head!"

Upon hearing this, the "White-Haired Blood Demon" Ge Changsheng immediately understood what he meant.

After taking a reluctant look at Zhou Chun and sizing him up a few times, he eventually chose not to take the risk of pursuing. Instead, he replied with a scornful laugh, "Would this old man be afraid of you, youngster? Next time I encounter you, I will certainly take your wretched life!"

Saying this, he also retreated to where his army was regrouping.

In truth, although his cultivation level was higher than Zhou Chun's by a small stage and his mana much deeper, due to the intense combat that had lasted until this point, and facing the attack of Zhou Chun and his servants, his own mana was now nearly depleted.
