The rhythmic thud of demonic footsteps against the colossal wall intensified, creating a cadence of impending doom. The soldiers and cultivators atop the barrier continued their desperate defense, unleashing a barrage of long-range techniques to keep the demons at bay.
A skilled archer, his eyes focused and determined, notched an arrow imbued with the power of lightning. As he released the arrow, it crackled with electrical energy, streaking across the darkened sky. The arrow found its mark, striking a group of demons attempting to breach the wall. Thunderous roars and spasms of dark energy erupted, temporarily halting the demons' advance.
Beside him, a cultivator with expertise in fire techniques conjured a swirling vortex of flames. With a sweeping motion of his hands, he hurled the searing inferno toward the demons at the gate. The fire danced and engulfed the demonic horde, creating a barrier of intense heat that forced them to retreat momentarily.
