Chapter 1018 - Something Seems Wrong
What's Wrong?
At this moment, over ninety percent of the main force of the Frozen Demon Legion had entered the Ancient Array Sacred Gate.
With a tremendous pressure, after confirming the stabilization of the situation on this battlefield, the Elder of the Frozen Demon clan, Molir, finally arrived through the dimensional passage.
"As expected, there's the aura of Nascent Divinity realm experts here, but there's no Nascent Divinity powerhouse present! Moreover, the elites seem to be absent, and the top-tier forces are too scarce. This sect is truly hollow!" Molir's eyes pierced through hundreds of miles in an instant, grasping the details of the entire Ancient Array Sacred Gate.
"Only four and a half Nascent Divinity realms, one with depleted lifespan and unable to fight, died in seclusion! The other two are on their way here, and one just woke up... and then there's one... whose aura is unstable... This is not good!" Molir's expression changed quickly.
As a Seventh Rank demon clan, a true demon clan, the Elder of the Frozen Demon clan only cared about four and a half Nascent Divinity realm figures in the entire Ancient Array domain.
Other existences?
They were just small roles that could be easily eradicated!
However, these four and a half Nascent Divinity realm individuals included one who was practically dead, the other two were non-threatening, but the last one had suddenly lost contact just now, causing spatial fluctuations.
The Nascent Divinity realm had already left this domain, heading to the Upper Realm or the Divine Demon Tower!
What was their purpose?
Clearly, it was to bring reinforcements!
"There used to be a Nascent Divinity powerhouse here... This place was indeed a true Nascent Divinity level force! However, that Nascent Divinity powerhouse is not here now..."
"Could it be that they're with He Yiming in the Divine Demon Tower? But even after the battle between the Flame Yellow Sect and the Divine Demon Tower has gone on for so long, no Nascent Divinity realm figures have appeared!"
...
Molir couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. He reached out and grabbed a cultivator from the Heavenly Elixir realm of the Ancient Array Sacred Gate.
"Where is this realm?"
"Die, damned demon scum... Ahh!"
...
Molir killed the cultivator with a backhand slap without wasting words.
Eliminate the resistors first!
"Disciples of the Ancient Array Sacred Gate! Fight to the end!" At this moment, an upper Nascent Divinity realm figure hurriedly arrived from the Ancient Array Sacred Gate, the Third Elder among the upper echelons, and shouted loudly!
"Nine Transformation Golden Scale Formation!" With a thought, this upper Nascent Divinity realm figure's profound formation intent erupted. In the blink of an eye, nine enormous divine towers appeared and condensed into a boundless kilometer-wide golden formation!
"Suppression!" The Third Elder waved his hand, and the formation descended with a thunderous roar, directly crushing thousands of Frozen Demon clan warriors within several miles, including elite powerhouses with forty to fifty demon marks!
"Roar, roaaar! Mighty Third Elder!"
"The Third Elder has come! The counterattack begins!"
"Attack!"
...
The many elders and disciples of the Ancient Array Sacred Gate, who had been at a significant disadvantage, were excited at the sight of the Third Elder's appearance and began to counterattack with renewed vigor.
"Swoosh!" However, Molir stepped forward and stood before the Third Elder.
"!" Seeing Molir appear, the Third Elder's heart chilled instantly.
Seventy-two demon marks!
True demon bloodline!
The Third Elder knew he was done for.
If these seventy-two demon-marked cultivators were outside the defensive formation, and he controlled the formation, he would still have a fighting chance!
But the Frozen Demon clan suddenly appeared within the Ancient Array Sacred Gate, rendering the defensive formation completely useless. These seventy-two demon-marked individuals were now right in his face...
As a formation master, he knew all too well what fate awaited him when someone got right up in his face.
Yet, the Third Elder didn't waste words either. With the current situation, he couldn't even summon the energy to ask.
The cultivators had already killed tens of thousands of disciples and elders of the Ancient Array Sacred Gate, forging an unbreakable vendetta. As long as one side was left alive, there would be no end!
Any reason for discussion was superfluous.
Even if the demon clan before him were to say: "Sorry, we actually got the wrong place. Can we stop fighting?"
The Third Elder wouldn't believe a single word!
In the world of cultivators, everything was subjective!
One word: kill!
"Old man, Third Elder of the Ancient Array Sacred Gate! Today, I'll fight you to the death!" The Third Elder roared in anger, lifting his hand and unleashing his most powerful killer move!
"?" Molir was taken aback.
The intelligence provided by Molass had stated that this sect claimed to be the Ancient Array Sacred Gate on the surface but was actually the Flame Yellow Sect in secret.
Molir had initially believed this claim, as it was indeed a clever ruse, perfect for concealing their true identity.
However, now, facing the imminent death of the Third Elder, Molir questioned why the Third Elder, who should know he was doomed, still pretended to be from the Ancient Array Sacred Gate before his death.
Could it be...
Molir didn't have time to ponder further. He began a fierce battle with the Third Elder before him.
In the end, a half-step Nascent Divinity realm figure was no weakling. Molir spent dozens of breaths before finally shattering the Third Elder's defensive measures. With a single strike, he pierced through the Third Elder's heart.
"The Patriarch will avenge me..." The Third Elder's voice grew hoarse as he muttered before closing his eyes and falling.
By this time, the Ancient Array Sacred Gate was nearly defeated on all fronts.
"Hmph, a bunch of cowards afraid of death!" Molir's gaze shifted, and he spotted another half-step Nascent Divinity realm cultivator who had just awakened but hadn't come over yet. Evidently, they had sensed his presence and didn't want to come over and die.
At this point, the demon clan had gained an absolute advantage!
However, there was one thing Molir still hadn't figured out.
"This domain is so vast, this sect must have many experts in other areas as well. Why hasn't anyone come to support? And why are there battles happening in other areas... Who? What entity is invading this domain?" Molir suddenly realized something was amiss.
Because this was a local realm, its defensive strength should not have been so feeble!
Since the invasion of his Frozen Demon Legion, only one Nascent Divinity realm figure had appeared, and there were no others!
Molir, at first, had thought it was due to the Flame Yellow Sect's weakness.
But as the battle raged on, Molir had been observing closely.
None of the slain cultivators had used Wood Release techniques, Heavenly Fire, or any abilities characteristic of the Flame Yellow Sect. To put it simply, none of them employed the kind of techniques and skills that were emblematic of the Flame Yellow Sect.
Moreover, Molir could sense
that apart from his demon legion, battles of astounding scale were happening in various regions of this domain—not just one, but hundreds, even thousands.
It was as if there were hundreds of millions of troops, dispersed and attacking this realm.
"Something's off! Is this really the Flame Yellow Sect?" Molir finally realized that something was wrong.
But at that moment...
"Boom, boom, boom!!!" Suddenly, three enormous vortexes appeared in the sky above the Ancient Array Sacred Gate, emitting boundless pressure from three Nascent Divinity realm powerhouses that exploded forth!
In addition, several smaller vortexes quickly formed, each radiating immense pressure, all at the Nascent Divinity realm level!
Nascent Divinity powerhouses were about to arrive on the battlefield!
