"Whoosh!"

"Bang!"

"Boom!"

...

Immortal Qi and demon Qi continually clashed, Spiritual Artifacts collided frequently, deafening explosions echoed endlessly within Myriad Demons Mountain.

Fen Yue Fairy and six other villagers from Junior Immortal Village, together with newly arrived Variable Immortal Emperor and other experts, engaged in a fierce battle of attack and defense against numerous members of the Demon Clan atop a peak over several thousand feet high.

Only sixteen-year-old Fen Yue Fairy, possessing an Innate Fire Spirit Root, had already reached an Immortal King Realm Cultivation. In the Immortal Realm, she was considered an extraordinarily gifted prodigy.

Trapped alongside Fen Yue Fairy were five other villagers from Junior Immortal Village, including one Immortal Emperor Realm Expert and four fifth-grade Immortal King Realm Experts.

This combination had formidable strength overall, and since the initial demonic attackers weren’t numerous, nor were there any demon experts comparable to the Immortal Emperor Realm, they managed to hold out until now.

Otherwise, before Variable Immortal Emperor and the other villagers from Junior Immortal Village arrived to assist, they would have become a feast for the Demon Clan.

When Fang Bai and the other villagers from Junior Immortal Village approached the mountain peak, they found Fen Yue Fairy and the other five villagers badly wounded with chaotic auras, who had already retreated behind Variable Immortal Emperor and twenty other Immortal Emperor Realm Experts, beginning to consume Immortal Pills and restore their injuries.

The arrival of Variable Immortal Emperor and the villagers quickly changed the dynamics of attack and defense, allowing the Junior Immortal Village to shift from defense to offense, while the demon experts retreated one after another.

Seeing his daughter Fen Yue Fairy injured, although not seriously, Variable Immortal Emperor felt heartbroken, his eyes reddened, and he let out continuous roars, frantically wielding his Immortal Artifact, sending stunning rays slicing through the void, carrying the majesty of an Immortal Emperor, attacking the demon experts.

Possessing four types of Innate Spiritual Roots, Variable Immortal Emperor had extraordinary abilities to challenge higher levels. Under his fierce assaults, many demon experts were sliced by his Immortal Artifact into blood mist, dying on the spot.

Covered in blood and with a ferocious visage, Variable Immortal Emperor not only intimidated the demon experts but also boosted the morale and fighting spirit of over a hundred villagers from Junior Immortal Village.

White Crane Immortal Emperor saw Variable Immortal Emperor and other villagers fighting bloodily and recklessly, thinking that this is Myriad Demons Mountain, territory of the Demon Clan. As time went on, more demons would gather, and if they got surrounded, escaping wouldn’t be easy.

"This is not a place to linger, let’s quickly return to Junior Immortal Village!"

White Crane Immortal Emperor gathered energy and raised his voice to remind the villagers from Junior Immortal Village. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Just then, several demon experts who had retreated to a distance let out howls towards the sky, urgent and sharp, filled with a killing aura as if playing a battle song of the Demon Clan.

"This is bad!"

White Crane Immortal Emperor’s face changed immediately, stomping his foot and shouting: "If we don’t leave quickly, it will be too late!"

He knew that the howls from those demon experts were summoning their kin, and in this Myriad Demons Mountain the number of demon experts was endless, including those with strength comparable to the Immortal Emperor Realm, enough to crush them.

The villagers from Junior Immortal Village, who were bloodthirsty, finally woke up.

However, at this moment, "Boom boom" sounds erupted, and the surrounding peaks seemed to shake and tremble. In the distant sky, large patches of dark clouds pressed down quickly.

Tens of thousands of demon birds and beasts surged from the sky and ground simultaneously, encircling the peak where the villagers from Junior Immortal Village stood, like casting an inescapable net, eyes cold and bloodthirsty fixed on the villagers atop the peak.

These demon birds and beasts, some had transformed into human shapes, some maintained their original forms, each releasing a fearsome aura.

Especially the front-row hundred giant-bodied demon birds and beasts had cultivation comparable to Immortal Emperor Realm experts like Variable Immortal King and White Crane Immortal Emperor.

"This is a disaster..."

Variable Immortal Emperor had now calmed down from his excitement and, seeing the continuously approaching demon birds and beasts from all directions towards the peak, couldn’t help but gasp, regretting his earlier bloodthirstiness that prevented a timely departure from Myriad Demons Mountain.

"Brother, you’re still as impulsive as before, getting hot-headed without considering anything!"

Fang Bai appeared beside Variable Immortal Emperor, saying with a sigh.

Variable Immortal Emperor glanced at him and smiled bitterly: "Actually, over the millennia, my personality has changed a lot. I just couldn’t control myself when I saw Fen Yue injured!"

His gaze fell on his daughter, seeing that after a brief recovery, her complexion had improved significantly, he felt relieved, displaying rare tenderness and affection and said: "Back then, Fen Yue’s mother fell to save me, before she perished, she urged me to take good care of Fen Yue, not let Fen Yue be wronged or harmed... If something happens to Fen Yue, how can I face her mother..."

As he spoke, his expression became dazed, seemingly recalling something, his eyes reddened slightly, his voice also choking.

"Dad..."

A soft voice sounded behind Variable Immortal Emperor.

Upon hearing this, Variable Immortal Emperor turned around to see his daughter Fen Yue, clad in a green dress, standing smartly in front, her large eyes glistening with a layer of mist as she looked at him.

"Did you think about Mom again?"

Fen Yue Fairy stepped forward, wiping away the tears at the corner of Variable Immortal Emperor’s eyes, blinking as she asked.

"Yes, I was thinking of her..."

Variable Immortal Emperor nodded, then looked his daughter up and down, and asked concernedly: "Fen Yue, are you alright now?"

Fen Yue Fairy said: "Yes, my injuries are mostly healed, I can join you in battle!"

Variable Immortal Emperor knew the upcoming battle would be exceptionally fierce, for a first-grade Immortal King Realm expert like his daughter to get involved would be akin to courting death, so he gestured for her to step behind him, saying: "The enemies are strong, this battle is difficult! You stand behind Dad, Dad will protect you!"

He glanced around, seeing more and more demon experts, each towering as a mountain, pressing forward constantly, his expression more solemn, whispering to Fang Bai: "Brother, my daughter is also your niece, if something happens to me, I entrust Fen Yue to you!"

Fang Bai saw a heroic expression on his face, seeming to think this battle was fraught with danger, chuckling and shaking his head: "You should take care of your precious daughter yourself!"

Variable Immortal Emperor sighed: "I’m serious! This battle is too unfavorable for us, villagers from Junior Immortal Village, probably more than half will perish here. Among all the Immortals, your cultivation may not be high, but I know you have the best chance to escape...I will give my all to assist you, my wife and Fen Yue to flee from Myriad Demons Mountain. If so, I’d die without regrets!"

Fen Yue Fairy sensed from Variable Immortal Emperor’s words that he harbored the intent to die, was stunned, tightly grasping his sleeve, anxious: "Dad! What are you saying! How could you die? I won’t escape, I want to be with you..."
