Chapter 136 The High Priest's Illusion
Within the Holy Witch Clan's territory, Feather Fan, who had not yet witnessed an attack from the Fine Demon Clan, had already made a clear judgment.
Ah Chen received an alarm from the academy, and Venerable Yu Sheng also received a request for help from the city lord.
Therefore, this time the Demon Clan should be concentrating its high-end combat power in an attempt to take down Five Elements City in one fell swoop.
"Xiao Bai, take Xiao Ran, Butler Omar, Sister Xuan, Mina and Matt, and rush to support Five Elements City as quickly as possible," Yu Shan said decisively.
"No! If we leave, there will only be two Heavenly Realm cultivators left here, you and Saintess Lanmi. If the Demon Clan launches a full-scale attack, we won't be able to stop them at all." Xiaobai refused without even thinking.
"Xiao Bai, you are also a battle-hardened commander. Don't you have an accurate judgment yet?" Yu Shan said, holding his hand.
"I know.
"The Demon Clan is probably focusing their firepower on attacking Five Elements City this time, but I'm worried that if they fail, they might take their anger out on the people here when they pass through on their way out of Five Elements City," Xiao Bai said.
"Don't worry! A defeated general doesn't boast of his bravery, and besides, we still have our defensive formation and the power of faith from all our people. We can hold out until reinforcements arrive no matter what," said Feather Fan.
"Alright then, I'll take them to Five Elements City now. Be careful!" Xiao Bai finally made up her mind.
Although he was extremely worried about the feather fan, he also understood that in war, the overall situation must be taken into account, and personal feelings could only come second.
Moreover, with his beloved daughter and son fighting bloody battles in Five Elements City, he could only choose to help the one who needed it most when he couldn't attend to both.
Xiao Ran and the others were already impatient and were just waiting for Yu Shan to speak.
Both of the little cuties are fighting to the death with the Ximo Clan in Five Elements City. How could they possibly stand by and watch from the sidelines?
Compared to their feelings for the Holy Witch Clan, they naturally cared more about Achen and Xi'er.
The moment Xiaobai gave the order, Mina unleashed a powerful tornado, sweeping everyone into its eye and hurtling towards Five Elements City.
The same scene was playing out elsewhere, with the leaders of the Sky Alliance leaving their respective cities and rushing toward Five Elements City at breakneck speed.
In the battle against the alien race, everyone set aside all distractions and selfish desires, thinking only of how to protect Five Elements City.
Once that place falls, the area invaded by the Demon Clan will expand exponentially, and the fall of the entire Misty Heaven Realm will not be far off.

The high priest roared and charged toward Bo Yiyan, only to find that in a flash, he had returned to the ancestral land.
He felt as if he had forgotten something important, but seeing the exposed, dry salt flats before him, he couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.
The ancestral land is short of water, and the stars are too far away, so the people suffer from drought and severe cold all year round.
The newborn little yellow devils have thin, elongated leaves, clearly indicating severe malnutrition.
Therefore, he had to lead his people to find new land suitable for survival.
The Demon Clan does not engage in production; their survival depends entirely on nature. They can absorb the life force of everything around them, including the energy contained in the light emitted by stars.
The high priest had also considered having his people learn the production skills of other races, but to little avail.
Because the Fine Demon race only has the instinct to fight, aside from fighting, the Yellow Demon and Green Demon have extremely low intelligence and poor learning ability.
In addition to fighting, the tribe must keep their roots submerged in water or damp soil to draw energy for survival.
These racial characteristics dictate that they can only survive by plundering and raiding.
The high priest believed that this was the malice of Heaven towards other races, which was why their Demon race was born.
Devouring other planets and races is merely for the continuation of their race; it is not the fault of the Demon race.
After touring the ancestral lands, the high priest decided to select a group of elites from the tribe and lead them to continue searching for new interfaces to invade and plunder.
At the same time, Bo Yiyan noticed that the purple demon that was rushing towards him suddenly stopped after activating its invincible state.
Is this a trick by the Purple Demon to lure the enemy?
But whatever the trick, it at least gave him a chance to break through and stabilize his realm.
Ignoring the commotion on the battlefield, he seized the time to begin his breakthrough.
The immense energy from draining a purple demon was beyond his imagination.
After breaking through to the Tongtian Realm, Bo Yiyan actually climbed to the fifth level of the Tongtian Realm in one go before finally stopping.
Then Xi'er's voice transmission was heard: "Uncle Bo, are you done yet? My Xiao Cai and Da Cai are almost at their limit. It's too much effort to cast an illusion on a purple demon!"
Bo Yiyan immediately understood that the purple demon's cessation of its attack was not a trick, but rather that Xi'er had sent two iridescent holy butterflies to help.
He had always known that Xi'er's two iridescent holy butterflies were powerful, but he never expected them to be this powerful!
Even if the most powerful array master in the Misty Heaven Realm sets up an array in advance, casting an illusion on a Purple Demon might not be enough to make the opponent fall for it.
What's more, they were improvised on the spot!
Opportunity knocks but once; strike while the iron is hot and finish him off!
Although both Bo Yiyan and Achen achieved breakthroughs unexpectedly, their situations are completely different.
He had endured hardships and fought countless battles on Green Algae Star, and his mental state had long since reached the level of composure and calmness required of a high-level cultivator.
It's only because the cultivation system was changed that his cultivation level couldn't soar to new heights in a short period of time.
By sheer chance, he devoured a purple demon, and while his cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, his state of mind remained completely unaffected.
In a very short time, he was able to unleash the power of a Tongtian Realm expert.
On the battlefield, the other two purple demons were invigorated when they saw the high priest coming to their rescue. However, they did not expect that the high priest would stop advancing after activating his invincible state.
They couldn't help but scream in an attempt to wake him, but the high priest was completely immersed in the illusion and spontaneously projected their screams into the illusory battlefield.
In the illusion, the high priest is leading his people in an attack on a new world. The intelligent races there are putting up a fierce resistance, and they have already lost a purple demon.
The high priest was heartbroken and intensified his attacks.
Unfortunately, he didn't know that all his attacks were soul attacks, and that a portion of the energy from the attacks was absorbed by the illusion to maintain the vast illusion.
A small number of attacks landed on him, leading him to mistakenly believe they were from the enemy.
Most of the remaining attack energy dissipated around him, forming a thick gray fog.
Xi'er is currently doing her best to purify the gray mist around the High Priest so as not to affect Uncle Bo's combat power.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the advanced Bo Yiyan rushed into the center of the gray fog and placed his hand on the high priest's invincible purple light without hesitation.
This was another bold attempt, because the purple light could devour the spiritual power of experts at the Tongtian Realm. Therefore, even experts at the Tongtian Realm dared not come into contact with the purple light during battle.
However, when Bo Yiyan rushed into the thick gray fog, he had already noticed the changes after his breakthrough.
He is now immune to the fog and can even absorb a small amount of energy from it.
That's why he dared to touch Purple Demon's invincible cheat.
The high priest was engrossed in the battle within the illusion when he suddenly felt his energy rapidly draining away, even though the powerful star beast opposite him had been drained of its power and rendered unable to resist.
Something's not right, something's strange!
The veteran Purple Demon was no pushover; his extremely keen vigilance instantly brought him to his senses, and the illusion began to tremble because of his sudden clarity.
The high priest noticed the disturbance in time, and he focused his mental energy, instantly breaking free from the illusion.
Then he saw that the human who had drained the strongest purple demon he had brought was placing a hand on his invincible purple light, frantically absorbing his energy.
This shocked and enraged him, as he had never encountered any race that possessed the same devouring ability as their Demon race.
The human before them possessed a cultivation level comparable to that of a purple demon and also had the ability to devour. This enemy was truly terrifying!
He must be eliminated, at all costs!
