The Devil's Tribulation

Chapter 517 The Demon Lord Attacks

The black stone forest in the world of dead bones.

Situ Xian looked at the two female cultivators who took the lead and said inwardly, "You two bitches! I'll settle the score with you after we get out!"

However, after this incident, Situ Xian also realized that he was too impatient before, and hurriedly bowed to the many monks and said loudly: "Before, Situ was too impatient and his words were offensive. I apologize to everyone here."

After apologizing, Situ Xian changed the subject and said, "But everyone has already pushed Shangguan Heng to this extent. Don't you think it's a pity to just give up?"

Everyone was whispering, and Situ Xian quickly said while the heat was on: "I promise here that whichever sect kills Shangguan Heng, one of the two demon-companion herbs will be theirs, and I will never regret it!"

Chen Jie and Hu Ji left side by side. They didn't walk far, so they also heard what Situ Xian said.

Hu Ji was a little tempted and said, "Sister Chen, are we leaving just like this? We are about to get the Demon Companion Grass~"

Chen Jie sneered and said, "Sister, I understand now that some things cannot be forced. What is yours is yours, and what is not yours is best not to force it."

Hu Ji was a little confused. Chen Jie looked at the cultivators following behind her and said in a voice transmission, "We are the only ones left. Even if we get the Demon Companion Grass, with Situ Xian's character, do you think we can keep it?"

Upon hearing this, Hu Ji was horrified. She had never thought about this before, but now that Chen Jie reminded her, she suddenly realized, "Sister is right. This Situ Xian cannot be trusted!"

Chen Jie sighed and blamed herself, "I suddenly heard about the appearance of the Demon Companion Grass before, and I didn't think much of it. I came here with my disciples, and ended up suffering heavy losses. When I came here, my master told me not to force it. It was me who killed so many of my fellow disciples."

The loss of Lingxiao Sect this time was not small. A pair of Xia family siblings with excellent qualifications and his own cousin all had a good chance of advancing to the fusion stage.

If all these people were killed, Lingxiao Sect would take many years to recover. Moreover, in order to hunt down Shangguan Heng, the time they had to find resources was greatly shortened, and they could not make up for the loss at all.

Hu Ji was very sad and looked at the cultivators behind her. She said with a tearful voice: "Sister, why didn't you remind me earlier? These are the only disciples I have left. Now that I have calmed down, I don't know how to explain this to the sect."

Lingxiao Sect and Lingyin Sect are ranked sixth and seventh in Dongzhou respectively, and are stronger than Guiyi Sect and Lingquan Sect.

However, their losses this time were greater than those of Guiyi Sect and Lingquan Sect. In the next thousand years, their ranking may be surpassed by the two sects.

If you are surpassed in the ranking, your territory will shrink and your resources will naturally be greatly reduced.

When Chen Jie heard what Hu Ji said, she suddenly chuckled and said, "Don't be too pessimistic, sister. It should still be in time for us to stop the loss now. As for the rest, we won't get involved. Let's wait and see~"

Hu Ji was stunned again. Chen Jie smiled and said, "Why do you think Shangguan Heng suddenly appeared in front of the monks? Let's leave quickly to avoid being affected."

There are many smart people, and many of those who did not participate in the war have thought of it.

However, all the people who were fighting were hot-headed, and only a few of them could suddenly wake up like Chen Jie. In addition, Shangguan Heng was really forced into a desperate situation, and the Demon-Companion Grass was within their reach, so they gritted their teeth and insisted on staying.

Seeing that everyone's morale had been boosted, Situ Xian said happily, "Great! Let's work harder and break the formation! The Demon Companion Grass is right before our eyes!"

Inside the formation, Shangguan Heng sneered at Situ Xian who was giving orders, shook his head and said, "Situ Xian, this kid won't achieve anything great in his life. But Chen Jie from Lingxiao Sect is a character, and he left early."

As they were talking, three more people suddenly came into the formation. Shangguan Heng was overjoyed and said, "Three junior brothers, is the formation over there ready?"

The people who came were the three formation masters of the Yu Lei Sect. Junior Brother Fang bowed slightly and said, "Not yet, but Miss Qiaoqiao asked us to come over to help Senior Brother first. She can do it alone over there. The formation can be set up in five days at most~"

Shangguan Heng was delighted when he heard this, "Great! With three junior brothers presiding over the formation, the power of the formation can be increased by 30%. Then we will be safe from now on!"

Before Shangguan Heng had time to be happy, a rumbling sound was heard, and the three formation masters immediately took their positions and began to preside over the formation.

The light of the formation suddenly became much brighter than before, and the formation, which had been somewhat shaky, suddenly became stable again.

Situ Xian quickly looked at the Beastmaster behind him. The master knew what he was talking about after just one look and said hurriedly, "This formation is now controlled by at least two masters. It is much more powerful than before. It looks like we will have to attack for several days before we can break it."

It’s not like Situ Xian hadn’t thought about asking the formation masters to break the formation before, but these formation masters just looked at it for a few times and shook their heads and said, “If we break the formation, it will be faster than the monks’ violent breaking of the formation.”

According to the formation master, it would take them at least ten days or half a month to break the formation. If the cultivators used violence to break the formation, it might be done in three to five days.

What they lack now is time. Shangguan Heng has made it clear that he wants to delay. Every day of delay will increase the chances of uncertainty, so Situ Xian decides to break the formation by force.

Even though five months seems like a long time, they still have to calculate the way back. Being led into the depths of the black stone forest, it would take them a month to get back to the ancient battlefield. It would take another month to get back to the entrance from the ancient battlefield, so all in all, they only have three months.

Now a month has passed, and there are only two months left. If it takes another half a month to break the formation, Shangguan Heng will have to use no other means to delay time.

If Shangguan Heng had any other means, it might be too late.

Situ Xian gritted his teeth and said, "Let him delay for a few more days at most. It won't change the result!"

When the monks were attacking happily, a pressure suddenly came from the east, followed by a roar of "Ah~"

Everyone paused, and Gu He said in shock: "Demon Plant Demon Lord! I understand! Shangguan Heng attracted it, he actually attracted a Demon Plant Demon Lord!"

When Shangguan Heng suddenly appeared just now, Gu He felt a little uneasy, not knowing what Shangguan Heng was going to do.

Shangguan Heng had already led two groups of demon beasts before, and he never expected that there was an even more powerful demon plant monster nearby!

The probability of a demon plant becoming a spirit is a hundred times lower than that of a demon beast, but once it becomes a spirit, its strength is much stronger than that of the demon race! It is well known that a demon plant at the early stage of demon master can fight against a demon beast at the middle stage of demon master.

The demon plant in front of him was fifty feet tall and sixty to seventy feet wide. It was also a willow demon. Not only did it have many willow branches, but its vitality was also stronger than that of ordinary demon plants!

It is difficult to kill it because of its strong vitality, and its strength is even stronger than that of monsters. This is really a life-threatening situation!
