Various Spirit Insects and all kinds of demon-slaying methods made even Yelin, their master, open his eyes to a new world today. With every passing breath, tens or hundreds of thousands of Heavenly Demons were destroyed. In contrast, the Spirit Insects were balanced in both offense and defense, cooperating with seamless coordination. Whenever a Spirit Insect was in danger, nearby companions would immediately rush to its rescue. So far, a few Spirit Insects had sustained minor injuries, but Yelin had yet to see a single casualty.
One had to admit that facing such a boundless horde of Heavenly Demons, the Profound Ice Cicadas—which excelled in sonic attacks and recited Buddhist scriptures that inherently possessed demon-suppressing effects—played the most prominent role. Wherever golden lotus flowers swept past, Heavenly Demons shrieked miserably and retreated in disarray, with at least a fifth of them perishing at their hands.
The remaining Spirit Insects also displayed their mighty divine abilities. Those skilled in ranged spell attacks clearly exhibited higher lethality than those specialized in close combat, yet the melee Spirit Insects effectively disrupted the Heavenly Demons' formations, creating better attacking conditions for the ranged ones.
