Ahead of the Dragon Defense Pass was a steep slope, reaching a height of two hundred meters. The terrain was treacherous, perpetually covered in ice and snow, making it extremely difficult to attack from below. The pass above was constructed like a fortress battlement. However, after a year and a half of holy war, the Dragon Defense Pass’s defensive weaponry was either destroyed by the demons or lacked sufficient magic crystals to operate, relying entirely on manpower to resist the demonic onslaught.

In the distance, the eight Demon God Pillars still shone brilliantly, emitting dazzling rays that pierced the sky. The demonic army was surging toward the Dragon Defense Pass like a tidal wave.

The Demon God Emperor’s decision to have the Undead Demon God Samigina lead the attack on the Dragon Defense Pass was logical. Attacking from the ground was simply too difficult, leaving aerial assault as the more promising option. The demon race was not only adept at flying and individually powerful, but, more importantly, their numbers were vast. Purely in terms of population, only the Demon God Emperor’s Heavenly Demon Dragon Clan could compare to the demon race. After all, the Star Demon Clan and Moon Demon Clan couldn’t hold a candle to the demon race’s numbers.

Consequently, after more than a year of accumulated experience in attack and defense, current battles largely involve the Temple Alliance defending against the demons’ combined air and ground offensive.

The ground attacks were primarily launched by the wolf demon and bear demon races. This wasn’t necessarily because they were the most skilled at climbing and assaulting, but because of their cold-resistant nature.

In this frigid, harsh northern region, the demon race suffered severe non-combat attrition in the early stages of the holy war. After constant adjustments and redeployments, only the demon race’s cold-resistant breeds remained stationed outside the Dragon Defense Pass.

The wolf demon race was also a powerful combat race within the demon ranks. They stood upright like humans, but possessed wolf heads and sharp claws on all four limbs. As they climbed, their claws scratched against the ice, emitting a constant “crack, crack” sound.

Compared to the wolf demons, the bear demons had a much harder time climbing. Their weight was immense, and although they were incredibly strong, they could only ascend slowly by first smashing out weight-bearing ice holes with their paws.

However, it was important not to forget that the Bear Demon God Valefor was one of the eight great Demon Gods outside the Dragon Defense Pass. Therefore, the main force of the bear demon race was also here. With Valefor supervising from behind, how could the bear demon warriors dare to slack off? They relied on their immense strength to continue their slow but steady climb.

As for the sky, it was the demon race’s stage. A sky darkened by countless demons constantly assaulted the Dragon Defense Pass.

Only demons above the sixth rank could fly, but they could also carry weight. It was common to see demons being hurled toward the Dragon Defense Pass by flying demons.

The demon race, the bear demon race, and the wolf demon race – the demon race’s three major combat breeds – launched an all-out attack that posed a significant threat to the Dragon Defense Pass’s defenses.

However, the Knight Temple, as the leader of the six great temples, possessed an extremely rich foundation. Across the battlement, knights in full armor stood in horizontal formation, their dazzling golden light constantly flickering, like a solid barrier, resisting wave after wave of demonic attacks.

Among the six great professions of the human Six Great Temples, the most balanced was the Knight. Knights could use certain light magic while also excelling in close combat. More importantly, they could also cast healing magic. Therefore, even without the cooperation of other forces, knights could maximize their self-protection and inflict damage on enemies in solo combat.

At the same time, the Knight Temple also possessed the Alliance’s strongest air force: their Sky Knight Legion.

Based on their mounts, knights could choose to become Sky Knights or Earth Knights after reaching the fifth rank. In other words, the Sky Knight Legion was entirely composed of knights above the fifth rank. With a total of over ten thousand, they were a powerful force, the mainstay of the Knight Temple.

However, due to the constant attrition of the holy war, the number of Sky Knights was constantly decreasing, and the injured were countless. Now, there were fewer than seven thousand Sky Knights still able to fly and participate in battle. This was with the aid of the most healing and augmentation from light magic. Moreover, they only entered the battle after the Dragon Defense Pass’s high-powered, offensive defensive weaponry was rendered unusable, thus becoming the main force on the battlefield.

If viewed from a higher altitude, it could be clearly seen that the two sides were in the air, distinctly divided by their golden and black colors.

In terms of numbers, the demon race had the upper hand. Their numbers were at least twice that of the Sky Knight Legion. The most troublesome thing was that some demons were carrying hell demons on their backs. The hell demons’ magic was extremely powerful, and they specialized in group magic. Therefore, the demonic air force was not in a hurry to engage the Sky Knight Legion in close combat, but rather held their ground and threw smaller demons and greater demons toward the Dragon Defense Pass. The flying demons then protected the hell demons, allowing them to cast magic from a distance.

The Sky Knight Legion did not advance rashly either. The hell demons were not the only demons who could fly. For them, the more important task was to guard the Dragon Defense Pass and not take risks.

The Sky Knights’ mounts were very uniform: all of them were Sky Horses, bred uniformly by the Knight Temple. Sky Horses were a type of fifth-level magical beast, a subspecies of the unicorn. They were entirely white and possessed a pair of snow-white wings on their sides, allowing them to soar through the sky.

The uniform mounts allowed the Sky Knight Legion to be more coordinated in deployment, and their combat strength was the combination of the knight and the Sky Horse. Therefore, in battles of the same rank, the demon race would definitely lose to the Sky Knights.

At the forefront of the Sky Knight Legion was a group of golden and silver knights. At least six Adamantine Foundation Knights and one hundred Mithril Foundation Knights commanded the Sky Knight Legion.

The war between the two sides seemed to have a tacit understanding; no ninth-level powerhouses appeared on the battlefield. All participating forces on the battlefield were below the ninth level.

A huge Holy Light Spiritual Array was erected in the air, resisting the hell demons’ magical bombardment time and time again. The Sky Knight Legion always maintained a neat formation, ready for battle at any time. The Holy Light Spiritual Array they collectively released could be described as impenetrable.
Long Tianyin stood at the highest point of the Yulong Pass city wall. The wall had three layers. The bottom layer was the widest, where the knight armies fought against the demons. The second layer was occupied by mages, all of whom were ice mages. Apart from these mages, Yulong Pass received no support from any other temples. This was the Knights’ Temple’s noble sacrifice, allowing the other five temples to support each other more. The third layer was the command platform, where Long Tianyin stood.

Behind Long Tianyin stood over thirty people. Half of them wore Adamantine Foundation Armor, and the rest were clad in armor of at least Legendary rank. Without a doubt, they were the core strength of the Knights’ Temple. Each was fully equipped, ready to join the battle at any moment.

“Order the Sky Knight Legion to descend one hundred meters and release the Halo of Glory and the Halo of Thorns,” Long Tianyin’s dignified voice echoed.

His eyes were fixed on the wolf demons and bear demons climbing the wall below. Undoubtedly, when the first wave of bear demon elites reached the top of Yulong Pass, the aerial demons would attack.

The demons knew humans were aware of their attack pattern but never changed it; the combined air and ground assault was always most effective.

At that moment, the eight shining demon god pillars in the distance suddenly flared with light. Faintly, eight demons could be seen emerging from the pillars.

In the largest pillar at the front, a man with short gray hair, gray armor, a slender build, and a pale face was gazing towards Long Tianyin.

This demon exuded an aura of deathly stillness. His pupils were an eerie white, yet his face was quite handsome. A pair of enormous gray wings spread from his back, spanning over twenty meters. Although that wasn’t much in the air, the intense gray light from the demon god pillar behind him created a sense of oppressive power, as if he could blot out the sky.

Long Tianyin’s eyes instantly lit up, with intense golden light flashing within. He clasped his hands behind his back, his body slowly levitating into the air.

A blue-golden light erupted from behind him, forming a huge blue-golden pillar of light that shot into the sky. The magnificent Throne of Seal of Order and Law slowly emerged in the bright light, becoming the backdrop for Long Tianyin, the Divine Knight of Order and Law.

The moment the Throne of Seal of Order and Law appeared, an earth-shattering cheer erupted from both the Yulong Pass city wall and the Sky Knight Legion in the sky.

For the Knights’ Temple, the Throne of Seal represented more than just a divine artifact; it was the spiritual pillar for all knights. As long as the Throne of Seal was there, they had the confidence to fight to the death against any powerful enemy.

The Undead Demon God Samigina frowned slightly and muttered to himself, “This Throne of Seal is really troublesome.”

Not far from him, a burly man with bronze skin and amber eyes said in a deep voice, “Shall I go?” This was Valefar, the Bear Demon God ranked sixth among the seventy-two demon god pillars. If judged by appearance alone, he looked more like a strong human warrior. His physique was not at all comparable to his tall, muscular brethren.

Samigina shook his head and said, “Long Tianyin is not easy to deal with. In a one-on-one fight, I would have been confident in killing him, but his Throne of Seal is too annoying. Your result won’t be any better than mine. Moreover, in the Knights’ Temple, there is also the Throne of Seal of Protection and Compassion, which is even more difficult to deal with. It’s not an exaggeration to call him the strongest human. Since His Majesty has ordered us to engage in a war of attrition, there’s no need for a desperate fight.”

As he spoke, the intense battle intent on his body subsided a bit. He still confronted Long Tianyin from afar, neither side taking the initiative to attack.

At this moment, the bear demon soldiers slowly climbing upward finally reached the top of Yulong Pass.

The wolf demons launched a near-suicidal, frantic attack. Their goal was simple: to allow all the bear demons to safely reach the city wall. With the bear demons’ powerful defense and strength, as long as they could gain a foothold on the wall, they would surely inflict a heavy blow on the Knights’ Temple.

The holy light array of the Sky Knight Legion, which had descended one hundred meters, suddenly intensified. Purple-golden Haloes of Thorns and blue-golden Haloes of Glory, released by a large number of Sky Knights, made the light in the sky incredibly magnificent. At the same time, these haloes also shone on the knights on the city wall.

Han Yu was on the city wall, holding a golden heavy shield in his left hand and his Red Blood Rampage in his right.

He charged forward, the shield leading the way, and slammed hard into a bear demon that had just climbed onto the wall.

The bear demon was also powerful, bracing its arms in front of its body for the direct impact with Han Yu.

In a deafening crash, the bear demon was knocked backward against the battlements, and Han Yu’s body was also forced back several steps by the powerful collision. However, the Red Blood Rampage in his right hand had already swung out.

The Red Blood Rampage was completely white-hot, a holy sword.

The Legendary heavy sword combined with the Holy Sword skill was not easily resisted even by the bear demon’s powerful physique. Moreover, although there was a huge difference in size between the two, Han Yu’s external spiritual power was not much weaker than the bear demon’s.

Immersed in the Dragon Crystal of the Reverse Heavenly Dragon Clan and enhanced by the Senrattan Body Tempering Pill, Han Yu’s external spiritual power cultivation was no less than his internal spiritual power. This was a key reason why the Demon Hunt Squad No. 64, led by a Commander, had survived bloody battles on the battlefield.

The bear demon roared in anger. It had just reached the city wall and been knocked back, so it was naturally very irritable. It swung its huge iron hammer, heading straight for the Red Blood Rampage.

At that moment, a figure suddenly fell between them. It was a knight who had been knocked off balance by the enemy’s powerful shockwave.

The bear demon’s giant hammer continued to fall without hesitation, but Han Yu was greatly surprised.
He moved faster than the Bear Demon. If his attack continued, then Blood Frenzy’s release would surely strike his comrade first. Brotherly love ran deep, how could he bring himself to do it?

It all happened so suddenly; Blood Frenzy was already halfway released! If he stopped, he would suffer a backlash, and that comrade would likely be crushed to death by the Bear Demon’s giant hammer. But if he continued the attack, that comrade would die by his own hand! Since joining the battle, this was the first time Han Yu had encountered such a difficult choice. And it all happened so quickly, the time he had to decide was too short.

Brilliant golden light shone at that moment. The knight who had stumbled back vanished as suddenly as he had appeared, with a “whoosh.”

At that same moment, thousands of golden rays burst forth, engulfing almost a hundred meters in all directions. Within that range, whether Wolf Demons or Bear Demons, all became sieves of blood under the golden light, falling like cut wheat.

Han Yu’s eyes instantly filled with tears, and he roared almost hoarsely, “Commander!” —

He’s back!!! When will the sixty-four commanders be reunited?
