When these women and children saw Zhang Lingluo and the others, the fear in their bones made them scream.
Zhang Lingluo heard the familiar word again. Obviously, this word should mean "demon".
The fellow demon fighter was giggling, obviously trying to explain.
After their explanation, these women and children calmed down, and they all looked at Zhang Lingluo and the others with curious eyes.
Zhang Lingluo asked the old man: "Senior, why is the population so low?"
The old man responded: "Since the birth of the Demon Emperor, our Demon Fighting Clan has constantly had warriors fighting against the Demon Emperor. However, every time the warriors summoned never returned, the number of members of our Demon Fighting Clan has gradually increased. few."
"At its peak, there were no less than ten thousand people, but now there are less than a thousand men, women, old and young!"
Zhang Lingluo was surprised: "It's less than a thousand, then those houses we came all the way."
The old man responded: "It's just an empty house."
Zhang Lingluo asked: "We are all women and children. How many warriors can you summon, senior, to kill demons with us?"
"Probably...probably..."
The old man couldn't tell a number, so he simply responded: "All adult men!"
Zhang Lingluo didn't want to waste time: "Senior, let's call all the warriors now."
The old man said: "Master Immortal, don't be impatient to kill the Demon King, it takes time."
"What time?"
"There is no moon tonight. It is the moment when the Demon Emperor is at her weakest. It happens to be the best time to kill her."
Zhang Lingluo raised her head and looked up at the sky. It was almost sunset. Whether it was the sky or the earth, they all shared the sun and the moon. The same was true in the fairy and magic array. The secrets were beyond human intelligence and could only be regarded as a kind of recognition. .
The old man said: "Master Immortal, after a good meal, we will set out to kill monsters at night! Please follow me now."
Zhang Lingluo conveyed the situation to Di Zong and Xuan Zong.
Most of the disciples had consumed a lot of Qi during the Qi-control flight just now, so they took out the Ju Zhen Ju to replenish their Qi. The Earth Sect only sent Lu Yehua, and Fan Bochang went with him.
On Xuanzong's side, the guardians from Beipeng and Yunnan Diaoyue followed him.
Lin Dingbo and Li Jingtang asked the others in Shenwu Pavilion to adjust their breathing on the spot, and they followed Zhang Lingluo. They were also curious and wanted to gain more knowledge with Zhang Lingluo.
The seven people followed the old man to the entrance. After walking for a while, they felt that the air was dry and hot, like the summer in June. However, it was clearly near sunset and the sun was not bright.
After walking for a while, it felt even hotter, with waves of heat blowing over my face, as if I was walking towards the crater.
Although Zhang Lingluo and others are martial arts practitioners, they are also human beings. They feel the cold and heat of winter and summer, and they are all sweating due to the heat wave.
On the other hand, none of the demon fighters who were traveling with him seemed out of the ordinary.
Zhang Lingluo specifically asked: "Senior, aren't you hot?"
"hot?"
Turning to look at Zhang Lingluo and the others, he saw that they were all covered in sweat. The old man made a sound on his forehead, hesitated to speak, and replied: "It's not hot, not hot at all!"
Several fellow demon fighters began to chatter in low voices, apparently discussing something?
Bei Gengyun whispered: "Xuannu, what do they seem to be discussing?"
Zhang Lingluo smiled and said: "I can't understand what they say, but I can make a guess."
"Then Xuannv, what did you say they were discussing?"
Zhang Lingluo smiled and said: "Maybe they are talking about how we can fight monsters if we are so afraid of heat."
Nan Diaoyue blurted out in confusion: "What does being afraid of heat have to do with fighting monsters?"
The old man looked at Zhang Lingluo in surprise, because Zhang Lingluo was right about what he said, and asked in surprise: "Does the immortal master understand our language?"
Zhang Lingluo smiled: "If I had understood, there would have been no misunderstanding before."
"Then why does the immortal master know what they are talking about?"
"Senior, I already said I guessed it. Could it be that I guessed it right?"
"Yes, they are a little worried when they see that you are so afraid of the heat."
Bei Gengyun immediately asked: "What are you worried about?"
"I'm worried that you will be incinerated by the demon."
Bei Gengyun smiled proudly: "It depends on how hot it is. Even if I'm in a furnace, it won't melt me."
Zhang Lingluo said calmly: "Senior, you are worrying too much. We all have true energy in our bodies. As long as we use the true energy, we can go up to the sky, enter water, be exposed to severe cold and ice, and touch the hot liquid of fireworks."
The old man looked surprised, obviously eye-opening.
Zhang Lingluo continued: "It's just that true energy is like energy, it will be reduced with use, so if it is not necessary, we will cherish it very much."
As he said this, the heat was already unbearable. The seven people secretly used their luck to resist, and the heat on their bodies disappeared immediately, and they were all very calm.
Several demon fighters met and started chatting with each other again.
When we came to a place that was as magnificent as a temple, we saw fire and golden light bursting out, shining so far that it was hard to open our eyes.
The old man explained: "This is the Demon Fighting Temple of the Demon Fighting Clan."
The word "shrine" comes from ancient times. All races and tribes have something to believe in. Some clans respect heaven, some respect earth, and everyone they respect calls them gods.
"It is also the place where we forge the divine weapons of heaven and earth."
As the old man spoke, silver light shone in front of him, and large and small earth crystals came into view, piled up like a hill.
Others looked calm, but Lin Dingbo and Li Jingtang were shocked. Shenwu Pavilion regarded the egg-sized Earth God Crystal as a rare treasure.
Compared with the number in front of them, it was so small that they couldn't be surprised.
Lin Dingbo sighed with emotion: "With so many Earth God Crystals, how many heaven and earth weapons should be created!"
Hearing this, the old man looked at Lin Dingbo with doubtful eyes.
Zhang Lingluo also misunderstood, and pointed at the Earth God Crystals piled up into a small mountain: "That's the Earth God Crystal he mentioned. Senior, I don't know what you call this thing."
The old man responded: "Yijing!"
Zhang Lingluo asked Lin Dingbo a question: "Senior, I wonder how many magical weapons can be created with so many relic crystals?"
"Can't even build one!"
The old man pointed at the spot where the golden light and fire burst out in front of his finger: "That divine forge has been burning non-stop for ninety-six years!"
It burned non-stop for ninety-six years! Several people were shocked when they heard this. It was hard to imagine that this long time would take one generation after another.
The old man chatted as usual, and said calmly: "It only takes three more years of forging, and the divine weapon of heaven and earth will be born!"
Zhang Lingluo asked: "Senior, what are we doing here?"
"Open the furnace! Please be bold enough to be born!"
"Didn't you say that it still takes another three years of forging?"
"Master Immortal, you can't wait three years, but I hope you can ask the divine soldier Zhao Ding to be born at this time. It's better to have one with half the divine power than none at all."
Zhang Lingluo said lightly: "I'm just afraid that ninety-six years of hard work will be in vain."
It's like being pregnant in ten months and either dying or being injured when the baby falls in September.
The old man's old body trembled slightly, and he breathed deeply and said slowly: "Today is a matter of life and death for our Demon Fighting Clan. If we cannot kill the Demon Emperor tonight, our Demon Fighting Clan will also be destined to have its roots and veins cut off, and will soon be exterminated and extinct from this world! "
Until now, both sides share the same mission!
Life or death, there is no other way out!
When people live in the world, their hearts should be like a river that never stops flowing, so that their souls can have a place to belong. If it stops at my generation and there will be no one in the future, it will be like being in the vast wilderness of the universe, alone and helpless.
But when he saw that there were several pieces of wood under the shelf of the divine forge, and the wood was not charred at all under the intense fire, Li Jingtang asked curiously: "What is that wood made of? It was burned in such a fierce fire."
Zhang Lingluo said calmly: "It should be Bujinmu."
Nan Diaoyue, who was staring at the tree, blurted out: "I thought it was Bujinmu just now, but I didn't dare to confirm it."
She said and looked at Zhang Lingluo: "Xuan Nu is really knowledgeable and talented. I have also studied blacksmithing in depth, and I have just learned about it. The endless wood is an ancient thing. According to the "Shen Yi Sutra", there is a volcano in the Northern Wilderness. This mountain There are endless trees, fires are burning day and night, the winds are not fierce, and the rains are not extinguished.”
Others were hearing about this magical wood for the first time.
Nan Diaoyue was showing off. She turned to look at the old man and said: "Since there is endless wood, there should be burning stone. Using endless wood as civil fire and burning stone as martial fire are the first-class forging of divine weapons." .”
"The Earth God Crystal and the Endless Wood, these two things have become extinct outside. No wonder no Heaven and Earth God weapons are born anymore."
The old man was a little dazed, as if he didn't hear clearly what Nan Diaoyue said, and he asked an unexpected question: "Oh, Bu Guan Mu took it from near the demon nest, and many warriors died."
Nan Diaoyue asked, "Excuse me, is there any burning stone in this furnace?" Nan Diaoyue asked without shame when it came to hobbies.
The old man's attention was completely focused on the divine forge, and he suddenly seemed to have made a lot of determination and shouted loudly: "Kuru!"
In the Palm God Forge, the expressions of the two demon fighters who were responsible for adding the Earth Divine Crystal changed, and then their bodies froze.
All the demon fighters did not move or speak, and there was a particularly solemn and solemn atmosphere.
Bei Gengyun asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Xuannv, what did he say?"
Zhang Lingluo looked solemn: "Elder Zuo, don't ask anymore."
This is like a mother who has been pregnant for less than ten months, but the child has to be born. And to the fighting monster clan, this child is not only pregnant for ten months, but a full ninety-six years.
It is the only hope for their demon-fighting clan to continue to survive.
Zhang Lingluo didn't know whether their arrival would bring new life to the fighting monster clan or bring annihilation to the clan.
She, who had always been cold and ruthless, actually felt a little sad in her heart. She found that her heart was getting softer and softer.
The old man was silent for a long time, and it took a long time to accumulate strength before shouting that word again: "Kuru!"
The other demon fighters also shouted in unison: "Kuru!"
This word shouted from their mouths had earth-shaking power, and at the same time, it also revealed the determination to risk death and survive.
Seeing the two demon fighters in charge of the furnace holding the left and right handles of the divine forge, Bei Gengyun suddenly realized: "Open the furnace!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Yuan's divine forge was split into eight petals and spread out in the shape of a lotus. In an instant, it was like a firework exploding, with red lights shooting out in all directions.
The demon fighters seemed not to be afraid of these blazing fires, and did not hide or hide. Bei Gengyun and others immediately used their luck and body protection energy to resist.
Nan Diaoyue looked at it carefully while using her luck energy to resist the fire, and sighed: "It's really a burning stone!"
It is said that only the blacksmithing clan in the world knows how to use the secret method of burning stone. The Su family of Sword City has been studying for hundreds of years and still can't find the method.
Suddenly he was attracted to the object in the furnace, so he immediately abandoned the burning stone and focused on the object.
