Chapter 1334 - 1334: Strength in Numbers

As the black mist dispersed, and they saw the figures on the opposite side clearly, everyone including Fan Lei simultaneously let out a sigh of relief.

What appeared before them was a group of the Demon Race, featuring lions, tigers, bears, leopards, rabbits, goats, and more.

Rough estimate, there were no less than twenty thousand.

But this group's Realm wasn't high.

The leader, a cyan giant bear, had reached the Daoist Venerable Realm, but he was the only true expert among them.

Behind him, there were more than twenty Supreme level characters lined up.

The remaining more than three hundred were Celestial Venerables, and the rest were all beneath Celestial Venerable.

It seemed that these over twenty thousand demons had an imposing momentum.

Their appearances varied, and their large numbers stretched far off the horizon, enveloping in a dark mass that exuded a bloodthirsty ferocity.

But in the Cultivation Realm, power, not appearance or number, was what mattered.

The three Daoists from the Celestial Pill Department, although not combat-oriented, were at least at the rank of Daoist Venerable.

Furthermore, together with Fan Lei, just the four of them could take down this group of the Demon Race.

Not to mention, there were also the likes of Three-Eyed Tiger Yan Yi, Jin Pi, Zhengxu, and over twenty other Supreme level figures.

In terms of power comparison, the Celestial Pill Department, with only a few dozen people, had an absolute advantage.

However, adhering to the principle of less trouble is better, Tian Lin, Taiheng, and others did not act immediately but took the initiative to negotiate.

"What is the meaning of this, gentlemen?"

"We are from the Celestial Pill Department, returning to the Celestial Palace from the Refining Heart Dao, we have no enmity with you, and should not interfere with each other."

"Why do you block our way?"

The leader, that cyan bear, slowly grinned a bloody mouthful with two pairs of tusks emerging.

"Of course, I know you're from the Celestial Pill Department."

"But saying you shouldn't interfere is nonsense."

"Your Celestial Palace and our Land of Dao Extinction, we were never aligned!"

In his massive brown eyes, the ferocious light was undisguised.

"Others may treat you alchemists with courtesy, but I don't care!"

The Demon Race fundamentally doesn't need Pills.

For them, the Emperor Pill Master was meaningless.

"Are you planning to surrender yourselves, or shall we trouble ourselves to act?"

"Letting us act means unavoidable suffering..."

Upon hearing this, the faces of Tian Lin, Taiheng, and others all turned grim.

"Do you really think we are soft persimmons, easily squeezed?"

The Cyan Bear Daoist Venerable sneered: "Yes, I do think so."

Fan Lei Daoist Venerable was furious.

"You blind thing, truly courting death!"

Coming to the Land of Dao Extinction this time, he was already quite frustrated.

Frightened in the Blood Demon Dao, thrashed by a Supreme in Duan Yang Dao, and later, in the Sect, relegated to the sidelines.

In the Refining Heart Dao, merely five hundred combat power was only considered mediocre, barely noticeable.

He could only sit obediently in the stands, waiting for the Celestial Pill Department to emerge.

Because walking alone outside, he could possibly die at the hands of a Fifth or Sixth Grade 'trash'.

Summing up, this exalted Celestial Palace Daoist Venerable was restrained everywhere in the Land of Dao Extinction, forced to lower himself.

Finally, this time, with combat power unrestricted and the power comparison overwhelmingly in his favor.

"Seems this time, departing from here, I have no choice but to slaughter in this Land of Dao Extinction, to demonstrate the might of the Celestial Palace!"

Arrogantly leaving this statement, he summoned his personal Immortal Artifact and Immortal Treasure, charging towards the Cyan Bear.

However, the Cyan Bear did not activate its Origin Realm to battle him.

Instead, its figure flashed, retreating to the rear.

Then, a Mountain Goat Supreme, black all over with four horns sprouting atop, attacked.

"Your opponent is me!"

As it faced Fan Lei's Law Space, the four horns on its head simultaneously shot out four sources!

"Hmph!"

Fan Lei Daoist Venerable felt extremely insulted.

As the chief of the Divine Thunder Bureau and Second-grade Immortal Official, Fan Lei's true power was top-tier among Daoist Venerables.

Even against two or three ordinary Daoist Venerables, he could ensure to resist.

The opponent actually sent a Supreme to face him.

This was completely belittling him, showing extreme disrespect.

"A bunch of ignorant demon beasts!"

"Die!"

As his words echoed, the four sources on the opposite side collided with his Law Space.

Under normal circumstances, a Supreme's source would definitely be crushed.

The strength of a Supreme's source is inferior to a Daoist Venerable, and this primitive and simple attack could never withstand the Law Space.

Yet this time, something unexpected happened.

Bang! Bang!

After two loud booms, Fan Lei's expression changed drastically.

Before he could use the Law Space to enhance his Immortal Sword Technique, the Law Space had already started to violently tremble, several cracks appearing.

The first two sources vanished in the intense clash with the Dharma Realm, but the other two sources succeeded in penetrating into his Dharma Realm.

"Impossible!" Fan Lei exclaimed.

"Why impossible?"

With a sneer, the Mountain Goat Supreme's remaining two sources advanced unimpeded.

The Law Space formed by Fan Lei's combination of five strands of Daoist Venerable level sources and two strands of Supreme level sources couldn't block these two sources' attack.

The moment the Dharma Realm shattered, he himself was heavily counterattacked.

A source slammed hard onto his body.

Fortunately, he wore Seventh-grade Dao Armor, and his Immortal Power and Immortal Body's inherent defensive capability were strong, preventing immediate death.

Still, even so, he found himself spewing blood, flying backwards.

Jin Pi and Zhengxu and others hurried forward to catch him.

Tian Lin, Taiheng, and Beihe, the three Daoist Venerables, simultaneously brandished weapons unused for hundreds of billions of years, anxiously guarding against the surrounding demons.

They were filled with intense disbelief.

After all, Fan Lei was a Daoist Venerable!

In the recent combat, he wasn't restricted in any way, fully exhibiting Daoist Venerable strength.

Yet inexplicably, was easily defeated by a single Supreme.

This was too bizarre.

"How can this be?"

Fan Lei Daoist Venerable, injured, was filled with doubts about life.

This wasn't just physical, even his spirit faced a heavy blow.

Consecutive setbacks in the Land of Dao Extinction, his confidence was severely hit.

Hoping to finally hold his head high this time.

Ending up facing defeat from a Supreme, causing him to begin doubting himself.

Meanwhile, the Three-Eyed Tiger beside, adding insult to injury.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Fan Lei bro, is your Daoist Venerable rank fake?"

"Seems like you get beaten everywhere, unable to beat anyone?"

His relationship with Fan Lei wasn't good from the start.

Taunting relentlessly, completely ignoring that they were currently on the same side.

"Only a little Supreme was sent against you, and you lost?"

"Be honest, are you wrapped in a Daoist Venerable's skin but actually a Celestial Venerable?"

"Shut your idiot mouth!"

Fan Lei, infuriated, almost spat out more blood.

"The opponent is peculiar!"

Amidst the crowd, Yan Yi interrupted their squabbling.

"That goat seemed to have received a special enhancement!"
