Chapter 390: Tiana's group attack

It was the third day since their battle against the Night Mountain Sect's disciples.

Azaroth noticed that their surroundings were filling up again. The Night Mountain Sect's disciples were much more prepared this time.

He guessed that the ones who had escaped last time must have informed their comrades about their assault.

Well, this was fine, in Azaroth's opinion. He planned to have these women remain on the defensive this time.

He had planned to guide them once during their offense and once during their defense. It was to show them the path.

They possessed the willpower and talent to walk down that path. Any more assistance would be harmful to their path ahead.

Nearly all these women had learned to use the initial form of the Sacred Ice Sovereign Manifestation! Thus, their combat ability had greatly risen.

Azaroth knew that even though these women had gotten stronger, their opponents could overwhelm them using their large numbers.

Actually, not just their numbers, but the aura he sensed from them suggested that they were rather strong.

They weren't like those disciples from before who had been easily caught off-guard. Moreover, they were so weak that these women could block all their attacks using a single technique.

This time, it won't work. These women would need to use one of the best techniques to block a single attack from an individual. If two warriors attacked them at the same time, their defense would be pierced.

Even if these women used their Sacred Ice Sovereign Manifestation technique, their combat prowess would be boosted significantly, but their aura expenditure would be extremely great.

They couldn't use that technique for prolonged combat.

For this very reason, Azaroth planned for them to remain on the defensive this time.

They were going to stay together under Tiana's lead. Tiana was going to command them while receiving some hints from Azaroth.

These women would learn to support each other during the battle and cover each other's weak points.

Individually, their combat power would suffer quite a bit, but their strength would be greatly elevated collectively.

This time, the Night Mountain Sect's team leader was a rather proactive individual. He was careful but not overly cautious.

He checked the area around Azaroth's camp and concluded that there were no hidden traps or warriors.

This meant that the warriors they saw were the ones they had to fight. It would take at least an hour for the reinforcements to arrive if they wanted to. If he sensed any reinforcements, he would immediately give an order to retreat.

If the Black Lake Sect was directing many of its forces to this point, then its other points would get weaker.

The Night Mountain Sect would have a good chance of breaking through those points. Thus, the Night Mountain Sect's team leader believed that the overall situation would be in Night Mountain Sect's favor.

He believed that attacking Azaroth's team was the perfect decision.

In fact, he somewhat looked down on the leader who was previously leading his team around this area.

That gentleman had been overly careful. If he had ambushed Azaroth's camp, he could have caught them off guard and swept through them in one swoop.

However, this man was also thankful to that previous leader. Because if not for his blunder, he wouldn't be promoted so quickly.

At the least, he won't be asked to lead such a large team. If he showed great results here, this team might become permanent.

He would hold a great prestige at that moment. He would receive many resources because of his large group.

He planned to invest the majority of those resources in himself.

Suddenly, his subordinate shook him out of his dreamland as he asked his leader, "When do we launch an attack, leader?"

The 'leader' word was spoken with a sarcastic tone. It was only natural because this man was previously a team leader as well.

However, the inner sect elder had suddenly combined all the teams and assigned them to this man.

No one understood why this man was chosen to represent them. They all believed that their ability was not in any way inferior to him.

Some thought that this man had some secret connections to the Inner Sect Elders. Or he paid a specific price to get this chance.

Even though they didn't respect him that much, they knew they had to obey him at this moment.

The Night Mountain Sect was very specific about Hierarchy. It was for this reason that everyone wanted to form a large team.

Suddenly, Azaroth flew into the sky at a quick pace. He was so fast that the opponents didn't even notice his presence.

If they had seen him flying, they would have been terrified.

The Night Mountain Sect knew that no individual could fly over this mountain. Not even the sect master of the Night Mountain Sect.

This was because of a special power that was released from that moat around the Night Mountain Sect's perimeter.

Azaroth had already sensed demonic presence from this moat. He didn't go over there because the presence he sensed was much stronger than him.

If he revealed his presence and his bloodline to that individual, it would be difficult for him to survive.

There was a good chance that the demon would go crazy and try to ingest Azaroth at any cost.

If it was a Demon King, Azaroth would have some chances of victory. He was extremely familiar with Demonic Techniques and a demon's way of fighting.

Thus, even a Demon King would fall under Azaroth's hands.

However, the situation would be extremely different if a Demon Emperor were there. No matter what techniques Azaroth possessed, his Ardor was significantly weaker than a Demon Emperor.

Moreover, after cultivating a Demon Emperor's level, a demon would begin to mature slightly. They would create their own path ahead.

It would depend on the demon whether his path would lead him to become an expert amongst the Demon Emperors or a weakling.

However, even a weakling within the Demon Emperors was an untouchable existence for a Demon King or below that rank.

This was because other than bloodlines or techniques, there was a standard power that all Demon Emperors would receive after achieving this rank.

And this power would completely overwhelm Azaroth and his Bloodline because of the wide difference between them.

Anyway, the battle between the Night Mountain Sect's team and the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect had begun.

Large thick walls of Ice suddenly appeared in the entire camp. All their tents then released a thick smoke that covered the entire area.

The Night Mountain Sect's disciples had already moved forward, and they didn't plan to back away just due to some smokescreen.

To clear the region of the smoke, one of the Night Mountain Sect's disciples deployed a wind ability. The white smoke was dispersed from the region before it reverted to its previous state.

"But how?" That man questioned himself with a confused look.

He had no idea that Tiana and her subordinates were using the Sacred Ice Sovereign Manifestation Technique to congeal this white smoke.

This technique was used to crystalize the water molecules in the air and convert them to fog.

These women all utilized the Wild Cat's Eye to ensure their vision wasn't affected due to this smokescreen.

If even they couldn't see, then the purpose of this smokescreen would be defeated.
