Chapter 2169 - 2154: Seventh Prince Cong Yun’s Perilous Situation

Chapter 2169: Chapter 2154: Seventh Prince Cong Yun’s Perilous Situation

The two Dao Realm observers, no matter how they looked, couldn’t discern the reality, but since the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, was still here, they dared not leave this piece of void.

They had to prepare for the distant strange fluctuations that puzzled them by dividing their attention.

In fact, the strange fluctuations that puzzled these two Dao Realm inspectors sent by the Sect of the Demon Emperor were merely the vibrations caused by Achou, the Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit, when activating the power of the Ancient Mirage Dragon.

Achou, the Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit, used the mirage energy to lay down a vast illusion at the perimeter of the battlefield.

No matter how intense the battle inside was, passersby outside, even those in the Dao Realm, couldn’t see through it.

This wasn’t due to Ye Zhen being cautious, but because the Yidongqing Divine Tree Guardian Corps was different.

The Water Demon Army of the Great Saint of Jinghai could still be explained. Ye Zhen, as the Earl of North Sea, subjugating some Water Demons of the North Sea was considered normal.

But the Yidongqing Divine Tree Guardian Corps Divine Guard Team that Ye Zhen brought was extremely sensitive.

The ongoing conflicts between Yizhi Sand Sea and the Great Zhou border were tolerable, with Ye Zhen acting as a buffer, the appearance of the Yidongqing Divine Tree Guardian Corps could be overlooked by the Great Zhou as assistance in battle.

Except for making Ye Zhen more conspicuous, it posed no greater obstacle.

However, the Heavenly Temple!

Heavenly Temple and the Yizhi Temple of Yizhi Sand Sea were mortal enemies!

Generation after generation of mortal enemies!

Enemies who wouldn’t rest unless they waged a relentless religious war!

If the news of the Yidongqing Divine Tree Guardian Corps appearing beside Ye Zhen reached the ears of the Heavenly Temple, it could instantly lead to immense trouble and endless complications for Ye Zhen.

Therefore, the moment Ye Zhen released the Yidongqing Divine Tree Guardian Corps, he had Achou, the Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit, set up the illusion for cover.

Back when Ye Zhen received the auxiliary defense order from the Military Department, he sent a message to the Yizhi Temple, asking several Dao Realm experts like Zhang Yide, Qinglian, and Chief Manager Huang Tuo to come for critical strikes and self-preservation.

Ye Zhen’s requirement was merely for a few Dao Realm experts, as he lacked top-tier Dao Realm combat power on his side.

However, when the Grand Divine Sacrifice Nahar of Yizhi Temple heard about it, he disagreed.

He believed that as a Divine Envoy of Yizhi Temple, Ye Zhen’s safety was above everything and couldn’t be underestimated.

He directly sent the already assembled Yidongqing Divine Tree Guardian Corps over to Ye Zhen, having them secretly infiltrate and reach Ye Zhen’s side in batches to protect him.

It’s worth noting that while the Yidongqing Divine Tree Guardian Corps didn’t have a large number of members, it still counted ten thousand.

Moreover, the selection criteria were extremely strict, with the First Stage of Divine Communication Realm as the minimum requirement, and all leaders were prioritized from Ye Zhen’s fanatical followers.

In terms of loyalty, there was absolutely no issue.

Once assembled, there were twelve Dao Realm experts, fifteen hundred Realm King Realm, eighty-five hundred Dark Palace Realm, and ninety thousand Divine Communication Realm — an incredibly formidable lineup.

The decision of Grand Divine Sacrifice Nahar terrified Ye Zhen.

Having such a powerful force appear beside Ye Zhen wasn’t merely eye-catching; it was taboo.

Privately associating with a foreign clan and secretly amassing private troops were serious felonies in Great Zhou.

Especially as the people of the Sha Clan from Yizhi Sand Sea had distinct accents and peculiar appearance traits.

Therefore, Ye Zhen firmly refused.

However, the Grand Divine Sacrifice Nahar was equally firm, claiming that the Human Demon Battlefield was extremely perilous and that only a few Dao Realm experts would not suffice.

Looking back, perhaps the Grand Divine Sacrifice Nahar foresaw something through various secret techniques, hence his insistence.

In the end, due to the insistence of Grand Divine Sacrifice Nahar, a thousand Realm King Realm and ten Dao Realm experts were secretly sent to Ye Zhen’s side.

To protect Ye Zhen and serve as a critical killing move when necessary.

The moment they appeared, the members belonging to the Yidongqing Guardian Corps Divine Guard Team promptly saluted Ye Zhen devoutly.

"The glory of the Heavenly God needs your protection, go and slaughter all the Demon Clan before you!"

With Ye Zhen’s command, the Sha Clan Divine Sacrifice and Divine Guards, chanting the deity name of the Yizhi Sand Sea Sky God or the name of Divine Envoy Ye Zhen, charged like fierce tigers at the Demon Emperor Battle Puppets.

With the dry, desolate, and sharp aura of spiritual power, they swiftly swept in all directions.

Upon witnessing this scene, the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, changed his expression but remained resolute, "So what if they have a thousand at the Realm King Realm?"

"The Demon Emperor Battle Puppets, reputed as the strongest, most outstanding in both offense and defense among war puppets in this world, are incredibly sought after even within our clan, for a reason!"

While speaking, over ten drops of golden viscous bloodshot from the fingertips of the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun. As they shot out, they split into over seventy portions, evenly entering the seventy-one Demon Emperor Battle Puppets.

In an instant, the spiritual power emanating from these seventy-one Demon Emperor Battle Puppets grew twofold stronger.

This was a secret technique from the Demon Emperor Lineage to stimulate the power of the Demon Emperor Battle Puppets using their own essence blood.

"The Demon Emperor Battle Puppets of this Crown Prince, this one troop at the Realm King Realm, cannot withstand..."

But before he could finish his sentence, the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, was shocked to see a Demon Emperor Battle Puppet being directly cleaved into pieces under the joint attack of four Realm King Realm Divine Guards.

"This... this is impossible!"

"Nothing is impossible!"

Ye Zhen’s voice timely resonated, "The Demon Emperor Battle Puppets are strong, but they are, ultimately, just war puppets, devoid of spirit wisdom, retaining only combat instinct, inferior to humans.

Moreover, although the Demon Emperor Battle Puppets are indeed formidable, they encountered the most powerful warriors at this level of cultivation in the world!"

Ye Zhen’s remark filled the members of the battling Yidongqing Guardian Corps Divine Guard Team with pride!

Divine Envoy Ye Zhen’s words were true; every warrior of the Yizhi Sand Sea was the strongest in combat power among the same level of cultivation.

Equipped with incredibly rudimentary, even primitive gear, each warrior of the Yizhi Sand Sea could match the well-equipped, almost armed-to-the-teeth elite forces of Great Zhou.

Fighting bravely like wild beasts, fearless and unstoppable.

And once they became the members of Ye Zhen’s Yidongqing Divine Tree Guardian Corps, especially those early-arrival Divine Guard Team members by Ye Zhen’s side, they upgraded their gear significantly.

Before, with just rudimentary bone blades, spears, and wooden shields, they could match the well-equipped elite forces of Great Zhou.

Now, with the excellent equipment provided by Ye Zhen, they fought like tigers with wings, with their combat power multiplying.

Previously they were fierce tigers; now they’re frenzied ones!

One-on-one they couldn’t overpower the bloodline-rich Demon Emperor Battle Puppets, but when several teamed up to fight one, defeating these battle puppets became very easy.

A thousand Divine Guards against seventy-one Demon Emperor Battle Puppets, with ten Dao Realm experts reinforcing, within just a few breaths, left the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, wide-eyed, feeling a heartache so severe it almost made him spit blood!

Seventy-one Demon Emperor Battle Puppets were annihilated within just a few breaths!

It’s known that prior to this, a hundred Demon Emperor Battle Puppets on the Human Demon Battlefield once effortlessly pierced a Great Zhou elite army composed of a thousand Realm King Realms, five thousand Dark Palace Realms, and forty thousand Divine Communication Realms.

From this record, you can understand the confidence in the Demon Emperor Battle Puppets.

Of course, a key reason behind this achievement is the fearless nature of the Demon Emperor Battle Puppets.

An enemy still roaring in battle with half its brain sliced off would panic the bravest of warriors.

But today, the Demon Emperor Battle Puppets encountered equally fierce, fearless, tiger-like Sha Clan warriors, who were more intelligent and cooperative, hence this record.

Watching this scene, Ye Zhen felt nothing. A thousand against seventy; total annihilation was quite normal?

Perfectly normal.

However, the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, was utterly shocked, momentarily stunned.

The Seventh Crown Prince, Congyun’s daze was no problem, but to his subordinates, and the two Dao Realm observers sent by the Demon Emperor Sect, the situation seemed extremely unpromising.

At this moment, the Seventh Crown Prince, Congyun, was in an incredibly dangerous position!
