867: Chapter 553.2 867: Chapter 553.2 Inside the Magical Treasure of Hell Palace, that Western Wolf Demon, the Wolf King, had been attacked by a philosophical Demonic Beast.
Little did he know, he had already been laid off!
Still desperately showing that Western Wolf Demons are no less formidable than those of the East, and even more powerful, they kept insisting that their outnumbering the opposition was a despicable act!
Then another hundred or so subordinates were captured, they had a team, but that was no match for the various Demonic Beast attacks inside Hell Palace.
Because they belonged to different realms, they were aliens!
Such challenges from Western Wolf Demons brought forth a battle cry!
People in the sky united, using their own Magical Treasures and weapons.
A hundred or so staff members, high above, began attacking the Western Wolf Demons, who were outnumbered tenfold!
The Western Wolf Demons essentially had a few tricks, a gaze as sharp as blades, agile movements, and they could also spout poison.
Various skills from the people in the sky were wielded, they knew that fire was the bane of these Western Wolf Demons!
A constant barrage of fireballs, Fire Spirit Talismans, and fire spells attacked the Western Wolf Demons!
They had the strategic high ground, and as the Western Wolf Demons launched their bladed attacks, they need only surround themselves with a defensive aura, and the poison gas couldn’t harm their bodies!
The people here didn’t need to take high-grade Vitality Pills; the Snow Lotus Worm Poison exhaled by the Western Wolf Demons couldn’t touch them!
The toxins produced by the Western Wolf Demons only wounded the Demonic Beasts in the forest!
The Western Wolf Demons kept dodging, and as they were hit by fireballs, their anguished howls grew louder, their attacking power weakening!
While the great army of Western Wolf Demons were attacking the enemy, the houses they had previously built were set ablaze by those in the sky.
Amidst the vast snow, those thousand or so houses burned red for half a day!
The skin of the Western Wolf Demons was also scorched by the flames from the houses they lived in!
Seeing that fire was effective against the Western Wolf Demons, the people in the sky decided to use just one skill to obliterate them all!
The Wolf King of the Western Wolf Demons started with a high-spirited and proud demeanor.
As the enemy’s fireballs became increasingly ferocious, wounding its team, it realized it had to flee promptly or risk annihilation!
At that point, they had no choice but to use the snow on the ground as a life-saving straw!
The Western Wolf Demons used that snow as walls, as weapons, huddling together to hide and escape!
As the battle raged fiercely, the once-thick layer of snow on the hills started to melt into water!
The snowy forest had always been filled with drifting snow, it couldn’t just melt away in an instant, and now the snowy woods faced the danger of an avalanche!
The animals hiding beneath the ground sensed the imminent danger – it was these Western Wolf Demons who had brought along the human assault!
The ones being exterminated now were not just the Western Wolf Demons, but also all the Demonic Beasts.
Animals all fear fire.
All living creatures continued to flee!
The original forest in this area was already cleared by the Western Wolf Demons, who had chopped down the trees!
So how could the people in the sky let these Western Wolf Demons escape?
Now, other than setting fires, they employed various spells to track down and suppress the Western Wolf Demons!
Quite a few Western Wolf Demons were swiftly exterminated, their bodies shifting from human form, slowly turning into wolves.
Then they turned into roasted Western Wolf Demons!
More and more Western Wolf Demons were being wiped out!
The situation was gruesome, with the howls of the Western Wolf Demons growing louder!
Some forest animals were accidentally harmed!
These animals were also screaming in agony!
The Western Wolf Demons were not a species that humans liked to eat!
However, those animals in the forest, affected by bad luck, died in the snow.
Once thriving, they were brought down, fled, and ultimately…
…were picked up by the humans above, who used their bodies!
The cultivators in the sky still needed food.
These unfortunate animals provided nourishment to sustain them as they eradicated Western Wolf Demons and searched for their relatives over this period.
The great battle was still ongoing, and some of the Western Wolf Demons managed to escape!
The Wolf King of the Western Wolf Demons ran away as well!
It wasn’t for lack of ability from those in the sky, as they were not in control of Ghost Immortals,
capable of attacking these Western Wolf Demons face to face, even killing them!
The Western Wolf Demons transformed into smoke-like wisps that floated away, something the pursuers had not anticipated!
They hadn’t expected that the Western Wolf Demons possessed another skill!
A skill for escape, transforming into spirits and drifting away like ghosts!
The forest fire continued to blaze; it was evident from the visibility that the confrontation had been fierce!
The carnage among the Western Wolf Demons was horrendous!
The individuals high in the sky had not expended much effort before routing the Western Wolf Demons!
Such was the Western Wolf Demon, to have dared come here, to bully and harm the people!
With unity among ten family clans, over 100 people managed to defeat more than a thousand Western Wolf Demons!
Yet this did not instill pride in these Clan Descendants!
For they had not managed to annihilate all the Western Wolf Demons!
Some had slipped away!
Their task now was to search for the missing people and to track down and completely destroy the Western Wolf Demons!
But they needed to guard this place, to prevent other Demons from the West from causing trouble across their national borders again!
Ye Shi led his team, alongside other Noble Clans, as they searched in the North!
So many people had come to a single conclusion!
They found a special castle!
But they couldn’t enter due to the Array in place!
At first, they thought the Array was the work of the Western Wolf Demons!
Later, after interviewing villagers nearby the castle, they learned that the castle belonged to the Cai Xiangxiang clan!
It had been built just over ten days prior, a castle erected within a single hour!
Such a castle infused with energy was impenetrable to them, and those inside could not come out!
They could guess that it was a castle built by Jiang Tang, with an Array no elite present could break!
All they could do was send messages to the castle, hoping those inside would open the contract and let them in!
The messages they received, however, indicated that Yan Weiwei and other family members could use transmitting Magical Treasures, but could not open the castle!
They also conveyed the message that Jiang Tang, Yan Weiwei, and Ye Tian were not inside the castle; more than ten days ago, they had said they would lead some people out the next day, in search of a treasure, and had since then vanished without a trace!
The people inside the castle were also worried and hoped that Jiang Tang and his group would quickly return to take them to the base for Cultivation!
Now, unable to leave, they had no choice but to continue practicing with the Secret Manuals they had been given!
Ye Shi and the various teams then received another piece of information!
Jiang Tang and Ye Tian’s group of more than ten people had not disappeared without a trace!
They vanished while searching for treasures in the North!
Could the North be hiding other treasures?
Could the North be fraught with traps?
Those who had heard the legends began to spread them, Snow Lotus, Snow Lotus Worm Poison, one to counteract poison, the other, a toxic substance!
Could their disappearance be related to these legends?
Ye Shi’s team could only comfort Yan Weiwei’s family and the castle’s residents, assuring them that they would look for Jiang Tang’s group and their lost secrets!
They told the castle dwellers to practice Cultivation at ease, that the castle might open automatically one day!
Yan Weiwei’s family had no other choice; they had now become the cultivational masters of the castle’s people!
After all, they had been Cultivating for a while and had masters to explain the Secret Manuals to them.
The team of over 100 people knew that no one could open the castle at the moment, not even the Western Wolf Demons!
The castle’s inhabitants were safe!
Thus, they set out on their search for the missing people.
Flying high in the sky, they searched places where, according to the legend, these two treasures might be found!
They especially searched in uninhabited areas like large mountains, snowy mountains, and snow fields!
During their search, they also relayed information back to the Capital City to their respective Noble Clans, keeping them up-to-date with their progress!
At the moment, Luo Yaxuan, with his Flying Treasure, was gracefully dashing through the sky, with his handsome appearance resembling a banished immortal, previously in the Capital City, he had already received many admiring gazes from the opposite sex!
His heart belonged to another, and he paid no attention to the stares from others!
Lai Jianlin, too, was on a Flying Treasure, reminiscing about his junior sister as he listened to updates from the search parties!
The two of them had initially planned to return to base and then take some people to join Su Chang’an in the North to search for Saint Lord Jiang Tang!
They learned that Su Chang’an had already gone North and had even confronted the Western Wolf Demons!
They believed in their abilities; it was only a matter of time before the Western Wolf Demons would be eliminated!
