390: A cruel poisonous fog!

As the cold voice rang out, a powerful pressure suddenly descended!

In that same instant, the surging tsunami seemed to be imprisoned by some force, its momentum completely vanishing!

A massive Great Peng dove down from the clouds, accompanied by a piercing screech, as sound waves transformed into a shockwave sweeping toward the human defense line!

Everyone looked horrified; that terrifying sound wave was enough to make them perish!

"Hmph!"

At the critical moment, Murong Hai let out a cold snort. The space above the entire defense line directly boiled and twisted, changing the spatial vibration frequency and easily neutralizing those sound waves.

Murong Hai's gaze fell upon the Great Peng, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes. "It's you again, Peng Li. I plucked your feathers last time, and yet you dare to come again today. This time, I'll break your wings!"

That Great Peng was named Peng Li, an Eighth-Rank Extreme Realm Great Demon. From Murong Hai's words, it was clear this wasn't the first time the two sides had clashed.

Peng Li snorted coldly and said, "Murong Hai! I haven't settled the last score with you yet! Today, I will definitely break your human defense!"

"Hahaha! You talk a big game! Since you're so confident, then come and try."

Murong Hai's figure soared into the sky!

At the same time, the space around Peng Li suddenly twisted. In the next second, countless giant hands reached out and directly grabbed its body!

Peng Li's expression changed drastically. Without time to think, it immediately erupted with a powerful force, forcibly shaking off those giant hands. However, it was also forced back, with feathers fluttering away in the wind.

"Dammit! Your cultivation base has increased again?!"

Peng Li's face looked a bit grim. It hadn't expected that after not fighting for a while, the opponent had actually made another breakthrough!

Murong Hai smiled slightly. "Just a stroke of luck. I'm only at the Half-Step Ninth Rank."

Half-Step Ninth Rank!

Murong Hai's current strength had already reached the same realm as Ye Gaoyuan!

Since returning from the battle in the sea region, the Dragon Country had focused on cultivating them, providing a tilt in resources, so their cultivation bases had naturally risen!

Half-Step Ninth Rank was also the limit that a monstrous talent like Murong Hai could reach.

After all, he wasn't Fang Bai; the Ninth Rank wasn't something one could break through just by saying so.

"Damn it!"

Peng Li's eyes looked as if they were about to spit fire!

Jealousy! Resentment! And a hint of... envy!

Although the Human Race was an incredibly weak existence compared to the Demon Race, the talent of some among them was much more powerful than that of the Demon Race!

This was true for most human martial artists!

Humans' cultivation talent was simply higher than that of the Demon Race! If given enough resources, they would become an army that threatened the status of the Demon Race!

This was not something the Demon Race wanted to see, which was why they couldn't help but launch an offensive against the Human Race, precisely to nip this race in the bud!

"So what if you're Half-Step Ninth Rank? We have more demons!"

As Peng Li spoke, three more powerful auras descended!

Every single one was an Eighth-Rank Extreme Realm!

Murong Hai's gaze was indifferent as he slowly said, "Since you want to seek death, then today, I shall slaughter you all!"

The Rain King's figure arrived by his side, also releasing his aura to counter them. Although his aura wasn't as powerful as Murong Hai's, he was still an Eighth-Rank Extreme Realm!

"Now you have nothing to say, right? You take on three."

Murong Hai: ???

...At another defense line, the Demon Race army also launched an invasion.

They were also led by Eighth-Rank Extreme Realm experts, with the army pressing down!

"Lord Azure King, the Demon Race has launched a surprise attack on all our defense lines this time, and their troop strength is even more substantial than the previous times!"

A subordinate reported to the Azure King, who was dressed in azure robes.

The Azure King's gaze was cold. She looked at the demon army surging forward and spoke icily, "Everyone, prepare to face death!"

Everyone's expressions immediately became tense, while their eyes simultaneously showed a hint of determination!

For them now, there was no way back; they could only fight!

Boom!

Two Eighth-Rank Extreme Realm auras suddenly descended, locking onto the Azure King.

The latter's delicate brows furrowed slightly, and then she said coldly, "Come then!"

...The third defense line, the only waterway among the Dragon Country's defense lines!

And here, the Sea King was stationed!

"Lord Sea King, battles have already broken out at the other defense lines."

The Sea King nodded and said, "I know."

At this moment, the soldiers on the defense line were waiting in full battle array, a murderous aura permeating everyone's hearts.

From the moment they stepped onto the battlefield, they were already prepared for sacrifice!

However, while the wars on the other defense lines had been raging for fifteen minutes, there had been no demon invasion here yet.

Because it was a waterway, they had been under constant attack by sea demons, but just a month ago, the sea demon army retreated and inexplicably disappeared from the battlefield, giving the Human Race space to catch their breath.

No one knew why the Sea Demon Race acted this way, but over a month of peace had allowed everyone to rest and reorganize.

"Do these Sea Demon Race members have some other conspiracy?"

The Sea King looked deep into the distance across the sea, somewhat puzzled.

At that moment, his expression shifted, and he said in a deep voice, "Everyone! Prepare for battle!"

The sound of gongs and drums rang out, and everyone's expressions became increasingly solemn!

Soon, in everyone's sight, a dense mass of black shadows rushed toward them at a very high speed!

"They're approaching very fast! Watch out!"

"Damn it! Are these beasts in a hurry to be reincarnated?"

"Eh? Something's not right. Their formation is different from before; it's so chaotic, it seems like..."

"It seems like something is chasing them from behind!"

"Holy crap! Are you kidding me?"

"..."

Gradually, everyone noticed something was wrong because they found those Demon Beasts' expressions filled with fear and panic, lacking any momentum whatsoever; it was more like they were... running away!

Running toward their direction?

The Sea King's expression showed a hint of surprise; even he hadn't figured out the reason. What surprised him even more was that the ones running the fastest were actually Eighth-Rank Extreme Realm Great Demons!

Extreme Realm Great Demons are running away in a panic?

No matter how you looked at it, this was absurd!

Suddenly, a strange green light abruptly appeared, and then that green light quickly covered the demon swarms!

Wails rang out one after another, and the entire demon army was now utterly routed!

"It's... poison!"

The Sea King had a sharp eye and recognized the essence of that energy at a glance!

Poison!

A very terrifying toxin!

Under that toxin, swaths of Demon Beasts began to die!

They died too quickly; the toxin was airborne, and wherever it passed, the Demon Beasts were wiped out!

Sixth-ranks died in an instant... Seventh-ranks died in an instant... Eighth-ranks... died in an instant!!!"

Even the Eighth-Rank Demon Lords died with their eyes open in fear!

Only those two Extreme Realm Great Demons managed to resist for a moment, but those toxins quickly dismantled their energy, and countless toxins bored into their bodies!

"No!"

As two wails rang out, those two Eighth-Rank Extreme Realm Great Demons perished!
