Chapter 461 - Caught in a Pinch
Chapter 461: Caught in a Pinch
A massive rumble was heard as both sides clashed.
The forceful gale resulting from the clash swept out in all directions.
There was no doubt that the fallen angel was not only very powerful but also well versed in wielding the heavy sword. It was able to fight to a standstill against Liu Wanrong, after all.
That fallen angel was almost as powerful as Liu Wanrong.
At that moment, however, yet another fallen angel was seen before everyone.
That other fallen angel’s eyes were locked onto Lu Shanshan, who was in midair.
Lu Shanshan moved right away and appeared before that fallen angel as if she had just teleported. She began fighting against that newcomer right away.
“Demonic Might Overpowering the World!”
A crisp-clear voice was heard in the dark of night, which was so loud that none of the demons nearby were able to shut that voice out.
Everyone then saw the specter of a massive devil appearing in midair, who then stomped down right away and crushed over a dozen low-level demons.
A girl who seemed to be in her early twenties sat elegantly on the shoulder of that specter of a devil. Her feet were seen flopping about.
That specter then continued to stomp around under her control, with every stomp taking down over a dozen low-level demons.
That girl was none other than Yun Ling’er, Lu Xuan’s disciple.
Yun Ling’er had a faint devil qi surrounding her. The specter of that devil that was as tall as a mountain as it became increasingly tangible.
Another massive devil that measured over 30 meters in height charged, appearing right before Yun Ling’er in mere moments.
The specter of the devil that Yun Ling’er was sitting on then instantly clapped that incoming massive devil to the ground.
That other devil was of a harrowing level of power, which had to be no lower than the third tier of Divine Treasure Realm. Even so, it was slammed to the ground with no way of resisting that devil that Yun Ling’er sat on.
The specter of the devil that she sat on stood in front of Yunxuan Villa, making it look as if an insurmountable mountain practically standing right in front of her enemies.
Meanwhile, intimidating fallen angels that stood at several feet tall then appeared among the endless horde of demons.
The expression on everyone’s faces changed. Every single one of those fallen angels was at extremely frightening levels of powers, all of them being at the fourth tier of Divine Treasure Realm of cultivation.
Recently, being at the third tier of the Divine Treasure Realm alone was enough to make one a hyper being. Those at the fourth tier of the Divine Treasure Realm were considered the strongest among the hyper beings.
Even so, they all paled in comparison to the fallen angels; even the weakest of fallen angels were at least ar the fourth tier of the Divine Treasure Realm.
There was even a fallen angel whose powers far eclipsed all the others, wearing armor that dazzled with a black sheen.
That especially powerful fallen angel appeared to be extremely hostile and intimidating. A sulfuric aura was emanating from its feet, turning the ground that it treaded pitch black.
Zhang Hongyang shouted, “Sh*t!”
However, he was sent reeling back with blood spilling from his mouth immediately after he shouted; he had been kicked away by the leader of the fallen angels.
Although Zhang Hongyang was anything but weak, he remained incapable of even withstand an incoming attack from the leader of the fallen angels for even a second. Thus, he was then sent flying with just one kick.
Meanwhile, several fallen angels pounced on him, intending to kill him right away.
“Master!”
Ding Zhuxuan charged at the same time, dragging Zhang Hongyang behind right away.
Boom!
That spot where Zhang Hongyang was just seconds ago was completely corroded by the sulfur they emitted. Only a huge crater was left on the ground.
The entire line was caught in a crisis as those fallen angels joined the battle.
“I truly didn’t expect them to use their trump cards this early. They must be getting desperate to destroy the Yunxuan Villa as quickly as possible.” Although Zhang Hongyang felt much better immediately after spitting out some blood, he became depressed at the sight of what was happening before him.
There was no doubt that these fallen angels acted as hidden trump cards; they usually wouldn’t have been deployed onto a battlefield so easily.
After all, anyone in a battle would want to figure out their enemies’ trump cards as well. Anyone with any tactical sense would not have deployed trump cards into battles so easily unless they wanted to end things quickly.
Military forces were garrisoned near the Yunxuan Villa, along with branches from both the Heavenly Palace and the Special Task Force.
All of those people could’ve come to reinforce the villa as quickly as possible.
Other than that, Min Province had been at the very frontlines the entire time. That meant the place was heavily guarded. If the fight was dragged out for long enough, all kinds of reinforcements would’ve come flooding the place.
If that were to happen, their plans to destroy Yunxuan Villa would’ve become harder to pull off.
That was why the enemy dared to pull such risky moves; they just wanted to ensure that they were able to break into the Yunxuan Villa and tear it down as quickly as possible.
They were the strongest adversaries that the villa had ever faced. No other invading force could ever get so far.
It was especially so after Lu Xuan upgraded and added further layers of defenses to the place.
It was extremely difficult to even break through the first line of defense consisting of sword formations. The barriers would quickly stop the invaders in their tracks before killing them with a downpour of sword light.
Even the army of monsters under the Myriad Demon Valley’s control had never been able to break through the defenses before, let alone actually coming to the foot of the mountain where the villa was.
It was only then that he truly realized that no matter what kinds of defenses were laid in place, the strength of the personnel involved still mattered.
If Lu Xuan had been around to lead Yunxuan Villa, there would’ve been no need for them to worry even when facing attacks at such levels.
The entire line of defense would have been practically impregnable, but those of the villa had to now consider falling back.
That was the result of both sides having an unbridgeable gap in terms of powers. They would’ve had no reason need to worry about such things if Lu Xuan was around.
They would not have had to retreat during the fight and leave the place through secret passages.
There was no longer any point in defending the Yunxuan Villa. Continuing to hold the line would only result in the deaths of all its defenders. Nothing good could come of such an outcome.
At that moment, the battle had gotten extremely intense. The three most powerful individuals in the villa –Liu Wanrong, Lu Shanshan, and Yun Ling’er– all had to deal with attacks from several fallen angels.
The fallen angels were considered high-level demons from hell who were well-versed in both martial arts and magic.
All three of them sported exceptional physique. They were so formidable in combat that they could’ve easily defeated several fighters of their current levels ganging up on them.
Even so, all three of them were now caught in a pinch.
Other than those fallen angels, even more demons joined the battle. Some of them were 10 to even 100 times more powerful than the monsters; this was because they were only made to slaughter and destroy everything in their paths.
