As soon as Ye Yunfei finished speaking, he stomped his foot, immediately activating all the Earth Formations surrounding the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds. Danger zones and death traps emerged one after another in a steady stream, each one supported by a piece of land at its base. From a distance, countless densely packed pieces of land appeared to be floating and sinking within this expanse of chaotic void, emanating an eerie energy aura.
Then Ye Yunfei flung out another batch of formation flags, activating all the formations in the surrounding area. One formation after another erupted with torrents of formation energy.
The Demon Race Demigods who had been rushing towards Ye Yunfei at high speed suddenly found their path blocked.
The Earth Formations and Formations personally laid by Ye Yunfei were quite powerful, and coupled with their sheer numbers, they secretly astonished those Demon Race Demigods.
"Puny Earth Formations and Formations want to block us? Not a chance!" a Demon Race Advanced Demigod said coldly, throwing a punch forward.
*Bang bang bang…*
One formation after another was blasted apart by him. He actually managed to break through four or five Formations in one go.
"This guy's combat power is a bit terrifying," Ye Yunfei thought, frowning slightly. He then pointed with his hand, and large numbers of yellow earthen walls materialized before this Demon Race Advanced Demigod, rumbling forward to collide with him.
At the same time, one Danger Zone and Death Trap after another, transformed from Earth Formations, also began to move, converging to surround this Demon Race Advanced Demigod.
The Demon Race Advanced Demigod erupted with astonishing devilish energy, which transformed into seven devil dragons that coiled around him. The yellow earthen walls were successively smashed to pieces, and the Danger Zones and Death Traps also shook violently under the assault from the demon and his dragons. They simply couldn't trap this Demon Race Advanced Demigod.
However, they ultimately managed to restrain him, preventing him from getting close to Ye Yunfei in a short period of time.
"It seems the Earth Formations and Formations I've laid now can deal with Primary and Intermediate Demigods, but when used against Advanced Demigods, they can only serve as a restraint," Ye Yunfei mused as he watched the Demon Race Demigod continuously destroy the yellow earthen walls, Danger Zones, and Death Traps. He was secretly shocked.
Though only one minor realm higher than an Intermediate Demigod, an Advanced Demigod was much more powerful in combat.
At this moment, three Demon Race Advanced Demigods were already charging towards Ye Yunfei, constantly breaking through the Earth Formations and Formations blocking their path.
"Young Master Ye, the power of these Earth Formations and Formations you've laid is truly remarkable," Elder Two said, slightly surprised at the sight.
Earth Formations and Formations laid by a Heavenly Immortal could actually restrain an Advanced Demigod!
"However, these Earth Formations and Formations still cannot ultimately stop them. Let us make a move," Elder Two added.
"Everyone, let us also prepare to attack and slay the demons!" Gan Changfeng declared in a loud, clear voice.
The five Demigods under Ye Yunfei's command had all made preparations.
A total of eleven Demigods on Ye Yunfei's side stood side by side beside him.
"Seniors, during the battle, I will use the Earth Formations and Formations to assist your combat. Also, I will now open the Earth Formations and Formations, letting the Demon Race forces enter the encirclement. Then I'll use them to trap the demons before we engage in combat. This way, this battlefield effectively becomes our home ground, which benefits us," Ye Yunfei said to the eleven Demigods.
"Good, since we have so many Earth Formations and Formations, we must naturally make good use of them," Elder Two replied.
At this moment, the eleven Demigods were hidden within the layered Earth Formations and Formations. The Demon Race Demigods only saw Ye Yunfei and hadn't yet discovered the presence of eleven Demigod experts behind him.
Ye Yunfei had deliberately concealed the aura of these Demigods, and Elder Two and the others had also suppressed their own auras. This would allow them to catch the Demon Race off guard later.
"Senior, it seems a Demon Race expert with Perfected Demigod strength is hiding in the shadows. Only you can handle him. So I must trouble you to keep an eye on him. I am worried he might suddenly charge out and launch a surprise attack. A sneak attack from a Perfected Demigod could very likely instantly kill quite a few experts on our side, causing significant losses," Ye Yunfei then said to the Fire Clan's Elder Two.
"Alright then. I will keep an eye on that fellow," Elder Two replied. He had initially wanted to attack now and wreak havoc, but he knew Ye Yunfei's point was valid. A Perfected Demigod of the Demon Race hiding in the shadows was extremely dangerous. If that Perfected Demigod suddenly charged out for a sneak attack, he might instantly kill several Demigods on their side.
"Ye Yunfei, come here and die!" At this moment, a Demon Race Advanced Demigod had already charged close to Ye Yunfei, murderous aura roiling around him. His tall demonic physique exuded an intensely cold aura, with rolling demonic radiance shooting straight into the heavens.
This Demon Race Advanced Demigod held a demonic blade in his hand and slashed horizontally through the void. Wherever the blade's edge passed, space was cleaved as if it were tofu, leaving behind a deep black spatial rift. Daos of devilish principles erupted from the demonic blade, intertwining like black thunderbolts rumbling and roaring.
It must be said, this Demon Race Advanced Demigod's combat power was formidable. Facing him, Ye Yunfei felt immense pressure.
*Boom…*
Suddenly, a tall figure wreathed in blazing flames appeared, blocking the path before Ye Yunfei. It looked like a gigantic fireball, radiating astounding fiery energy.
"Let me see what you demon whelps can do!" the tall figure roared, charging forward to clash with the Demon Race Advanced Demigod.
This was a Fire Clan Advanced Demigod expert!
Elder Two of the Fire Clan was a Perfected Demigod. Of the five Fire Clan Demigods he brought, one was an Advanced Demigod, one was an Intermediate Demigod, and three were Initial Demigods.
"You… you're from the Fire Clan?" The originally murderous Demon Race Advanced Demigod was startled when a Fire Clan Advanced Demigod suddenly blocked his path. He hadn't expected Ye Yunfei's side to suddenly produce an Advanced Demigod.
"Enough talk, die!" The Fire Clan Advanced Demigod roared loudly, raising a great axe wreathed in raging flames and hacking fiercely at his opponent.
"How dare you! You, Fire Clan, dare to interfere in the affairs of our Demon Race!" the Demon Race Advanced Demigod raged.
The news of the Fire Clan's re-emergence some time ago had long spread throughout the Chaotic Void Sea, and everyone was aware of their return.
"What's going on? There's actually a Fire Clan expert here!" The other Demon Race Demigods were also very surprised.
*Boom boom…*
The Fire Clan Advanced Demigod charged forward to attack, while the Demon Race Advanced Demigod struck out angrily. Both sides clashed together.
One figure was wreathed in soaring flames, the other ablaze with demonic radiance. Both attacked swiftly, and every move was imbued with powerful energy. In moments, the fight escalated to a fever pitch.
*Boom boom…*
As the two Advanced Demigods fought, some of the surrounding Formations and Earth Formations were continuously destroyed and exploded.
Ye Yunfei pointed his hand, connecting with the earth energy.
*Rumble…*
Danger Zones and Death Traps rushed over from all directions in an endless stream, crashing towards the Demon Race Advanced Demigod.
Beneath each Danger Zone and Death Trap was a piece of supporting land. Moving at high speed, their impact force was staggering.
Moreover, within these Danger Zones and Death Traps were all sorts of strange and sinister phenomena. One blurry silhouette after another rushed out from them, pouncing towards the Demon Race Advanced Demigod to attack.
At the same time, large numbers of Formations erupted with beams of formation light energy, like thick shafts of light arrows, aimed and spraying towards the Demon Race Advanced Demigod.
Though these attacks couldn't inflict major harm to this Demon Race Advanced Demigod, they forced him to divert part of his attention to deal with them.
"Let's test my current Mental Force power," Ye Yunfei thought, watching the battle between the two Advanced Demigods. He then unleashed the Formless Heart Sword and Heart Force Lock, attacking the Demon Race Advanced Demigod.
"Ye Yunfei, you are indeed proficient in Mental Force energy! Our demon brethren earlier were indeed killed by you!" The Demon Race Advanced Demigod, subjected to attacks from the Formless Heart Sword and Heart Force Lock, exclaimed with a mixture of shock and fury.
"Stop spouting nonsense!" the Fire Clan Advanced Demigod roared, brandishing his giant axe and slashing it forcefully onto the Demon Race Advanced Demigod's left arm. The blow instantly shattered the left half of the demon's body.
Distracted by the interference from the Earth Formations, Formations, and Ye Yunfei's Mental Force attacks, this Demon Race Advanced Demigod had his mind divided, allowing the Fire Clan Advanced Demigod to seize the opportunity and wound him.
Seeing this, the other Demon Race Demigods were both shocked and enraged.
In reality, the two great experts—the Fire Clan Advanced Demigod and the Demon Race Advanced Demigod—had fought at an incredibly fast pace. Although both sides had traded many blows, it had all happened in an instant. It was only now that the other Demon Race Demigod experts managed to rush to the scene.
"I'll help you!" another Demon Race Advanced Demigod made his move, attacking the Fire Clan Advanced Demigod.
The injured Demon Race Advanced Demigod immediately found the pressure eased considerably.
"Ye Yunfei, you punk, die!" Yet another Demon Race Advanced Demigod arrived, striking towards Ye Yunfei.
There were three Demon Race Advanced Demigods in total!
Ye Yunfei stomped his foot. A Teleportation Earth Formation beneath his feet erupted, teleporting himself and those around him away.
*Boom boom…*
At the same time, large numbers of Earth Formations and Formations moved swiftly from the surroundings, violently crashing towards the Demon Race Advanced Demigod attacking Ye Yunfei.
"Break!" The Demon Race Advanced Demigod attacking Ye Yunfei was furious. He opened his mouth and spat out a seven-story demon pagoda that rapidly enlarged, instantly shattering two Earth Formations and dozens of Formations.
However, the sheer number of Earth Formations and Formations Ye Yunfei had laid in this expanse of void was truly immense. Immediately, even more Earth Formations and Formations came rumbling over to collide with this Demon Race Advanced Demigod.
From each Danger Zone and Death Trap emerged all sorts of strange and sinister things to besiege the Demon Race Advanced Demigod.
Though these Earth Formations couldn't inflict real damage to this Demon Race Advanced Demigod, they did succeed in restraining his movements to a certain extent, slowing him down considerably.
"Take action, surround and kill the brat surnamed Ye!" More Demon Race Demigods charged towards Ye Yunfei.
There were Initial Demigods and Intermediate Demigods—sixteen in total!
"The Demon Race has really gone all out to deal with you this time! They actually sent over a dozen Demigods! Including three Advanced Demigods and one Perfected Demigod! With a lineup like this, they could probably annihilate the vast majority of world clusters and forces within the Chaotic Void. It's fortunate the Fire Clan experts came to help you. Otherwise, three Advanced Demigods plus one Perfected Demigod—you definitely wouldn't be able to handle them," Hun Lao remarked involuntarily upon seeing the Demon Race Demigods.
"Indeed. Without the aid of these Fire Clan experts, I truly couldn't handle three Advanced Demigods and one Perfected Demigod," Ye Yunfei nodded.
With Ye Yunfei's current strength, dealing with Intermediate Demigods wasn't a problem, but facing Advanced Demigods—especially Perfected Demigods—was rather difficult.
At this moment, among the three Demon Race Advanced Demigods, two were locked in combat with the Fire Clan Advanced Demigod. The remaining one, while breaking through the Earth Formations and Formations blocking his way, continued charging towards Ye Yunfei.
Ye Yunfei, on the other hand, utilized the Space Transmission Plate, Time Boots, and Teleportation Earth Formations to constantly evade, not intending to engage in a head-on confrontation with this Demon Race Advanced Demigod.
Besides this Demon Race Advanced Demigod, the Primary and Intermediate Demigods were also encircling, pursuing, and attempting to cut off Ye Yunfei's escape routes.
"Young Master Ye, let us engage in battle. These Demon Race Primary and Intermediate Demigods, we can handle them," the Fire Clan Intermediate Demigod said to Ye Yunfei.
Up to this point, only the Fire Clan's Advanced Demigod had acted on Ye Yunfei's side. The other Demigods hadn't made their move yet.
"Alright, then make your move," Ye Yunfei nodded.
*Boom boom…*
All the Primary and Intermediate Demigods on Ye Yunfei's side simultaneously appeared, each unleashing their own energy pressure, like erupting volcanoes.
"Kill!" Nine Demigods on Ye Yunfei's side charged forward together.
In terms of Demigod numbers, the Demon Race held the advantage—they had sixteen Primary and Intermediate Demigods in total. Ye Yunfei's side only had nine.
However, when coordinated with the vast number of Earth Formations and Formations Ye Yunfei had laid, this compensated for the numerical disadvantage.
The nine Demigods each fixed their sights on their chosen targets, and intense combat erupted between the two sides.
"How is this possible? How could the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds have so many Demigods?"
"No, at least half of these Demigods from the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds are from the Fire Clan!"
… The Demon Race Demigod experts were all a mix of shock and fury.
Ye Yunfei manipulated the Earth Formations and Formations to assist the Demigods on his side.
And so, within this expanse of void, an intense battle of Demigods completely erupted. On Ye Yunfei's side, eleven Demigods faced off against the Demon Race's nineteen Demigods!
"You deal with those other fellows. Ye Yunfei is mine!" the Demon Race Advanced Demigod who was continuously chasing Ye Yunfei shouted.
This Demon Race Advanced Demigod had been charging towards Ye Yunfei all along, while Ye Yunfei used Earth Formations and Formations to obstruct him, coupled with the Space Transmission Plate, Time Boots, and Teleportation Earth Formations to constantly evade.
*Rumble…*
The Demon Race Advanced Demigod unleashed vast waves of devilish energy and Soul Power energy, suppressing Ye Yunfei from a distance. He also utilized spatial secret arts to seal the space where Ye Yunfei was located.
However, Ye Yunfei's strength had increased significantly during this period. Although he still lacked the confidence to face an Advanced Demigod head-on, he was capable of shaking off the energy suppression from an Advanced Demigod expert. Moreover, Hun Lao was also using spatial energy and spatial secret arts to help Ye Yunfei resist.
For the time being, one chased and the other fled. That Demon Race Advanced Demigod couldn't catch up to Ye Yunfei for now.
"Kill! Everyone, charge together! Kill Ye Yunfei and all living beings of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds! Don't leave a single one alive!" At this moment, the Demon Race army in the distance also began their charge.
"Form up into battle arrays!" a Demon Race Demigod shouted.
Immediately, the Demon Race army began forming various battle arrays, transforming into numerous ancient devil gods that charged forward from a commanding height.
The Demon Race was an ancient, powerful force with an exceedingly long heritage, possessing many sophisticated battle arrays of tremendous power.
One Demon Race battle array after another swept forward horizontally, instantly smashing through many Earth Formations and Formations.
By this time, the army of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds had already assembled, standing before the worlds themselves.
The Demon Race army surged forward like a tidal wave, rolling in like raging billows.
"Prepare to meet the enemy!" Elder Kong stood before the army and shouted.
"Prepare to meet the enemy!" the army of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds roared in unison, their rolling sound waves soaring skyward.
Seeing the Demon Race army charging forward like a tide, continuously destroying the Earth Formations he had laid earlier, Ye Yunfei stomped his foot. Earth Formations and Formations erupted simultaneously.
The Earth Formations and Formations laid by Ye Yunfei couldn't stop the advance of Demigods, but they were effective against this ordinary Demon Race army.
The speed of the tide-like Demon Race advance immediately slowed. Many Demon Race troops became trapped within Danger Zones and Death Traps, letting out one miserable scream after another. Still others were trapped in all sorts of Formations; though they charged left and right, desperately attempting to break the arrays, they remained unable to escape.
"Young Master Ye is truly monstrously talented!" Fire Clan Elder Two, who had been hiding in the shadows keeping an eye on the Demon Race Perfected Demigod, couldn't help but marvel at the situation before him.
The role played by the Earth Formations and Formations laid by Ye Yunfei was immense, completely turning this expanse of void into the home turf of their own forces!
Otherwise, based on the strength comparison of both sides, the Demon Race would already have gained the upper hand!
