Emerging from the depths of the Oceanic Tempest Storm Devil Clan, this immense horde of demons materialized through the intricate summoning formations concealed within their camp.

Even Wang Jian had failed to detect these mysterious summoning formations, rendering him unaware of their existence.

The sudden arrival of this demonic force did not go unnoticed by Wang Ying and Wang Hao's factions. Sensing the imminent threat, they swiftly marshalled their own forces and hastened toward the seal, where the new wave of demons was converging.

The opalescent hue of their skin, akin to Tristan and Brian's, revealed a shared lineage with the Oceanic Tempest Storm Devil Clan.

The realization etched grave expressions on the faces of the humans, for they understood that a treacherous battle awaited them.

The demons' bloodline affiliation suggested the potential danger they possessed, raising the question of whether they could rival the power and menace of Tristan, Brian, and the other clan members they previously encountered in the forest.

However, the humans had inadvertently overestimated the might of this entire demon clan, failing to acknowledge that not every member carried the same level of power and peril as Tristan, Brian, and their dispatched brethren.

Among the ranks of the Oceanic Tempest Storm Devil Clan, the group stationed in this region comprised the cream of the crop, representing the pinnacle of strength and talent within their generations.

Leading this formidable force was none other than Celia, a woman whose prowess as a King Realm expert was second only to Tristan himself.

If Tristan stood as the pinnacle of strength and talent among the Demon Kings within the clan, Celia was a close second, known for her own formidable abilities.

As the new wave of demonic forces approached the seal, a sense of urgency everyone.

Lady Zhuoran was the first to react as she shouted, "We just need to hold onto for some time as other human factions are quickly arriving!"

This information prompted Hong Meilin to issue a resolute command to the followers of the church, "Activate the defensive talisman barriers now!"

Moved by the gravity of the situation, the Liu Family within Wang Jian's faction swiftly mobilized, harnessing the might of their most potent defensive barrier talismans. These coveted talismans represented the pinnacle of their defensive capabilities, a trio of precious artifacts in their possession.

With a determined voice, Liu Yu's father rallied his kin, "Everyone, gather around! I shall erect a formidable defensive formation!"

Responding to his call, human experts converged upon the Liu Family's position, intuitively recognizing that their safety hinged on remaining within the protective confines of the impending barrier.

In a flurry of motion, the church's followers and Liu Family members diligently erected the protective barriers, their intricate symbols shimmering with ethereal energy.

The outermost barrier materialized with an ethereal radiance, emanating the pure essence of Holy Qi. Its divine aura permeated the air, serving as an impenetrable shield against the encroaching demonic forces.

This sacred barrier stood resolute, fortified by the power and authority of an Emperor Realm expert, rendering any attempts by the demons to breach it futile.

Nested within the sanctified embrace of the outer barrier, an inner shield of transcendent might took form. It was a masterful fusion of the Laws of Mystic Elements, interwoven with intricate patterns of cosmic energy.

This inner sanctuary pulsed with an otherworldly resonance, its formidable strength matching that of an Emperor Realm expert. Its purpose was clear—to withstand even the most relentless onslaught from the demonic horde.

As the combined forces of the demons assailed the barriers, their attacks were met with staunch resistance.

The outer barrier radiated with an intensified brilliance, repelling each strike with unwavering determination. The inner shield, pulsating with arcane energies, absorbed and dispersed the demonic onslaught, rendering their efforts fruitless.

Amidst the chaos and turmoil, the defenders marveled at the impenetrable fortitude of their barriers. The oppressive weight of impending doom seemed momentarily lifted, replaced by a glimmer of hope.

As the protective barriers shielded them from immediate danger, Lady Zhuoran's voice carried a tinge of disbelief and concern. "Never did I fathom the sheer magnitude of demons that would descend upon us in this battle."

Stella, her tone echoing a shared sense of worry, responded with a mix of curiosity and caution. "Indeed, their sudden appearance within our camp baffles me. It's as if they materialized out of thin air."

Hong Meilin, joining the conversation, interjected with a realization that resonated with the others. "They must have activated a summoning array within the camp. Perhaps we should have eradicated the camp entirely before venturing here."

The words hung heavy in the air, the unspoken regrets lingering momentarily before giving way to resolute determination.

While acknowledging the potential oversight, the women knew dwelling on past missteps served no purpose in the heat of battle.

They were determined to adapt swiftly and devise a plan of action that would turn the tide in their favor.

Hong Meilin turned to Lady Zhuoran with a sense of urgency, her voice laced with concern. "How far are the approaching human groups?"

Lady Zhuoran swiftly replied, her tone filled with determination. "They are racing towards us at their maximum speed. They should arrive within ten minutes."

A frown etched itself on Hong Meilin's face as she muttered, her voice laden with worry. "Our barrier will only hold for five minutes."

Stella's eyes widened in shock as the gravity of their predicament sank in. "So, we're left to fend for ourselves for a whole five minutes?!" The realization hit her hard, understanding the impending peril that awaited them. The horde of demons would decimate their forces within that brief span of time.

Just then, Lady Zhuoran's daughter, Bixi Shuyan, approached the group, her presence adding a glimmer of hope. She shared crucial information, her voice steady and composed. "The Liu Family's defensive barrier is designed to endure for fifteen minutes. However, continuous onslaughts from the demons might weaken its strength. In response, the head of the Liu Family has requested the assistance of King Realm experts with diverse elemental affinities to reinforce the barrier."

Hong Meilin, intrigued by the potential solution, inquired eagerly. "How many King Realm experts do we need to reinforce the barrier?"

Bixi Shuyan answered with unwavering certainty. "Five experts, each proficient in one of the five fundamental elements."

Lady Zhuoran nodded in comprehension, her mind was already forming a plan. "I possess profound insights into the Laws of Water, and Stella possesses great mastery over the Laws of Wind."

Hong Meilin's face lit up with excitement as she shared a revelation. "Excellent! The two bishops of the church possess the Flame and Earth Elements."

The group's attention then turned to Bixi Shuyan, awaiting her response with bated breath. She delivered the news, tinged with a hint of regret. "Unfortunately, we lack an expert who is skilled in the Lightning Element."

Hong Meilin's mind raced, pondering potential solutions. After a moment of contemplation, she suggested an idea brimming with optimism. "I possess an enchanted staff imbued with the strength of the Lightning Element, rivaling that of a King Realm expert. We can harness its power!"

Energized by this newfound hope, they swiftly assumed their positions, forming a pentagon formation, ready to act the moment the church's barrier faltered.

Their plan was to infuse their essence into the Liu Family's barrier, fortifying it against the impending onslaught.

Time was of the essence, and they were prepared to give it their all in this critical moment.

Amidst the turmoil, Celia engaged in a conversation with Tristan, her tone laced with coldness and impatience. The unfolding situation was far from their initial plan, leaving her perplexed and dissatisfied.

"What on earth is happening, Tristan? How did you end up in such a dire state? And where are the other members of our clan?" Her words dripped with icy disdain.

Tristan's voice matched her coldness, his tone laced with a resolute edge.

"Our clan members must have already perished. I dispatched them to face the humans, but they were defeated."

Celia's concern shifted to a specific member of their clan.

"What about Aiden? Where is he?" Aiden, like Celia and Tristan, was renowned for his formidable prowess and possessed the pure bloodline of the Oceanic Tempest Storm Devil Clan.

Tristan's response carried a hint of uncertainty.

"I stationed his group near the cave where we discovered the Ebon Void Essence Ore. However, he hasn't made contact with me for quite some time."

Celia's gaze fixated on the barrier separating them from their adversaries. A gleam of determination flickered in her eyes.

"Well, regardless, it seems you have successfully baited out the Butterfly Spirit Queen. Once they break free from this barrier, we can slaughter them and coerce the Butterfly Spirit Queen into unlocking the seals."

She turned her attention back to Tristan, a hint of superiority in her voice. "I never expected the day would come when I would rescue you from such a humiliating defeat at the hands of mere humans."

Tristan parted his lips, contemplating a response, but ultimately opted for silence. He intended to caution Celia against underestimating the human adversaries.

One possessed the Royal Warlord Bloodline, while the other emanated a more ominous aura, his profound understanding of the Laws of Flames rendering him even more formidable.

Tristan yearned for Celia to witness firsthand the true danger these humans embodied and to pay the price for her insolent remarks.

The time for retribution would come, and Tristan was determined to ensure that Celia faced the consequences for her arrogance.
