As time went by, the Demon Gathering Array gradually took shape.
The lower-level demons and immortals fighting below all stood motionless. The rune array frantically absorbed the demonic energy, and one by one, the demons and beasts turned to ashes in the blink of an eye.
The demon general then realized something was wrong.
"What kind of magic is this? How can it have such power?" the leading demon general exclaimed, and before the other demon generals could answer, he leaped into the air. "All generals, heed my command! Kill that mid-level god!"
"yes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the demon generals stood up and flew towards Chu Wanwan.
Upon seeing this, Chu Wanwan turned and ran, shouting, "Qin Yao, it's your turn!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Yao channeled her life force into the great formation. The continuous flow of life force into the demonic energy instantly purified the dense, ink-like demonic energy into pure spiritual energy.
Then, spiritual energy surged into Qin Yao's body. Qin Yao felt pure and gentle spiritual energy constantly nourishing her body, making her feel more comfortable than ever before.
She could clearly feel her power constantly increasing, and the barriers between her realms were gradually loosening under the impact of this powerful spiritual energy.
Qin Yao was overjoyed, knowing this was an excellent opportunity. She focused even more intently on channeling her life force into the Demon Gathering Array, while simultaneously guiding her spiritual energy to circulate within her body, accelerating her breakthrough process.
Meanwhile, Chu Wanwan was desperately trying to evade the pursuit of one Upper Demon Realm cultivator, two Middle Demon Realm cultivators, and five Initial Demon Realm cultivators.
She used the terrain and space to constantly maneuver against her opponents, her goal being to prevent those demon generals from returning to fight the immortals and humans, while waiting for Long Jiu to receive the news and come to rescue her.
With a deafening roar, a towering mountain was instantly leveled. Before the smoke cleared, Chu Wanwan patted her chest and continued running forward.
"Boom!" With another loud sound, the power of the demon smashed a large hole in the ground, and a small figure crawled out of the hole, covered in dust, and continued to run.
In this life-or-death chase, Chu Wanwan's resolve only grew stronger. She knew she couldn't stop; if she did, not only would her own life be in danger, but both the immortal and human races would be plunged into peril.
She continuously used talismanic arts in an attempt to disrupt the demon generals' pursuit.
Beams of light flew from her hands, some turning into mist, others into barriers, but they could only temporarily hinder the demon generals for a moment.
The demon general from the Upper Demon Realm was enraged. He roared, "You can't escape! Today I will tear you to pieces!"
Chu Wanwan gritted her teeth, offering no response, and focused solely on fleeing. She saw a dense primeval forest ahead, its ancient trees towering and blocking out the sun.
Chu Wanwan plunged in without hesitation.
A damp scent filled the forest, and sunlight filtered through the leaves, creating dappled patterns of light and shadow. Chu Wanwan weaved through the trees, trying to use the dense foliage to escape the pursuit of the demon generals.
The demon generals chased Chu Wanwan to the edge of the forest, but lost track of her due to the trees. They roared in anger and began to scatter, searching the forest for her.
Chu Wanwan affixed an invisibility talisman and a concealment talisman to herself, then quietly circled behind a demon general. This demon general was a powerful cultivator at the initial demon realm, making him easy for her to deal with.
Chu Wanwan quietly approached the demon general in the initial demon realm, and suddenly thrust her flowing light sword into the demon general's chest.
"ah!"
The demon general let out a scream, his body trembling violently. His eyes widened in disbelief, then he collapsed to the ground, lifeless.
Chu Wanwan quickly drew her Flowing Light Sword and once again hid to the side.
Hearing the commotion, the other demon generals arrived at the spot where Chu Wanwan had just stood in the blink of an eye. They looked at their fallen comrade, filled with rage.
The demon general from the Upper Demon Realm had a terrifyingly gloomy face. He roared, "Search! She must still be nearby!"
The demon generals scattered again, and after Chu Wanwan killed two more demons at the initial demon realm using the same method, the demon leader finally realized something was wrong.
"This woman is very strange. She must have used some method to make us unable to see her. There's a chance she's right next to us. Everyone, be careful!"
"yes!"
"This little wench wiped out our demon army of 100,000 by herself. We absolutely cannot let her live!"
"Yes! Lord Demon Lord, since we can't find her, we might as well give up looking!" a mid-level demon reminded him.
Upon hearing this, the demon leader's lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile: "You're right, why should we go to all that trouble to find her? Wouldn't it be better to just kill her?"
As soon as the demon leader finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the entire primeval forest was enveloped in a black demonic aura. Immediately afterward, the demons took to the air and flew outside the demonic aura barrier.
The demon general waved his hand again, and a stream of black lava, like a waterfall, cascaded down from mid-air, passing through the billowing demonic energy and falling into the primeval forest below.
The trees in the forest vaporized instantly upon contact with the black lava. In just a few moments, the entire primeval forest was reduced to ashes, and the animals within vanished without even a chance to utter a cry.
Knowing the power of the magma, Chu Wanwan dared not touch it and immediately tried to hide in her spatial dimension. However, something surprising happened: she lost contact with the spatial dimension.
She quickly used her divine power to protect herself, and the cyan divine power enveloped her entire body. However, her protective divine power could not completely block the scorching temperature, and she felt a faint stinging sensation on her skin.
"Hehehe... Little girl, you've finally shown yourself! I admit your magic is strange and can inflict devastating damage on our lowly demons! But your personal cultivation is truly pathetic! Stop struggling. My strength is at the Upper Demon Realm, and you, a mere Middle God Realm cultivator, cannot withstand my attacks!"
"Now let's see how my demonic magma roasts this peerless beauty! Hahaha..." As soon as the demon leader finished speaking, he waved his hand, and streams of black and red magma hurtled towards Chu Wanwan.
Chu Wanwan hurriedly tried to dodge, but the dense magma balls left her with no way to avoid them. Many magma balls struck Chu Wanwan's divine power shield, making a hissing sound. The cyan shield shook violently under the impact of the magma, as if it would shatter at any moment.
Chu Wanwan's heart tightened, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, but her eyes remained firm as she used all her divine power to resist the magma ball.
Soon, Chu Wanwan's divine power was exhausted, and blood slowly seeped from the corner of her lips. Her mind became somewhat hazy. The figure of Si Mingye slowly appeared before her eyes, and she reached out towards him, as if trying to grasp that illusory figure. However, Si Mingye's figure gradually blurred before her eyes.
