Cultivating Through The Game-Chapter 467 - 280: Cannot See Through
All sorts of demons surged toward Beifeng City like a tide, the black crowd crashing against the walls and swiftly climbing upwards.
A rain of arrows fell from above the city walls, each arrow burning with a light that dispels evil, piercing through the black mist and pinning the demons to the ground.
"Don't let them climb up!" The city defense commander shouted loudly as he watched the black tide rushing upwards beneath.
Boom! A blade light spanning a hundred meters cut through thousands of meters, severing the black tide, as golden flames erupted from where the blade had swept, dispersing the dark mist.
Roar~ Hiss~ Ah~ An ear-piercing roar echoed from the black mist, and the black tide submerged the flames within the mist, continuing to surge toward the walls; the number of demons seemed endless.
Swish swish swish~ Three sword beams sliced straight through the black demon tide, carving out large vacant areas amongst the demons, with hundreds and thousands being shredded by the blade beams.
The demon-breaking power within the blade beams easily extinguished the demonic qi within the demons, killing them completely.
Lu Yu had already turned off the system notification sounds; from the rising experience points, Lu Yu roughly estimated that his single attack killed at least over a thousand demons.
The spiritual power consumed within his dantian was fully restored with each breath; Lu Yu raised his hand and unleashed three sword strikes again, each blade beam a hundred meters long sweeping over a thousand meters of battlefield, instantly slaughtering thousands of demons.
He alone could hold off one side, and the number of demons beneath the walls in front of him was the least, not even enough to form a human ladder.
For demons, whether there was a human ladder was irrelevant; their sharp claws could pierce the sturdy walls, allowing them to swiftly climb the walls that were dozens of meters high.
Sizzle sizzle sizzle~ The sound of bubbling grease echoed from the walls, as demons made contact with the exorcism seals affixed to the walls, their bodies burned by the seals, causing them to fall off the walls.
Bang bang bang~ A few lucky demons didn't touch the exorcism seals and had just climbed onto the walls but were quickly knocked off by the city defense soldiers wielding weapons before they could attack.
Just as Lu Yu saw the demon tide surging again and prepared to repeat his technique, a puffing sound echoed from the black mist.
His eyes sharpened, focusing on the direction of the sound, while he kept the Demon-Breaking Saber at his waist, toes gripping the ground, energy surging within him, directing spiritual power toward the saber.
Puff puff puff~ A great number of demons with fleshy wings on their backs charged towards the people on the walls.
Clang~ Swish swish swish~ A massive blade light soared diagonally into the sky, cutting into the group of winged demons, erupting with a multitude of fragmented blade beams that slaughtered most of the winged demons.
Swish! Another blade beam flew out, enveloping the remaining winged demons that had just gathered after the previous attack.
The winged demons fell from the sky like dumplings, smashing onto the ground amidst the demon tide, being trampled into pulp by the demons running on the ground.
The blade beams unleashed by the Demon-Breaking Saber have a one-hit-kill effect on the demons, with powerful demon-breaking capabilities.
This is the foundation that allows Lu Yu to stand alone against the tide.
Of course, the ocean of spiritual qi from the Eye of the Sea is also an indispensable crucial factor.
Chirp! A crisp phoenix cry caught Lu Yu's attention; he looked towards the left wall, where Yang Jiawei stood alone in mid-air, his divine weapon transforming into a fire phoenix, sweeping the demon tide, burning demons into ashes within the phoenix flames. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
The hundred-meter fire phoenix circled within the demon tide, transforming into a red and white sword that fell into Yang Jiawei's hands.
Even Martial Cultivators in the Core Formation Realm would face significant pressure trying to unleash large-range attacks like Lu Yu; the spiritual power consumption is tremendous, making it difficult to perform multiple times.
If the wall wasn't about to be drowned by the demon tide, leading to casualties among the Yang family disciples, Yang Jiawei wouldn't choose to unleash such large-range attacks.
For strong individuals in the Core Formation Realm, this dispersed power is highly consuming and deals low damage.
Low damage is relative only to the Core Formation Realm; dispersed attacks cannot cause fatal wounds to Martial Cultivators of the same realm.
Woosh woosh woosh~ As Yang Jiawei waved his hand, five pillars of fire sprayed from overhead, sweeping nearly a hundred meters over the walls to burn the climbing demons.
This type of conventional attack, with range and potency, Yang Jiawei can maintain it constantly, even for half a day without issue.
Seeing Yang Jiawei's attack method, Lu Yu's expression shifted; he placed his left hand on the wall, controlling the Celestial Falling Bright Flame within him to spread across the wall surface like a tide.
A wall of fire surged into the black mist; the demons climbing the wall could not withstand the roasting of the Celestial Falling Bright Flame, their bodies shrinking rapidly, turning into jerky, falling off the wall, turning to ashes in mid-air, dissipating with the wind.
Continuous attacks consume much less energy and can be far more effective on such a battlefield, but the fire wall created by Lu Yu can only burn on the wall and cannot spread into the black mist.
The demonic qi within the black mist resists the force of the flames, and its vast range imposes a greater burden on Lu Yu; keeping the fire wall affixed to the wall is the optimal range.
"There, move over there." A group of people traversed the demon tide within the black mist, demons around them seemingly blind, unable to see them.
The few supported and relied on the woman at their center, steadfastly advancing towards the light glowing within the black mist.
If not for this woman, they might have found themselves like wolves entering a tiger's den, akin to throwing buns to dogs, a futile sacrifice.
The source of the demonic qi was far more terrifying than they imagined.
As they approached, the group finally saw clearly; the firelight they saw was a wall ablaze with golden flames, ignited by Lu Yu, giving them a direction and leading them out of the bewildering black mist.
