Chapter 1081: Opportunity

Roar! Roar!

In the demon lair, the roars of demon fiends resounded one after another.

A terrifying presence threaded through the nodes of time and space, seeping into the lair.

The demon fiend’s will and the demonic energy engulfing the entire lair began to boil, leaving all cultivators with an unspeakable oppression.

“Things are looking bleak!”

Lin Zheyu lifted his head, gazing toward the city’s exterior with a heavy look in his eyes.

He perceived that the city defenses had activated, with terrifying demon presence swirling in the dark void.

Lin Zheyu sensed a stifling oppression akin to the prelude of an apocalyptic storm.

Boom!

A deafening explosion echoed from the node’s fissure, as terrifying energy ripples emerged from it.

Lin Zheyu quickly manipulated the array to deflect these terrifying, evil, and filthy energies.

Meanwhile, Mo Qingyang and his group had already fled from the node’s fissure without looking back.

They were in poor condition, ill-suited for further combat.

“Hehe, a chance has arrived!”

Before leaving, Si Tianyun sneered in Lin Zheyu’s direction, then flickered disappearing into the darkness.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

Soon after.

The node’s fissure erupted with the deafening roars of demon fiends.

Massive, terrifying, monstrous demon fiends snarled as they charged out from the node’s fissure.

Outside the node’s fissure, there lay a sealing array.

But under the corrosive impact of the powerful energy ripples and the vast demonic energy, the array had already been breached.

Whoosh!!!

The moment the sealing array broke, a scorching breeze swept in from all around.

Lin Zheyu and Zong Linjing controlled the array hub, pouring vast energy into the array, using energy as a catalyst to ignite the array’s energy pool, activating the Heaven-Burning Array.

Instantly.

The dark void was set ablaze with fiery flames of destruction, rapidly elevating the temperature of the entire void.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

Demon fiends stormed from the node’s fissure into this fiery world, emitting wretched cries.

In the Demon Realm, only a few demon fiends were unafraid of blazing flames like the Purple Fire Qilin Demon Fiend.

Most demon fiends feared terrifying high temperatures and extremely pure energy.

However, the Heaven-Burning Array wasn’t the ultimate move against demon fiends; it was merely used to suppress their abundant lifeforce and affect their states.

The true ultimate move was…

Swish! Swish! Swish—

Suddenly, the rush of the wind was heard, as sword shadows formed from green energy coalesced in the void, their numbers filling it entirely.

Lin Zheyu’s eyes narrowed, his potent perception spreading widely.

Under his control, dense longswords swooshed towards the demon fiends, slicing them into chunks of writhing demon flesh.

At the same time.

Array after array lit up.

Cultivators controlling the second and third array lines also manipulated the arrays, joining the slaughter of demon fiends.

Boom!!

Rumble!

The node’s fissure persistently echoed with booming sounds, as demonic energy in the air escalated.

Even martial artists with strong resistance to demonic energy found it hard to endure fighting amidst such dense demonic energy.

Zong Linjing furrowed her brows lightly, a hint of brutality flickered in her eyes, but she suppressed it in an instant.

As for Lin Zheyu.

Facing the extreme density of demonic energy, he seemed unfazed, as golden energy surged within him, blocking the relentless demonic energy trying to invade his body.

However, to avoid appearing overly exceptional.

Lin Zheyu used the Martial Arts Divine Pattern to absorb demonic energy, feigning the appearance of being eroded by it.

Roar!

Suddenly, a terrifying roar rang out.

A hundred-meter-long demon fiend, entirely black with grotesque lumps like a black dragon, charged out from the node’s fissure.

“Seven-Striped Demon Fiend!”

“Even such terrifying demon fiends have emerged!”

Lin Zheyu’s eyes tensed slightly, but he wasn’t overly concerned.

He was amidst the array, sheltered by it; unless the array was broken, there was no significant danger.

Of course.

For Zong Linjing and others, there was still danger; they needed to withstand the invasion of demon fiend’s will and demonic energy.

The first array line, closest to the node’s fissure, faced incredibly high levels of demonic energy and demon fiend’s will.

Normal cultivators couldn’t linger here for long.

Only martial artists with powerful resistance to demonic energy and demon fiend’s will could guard this array hub.

Bang Bang!

Boom Boom Boom!

Terrifying booms resonated.

The dragon-like demon fiend rampaged within the array, leveraging its formidable defense and terrifying recovery power, constantly crashing its huge body towards the array.

“Haha, this time we’ve encountered an intelligent demon fiend.”

“Hehe, perfect opportunity!”

Si Tianyun, hidden outside the array, spotted the dragon demon fiend’s appearance, a slight smile crept on his lips.

He formed a secret technique with his right hand, and dozens of chilling flames merged into the array.

Using the Heaven-Burning Array as cover, these chilling flames seemed too insignificant to have any effect whatsoever.

Si Tianyun dared not make any conspicuous moves.

Nor did he have the ability.

But using Nether Ice Flame to entice demon fiends to attack Lin Zheyu’s location was entirely feasible.
