Chapter 759

~16 min read 3,049 words

In the blue void.

Seven figures stood side by side.

Surging demonic energy flowed endlessly on their bodies.

Occasionally, some insects flew by nearby, but the insects, which were usually unscrupulous, saw the momentum of the few and their eyes became clear, retreating one after another.

The leader had rhinoceros horns on his head and a strong, tall figure.

He looked down at the vast sea of clouds below, as if he could see through the clouds to the ancient majestic city that lay on the earth, spanning between the human and demon races.

"The human race is good at formations, connecting the great trend of heaven and earth, and wielding infinite power."

"If we attack head-on, with the power of our seven demons, we may not be able to break it."

"Therefore, everyone needs to take action together in a moment to pull the power of the formations in all directions, helping me break it in one fell swoop!"

Commander Commander Qixi's gaze swept over the six demons behind him; four were temporarily under his command, while the other two were invited by his personal friendship.

"Cheng Guan, Lu Hao, you attack the North City and attract attention for me!"

"Yes, Commander!"

"Wuguang, Youying, you are good at consecutive attack methods; the South City is left to you."

"Rest assured, I heard that only one True Person Xianhe guards the South City; the two of us can break it with a wave of our hands."

Then, Commander Commander Qixi turned his gaze to the remaining two demons.

"The East City Gate is guarded personally by Qin Qin Baixiang of the Hundred Beasts Sect. His cultivation is average, but he has a Fourth-tier spirit beast guarding him. I have arranged for An Ming to ambush, but it is still not enough. Fellow Daoist Shichamo, please help me take action in a moment."

The Demon Emperor named Shichamo smiled and nodded, seemingly not too worried.

However, he had the confidence for this pride.

If judged by human cultivation, his mid-stage Fourth-tier level was comparable to the mid-stage Nascent Soul. Dealing with an enemy of the same level, and two against one, was not a problem at all.

As for that so-called Fourth-tier spirit beast, he didn't take it seriously at all.

Demonic beasts tamed by the human race had long lost their wildness and were not a threat!

In his ear came the polite words of Commander Commander Qixi, and Shichamo looked at the last person with fear.

Just standing there, he was two or three zhang tall!

A black robe, which was originally quite wide, covered his body but was stretched tight by his muscles, looking like a tight-fitting garment.

His cheeks were narrow and long, his eyes were completely white, and only his pupils were a bit golden.

Looking closely, those whites were not skin color at all, but arcs of electricity that flickered endlessly.

Thunder Prison!

His cultivation was at the mid-stage Fourth-tier, and he had the bloodline of the wild beast Lei Peng.

These were not strange; any top Demon Emperor in this world had some background.

But it was rumored that he had fought hundreds of rounds with a great late-stage Nascent Soul human cultivator.

Although he was seriously injured, he survived by luck in the end.

After that battle, the name of Thunder Prison was known to every demon among the top powerhouses of the million mountains.

Some Demon Emperors even believed that Thunder Prison had the strength of the Nine Great Commanders!

Unexpectedly, Commander Commander Qixi was able to invite this person.

"Thunder Prison, there's no need to say anything between us. Of the four city gates of Ye Lingtian Pass, only the West City Gate in the rear has the weakest defense and is relatively the easiest to break through. I will leave this place to you alone!"

Thunder Prison looked down at the crowd, his narrow cheeks and mouth slightly protruding.

He smiled grimly, his hands clasped together, his knuckles cracking.

"I haven't taken action for a hundred years while healing; today it's time to stretch my muscles and bones."

Commander Qixi thought for a moment and still exhorted: "The details of the True Person guarding that place are unknown, but his spiritual sense strength is about the mid-stage Nascent Soul level. Human powerhouses are good at borrowing external forces and have endless methods, so you must be careful."

Hearing the words "human powerhouses are good at borrowing external forces and have endless methods," murderous intent arose on Thunder Prison's face.

"You don't need to remind me; I know better than anyone!"

A hundred years ago, in that battle, countless demonic beasts only thought it was glorious enough that he survived under the hands of a great human cultivator.

Only he knew how miserably he had been suppressed in that battle.

Moreover, the number of methods that old man had exceeded anything he had seen in his life.

The four words "endless methods" were truly a perfect description.

Crack!

In the clouds below, there was a sound of thunder.

Commander Commander Qixi took a deep breath.

"It's time!"

At the East City Gate.

Qin Qin Baixiang stood on the city wall, still letting the strong wind blow his robes.

Since receiving the news brought back by the Alchemy Master Luo Chen, he would occasionally come up to take a look in person to prevent any accidents.

Especially today, he always felt uneasy.

Suddenly, his eyes narrowed.

In the distance, smoke and dust rose.

Several escape lights landed under the city wall.

Before entering the city, Qin Qin Baixiang sent a sound transmission.

"What happened over there?"

Below was the patrol team that had just returned. Seeing Qin Qin Baixiang's figure, their panicked hearts calmed down a bit.

"Reporting to the True Person, Huoling has been broken, and some fellow daoists have run out. However, there are still a large number of demonic beasts chasing them behind. Relying on our patrol team alone, we cannot kill them, so we specifically returned to the city to ask for reinforcements."

Has Huoling been broken?

Qin Qin Baixiang frowned, his spiritual sense surging out.

Soon, he detected a faint aura among the crowd a hundred miles away.

"Fellow Daoist Mount Gaoling is still alive, but his state seems not very good!"

The owner of the aura also felt Qin Qin Baixiang's unscrupulous spiritual sense and hurriedly opened his mouth: "Is it Fellow Daoist Qin of the Hundred Beasts Sect? Please come out of the city to help me. My sect only has these elites left, and we must not suffer any more losses. I will have a generous reward afterward!"

Qin Qin Baixiang lifted his foot, but instantly withdrew it.

"It's only a hundred miles away; I'll be there in an instant. Fellow Daoist, hold on a little longer."

"You!"

True Person Mount Gaoling shouted angrily, but did not force it.

He slashed out several sword lights in succession, slaughtering a large number of demonic beasts behind him, thereby winning enough time for the disciples under his command.

Drip!

Large raindrops dripped down.

The rolling smoke and dust seemed to have been extinguished a lot.

From afar, one could see miserable figures supporting each other as they arrived under Ye Lingtian Pass.

But at this moment, the city gate was not open!

A woman with a messy bun and still charming flew over with a long sword.

She looked angrily at Qin Qin Baixiang, who was standing still on the city wall. "Fellow Daoist, are you still not opening the gate?"

Qin Qin Baixiang's gaze swept over the dozens of cultivators under the city. Huoling, which was once famous for its rich underground resources and had ten thousand sect members, only had this many left now?

"The city gate will open immediately, but before entering the city, you must undergo an inspection by the Demon-Reflecting Mirror. Please stay calm, Fellow Daoist."

Below the East City Gate tower, a bright mirror hung high, shining brightly.

But the woman couldn't wait and soared into the sky.

"What time is it? Do you really want to watch my Huoling sect be exterminated with indifference?"

Seeing her shrewish appearance, Qin Qin Baixiang showed displeasure.

"Fellow Daoist, you know the rules of Ye Lingtian Pass... No!"

Ten miles from the city was a no-fly zone!

Below the Nascent Soul, without a token, one must not fly at will.

Even a Nascent Soul-level powerhouse, if they didn't have an identity token blessed by the no-fly array, would be greatly suppressed.

The other party was so reckless...

The irritable young woman flew into mid-air, a cunning look appearing in her eyes.

A dark golden light flew out from her crown, pouncing on Qin Qin Baixiang with lightning speed.

This change happened suddenly, truly giving no room for reaction.

Qin Qin Baixiang widened his eyes, his pupils revealing the body of the dark golden light.

It was a six-winged cicada!

However, this six-winged cicada only stepped within ten zhang of him and could not advance an inch.

A surging sound wave rolled out.

"Monster, retreat!"

A yellow light flew out from Qin Qin Baixiang, turning into a nimble monkey, angrily beating its chest.

A thunder-like roar came from its mouth, turning into sound waves that swept outside the city.

Those Huoling remnant disciples who were unaware exploded into blood mists under this sound wave.

"Dusk Monkey!"

The six-winged cicada hissed, making a sound that no human could hear, but it also replied with a surging sound wave.

"Fellow Daoist, if you don't take action now, when will you?"

In the next moment, amidst the thunder and lightning, a figure descended from the nine heavens, rushing straight toward Qin Qin Baixiang.

Qin Qin Baixiang was not panicked, leaving behind a sentence "Activate the array immediately," and soared into the sky.

Boom!

Without any nonsense, the two fought together.

The battle in the East City came the fastest.

But it also gave other places enough reaction time.

In Ye Lingtian Pass, array lights flickered one after another.

At the North City.

Xiao Xiao Shiniang, the master of the Fireworks Ancient Island, looked at the two great Demon Emperors who were forcibly resisting the no-fly array and killing their way over, smiled slightly, and opened her mouth to spit.

Mists of smoke permeated out, her figure disappeared instantly, and at the same time, the other two great Demon Emperors were also shrouded in it.

"Guests are guests; two fellow daoists, why be so reckless?"

At the South City.

True Person Xianhe's expression was solemn, his whisk flicked, turning into three thousand white lights, striking into the rain curtain.

Two figures were slowly walking out of it.

Their brows contained murderous intent, and their bodies were full of killing spirit.

The West City District was located in the rear of Ye Lingtian Pass, connecting the five domains of Ye Lingtian, and was the safest place.

On the city wall, Zeng Ceng Yilong was talking to Commandant Yang Ping.

"Has Master Uncle gone out of the city to experiment with spells again?"

"Hmm, the Supreme Elder has been going out of the city very frequently recently."

"Master Uncle is already so powerful, yet he is still tireless in his research on spells; it is truly worth learning for our generation! Hmm, I cannot be lazy either. When the rest period comes, I must master the body technique passed down by Master."

Looking at Zeng Ceng Yilong's energetic face, Yang Ping felt quite envious.

The other party was both the personal disciple of Elder Wang Yuan and the child of the Supreme Elder's old friend, and was pampered in the Luo Tian Sect.

From childhood to adulthood, he never lacked resources.

As soon as the Supreme Elder returned, he gave his famous magic treasure from his early years, the Moon-Breaking Wings, to the other party, and also bestowed a heavy halberd, directly completing many of the other party's shortcomings.

Coming to Ye Lingtian Pass, relying on the Alchemy Master name of the Supreme Elder, he bought people's hearts on a large scale.

If this continues, in time, Zeng Ceng Yilong will definitely become the most famous generation of heaven's pride in the Eastern Wasteland.

But envy was just envy.

He didn't have much jealousy; the Luo Tian Sect didn't treat him badly either.

The old Sect Master gave him the Mingyuan Elixir instead of his own younger brother, which showed how much he valued him.

Later, he was allowed to serve as the Law Enforcement Elder, restraining the whole sect, which could be called a position of great power.

He was just an outsider, yet he could get such attention, so what was there to be jealous of the treatment of the direct line?

In the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a white figure.

"The Supreme Elder is back."

Zeng Ceng Yilong also saw it and said excitedly: "I'll go open the city gate for him!"

At this moment, Yang Ping turned around abruptly, looking at the distant place of Ye Lingtian Pass.

Several streams of light descended from the sky, and the arrays in various places were activated instantly.

Combining the Supreme Elder's exhortations from a month ago, he screamed: "The enemy is attacking, everyone be on alert!"

However, not many people could hear this scream.

Because the abrupt thunder covered the entire West City District.

Above the nine heavens, a great demon had descended!

Under the city.

A white figure soared into the sky without any hesitation.

Following his impact, a palm print emerged and kept getting bigger.

The heaven and earth spiritual energy around him gathered frantically toward that palm print.

The white figure pushed his palm forward, and the huge green palm print whistled forward until it collided with a thunder light.

Thunder met earth fire, instantly becoming an immeasurable explosion!

Boom!

A destructive wave spread out from the collision point.

The rain curtain rolled back, and the strong wind roared.

Even the ten thousand miles of dark clouds covering Ye Lingtian Pass were broken open by this impact, leaving a huge gap.

Daylight shone straight down.

Luo Chen was in the center of the daylight, standing in the air, his sharp eyes staring at the figure that was slowly falling after the explosion.

In his ear was the other party's grim smile.

"Such sharp spiritual sense, such vigorous magic power; no wonder that guy Commander Qixi exhorted me to be careful... Eh?"

The giant, nearly three zhang tall, looked at the white-clothed man in the distance, a look of hesitation appearing on his face.

"The comer, report your name!"

Seeing the giant's face, Luo Chen couldn't help but shrink his pupils.

Without thinking, his mysterious armor covered his body, his hands suspended in front, and he said coldly: "You are the one who came!"

The giant said "Oh," and was about to launch a thunderous attack, but in front of the inexplicable familiarity Luo Chen gave him, he was actually a bit hesitant.

"My name is Thunder Prison, under the seat of the Xixia Yuanjun of Mount Mount Cangwu!"

It was indeed him!

The great demon of Mount Mount Cangwu, who had once clashed head-on with the ancestor of the Five Elements God Sect, True Person Ancestor Shenyuan.

He originally thought he had died under the hands of the old thief Ancestor Shenyuan, but he didn't expect him to still be alive.

Thunder Prison God Peng!

Luo Chen took a deep breath, his hands slowly lifting.

A fire phoenix soared out from behind him, the monstrous firelight seemingly wanting to burn everything in the world.

Looking at the fire phoenix, Thunder Prison's white eyes narrowed slightly.

"Unwilling to tell your name and origin?"

"Fine, when I capture you, I will naturally know where that sense of familiarity comes from!"

He strode forward, running faster and faster, and arcs of electricity erupted from his body, turning him into a thunder giant.

Facing the rushing fire phoenix, he was not afraid at all.

Not only that, his hand shook, and a black hammer suddenly appeared.

The fire phoenix arrived in an instant!

Screech!

Amidst the screeching, it actually passed through an afterimage.

The fire phoenix was stunned, then turned its head abruptly and flew toward the direction where Luo Chen was.

Crackle!

Electric arcs flashed, Thunder Prison reappeared, holding the black hammer, and smashed it down toward Luo Chen.

With just one hammer, Luo Chen turned into powder.

An afterimage?

Thunder Prison was stunned in his heart, but reacted quickly. "Such fast speed!"

He turned his head abruptly, facing the fire phoenix that was chasing after him, and smashed out with his hammer.

"The phoenix is a natural divine bird; are you worthy of using such mimetic spells?"

Bang!

Electric light trembled, and the fire phoenix suffered a heavy blow, its magic-condensed body cracking inch by inch.

Luo Chen, who had narrowly avoided that hammer using the Moon Step, appeared in another position.

Looking at the strong figure of Thunder Prison God Peng smashing the fire phoenix with one hammer, he was full of fear.

"This demon must be the strongest enemy I have ever encountered in my life; relying solely on spells, it is difficult to win."

"Perhaps I can use the power of the Ye Lingtian Pass array to block him, or wait for fellow daoists to come to the rescue."

"But, I must not hold back anymore!"

Luo Chen's right arm trembled, and a touch of red light, flowing like blood, was about to manifest.

And at this moment.

He looked abruptly at the center of the city.

In the deep dark clouds, a seven-colored giant object, like a five-hundred-zhang mountain, stepped through the monstrous rain curtain and ran down wildly.

The violent spiritual energy between heaven and earth gathered toward him like crazy.

It was a rhinoceros, with seven colors surrounding its body, as if it were a divine beast from mythology.

Following his descent, the vast demonic energy pressed toward the city-protecting array covering the sky above Ye Lingtian Pass, causing ripples.

From the rhinoceros's mouth came a roar like an earthquake.

"Under the seat of Pingshan Jun, Commander Qixi has come to knock on the gate!"
