Chapter 457 The Demon Army Arrives

Li Jia Yi finished speaking, not caring if Ha Mi Er had heard him. He had given his warning, and if they didn't listen...

Then you two can go to hell. Li Jia Yi decisively chose to flee.

After warning Ha Mi Er, Li Jia Yi quickly looked up at the sky.

Aerial combat was underway, but it was clearly more intense. This pair was proving harder to separate.

Li Jia Yi could only summon a flying sword. With a hand seal, it transformed into a streak of sword light and flew upwards.

Bai Ye and Situ Chi Cheng were clashing swords, their hand seals constantly changing. Then, their flying swords met with clanging sounds.

The sky was filled with explosive silver light and piercing rainbows, a breathtaking spectacle.

At this moment...

A streak of sword light suddenly intervened, passing through the middle and causing both their flying swords to pause for a moment.

Bai Ye looked down, spotting Li Jia Yi winking at him. "Had enough? Stick to the plan!"

Bai Ye nodded. As Situ Chi Cheng attacked him again, he quickly pushed his hand forward. Jing Lei Zi Dian and Yan Huang Fei Huo transformed into lightning and fire once more.

Lei Huo Jie Tian (Jing Lei Zi Dian and Yan Huang Fei Huo can form a sword array simultaneously, their lightning and tribulation fire effects can stack and increase by 15%).

The lightning and fire shot out from left and right, forming a clockwise circle.

As the circle materialized, a giant Taoist talisman appeared in the center, and then...

Boom, boom, boom.

Pillars of lightning rose, following the circle and trapping Situ Chi Cheng in the center.

Then...

The sky suddenly ignited, turning a fiery red, forming a sunset glow.

The next instant, heavenly fires rained down from above, smashing into the center of the lightning-ringed array.

This move wouldn't defeat Situ Chi Cheng.

Bai Ye had a high regard for Situ Chi Cheng's strength, as he had nearly killed him once before.

However, it was enough to delay him.

After temporarily trapping Situ Chi Cheng with Lei Huo Jie Tian, Bai Ye immediately elementalized, his body turning into lightning and falling to the ground.

Li Jia Yi said, "Stick to the plan!"

Bai Ye replied, "Are you telling me what to do?"

As he spoke, Bai Ye raised his hand.

Instantly, golden light burst from Bai Ye's palm. A small golden banner appeared in his hand, growing larger as Bai Ye grasped it.

The Zhao Yao Fan!

Wan Yao Qi Xing (The demon army emerges, sweeping across the land. Each use renders it unavailable for forty-nine hours).

Without a word, Bai Ye went for the big guns.

Unavailable for forty-nine hours?

What did that have to do with Bai Ye?

The Zhao Yao Fan would only be in Bai Ye's possession for twenty-four hours before being confiscated by that scammy gacha machine.

With this thought, Bai Ye raised the Zhao Yao Fan and swung it forward forcefully.

The banner, which had been radiating a bright, righteous golden light, instantly changed.

The golden radiance turned black, and wisps of demonic energy circled its edges, making it appear sinister.

At the same time, ghostly wails echoed from all around.

Gusts of chilling wind blew forward, bringing a bone-deep coldness.

Situ Chi Cheng was still trapped within the Lei Huo Jie Tian array and unable to command.

Bai Lu reacted swiftly, shouting, "Stop him!"

Even a fool could see something was wrong.

However, summoning the demon army with the Zhao Yao Fan required a certain preparation time, and that was the vulnerability. This was the best chance to attack Bai Ye.

Fortunately, Bai Ye and Li Jia Yi had already coordinated.

Two Iron-Blooded Warriors quickly moved forward, raising their arms as the wrist-mounted cannons on their forearms began to charge.

"Tail Vibration, Nine Tails!"

Behind Li Jia Yi, nine tails suddenly expanded, becoming immense. They thrust into the ground, forming a wall.

The next instant...

Boom, boom!

Two thick energy beams shot out, striking the tails.

A deafening roar erupted.

Cracks appeared on Li Jia Yi's tails, and they were forced backward.

Bai Ye, holding the Zhao Yao Fan, taunted, "Can you handle it, twiggy?"

Li Jia Yi ignored Bai Ye and suddenly reached forward, activating his ability.

Specks of light appeared in the air, followed by rectangular mirrors.

The next moment, the exploding beams hit the surrounding mirrors and were reflected back.

The two Iron-Blooded Warriors were instantly alarmed and retreated rapidly. Then...

Boom, boom, boom!

The scattered energy beams struck the ground, erupting in a continuous roar.

Just then, the demon army summoned by the Zhao Yao Fan finally appeared.

In the sky, on the ground, and even in the adjacent river, layers of demonic energy surged.

Then, demons clad in ancient armor began to emerge.

Some had tiger heads and human bodies, others leopard heads and eagle wings, and some were headless specters, drifting in the air.

A mountain spirit appeared on a nearby rooftop, roaring upwards. Its massive body crushed the roof, and soon, the walls shattered, revealing the mountain spirit as it burst forth.

In the river, a clear spring suddenly surged.

Upon the spring sat a breathtaking beauty, her revealing gauze outlining her graceful figure. She held a pipa, but her lower half was a red fish tail.

In the sky, an eagle's cry suddenly sounded.

Looking up, a golden eagle, as large as a mountain, soared across the sky, shedding a shower of golden feathers that fluttered down like beautiful snow.

Bai Ye stepped forward, waving the Zhao Yao Fan. "Attack!"

In the blink of an eye, the summoned demon army charged forward ferociously.

As the demon army surged forward, Bai Ye decisively waved his hand. "Disperse."

Li Jia Yi said as he ran, "Run in different directions. Circle around, then meet at the Jiang Yun ferry terminal to the southeast. There's a small warehouse there with a lot of containers..."

After speaking, Li Jia Yi checked the time.

"Arrive within fifteen minutes. Hurry up."

Bai Ye replied, "You guys try. Three seconds is enough for me."

With that, Bai Ye transformed into a bolt of electricity and vanished. Li Jia Yi and Ha Mi Er, one ran west, the other spread his wings and fled across the river.

Li Jia Yi remained cautious. This dispersal was to prevent the enemy from using tracking devices. By drawing apart and circling back, they would have enough time to confirm this and shake off any pursuit.
