Chapter 104: The Black-Armored Cavalry!

"Hmph!"

Upon witnessing the Earth-Fire Flame Demon's continued massacre, Wen Tingguang wasted no time. With a swift sweep of his long sword, he viciously slashed towards the monster.

The Earth-Fire Flame Demon, surrounded by roaring flames, posed a formidable threat. Even with Wen Tingguang's level of cultivation, maintaining his defensive barrier required a considerable expenditure of true essence. Failure to do so would leave him vulnerable to the searing flames, risking immediate blindness.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Earth-Fire Flame Demon's massive fists descended with ferocity towards Wen Tingguang. Uptodated from n0velbIn.(c)o/m

As Wen Tingguang had admitted, his current strength proved insufficient to subdue the Earth-Fire Flame Demon. Indeed, in direct combat, he found himself consistently on the back foot.

In strict terms, although Wen Tingguang held a high position within the Cangqiong Sect, his role leaned more towards that of a strategist and adviser rather than a frontline fighter.

Ling Feng squinted his eyes as he observed Wen Tingguang, realizing that he was merely attempting to endure rather than possessing the power to defeat the Earth-Fire Flame Demon.

No wonder he insisted that I leave first, with a face full of sorrow and solemnity.

"Brother Wen!"

Ling Feng clenched his fists tightly, feeling helpless as he lacked the strength to aid Wen Tingguang.

Boom!

Another punch from the Earth-Fire Flame Demon's massive fist slammed viciously against Wen Tingguang's protective barrier. Despite the distance of a thousand feet between them, Ling Feng could faintly discern a "crack" resonating in the air.

Spurt!

Wen Tingguang expelled a mouthful of blood, his long sword radiating a chilling blue light as he fixed his gaze firmly on the Earth-Fire Flame Demon, his brow furrowed in concentration, teeth clenched tightly.

Given his strength, he could have simply fled, as the Earth-Fire Flame Demon's array couldn't impede him.

But fleeing would be too easy for him; the innocent people living near this mountain range would all suffer greatly!

"Roar!"

Rearing its head to the sky, the Earth-Fire Flame Demon unleashed a roar, its blood-red eyes fixating on Wen Tingguang with an intense, bloodthirsty gleam.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The Earth-Fire Flame Demon marched forward in imposing strides, steadily closing the distance to Wen Tingguang. Its massive form loomed over, flattening the surrounding landscape with each step due to its sheer weight.

With each step, it generated a thunderous roar, echoing like the sound of death, causing the earth to tremble and the mountains to shake.

Clomp! Clomp!

Observing the sky, Ling Feng noticed the diminishing strength of Wen Tingguang's aura, prompting a tight furrow of his brows.

Long Xiao's voice thundered as he brandished his spear, attempting to intimidate the demon with his presence.

"Roar!"

In response, an even more ferocious roar echoed forth. The Earth-Fire Flame Demon showed no signs of stopping, its roar fierce as it targeted Long Xiao directly, unleashing a powerful fist.

"Arrogant fool, you have some nerve!!!"

Long Xiao's voice, befitting his rank as a general, carried an irresistible air of authority and dominance.

With the presence of this Imperial general, along with Elder Wen, Ling Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, confident that they could surely subdue this ferocious monster.

I’m saved!

The trapped martial artists in the mountains also sighed deeply in relief.

Every individual who attained the rank of Imperial general was undoubtedly valiant and skilled, possessing unparalleled courage.

Staring fiercely at the monstrous creature, Long Xiao remained undaunted. As a high-ranking general of the Empire, it was his duty to safeguard the realm's peace, and now was the time to demonstrate his loyalty to the nation.

As the Earth-Fire Flame Demon charged towards him in a frenzy, Long Xiao couldn't help but feel surprised.

Given the level of intelligence expected from beings like demonic lords, it was perplexing to witness such irrational bloodlust.

However, there was no time for further contemplation. With a sweep of his spear, a glint of cold light preceded its thrust, followed by a strike as swift and formidable as a dragon's!

"Demon-Slaying Storm Spear!"

Empowered by his formidable essence, Long Xiao summoned a colossal spear from the skies, spanning over a dozen yards and radiating an intimidating aura.

"Descend!"

With a clench of his fist, Long Xiao summoned forth the colossal spear, which swiftly aimed straight for the Earth-Fire Flame Demon's head, launching with ferocious intensity.

Boom!

The air was shattered instantly, the tremendous force generating violent shockwaves that swept out in all directions.

Zoom!

A silver spear aura darted forth, aiming directly for the eye of the Earth-Fire Flame Demon.

Ling Feng's eyelid twitched; it was the first time he had witnessed such an attack method. Only by converting the true qi in the body into elemental qi could one condense such a huge spear of true essence in an instant. If it were someone at Ling Feng's level of Qi Formation, it was likely that before the spear could even take form, the true qi in their body would have been completely depleted, leading to exhaustion and death.

With a thought, Ling Feng activated the Heavenly Dao Eye. Although he couldn't yet master this ability, he decided to "copy" it for now. When his cultivation reached a higher level, he would be able to unleash his own "Spear of True Essence."

Roar!

The Earth-Fire Flame Demon let out a roar towards the skies, showing no inclination to evade as it charged recklessly towards Long Xiao. With a wild frenzy, it thrust its head forward, astonishingly deflecting Long Xiao's spear of true essence. With a hand engulfed in raging flames, it reached out to seize him.
