Chapter 595

Ao Senior Brother...

Shiziwen's voice was low and hoarse, his eye sockets felt sore.

But at this moment, several demons surged forward to surround him!

Shiziwen suppressed his emotions, swiftly dodging their attacks; he now only wanted to place Ao Senior Brother aside.

But the surrounding demons were too many; with Ao Su on his back, he could not possibly dodge so many attacks.

Shiziwen could only free one hand, condense a palm strike, and thrust it forward, blasting the demons ahead apart; immediately, he hurried to the base of the city wall.

He placed Ao Su on the ground.

Ao Su closed his eyes, with no breath at all.

Immediately, Shiziwen coldly swept his gaze at those demons, quickly condensing seal after seal and launching them toward the demons!

Soon, miserable cries rang out.

At this moment, on the city wall.

The City-defending Immortal Lord and the remaining human experts were engaged in combat with the demon experts.

"Don't let them enter the city!" one human expert roared.

The overall strength of the Ninth Province cultivators was already the lowest among the three islands and nine provinces of the cultivation world; now facing such ferocious and powerful demons, they hardly had any strength to fight back!

Moreover——

The number of demons exceeded the human cultivators defending the city by several thousand.

With a "bang" explosion, the city gate was blown completely open, then collapsed, flames blazing everywhere, filled with shrill cries and shouts of battle.

Smoke permeated the air, the stench of blood assailing the nostrils.

The two demon armies sought to charge into the city.

At this moment, the leaders of the major forces of the Nine Provinces appeared at the city gate, quickly forming arrays to resist the demon armies' frenzied assault.

At this moment, the corner of Carefree Sect's sect leader Bai Li Mo's eye caught sight of Ao Su's corpse, his pupils constricted, and he instantly flew into a rage.

"You bunch of beasts!"

The Carefree Sect leader roared, instantly forming seals and thunderously charging at the two demon armies!

"Cosmos Shift Diagram, suppress!"

Only see a Bagua Cosmos Diagram tear forth from the void with tremendous power, like a fierce dragon crossing the river, overturning the demons ahead to the ground!

The Holy Sect's sect leader gripped his sword with one hand and swung it fiercely!

With the power of early Body Integration Realm, he instantly beheaded dozens of demons!

Fresh blood spattered!

The Thunder Sect's sect leader leaned on her cane, then suddenly let go, quickly forming seals with both hands and fiercely striking the ground!

"Heavenly Thunder Soul-Pierce!"

In an instant——

The entire battlefield's ground instantly intertwined with lightning, then surged into the demons' bodies!

"Ahhh..."

The Tai Sui Sect sect leader, the Heavenly Cloud Sect sect leader, and others swiftly acted to intercept the two demon armies.

The patriarchs of the major forces of the Ninth Province also appeared one by one on the city wall, battling the experts of the two demon races!

On the battlefield, the young disciples and elders of all sects strove desperately to resist the demons, engaging in fierce slaughter!

Among the crowd, a green-clad girl gripped her longsword, swinging it again and again, her eyes sharp and resolute.

Her complexion was pallid, blood staining the corner of her mouth.

The green-clad girl was precisely Weng Mingshu, who had now reached the late Nascent Soul Realm.

On the battlefield, familiar faces were knocked down and rose again.

But……

There were also those who would never rise again.

That young disciple, his handsome face covered in blood, gripping a heavy sword, roared: "Defend Ten Thousand Cities, never yield!"

This person was none other than Dongfangxiu!

Dongfangxiu's cultivation had now reached the early Void Refinement Realm.

Dongfangxiu's shout was like a spark, instantly igniting the fervor and fighting spirit in the hearts of all the surrounding young disciples.

"Defend Ten Thousand Cities, never yield!"

Almost simultaneously, countless similarly impassioned and resolute roars gathered into a torrent that surged straight to the heavens.

Although they were young and their cultivation perhaps not top-tier, at this moment the battle intent burning in their eyes was in no way inferior to any expert, exerting every ounce of strength to block the oncoming demons.

"Hmph, ignorant of life and death!"

At this moment, a lithe, sinister-looking demon tribe man stepped forward from the crowd, gazing at this group of blood-soaked struggling human disciples, his face showing an undisguised contemptuous smirk: "Just you lot, you think you can stop my army's iron hooves? Utterly laughable!"

He paused, his gaze sweeping over Dongfangxiu and the others, his tone's mockery intensifying: "A bit of death-defying spirit is good, but alas, strength is not something you can just shout out with slogans!"

Before his words even faded, Dongfangxiu's eyes flashed with a fierce gleam; he stomped the ground, flashed forward, instantly covering several zhang, his heavy sword wrapped in tremendous force, emitting a sharp wind-breaking whistle as he angrily swung it down at the demon tribe man's head!

"Ignorant of heaven's height and earth's thickness!" the demon tribe man's face slightly changed, yet he did not dodge, grinning ferociously as he threw a punch to meet it.

Boom!

A tremendous roar suddenly erupted!

The heavy sword and the demon's fist collided, two utterly different yet equally powerful forces violently clashing and exploding in midair.

The strength of the human and the demon was actually evenly matched!

At this moment, on the city wall, the City-defending Immortal Lord had his neck strangled by a demon race expert.

"Immortal Lord——"

The remaining human cultivators were greatly shocked.

Seeing this, the Holy Sect Sect Master's face sank slightly; he swiftly leapt up onto the city wall and then raised his sword to slash at that demon race expert!

As time passed, the corpses piled up on the ground grew more and more.

There were humans, monsters, and demons.

At this moment, Character: Fan Quan (pinyin: Fan Quan), Immortal Venerable, had his heart meridian shattered by a single palm strike from the demon race general Bai Shi, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood and staggering several steps.

"Old man, you ought to die!" Bai Shi revealed a cruel smile.

"Just as Bai Shi was about to strike Character: Fan Quan (pinyin: Fan Quan), Immortal Venerable, on the celestial cap with a single palm——"

Suddenly, the sky darkened.

Everyone's hearts jolted; they looked up and saw the heavens suddenly split open, hundreds of streams of light like meteors shooting out from the depths of the firmament, accompanied by an extremely terrifying pressure that poured forth.

Everyone present felt a tingling numbness on their scalps.

"What is that?!"

Gradually, they made out the figures of those streams of light.

Everyone present was greatly shocked.

They were actually humans!

When they managed to see these people's faces, they all showed expressions of disbelief.

The leading girl with a high ponytail slowly raised her hand and uttered three words from her lips: "Stop."

These three words thundered like a bolt of lightning in their ears, leaving them unable to muster any will to oppose.

The battlefield instantly fell into an eerie silence, with only the crackling of the burning flames.

The cultivators of the Ninth Province below all recognized Yuan Yao and her companions.

At the same time as they were shocked, they also felt a hint of delight.

——They have returned!

The leaders and experts of the demon and monster races also respectively recognized Quan Li, Quan Xiu, Quan Fan, and Xie Xu, among others, and their expressions changed in astonishment.

"Your Highness……"

"Fourth Prince……"

Character: Fan Quan (pinyin: Fan Quan), Immortal Venerable, clutched his aching chest, his pupils constricted, and he couldn't help but murmur: "Qianshan Liuzi……"

Yuan Yao gazed upon the sea of corpses and blood below, feeling a faint pang of anguish in her heart, for she saw many familiar fellow disciples fallen in pools of blood; her expression turned icy as she said, "This is a war where all sides suffer losses—there is no need to fight further!"

"What are you even?!" a monster race expert sneered.
