Chapter 365: The Great Battle Begins
On the way, to accelerate the Demon Ape’s recovery from its injuries, he fed the Demon Ape two drops of Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water.
The Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water truly lived up to its reputation as a healing treasure, and under the effect of the two drops, the wounds of the Demon Ape healed at a rate visible to the naked eye.
Driven at full force, the Abyssal Spaceship turned into a streak of extreme speed, continuously breaking through layers of clouds and rapidly approaching the Elf King City.
Several days later.
The Elf King City was finally within sight.
At this moment, inside the palace of the Elf King City, Xi Yuandong’s face was grim.
Originally, she had intended to ally with the Charm Clan and the Giant Clan to surround and kill the Heartfelt Demon Ape, but both the Charm Clan Leader and the Giant Clan Leader had refused!
“Contact the Charm Clan Leader again,” Xi Yuandong insisted, unwilling to give up, and said to Xi Mo, “Tell him if they are willing to take action, I will give them each a hundred drops of Spiritual Liquid!”
The Life God Tree could only condense one drop of Spiritual Liquid each year; a hundred drops represented a century’s reserve of the Elf Clan.
Xi Mo respectfully acknowledged the command.
Suddenly, Xi Yuandong felt a sharp pain in her chest and blood seeped from the corners of her mouth.
Previously, she had been struck twice by the Heartfelt Demon Ape’s iron chains, and although she had ingested Spiritual Liquid, her injuries had not healed at all.
Xi Mo, seeing this and about to speak, was suddenly interrupted by a thunderous explosion.
The entire Elf King City shook violently.
Every Elf Clan expert in the great hall was shocked.
Xi Yuandong and others flew out of the great hall only to see an enormous ape covered in black fur that seemed to support the sky and earth.
“The Heartfelt Demon Ape!” Xi Yuandong and the others paled.
“Quick, fully activate the Elf Grand Array!” Xi Yuandong bellowed.
“Your Majesty, be assured, the Elf Grand Array is the strongest of the Hundred Clan Empire’s grand arrays, the Heartfelt Demon Ape won’t possibly be able to break it!” an Elf Clan Ancestor spoke.
No sooner had he spoken, the Heartfelt Demon Ape swung down its chain made of Black Crystal Cold Iron.
Another earth-shattering roar reverberated.
The protective barrier of the Elf Clan Army’s Grand Array shook violently, its originally bright glow turning dim.
The faces of all Elf Clan experts turned ashen.
At this moment, the Heartfelt Demon Ape’s iron chain, forged of Black Crystal Cold Iron, indestructible and weighing a billion tons, lashed out again.
With a single strike, it was as if two massive mountains crazily slammed against the Grand Array.
Bang!
Following the second earth-shattering roar.
The entire Elf Grand Array dimmed, its glow gone, while cracks appeared across the barrier, quickly spreading throughout the array.
Then, with its true form revealed, the Iceflame Qilin’s giant paw, large as a mountain, slammed down.
The Elf Grand Array completely shattered.
“Thunder Burst!” The cold voice of the Azure Thunder Python echoed through Heaven and Earth.
The skies filled with Divine Grade Tribulation Thunder, like torrential rain, enveloping the entire Elf King City.
The Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor, with a Sky Demon silhouette formed behind him, opened his mouth and the Annihilating Heaven Demonic Qi surged into the Elf Clan City like an overwhelming river, sweeping through every corner of the royal city.
Xi Yuandong panicked, wildly swinging her Elf Sword in hand, unleashing countless Sword Qi.
Xi Mo, the Hai Family Patriarch, along with a host of Elf powerhouses, all sprung into action.
Millions of the Elf Clan Army converged, striking out in fury and shock.
Thunderous roars echoed incessantly.
The Elf Clan Army was continuously sent flying.
At that moment, the Heartfelt Demon Ape’s ten-thousand-zhang iron chain whipped down again, lashing towards Xi Yuandong and Xi Mo, along with a host of Elf Clan experts.
Watching the oncoming ten-thousand-zhang iron chain, Xi Yuandong, Xi Mo, and the others’ complexions drastically changed. They didn’t dare to take the hit head-on and frantically retreated.
Just as they retreated, the ten-thousand-zhang iron chain whooshed past where they had originally been standing.
Thunderous roars.
Behind them, the Elf Clan Royal Palace was split into two.
Two terrifying chasms extended to the very end of the palace.
Countless palaces were reduced to dust.
Blood rained down in torrents.
Seeing this, Xi Yuandong was even more horrified. The strength of the Heartfelt Demon Ape had increased more than twofold compared to their encounter in Sky Demon City!
She suddenly looked and saw that the chasm-like wound on the Heartfelt Demon Ape’s chest had healed!
Watching as the Elf Clan Army surged forward, the Heartfelt Demon Ape let out a roar. The sonic waves generated terrifying gales, sending wave after wave of the Elf Clan Army flying.
Seeing the ferocity of the Heartfelt Demon Ape, Xi Mo and the group of Divine Spirit Ancestors were trembling with fear.
“Your Majesty, you are wounded. Shall we retreat for now?” a Divine Spirit Ancestor said with a trembling voice.
The fierceness of the Heartfelt Demon Ape made the Elf Clan experts entertain thoughts of retreat.
Yet Xi Yuandong was furious, and with her sword pointed at Yang Xiaotian, she commanded, “All of you listen to my command, kill him for me. Even if it leads to our clan’s destruction, I want you to kill him!” With that said, she took the lead and struck at Yang Xiaotian with her Elf Sword.
Her hatred for Yang Xiaotian was boundless.
In the battle with the Dwarf Tribe, the Elf Clan lost nearly a million troops. In the battle at Sky Demon City, hundreds of beings from the Saint Realm fell, along with thousands from the Elf royal family and Core Disciples. Even her most cherished grandson, Xi Luo, died!
All this was because of this Human Race youth!
If it hadn’t been for this Human Race youth, none of this would have happened.
Upon Xi Yuandong’s command, the Elf Clan Army, like tidal waves, continuously attacked Yang Xiaotian and his companions.
The Heartfelt Demon Ape disbanded Xi Yuandong’s Sword Qi with one palm strike. With cold, piercing eyes, it took a step forward, and like a mountain, its ape leg with rolling Demonic Qi stamped towards the Elf Clan Royal Palace.
Xi Mo and the others were alarmed and launched their attacks.
However, the attacks from Xi Mo and the others couldn’t shake the Heartfelt Demon Ape; they couldn’t even cut through the Demonic Qi enveloping its body.
The Demonic Qi shrouding the Heartfelt Demon Ape covered the sky and earth, forming a demonic realm that seemingly had tens of thousands of demons.
Yang Xiaotian held the Burying Heaven Sword and Controlling Dragon Sword in his hands, charging into the Elf Clan Army. Wherever he went, the troops of the Elf Clan were sent tumbling into the air.
Amidst the tens of millions of the Elf Clan Army, Yang Xiaotian carved bloody waves one after another.
Activating the power of his eleven Sword Hearts, multicolored Sword Qi erupted from his body. From afar, he looked like a ball of multicolored light weaving through the tens of millions of the Elf Clan Army.
Wherever the multicolored ball of light passed, waves of blood surged, strikingly vivid and awe-inspiring.
The Annihilating Heaven Demon Ancestor and the Azure Thunder Python followed Yang Xiaotian’s side, charging into the Elf Clan Army.
Instantly, the entire Elf King City seemed to experience a relentless downpour of blood, nearly obliterating the sunlight above. Meanwhile, the Heartfelt Demon Ape, alone, was combating Xi Yuandong, Xi Mo, and over a dozen Divine Spirit Powerhouses.
Xi Yuandong, Xi Mo, and the others were spewing blood incessantly.
Their wild killing intent ravaged all corners of heaven and earth.
The Iceflame Qilin’s body erupted with ice-blue flames. With one swipe of its paw, it cleaved mountains and shattered the earth, freezing thousands of miles around. The Elf Clan’s Saint Realm Ancestors either exploded on impact or were frozen solid, and no one in their path could withstand them.
Yang Xiaotian was continuously swallowed up by the Elf Clan Army, yet continued to blast the surrounding troops away. The divine light from his two Divine Elixirs surged, and the power of True Essence seemed endless as it flowed from his Dual Swords.
His vitality completely unfurled, transforming into a sea of blood that spanned thousands of miles. Instantly, scorching waves rolled forth, the blood-red energy illuminating half of the Elf King City.
Seeing Yang Xiaotian’s vitality so tremendous, the Elf Clan powerhouses were completely stunned.
