Chapter 467: Chapter 247: The Demon Core’s Self-Destruction, Hope in a Desperate Situation [Subscribe Requested]_2

However, when the Green Giant Eagle opened its blood-stained beak and spat out a green inner core shimmering with aqua light, Zhou Chun and the others instantly understood.

“Oh no, it’s going to self-destruct its Demon Core!”

An exclamation burst from Zhou Mingde’s mouth as he reflexively shot a streak of red firelight toward the green inner core.

But this attack was not only intercepted by the middle-aged man, but he also summoned a massive yellow earthen seal Magic Artifact to join the fray.

Boom!

Shortly thereafter, a thunderous explosion rang out above Jiufeng Ridge.

Arising simultaneously was a dazzlingly bright green brilliance.

Although it was only a mid-tier, third-grade Demon Beast’s self-destruction of its inner core, the power unleashed by this self-destruction far surpassed even the attacks of a high-tier, third-grade Demon Beast.

After all, this was a blow containing the lifetime’s worth of cultivation power of a third-grade Demon Beast, an attack even Golden Core Stage Cultivators would take seriously.

When this blow combined with the attacks of other Demon Beasts, it finally inflicted significant damage to the Five Directions Mirlo Array.

The radiance emitted by the Five-Colored Light Shield suddenly dimmed, as if clouds had covered the sun, giving the impression that the shield could shatter at any moment.

However, a sphere of Five-Colored Spiritual Light subsequently merged into the Protective Barrier, rekindling its glow.

“Forcing the Formation Flags’ power will at best allow us to hold out for less than an hour; afterwards, no matter whether we’re attacked again or not, the Array Protective Shield won’t be able to solidify again!”

Atop Pagoda Peak, Zhou Chongshan, his complexion ashen, wiped the sweat from his forehead and hoarsely stated the situation.

It was he who had just taken action, using the unique methods of an Array Master to restabilize the formation.

However, because the equipment used for the formation had been damaged in the self-destruction of the Demon Core, this restabilized formation was doomed to fail before long.

“I understand the situation, Elder Zhou, please go back and rest. We of the Zhou Family will certainly win this battle!”

Zhou Daoyi nodded slightly and promptly continued to oversee the Array, resisting the onslaught from the horde outside.

Outside, seeing that even the self-destruction of the Demon Core had not breached the Zhou Family’s Mountain Protection Array, the face of the protector from the Dragon Transformation Sect’s Blood Dragon Hall turned somber, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Although he knew the Zhou Family was formidable, he hadn’t expected their Mountain Protection Array to be this strong.

But by now, he was in a dilemma, with no choice but to order the Demon Beasts to maintain their offensive.

After more than half an hour passed, the first-grade Demon Beasts were either killed or too exhausted to launch any more attacks, leaving only the second and third-grade Demon Beasts capable of casting spells to attack.

At Zhou Family Mountain gate, Zhou Chun and the others had long resorted to taking Rejuvenation Pills to restore their Mana.

“It’s about time!”

Zhou Mingde looked at the visibly fatigued Demon Beasts outside, a sharp glint in his eye, and then he said in a deep voice, “Attack now, Fire Divine Jackal!”

No sooner had the words fallen than the Fire Divine Jackal and the Green Flood Dragon Qingqing, already primed for battle, rushed out from the Zhou Family Mountain gate and charged directly at the One-Horned Fire Wolf.

At that moment, Zhou Mingde also summoned several Magic Artifacts and directed them at the yellow earthen giant scorpion, tying up its strength.

Outside, seeing the Green Flood Dragon and the Fire Divine Jackal—its two “old rivals”—suddenly bearing down on it, the One-Horned Fire Wolf panicked, clamping its tail and letting out a yowl before turning to flee.

But how could its speed match that of the Green Flood Dragon?

It had fled merely a few hundred yards when a streak of greenish-white light struck it, sending it flying.

Then a red fireball spat out by the Fire Divine Jackal hit it, causing it to howl in agony.

Only then did the Purple Black Giant Tiger and Black-Haired Giant Bull react, and both immediately roared in anger, turning their attention to lunge at the Green Flood Dragon and the Fire Divine Jackal.

Faced with these two upper-tier third-grade Demon Beasts, neither the Green Flood Dragon nor the Fire Divine Jackal dared to engage, instead choosing to turn and flee.

“You think to buy time with this tactic?”

In the sky, the protector from the Blood Dragon Hall of the Dragon Transformation Sect saw this and immediately grasped Zhou Mingde’s intention.

Then, a flash of insight in his eyes, he looked toward the Zhou Family Mountain gate and murmured to himself, “So, it seems the Mountain Protection Array is indeed on the verge of collapsing!”

As he spoke, a roar like the chant of a dragon and the growl of a tiger came from his throat.

Upon hearing this roar, the two third-tier superior Demon Beasts that were originally pursuing the Green Flood Dragon and Fire Divine Jackal both halted their movements. They immediately gave up the chase and turned back to continue their assault on the gates of Zhou Family Mountain.

Seeing that they were no longer being pursued, the Green Flood Dragon and Fire Divine Jackal made a comeback, constantly disrupting their attackers and seizing the opportunity to launch sneak attacks on the second and first-tier Demon Beasts.

Such actions infuriated the several third-tier Demon Beasts, causing them to bellow in anger incessantly.

The protector from the Dragon Transformation Sect’s Blood Dragon Hall, upon seeing this, had no choice but to call all the dispersed Demon Beasts back together, concentrating their power on a single point and giving the Green Flood Dragon and Fire Divine Jackal no chance for harassment.

But this strategy only managed to reduce the number of successful attacks by the Green Flood Dragon; it couldn’t entirely prevent second-tier Demon Beasts from being taken out by its long-range attacks.

With this hit-and-run tactic, in just a short span of half an hour, the Green Flood Dragon and Fire Divine Jackal had killed ten second-tier Demon Beasts and even inflicted serious external injuries on the One-Horned Fire Wolf.

Crack!

Suddenly, a faint noise came from above the gates of Zhou Family Mountain — a crack had appeared on the surface of the Array Protective Shield.

Even though the crack was quickly repaired, the sight of it left the protector from the Blood Dragon Hall greatly excited. He vigorously urged the Demon Beasts to maintain their offensive.

Subsequently, one crack after another appeared, to the point that even the Qi Refinement Realm Loose Cultivators within the gates of Zhou Family Mountain could see them.

“Damn, the formation is about to break!”

One Loose Cultivator, upon seeing the crack, couldn’t help but turn pale and exclaimed in shock.

Then, this exclamation triggered a collapse among many other Loose Cultivators.

“Liars, all the Zhou Family people are liars! Didn’t they say the Mountain Protection Array was unbreakable? How could it not hold up now!”

The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.

One emotionally collapsed Loose Cultivator glared angrily at the surrounding Zhou Family Cultivators, his gaze as ferocious as if he wanted to devour them.

And in this moment, even the Zhou Family Cultivators themselves were each as panic-stricken as could be, utterly unable to respond to these Loose Cultivators’ questions.

“What’s the panic? So what if the big formation breaks? Who said that without a formation, our Zhou Family can’t beat those beasts?”

At the critical moment, Zhou Chun’s resounding words rang out beside the ears of all the Loose Cultivators, instantly suppressing all negative remarks.

“Everyone, don’t panic,” he said calmly, “our Zhou Family still hasn’t used all our trump cards, victory will definitely belong to us!”

Does the Zhou Family still have trump cards?

The Zhou Family Cultivators and Loose Cultivators who heard Zhou Chun’s words all showed a moment of surprise, and a gleam of hope suddenly appeared in their eyes.

Confidence returned somewhat.

Zhou Chun’s authoritative tone did not seem deceptive, coupled with his well-known reputation within the Zhou Family, he indeed successfully calmed the crowd at this time.

But in reality, if they could look closely, they would see that Zhou Chun’s eyes were also filled with seriousness, even anxiety.

Why hasn’t the reinforcement from Hongya Marketplace arrived yet?

Could they all be mistaken—that Green Lotus Temple really intended to let the Beast Tide invade Lianzhou territory?

Zhou Chun’s gaze turned to the sky beyond the mountain gates, his heart in extreme agony.

If no reinforcements arrived, the Zhou Family was indeed set to suffer tremendous losses today!

Of course, he did have a card up his sleeve, but that could only buy them some time to retreat at best; it could not save the destiny of the Zhou Family from ruin.

Finally, as Zhou Chun watched anxiously, he saw a green Escape Light appear in the distant sky, speeding towards their location at extreme velocity.

“Is that…”

Observing the Escape Light that moved fast like green lightning, Zhou Chun’s expression froze, feeling as though the speed was a bit too fast.

Outside, the protector from the Blood Dragon Hall also seemed to sense something and couldn’t help but look back at the sky.

Then, an exclamation filled with terror burst forth from him,

“Golden Core Stage Cultivator!!”

Before the words even finished, he swiftly formed hand seals and cast spells, his body flashing with yellow light as he plunged headfirst into the ground.
