《Death… And Me》Death... And Me

Rean and Roan were right. The Zasfin's Saint Realm expert, Jare, was surprised to see how the twins passed by the defense line without anyone noticing. However, he saw how they were being pursued by the Zasfins that lost them at first, which meant that they could see the twins. Of course, it didn't take long for the Nascent Soul Realm Zasfins to receive the order to retreat since they were being lured way too far from the formations. It might be a trick by the demon beasts, so they had to go back to protect the others.
Rean and Roan didn't mind either case, though. After all, they were much faster, so they would still leave them behind easily even if they kept following. Jare, of course, still had the twins within the scope of his Spiritual Sense. Nevertheless, that wasn't the only front where battles were ongoing. He had to give orders to the rest as well.
Gia, the Stage Seven Tarantula, couldn't help but faintly smile after seeing what Rean and the others had done as she thought, 'Not bad. The battle has just started, but they already blew up one of the formations.' She then looked in another direction and nodded, continuing to inwardly think, 'It seems those ones won't take too long either.'
Gia was looking at Luti's group. From the looks of it, he and his two demon beast companions were quite used to fighting together. Luti gave the tactical orders while the two demon beasts brought in the raw power. Out of nowhere, a gap was opened in the Zasfins' defense before a fire projectile covered in Fire Element and Spiritual Energy pierced through the formation protecting the Core. Following that, the projectile hit the Formation Core like a hot knife on butter.
*Boom, boom, boom, boom...*
Sure enough, the same thing happened. Soon, the entire formation began to blow up due to the chaotic Spiritual Energy. Seeing that, the Zasfins defending that formation went furious and increased the tempo of their attacks. Luti's group seemed to be waiting for that, though. They immediately turned around to flee, showing that they had no intention to continue the fight now that the formation was gone. However, just as the Zasfins were about to block them, Luti's group suddenly turned around and attacked the closest Zasfin together.
*Bang!*
*Arrrgh!*
That Zasfin, who wanted to stop them, wasn't able to defend itself against three attacks of the same level. His dantian was pierced through as he plummeted from the skies. And just like that, the first loss of a combatant at the Nascent Soul Realm and above appeared on the battlefield.

"Hahaha! There are only two of them remaining. Kill!" Luti and the two demon beasts laughed out loud and immediately began their counter-attack. With a disadvantage in numbers, the two Zasfins gave up on the battle and tried to flee instead. However, Luti's group didn't focus on both Zasfins, only on the weakest one.
That Zasfin was rushing at them just a moment ago, so he had to first stop his momentum before trying to fly in the opposite direction. Naturally, Luti's group didn't need to put much effort into catching this guy since they were at full speed already. The companion of that Zasfin tried to give his friend support. Unfortunately, he was impeded by Luti himself. Luti was the weakest in his group, but he could definitely hold that guy in place while the two demon beasts finished off the other enemy. In the end, the last Zasfin gave up and fled straight away. With that done, Luti joined his companions and ended the cornered Zasfin's life.
Without Rean's group knowing, that battle helped them take Jare's attention from their backs. After all, they destroyed a formation but didn't kill anyone. In Luti's case, they killed two Nascent Soul Realm Zasfins and also destroyed a formation, so their level of danger was gauged to be a lot higher in Jare's mind.
Of course, other battles continued as well. However, one thing began to become very clear. The Zasfins had the advantage in numbers, but they were all being cornered. In the end, that's what happens when one spends thousands of years without a proper opponent. Compared to the demon beasts who fought each other on a daily basis, the Zasfins were just too inexperienced in battle.
Rean, Roan, and Kentucky eventually arrived at the next formation. Unlike the last one, this formation's guards only had three Zasfins, two at the Late Stage and one at the Middle. This time, the twins and the Minokawa didn't even try to hide. Instead, they headed straight for the Nascent Soul Zasfins.
"Kill!" Both sides didn't hold back. The Zasfins heard from Jare that Rean's group had already destroyed a formation, so they took them seriously from the very start. Their Rank Four Soul Marks shone on their foreheads as they launched their assault.
Kentucky, Rean, and Roan soon separated and attacked one Zasfin each. Kentucky took the Middle Stage guy on while the twins went for the two Late Stage ones. The hair color of the twins quickly changed into a mix of black and white as they began to exchange elements. Kentucky's body also burst into black and white flames as he shot like an arrow against the Zasfin in front of him.

'Life Style, First Form, Enhancement!'
'Death Style, Second Movement Form, Shadow Air!'
'Death World!'
'Death Style, Fifth Form, Mirage Assault!'
'Death Style, Third Form, Three Claws of the Dragon!'
'Life Fire, Flame Emperor Slash!'
'Divine Bird Strike!'
Rean, Roan, and Kentucky could literally fight Initial Stage Soul Transformation Zasfins with their full power. If Rean and Roan fought together, they could even contend against a Soul Transformation Zasfin at the Middle Stage. Naturally, two Late Stage Nascent Soul Zasfins didn't stand a chance when the twins' group was going all out from the start.
*Swish! Swish! Swish!*
*Boom!*
*Shhhhhhh!*
*Argggghhhh!*
The Zasfins saw how Rean, Roan, and Kentucky's attack were heading straight at them. Naturally, they also fought back with their own attacks. However, they soon regretted trying to clash against those three. They watched as their own abilities were destroyed in the head-on clash. They simply didn't stand a chance against the raw power of the twins and the Minokawa. They tried to hastily defend themselves as fast as they could, but alas, it was too late.
The weapon Roan's opponent had, which was at the Earth Peak-level, was cut through without any resistance. Even a Heaven Initial-level Equipment wouldn't resist Rean's sword, let alone something like that. Soon after, the guy was cut into three pieces as Roan's Dark Element destroyed all of his life force. Well, the destruction of life force wasn't even necessary since the guy was already dead when Roan cut him.
Kentucky's opponent was far more miserable than Roan's. His attack was destroyed by Kentucky's flaming body before both his weapon and body were pulverized at the moment Kentucky smashed against him. The difference in attack power here was even higher since the opponent was only in the Middle Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.
Last but not least, there was Rean's opponent. His Life Fire Skill, which was a fusion of his Light and Fire Element together with his unparalleled Yang Energy control, was met with even less resistance. Rean didn't see a need to be merciful with the Zasfins since they definitely wouldn't be with humans. The guy's body was cut in half as it began to burn with intense white flames. He wasn't pulverized like how Kentucky's opponent was, but the pain wasn't definitely far off.
"What?!" Jare, who was already in a very bad mood after seeing the Zasfins losing ground everywhere, was shocked by that sight. After all, Kentucky and the twins were still in the Initial Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. Even with that, they destroyed their opponents on a head-on clash. How could he not be shocked?
However, it was then that he remembered something. 'Wait a second...a Demon Bird and two humans. Aren't those the targets Ancestor Fikin and our entire Soul Rulers were looking for?'
In an instant, he reached a conclusion as he thought, 'So, it was really the demon beasts who took the World Swallowing Cedar away. Not only that, but they were even bold enough to send these humans and the Demon Bird to the frontlines, just to show in front of our faces that they have the Demon Tree. I need to report this.'
He then put aside his thoughts about the battle in front of himself before taking out a Thoughts Transmission Talisman. This one was of very high quality, able to send a message to very long distances. It was quite expensive, so even the Soul Rulers refrained from using such a thing constantly. He then put the talisman on his forehead as he gathered information regarding what he saw inside the talisman. Eventually, the talisman began to burn before completely disappearing. Only after that was done did he start to command the battles again.
Gia, of course, saw that as well. 'Impressive! Phex, I know that the Minokawa is a Divine Demon Beast, so its power isn't a surprise. However, those humans far surpass common sense,' she thought after witnessing everything. 'It seems like calling the humans to join this war was really a good decision.'
*Boom!*
On the twins' side, Kentucky just destroyed another Formation Core, which sent the entire formation into the skies. However, that wasn't the only one. Just a few seconds later, the twins heard two more explosions of the same magnitude coming from other areas. 'It seems like we can't relax, or the other groups will catch up to us.'
Rean then looked at Roan as they headed to another formation, asking him, 'Do you think the Zasfins have already noticed our real identities?'
Roan nodded as he replied, 'If they didn't, they would be real idiots. But that's fine. Even if they do, they'll think that Celis is in the hands of the Demon Beast Alliance, especially since we're fighting on their side. Only an idiot would think that we still have Celis.'
Rean and Kentucky nodded in agreement with Roan's words before they arrived at another formation.
