System's Super Sect-Chapter 784 - 776, Demon Power Shield

"Rear demon troops, hear the order, activate the Demon Pills!"

Huaikong immediately shouted loudly.

The moment Huaikong’s voice fell, the originally scattered rear demon troops began to gather once again.

After all, the Demon Emperor is the strongest of the Demon Race.

With the Demon Emperor present, they have confidence.

After the gathering of millions of demons, the Demon Pills within their bodies immediately began to activate, and the surging demon qi instantly rippled around them. Witnessing this scene, the high-ranking members of the Hundred Sects Alliance glanced at each other, utterly puzzled.

"What’s going on?"

"Demon Pill?"

"What is a Demon Pill?"

Amidst these discussions, the Demon-slaying Crossbows once again tightened their bowstrings.

One hundred thousand Demon-Slaying Arrows were loaded within a dozen breaths, then aimed at the rear of the demon troops under the confident gaze of the Hundred Sects Alliance soldiers.

The rain of arrows, dense enough to cover the sky, rushed over in an instant, and the Hundred Sects Alliance soldiers seemed to once again envision the demise of the demon horde.

At this moment, Huaikong nervously watched Wen Ping, waiting for Wen Ping’s next command.

"Raise the demon power!"

Just as the last word left Huaikong’s mouth, he immediately shouted towards the demon race, "Rear demon troops, raise the demon power!"

Words fell!

Countless demons’ surging demon qi around them rose into the sky like umbrellas. Though a single piece of demon qi is indeed insignificant, especially for the Demon Race members who are still unrefined in their use of demon power, this bit of demon power is not yet usable against enemies.

But at the moment when the demon power of tens of thousands of demons rose, sheets of golden demon power began to converge, then stood like a shield over the heads of the demon horde. At that moment, the rain of Demon-Slaying Arrows descended.

Swish!

Tens of thousands of arrows fell simultaneously, scaring many demons below to close their eyes.

Yet a few moments later, they slowly opened their eyes, finding themselves unharmed, and the surrounding demons were unharmed too.

A glance overhead, and the demons were in uproar.

The Demon-Slaying Arrows, which could penetrate their demon bodies before, were now all blocked by their demon power mid-air.

It now truly looked like a black cloud floating above the heads of the demons.

"The Demon Race will surely win!"

"The Demon Race will surely win!"

In the next second, the demons shouted in unison, their morale instantly soared.

The Hundred Sects Alliance troops, witnessing this scene, were dumbfounded once more.

Even Wen Venerable, who was fighting Taishan, couldn’t help but pause, staring at this scene.

None could comprehend what the layer of golden light shield was.

"Fire again!"

The Silver Level Chief commanding the Demon-slaying Crossbows on the Hundred Sects Alliance side was flustered.

Ordered the coalition to reload the Demon-Slaying Arrows once again.

A dozen breaths later, a hundred thousand Demon-Slaying Arrows were loaded once more.

"Fire!" 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Upon command, a hundred thousand Demon-Slaying Arrows were once again shot towards the demon horde.

Yet still, as before, when the arrows hit the shield formed by the demon power, they could not advance any further.

The high-ranking members of the Hundred Sects Alliance were completely panicked this time.

"What’s the matter?"

"What is blocking the Demon-Slaying Arrows?"

Taishan, fighting Wen Venerable from afar, burst into laughter, "Hundred Sects Alliance, did you truly think our Demon Race is the same as before? This is demon power, demon power! Your ignorance is laughable to me."

After Taishan’s taunt, the Demon Race erupted again.

"The Demon Race will surely win!"

"The Demon Race will surely win!"

With the tide-like sound, the Hundred Sects Alliance troops hurriedly reloaded the Demon-Slaying Arrows once more.

However, this was merely a futile effort.

The third volley, the fourth volley, were still ineffective.

And by the fourth time, they were left with only one Demon-Slaying Arrow in hand.

Witnessing this scene, Huaikong chuckled, "Sect Leader, so demon power can be used like this."

Wen Ping said, "Demon power is different from vein qi; demon power itself is a weapon. Once you learn to wield it, it can rival our Human Race’s Vein Technique. As your cultivation years increase, demon power will grow stronger; you must have sensed this."

Huaikong nodded, "I have deeply felt it!"

"Alright, it’s time for you to join the battle too."

Wen Ping didn’t want to continue dragging this on—it would only increase the Demon Race’s casualties.

This war must ultimately be ended by experts above Earth Unrestricted.

Now it’s time for high combat power to show its strength.

"Sect Leader Wen, we’re on it!" Shifeng first transformed into the Ten-tailed Demon Fox, turning into a white rainbow charging towards the Hundred Sects Alliance troops.

The powerful aura belonging to the Demon God also pressed down below.

The members of the Hundred Sects Alliance, seeing this situation, involuntarily took a few steps back.

Huaikong and the other demons immediately followed.

"Zi Ran, what about us, Sect Leader?"

"They are all participating in the battle." Wen Ping’s original plan was to have them help command the Demon Race, but now it seems better for them to enter the battle.

Because many Demon Kings, led by He Nian, have broken into the Hundred Sects Alliance from the flank, they need support at this moment.

With the help of Zi Ran and others, the Demon Race can better tear open a gap on the front to support He Nian.

"Sect Leader, we are going in too."

Zi Ran and others immediately rode the Great Demon of the Wing Race downwards.

Just then, a demon suddenly misused its demon power.

It grabbed the Demon-Slaying Arrow that was blocked by its demon power, and originally capable of causing great harm to the Demon Race, the Dragon Wall Text was rendered useless. Wrapped by the demon power, the demon suddenly had a bright idea and threw the Demon-Slaying Arrow into the Hundred Sects Alliance troops.

Seeing this scene, the demons around were enlightened, each stopped their demon power and grabbed the Demon-Slaying Arrow, mimicking the previous demon, they threw it into the troops of the Hundred Sects Alliance.

At first, it was one or two arrows.

Then it became hundreds.

Finally, thousands upon thousands of Demon-Slaying Arrows were thrown by the demon hordes.

The "dark cloud" of Demon-Slaying Arrows drifted above the Hundred Sects Alliance.

Not to mention the Dragon Wall Text, the sheer size of the Demon-Slaying Arrows falling from hundreds of meters above was not something human bodies could withstand.

"Ah!"

With a scream, the first person to be shot dead by a Demon-Slaying Arrow appeared!

Then came the second, the third...

In an instant, a field of the allied troops fell under the Demon-Slaying Arrows.

The demon race’s morale soared again, rushing into the troops as if fearless.

They could resist somewhat initially, but as the demon race charged more fiercely, the front of the allied troops collapsed, and those in the rear started to retreat in fear. Along with Shifeng and Huaikong integrating into the battle, the Hundred Sects Alliance’s front collapsed instantly.

Wen Ping was not surprised by this.

If there wasn’t Shrouding Sky Tower backing them up, the current Hundred Sects Alliance really wouldn’t stand a chance against the demon race.

Their understanding of the demon race is still stuck in the distant past, they are oblivious to the current demon race, demon power, and demon pill.

...

Twenty miles outside of Wangchuan Mountain Range.

In the high sky, Di Ting and others watching this scene had no intention of taking action yet.

Frankly speaking.

What happens to the Hundred Sects Alliance is none of their concern.

A force without a single Earth Unrestricted Expert is worth nothing in Heaven-Gazing Gorge.

"Just two Demon Gods?" Di Ting listened to the sounds of the battlefield, with a trace of contemplation on his face.

The demon race of Heaven and Earth Lake is indeed extraordinary, but seemingly lacks the ability to kill Ghost Bats like them.

Earth Unrestricted Middle Realm Demon God?

Why hasn’t one appeared?

With these doubts, Di Ting continued to watch from afar.

...

At this moment, the Hundred Sects Alliance troops were already in retreat.

As they say, defeat is like a landslide.

Once morale falls to the bottom, no matter how many people there are, it is all in vain.

Especially when Huaikong stepped on Wen Venerable, the retreat of the Hundred Sects Alliance became even more frantic.

"Wen Venerable."

"We demons only have those three habitats at Demon Emperor Lake, the other 105 lakes are yours, the Human Race’s, but why do you still want to come here?"

"The contract my father signed with your Hundred Sects Alliance, we demons have always adhered to it, never stepping out of Demon Emperor Lake. But why do you still wish to annihilate us?"

Huaikong questioned coldly, standing atop Wen Venerable in his Taotie form.

Wen Venerable explained painfully, "We only came to crusade the Immortal Sect, never intended to attack the Demon Race."

"And the matters of the Demon Realm, do they not exist?" Huaikong questioned again.

Wen Venerable did not continue to explain, knowing that having fallen into the hands of the new Demon Emperor, survival was nearly impossible.

"Victory or defeat, decide as you wish!"

Wen Venerable hated no one, just resented those of Shrouding Sky Tower.

They urged him to strike the Immortal Sect, but now the Hundred Sects Alliance was crushed, they have yet to appear.

As Wen Venerable closed his eyes, Huaikong stepped down directly.

Crack!

It was as if squashing an insect.

Then, Huaikong let out a sky-shaking roar, causing the pace of the retreating Hundred Sects Alliance troops to quicken.

Just then, Wen Ping spoke.

"Everyone retreat!"

A call made the pursuing Shifeng and other demons halt, even He Nian did not understand why their Sect Leader suddenly ordered a retreat.

Weren’t they clearly victorious and advancing?

Though puzzled, He Nian began to call out, ordering the pursuing demon race to stop.

Seeing this, Huaikong also coldly said to the demon race, "Did you not hear?"

With Huaikong’s thunderous voice, the demon army finally stopped and began to retreat.
