Chapter 120 Seeking Help from the Upper Realm

Chapter 120 Seeking Aid from the Upper Realm

Seeing Zhang Yuhe and Feng Xiaotian arrive, the Demon God Palace was thrown into complete chaos.

Although they had already activated the Demon God Palace’s defensive Formation, everyone knew that without a Mahayana Realm Cultivator presiding over it, even the strongest defensive Formation would not be able to stop Zhang Yuhe and Feng Xiaotian, two Mahayana Cultivators.

It would be breached sooner or later.

Feng Xiaotian looked at the Demon God Palace on the mountain peak, shrouded by a faint blue light curtain, and his brows furrowed slightly.

He waved his right hand, and a golden seal flew out.

The seal rapidly expanded and smashed down fiercely towards the light curtain above the palace.

Boom…

The golden seal struck the light curtain with a thunderous roar.

The blue light curtain swayed slightly a few times, then returned to normal.

Despite this, the Demon Race Cultivators guarding the palace showed no smiles on their faces.

They knew this was just the beginning.

If Feng Xiaotian was allowed to attack continuously, no matter how strong the Demon God Palace’s defensive Formation was, it would only last for a while longer.

Feng Xiaotian looked at the blue light curtain above the Demon God Palace, feeling a little troubled.

Through his recent attempt, he had a general understanding of the Demon God Palace’s defensive Formation.

In his opinion, the Demon God Palace’s defense was not much worse than Suppressing Demon City’s.

The only difference was that there was no Mahayana Realm Cultivator stationed in the Demon God Palace.

Every attack he launched could solidly land on the defensive light curtain, without worrying about being intercepted.

Despite this, if he relied on himself alone to completely break through this defensive light curtain, it would take at least a year of continuous attacks.

And this was without accounting for the Formation’s self-recovery ability.

In reality, the time required might be even longer.

Thinking of this, he turned to Zhang Yuhe and said, “Senior Brother, the Demon God Palace’s defense is too strong.

It will take a lot of time to break through it.

Why don’t we go to other places first?”

“We can wait until the Demon Suppression Army from Yu Fan Heaven arrives, then break it together.”

“No need for such trouble, let me do it.”

Zhang Yuhe rejected Feng Xiaotian’s suggestion.

How long would it take for the Demon Suppression Army from Yu Fan Heaven to arrive?

There were still so many Demon Race members in Yu Fan Heaven; it would probably take several decades for the Demon Suppression Army to largely clear them out.

He was not in the mood to keep waiting like that.

As for going to other places first? Zhang Yuhe had no interest at all.

The richest place in the entire Demon Realm was undoubtedly the Demon God Palace.

As long as the Demon God Palace was breached, the resources collected would definitely be enough to forge High Grade Lightning Absorbing Pillars.

Even Feng Xiaotian, with these resources, might be able to Ascend to the Immortal Realm in the future.

Since that was the case, why should they seek something far away when it was close at hand?

As for the Demon God Palace’s defensive Formation? Zhang Yuhe did not take it seriously.

He was best at breaking Formations.

Especially for a purely defensive Formation like this, he could be said to have a lot of experience.

Zhang Yuhe soared into the air and circled the Demon God Palace twice.

After roughly understanding the surrounding environment and terrain, he waved his right hand.

Pillars reaching to the sky rapidly fell around the outer perimeter of the Demon God Palace.

These tall pillars were the Lightning Absorbing Pillars he had used to set up the Ren Water Lightning Absorption Array earlier.

One hundred and eight Lightning Absorbing Pillars fell on all sides of the Demon God Palace.

These Lightning Absorbing Pillars shimmered with a rich spiritual light; each one was a Medium Grade Spirit Treasure.

Seeing Zhang Yuhe’s actions, Feng Xiaotian curiously asked, “Senior Brother, are you going to break a Formation with a Formation?”

“Yes.” Zhang Yuhe nodded in response.

When he was forging these Lightning Absorbing Pillars, he had considered that if so many Medium Grade Spirit Treasures were only used to set up the Ren Water Lightning Absorption Array, it would be too wasteful.

For this reason, he used these Lightning Absorbing Pillars as a Foundation and specifically deduced an offensive Formation: the Myriad Thunder Annihilation Formation.

After all one hundred and eight Lightning Absorbing Pillars were set up, Zhang Yuhe stood in mid-air, continuously carving in the Void Realm with his right hand.

Lines of Formation rapidly flashed, connecting the Lightning Absorbing Pillars together.

Half an hour later, as the last Formation line was carved, Zhang Yuhe formed a spell seal and shouted, “Myriad Thunder Annihilation Formation, activate!”

In an instant, all one hundred and eight Lightning Absorbing Pillars simultaneously emitted purple light.

The dazzling light surged upwards along the Lightning Absorbing Pillars, directly into the sky.

The purple light converged in the sky, and a huge vortex slowly formed.

Boom…

A thick bolt of lightning rapidly generated from the vortex and struck directly down towards the Demon God Palace.

The blue light curtain covering the Demon God Palace instantly vibrated violently.

Immediately after, bolts of lightning rapidly generated and continuously struck the Demon God Palace.

Each of these lightning bolts was equivalent to a full-power strike from a Mahayana Cultivator.

However, the frequency of the lightning attacks was completely incomparable to that of a Cultivator.

The Cultivators inside the Demon God Palace, seeing the lightning continuously striking down, felt as if they were witnessing the end of the world.

At this point, they already understood that the time left for them was running out.

A white-haired Demon Race Elder looked at the lightning rapidly striking down from the sky, remaining silent for a long time.

This person was Ning Hefeng, the Elder in charge of staying behind, arranged by Mo Yuetian, with a Body Integration Late Stage cultivation.

To conquer the Yu Fan Heaven World, Mo Yuetian had almost completely mobilized all the elite forces from the Demon Realm.

Ning Hefeng was currently the only Body Integration Cultivator in the Demon Realm.

Watching the lightning strike down like raindrops from the sky, Ning Hefeng knew that the Demon God Palace’s defensive Formation would not last much longer.

He quickly turned and came to a solemn great hall.

In the center of the great hall, there was an profound Formation platform.

Ning Hefeng stepped onto the Formation platform, took out a black crystal, and placed it into the central groove of the Formation platform.

Immediately after, he formed spell seals with one hand while silently praying.

“Ning Hefeng, Elder of the Cangyun Realm Demon God Palace, has an important matter to report to the Demon Gods of the Upper Realm.”

“The Cangyun Realm is suffering an invasion from Cultivators; please, Demon Gods of the Upper Realm, descend and provide support.”

Ning Hefeng continuously formed spell seals with his hands and repeated his prayers.

He was attempting to seek aid from the Demon Gods of the Upper Realm.

At this point, it was impossible for them to resist the invasion from Yu Fan Heaven on their own.

However, contacting the Upper Realm was not as simple as it seemed.

Although there had always been a communication Formation connected to the Upper Realm in the Demon God Palace, the cost of activating this Formation was extremely high.

The cost mentioned here was not only for the Demon God Palace but also for the Demon Gods of the Upper Realm.

Therefore, this communication Formation spanning the Immortal and Mortal Realms had only been activated twice since its establishment.

The first time was for a trial run, and the second was when Mo Yuetian reported a special matter to the Upper Realm.

Because the Demon Gods of the Upper Realm also incurred a very high cost to receive messages, the Demon God Palace’s calls did not necessarily receive a response.

Since the news of Mo Yuetian’s demise arrived, Ning Hefeng had been attempting to communicate with the Upper Realm through the communication Formation every day.

Unfortunately, he had never received a response.

Simply put, this communication Formation spanning the Immortal and Mortal Realms required both sides to be in an activated state to communicate.

Currently, the Upper Realm’s communication Formation should not be activated.

Therefore, no matter how Ning Hefeng called out, he received no response.

But he had no retreat.

This was their last straw.

Even if there was only a slim possibility, he had to keep trying.

Ning Hefeng continuously prayed, hoping for a miracle to appear.
