Chapter 993: Chapter 764: Fierce and Stalemated Battle

Array formation? What array formation? What kind of formation can be set up here?

The Heavenly Demon showed a look of confusion, unable to comprehend what the other party was up to.

Clearly, there’s not even a single Celestial Human Realm presence, talking about setting up an array here, isn’t this completely ridiculous?

But confusion aside, the Heavenly Demon felt he must act quickly to settle the battle, to prevent any surprises.

With this thought, the Heavenly Demon unleashed his most powerful attack, raising his hand directly towards the city.

A gigantic palm appeared in the sky, slowly descending upon its emergence.

The entire palm covered the entire city.

If this palm landed, the city would instantly turn to ash and smoke.

And as the palm was about to fall, the cultivators all simultaneously invoked the power within themselves.

Immediately, a special force emerged from each of them.

This force was golden, carrying a trembling aura.

The instant this force appeared, it connected all of them.

With this force connecting them together, they surprisingly invoked the power of the Dragon Vein, causing their strengths to leap to a new level.

When their strength achieved a qualitative leap, they unexpectedly directed the Dragon Vein’s power to fiercely attack the giant palm.

"Boom!"

After a terrifying blast echoed, the Heavenly Demon felt a massive pressure sweeping over.

Then, his face was filled with surprise, unable to believe the sight before him.

"This is the power of the Dragon Vein? How can you ordinary cultivators possibly wield the Dragon Vein’s power? This is absolutely impossible!"

He was perplexed because, in his opinion, the opponent’s strength was merely that, for this kind of strength to wield the Dragon Vein’s power, it’s utterly inconceivable.

Yet the opponents indeed invoked the Dragon Vein’s power, a situation that left him astonished.

"Regardless of whether you can invoke it, you are surely doomed!"

Although he went all out just now, the opponents also defended against it, but he noticed some clues.

At the moment the giant palm descended, they seemed to suffer a massive blow, their faces losing some color.

He knew, though the opponents could borrow the Dragon Vein’s power, a crucial premise was that they could withstand his repeated attacks.

Thinking of this, the Heavenly Demon smacked his palm once more.

And the cultivators below the city concentrated the Dragon Vein’s power to attack again, dispersing the Heavenly Demon’s palm once more.

However, after dispersing the palm this time, the faces of the cultivators became even paler, as if enduring endless agony, unable to react for a long time.

Seeing this, the Heavenly Demon let out a cold laugh and said, "Opportunistic tricks are not a long-term plan; you may have invoked the Dragon Vein’s power to oppose me, but that’s all."

"With this level of power, to me, it’s nothing but child’s play."

He calculated that in just half an hour, he could completely annihilate the opponents.

And once annihilating them, he could immediately proceed to the next city and slay them all.

With this thought, the Heavenly Demon launched consecutive strikes, each palm carrying unrivaled might.

And the cultivators below the city bit their teeth, channeling the Dragon Vein’s power to boost themselves, fiercely resisting, repeatedly colliding with the giant palms in the sky.

As time passed, they could feel the pressure growing stronger, and the Dragon Vein’s power they could wield growing weaker.

Due to their not-so-high strengths initially, being able to resist this long was already remarkably well.

If forced to continue, they wouldn’t be able to hold off, for once the Dragon Vein’s power thinned to a certain extent, even dispersed, borrowing the array’s power to resist would ultimately be futile.

Yet each cultivator’s face gleamed with a determined look, none retreated.

For they understood clearly, if they retreated, the Daqian Kingdom would face endless destruction.

Standing behind them were the civilians, who would also be mercilessly slaughtered by these Heavenly Demons.

They couldn’t retreat because behind them were not only those civilians, but also their family, friends, and loved ones.

Therefore, they knew clearly, unless they were dead, there was no way to let the Heavenly Demons step into this world.

With this thought, although the cultivators showed paleness and had reached their limits, they still desperately resisted.

The Heavenly Demon stood in the sky, watching this scene, showing a hint of cold smile.

"Impressive, impressive indeed; your appearance reminds me of those moments when I destroyed a world, where the cultivators facing their world’s ruin had similar expressions."

"They were afraid, they were terrified, but they had no choice but to grit their teeth and persist; it’s this conflicted demeanor that I truly enjoy."

Saying this, he raised his palm again, concentrating his strongest attack, the joy in his eyes gradually replaced by ferocity.

"But what does that matter? No matter how hard you try, you are just sitting ducks, how can ants fight against an elephant? Next, let me enjoy watching you perish in despair!"
