Chapter 720: Chapter 657: The Army of the Races Has Come (Part 2)

This Level 17 was achieved solely by force-feeding her Heavenly and Earthly Treasures.

Besides, what did Level 17 even mean? In this chaotic era, it was not much different from being an ordinary person.

Only by reaching Rank 3 could one truly establish a foothold.

Of course, Tu Xiao’an didn’t expect his sister to accomplish much, nor did he intentionally make her practice Cultivation.

It was just that she got bored, and having eaten so many Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, her awakening was only a matter of course.

"Little brother, is something wrong outside? Shouldn’t you go take a look?"

Tu Xiao’an shook his head. "No need. Nothing in the world is more important than having a meal with my mom and sister."

In reality, his true form, Snake King Tu Xiao’an, was already dealing with the situation outside.

The human doppelgänger’s mission was to protect them without leaving their side for a moment.

......

Above the city walls of the Snake Palace, Tu Xiao’an led the Snake Leaders of various factions and clans to survey the scene outside. One by one, they gasped sharply, their hearts sinking into the abyss.

What a terrifying scene lay before them. It was even grander and more horrifying than an army of a hundred thousand Celestial Soldiers and Generals.

Above, like an oppressive storm cloud, countless Rank Three Demon Spirits bore down on them as if walking on level ground.

On the grounds of She Mountain, the Demons of the allied races’ army surged forward like a tidal wave. In an instant, they covered every inch of land visible from the Snake Palace, a dense, innumerable mass.

The once majestic Snake Palace had become a caged beast, surrounded from all directions, from the sky above to the ground below.

The combined Demon Qi of countless Demons solidified, creating a pressure more despairing than Mount Everest itself. An unprecedented sense of suffocation swept through the entire Snake Palace. On the tower walls, the Snake Demon Spirits stared in horror at the terrifying scene, a sight that grew more dreadful the more they processed it. Their hearts felt as if they were being squeezed by a giant hand. A wave of terror washed over them, making their hair stand on end, and their minds went completely blank.

’How can we fight this?’

The sky, the land—everything was enveloped by the allied army, forming an impenetrable siege. Not a single gap could be seen anywhere on She Mountain.

At this moment, amidst the terrifying, oppressive clouds, two Deep Mountain Demon Kings with soaring Demon Qi appeared. It was the Yellow Demon King and the Gray Demon King.

Immediately after, a row of racial leaders, each exuding the aura of a Demon King, appeared behind the two Deep Mountain Demon Kings.

They were the leaders of the Twelve Great Races. Among them, Tu Xiao’an only recognized the Saint Peng King, the King of Hundred Birds. He had never seen the others before.

The two Deep Mountain Demon Kings looked triumphant, gazing down upon the Snake Palace as if they were Ruling the World. The Yellow Demon King’s gaze suddenly locked onto Tu Xiao’an on the city wall. He sneered, "Snake Demon King, this king asks you: are you scared?"

"..."

A dark expression crossed Tu Xiao’an’s face. ’Could you say something with a little more gravitas? That weak taunt doesn’t match the massive army at your back.’

Immediately, Tu Xiao’an floated up, staring at the Yellow Demon King’s gloating face. "You damned Weasel," he said. "We have a grudge, but did you really need to unite the Twelve Great Races to invade my She Mountain? Was it really necessary? All I did was kill one of your doppelgängers."

They say Weasels are vindictive. If you provoke one, it will definitely find an opportunity for frantic revenge.

"And you, Gray Demon King, you damned rat! I let you off the hook in the Purple Bamboo Forest. Instead of being grateful, you’ve come here to court death!"

Hearing this, the Gray Demon King bellowed, "Damned Snake, cut the crap! You have only one choice now: surrender immediately if you don’t want the Snake Race to be exterminated. Otherwise, your entire race, including you, will be wiped from the Yaoling Mountain Range!"

"You think you can annihilate my Snake Race?" The corner of Tu Xiao’an’s mouth curled up in a disdainful smirk.

"That’s right, just us."

Suddenly, the leaders of the Twelve Great Races behind them released their auras, pressing down as they glared at Tu Xiao’an like tigers stalking their prey.

The auras of the twelve Great Demon Kings instantly enveloped Tu Xiao’an, and the space around him shattered.

BOOM...!

Tu Xiao’an couldn’t react in time. Caught off guard by this terrifying, condensed Demon King aura, he was knocked directly out of the sky above the Snake Palace.

He plummeted violently downwards.

"Your Majesty..."

"Your Majesty..."

The Snake Leaders on the city wall were instantly aghast.

’Damn it!’

Tu Xiao’an cursed inwardly as he hurriedly stabilized himself, finally landing steadily on the ground.

"Kill the Snake King, and we’ll make a name for ourselves! Charge!"

Below the Snake Palace, the ground was already swarming with countless Demons. The moment Tu Xiao’an landed, he became the target of everyone. Terrifying roars echoed around him, and all he could see were the savage faces of half-human, half-beast Demons.

"Insolent fools."

Watching the Demons swarming him from all directions in endless waves, Tu Xiao’an’s deep blue aura flared to life. He stomped his foot on the ground, and the deep blue aura erupted outwards in a shockwave.

In an instant, the surrounding area fell silent. Bizarrely shaped ice sculptures appeared, stretching out for a kilometer.

All the Demons within a one-kilometer radius were frozen solid, numbering in the tens of thousands.

Normally, with the strength of Tu Xiao’an’s Ice Frost Power, he could have turned an area of a hundred li into a mountain of ice.

However, due to the sheer number of Demons, his ability was greatly diminished.

Even so, it was enough to stun the enemy forces. Below the Snake Palace, a massive, one-kilometer-wide, deep blue arena had formed. Tu Xiao’an stood atop the ice sculptures, lifted his chin slightly, and looked at the Yellow Demon King and Gray Demon King. "You two idiots," he said. "Even if you have a grudge against me, there’s no need to cause such widespread death and destruction in the Yaoling Mountain Range. If you have the guts, come down and fight me. I’ll take on both of you. Do you dare?"

Hearing this, the Yellow Demon King and Gray Demon King glanced at each other, their expressions turning to scorn. "Snake Demon King, this is a war between races. Have you spent too much time in the Human World? Are you trying to fight like some street punk?"

"This Snake King asks: do you dare?"

"Hmph. Your goading is useless against us." It was as if the Yellow Demon King and the Gray Demon King had already coordinated; they were determined to use their advantage and give Tu Xiao’an no quarter.

However, the Demon Qi of the leaders of the Twelve Great Races flared. Each of them unleashed an attack toward Tu Xiao’an below. "Such arrogance! What makes you think you’re worthy of a one-on-one fight against two Deep Mountain Demon Kings?"

Suddenly, twelve terrifying Energy Light Waves blasted towards Tu Xiao’an like a cataclysmic flood.

"Fuck!" Tu Xiao’an’s expression turned grim. He didn’t dare to be arrogant enough to take the hit head-on. An attack from twelve Great Demon Kings at once was no joke.

SWOOSH...!

Tu Xiao’an vanished from his spot. The next second, a world-shattering explosion erupted where he had been, instantly disintegrating the kilometer of ice.

"Your Majesty, are you all right?"

Tu Xiao’an reappeared in the sky above the city wall.

"I’m fine."

"Your Majesty, let us go down and fight them to the death! Not a single Snake in the Snake Race fears death!" the Snake Leaders clamored one after another.

Tu Xiao’an quickly said, "Don’t be hasty. There will be a time for you to act, but it is not now."

If the experts of the Snake Race went out now, they would be swallowed whole. The sheer numbers were on a completely different level.

Never mind the two Deep Mountain Demon Kings and the twelve Great Demon Kings; Tu Xiao’an’s keen senses estimated that the number of Rank Three Demon Spirits on She Mountain was over ten thousand.

’Over ten thousand... what did that even mean?’

Not only had the Yellow Demon King’s and Gray Demon King’s forces sent all their Rank 3s, but the Twelve Great Races had likely held nothing back either.

In addition, there were many experts from vassal races.

The fact that they could form a scene resembling an oppressive storm cloud above the Snake Palace told you just how many Rank Three Demon Spirits were present.

......

「Inside the Fox Race’s Demon King’s Castle」

On a luxurious Cloud Bed, the Fox Immortal King reclined gracefully. Her eyes watched the space above, where a horrifying image of the Snake Palace being invaded by the allied army was displayed.

"Brother Liu, you mustn’t blame your little sister for not helping the Snake Race. I am truly powerless to do so," the Fox Immortal King murmured as if in a dream.

Everyone knew the allied army led by the Yellow Demon King and Gray Demon King was powerful and terrifying, but seeing it now with her own eyes, she realized she had still underestimated their strength.

Any power would be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot before such an army, to say nothing of the two Deep Mountain Demon Kings presiding over them.

"Big Sis, it looks like the Snake Race is done for. That poor little Snake King... They’re clearly just ganging up on him!"

The Seventh Sister, Mengqi, spoke, her delicate body trembling.

"I’m afraid that after today, the Snake Race will be no more in the Yaoling Mountain Range."

Several other Fox Demons beside her shook their heads in regret.

Just seeing the aura of the allied army was enough to make despair bloom in their hearts.

The allied army led by the Yellow Demon King and the Gray Demon King represented nearly half the power in the entire Yaoling Mountain Range.
