My gorgeous wife-Chapter 1733 - 1702: Step Forward

The battle continued.

But as more and more creatures of the Demon Realm appeared, the group of strong fighters found it increasingly difficult to fight.

Almost all of Yue Gouchen’s subordinates had perished, and although the Demon Realm creatures around them seemed to have decreased, their strength grew stronger.

Li Chen’s face was slightly pale because even he didn’t know how much longer he could hold on.

Maybe, at some point, if he really couldn’t hold on, he might escape with Bai Shi.

He didn’t know what choice he would make.

"The numbers are about right. It’s my turn now." Yue Gouchen took a deep breath, looking at the dense swarm of Demon Realm creatures around him.

"Boom!!"

Suddenly, Yue Gouchen stomped the ground fiercely, and an invisible wave swept out from the ground.

"Star Plucking Hand!"

"Rumble!!"

The entire ground suddenly roared violently, and countless low-level demon world creatures swayed unsteadily and fell over.

At the same time, a pair of enormous arms suddenly rose from the ground and crazily slapped at the surroundings.

With the slaps of these terrifying giant arms, countless Demon Realm creatures perished in an instant, but others watching the scene frowned slightly.

Because, although the destructive power of these arms was astonishing, it was still not as great as the ultimate techniques shown by others before.

Moreover, there were quite a few Fifth Ranks lurking around, and without a doubt, these arms might be destroyed by those Fifth Rank beings soon.

However, as if guessing what everyone was thinking, Yue Gouchen suddenly swung the giant arms horizontally.

Then, the second pair, the third pair, the fourth pair!

Finally, a total of eight terrifying giant arms appeared, frantically destroying the surrounding Demon Realm creatures.

And this was not the end.

After a moment of destruction, a total of sixteen giant arms, formed from earth and stone, suddenly surrounded them, forming an encirclement that trapped countless Demon Realm creatures inside.

Looking at the frenziedly howling Demon Realm creatures, a cold expression appeared on Yue Gouchen’s face.

"This is just the beginning."

"Starfall Streaming Light—Descend!"

"Buzz~~"

Whether they were Demon Realm creatures or martial artists fighting against them, at this moment they all noticed that the sky above their heads had suddenly turned fiery red.

As they looked up, they saw a large number of meteors engulfed in flames falling abruptly from the sky.

Countless Demon Realm creatures turned to ash under the falling meteors.

"As the Star Lord, you should indeed have some degree of communication ability with your Star Continent. This technique seems akin to drawing power from the Star Continent itself." Daolan Heavenly King’s voice suddenly rang in Li Chen’s ear: "Although the power is astonishing, it doesn’t consume much of one’s True Yuan. This technique consumes Heart Force."

Upon hearing this, Li Chen instinctively glanced towards Yue Gouchen.

Sure enough, Yue Gouchen’s complexion merely turned slightly pale before returning to normal, as if it had no impact at all.

"Is being a Star Lord really this advantageous?" Li Chen was slightly surprised.

However, having cleared out a significant number of Demon Realm creatures, everyone felt relieved upon seeing the area around them become vastly open.

Yet at that moment, a figure suddenly appeared behind Li Chen.

Almost the instant this figure appeared, Li Chen, who had an acute sensitivity to danger, quickly turned his head, simultaneously enveloping his body in the True Yuan Law.

But at the same time, a massive black shadow came crashing down, and Li Chen was instantly knocked out of the air.

"Great Earth Law—Earth Wave!"

Bai Shi reacted instantly, using the Great Earth Law to liquefy the ground to the point it resembled water, causing Li Chen’s body to fall underground.

In no time, Li Chen emerged from the ground again.

Only now, blood was trickling from the corners of his mouth.

He was injured, and this time, it was quite severe.

Even though he avoided a secondary impact with the ground, the previous attack was still very harsh.

Touching his back, Li Chen could feel that several bones in his back were already broken.

Even though he turned around at the critical moment, the shadow that ambushed him used some special ability, and the heavy blow ultimately landed on his back.

What startled Li Chen even more was his sense that the attack power of that strike was comparable to when he fought the Female Immortal amidst the starry sky.

The Demon Realm creatures had grown even stronger!

Seeing Li Chen ambushed, everyone else was also shocked, but by the time they reacted, the ambusher had completely disappeared.

Indeed, the stronger the combatants, the less likely they are merely sacrificial low-level creatures; this one that attacked was a cunning and fierce Hunter. Knowing that there were several top-tier Super Experts on Li Chen’s side, it successfully ambushed and immediately fled, leaving no trace.

"Boss, are you alright?" Bai Shi rushed to Li Chen’s side, concerned.

"I won’t die." Li Chen shook his head, stuffing a handful of Pills into his mouth: "Only, these guys are getting stronger, and I fear we can’t hold on much longer."

Upon hearing Li Chen’s words, the others felt somber too, and even Daolan Heavenly King sighed helplessly; although he never feared battle, he was somewhat helpless in the face of such an irreversible predicament.

Fighting until now, not only Li Chen and Bai Shi, but Daolan Heavenly King, Yue Gouchen, Monk Wuxuan, and even Zhen Xi had sustained minor injuries.

And most importantly, it seemed that strong beings from the Demon Realm started paying attention to them too, and the creatures dispatched were getting progressively stronger.

Li Chen’s successful ambush was a foreboding sign.

This was less than two days!

"If we really can’t hold on, let’s retreat first. After all, for the greater picture of the entire Star Continent... we can slowly reclaim the lands later." Zhen Xi tentatively suggested.

Everyone fell silent.

In truth, Zhen Xi was the most relaxed among them, as she would be just fine even if the others couldn’t hold on.

But the issue was... she really didn’t want to waste time here against these damn Demon Realm creatures.

"We..." Daolan Heavenly King’s tone was difficult, but just as he uttered two words, several loud shouts came from the outskirts of the Remnant Cloud Forest.

"Don’t be anxious, everyone! Leng Kuang from the Mad Blade Sect has come to assist!"

"Wu Yue from the Luoxing Sect has come to support!"

"Do these little Demon Realm rascals dare to run wild in our Heaven Realm? Loose Cultivator Hai Sheng is here too!"

"Make these Demon Realm whelps scram back to where they came from!"

Hearing these voices, the group exchanged glances, feeling relieved.

Even Yue Gouchen’s heart, which had been suspended for so long, was finally at ease.

Even though some of these experts usually cultivated in hiding or focused on developing their sect’s inheritance and scheming against each other, when faced with a crisis threatening their place of existence, they invariably stood up.
