Chapter 3119: Old Friends Arrive at the Door, Hurry to Meet Them

With the addition of the dark and swirling heavenly demons and the immortals who have pledged allegiance to the Heavenly Palace, what now faces everyone is the most troublesome city the War Alliance has ever encountered since its founding, the most stubborn enemy, and the most difficult battle.

Lingxu City will also face its first war disaster in six hundred years!

To deal with the strong enemy, Lingxu City has been stockpiling supplies, repairing city walls, strengthening fortifications, and training troops for war since several months ago, to the point of being fully armed to the teeth.

According to War Alliance statistics, the number of heavenly demons rushing to aid Lingxu City has already reached seven thousand and is still constantly increasing.

This number far exceeds the immortals and great demons on the War Alliance side.

Obviously, just like He Lingchuan, the Holy Lord of Lingxu regards Lingxu City as the decisive battlefield for the heavenly demons and humanity. The outcome of this battle will determine the fate of the heavenly demons, the fate of the War Alliance, and the fate of all living beings in the world!

As soon as the front lines reached the foot of Lingxu City, the horn for the general attack sounded, and He Lingchuan did not even give the army time to rest.

The Divine Initiation Plan is imminent; now we must seize every moment.

The battle for Lingxu City has just begun, and no one expected that Hu Min would actually lead troops to sneak to the foot of Mount Xushan and launch a surprise attack on the Heavenly Palace!

He even brought along the four True Immortals and the Earth Mother in a luxurious entourage.

Mount Xushan is located in the northeastern suburbs of Lingxu City, outside the range of the city wall defenses.

Although this is where the Heavenly Palace is located, its defensive capabilities and garrison numbers cannot even match a fraction of Lingxu City's, especially since the Commander-in-Chief of the Divine Clouds, Lu Yongyan, and nearly half of the Heavenly Palace's leadership have long been stationed in Lingxu City, so the resistance at Mount Xushan is not strong.

—

Thus, the Holy Lord of Lingxu's earthly palace has actually been captured by the War Alliance!

This unprecedented feat in hundreds of years has shocked every living being in the human world who heard the news, even including the civilians of Lingxu City and the Heavenly Palace's vassal demon states.

The descent of the gods is indeed as terrifying as everyone imagined, with living beings suffering and the populace displaced.

But humanity may not be without the strength to fight!

In this vast and tumultuous war like surging waves, the War Alliance's steady victory is a ray of light shining into everyone's hearts.

Where there is light, there is hope.

Perhaps, perhaps the Divine Initiation Plan for the descent of the Great Heavenly Demon is not as terrifying as everyone imagined?

After capturing Mount Xushan, the War Alliance immediately established it as their main base, non-stop transporting supplies, drawing formations, and repairing defensive works.

Moreover, several key towns, fortresses, and garrison camps in the suburbs of Lingxu City have all been taken over by the War Alliance, reorganized, with defensive facilities added on one side and garrison troops increased on the other.

The front lines and the rear are both busy like fire. Observant people will notice that the Great Emperor of the Nine Abysses spends even more time at Mount Xushan than on the front lines, often inspecting the progress of various projects.

Under this high-pressure situation, everyone is busy to the point of flying, like a top constantly being whipped.

Time, time, what both sides lack most is time!

The Heavenly Palace also has spies lurking near Mount Xushan, reporting the War Alliance's movements here back to the city.

Outsiders are puzzled and seek advice from the Commander-in-Chief of the Divine Clouds.

Now the War Alliance clearly has the offensive advantage, having surrounded Lingxu City so tightly it can barely breathe, so why at this moment suddenly turn to attack Mount Xushan? Why suddenly build defensive works at Mount Xushan?

Lu Yongyan said: "The War Alliance also fears the Holy Lord, wanting to leave a way back for the day of Divine Initiation."

It seems the Great Emperor of the Nine Abysses also clearly understands the Holy Lord's target; once the Holy Lord descends to the mortal realm, the War Alliance's greatest advantage will likely become ineffective.

Therefore, while the War Alliance's army holds the upper hand, we must begin to leave a retreat route, so as not to be caught off guard by a counterattack later.

"Hold on!" Lu Yongyan encouraged all his subordinates, "As long as we persist until the Holy Lord and the various great heavenly gods descend, victory will surely belong to us, and the human world will surely belong to us!"

But just as his words fell, the southern sky suddenly brightened, and a mighty and familiar voice echoed throughout Lingxu City.

"My son Wuhuan, remember: when you hear this last will, it means I have been harmed by the heavenly gods. You must uphold your father's legacy; from now on, Between Between Between Beijia and the heavenly gods shall be irreconcilable——"

The high-ranking officials of the Heavenly Palace were startled.

This is, this is the voice of the deceased demon emperor!

It turns out that in the skies above the southern gate of Lingxu City, where the battle was fiercest, a huge azure flood dragon appeared, piercing clouds and splitting the moon, fierce and domineering, exactly the biological father of Wuhuan, the former demon emperor of Between Between Between Beijia who has passed away.

For many adults of Lingxu, this scene is not unfamiliar, because this is exactly the apparition that appeared when Wuhuan was crowned on Longshan Mountain several months ago.

The old demon emperor pointed to the heavenly demons as the true murderers who killed him, and ordered the people of Between Between Between Beijia to rise up in resistance, to break free from the heavenly demons' control.

Moreover, it is precisely because of the old demon emperor's last words that the lie of the heavenly demons blaming the Nine Abysses Great Emperor was exposed, directly rewriting the political ecology of the Between Between Between Beijia Empire and accelerating its division.

The apparition and speech of the old demon emperor reappearing today still shocks the heart.

This is not some profound illusion; it is merely that Wuhuan brought the ancestral treasure of the Jiaolong clan, the Dragon God Crown, to the front lines, and once again broadcast the last words of the former king.

The highest strategy is to attack the enemy's plans; the highest in war is to attack their hearts.

This is the arrangement of the Great Emperor of the Nine Abysses.

When the old demon emperor's voice and appearance emerged, the soldiers of Lingxu City on the city gates just showed expressions of guilt.

The late emperor ordered them to resist the heavenly demons, yet now they are serving the killers of the late emperor, working for the chief culprit of Between Between Between Beijia's division—how could this not be considered a kind of betrayal?

The morale of Lingxu City is visibly declining.

People's loyalties often depend only on what they believe to be right or wrong, and will not be forcibly changed by whether supplies are abundant, city walls are strong, or their backers are hardline.

And at this time, He Lingchuan has already ascended Mount Xushan.

Mount Xushan was once the first holy mountain of Between Between Between Beijia. Here, even great demons cannot ride clouds and mist; everyone must walk up the mountain.

But today he came riding a giant eagle, landing directly on the Zhaixing Tower.

The Zhaixing Tower is located directly above the Wan Shen Hall, and the Han white jade steps remain spotless.

The last time He Lingchuan ran down these steps, he was a thief shouted at by everyone, having stolen the treasures inside the Zhaixing Tower:

This time, as he ascends the steps, he is already the Nine Abysses Great Emperor, whose power extends to the four seas and who reigns over the world!

On this same stretch of steps, the Soul-Capturing Mirror feels deeply moved.

He Lingchuan did not bother with the Holy Lord of Lingxu's three main halls, but stood at the edge of the giant heavenly pit in front of the hall, took out the Qin bell, and struck it three times.

Three clear sounds echoed in the bottomless abyss.

He Lingchuan cried out loudly: "Where is Juju? Old friends have come to the door; hurry and meet them."

As soon as his words fell, a point of red fire lit up in the pitch-black abyss.

Something is rising from the ground.

This massive sinkhole is actually a volcanic crater, leading to a world of flames.

Soon, a great fireball emerged from the sinkhole, illuminating the entire Star-Plucking Tower.

Even He Lingchuan felt the flames rush his face, the heat waves scalding hot.

The great fireball unfurled before He Lingchuan, taking the shape of a giant — precisely his old partner from when he wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace, the Great Fire Spirit Rang Ju!
