Chapter 267: The Demonic Flame Shows Its Power
“Fall back! Everyone, retreat to the grand formation!” Lv Tianmeng shouted urgently as he saw the cyan flames on the large flags growing thicker. Without hesitation, he pulled back his figure and retreated toward the grand formation behind them.
The cultivators beside him immediately followed their leader’s instinctive order and withdrew.
Seeing this, Xuan Le did not hesitate and also issued the order to retreat.
However, on Han Li’s side, except for a few who firmly held the upper hand and could withdraw at any time, the rest were all desperately entangled by their opponents, unable to escape.
Han Li’s enemies launched a frenzied offensive, attempting to pin him down.
But Han Li sneered coldly, retracting his other magical artifacts while summoning his White Scale Shield. Bracing against the enemy’s attacks, he skillfully returned to the grand formation. This forced the Heavenly Fiend Sect cultivators to stop outside the formation with reluctant expressions.
Xuan Le saw that more than half of his team was still trapped outside the formation and the fighting had only intensified. Realizing the situation was dire, he intended to lead others out to assist. However, the moment he moved, Lv Tianmeng grabbed him firmly.
“It’s already too late! The Qingyang Demonic Flame has been summoned by the enemy!” Lv Tianmeng said with a grim face, shaking his head.
Hearing this, Han Li finally noticed that the red-clad men holding large flags had thick cyan flames shooting out from the tips of their banners, about as thick as an arm.
More than a dozen columns of cyan flames surged into the air, merging into a huge blue flame sphere several meters in diameter, gently floating and swaying majestically—dazzling beyond compare.
“What is this?”
Xuan Le was taken aback and was about to say something when the actions of those red-clad men below made his face darken.
They pointed their banner tips at the Seven Sects cultivators still entangled outside the formation. Instantly, the enormous fireball made a muffled “puff” sound and split into more than ten smaller fireballs, each several feet long, charging fiercely toward those cultivators.
These cyan fireballs moved at lightning speed, quickly rushing right in front of the Seven Sects cultivators.
Naturally, these cultivators noticed the abnormal fireballs early on. Most simultaneously used various magical artifacts to intercept the cyan fireballs, while a few used talismans and Taoist attacks, all trying to bring them down.
Unfortunately, these cyan flames, called Qingyang Demonic Flame, were terrifyingly powerful!
No matter if it was magical artifact attacks or Taoist arts, the moment they touched the cyan fireballs, they were silently and completely melted away, like moths drawn to a flame.
Seeing this incredible scene, the cultivators turned pale as snow!
Before they could react, the more than ten fireballs landed simultaneously on them. Their external protective shields and spells were all extinguished at once.
Under the demonic flames, they instantly turned to nothingness, leaving no trace in this world.
The remaining cultivators not yet attacked saw this terrifying situation and had no hesitation!
Even risking heavy injuries from the Heavenly Fiend Sect cultivators or abandoning their entangled magical artifacts, they immediately fled toward the grand formation.
But in doing so, two or three panicked and died directly under the opponent’s magical artifacts.
Thus, right after contact, the Seven Sects defenders of the spirit ore suffered heavy losses—nearly a dozen qi refining stage disciples and one foundation establishment stage cultivator—an extremely severe blow!
But the power of the Qingyang Demonic Flame was not limited to this!
Under the control of the red-clad men, the cyan fireballs recombined into a single entity and then transformed into a cyan flame wave that charged toward the Four Fiends Formation.
Everyone hiding inside the formation changed their expressions drastically, fear spreading among all the cultivators.
