At this moment, deep within the realm of the Demon Clan, Wang Long and Song Shuping naturally could not overlook this phenomenon. They looked up at the beams of golden light and both felt a sense of relief; at least the information about the appearance of the Divine Clan's leader here was not mistaken. Otherwise, they would likely be trapped here indefinitely.
If the Divine Army retreated, they would be even less inclined to expose their identities and force their way out. Doing so would be no different from delivering themselves right into the hands of the Brahma Demon King.
"Should we also make a break for it?" After sending a few Demon Clan warriors away, Song Shuping approached Wang Long and whispered.
"Haha, even the Brahma Demon King hasn't shown up yet. Why are you in such a hurry?" Wang Long looked up at the commotion in the sky and couldn't help but chuckle.
"I'm not Cai Burin; there's no need to rush. But you know how it is—dressed like this, I feel completely out of place! We should get closer to see what's going on. If anything happens, we can react sooner, right?"
"No, quite the opposite. We should stick to our plan and take this opportunity to find that Extraordinary Treasure. I want to see what kind of miraculous item can attract both the divine and demonic clans, along with so many Ancient Beasts. If we don't figure this out, I won't be able to sleep well."
"Then you can lose sleep over it. Right now, all I'm thinking about is how to get out of this skin."
"Haha, this is the first time I've heard you refer to yourself like that. Just for that, I think this trip is worth it. Let's go. We need to speed up; those Demon Clan warriors will start getting suspicious soon. Even if we want to shed this disguise, we have to deal with them first."
Hearing Wang Long's words, Song Shuping's eyes filled with murderous intent as he looked at their group without a hint of hesitation.
Two Black Crows startled from the trees, but Wang Long and Song Shuping had no interest in killing them; they had already returned to their original appearances. Following the clues inferred from those unfortunate souls' words, they sped off.
In the sky, Victory Over Heaven, Heaven's Binding, and North Heaven unleashed their full power. The once imposing Demon Lords dared not approach them and could only attack and defend from a distance using Spiritual Essence. However, the appearance of several Ancient Beasts in the sky alleviated some pressure on them.
The Death Abyss coiled on the ground, but every time it struck upwards, all three leaders had to respond, let alone the other Ancient Deities.
A Giant Ape appeared within their attack range, along with a Giant Eagle and a massive bear on the ground. Their formidable strength made things quite tricky for them.
The Three Great Lords could handle these four beasts, but since even the Brahma Demon King had yet to appear, they naturally could not expend all their energy. Instead, they focused their attacks on the Ancient Demon Lords, quickly opening a path for their forces. Once they broke through this line of defense, these four Ancient Beasts would turn their attention to attacking the remaining powerful members of the Demon Clan, thereby dispersing their strength. When it came time to contend for the Extraordinary Treasure, it would greatly benefit their divine clan.
The absent Brahma Demon King was engaged in fierce battle with the three leaders of the divine clan while further away lay the main forces of both the Demon Clan and divine clan armies, along with lurking Ancient Beasts surrounding them. Wang Long and his Dragon City forces were merely caught up in an event triggered by an Extraordinary Treasure emerging at this critical juncture that significantly impacted the entire divine realm. It was likely that even Brahma Demon King —who initially sought to set a trap—and the Four Sect Masters of the divine clan who aimed to profit from counterattacks could not have anticipated this.
Wang Long and his group quickly checked two nodes and were rushing toward a third when they spotted a large boulder at the foot of a mountain. Shunshen was about to leap over it casually when Wang Long suddenly grabbed him.
"Leader, what's wrong?"
"This giant stone formation is strange. If I'm not mistaken, it should be a stone array."
"A stone array? How is that possible? Why haven't I sensed any Spiritual Energy Fluctuation?" Song Shuping also lowered his head to look below, unsure of what was there.
"The fact that we can't sense any Spiritual Essence fluctuations is precisely what makes this strange. Is there really a formation in this world that not only prevents Spiritual Essence from leaking but also doesn't affect the surrounding Spiritual Essence?"
"What kind of formation would that be?" Song Shuping shook his head. "Since it's a formation, it must be intended to function after being set up. Whether for reconnaissance, attacking enemies, or an Illusion Array, it needs to interact with the Spiritual Essence in Primordial Power to harness it. If it hasn't leaked even a trace of Spiritual Essence, then it's a completely useless stone array. What's the point of setting up such a formation?"
"Is it really useless?" Wang Long smiled and shook his head. "If this formation is meant to gather Spiritual Essence, do you still think it's a useless array?"
"Gathering Spiritual Essence?" Song Shuping's eyes lit up. Normally, he didn't study formations much—otherwise, he wouldn't have been so thoroughly defeated by a Flying Cross Star Morning Annihilation Formation before, let alone this obscure formation. However, now that Wang Long mentioned it, he immediately recalled something. "So you're saying this could very well be the hiding place of some Extraordinary Treasure? But who set up this formation? If it was laid down by the Brahma Demon King himself, then this place could very likely be a trap!"
Wang Long shook his head. "No. This formation was probably created by that Extraordinary Treasure itself through some means."
"Uh, really? You can even deduce that?" Song Shuping was greatly impressed.
Wang Long laughed. "What's so impressive about that? You just told me the answer yourself."
"What do you mean?"
"This formation is set up so discreetly, and this is the core territory of the Demon Clan. The experts from the divine race certainly wouldn't search using methods that could turn mountains upside down. In that case, they might fly right over here and overlook it. What kind of trap would that be? It would just be a joke. The only one who wouldn't want people to notice this gathering spirit formation but had to create one would be the Extraordinary Treasure hidden here."
"Impressive!"
"Alright, now isn't the time for flattery. Let's get moving and secure that Extraordinary Treasure so we can take absolute control."
"I really appreciate both of you for saving me so much time searching for treasures. I don't know how to thank you!"
Just as Wang Long and Song Shuping were about to take action, a chilling voice suddenly came from behind them.
Wang Long and Song Shuping were greatly alarmed; they never expected someone could approach them undetected from such a distance—after all, based on the sudden interruption earlier, the person had clearly heard their conversation!
Not looking back was not a big deal, but this time when he turned around, even Wang Long felt a sense of despair in his heart.
Brahma Demon King!
In fact, Wang Long should have guessed it long ago. The fact that Brahma Demon King had not appeared on the battlefield against the Three Great Lords of the divine realm meant that he was definitely waiting for that Extraordinary Treasure. While we were caught up in the joy of potentially finding the Extraordinary Treasure first, we completely overlooked the possibility that they might also be lying in ambush around here.
At this moment, behind Brahma Demon King, the Demon Lord of the Great Blade and three or four other Demon Lords appeared, all seemingly on par with Wang Long in strength. Coupled with Brahma Demon King's presence, it was not just about retreating safely; even if they wanted to die quickly, it seemed impossible.
"What are you two planning to do now? Surrender? Or wait until I knock you both down before you surrender?"
"Ah? This is quite strange. A defeated subordinate dares to bark in front of his master. How rare. You've grown some guts."
"Well, and a defeated subordinate actually boasts about knocking us down. How about this: we won't take advantage of you and will fight one by one. Let's see if you can really knock me down, and the loser will bow three times to the winner."
Brahma Demon King shot an unhappy glare at those Demon Lords who had interrupted him. They had failed to capture their opponents before, and it was unlikely they would be useful now. It would be better to start dealing with those around him directly!
"Ah!" Taking advantage of the anger stirred up by their words, Wang Long and Song Shuping immediately used their Shunshen ability to vanish into thin air.
