Without the firepower blockade of the Void Fleet, the demonic clan on the ground immediately broke free from their constraints.
They dashed wildly towards the Southeast, avoiding the battle-scarred areas where the strong waves of fighting were still present, and attempted to launch a frenzied assault on the last obstacle of the Main Battlefield of Area Eight—the Forward Base.
At the same time, Xing, who was engaged in battle with the two clones, also sensed the repeated collapse of the battlefield situation, but at that moment, he truly had no energy to pay attention to so much.
The two clones beside him were already enough to keep Xing occupied.
A heavy fist shining with lightning crashed down, striking the scales of the giant dragon but causing minimal damage.
As the scales shattered and peeled away, in the next second, they healed completely—Xing's skill set focused on defense, with limit-breaking as a supplement. While his offensive power was insufficient, his defense was truly outrageous.
At least, under the pressure of the dragon might domain, the two clones, although possessing slightly superior physical attributes and racial talents compared to Xing, could only theoretically breach his defenses!
But still the same point—defense was paramount, and limit-breaking was a supplement...
This meant that Xing's combat system was strong in defense but weak in damage; worse yet, his mobility was extremely poor—really very weak...
Weak enough that Xing couldn’t catch the movements of the two Tang Haofei clones!
At this moment, the two clones acted like little flies buzzing around a giant, zipping through the air amid thunder, occasionally striking out lightning, which merely shattered a few scales on Xing’s body and had no further effect.
Although they didn’t bite, they were indeed quite annoying.
The giant dragon roared skyward, unleashing a scorching dragon breath that surged into the sky and fell back to the ground—yet this damage had no effect on the two clones at all.
For a moment, Xing found himself completely at a loss for temper.
As the passive recipient of the attacks, the giant dragon struggled to find a good countermeasure in such a short time. Suddenly, a thought struck him, and his eyes lit up; he bore the attacks from the two clones and actively shifted the battlefield closer to the Demon Realm Gate.
The battle among the three was no less than a natural disaster for the eighth-level demonic creatures trying to break through the Demon Realm Gate. Approaching the battlefield of the three, most eighth-level demonic clan members would be instantly destroyed by the terrifying aftermath of the battle.
Xing's calculations were indeed sharp—if he ignored the two clones and instead blocked the Demon Realm Gate, after all, the two clones couldn’t penetrate Xing's scales. Since that was the case, he might as well let things be and not pay further attention to them.
Noticing Xing's actions, the two clones exchanged glances and slowly began to smile. When Xing moved the battlefield right in front of the Demon Realm Gate, the two clones suddenly transformed into arcs of lightning and shot towards the horizon.
Seeing the two guys' movements, Xing was instantly stunned...
They ran away.
Indeed, these two clones responsible for entangling Xing ran away...
The unfortunate aspect of having only defense and lacking attack and mobility was that he couldn't grasp the initiative of the battle at all.
Let alone the two clones; even if ten of them were here, they wouldn’t be able to breach Xing's defenses. However, Xing's weakness was glaringly obvious—in the absence of mobility, the two clones could come and go as they pleased. They had the right to intercept Xing, but Xing had no way to stop these two incredibly fast giant flies!
Or to put it more directly, these clones were released by the demonic clan not to defeat Xing. Once they recognized Xing's weakness, the clones could completely ignore him and directly handle more strategic targets higher up in the rankings...
