"What could it be? Don't scare people for no reason," Cai Burin was also startled by Wang Long's appearance, jumping up and looking around, but he didn't see anything and couldn't help but complain a bit.
"Something is definitely off," Song Shuping calmly focused and looked up at the sky.
At this moment, two inconspicuous black dots flashed above them. If they hadn't looked closely, even with their keen eyesight, they might not have noticed them. Moreover, it was just two black dots, which posed no threat to them.
However, the three of them now understood where the problem lay.
"This should be a node of a magic formation; we must have been discovered by those pursuers."
"Damn it! If that's the case, we might as well keep running; wherever we go, they can catch up. It would be better to turn around and fight them head-on!"
"Not yet; it's not time for us to fight desperately. Even if we do fight, it should be under the most complicated circumstances at the boundary with the Divine Clan, where we can take advantage of the chaos," Wang Long calmly shook his head, rejecting the suggestion.
"How about we escape using teleportation? That way, at least for a short time, they won't be able to find us."
"That's useless. You can't teleport forever. With them chasing us so closely, whatever we want to do is restricted. Besides, no one knows if they have set up traps around us. If you teleport right into their ambush, we would be in real trouble. So passively escaping is definitely not a solution."
Cai Burin and Song Shuping's eyes lit up; they knew that since Wang Long said this, he must have a plan.
"Hehe, although our strength is currently at a disadvantage, who says we are in a position of being hunted?" A strong killing intent flashed in Wang Long's eyes.
"Have you found anything?" The Giant Force Demon Lord led the other Three Great Demon Lords into the forest following a captain's guidance, but there was no sign of Wang Long and the others here, not even a trace of battle.
"My Lord Demon Lord, over there is something strange; it should be left by those enemies, but there is no danger at all. We don't quite understand what it means, so we specially invited several Demon Lords to come and take a look."
The Giant Force Demon Lord nodded: "Lead the way."
When they arrived at the place indicated by the captain, they saw several Spirit Runes and stones on the ground. It indeed looked like a small magic formation, but just as that captain had said, they felt no danger from it at all.
The Giant Force Demon Lord couldn't decipher their intentions for a moment and turned to another captain, asking, "What is the current location of Wang Long and his group?"
"They are ten miles away, directly to the north, and they have stopped for some unknown reason," the captain replied. He was in charge of the Flying Cross Star Morning Annihilation Formation and was well aware of Wang Long's movements. Upon hearing the Giant Force Demon Lord's inquiry, he responded immediately.
"This is even stranger. They are ten miles away, yet they set up such a small formation here. Even if there is an issue, it shouldn't have much power. It's baffling; could it be that they have lost their minds?"
"What Water Crossing Demon Lord said is absolutely right," Flying Spirit Demon Lord sneered, not caring whether there were any traps as he stretched lazily. The Giant Force Demon Lord frowned at this; however, given the other party's significant status, he couldn't let a minor issue lead to conflict. "In my opinion, this formation they set up is completely useless. At most, they just want to confuse us about their intentions. Giant Force Demon Lord, instead of focusing our attention here, we should think about how to tighten the encirclement so they have nowhere to escape. As long as they make one misstep and we surround them completely, then with our Four Great Demon Lords working together, we can surely crush them. This is much better than dawdling here."
"However, although their strength is not on par with ours, their average combat power far exceeds ours. Can we withstand the breakthrough power of the three working with that one called Desperate and Evil? If we want to secure all directions like an iron wall, how much manpower and resources will we need? This formation may seem insignificant, but at least it can give us a hint about their next intentions... Wait? This should be a positioning formation. What use can it have?"
"A positioning formation?" The other Three Great Demon Lords burst into laughter even more. "A positioning formation? That has long been eliminated by the various races in the divine realm thousands of years ago. You must know that speed is of utmost importance in battle; even simpler formations are primarily used to locate our position and are mostly utilized in conjunction with other formations. But from what we've observed, they clearly don't have time to set up any formidable formations!"
"Positioning..." Ignoring the mockery from Feiling and the other three Demon Lords, the Giant Power God thought seriously for a moment when suddenly he sensed a wave of Spiritual Essence around them.
"Not good! They are coming!"
In an instant, the Giant Force Demon Lord understood all the cause and effect and realized what this small positioning formation was for.
However, understanding did not mean that all the warriors of the Demon Clan here could grasp it. Although they heard his loud shout, those warriors of the Demon Clan—including Flying Spirit Demon Lord and his two companions—didn't feel any need for caution; they had no idea what was "not good" or what they should be wary of.
The Flying Cross Formation not only helped them monitor Wang Long's group's position but also had considerable defensive power against surrounding Spiritual Essence. Even if a beast unrelated to them appeared within the range of the Flying Cross Star Morning Annihilation Formation, it would not escape their notice. Therefore, even if Wang Long had unexpected reinforcements, they could not sneak nearby without their knowledge!
Meanwhile, Wang Long, Cai Burin, and Song Shuping had somehow flashed into this area and launched a surprise attack on those bewildered experts of the Demon Clan!
"Positioning! Shunshen Song Shuping!" It was only at this moment that Flying Spirit Demon Lord and his companions realized what method Wang Long's group had employed.
But it was already too late; Wang Long's group had long been prepared. As soon as they appeared in mid-air, they completely ignored the four Demon Lords of Giant Power and unleashed their treasures directly into the ranks of those Demon Clan warriors. They never expected that Wang Long and his companions would dare to launch a sudden counterattack despite being at an absolute disadvantage!
With Cai Burin at the forefront, displaying a willingness to exchange his life for victory, the morale of the warriors who lacked fighting spirit was immediately shaken.
Human emotions are quite strange. When you find yourself in a disadvantageous position, the desire to win and survive often unleashes astonishing strength. However, when you are in an absolute advantageous position where victory seems guaranteed, there is a tendency to hope that others will take the risks, depleting the enemy's strength while you reap the rewards. This is why there have been countless examples of the few defeating the many.
Not to mention that now, facing Wang Long and his two companions, everyone knows that trying to eliminate these three would come at an immeasurable cost.
They are among the most formidable warriors of the Demon Clan, not comparable to those ordinary low-level cannon fodder demons!
Their survival means preserving the combat power and future elite of the Demon Clan!
Regardless of their thoughts, when confronted with the reckless momentum of Wang Long and his companions, the numerous members of the Demon Clan felt uneasy. There were hardly any who dared to fight against Wang Long. Meanwhile, those who could confront them directly, such as the Giant Force Demon Lord and other Ancient Demon Lords, were isolated from their own ranks. Unless these four disregarded the lives of their subordinates and forcibly used their magic powers, they would be unable to intervene in this chaotic battle.
"All units, listen up! Hold your positions and do not retreat! Anyone who disobeys will be executed on the spot!"
"Run! Those killing gods are coming after us!"
No one listened to him; they continued to flee in panic, not only disrupting their own formation but also dragging their comrades in other directions into chaos.
