I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm-Chapter 436 - 255: Ambush and Counterattack (Part 2)

More than thirty warships of the Nine Demons Sect came roaring, surrounding Li Mu and the others within the Fog Array.

On the flagship made from a demon dragon’s bones, seven Demon Venerables looked towards Ancestor Wutian Demon, discussing attack strategies.

Currently, Qing Xuan Sect—Venerable Qingfeng and a few core Nascent Soul True Monarchs were surrounded by them, capturing them was only a matter of time. However, the few people of Qing Xuan Sect suddenly deployed a not insignificant Fog Illusion Array, obscuring the situation inside.

Fearing that they would fight desperately like trapped beasts when cornered, this made them somewhat cautious.

"Ancestor, the people from Qing Xuan Sect haven’t escaped. They’ve deployed an Array Artifact and set up an Array; should we be more cautious, first send some disciples to probe a bit, and try to break the array?" You Ming Venerable of Yin Soul Sect asked Ancestor Wutian Demon for instructions.

"You Ming, you’re too timid. Qing Xuan Sect is just a few kittens; just a mere Illusion Array has scared you!" Xue Tu Demon Venerable of the Blood God Sect laughed mockingly.

"Indeed, the disciples of Qing Xuan Sect are not formidable, but their founder—Qingxuan Ascendant—is not someone to be trifled with. He might have left his disciples some aces up their sleeves. Xue Tu, if you’re not afraid, lead the disciples of the Blood Demon Sect into the array first! We’ll support you!" You Ming Demon Venerable sneered coldly and suggested.

"Ha! Don’t try to provoke me. How to act is up to the Ancestor’s arrangement!" Xue Tu Demon Venerable did not engage and looked to Ancestor Wutian Demon for instructions.

"Just a few remnants of the Qing Xuan Sect, Ancestor, let our White Bone Sect handle it! But, mark my words, I want the corpse of Venerable Qingfeng!" Jiu Gu Demon Venerable of the White Bone Sect smiled arrogantly, offering to fight to Ancestor Wutian Demon.

Upon hearing this, the Demon Venerables furrowed their brows with varied expressions; they were not willing to let Jiu Gu Demon Venerable take the credit and the spoils of Venerable Qingfeng.

"Jiu Gu, don’t think too highly of yourself. Ancestor, I’m also willing to go!"

"Just a few remnants of the Qing Xuan Sect, why bother with Jiu Gu? Celestial Dove two masters, let my subordinates handle it!"

...

As Jiu Gu Demon Venerable volunteered, the other Demon Venerables immediately clamored for the chance. The remnants of the Qing Xuan Sect were already meat on the chopping block; whoever makes the first cut would claim the largest share. This was no time for politeness.

Ancestor Wutian Demon looked at his subordinates scrambling like vultures over food, not angered but pleased—morale was high.

However, when Ancestor Wutian Demon sent his Divine Sense into the encircled Fog Array below, he couldn’t help but feel a strange sensation. He didn’t know what kind of Array this was, but it could block his Divine Thought, and the aura within made him sense a hint of danger.

Indeed, Qing Xuan Sect should not be underestimated! Even at this moment, they still have such heritage.

The eyes of Ancestor Wutian Demon flashed with peculiar emotion, but quickly vanished. Now, the few from Qing Xuan Sect were cornered; relying on a bit of Sect heritage and array techniques, they’re not capable of overturning the sky.

Ancestor Wutian Demon quickly made a decision, looking at his quarreling subordinates and concluded, "Stop fighting amongst yourselves! First, we’ll attack using the warships; if that fails to break the array, then Si Li and Xue Tu will lead the charge, and we will support from the side. If a flaw in the array is found, we will break it together!"

"As you command!"

The demon venerables’ debate abruptly ceased, they nodded in agreement and ordered their subordinates to begin attacking the array.

Soon, thirty-seven warships began firing at the Fog Illusion Array below, unleashing a torrent of firepower: Spirit Cannons, Netherworld Thunder Cannons, Blood Elemental Spirit Cannons, ..., colorful beams of spirit cannons flooded down intensely.

However, within the three to four kilometers range covered by the Fog Protection Array, countless cannon blasts poured into the array. Inside, a series of muffled explosions sounded, followed by silence.

After several rounds of spirit cannon shots, there was nothing gained but the loss of Spirit Stones and Spiritual Materials, with no other effect.

"Ancestor, let us go!" Si Li Demon Venerable impatiently requested from Ancestor Wutian Demon.

"Go!" Ancestor Wutian Demon glanced at Si Li Venerable and Xue Tu Demon Venerable, nodding in approval.

In the next moment, Si Li Venerable and Xue Tu Demon Venerable led a group of subordinates, summoning countless Copper Corpses, Silver Corpses, and Flying Corpses, forming a Corpse Mountain, numbering in the thousands, charging mightily towards the Fog Array.

The Corpse Mountain surged like a flood; countless copper, silver, and flying corpses, covered in Blood Shadows, transformed into red meteor-like shadows, rushing into the pervasive fog.

Amid this smoke-like Corpse Mountain, the two demon venerables ascended controlling the sky. Surrounding them were twelve Flying Golden Corpses, resembling golden rainbows traversing the sky, leaving behind radiant streaks of golden light. The Sea of Blood, under their control, surged ferociously like wrathful waves; the rolling blood tide collided with the dense fog, erupting in thunderous roars.

As the demon cultivators and the Mount of Corpses and Sea of Blood entered the array, the Fog Array was activated instantly, with fierce beast roars and the majestic sound of dragon chants erupting, as if ancient giant beasts had awakened, breaking the seal. At the same time, sword humming resonated, seemingly countless immortals were swinging swords questioning the heavens, piercing the skies.

...

The array mist emitted did not disperse but gathered together, the powerful array power isolating the Divine Thoughts outside the array.

Within the array, the majestic sound of dragon roars, beast growls, fierce clashes, sword hums, battle cries, screams, were continuous, tumultuous; an extremely intense battle was taking place within,

However, the array mist acted like a barrier, isolating all this outside. Blocked by the array mist, the Demon Venerables couldn’t catch a glimpse of what’s happening inside!

"Si Li, Xue Tu, what’s taking so long! Why not break the array first!"

"Should we go in to help? This array isn’t that formidable!"
