How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 436 - 0431: One Two-Hour Period
Boom boom boom!
Dark clouds drifted across the sky, dust roiled on the ground, continuously rolling forward.
"Is that the Landing Tribe?"
Chen Yu, floating in the air, saw a vast range of mountains in the distance.
The Landing Tribe lay enclosed within those mountains, with only one route leading inside through a gap that spanned about ten meters at the front.
"Charge!"
Chen Yu waved his hand, and his army advanced at full speed, soon arriving outside the valley.
At this moment, the entire Landing Tribe had activated its Clan Protection Array. The tribe members were neatly lined up in formation, ready to confront Chen Yu’s arrival.
"Is that Chen Yu?"
The higher echelons of the Landing Tribe all watched the young man in black who floated in the sky.
He was someone who could be mentioned in the same breath as Meng Chixiong, a formidable figure.
"Is it this very youth who defeated Meng Chixiong?"
An old crone stared at Chen Yu with a cold expression.
"He’s too young. I now believe what you said; the rumors from the outside world must be Chu Country exaggerating their words. They just want to prop up someone as a hero akin to Meng Chixiong."
The man with the dark face chuckled.
"We must not be careless."
The eyes of the Landing Clan Leader, blurry with age, were fixed on Chen Yu, underpinned by a feeling of unease.
His instincts in the Guiyuan Realm told him that the youth before him was anything but simple.
At that moment, Chen Yu, from the outside, spoke up, "Landing Tribe, I am giving you a chance to surrender to me; otherwise, there is no need for the Landing Tribe to exist."
"A joke. How could you few defeat the Landing Tribe with just that handful of people?"
The old crone scoffed.
However, if Chen Yu truly possessed combat strength on the level of Meng Chixiong, then it might be possible.
But if the Landing Tribe could utilize its geographical advantage and fully defend with its barrier formation, even someone like Meng Chixiong would be helpless against them in a short duration.
"Heh, as soon as you step onto the territory of the Landing Tribe, your death is certain. Whether it’s reinforcements from the other tribes arriving or the experts from the Guiyuan Realm rushing back from the front lines, your entire army will be wiped out!"
The man with the dark face laughed heartily, thinking the youth before him terribly naïve to have run straight to the Landing Tribe.
In the sky, Chen Yu heard these words, his expression still relaxed.
But the other high-ranking officers were having trouble maintaining their composure.
"Commander Chen, having pushed our attack here, the Guiyuan Realm warriors at the front lines must have received the message and are en route back. When they arrive, we will be facing an attack from both fronts and meet certain death."
Deputy Commander Wei was tense.
"The Landing Tribe and the Mantu Tribe are so close, they must have already called for help. We should retreat quickly."
Another high-ranking officer was already thinking of pulling back.
Now, more than seventy percent of the people were regretting their decision.
"Ha-ha-ha, don’t worry. Within one hour, we will breach the Landing Tribe. If not, we will retreat."
Chen Yu laughed heartily.
"One hour?"
Deputy Commander Wei was doubtful, thinking it would be difficult to achieve.
But if it could be done, support from the Mantu Tribe could not possibly arrive within an hour, and there would be no danger.
Chen Yu’s words acted as a Calming Pill, temporarily putting most at ease.
"Attack!"
At Chen Yu’s command, everyone charged.
Boom boom boom!
Immediately, a myriad of attacks descended upon the Clan Protection Array of the Landing Tribe, forming a vast cloud of dark smoke.
Within the array, the people of the Landing Tribe only heard the thunderous roars, unaffected by the assault.
"These fools, with just that handful of people, how can they possibly break through the Clan Protection Array?"
The man with the dark face mocked.
Every mighty power has a potent Guardian Formation to protect its foundation, perfected over countless years and of extraordinary strength.
Someone in the Mid Guiyuan once emerged from the Landing Tribe during its most prosperous era. It was at that time that the Clan Protection Array of the Landing Tribe was strengthened to withstand the attacks of a Mid Guiyuan expert.
However, such an array requires massive consumption of Primordial Stones and personnel to manipulate and operate it.
The enemy could deplete it until the array would be difficult to sustain.
But did Chen Yu and the others have the time to do so?
Just then, everyone saw a figure appear outside the barrier at the valley’s entrance—Chen Yu.
"That boy is preparing to break the formation himself?"
The dark-faced man laughed, unconcerned, for unless Chen Yu possessed the strength of the Mid Guiyuan, it would be of no use.
However, what happened next left all onlookers agape, their jaws nearly dropping to the floor.
Chen Yu held something in his hand, and with one fierce slash on the barrier,
Whoosh!
Instantly, a large rent appeared in what was once a solid, flawless barrier.
Chen Yu leapt in through it, and the gap closed immediately behind him.
Although he was the only person to enter, the sight had unquestionably shaken the many people of the Landing Tribe.
"That is an extraordinary treasure capable of breaking array restrictions."
The Landing Clan Leader stared intently at the Token in Chen Yu’s hand.
"This child seems to be brewing something,"
The old crone’s gaze grew somber.
They saw, upon entering, Chen Yu immediately activated his Secret Pattern Demon Body, his body gleaming with black light and engulfed by swirling Demonic Qi. He took deep breaths, his belly expanding continuously.
"Attack, kill this man!"
The Clan Leader immediately issued the order.
Suddenly, everyone surged forward.
"Scram!"
Chen Yu roared, and a dull and distorted sonic wave emanated from his fist, spreading in all directions.
The Copper Lion Roar, though somewhat outdated for Chen Yu’s current level, was still his widest-reaching attack.
"Aaah..."
Tribe members at the forefront fell backward, their bodies curled up in agony, screaming as blood seeped from their ears, nose, and throat.
Some had such low cultivation levels that, rushing too far forward, were killed outright by Chen Yu’s sonic attack.
After a single sonic attack, the scene descended into chaos.
But the high-ranking members of the Landing Tribe rearguard were less affected by the sonic waves and had already charged in.
"You think you can take on the entire Landing Tribe by yourself with just that kind of attack?"
One of the Qi Transformation Realm high-ranking members couldn’t help but laugh.
At that moment, Chen Yu’s eyes flickered with a bright light, "Found it!"
As it turned out, upon entering the place, Chen Yu had released the Iron Moon Strange Insect, which burrowed into the underground of the Landing Tribe’s interior.
After some time spent searching, it finally located the person controlling the Clan Protection Array.
Without delay, the Iron Moon Strange Insect launched a sneak attack, killing one of them.
With its venom, even a common individual at the Innate Peak would undoubtedly die from a single bite.
Seizing the opportunity, Chen Yu used the token in his hand to slash again, tearing an even larger gap.
Simultaneously, he clenched his fist, channeling True Yuan, and threw a fierce punch.
Boom!
Dark light swirled with Demonic Qi, blowing a large hole in the Clan Protection Array, causing the entire formation to ripple and distort, becoming even more chaotic.
Immediately after, Chen Yu controlled the Iron Moon Strange Insect to assassinate a second person in charge of the array.
Coupled with the relentless bombardment from the external forces, the entire Clan Protection Array shattered at a certain moment.
Suddenly, the army charged straight in.
This process was actually very quick, leaving the high-ranking members of the Landing Tribe stunned and confused.
The so-called Guardian Formation was impervious from the outside but quite easy to break from within.
"One hour."
Chen Yu let out a faint smile and released the Red Flame King to join the fight.
"Kill!"
Deputy Commander Wei and the other high-ranking members were incomparably excited.
If they were victorious, this would be an unprecedented great victory, and their deeds and names would be sung throughout the Three Kingdoms to the south.
"Fight!"
The Landing Clan Leader roared, and all the people of the tribe charged out.
Forced to abandon the Clan Protection Array, they now had no choice but to face the battle head-on.
"Follow me, and annihilate this man!"
The Landing Clan Leader’s gaze swept across, picking four individuals, among which were the old crone and the black-faced elder.
Gurgle!
Before the battle, nearly all of these individuals took out one or several elixirs and swallowed them down.
They were not skilled in combat and their combat power was not strong, but they could temporarily enhance their strength with elixirs.
Whoosh! freewёbnoνel.com
The Landing Clan Leader stretched out his hand, and immediately a blue flame ignited on his palm.
This was the "Blue Scale True Fire," a special Secret Technique capable of being refined only by the Landing Tribe, and belonged to the category of True Fire Spirit Flame.
Having ingested the elixirs, the Landing Clan Leader’s momentum surged, and he swung out a palm of blue-scale flame.
Among the other four, the black-faced elder also possessed "Blue Scale True Fire," while the old crone took out a golden hairpin and stabbed forward, creating a golden flame light.
Bang, boom, crash!
The attacks of the five individuals all hit Chen Yu, one after another, igniting a flurry of flame explosions.
"Hmph, the boy has underestimated our Landing Tribe too much."
The black-faced elder snorted coldly.
Although they were not good at fighting, they were adept at using elixirs and poisons, able to enhance themselves and poison their enemies.
"Is this all you’ve got?"
Suddenly, a scoffing voice rang out, and then Chen Yu slowly emerged.
At this moment, his body, dark and sinister, was cloaked in a tyrannical and chilling Demon Armor, his presence staggering, instilling a sense of dread.
"Not a scratch?"
The old crone’s body instantly trembled.
She and the black-faced elder were at the Innate Peak. After consuming the elixirs, they could unleash combat power close to the Guiyuan Realm.
The other two could also demonstrate combat power at the Innate Peak.
And their Clan Leader was a genuine Guiyuan Realm master, who also possessed True Fire Spirit Flame.
Joined together, the five had not inflicted a single injury on Chen Yu!
In fact, with Chen Yu’s fourth layer of the Secret Pattern Demon Body defense, ordinary attacks at the Guiyuan Realm couldn’t harm him in the least.
Had it not been for their combined effort and the Clan Leader having True Fire Spirit Flame, Chen Yu wouldn’t even need to invoke the "Demon Scale Armor."
Swoosh!
Just as Chen Yu was stepping slowly, his speed suddenly exploded, like a streak of black lightning, closing in on a Late Innate practitioner.
Of course, that person had just swallowed a few elixirs and reached the Innate Peak in strength.
But to Chen Yu, it made no difference whether he took the elixirs or not.
Thud!
The man didn’t even see Chen Yu’s punch coming before a shadow of a Demon Light Fist landed on his chest.
He was sent flying backward, spewing several mouthfuls of blood, crashing to the ground with blood surging out, dead beyond doubt.
"Dammit."
The Landing Clan Leader cursed through gritted teeth, "Use the Spirit Refining Fire Formation!"
At once, the remaining three swiftly moved into action, standing in strange postures, releasing three colors of flames intertwining together.
Originally a method for alchemy, this Spirit Refining Fire Formation had been modified into a Combined Attack Formation capable of targeting enemies.
"Somewhat interesting?"
Chen Yu looked toward the three led by the black-faced elder.
A Combined Attack Formation was derived from an array, and because arrays were complex, they tended to be fixed or monotonous.
A Combined Attack Formation involved several practitioners jointly practicing a combat skill or Secret Technique, deploying it together, and unleashing powerful combined forces.
Compared to arrays, Combined Attack Formations were simpler, more flexible, and versatile.
Meanwhile, the Landing Clan Leader threw out a bag of powder that instantly ignited under his True Yuan, transforming into a dark blue ocean of smoky fire.
"Young man, underestimating the foundation of a tribe will cost you dearly."
The Landing Clan Leader’s voice spread coldly and heavily.
"Underestimating me will also come at a heavy price," Chen Yu said nonchalantly, watching as the dark blue fire mist enveloped him.
