Fantasy: Unparalleled Prince, Conquering the Heavens!-Chapter 770 - 764: Possessed by Demon_1

"The heart of a superior is indeed inscrutable!"

Elder Ming looked up, his gaze tinged with fear as he glanced towards the boundless Void, as if he could see an unfathomably profound and invincible emperor there.

With a single command, such a being could decide the fate of countless lives.

Take, for instance, the activation of the 'Star Devouring Formation'; he clearly could have refused.

Yet, for the benefit of his clan, he chose to sacrifice the Great Elder of the Ice Wing Clan and countless lives of his tribesmen. His sole aim was to annihilate the Great Qin Heavenly Court.

Why do the generals of Great Qin show no signs of panic?

Elder Ming shook his head, dismissing the thoughts, and turned to look at the composed Zhao Yun and the other generals, his brows furrowing slightly.

Shouldn't they be distraught at a time like this? Shouldn't they be organizing their military formations to break out of the 'Star Devouring Formation'? Why are they still unmoved, like spectators watching a play?

Could Great Qin still have a trump card?

This idea sprang into Elder Ming's mind, startling him.

"Refine them!"

"Blazing Inferno!" the Great Elder of the Ice Wing Clan roared, his hands forming seals as he fully activated the Starfall Formation.

Clusters of blood-red flames emerged, like dancing sprites or perhaps bloodless demons, radiating a terrifying heat that seemed to incinerate the starry sky itself.

However, a peculiar scene unfolded!

When the overwhelming Sea of Heavenly Fire descended upon the Great Qin soldiers, no screams were heard.

Did they all perish instantly? the Great Elder of the Ice Wing Clan wondered, his face etched with confusion. If they all died, there should be a vast surge of vital energy and blood, shouldn't there? Could it be...

A dreadful thought surfaced in the Great Elder's mind. He circulated immortal qi to his eyes and gazed towards the Sea of Heavenly Fire. Vaguely, through the blood-colored flames, he could discern figures standing tall, each enveloped in a faint white light that insulated them from the raging inferno.

"Impossible!" The Great Elder of the Ice Wing Clan's pupils contracted sharply. They are all unharmed? How can this be? The 'Star Devouring Formation' possesses the power to suppress even Golden Immortal experts; how could it fail to kill mere ordinary soldiers of Great Qin?

"Luck!"

"It must be sheer luck!" he snarled, gritting his teeth, though whether he was trying to convince himself or simply unwilling to face reality was unclear.

His hand seals changed!

The surging Sea of Heavenly Fire vanished, replaced by countless blood-red wind blades. They exuded an unparalleled sharpness, as if each wind blade were a rarely seen Divine Weapon.

How powerful were these wind blades?

Even a Profound Immortal Martial Artist observing from a great distance would feel a stinging sensation on their skin.

"Fall!" the Great Elder of the Ice Wing Clan bellowed. Countless wind blades plummeted, slashing horizontally and vertically at the Great Qin soldiers. Crisp metallic clashes resounded, and sparks flew everywhere, yet they still failed to harm the Qin troops in the slightest.

"Put some muscle into it!"

"Hitting like a kitten! Are you even a man?" the boisterous Zhang Fei taunted, stretching lazily as he reclined in the starry sky, showing no sign of battlefield tension. An unknowing observer might have thought he was enjoying a massage.

His words triggered uproarious laughter among the Great Qin soldiers.

"You're courting death!"

This wave of derisive laughter, like a demonic incantation piercing his eardrums, stabbed into the Great Elder of the Ice Wing Clan's soul, enraging him to the extreme and causing him to gradually lose his reason.

Only one thought remained in his mind: kill Zhang Fei!

Wisps of black Demonic Qi began to seep from his eyes. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

"Die!" the Great Elder of the Ice Wing Clan howled, his mental state shattering. Demonic Qi flooded his heart, and he completely lost his sanity, unleashing a torrent of rolling Demonic Qi that spread in all directions.

Any formation inscriptions that came into contact with the Demonic Qi swiftly turned black.

The fusion of Blood Evil Qi and Demonic Qi caused the power of the 'Star Devouring Formation' to multiply, devastating the Void, overturning heaven and earth, and shattering the cycle of Reincarnation.

"The Formation's power has increased!" Zhao Yun said in a grave tone, shooting a glance at Zhang Fei.

After the Great Elder of the Ice Wing Clan succumbed to demonic possession, the 'Star Devouring Formation' underwent a qualitative transformation, becoming a Level Six Demonic Formation.

"He's become possessed?" Zhang Fei spread his hands, feigning innocence. "I didn't do anything!"

He only said a couple of things! His ability to take a hit is just too weak!

ROAR!

With a savage roar, the Great Elder of the Ice Wing Clan's figure reappeared. His entire body had turned black, and his eyes were blood-red, like those of a beast, devoid of any rationality, filled only with the intent to slaughter.

This was the difference between demonic possession and the demonic path.

When Martial Artists succumbed to demonic possession, they completely lost their reason. They would mercilessly kill even their own kin and would remain immersed in slaughter unless they themselves were killed.

The demonic path, however, was different. It was a way to attain enlightenment, albeit one that was cruel and not accepted by the world.

In short, when encountering a Martial Artist possessed by a demon, one either had to kill them or flee far away.

"The... The Great Elder is possessed!"

Within the Ice Wing Lesser Thousand World, countless beings stared at the sky, dumbfounded.

The members of the Great Elder's own lineage found it especially hard to accept. How could he suddenly become possessed?

Not only them but even Elder Ming was somewhat surprised, though mostly he was speechless. To be driven to demonic possession by a few mere taunts truly showed how fragile the Great Elder's mental fortitude was.

This is bad! Song Yinglong, who had been intently watching the battle, showed a slight change in expression.

When he saw the Great Qin army withstand the fire and wind assaults of the 'Star Devouring Formation', he had been secretly delighted, thinking the Great Qin army could smoothly break the Formation.

But now, the Great Elder of the Ice Wing Clan was possessed!

The vile Formation has become a truly demonic one! What's the point in fighting now!

Despite these thoughts, he continued to watch the battlefield intently, a glimmer of hope and a silent prayer in his heart.

「...」

"All of you, attack together!" Zhao Yun commanded coldly from within the Formation, facing the rapidly approaching Great Elder of the Ice Wing Clan.

After succumbing to demonic possession, the Great Elder of the Ice Wing Clan's power neared the Golden Immortal Realm. While this might not be overwhelmingly strong on its own, within the Formation, he could mobilize its power at any time, making him difficult to handle.

They themselves were not afraid, but the safety of the twenty million Great Qin soldiers behind them could not be guaranteed.

The best solution was a swift and decisive suppression.

"Thunder's Wrath!"

"Ghost God Unparalleled!"

"Loyalty to Serve the Nation!"

"..."

The generals nodded, their weapons held ready, radiant with immortal light as they launched attacks from different directions.

Fifteen terrifying attacks tore through the starry sky.

Each strike carried the power to destroy heavens and sunder earth!

Each strike was imbued with a killing intent that made all living beings tremble!

ROAR!

The Great Elder of the Ice Wing Clan roared, making no attempt to dodge. He merely condensed several protective shields from Demonic Qi and directly met the terrifying onslaught.

BANG!

A deafening explosion.

Zhao Yun's attack descended, piercing the protective shields and penetrating the Great Elder of the Ice Wing Clan's skull. Blood splattered.

Even so, the Great Elder showed no signs of dying. His eyes blazed with ferocious light as he swung his hands, swatting towards Zhao Yun.

BOOM! BOOM!

Immediately following, the attacks of Lv Bu and Li Yuanba struck, hitting the Great Elder's hands.

Subsequently, the attacks from Wang Jian, Yue Fei, Zhang Fei, Xiang Yu, and the others landed one after another. They riddled the Great Elder with wounds, and blood flowed unceasingly until he lost all signs of life.

The Great Elder of the Ice Wing Clan... had fallen!

BUZZ...

Having lost its master, the 'Star Devouring Formation' began to tremble. Faint signs of collapse appeared, with cracks spreading across it.

"We won!"

"Wonderful!"

The observing Song Yinglong clenched his fists, waving them excitedly. But just then, a cold voice resounded, like a heavenly decree, bringing with it supreme pressure that made myriad living beings submit.

"Turn!"
