Chapter 999

Zhenhai City!

Ten miles away from the City Lord's Mansion, there was a quiet palace complex.

A black high tower stood among them. Once, the guards here were strict, flies couldn't fly in, water couldn't leak in, and it was the second most important place in Zhenhai City besides the City Lord's Mansion.

But today, most of the elite soldiers responsible for guarding this place had been transferred away.

From time to time, escape lights flew from above the high tower toward the city gate.

A gaze was retracted from the top of the head, and he sighed: "I don't know if we can block those evil beasts this time?"

The companion beside him snorted coldly: "With True Person Wen here, and the Nine-Fold Zhenhai Gates here, who dares to break in directly?"

Although he said so, the expressions of several Core Formation cultivators nearby were not very good.

Clearly, the intensity of this sea demon attack far exceeded everything they had imagined.

The Tianyuan Dao Sect had been peaceful for a long time and hadn't encountered a large-scale demon beast attack for three thousand years. Even with the Central Plains catastrophe decades ago, that level of battle was not something these Core Formation cultivators could face directly.

Therefore, facing the bold impact of sea demons on Zhenhai City, many low-grade Dao Sect cultivators were thrown into confusion.

And as time passed, the battle reports coming from the front also made every cultivator in Zhenhai City tighten their hearts.

Flying Eagle Island was broken, and all cultivators died in battle.

The Liubo Mountain defense line was lost, and a large number of sea demons rushed toward the estuary.

Even Shuozhou Island, which had the most strength deployed, was in a bitter battle, and it was probably only a matter of time before it was declared broken!

Under these severe messages, the several Core Formation cultivators guarding the black high tower became even more solemn.

"What if we can't hold it?"

"Even if we can't hold it, we must hold it. Do you dare to disobey the Dao Sect's order and abandon this teleportation array?"

Everyone looked back at the black high tower and couldn't help but be silent.

After the Central Plains catastrophe, the earth veins of the several pieces of land that had split apart were severely damaged. The teleportation array framework that originally spread across the Central Plains almost suffered a devastating blow.

The teleportation arrays to overseas were all invalid!

The teleportation arrays to the interior also lost most of their functions.

The teleportation array in Zhenhai City was considered one that was relatively well-preserved, not only directly connected to the Tiannan Dao Palace but also having a weak connection with the other side of the sea, the Dongyuan continent.

Over the years, Dao Sect experts on the Dongyuan continent had been trying to completely restore the Zhenhai City teleportation array, hoping to use this as a foundation to radiate to the Tiannan continent and reproduce the huge framework of the Central Plains teleportation array of the past.

With such an important place, how could it be abandoned just by saying so?

If the Tianyuan Dao Sect pursued responsibility afterward, they, a few Core Formation cultivators, couldn't bear half of the anger.

"Abandoning

is impossible. We can only coexist and perish, otherwise, it won't just be us who are punished, but also the families behind each other." The red-faced cultivator who was the leader said so, his words firm and incomparable.

Just at this moment.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In the vast Zhenhai City, three deafening sounds echoed, as if the sky was collapsing and the earth was cracking.

The tower-guarding cultivators looked at each other, an unimaginable guess floating in their hearts.

"No way?"

The next moment, shrill screams came from the front.

"The Zhenhai Gates are broken!"

The tower-guarding cultivators swallowed their saliva and hurriedly sent low-grade cultivators to inquire about the news.

Soon, they got the general situation.

A dragon-shaped desolate beast, leading a million sea demons, smashed through three Zhenhai Gates in one breath!

Those were the Zhenhai Gates!

They were forged by Dao Sect weapon-refining masters with deep-sea divine iron, tempered by heavenly thunder and earthly fire, forming an absolute defense true artifact. Especially connected with the entire city, and relying on the city-protecting formation, how could they be broken?

Moreover, they were smashed through three in one breath!

No one dared to believe it, but the fact was just so, and bad news kept coming, the fourth Zhenhai Gate was also shaky and about to break.

At this, all the tower-guarding cultivators showed horror.

Once the Nine-Fold Zhenhai Gates were broken, Zhenhai City, which was already arranged at the estuary and had no danger to defend, would be completely exposed to countless sea demons.

"Should we..."

"Don't even think about it, even if we die here, we can't retreat." The red-faced cultivator who was the leader scolded, dispelling those inappropriate thoughts, and then said as if to comfort: "True Person Wen hasn't taken action yet, don't panic!"

Everyone's spirits lifted. That's right, True Person Wen, the City Lord of Zhenhai City, was a Nascent Soul cultivator of many years and had also cultivated in the Dao Sect ancestral court, and his strength was unfathomable.

Even compared to those famous Dao Sect true disciples, he was not inferior.

As long as he took action, he would definitely be able to stop that dragon-shaped desolate beast!

As if responding to their thoughts, a figure flew out from the City Lord's Mansion ten miles away.

It was True Person Wen!

As soon as he appeared, his Nascent Soul domain unfolded, spreading toward the Zhenhai Gates.

However, before he could get close, the wind and clouds changed suddenly, and demon qi filled the sky above Zhenhai City crazily.

Three figures hung high in the nine heavens and struck at True Person Wen together.

"Came so fast!"

True Person Wen's expression changed drastically, and he unfolded his defensive means.

However, caught off guard, how could he withstand the joint attack of three Demon Emperors?

Boom!

With just one strike, True Person Wen was smashed

back into the City Lord's Mansion.

The magnificent City Lord's Mansion was turned into powder in an instant.

Every cultivator in the city who saw this scene was dumbfounded.

And in the void, those three figures gradually revealed their true faces at this moment.

One held a trident, with the demeanor of a king. One had water grass ribbons wrapped around her body, graceful and charming. The last one had an incomparably ugly appearance, with a bloody mouth slightly open, making people dare not face it directly.

Three Demon Emperors!

This lineup was desperate.

But the reason why Zhenhai City could become the first majestic city to defend against sea demons had its own foundation!

After only two breaths, a roar came from the city.

"Evil beast, how dare you invade our Dao Sect territory!"

The next moment, light bloomed around Zhenhai City, and streams of light surged toward the ruined City Lord's Mansion.

An azure giant rose from the ground, holding a long sword, awe-inspiring and domineering.

Facing this giant formed by the power of the formation, the three Demon Emperors put away their contempt.

"Being able to withstand one strike from the three of us without dying, worthy of being a Dao Sect True Person!"

"This giant is composed of spiritual energy, gathered but not dispersed, with vast power; I'm afraid it already has the power of a Great Cultivator, a bit tricky!"

"No matter, True Person Wen has drawn the power of the formation, so the Zhenhai Gates side will naturally be weakened. As long as the Nine-Fold Zhenhai Gates are broken, this city can be destroyed with a flick of a finger!"

The last one to speak was the man holding the trident.

The beautiful woman beside him doubted: "Se Bo, can that guy who can't even transform really smash through the Nine-Fold Zhenhai Gates?"

Se Bo sneered: "Ignorant, what do you mean can't transform? He just follows the path of a desolate beast, and his intelligence is far beyond ordinary fourth-grade desolate beasts. The most important thing is that he was sent by that great person in the North Sea to assist us; if you don't believe him, you should at least believe that great person!"

The other two looked solemn, clearly knowing what kind of existence the great person Se Bo spoke of was.

"Alright, prepare to deal with Old Man Wen! As long as Zhenhai City is still here, this giant is immortal; we will just drag him down, just waiting for the Black Dragon to smash through the Nine-Fold Gates!"

Se Bo gave the order, and the two didn't hesitate anymore.

The three took action together, starting to attack the giant.

And their attention was placed on the distant Nine-Fold Zhenhai Gates.

The sound of rumbling continued to sound. After the Black Dragon broke through three Zhenhai Gates in a row, after only a moment, the fourth and fifth also declared broken.

As long as the sixth was broken, the millions of sea demons nearby could enter the outer city through this.

As for the remaining three, they didn't have much resistance power.

In the rolling blood water, the Black Dragon swam upstream, completely disdaining the attacks from low-grade cultivators around it, just gathering enough

strength to impact the sixth.

Seeing it open its bloody mouth, in the roar, a huge ball of light began to condense into shape.

Opening its mouth and spitting!

"Break!"

The ball of light containing surging power whistled forward, and during the flight, it constantly expanded, constantly grew larger, and its power became even more terrifying.

This kind of means made many people feel puzzled.

Even the Black Dragon itself didn't know how it mastered this kind of demon art; in its blurred memory, it only remembered that someone had used a similar spell to teach it a lesson, once beating it until its skin was torn and flesh was mangled.

Later, it gradually explored it itself, thereby mastering this killing move with extremely strong destructive power.

And the effect was not disappointing at all.

Boom!

Only hearing another loud noise, the sixth Zhenhai Gate was forcibly blasted out a large hole.

The Black Dragon's eyes lit up, and while shaking its head and tail, it directly smashed open the large hole.

Thus, the smooth road was ahead!

"Children, charge!"

It cheered, and the countless sea demons behind it rushed onto the outer city area of Zhenhai City along the estuary.

"Then next, it's the last three Zhenhai Gates!"

The Black Dragon panted, its eyes filled with cruel and excited light.

At the same time.

The black high tower in Zhenhai City suddenly trembled for a moment.

The tower-guarding cultivators were stunned and entered it one after another.

Then they saw a graceful figure shrouded in gentle green light appearing in the teleportation array.

Such a scene was surprising.

One must know that the teleportation arrays on the Tiannan continent were not very stable, and those who dared to use the formation to teleport forcibly were all existences with absolute confidence in their own strength.

Who was this one?

The green light dissipated, revealing the graceful figure's beautiful face and aloof temperament.

She glanced at the few people around, then stepped out of the high tower.

Looking up, her beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly.

Her spiritual sense swept, and suddenly all the battle situations nearby were clear in her heart.

Three Demon Emperors dragged True Person Wen and involved the city-protecting formation.

Countless low-grade demon beasts rushed into the outer city area and were fighting with local cultivators.

And the focus of this city's safety was where the Nine-Fold Zhenhai Gates were.

"A dragon?"

The green-clothed woman snorted lightly, soared into the sky, turned into a stream of light, and went straight to the Nine-Fold Gates.

Her appearance was abrupt, but without any concealment.

The three Demon Emperors who were entangled with the giant naturally discovered her and understood her intention by looking at her direction of advance.

"Stop her!"

However, the azure giant roared and laughed, "You thought you were restraining me, but in reality, I am restraining you!"

Blue light flickered on the giant's body, turning into evil dragons, surrounding this battlefield from all directions. The giant sword in its hand evolved into thousands of sword shadows, killing the three Demon Emperors.

"Fairy Qinglan, please resolve the siege of the Nine-Fold Gates. Wait a moment, several other fellow Daoists nearby will arrive, and we will work together to slay these three Demon Emperors."

The green-clothed woman gave an 'en' sound and continued forward.

Soon, the Black Dragon, which was gathering strength to impact the seventh Zhenhai Gate, came into view.

Without thinking, she opened her mouth and spat.

A green leaf floated out, covering the sky and the sun in an instant.

The green leaf fell lightly, protecting the Zhenhai Gate behind it.

The Black Dragon charged ferociously, but after one impact, it was bounced back by the tough green light.

It was stunned for a moment and looked at the person who came.

Why did it feel a bit familiar?

Fairy Qinglan frowned; she also felt that this Black Dragon was a bit familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere, heard it somewhere?

But the current situation in Zhenhai City did not allow her to think too much.

Pinching a seal with one hand, silently chanting with the other, her hands overlapped and pushed out slowly.

A huge palm print formed instantly.

Her wrists turned, and she pressed down abruptly!

Great Heaven Creation Palm!

The palm print pressed down with a rumble, and the world changed color.

Others didn't feel it deeply, but the Black Dragon, which bore the brunt, widened its eyes.

It had an instinctive talent that could perceive the existence of heaven and earth vitality.

At this moment, in its eyes, this palm clearly connected the general trend of heaven and earth, gathering a large amount of heaven and earth vitality.

What it had to fight against was not a spell, but a piece of heaven and earth.

"Divine Ability!"

The Black Dragon roared endlessly, spitting out a huge ball of light.

Not only that, but dense earth-yellow scales appeared on its body at an incomparably crazy speed.

Boom!

With just one palm, the great palm annihilated the ball of light, its remaining power undiminished, pushing forward horizontally.

Crushing countless scales, it directly blasted the Black Dragon out for a hundred or so miles, its skin torn and flesh mangled.

Following closely, a seven-colored flower ring flew over, scattered in the air, and brushed to surround the Black Dragon's huge body.

However, the Black Dragon's huge body suddenly disappeared, turning into a small dragon only a foot long, avoiding the seven-colored flower ring.

"If it weren't for the fact that I consumed a lot of strength to smash through the six Zhenhai Gates, how could I be so unbearable!"

The Black Dragon cursed fiercely, and then regardless of the three Demon Emperors, it slipped into the sea.

It ran away!

In the distance,

Fairy Qinglan saw this scene and didn't pursue the victory.

Instead, she turned around to help True Person Wen.

Not only that, but in the left and right directions of Zhenhai City, there were several escape lights rushing over at lightning speed.

Those were also Nascent Soul True Persons!

Seeing that the general trend was gone, the three Demon Emperors could only abandon the plan to raid Zhenhai City and flee forcibly.

This battle didn't last long.

After Fairy Qinglan joined, cooperating with True Person Wen, they blasted the body of the ugly-looking Demon Emperor in a short time, and even its Nascent Soul was crushed by the Zhenhai City formation.

That beautiful female demon was no better, bearing a strike hard and borrowing strength to escape.

And Se Bo was the fastest to escape; at the same time the Black Dragon escaped, he realized that it was impossible to do anything. Borrowing the death and injury of two companions, he escaped from Zhenhai City unscathed.

The overall situation was settled!

Although there were countless low-grade demon beasts remaining in the outer city area, as long as the formation power returned and the Zhenhai Gates were restarted, these low-grade demon beasts would be turtles in a jar.

Fairy Qinglan looked at True Person Wen, who was pale and bleeding from the corner of his mouth, "Qi Qi Shixiong Wen, are you okay?"

True Person Wen gave a bitter smile, "Fortunately, I drew the power of the formation in advance, but I didn't expect three Demon Emperors to take action together. How about you?"

Fairy Qinglan smoothed her hair, "That Black Dragon should be transformed from a desolate beast, its physical strength is extremely strong, and that palm of mine couldn't kill it. Moreover, it is also very slippery, mastering the means of size as one wishes, and even my seven-colored ring didn't keep it..."

As she spoke, Fairy Qinglan's eyebrows gradually frowned.

Black dragon, desolate beast, size as one wishes, and also quite cunning.

This description, how could it be so similar to a certain guy who had stayed in the Fu family for a year back then?

And that guy was the slave beast of another person.

Thinking of this, Fairy Qinglan's expression changed slightly.

"Qi Qi Shixiong Wen, I'll leave this place to you!"

True Person Wen was stunned, "Several other fellow Daoists have also arrived, don't you want to meet them?"

Fairy Qinglan waved her hand, "No, I still have several disciples outside, I have to go and see their situation."

After speaking, her figure flashed and disappeared in place, appearing again several miles away.

Only green light flickered in the sky, and after only a dozen breaths, Fairy Qinglan's figure could no longer be seen.

True Person Wen opened his mouth and could only sigh: "This Junior Sister really values her own disciples, actually rushing over with the wood escape spell that consumes quite a bit of magic power."

Liubo Mountain.

After a great battle, it was a mess.

Originally there were ten thousand stationed cultivators, but now only a thousand remained.

One in ten survived!

A figure walked out of the seawater, his aura incomparably withered.

Lin Qingtong was searching nearby, and after seeing the figure, she was incomparably happy.

"Cousin, you are really still alive!"

"Cough cough."

Zhou Fuyou coughed twice, only feeling his head splitting, and the meridians in his body also seemed to be torn open.

Even though there was still a lot of magic power left, his state at this moment was already the worst in history.

"Where are the others?" he asked.

The smile on Lin Qingtong's face disappeared a lot, and her tone was low: "Of the twenty senior brothers and sisters who came, only eight survived. Yuhao also died, Zhou Yuqi's lower body was smashed, only I and Yuwei were lucky, only suffering some minor injuries."

Hearing this answer, Zhou Fuyou subconsciously opened his mouth, and finally could only sigh.

Although he didn't care about family affection, nor did he value the friendship of his fellow disciples, this squad was ultimately led by him.

Moreover, Zhou Yuhao called him boss one mouthful after another, but finally perished on this Liubo Mountain.

No matter how indifferent Zhou Fuyou was, he felt blocked in his heart at this moment.

"That black dragon..."

Just as Zhou Fuyou was resenting the massacre of the Black Dragon, not understanding the Black Dragon's letting go, sighing for the death of his companions, and his mood was complicated to the extreme, a green light suddenly struck from the sky.

He looked up and his mood lifted.

"It's Master!"

The green light stopped for a moment on Liubo Mountain, and after her spiritual sense swept across Zhou Fuyou, she only left a command to return to the city and disappeared into the distance again.

Zhou Fuyou didn't understand, "Where is Master going?"

Fairy Qinglan didn't care about the loss of magic power, and cast the wood escape spell one after another.

Unfortunately, this spell was considered relatively slow among the five-element escape spells, especially on this boundless sea, the effect was even worse.

Chasing that black dragon was quite strenuous.

Especially Fairy Qinglan could feel that the wood origin aura she left on the other party was constantly dissipating.

Once it completely dissipated, she couldn't find the other party again.

"It must be the Black King!"

"Since the Black King has appeared, then he must also be nearby!"

"Attacking the Tiannan continent like this, what exactly does he want to do?"

While muttering in her heart, Fairy Qinglan's footsteps suddenly paused.

She subconsciously looked up at the sky.

In the vast clouds, a spark suddenly fell from the sky, like a meteorite, smashing into a small island a thousand miles away.

The woman's heart tightened instantly.
