Chapter 665: Chapter 391 Ambush! Battle!

Taixuan Divine Mountain.

Heavenly Mechanism Flag defense line, extending a hundred miles forward.

This mountain peak stands at this spot.

Around the mountain peak lie the skeletal remains of the Four Great Demon Kings.

Even though the Demon Kings surpass ordinary tiers and have fallen, their overwhelming presence still lingers.

Amidst the vast, eerie Deceit Night, innumerable evil demons abound, seemingly endless in number. Among them, the majority consist of minor demons and wandering spirits.

Faced with the aura emitted by beings that exceed ordinary tiers, these lesser demons and wandering spirits dare not approach.

Even those infamous entities who have awakened spiritual wisdom cannot repress the instinctive fear caused by the presence of such transcendent Demon Kings.

"As long as the remnants of these Four Demon Kings remain here, and their aura does not dissipate, a significant amount of evil demons will be warded off... With the formation deliberately sustaining this state, their influence will persist for at least three to five years!"

Xiao Li, standing atop the mountain peak, remarked with a sigh, "Only those equal to Refining God Realm demons can suppress their fear and attack this mountain. As for entities that have surpassed ordinary tiers, fear is naturally irrelevant."

Behind him, the strong human martial masters from the Holy Alliance revealed expressions of amazement.

"Hearing pales before seeing."

"No matter how astonishing and unprecedented the Saint Master’s exploits sound, it’s still hearsay."

"Only by witnessing the skeletal remains of the Four Great Demon Kings and the overwhelming pressure emanating from them upfront can one truly grasp the awe-inspiring reality."

At this moment, thinking back to the scrutiny and doubt directed toward the Saint Master earlier in the day, feelings of shame crept into their hearts.

"Defending this mountain peak doesn’t require a large force."

Xiao Li stated slowly, "Only the fiercest, most evil entities, and perhaps those surpassing ordinary tiers, can withstand the Four Demon Kings’ lingering presence to attack this mountain."

He turned his head and remarked, "The Saint Master is truly brilliant. Leaving the remains of the Four Demon Kings here has essentially transformed this mountain peak into a ’unique’ Pure Land."

Behind him, a strong martial artist at Refining God Realm shook his head and said, "The Taixuan Garrison, tasked with defending the Thirty-Six Heavenly Mechanism Flags, is already stretched thin... In my opinion, against the ferocious assaults from the Demon Domain, the defense line ought to be pulled back. Yet, it was deliberately pushed forward by a hundred miles, expanding the defense perimeter—a decision that doesn’t seem very wise."

Another Refining God Realm martial artist nodded and said, "Brother Wang’s words ring true. This mountain peak is a hundred miles ahead of support and left utterly isolated. Were it not for our arrival, they couldn’t possibly hold this mountain."

"Do not forget, had we not come, the Saint Master himself would have stayed to guard this place tonight."

Xiao Li said faintly, "Since he was capable of seizing this land during Deceit Night, naturally, he’s capable of defending it."

The Refining God Realm martial artist surnamed Wang shook his head and replied, "Not necessarily. The Demon Domain is practically driven mad by their desire to kill the Saint Master!"

"Should the Saint Master personally hold this spot, the entirety of the Demon Domain’s high-ranking forces would come hunting for him!"

"The Taixuan Garrison, stationed a hundred miles behind, wouldn’t possibly arrive in time to save him!"

"And besides, the Great Saint of Beishan has awakened. That Kui Bull... it’s likely coming for the Saint Master!"

"Add to that the various Demon Kings and Evil Venerables, even if the Saint Master is a Human Martial Saint, he still wouldn’t be able to endure!"

"Besides, even though we are not the Saint Master, staying atop this mountain is dangerous enough, Xiao brother... Do you truly have the confidence?"

Everyone turned their gazes toward Xiao Li standing ahead.

Xiao Li’s expression remained unchanged; he let out a light laugh and said, "If we wish to welcome the Saint Master into our Holy Alliance, we must display some skill... Otherwise, why would the Saint Master take us for anything other than mere idle sycophants? Why would he agree to join our Holy Alliance?"

Looking ahead, he spoke slowly, "The concern I harbor is not for the arrival of the Great Saint of Beishan. My fear is... that all we might get in the end is just a single Taiyin Thunder Envoy, which would fail to showcase the majesty of our Holy Alliance!"

As his voice dropped, a surge of aura erupted from him.

The people behind him formed into groups, each unleashing their power, channeling it into Xiao Li.

Thirteen Evil Gods Tai Sui Formation!

Passed on from ancient times, originating from the Old Gods, it is one of the Great Formations of the Holy Alliance!

In the next moment, Xiao Li raised his hand, revealing a flag fluttering in the air!

Flames soared into the sky, igniting half the celestial dome.

The fiery glow saturated the Deceit Night, forcing evil entities into retreat.

From the distance ahead, thunder began to rumble.

An immense being appeared at the edge of the horizon!

Its form resembled a bull, lightning entwined around its body, a single thick leg beneath its belly, towering to the heavens!

"Holy Alliance Commander Xiao Li, disciple of True Master Dongxu, has assembled the Thirteen Evil Gods Tai Sui Formation, bearing the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Flag, waiting for a long time!"

——

At the location of the Heavenly Kui Flag defense line.

"It has come, as expected."

Mr. Lu’s expression turned grave as he said, "The Great Saint of Beishan, carrying the blood of an Ancient Divine Beast, stands far beyond ordinary demons! It commands the Beishan Holy Land and rivals even the Saint Master at his prime strength..."

"Stronger than me by far!"

The Great Banner Master, his face stern, said, "I am at the peak of the Creation tier as a God Lord, wielding the Heavenly Kui Flag, no weaker than a Taiyin Thunder Envoy... Yet, compared to the Great Saint of Beishan, I fall several levels behind!"

He murmured, "Were it not for the people from the Holy Alliance, tonight I might have to activate the Great Cycle Purple Star Formation."

"The Great Saint of Beishan is more clever than you expected. Its approach is merely exploratory—it hasn’t come for a decisive battle."

Mr. Lu stated, "Should you mobilize Taixuan Divine Mountain’s Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang and Seventy-Two Earth Evil to initiate the Great Cycle Purple Star Formation... before the formation is activated, it will retreat!"

"By tomorrow night, our Taixuan Garrison will be completely exhausted from initializing the formation, unable to deploy it again. That’s when it will return in full force!"

"Tonight, let’s see what methods the Holy Alliance has!"

With that, Mr. Lu’s expression grew heavy as he said, "From the looks of it, the Holy Alliance’s methods are far more formidable than I initially anticipated."

The Great Banner Master frowned and said, "Xiao Li’s flag seems slightly stronger than my Heavenly Kui Flag—is it of a higher tier, perhaps an Ancient Divine Object?"

"No! That flag and the Heavenly Kui Flag belong to the same tier, but a Human Martial Saint has already infused it full of mana!"
