Chapter 2995: This is really good stuff

~7 min read 1,245 words

All I want is for the child to enter the city; even so, perhaps when the child grows up, they won't even know their own origins.

They will only think they are of the Human Race lineage of the Immortal Realm, and will have no memory whatsoever of their own lineage.

But under these circumstances, the woman only hopes the child can survive; as long as they survive, that's fine.

Upon hearing her words, the surrounding women also knelt down one after another, pleading.

Regarding this, the people on the city wall fell silent, staring at each other, momentarily at a loss.

What's going on now? Weren't we supposed to be fighting?

If you're going to fight, just fight properly; what's the point of this? Your child's crying makes people feel terrible.

Just when everyone was still unsure what to decide, behind them, the Demon Race had already broken through the blockade and charged straight toward the Immortal City.

Obviously, they didn't intend to spare even these women and children; the Demon Race, eyes blood-red, laughed savagely.

"Today we can finally have our fill."

"The flesh of Human Race children is the most tender; today I will eat seven."

"Today the ancestor said, we can eat freely."

Sensing the aura of the Demon Race behind them, the women below the city grew even more anxious; the leader lifted her head, weeping with tears like pear blossoms.

"Fellow Daoist, I know this matter has nothing to do with you; the fault lies entirely with us, and you are under no obligation to intervene. I only beg you to take in the child……………………"

Having said that, the woman paused, lowered her head to look at the infant still wailing loudly—this was her grandson.

Unconsciously, a trace of maternal love appeared in her eyes; if not for this incident, the child should have grown up happily in the Divine Realm and later had a splendid life.

Perhaps he could even become a mighty power like his deceased father, roaming the heavens.

But this is fate; even with endless lifespan, who can say what tomorrow will bring?

After who knows how many thoughts, the woman finally gritted her teeth and immediately prepared to throw the child into the city.

Although the entire Immortal City is now sealed by formations, if no one receives him, the child will surely die.

But she had no time left; she could only gamble, betting that those people in the city would still feel some kinship as fellow humans.

"Child, you must survive."

She spoke softly, then suddenly lifted her head—but before the woman could act, a low shout suddenly came from atop the city wall.

"Attack."

Immediately came a series of booming explosions; turning to look, the road they had come on was now filled with heavenly thunder and flames everywhere.

"This…………………"

Being of the same Human Race, these women instantly recognized that it was heavenly thunder flames triggered by talismans and formation disks.

Just moments ago they had passed through above and encountered nothing; evidently, the people inside the city had not acted.

But now, facing the Demon Race, the people inside the city had no hesitation whatsoever; the sight left even these primordial Human Race women stunned.

One woman murmured foolishly.

"How many talismans and formation disks have been set up?"

"It's utterly insane."

Compared to these women's shock, the people on the city wall were quite calm.

Damn it, if we can't bring ourselves to harm these children, can we still hold back against you demons? We'll kill you.

Qi Xiong even stepped onto the wall with one foot and shouted loudly.

Don't hold back on my account—use everything, all talismans and formation disks, expend them all at once.

In an instant, the heavenly thunder flames filling the sky not only didn't weaken, but increased in number and grew stronger.

After all, when they were set up, they were basically arranged according to the grades of the talismans and formation disks.

First, let's have some appetizers.

And these primordial demons, having never experienced such a thing, were instantly stunned.

Although the power of these talismans and formation disks, to them, was no different from a tickle, posing no threat at all.

But the momentum was there—it felt like utter destruction of heaven and earth.

"What kind of method is this?"

"Is it again those humans playing with blood food?"

"Never mind, it's useless anyway—just charge straight through."

"Wait a moment, everyone be careful…………………"

Their hearts were full of contempt, but some perceptive demons sensed something was wrong.

This offensive showed no sign of weakening; moreover, it had just been struck by a bolt of heavenly thunder—though it wasn't injured, one could clearly feel the power increasing.

Feeling that something was off, they then reminded their companions to be careful.

However, before they could finish speaking, the first wave of low-grade talismans and formation disks had just been exhausted.

Then the higher-grade talismans and formation disks were triggered; in an instant, those demon beasts lost their earlier ease.

"How did the heavenly thunder's power suddenly increase so much?"

"Everyone be careful—these people are strange."

"It seems like another group of humans."

"Damn it, the heavenly thunder has broken through defenses."

A demon beast screamed in terror; although it was only a minor flesh wound, having been struck by a bolt of heavenly thunder off guard, its defenses were indeed broken.

It seemed harmless, but actually the problem had become serious.

Just moments ago, facing those talismans and formation disks, many demons could completely ignore them, even chatting and laughing.

But now that's no longer possible; these heavenly thunder strikes can break defenses—one or two hits might not matter, even ten or twenty hits might not affect them.

But the problem is, looking up at the endless clouds of thunder, the heavenly thunder falls like rain without cease—this isn't something that can be finished with just a dozen or twenty strikes.

Even a swarm of ants can kill an elephant, let alone—who the hell knows if these Human Race still have other means.

In a moment, the Demon Race were no longer calm at heart; each grew tense, wanting to charge forward.

But just that brief delay earlier, they were already under the attack of the Immortal-grade Talisman and Formation.

The attack surged again; now these Demon Race were utterly panicked, especially the weaker ones among them.

This Heavenly Thunder filling the sky is already enough to threaten their lives.

Their formation was completely thrown into disarray; the most absurd part is that, even now, they still haven't seen a single Human Race figure.

This kind of situation never happened before—when did the Human Race start playing so flashily?

As for the people on the city wall, watching the Formation, the talisman's effect was extraordinary, and they all laughed.

"This move is really not bad; just looking at it feels comfortable."

"Yeah, regardless of how useful it is, just looking at it feels comforting, and morale is soaring."

"I practically can't wait to go up and fight right now, kill a few Demon Race for fun."

As the Dao One Immortal Sect people said, when this thing blows up, you don't need to ask how effective it is—just ask whether it raises morale; isn't morale already raised now?

But just then, Ye Zhangqing's voice came drifting over.

"Indeed, even the lowest are legendary-grade ingredients, and there are plenty of eternal-grade ones…………………"

"Huh???"
