Chapter 6709 Devil Slaying

Xue Ying’s attack shook heaven and earth.

Only now did she truly display her power, and the result surprised even her.

This technique had been taught to her by the dragon souls within her. By channeling astral energy, she had unleashed the devastating attack in full.

Now, it seemed as if she had just used a dragon claw to kill an ant. The mace and its owner were both crushed in a single blow. The penetrative force left even Xue Ying stunned.

Originally, she had thought this attack would only knock back the giant devil and send its mace flying. That, she believed, was the limit.

Yet, when empowered by astral energy, the dragon race’s technique erupted with strength far beyond her expectations.

The Starry River warriors were also shocked.

Xue Ying had fought alongside them in the Seven Treasure Space, but she had been very low-key. She had only displayed power slightly greater than theirs.

However, with this one attack, the Starry River warriors realized that Xue Ying was frighteningly powerful.

“Wow... she’s so powerful!” Qu Yingying exclaimed, eyes shining, as if seeing Xue Ying for the first time.

Under so many gazes, Xue Ying felt faintly embarrassed. She had been a bit too flashy this time, and that was not what she wanted.

“Good,” Long Chen said, nodding. “You’ve gained the dragon souls’ support. That means you’ve fully earned their approval.”

This result pleased Long Chen as well. With the dragon souls backing her, Xue Ying would be able to wield far more of the dragon race’s divine abilities in the future.

The blessing of the dragon souls had merged with her own will. That had caused her attack to unleash such unexpected power.

“Don’t just stand around! I want all our enemies slain in three breaths! Big Sister Yingying, get ready to move us!” shouted Long Chen.

“Kill!”

Only then did the Starry River warriors react. With no more misgivings, they fought all-out and blasted these devil creatures apart in an instant.

During this time, Qu Yingying set up her formation.

Meanwhile, corpses vanished from the ground as Zhi Zhi cleaned the battlefield with terrifying efficiency.

Starlight flashed and they were gone.

Not long after, countless terrifying auras locked down on this place, but it was too late.

...

“How many formation discs do you have left?” asked Long Chen.

“Not that many, but I can still transport us more than ten times. If I had known we needed this many, I would have prepared more!” grumbled Qu Yingying.

These formation discs had been gathered at Long Chen’s instruction. However, Qu Yingying hadn’t expected such a pace. Now, she was running out of them.

If they ran out, they would have to leave the core area. Otherwise, once supreme experts noticed them, the danger would be real.

Long Chen quickly changed their strategy.

He instructed, “Then for now, we’ll stop using the formation discs. We switch to blitz attacks—wiping out our enemies before they can react.”

When the giant devil had fallen, Long Chen had clearly sensed Cang Lu absorbing an enormous surge of Bloodfiend Qi. This signified that the stronger the outsider devil was, the purer the Bloodfiend Qi released in their death.

Since they were already exposed, they had to strike fast and strike hard. Before the enemy’s Divine Sovereigns could mobilize, they would slaughter as many outsider devils as possible.

...

Blood filled the air.

The Starry River Legion descended upon another group of outsider devils. As they clashed, the devils let out piercing shrieks—most likely some form of warning signal.

In an instant, the three million Starry River warriors annihilated this group of outsider devils.

With Qu Yingying’s Radiant Starlight World active, the devils were cut down like melons. The battle ended in seconds.

After the battle, Qin Yu directly chose a new direction and led the way.

The Starry River Legion rushed off and quickly ran into another army of outsider devils rushing in as reinforcements.

As a result, over a million outsider devils were wiped out as swiftly.

The Starry River Legion sped off once more.

Long Chen spread his senses. Unless some extremely terrifying existence was approaching them, Long Chen would just let Qin Yu command everyone.

After all, an army of thousands was easy to assemble; a single competent general was not.

Qin Yu had great talent as a general, and this was her chance to hone it.

Just as the Starry River Legion was rushing over the land, a furious roar shook the world.

“Damn nine star dregs! Let’s see where you run now!”

Outsider devils poured in from all directions.

Qin Yu’s luck was bad. The path she had chosen led them straight into an enclosure of the outsider devils.

There was clearly a powerful existence directing the devils—one that had locked onto their position and predicted their route.

Long Chen had sensed it, but he had not warned Qin Yu.

Amongst this group were over ten powerful experts on par with the giant devil from before. They led an enormous army of outsider devils, and their numbers exceeded the Starry River Legion by over a hundredfold.

Qin Yu’s expression was grave, but she reacted instantly. Orders rang out as the formation contracted.

Starlight converged, wrapping around the legion as they assumed a defensive formation.

Enemies charged from all sides, their advance wild yet in perfect unison. In such circumstances, forcing a direct breakthrough would be suicide.

Qin Yu’s decision was flawless.

As the Starry River warriors tightened their formation, each warrior’s astral energy linked with those beside them, layering defenses upon defenses.

The astral energy of three million Starry River warriors layered on top of each other seamlessly. Under Qu Yingying’s Radiant Starlight World, their power fused into a single whole.

BOOM!

Countless attacks smashed into the Starry River Legion’s defense. However, it held like an unbreakable barrier.

At this moment, Qu Yingying’s value was fully revealed. Her Radiant Starlight World unified every strand of power, and even those powerful existences amongst the outsider devils couldn’t rattle their defense.

Various divine abilities and weapons struck their astral barrier at full force, producing nothing more than ripples.

On the other hand, after their charge was stopped in its tracks, the charging devils plunged into a chaotic mess. Their momentum carried them crashing into their own ranks.

After all, most outsider devils were mindless. Only the best among them possessed true intelligence.

Countless devils surrounded the Starry River Legion. They were completely enveloped.

“Arc Slaughter Formation!” Qin Yu commanded sharply.

The Starry River warriors’ spherical formation split apart, transforming into rapidly spinning astral saw blades that tore into the chaos.

Blood mist dyed the world scarlet as outsider devils were sliced apart where they stood.

Astral energy transformed into massive blades that carved through the sky. With the Radiant Starlight World supporting them, these blades were powerful enough to shatter even divine weapons—flesh and bone stood no chance.

The Starry River Legion’s transition from defense to offense was flawless.

The switch in formations was smooth, and their power was very concentrated. This revealed the unity of hearts and wills among the three million warriors.

In a few breaths, countless outsider devils were sliced apart. The rest scattered in panic, but more than half the encirclement had already been wiped out in the chaos.

“Useless trash, get out of the way! Only the chiefs will attack! Come with me!” roared a devil holding a spiked club.

Devil flames burst out of him, and he charged at the Starry River warriors.
