Chapter 288 - 263: You Think I Don’t Know the Little Schemes of the Human and Dragon Clans?
[As soon as this was said, the Celestial Court’s immortals all echoed in agreement, their gazes fervent.]
[They were convinced that the Black Emperor Great Demon, this wild "Great Saint Realm Martial Artist," was definitely not on the side of the Divine Man. If they could recruit him, he would be a great asset in conquering the Divine Man.]
[On the side, the Second Generation Disciples of the Divine Land Orthodox Sect and the aquatic Great Demons realized this and hurried to extend olive branches.]
[An aquatic Great Demon squeezed forward, full of enthusiasm: "Brother, the Celestial Court people won’t do, their leader has disbanded! I see you have horns on your head and black scales all over your body, you must have the bloodline of a water buffalo, why not join our great Dragon Race and fight across the heavens together, wouldn’t that be exhilarating!"]
["I came first!" The Earth Virtue Star Monarch glared at the aquatic Great Demon, his tone somewhat displeased, evidently quite annoyed by this act of poaching.]
["We, the Divine Land Orthodox Sect..."]
[The scene was bustling for a moment, everyone speaking in turn, competing to recruit, with the Black Emperor Great Demon becoming the coveted one in everyone’s eyes.]
[But the Black Emperor Great Demon, who was being adored by such a gathering, stood among the crowd expressionless, yet the corner of her mouth couldn’t help but twitch slightly.]
[Boom!]
["Second Brother! I’m here to help you!" At that moment, a loud shout broke the clamor, and a black python charged into the Eight Array Map fiercely.]
[The black python’s body flickered and instantly transformed into a burly man in black armor, holding an eight-footed snake spear, exuding a fierce and savage aura, it was Zhang Fei!]
["Divine Man Great Saint?!" The Earth Virtue Star Monarch suddenly returned to his senses, his face changing drastically, and urgently shouted to the Golden Immortals present: "First break the Eight Array Map! Don’t delay!"]
[The Earth Virtue Star Monarch looked solemn, and said in a deep voice to the Black Emperor Great Demon: "Warrior, we will collectively stabilize the eight gates within the map to stop its functioning and transformation. When the Yellow Heaven Great Sun shakes, you take action at the eye of the formation. Working together, we will surely break this formation!"]
[After he finished speaking, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, he whispered: "Without the Eight Array Map, they are bound to lose!"]
[On the other side, Guan Yu looked indifferent and coldly ordered: "Third Brother, I will guard this place, you go to block this demon, prevent it from slaughtering the army, and don’t let it get near the eye of the formation."]
[The two sides had fought for many years, already understanding each other’s details clearly, it was almost an open game.]
[The army of a million in Bing Province was the complement of "Yellow Heaven Great Sun" and "Eight Array Map Suppression Eye", along with the guarding Divine Being, none could be missing.]
[Zhang Fei bowed in reply, his voice like a bell: "Aye!"]
["Wait a minute." The Black Emperor Great Demon widened her eyes and with a wave of both hands, knocked the immortals of the Celestial Court away. She squeezed out from the circle of the Celestial Court immortals, hurriedly explaining: "Hey, old general, it’s a misunderstanding, misunderstanding, listen to me explain to you..."]
[Before the Black Emperor Great Demon’s words were finished, Zhang Fei already had his eyes wide open in anger, the eight-footed snake spear in his hand like a giant python emerging from its hole, sweeping out with might like thunderous force! Before the spear point arrived, the fierce killing intent already swept over like a gale, forcing the surrounding air to seemingly freeze for a moment.]
[The Black Emperor Great Demon crossed his arms in front of his chest, the black qi surging around him, forcibly blocking the eight-footed snake spear.]
[However, Zhang Fei’s power far exceeded his expectations! The eight-footed snake spear heavily smashed onto the Black Emperor Great Demon’s arms.]
["Boom!" With a loud noise, the Black Emperor Great Demon crashed heavily onto the ground, the surface instantly cracking, dust flying, and rubble splattered everywhere. His body was deeply embedded into the ground, and cracks spread like a spider web from it, causing the area within hundreds of feet to collapse from this blow.]
[The Black Emperor Great Demon slowly stood up from the ground, the black qi surging around him.]
[The heaven and earth suddenly transformed!]
[The originally clear sky was instantly engulfed by raging flames, and high above, a gigantic yellow sun hung, its scorching rays cast down, seemingly wanting to incinerate the entire world to ashes.]
[The ground cracked and vaporized under the intense heat, the air filled with a scorching smell, even breathing became difficult.]
[Zhang Wei, Fang Yuechan, and Ning Yu were also swept into this flaming world, with magical power and spiritual light flickering around them, forming a thin shield that barely resisted the surrounding intense flames, yet the flame, without a gap, continually eroded their protective spiritual light, emitting a "sizzling" burning sound.]
[Ning Yu, the weakest in strength, had her magical power devoured by the flames at a speed visible to the naked eye. In moments, her protective spiritual light was already shattered, forcing her to withstand the burning heat with her flesh body.]
[Her face was pale as paper, fine beads of sweat exuded from her forehead, sliding down her cheeks, evaporated into wisps of white vapor by the high temperature before they even fell.]
[Zhang Wei looked up at the yellow sun, his brows tightly knit, and said in a low voice: "This great sun contains a million wills, wearing down our magical power and primordial spirit...if we can’t break the formation quickly, we might truly fall here."]
[The three of them were not like Second Senior Sister Ji Jun, who could withstand the burning of this sun’s will with their flesh body.]
[At the same time, the Yellow Heaven Great Sun hanging above the Eight Array Map suddenly shook violently, its light flickering, as if impacted by some force. The entire flaming world began to tremble, the flames surging like waves, but no longer as violent as before.]
[The eight immortal Golden Immortals of the Celestial Court began to exert their power.]
[Zhang Wei and the others let out a long breath, the pressure around them suddenly reducing. Zhang Wei quickly adjusted his breath and said in a deep voice: "With things as they are, we can only break the formation first!"]
[Zhang Wei, Fang Yuechan, and the Black Emperor Great Demon restrained Zhang Fei!]
[Ning Yu saw this, aimed at the back of Zhang Fei’s head, and swung out her Lifebound Magical Treasure, the Qiankun Circle. Although Zhang Fei was aware of it, he was constrained by the threefold suppression and did not have time to dodge.]
[Only to hear a muffled "bang," the Qiankun Circle struck heavily on the back of Zhang Fei’s head, making his figure sway, his eyes instantly losing their luster, and then he fell to the ground with a rumble, unconscious.]
