Chapter 3172: On the Defensive?



Lin Chen possessed a small tower-shaped magical treasure, within which resided a female Quasi-Saint, a fact that Bai Manmei was aware of. Yet, suddenly now two appeared, leaving her once again feeling shocked.

Could it be that the one fighting side by side with that Quasi-Saint, was also a Quasi-Saint?

Dawn Camp had Chu Jiaxue and Master Floating Cloud, the two Quasi-Saints, which Bai Manmei had already heard about. Now, counting these two, wouldn't that make four Quasi-Saints?

The strength of four Quasi-Saints was already terrifying, but even more fearsome was that all four Quasi-Saints were willing to obey Lin Chen's commands, and they even stayed close to protect him!

How on earth did Lin Chen accomplish this?

If it was said that Lin Chen was the son of an Immortal Emperor, or a disciple of a renowned Saint, that would have been conceivable, but according to the information available, Lin Chen started from nothing, without any background!

For someone without any background to be able to command the actions of four Quasi-Saints was truly astonishing!

Those were Quasi-Saints, after all!

Although the Quasi-Saints were only a step away from the peak of Da Luo, that step was like a chasm!

A single Quasi-Saint held the supreme and noble position of dominating an area, far more majestic than the Emperor of the Human World by an unknown number of times. There have always been only those who command others, so who has ever seen several Quasi-Saints taking orders from an unknown young lad?

A deep reverence swelled in Bai Manmei's heart, setting aside Lin Chen's abilities. The fact that he could accomplish this was something she believed she could never achieve.

"Just wait here. There is a Barrier protecting the giant ship. When the time comes, the two of you strike together, break the Barrier directly, then Senior Duan Tian will hold off the Deacon, and Senior Zhen will seize the Soul Nourishing Vessel. We will attack the accompanying Demon God Army and the Soul Splitting Sect Disciples along with the Group of Demons."

"Our actions must be swift, and at the same time, we must be prepared for the enemy to use various distress signals. If they summon one or two Quasi-Saints, we might still escape, but if the Little Demon Emperor, or even the Demon Emperor is called, then we are truly dead."

"If the other side has any means of calling for help, it must be with that Deacon. So, Senior Duan Tian, watch him and don't let him have the chance to call for help."

Duan Tian grunted an acknowledgement, "Understood."

Zhen Liuxue spoke up, "How about we switch? I'll take on the Deacon, and you go for the Soul Nourishing Vessel, Duan Tian. Move quickly, don't give the other side time to react."

Duan Tian looked at Lin Chen, who nodded in agreement, "That works too, let's do it as Senior Zhen suggests."

Between the two, Lin Chen naturally trusted Zhen Liuxue more; hence, in the arrangement of actions, he subconsciously assigned Duan Tian to face the Quasi-Saint and gave Zhen Liuxue the ostensibly easier task.

But since Zhen Liuxue had volunteered, they would proceed with that proposal. Her Time Divine Ability was naturally more mysterious compared to Duan Tian's Fire Divine Power and would provide a better advantage in guarding against the enemy's tactics.

Bai Manmei listened to the trio's conversation from the side, especially the two words "Understood" from Duan Tian prompting an even greater shock within her.

Lin Chen called him Senior, but this was clearly a relationship of issuing orders between ranks!

Didn't you see that after the proposal from Senior Zhen, the Quasi-Saint named Duan Tian did not immediately agree, but instead looked to Lin Chen?

Clearly, he was waiting for Lin Chen's order!

Lin Chen was fearsome indeed.

Filled with shock, Bai Manmei dutifully began to hide.

After a short wait, the giant ship emerged from afar, its Demon God Temple's massive flag displaying its identity, proclaiming to passersby who they were.

When the Demon God Temple traveled, commoners cleared the way!

Just as the giant ship passed over the Cluster Peak, Zhen Liuxue and Duan Tian simultaneously leaped out, instantly reaching underneath the vessel. With two magical treasures exuding extreme horrifying power, they smashed fiercely into the bottom of the giant ship.

Although the ship was protected by a Barrier, it was mostly to fend off wind pressure and to prevent special circumstances. How could it withstand the joint strike of two Quasi-Saints?

Without any surprises, the Barrier shattered with a bang.

The Magical Treasures of Zhen Liuxue and her companion continued their momentum and smashed directly into the giant ship.

The ship, large as a small hill, instantaneously split in the middle, exploding into two pieces with a loud boom.

At the same time, over a hundred figures, having been ambushed, subconsciously leapt into the air, their spent Magical Treasures discarded, their Protective Shields activated to guard themselves as they panickedly searched for their attackers.

Everyone aboard the flying boat had not anticipated that even with the flag of the Demon God Temple planted on it in the territory of the Blood Wind Demon Domain, the ship would still fall victim to an attack!

Who dared to be so bold?

Didn't they know who was aboard this ship?

The middle-aged Deacon responded immediately, opening his Domain in an instant to block the overwhelming force coming from ahead, protecting everyone behind him.

"Who goes there, daring to offend my Demon God Temple!"

Zhen Liuxue, shadow-like, appeared instantaneously in front of the middle-aged Deacon, her Domain erupted, and her shining Moon Wheel Blade, trailing streams of light, slashed at him.

At the same time, Duan Tian had already charged toward the group dressed in robes, markedly different from the Demon God Army, the disciples of the Soul Splitting Sect.

Deep in the valley forest below, dozens of terrifying breaths suddenly rose to the sky, a horde of Great Demons soaring upward, completely encircling the area.

This was Lin Chen's prior arrangement. He had been concerned the other party might use some special method to escape with the Soul Nourishing Vessel.

This scene caused the complexions of both the Demon God Army squad members and the Soul Splitting Sect disciples to change drastically.

They now understood that this was no chance mugging on the road; it was a deliberately planned assault targeting them!

Needless to say, the goal was naturally the Soul Nourishing Vessel held by the Soul Splitting Sect!

The middle-aged Deacon, feeling the terrifying force of the attack, was shocked beyond measure. No one had come through the Domain Gate, so how had the information about the Soul Nourishing Vessel been leaked?

Wait, someone has come!

A flash of inspiration struck the middle-aged Deacon's mind as he thought of the large group of people who had been restrained in the square, those who had come from the Black Sky Demon Domain.

A chill ran through the middle-aged Deacon's heart. The Great Wilderness Palace had anticipated this, hence while they pressed the Demon God Army, they had also arranged for a Quasi-Saint to slip into the Domain Gate ahead of time and arrive in the Blood Wind Demon Domain.

This was the backup of the Great Wilderness Palace, and now this backup had been deployed!

He had been outmaneuvered!

Feeling an oppressive force as heavy as a mountain, fear surged in the middle-aged Deacon's heart. He was no match for his opponent!

He might still be able to hold on for a moment, but what about the disciples of the Soul Splitting Sect?

In his haste, he took a quick glance, and his heart turned cold.

A member of the Demon God Army, confronting another figure, was engulfed in firelight as a Fire Dragon soared up, instantly swallowing the Demon God Army member, burning him to Flying Ashes in the blink of an eye. Even the Demon Armor—forged from Special Metal and strengthened with a powerful Defense Array—melted instantly into liquid and sprinkled through the air.

Quasi-Saint!

Two Quasi-Saints!

The middle-aged Deacon's heart skipped a beat, realizing that his group was no match for the attackers. If they did not call for reinforcements, it was very likely that they would meet their doom, and the Soul Nourishing Vessel would be stolen.

The spiritual power surged within the middle-aged Deacon as he manipulated his Magical Treasure, blocking a ferocious slash from the Moon Wheel Blade. Ignoring his suddenly pallid complexion, he pulled a Token from his Spatial Ring and pressed a finger onto it.
