Chapter 262 Zyrithis Gets Captured
The next ten fireballs that Ye Chen faced were unparalleled in their power, posing an imminent threat to his very existence.
The force behind them was so overwhelming that even his formidable Body Cultivation technique and ability to harness medicinal energy seemed insufficient to withstand the onslaught.
But just as Wang Jian had predicted, the World’s Essence intervened right before disaster struck.
Ye Chen’s body was suddenly engulfed in a massive surge of Demonic Qi, far surpassing the power of Wang Jian’s ten fireballs infused with a King Realm expert’s intensity.
This Demonic Qi was no ordinary force; it seemed to carry the essence of an Emperor Realm expert.
Wang Jian turned his gaze and saw two Devil Emperors at Ye Chen’s side—one from the Nether Curseweaver Devil Clan and the other from the Oceanic Tempest Storm Devil Clan.
Using his True Eyes, Wang Jian checked Ye Chen’s luck. The initial value of 250,000 had been significantly reduced to 200,000.
This meant that the World’s Essence had expended a substantial amount of Ye Chen’s luck to save him this time.
The situation was favorable for Wang Jian.
Ye Chen’s luck was now within a range where Wang Jian could potentially end his life in their next encounter.
“Who are you, human? How dare you try to kill the sole Inheritor of the Oceanic Tempest Storm Devil Clan! You are going to pay for that!” The Devil Emperor from the Oceanic Tempest Storm Devil Clan bellowed in rage, his imposing presence causing the battlefield to shudder.
Meanwhile, the Devil Emperor belonging to the Nether Curseweaver Devil Clan observed Wang Jian’s domain with keen interest. He was genuinely surprised to see a human who had gained insight into a domain and conjured such a refined one. This hinted at the human’s extraordinary talent and affiliation with a powerful human force.
Ye Chen wasted no time in providing crucial information, “He is Wang Jian, the Seventh Prince of the Empire. He is the one who foiled our plans by dealing with the Third Prince! Capturing him will help us regain control over a significant part of the battlefield.”
“The Seventh Prince?!” Both Devil Emperors were taken aback by the revelation. Excitement soon replaced their astonishment. If they could capture Wang Jian, their contribution to the war against the humans would be immense.
Deep in thought, Wang Jian pondered his options. Confronting two Devil Emperors with only his King Realm cultivation and Domain wouldn’t be enough to secure victory.
Revealing his Emperor Realm cultivation was also out of the question, given the numerous demons keeping a watchful eye on the battlefield. Slaughtering them all would be impractical.
Escape was his best bet.
As the Devil Emperors closed in, Wang Jian swiftly activated his Spatial Movement infused with medium-level insights in the Laws of Space, instantly vanishing from their grasp.
His range was vast enough to safely transport him to the other side of the barrier, beyond the Devil Emperors’ reach.
As Wang Jian evaded their clutches, both Devil Emperors were taken aback by his unexpected skill in Spatial Element.
If they had been aware of this ability, they could have utilized their own insights in Laws to suppress the Laws of Space, preventing Wang Jian from slipping away.
“Well, there’s no medicine for regret,” one of the Devil Emperors grumbled, realizing their missed opportunity.
Recovering from their initial surprise, the Devil Emperors turned their attention to Ye Chen, eager to hear the details of the intense battle with Wang Jian.
Ye Chen candidly recounted the thrilling events, leaving no detail untold.
Upon learning that their clan’s heiress, Zyrithia, was on the other side of the barrier, the Devil Emperor from the Nether Curseweaver Devil Clan couldn’t help but feel anxious for her safety.
However, his worry soon subsided as he discovered that Zyrithia was accompanied by three powerful Devil Emperors, while Wang Jian’s faction seemed to have only two Emperor Realm experts. The odds appeared to be in their favor, and he sighed with relief.
Unbeknownst to the Devil Emperor, his worry for Zyrithia’s safety was not entirely unfounded.
As Wang Jian returned to his faction’s side, he cunningly concealed his identity by donning a mask and a black robe.
This was the attire of the mysterious Emperor Realm expert of his faction.
With a sinister smile adorning his face, Wang Jian emerged from the shadows, ready to take on the Devil Emperors confronting Yue Yanling and the Grand Elder Yi of the Lotus Blossom Sect.
The battlefield pulsed with tension as Wang Jian’s true prowess came into play.
With a surge of power, Wang Jian expanded his domain, unleashing the full force of the Scorching Solar Incineration Domain. .
The three Devil Emperors stood no chance against the combined might of Wang Jian, Yue Yanling, and Grand Elder Yi.
In a swift and decisive battle, the Devil Emperors were mercilessly vanquished, leaving no room for escape or surrender.
With the Devil Emperors dealt with, Wang Jian’s faction turned their attention to the horde of devils that had charged at the barrier.
The battlefield was a chaotic whirlwind of clashes and powers, but Wang Jian’s harem members proved to be formidable adversaries, led by Chen Yiyan and Stella.
They held their own against Zyrithia, the Clan Heiress of the Nether Curseweaver Devil Clan, while the rest of the women in Wang Jian’s harem took on Zyrithia’s comrades.
As Wang Jian joined the fray after defeating the Devil Emperors, the tables turned in favor of his faction. The devils were swiftly overpowered and, one by one, captured.
Zyrithia and her comrades stood no chance against the combined strength of Wang Jian’s forces.
In the midst of the battle, the Ancestral Curseweaver Nether Scythe, a powerful artifact held by Zyrithia, was wrested from her grasp, and safely stored in Wang Jian’s Spatial Ring.
The battlefield now lay silent, the victory belonging to Wang Jian and his faction.
As the battlefield fell momentarily silent, Wang Jian’s mind raced with anticipation. He knew that the devils wouldn’t stay passive for long. With the capture of Zyrithia, the Clan Heiress of the Nether Curseweaver Devil Clan, he expected a fierce counterattack from their ranks, and he couldn’t allow them to save her so easily.
Determined to thwart their plans, Wang Jian quickly devised a countermeasure. He sent a messenger to the Crown Prince’s and the Second Princess’s factions, requesting immediate reinforcement.
The messenger explained the dire situation at hand. Zyrithia, the esteemed Clan Heiress of the Nether Curseweaver Devil Clan, had been captured by Wang Jian’s forces. This act was bound to enrage the devils, and they would surely mobilize their strongest fighters to reclaim their heiress.
Wang Jian’s message urged the Crown Prince’s and Second Princess’s factions to send their most skilled and powerful experts to bolster his side of the battlefield immediately. With their combined forces, they could mount a formidable defense against the impending devil onslaught.
Instead of simply sending a letter, he dispatched a messenger to deliver his urgent message directly to the factions of the Crown Prince and the Second Princess. The messenger ensured that the news of Zyrithia’s capture and the impending devil attack reached not just the Crown Prince or the Second Princess but also the ears of many within their factions.
With the gravity of the situation at hand, the factions were left with no choice but to act swiftly. Refusing to respond to Wang Jian’s plea for aid would risk angering the Emperor, a consequence they could ill afford. Thus, they were compelled to mobilize their forces and send reinforcements to bolster Wang Jian’s faction.
The night arrived, shrouding the battlefield in darkness. Like a torrential flood, hundreds, if not thousands, of devil forces surged forth, breaching the barrier from Wang Jian’s side. It was a full-scale attack, a relentless assault aimed at reclaiming Zyrithia.
Among the devil forces, some of the most formidable foes were the Human Emperor Realm experts. Their presence added another layer of challenge to the already intense battle.
But Wang Jian and his faction were not alone. The timely arrival of reinforcements from the Crown Prince’s and Second Princess’s factions bolstered their ranks.
The Emperor Realm experts they brought with them turned the tide of the battle, providing a formidable defense against the relentless devil onslaught.
Amidst the chaos of battle, the night sky was illuminated by flashes of brilliant light as powerful techniques and devastating attacks were unleashed.
In a shrewd tactical move, Wang Jian strategically positioned the weaker members of his faction at the backlines or even away from the camp or even away from the immediate vicinity of the camp.
He knew all too well that their participation in this intense battle against the devil forces would be a death sentence.
While the Emperor Realm experts held the fate of the battlefield in their hands, it was Wang Jian himself, alongside his formidable harem of women, who were making the most significant impact in this conflict.
Among his harem, Chen Yiyan, Hong Meilin, and Lady Zhuoran stood out as fierce and skilled combatants against the devil forces.
Naturally, others were also causing great damage to the devil forces, but these three were the ones who were causing the most damage to the devils.
As they fought side by side with Wang Jian, their camaraderie and trust in each other were evident in every move they made.
Their coordinated attacks were nothing short of breathtaking, a synchronized dance of power and grace that left the devil forces reeling.
