Chapter 251: Demonic Cultivators Move, Rong Cheng in Danger

After killing one demonic vine, Lu Xun moved his body and again attacked the second one.

Chu Youqing and Murong Wan closely followed Lu Xun, also exerting effort.

To deal with these demonic vines, only destroying their main bodies works.

Otherwise, the more people they kill, the stronger they become.

This rapid way of becoming stronger also isn't without a cost.

The cost is that these demonic vines can't live for too long.

But they don't need to live for too long.

As long as they can bring enough chaos to Lan Xing, that's enough.

"It's time; now Lan Xing is in such chaos, if we don't act now, when will we?"

"Then let's act; Rong Cheng only has one Six Realm, we four are enough to capture all the millions of people here in one net!"

"We've plotted for so many years; today we've finally waited for this, this is a rare opportunity!"

When Lu Xun joined the battlefield, inside Rong Cheng, a group of people were plotting.

They appeared to be normal cultivators.

But actually, these guys are demonic cultivators hidden in Lan Xing.

Among them are four exceptionally rare Six Realm demonic cultivators.

In recent decades, demonic cultivators above the Six Realm are extremely rare, seldom seen.

But here, there are actually four of them.

From their conversation, it's clear they've had their eyes on Rong Cheng for a long time.

They've plotted for many years; until now they finally got the opportunity, actually intending to capture all the tens of thousands of people in Rong Cheng in one net.

These guys have big appetites and ambitions.

"It's perfect that Murong Wan and Lu Xun are here, plus that Chu Youqing... this really is heaven helping me."

When a Six Realm demonic cultivator looked up, he happened to see Murong Wan in the sky, and greed instantly appeared in his eyes.

"Seniors, could you, for my father's sake, let me personally kill Lu Xun to avenge my family?"

The Wang Family Head's voice sounded.

This guy actually mixed together with the demonic cultivators.

"Of course; before killing him, you can torture him well—such a talent, making him the main soul of my Ten Thousand Souls Banner would be fitting for his monstrous talent."

Another Six Realm demonic cultivator said lightly.

"Thank you, seniors!"

The Wang Family Head was overjoyed.

"Lu Xun, this time you cannot escape calamity!"

Then he raised his head, looking at Lu Xun with eyes full of hatred.

A few months ago, the Wang family colluded with Murong Tian, attempting to kill Murong Zhan in the Spirit Realm, then captured Murong Wan and sold her to a demonic cultivator.

That demonic cultivator... is exactly one of these four.

This is actually the idea of the Wang Family's Fifth Realm Grand Master, Wang Feng.

Wang Feng, in order to rise, spared no means.

At first, the Wang Family Head felt this wasn't good.

With Lu Xun's arrival, Wang Feng and the Wang Family's other two Fourth Realm cultivators were killed; driven by hatred, the Wang Family Head long forgot right from wrong.

He now only wants to kill Lu Xun.

These past months, the Wang Family Head has had a very hard time.

He feared Lu Xun would come and destroy the Wang family, so he dispersed the Wang family members and told Wang Tengyun never to return to Rong Cheng, to stay at Beidou University instead.

As for himself, he contacted these demonic cultivators through some means left by Wang Feng.

He wants revenge.

This revenge, he must take!

Coincidentally, these demonic cultivators have plotted for many years, always wanting to strike at Rong Cheng.

If there were no Yao Xing invasion, they would not launch this time.

Now, the opportunity brought by the Yao Xing invasion is a once-in-a-lifetime chance.

If they seize the opportunity to capture Rong Cheng's over ten million people and many cultivators in one net, the profit would be enough for them to rise to the Eight Realm after joining the Demon Tribe.

So they decided to launch.

As for whether this would implicate Wang Tengyun, the Wang Family Head isn't worried.

He didn't let Wang Tengyun participate in these schemes.

"Let's begin."

"Good!"

After the demonic cultivators said that, they all shot up into the sky, flying toward the various directions of Rong Cheng.

At this time, they hadn't yet been exposed, and the cultivators in the sky didn't notice their abnormality.

Soon, they flew to the surroundings of Rong Cheng.

"The show is about to begin~"

A Six Realm demonic cultivator laughed heartily, his whole body's power suddenly erupting, and he struck a watchtower on Rong Cheng's city wall with a single blow.

"Boom!"

Although that watchtower had a formation protecting it, under his successive attacks it could not withstand and collapsed with a boom.

"Break it for me!"

Boom~

Another three Six Realms demon cultivators likewise attacked similar spots.

Besides them, some Five Realms demon cultivators all took action.

The walls of Rong Cheng were thus left riddled with holes.

The city's grand protective formation instantly became unstable; after flickering a few times, it shattered outright.

The city's grand protective formation is extremely strong against external threats, but internally it is relatively easy to breach.

Fortresses always begin to crumble from within.

If it were other foreign peoples, it wouldn't be that easy either.

For foreign peoples to infiltrate Rong Cheng is inherently not easy.

But these demon cultivators are humans; they hide among the populace, making them extremely hard to detect.

They have lain dormant in Rong Cheng for many years, studying the city's grand protective formation for years, knowing which points to attack to break it fastest.

"Oh no, it's demon cultivators!"

When the demon cultivators launched their attack, the cultivators in Rong Cheng who were dealing with the demon vines in the sky noticed it immediately.

These demon cultivators attacked without any concealment; the commotion was not ordinary, making it hard for cultivators above the Fourth Realm to fail to notice.

"Demon cultivators!"

Lu Xun likewise saw those demon cultivators making their move.

"These guys really aren't acting like humans."

While the demon vines ran rampant and the Demon Star's invasion raged like fire, these demon cultivators seized the opportunity to run out and cause trouble.

Although they wear human skins, in Lu Xun's eyes they can no longer be considered human.

"Boom boom boom~"

Lu Xun swiftly struck, killing a demon vine, then turned to attack a demon cultivator.

"Follow me."

"Hmm!"

Given the current situation, he dare not let Chu Youqing and Murong Wan act alone.

"Rumble~"

"Suddenly."

Around Rong Cheng, demonic energy erupted.

A huge demonic formation quickly rose, enveloping the entire Rong Cheng.

"Oh no."

As a seventh-rank formation master, Lu Xun immediately sensed how troublesome this demonic formation was.

He was about to rush out, but he forcibly stopped himself.

"What's the point of going?"

If he went out, with his current strength, trying to break this formation would actually not be that easy.

Since these demon cultivators dared to launch it, they must be confident they can use this formation to block Six and Seven Realm cultivators for a certain time.

For such formations, they are only vulnerable from within.

"Youqing, Waner, you go out first; Waner, seek help from Teacher Fu Yue!"

Lu Xun, without a word, directly activated spatial translocation, moving the two women out.

He didn't know how strong these demon cultivators were, or whether they had reached the Seventh Realm.

Thus sending the two women away was the correct choice.

In his haste, Lu Xun didn't even notice that his way of addressing Murong Wan had changed to 'Waner'.

Chu Youqing and Murong Wan likewise didn't notice.

The two women hadn't even had a chance to speak before Lu Xun translocated them out.

"Oh no, this is the Nine Nether Absolute Annihilation Array!"

Meanwhile, the President of the Martial Manor's face drastically changed.

Ordinary people cannot recognize this formation.

As the President of the Martial Manor, he knew many secrets, yet he recognized it.

"What, the Nine Nether Absolute Annihilation Array?"

President Wang's face likewise changed greatly.

The Nine Nether Absolute Annihilation Array is an extraordinarily formidable demonic formation; once activated, those inside cannot get out, and those outside cannot get in.

Inside, everyone except the demon cultivators will gradually have their life force drained by the Nine Nether Absolute Annihilation Array, turning into 'human pellets'.

Their souls will become resentful spirits trapped in the demon cultivators' Myriad Soul Banner.

At the dawn of the High Martial Era, demon cultivators already used this formation to slaughter a million people, then defected to the demon cultivators.

Taking advantage of this harvest, this demon cultivator, originally of very poor aptitude, forcibly broke through to the Seventh Realm.

But if he had followed the righteous path, he would unlikely ever break through to the Fifth Realm in his lifetime.

This is also why demon cultivators were once especially prevalent on Lan Xing.

"How could there be a Nine Nether Absolute Annihilation Array here!"

President Wang was utterly bewildered.

Setting up a Nine Nether Absolute Annihilation Array is nowhere near that simple.

How long have these demon cultivators been operating in Rong Cheng?

Yet, after all these years, they still haven't noticed!

Now, Rong Cheng is going to suffer.
