Hearing faint screams coming from inside Mirror City, Zhang Yuhe felt something was amiss.
This is completely illogical.
How could family members fight each other?
He was very puzzled, which is why he asked Li Tian.
Li Tian replied calmly.
"Junior brother, you forgot, besides the cultivators, there is also a Horned Demon in the city."
"Uh, senior brother, you mean that the Horned Demon is slaughtering the cultivators from the He and Li families in the city?"
"Slaughter? Perhaps it would be more accurate to describe it as eating."
"Cannibalism?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuhe was greatly shocked.
Although ancient texts record that demons sometimes do eat people, especially powerful cultivators, who are their favorites.
He had always thought that this was for propaganda purposes, to spread the evil of the demon race and incite hatred towards the demon race among the Yu Fantian cultivators.
To my surprise, it actually happened.
Zhang Yuhe couldn't believe that, apart from having a few extra parts, demons looked almost exactly like humans.
In his view, the difference between demons and humans was nothing more than the difference between white and black people.
How could they possibly eat people?
That's terrifying.
Li Tian glanced at Zhang Yuhe, knowing he was having trouble understanding, and then explained.
"The horned demons on the altar need to consume a lot of magic power to open the interface passage, and human cultivators are the best tonic for the demons. It would be strange if they didn't take advantage of them."
After listening to Li Tian's explanation, Zhang Yuhe finally understood the gist of it.
The horned demons on the altar sensed that their magic power was about to run out, so they took the cultivators from the He and Li families in the city as supplies.
After all, the demons had been trapped in Yu Fan Tian for 100,000 years, and all their supplies had long been exhausted.
If the horned demons on the altar wanted to replenish their magic power, they could only target the cultivators from the He and Li families within the city.
Moreover, Zhang Yuhe now understands that the demon race and the human race belong to different races.
Just like humans and cattle/sheep.
Humans might find it normal to eat beef and mutton, but beef and mutton would definitely find it hard to accept.
Similarly, upon hearing the screams coming from inside the city, Zhang Yuhe felt a chill run down his spine.
"No, we need to speed things up."
Thinking of this, Zhang Yuhe made a hand seal, and the nine flying swords beside him quickly flew into the distance, landing in all directions around Mirror Sky City.
"Junior brother, what are you doing?"
Seeing Zhang Yuhe's actions, Li Tian asked with some surprise.
Why not just use direct lightning to slowly attack?
In any case, the defensive formation of Mirror City is about to be breached.
"I want to speed things up."
Li Tian was speechless upon hearing Zhang Yuhe's answer.
Why bother?
The Nine Pythons Spirit-Binding Array has extremely strong defensive capabilities, and it would take them a great deal of time to break through it using their own strength.
Since Zhang Yuhe has set up the Gui Water Lightning-Attracting Formation, why not just use the formation to break it?
Why bother doing it yourself?
It was a complete waste of effort.
Li Tian had tried it before; punching Mirror City's defenses was like tickling it.
They couldn't damage them at all.
However, he did not object to Zhang Yuhe's decision to make a move, and Li Tian also threw a punch at Jing Kong.
He felt that Zhang Yuhe was right about one thing.
It would be good to speed things up a bit and resolve the issue sooner to avoid any unforeseen complications.
boom……
Li Tian punched the light screen above Mirror City repeatedly, but Zhang Yuhe ignored him.
Once the nine flying swords were in place, he quickly began to perform hand seals.
"Sword formation, activate."
Outside Mirror Sky City, a large area of sword light suddenly lit up, and the sword light transformed into invisible sword energy, which quickly swept across the light screen.
"this……"
Seeing this scene, Li Tian was completely stunned.
"What kind of supernatural power is this? It's too strong!"
How could a sword formation set up by a Nascent Soul cultivator have such a large range?
The entire Mirror City was enveloped in the sword formation.
The Nine Heavens Primordial Sword Formation combines offense and defense. As for the control range of the sword formation...?
It can be said to have no upper limit.
As long as Zhang Yuhe has enough magical power and is within the range of his divine sense control, it will be fine.
Mirror City wasn't a large city; with his late-stage Nascent Soul divine sense, he could completely cover it.
As for the legal authority, there's even less to worry about.
Zhang Yuhe's dantian, as vast as the ocean, was sufficient to supply his energy needs.
Of course.
The larger the range of the sword formation, the lower the density of the invisible sword energy attacks will be.
But it's okay.
Even with the reduction, a large amount of invisible sword energy still swept across the light barrier above Mirror City.
Seeing the effect of the sword formation, Li Tian awkwardly withdrew his fist and stepped aside.
That's a bit embarrassing.
Compared to Zhang Yuhe, he felt like a younger brother.
His attacks were indeed a waste of effort, but the invisible sword energy swept out by the sword formation controlled by Zhang Yuhe was remarkably effective.
As the invisible sword energy continued to sweep across the light screen, the defensive array of Mirror Sky City was finally about to collapse.
boom……
After a bolt of lightning struck, the light screen above Mirror City exploded instantly.
With the defensive formation gone, the scene inside the city was fully revealed to the two of them.
The city was filled with boundless demonic energy and a pungent smell of blood.
Zhang Yuhe frowned slightly. He looked up at the sky and saw a huge vortex appearing there.
On the other side of the vortex, one could even vaguely see countless demonic shadows surging about.
"Has the passage already been opened?"
Zhang Yuhe had never seen such a scene before, and he was about to ask Li Tian about it.
However, when he turned around, he found that Li Tian had already swung his fist and pounced on the horned demon on the altar.
"Senior Brother is truly brave."
Zhang Yuhe praised silently.
Before he could finish praising him, almost instantly, Li Tian was sent flying backward, coughing up blood, like a tattered sack, struck by the Horned Demon.
Even as Li Tian continued to retreat, he didn't forget to remind him.
"Junior brother, be careful, this is a demon in the Void Refinement Realm."
"Holy crap."
Zhang Yuhe was shocked. How could a demon in the Void Refinement Realm appear?
The Void Refinement Realm is a huge threshold for cultivators; those who can reach it are one in a billion.
Compared to Nascent Soul cultivators, the power of Void Refinement cultivators is completely unimaginable.
Otherwise, why would one automatically become a sect elder in the Dao Saint Sect once they reach the Refinement Void Realm?
The difference in strength between the two is immeasurable.
Normally speaking, even if a cultivator at the Refinement Void Realm faces ten Nascent Soul Realm cultivators at the same time, it's like beating a son; they can easily beat them up.
There are only two people here, and both of them are only at the Nascent Soul stage.
How do we fight this?
However, Zhang Yuhe did not run away.
Although demons at the Void Refinement Realm are certainly very strong, he had already set up a large formation here.
Not only does it have the Nine Heavens Primordial Sword Formation, but it also has the Gui Water Lightning-Attracting Formation.
With these two powerful formations, they are fully capable of putting up a fight.
Moreover, even if I wanted to run now, I might not be able to escape, even though the Heavenly Desolate Flying Immortal Technique has an extremely fast escape speed.
However, even against a Horned Demon at the Refinement Realm, it's not certain that they can outrun him.
Since that's the case, let's just go for it.
