The battle had raged for three full days. While the main force of the demon alliance had not yet arrived, the assault squads led by demon generals and Mahayana cultivators had been continuously harassing them.
These squads would fly high into the sky, evading the defensive weapons below, and launch attacks from above.
Several times, they had come perilously close to hitting the teleportation array, but they had been stubbornly repelled.
However, the enemy's offensive grew fiercer, and the frontline positions were constantly lost, leaving everyone deeply worried.
Almost everyone wore worry and exhaustion on their faces, except for Elder Da Zhuang, who remained cheerful.
"I say, Xiao Xin, why the long face? Give us a smile."
Wan Juxin glanced at the carefree Da Zhuang and shot him an exasperated look.
"Hmph, what are you so worried about? Mere demon brats, Liu family rascals, hardly worth mentioning."
"Since Elder Da Zhuang is so powerful, why don't you go to the frontline and face the Demon Commanders?"
Wan Juxin sighed helplessly. With no enemies attacking at the moment, a few taunts to vent his frustration were acceptable.
"Hmph, who says I'm afraid? It's just that this defensive formation is equally important. That's why I chose to stay here to ensure our reinforcements arrive. This place is more crucial than the front.
It's just that these are only Mahayana cultivators who have come. I'm not getting enough of a fight. If there were a couple of Demon Commanders at the Tribulation stage, hehe, then it would be truly satisfying to kill them."
Elder Da Zhuang smiled smugly and took a swig from his wine gourd.
"Elder, you're boasting again."
"If Elder's combat prowess were as great as his ability to brag."
"Elder, why don't you just slap all the demons to death?"
Hearing the sarcastic remarks from the surrounding disciples, Elder Da Zhuang glared, about to retort, when suddenly a Mahayana Elder pointed to the sky.
"Tribulation stage cultivators and Demon Commanders are approaching!"
Everyone immediately looked up. In the south, two figures, one large and one small, were flying rapidly towards them.
The two figures were charging straight ahead, and as they passed, spirit energy cannons were fired at them. However, their speed was too great, and within moments, they were upon them.
Even if a spirit energy cannon occasionally hit them, the damage was merely like an itch.
"Elder Da Zhuang, are you blessed with foresight?"
Wan Juxin, terrified, immediately picked up his magic artifact, ready to defend against the incoming enemies.
But how could their mere ten Mahayana cultivators match a Demon Commander at the Tribulation stage?
It was likely that with a single palm strike, they would be annihilated, let alone protect the teleportation array.
Not every Demon Commander was as verbose as Qiong Ku. This Demon Commander Qiu Wu, upon arriving, said nothing and directly unleashed a world-shattering palm strike.
In his view, the ants below were merely a matter of a single palm, and perhaps this palm would also blow away the teleportation arrays.
Boom!!!
After a deafening roar, the scene below was not one of utter destruction as Demon Commander Qiu Wu had expected.
Above the teleportation array, an Yin-Yang Dao rhythm domain had appeared.
On the outermost layer, the power of the Eight Trigrams was constantly rotating, the brilliance of the Five Elements dazzled the eyes, and in the center, the Four Symbols and Two Principles formed a perfect Yin-Yang Dao rhythm.
And it was Elder Da Zhuang who, with great effort, held up the Yin-Yang Dao rhythm with both hands.
"Elder Da Zhuang..."
Everyone looked at him in astonishment. They had all assumed he was just an ordinary Mahayana cultivator, but they never expected him to be so powerful.
He could withstand a Demon Commander's attack?
Demon Commander Qiu Wu and Liu Zhongwu above, surprised, frowned and carefully observed the Dao rhythm domain below.
They were not in a hurry; all the enemy Tribulation stage cultivators were surrounded by their forces, so no one here could threaten them.
As they observed, they continued to strike the Yin-Yang Dao rhythm.
"Demon Commander, Liu Zhongwu, today I, Elder, will show you that my Yin-Yang Sect is not to be trifled with!"
Elder Da Zhuang roared, and all the runes within the Yin-Yang Dao rhythm gradually merged.
"Eight Trigrams, Unite!"
"Five Elements, Unite!"
"Four Symbols, Unite!"
"Yin-Yang... Unite!"
With Elder Da Zhuang's roar, the Yin-Yang, Four Symbols, Five Elements, and Eight Trigrams all disappeared, transforming into a chaotic domain.
This was chaos, the origin, the one, the beginning, the source of all things beyond all Dao rhythms, the beginning of the universe.
And Elder Da Zhuang's aura, from the peak Mahayana stage, had miraculously broken through to the Tribulation stage!
"Seal!"
Elder Da Zhuang roared again, leaping up, carrying the chaotic domain, and charging directly at the two enemies.
In an instant, the chaotic domain expanded, trapping Demon Commander Qiu Wu and Liu Zhongwu within.
"Hahahaha, this is the ultimate form of the Yin-Yang Dao rhythm!
What a pity, young Wan Lei is no longer here. He was the only one in this world besides me who could successfully manifest the chaotic domain.
Young Wan Lei, if you have a spirit in heaven, then watch as I, with our chaotic domain, kill stronger opponents across realms!"
Those below watched Elder Da Zhuang with concern, knowing that such a secret technique to forcibly increase cultivation must have endless drawbacks, and it was possible that Elder Da Zhuang might be crippled or perish because of it!
The two enemies, seeing this, immediately attacked Elder Da Zhuang, who was also within the domain. But how could they break through a chaotic domain of the same level?
"Chaos! Suppress!"
With Elder Da Zhuang's powerful suppression, the two, finding themselves unable to move, immediately launched an attack directly at the domain.
Using their own power to break the method with force, they forcefully destroyed the domain.
Elder Da Zhuang's domain was constantly subjected to the fierce attacks from the enemy. He was merely a Tribulation stage cultivator whose cultivation had been forcibly boosted by a secret technique, not a true Tribulation stage powerhouse.
At this moment, facing the enemy's attacks, he was struggling immensely.
Those below suddenly felt a more powerful pressure emanating from Elder Da Zhuang, but everyone's expressions turned even grimmer.
Elder Da Zhuang was forcibly burning his cultivation and lifespan.
"Hurry and attack. He can't last long burning his life force."
Liu Zhongwu was overjoyed at this turn of events and quickened his attacks on the surrounding domain.
The pressure of the surrounding domain grew greater and greater, and Liu Zhongwu felt as if he were about to be crushed into powder.
"If I had true Tribulation stage power, I could crush both of you to death without suffering any harm.
What a pity, what a pity..."
After suppressing them for half an hour, Elder Da Zhuang was at his limit, on the verge of death.
"It's a shame that the only two people in this world capable of manifesting the chaotic domain are gone. The legacy is broken.
However, it's worth it. Trading my lingering, decaying life for the lives of two Tribulation stage Demon Commanders, it's worth it!
I have lived up to the Yin-Yang Sect!
Children of the Yin-Yang Sect, today Elder will show you whether Da Zhuang is truly awesome!"
The power of the chaotic domain suddenly contracted to its extreme, and Elder Da Zhuang's body began to swell at a visible rate.
"Dodge quickly!"
Wan Juxin's eyes widened, and he immediately led the surrounding elders to retreat.
As they reached the mountaintop, a thunderous explosion occurred behind them.
When the dust settled, there was no one left behind.
This kind old man, who only knew how to eat meat, drink, and joke with disciples every day, the elder who always bragged about Da Zhuang's greatness,
At the most critical juncture of the war, he used his own life to forcefully take a Demon Commander and a Tribulation stage cultivator to their deaths together!
The chaotic domain no longer existed in the world.
Elder Wan Juxin's eyes shed tears of blood, and he murmured,
"Awesome..."
