This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered-Chapter 910 - 696: A Seal Even Its Creator Can’t Unlock

"This is tough..."

Liang Yi gazed at the scene unfolding on the ground and couldn't help but let out a bitter smile, equally perceiving the predicament.

His divine sense spread out and discovered that aside from this battlefield, the Mystical Mechanism cultivators clearing the rear battlefield had also fallen into crisis, already surrounded by Abyss cultivators revived through occupying countless Lost Souls' corpses.

In less than the time it takes a stick of incense to burn, the battle losses among the Mystical Mechanism cultivators became severe, almost matching the losses incurred since they stepped onto the Abyss Continent.

Even though the Abyss cultivators had revived only about seventy percent of the fallen cultivators, and even though their strength had weakened considerably, the sheer disparity in numbers was just too vast; employing human wave tactics had firmly suppressed the Mystical Mechanism army.

Perhaps the human wave tactics of low-level cultivators wouldn't harm Mystical Mechanism cultivators who understood domains at the Eighth Realm or Ninth Realm, but now Zuo Yongning targeted only those cultivators whose realms weren't high, yet comprised almost seventy percent of the Mystical Mechanism army.

"Kill, the more you kill, the weaker Mystical Mechanism becomes, and the stronger the Abyss grows..."

High in the sky, Gongsun Bai'an and Qiu Feng exchanged glances with Chen Hua over the distance, looking down at the ground's battle situation before alighting on the current state of the Abyss Continent, feeling quite exuberant!

Cultivators draw on spiritual energy from the heavens and earth to cultivate; after death, their pure spiritual power returns to the universe, which is why the Mystical Mechanism Continent can endure endlessly, and why the Heavenly Dao hardly bothers cultivators.

But now, since the place of death for the Mystical Mechanism cultivators is the Abyss Continent, the spiritual energy they dissipate naturally gets absorbed by the Abyss Continent, nourishing the entire Abyss World every time a cultivator perishes!

This method works only when killing Mystical Mechanism cultivators on the Abyss Continent and has no reverse effect.

This is because Abyss Demon Qi is born from the corruption of spiritual power; spiritual power can convert into Abyss Demon Qi, and the presence of Abyss Demon Qi will only pollute spiritual power!

No matter the total amount of spiritual power or the number of cultivators, these are fundamental to any large world; losing a portion poses little effect, but if every Mystical Mechanism cultivator here is killed, undoubtedly Mystical Mechanism Continent would suffer a heavy blow, incapable of contending against the Abyss Will!

This was why they found out Mystical Mechanism planned to counterattack the Abyss Continent; not only did they not stop them, but instead gleefully waited for the opponents to come.

At this moment, the Mystical Mechanism people also realized, continuously directing the surviving Mystical Mechanism cultivators to merge together and defend.

"Chen Hua, how does it feel?"

Gongsun Bai'an smiled towards a sullen-faced Chen Hua across from him; he didn't engage, but his divine sense, together with Qiu Feng's, was tightly fixated on Chen Hua.

One of them alone might fall behind in a one-on-one with Chen Hua, but both combined, plus the Abyss's power, even Chen Hua couldn't do anything against them!

Chen Hua lifted his eyes, coldly staring at the smug Gongsun Bai'an, naturally understanding who devised this sinister tactic.

With the Taoist Collection tightly clasped in his hand and veins standing taut on his hands, Chen Hua was really angry now, wishing to draw his sword to slay them, but knew the angrier he appeared, the happier his opponent would become.

"Held back by two?"

Chen Hua glanced at the fan-wielding, swaying Gongsun Bai'an, then at Qiu Feng resting with closed eyes beside him, feeling a bit helpless.

If Mystical Mechanism were in command, it would be him alone holding back those two.

But now he had fallen passive, the opponents could restrain him using the same methods, preventing him from joining the battle; it's said the Heavenly Dao has its cycles.

"Xia Kun is not in the fray, only Zuo Yongning is maneuvering the Lost Souls within the domain..."

Chen Hua swept a glance over, this news offering some solace; with only Zuo Yongning, Liang Yi, whose strength is no less than his own, should be able to handle it, thereby avoiding the scenario of facing two opponents.

"Hahaha, so don't even think of making a move; just sit back and enjoy the show!"

Gongsun Bai'an's voice spread across the battlefield, causing the battling Mystical Mechanism cultivators' hearts to sink: could even the Banished Immortal not intervene?

"Senior Brother, what do we do? The Abyss cultivators revived through Lost Souls have two lives, and there are just too many cultivators possessed by Lost Souls, absolutely impossible to kill them all."

A sword light appeared by Liang Yi's side; Su Youyi looked troubled, somewhat at a loss.

Just now, finding no one entangled, Su Youyi seized the chance to personally slay the revived Lost Souls with her sword, but despite cutting down lost souls across thousands of miles, more appeared the following second, killing them was impossible.

Liang Yi remained silent, his mind racing, seeking a way to break the impasse.

The Mystical Mechanism could not endure such attrition, with losses mounting steadily; once they reached a certain level, the war's defeat was declared without a final battle.

"Isn't Bodhi, the most fitted to counter these creatures, unable to act, and Master Hui Zhi's relic reincarnated too, was this all in the opponent's calculation?" Liang Yi glanced over at the Zen faction with resentment, realizing they had calculated up to this point when confronting Bodhi and Hui Zhi.

Among super forces, Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool currently suffered minor losses; those Lost Souls found it difficult against the sharp Sword Intent of the Sword Cultivators. The madmen of Blood Control Sect were slaying wildly, led by the little witch Liu Rouxin. Numerous Ten Thousand Miles Mountain beasts actively cooperated with Mystical Mechanism cultivators, using their agility or extraordinary defense to gradually contract their forces. Senluo Wanxiang Sect and Complete Heaven Sect, setting past feuds aside in these dire times, collaborated to divine how to find a thread of vitality in this deadlock.
