In the sky, the morning light of the rising sun grew larger, and those Three-Eyed Demon Rocs hovered high, backed by the sunrise, resembling graceful mythical birds born with the sun.
They all cried out in unison, as if cheering for the Three-Eyed Demon King.
The flames in the sky grew even stronger, and this long cry made the demon beasts of the entire mountain range even more ferocious, coming from endless mountain ranges.
Like tides within the mountains, they surged with spiritual light, covering layer by layer.
The Taiyi Sect's cultivators of the Purple Mansion were also solemn at this moment, staring intently at these Tier Three Three-Eyed Demon Rocs, as the Three-Eyed Demon Roc race grew too quickly.
Everyone found that, at the combat power level of Tier Three Purple Mansion, the Three-Eyed Demon Roc race had eight roc members, and some mixed-blood Purple Mansion flying birds numbered over ten.
While for the Human Race, there were only a little over twenty Purple Mansion cultivators.
But it must be known, the black flame bloodline of the Three-Eyed Demon Roc was too overbearing, ordinary cultivators of the same rank weren't their match at all.
...
Boom!
In the sky, True Master San Yuan once again slashed out a sword. The unique sword embryo of the Taiyi Sect blossomed with terrifying sword light, with thousands of sword shadows, falling precisely on the neck of the Three-Eyed Demon King.
Especially the most solidified sword embryo spirit shadow inside, cutting out a grim blood mark.
In an instant, countless red feathers scattered.
"Tweet!" The Three-Eyed Demon King cried out in pain, with fire surging up tens of feet high.
As the Three-Eyed Demon King showed a slight decline, those Three-Eyed Demon Rocs in the sky couldn't hold back any longer, gliding down while screaming.
Their calls were extremely urgent, their vertical eyes at their brows tightly closed, appearing solemn and mysterious.
They quickly swooped down from the sky, with terrifying momentum, their speed increasingly fast!
This dive was a favorite tactic of speed-type demon birds, which is why the Taiyi Sect placed their defense in Jade Dragon Valley.
With Jade Dragon Valley surrounded by mountains on three sides, if the peaks could not be defended, then the valley's entrance would be guarded, greatly reducing the speed and space of these demon birds.
However, before that, the cultivators of Taiyi Sect didn't want to give up the three mountain peaks.
They all took out magical treasures, most cultivators of Taiyi Sword Peak brought out their respective magical treasure flying swords, with not many sword embryos among them.
Each sword embryo had to be transparently connected to the sword heart, nurtured with sword intent.
While the cultivators of Taiyi Purple Mansion and Taiyi Illusion Peak each took out their respective lifebound magical treasures, mostly dusters and cyan light swords of the Taiyi Sect.
Neatly arranged in the air, including Ye Haicheng, who also took out a three-story tall treasure tower at this moment.
However, red feathers continuously fell from the wings of those Three-Eyed Demon Rocs, and with increasingly urgent roars from their mouths, more and more demon flames were spewed out.
These demon flames quickly transformed into Fire Sparrows, with the red feathers acting as the skeletons of these Fire Sparrows, vividly alive in the air, carrying terrifying flame spiritual might.
The entire sky seemed invaded by fire, accompanied by huge roc cries.
The magical treasures of Taiyi Sect couldn't even block this strike.
The gap between the Purple Mansion of the sect and the family clans' Purple Mansion was now evident.
After all, the major Purple Mansion clans were mostly at the early stage of Purple Mansion, and their cultivation was not that solid.
Even the light shields were directly broken, and flames burned through the gaps, forcing the ascendants to take out spirit talismans to extinguish the fire.
What's more troubling for these ascendants was that even after breaking through the magical treasure defense, the Three-Eyed Demon Rocs didn't immediately charge in.
Instead, they circled once more, then flew back into the sky, and after reaching a certain height, they started to dive again, repeating this process, causing the ascendants of Taiyi Sect to frown deeply.
They had anticipated their previous flaws.
After all, the valley entrance was a well-designed location.
However, clearly, the Three-Eyed Demon Rocs' spiritual wisdom was not low, making their strategy ineffective.
...
Beyond the Purple Mansion cultivators, Foundation Establishment cultivators and Qi Cultivation cultivators were also facing the beast tide head-on.
Jade Dragon Valley faced west and opened to the east, gathering Jade Dragon Lake within the valley and splitting into two tributaries, flowing eastward.
Each great family, along with the sect, guarded the peaks at the three entrances to the valley and the eastern valley entrance.
Of course, since the beast tide came from the western mountains, demon beasts were scarce at the eastern valley entrance.
Those Tier One and Tier Two demon beasts wouldn't bother circumventing to the east for an ambush.
Only a few low-tier demon snakes and some water demons came up against the flow of the Jade Dragon River, but were easily held off by sect cultivators.
So more were still on the mountain peaks, with cultivators attacking from above, killing those demon beasts using various magical artifacts and magic.
The only somewhat tricky ones were the constant arrival of Tier Two Red Rocs and Tier Two Fire-Devouring Sparrows in the sky.
Their strategy was identical to the Purple Mansion great demons in the sky: continuously diving while releasing a large amount of fire.
"Boom boom boom!" Accompanied by the massive flames, all the flowers, grass, and trees in Jade Dragon Valley were engulfed in fire.
The flames soared into the sky, with temperatures skyrocketing.
"First use needle-type magical artifacts and freezing-type spirit talismans to prevent the Red Roc from approaching!"
"Wood cultivation vines, deploy first to entangle the quicker Fire-Devouring Sparrows!"
"Also, use various water ball talismans to extinguish the fire!"
...
The angry shouts of the family clan cultivators echoed throughout the peaks.
The Ye Family guarded the peak at the south, avoiding the worst of the west.
Yet at this moment, the demon beasts they faced were still not easy.
The Fire-Devouring Sparrows and Red Rocs in the sky kept approaching, while at the mountain's foot, there were large numbers of Long-tailed Flame Wolves and Cyan Fire Pythons, and other fire attribute demon beasts.
The surrounding peaks of Jade Dragon Valley were all scorched into charred land by the continuous flames.
However, these demon beasts ran even faster.
Aside from the secret techniques and magic of the fire attribute cultivators, it was somewhat affected by the situation.
"Golden Scales, keep releasing Earth Spike Skill, Third Uncle, I'll use Cyan Wood Spirit Seed next to trap a few Fire-Devouring Sparrows, there's a Blazing Lion in the distance, perhaps Lion King Ridge has acted too!" Ye Jingcheng transmitted.
Water attribute demon beasts weren't exerting much power at the moment, but the Golden Scale Beast could show its might.
It executed Earth Spike Skill and Earth Spike Array one after another, becoming a nightmare for those Flame Wolves and Fire Pythons.
With its strong forepaws, it constantly struck, more dominant than Ye Family's Lizard Lord.
Although Ye Jingcheng occasionally found fault with the Golden Scale Beast, in truth, the Golden Scale Beast wasn't bad. Its spiritual might now was no less than a Tier Two mid-stage demon beast.
Moreover, the Golden Scale Beast could now release Cloud Fall Star Rock, surprising Ye Jingcheng significantly.
Although the manifested Star Rock seemed like a variant of the Earth Spike Skill, losing some solidity, it gained sharpness; once struck, it could penetrate and break through bones.
As another wave of Fire-Devouring Sparrows swooped down, Ye Jingcheng started forming finger formulas, throwing out Vajra Vine Seeds swiftly with his hands.
Throwing them towards the ground below.
Lion King Ridge had made its move, so he couldn't pause. He glanced around, and most family clans were holding back, seemingly cautious for the Secret Realm.
Fearing their methods would be known to others, causing them to lag in the Secret Realm.
But he realized a major issue; in such an expansion, apart from choosing a defensive strategy, Taiyi Sect had no other plans.
Taiyi Sect seemed to aim for more than just revenge or the Secret Realm.
They also seemed to want to weaken the family clans.
The most direct observation was that the Taiyi Sect's Purple Mansion members, like ordinary Purple Mansion cultivators, hadn't used their trump cards.
Meanwhile, those family clan cultivators were also holding back their methods.
But holding back methods, they were facing a beast tide launched by several Demon Kings!
Therefore, Ye Jingcheng was genuinely worried at this moment, feeling that Taiyi Sect seemed to be observing which family clans could erupt at critical moments!
