Chapter 452 A Battle of Wits

The echoing sound contained extremely powerful demonic energy, causing the entire earth to shake continuously.

The human experts in the Dharma Aspect Realm in the sky had already exhausted themselves by breaking the Ten Thousand Demon Formation. How could they possibly withstand the powerful demonic energy of this Demon Saint? Immediately, their faces turned pale, their bodies swayed, and they were about to fall from the sky.

Just then, dozens of golden lights soared into the sky, protecting the human race's Dharma Aspect Realm experts and resisting the incomparably powerful demonic force—it was the intervention of many human saints.

"Leave the rest to us," said Yuan Tiangang, the chief strategist of the human race, calmly. "You all find a place to recuperate, and you don't need to worry about the rest."

Next, they would face the strongest among the demon race, the Ten Great Sages of the Demon Race. In a battle of this level, these Dharma Aspect Realm cultivators would only be throwing their lives away. Only the human race's Sages possessed the ability to contend with the Ten Great Sages of the Demon Race.

"Yes, Senior Sage." Zilu, one of the Seventy-Two Sages of Confucianism, responded and led the experts at the Dharma Aspect Realm to recuperate.

Then, the Sage Yuan Tiangang addressed the assembled sages, saying, "Gentlemen, success or failure hinges on this one battle. Eradicate the demon race and restore a bright and clear world for our human race and all its people—it all begins today!"

With that, Yuan Tiangang took the lead, his figure transforming into a streak of light as he flew towards the Demon Palace.

The other human saints were not to be outdone, and followed closely behind Yuan Tiangang, flying towards the Demon Palace.

Lin Fei was naturally among them. He was arguably the most nervous and excited of all these sages.

The Bull Demon Saint who spoke earlier was the opponent that Yuan Tiangang had assigned to Lin Fei in the previous mission.

This was the first time Lin Fei had ever faced such a powerful opponent. Even though Lin Fei was very confident in his abilities, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous. It should be noted that even the weakest of the Ten Great Demon Saints possessed strength surpassing that of an ordinary Celestial Being. Lin Fei had never faced an opponent of this caliber before.

……

The saints flew towards the demon palace, and when they were halfway there, they saw three enormous demons blocking their way.

The aura emanating from these three demons was terrifying, far surpassing that of the ordinary demons from before.

If the saints ignore these three demons and continue flying towards the demon palace, they will likely face a fierce and devastating attack, resulting in heavy casualties.

With no other option, the saints descended from the sky and landed on the ground to deal with these three powerful demons first.

The three demons blocking the way were all enormous, making the human saints appear as tiny as infants in comparison.

One of them had two horns on its head, another had arms that reached past its knees, and the third was covered in black scales that looked shiny.

Yuan Tiangang, the chief strategist of the human race, squinted at the three powerful demon race members in front of him and said in a deep voice, "The Savage Bull Demon Saint, the Mountain Moving Demon Saint, and the Black Dragon Demon Saint!"

These three demons are three of the Ten Great Saints of the Demon Clan, far superior to the lowly demon minions of the past.

……

"I didn't expect that not all humans are ignorant fools!" Hearing Yuan Tiangang's words, the long-armed demon saint chuckled, "Since you know the names of us three saints, you should know our abilities. With us guarding this place today, none of you damned humans will make it to the Demon Palace alive!"

That long-armed demon saint, reaching past his knees, is the Mountain-Moving Demon Saint, who was transformed from a long-armed ape. Legend has it that he has the bloodline of the ancient demon saint, the Tongbi Ape, one of the four great divine monkeys. His arms are incredibly strong, capable of moving mountains and filling seas.

The demon saint covered in black scales was the Black Dragon Demon Saint. He was a true descendant of the ancient dragon race, with sturdy scales that made him impervious to blades, spears, water, and fire.

The last one, the Savage Bull Demon Saint, is also Lin Fei's opponent this time. Legend has it that he is a descendant of a green bull that guarded Kunlun Mountain in ancient times. Not only is he incredibly strong, but he also has the ability to swallow mountains whole with his breath.

These three demon saints, while perhaps not the strongest among the ten demon saints, possess unparalleled physical strength. They might not have a significant advantage in demon battles, but against humans, whose physical bodies are relatively weaker, their strength would be magnified infinitely.

Therefore, these three are all extremely difficult to deal with among the Ten Great Saints of the Demon Race. The human saints had also discussed the matter at length before deciding on these three as their opponents.

To deal with these three, if we can't overpower them with sheer strength, even if two or three saints went up at the same time, we might not be able to gain the upper hand. This is because their physical bodies are extremely powerful and they are not afraid of being surrounded by multiple people; they can even withstand attacks directly with their bare hands.

Therefore, in dealing with these three, numbers are not a significant advantage. In the previously devised plan, the Mountain-Moving Demon Saint was to be dealt with by the Confucian Sage, while the Black Dragon Demon Saint was to be dealt with by the Military Sage.

As for the Savage Bull Demon Saint, Yuan Tiangang originally wanted to go himself, but in the end he gave the opportunity to Lin Fei.

These three demon saints are the three with the strongest physical bodies among the demon race. Each of them could be dealt with individually by one of the strongest human saints. Unexpectedly, these three appeared together.

"Sending out these three guys at the same time, it seems they want to give us a warning and make us back down!" Yuan Tiangang said thoughtfully, stroking his chin.

These three demon saints may not be the strongest among the ten demon saints. However, when facing humans, they are the three who have the greatest advantage and can even unleash power beyond their own strength.

The fact that the demon race sent out the three most powerful demon saints in their physical bodies at the same time was probably intended to let the human saints know their strength, or even make them back down.

However, they underestimated the human saints. Although these three demon saints were powerful, the human saints were not afraid of them at all and had already prepared a way to deal with them.

"Sage of War, Sage of Confucianism, Brother Li," Yuan Tiangang said to the three men responsible for dealing with these three demon saints, "According to the previous plan, these three demon saints are now yours to handle!"

Perhaps a swarm attack would be a better solution, but the demon race has only produced three demon saints so far, and the human race naturally needs to preserve its strength.

According to the previously planned strategy, the people in charge of dealing with these three demon saints were the Confucian Sage, the Military Sage, and Lin Fei, who replaced Yuan Tiangang in the battle.
