The thunder fell, and the many blood demons at the top of the city were all turned into a ball of black coal, leaving black pits on the ground.
Zhao Huai glanced coldly, formed several fire and thunder talismans in the void, and suppressed them.
Raging fire bloomed on his body, and a large amount of blood-colored steam rose and dispersed toward the sky.
In a short time, the blood demons above the city had been cleared away, and the blood clouds in the small town slowly faded away.
The people who survived the disaster came to Zhao Huai with unkempt faces and respectfully thanked him:
"Thank you, Immortal! Thank you, Immortal!"
"Thank you, Immortal, for saving your life!"
Seeing their embarrassed looks, Zhao Huai's mood did not improve, but he asked in a deep voice:
"Where are the nearby sects? Didn't they come to this city to help?"
A sturdy middle-aged man, who looked like a bodyguard, sighed: "The ones stationed near Yiling City are all small sects. They are all defeated by these man-eating monsters and have retreated to Lingshan." land."
Hearing this, Zhao Huai was silent for a while and said:
"Flee south, Dayan will take you in."
Dozens of people thanked him again and then fled along the official road.
Zhao Huai looked at the ruined city and thought: "The small towns on the edge of Zhongzhou alone have been reduced to such a state. What will become of the countries of Xizhou?"
With such complicated feelings, he continued to rush west.
Although we didn't see any similar tragedies along the way, we could see with the naked eye many abandoned cities.
The closer we get to the border, the more desolate the scene becomes.
This shows that the border is no longer inhabitable for people.
Either they have evacuated or they have fallen.
Either way, it's not good news.
After an unknown amount of time, we finally arrived at the border of Xizhou. In the endless loess desert, a tall city gradually appeared, with war flags fluttering.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, the sound of hoofbeats sounded, and a large cloud of yellow dust was rolled up.
Zhao Huai followed his spiritual sense and found that within a hundred miles, there were teams of armored guards riding war horses, interspersed in the loess.
It can be discovered through spiritual consciousness.
Standing opposite them was a large group of yellow-armored scorpions, emerging from the yellow sand. Their huge pincers were as thick as a man's arm, and their ugly mouthparts were very ferocious. They didn't know what they had eaten to grow so big.
The war roars emanating from their mouths caused the ground to shake violently, making people fearful.
"quack!"
"Zhazha!"
The unpleasant chirping of birds came, and Zhao Huai looked towards the sky.
In the sky, there are densely packed wild birds flying, blood sparrows with green eyes, snow eagles with blue feathers, strange birds with four eyes and long beaks. The aura of each one cannot be underestimated. Every time they swoop down, It can pierce a soldier's thick armor.
At the same time, the monks on the city controlled flying swords and kept taking action.
When the flying sword is released, it can penetrate a giant scorpion.
It's just that those strange birds are very alert. Once a powerful human monk appears, they will immediately surround them and try to kill them.
But as long as they dare to approach the border city, they will be stopped by the city's hidden formation and killed on the spot.
Soon, a crack appeared in the ground, and a huge creature rushed out from the ground, letting out a deafening roar.
The dense swarms of scorpions are distributed on the yellow sand surface, which makes people's scalp numb. Even the foundation-building monks who are trapped here will have to fight until they die of exhaustion, unable to deal with it head-on.
But when the scorpions in groups heard this roar, they all stopped, well trained, as if they were waiting for some instructions.
Seeing this situation, Zhao Huai finally understood.
Why did the Shinra Empire declare its demise in just a few years?
Facing such a powerful lineup of monsters, even the fully armed army of monks must be treated with caution, let alone them at the door of the Xizhou altar.
In the final analysis, the strength of the Wild World is too strong, and the strength of the Immortal World is too weak.
"Boom!"
There was a loud noise, and the giant thing finally moved, shaking the ground and splashing gravel.
The yellow sand dispersed, revealing his true colors.
It turned out to be a human Scorpion King standing on a hill four or five meters high. The naked man's body was extremely strong, with a golden hard shell below his belly. Two pairs of four large pincers were moving up and down. The body was held up to its chest, with an unruly expression He looked at the city not far away.
"The Demon King himself wants your city, and he still wants to resist. It is simply a waste of my time!"
The golden-armored Scorpion King said impatiently, and then he smashed hard with his big pliers, causing a big hole in the ground. Hundreds of soldiers were unable to dodge, and they all fell into the quicksand, screaming repeatedly.
"Golden Scorpion Demon King, don't be so arrogant!"
On top of the city, a scarlet-robed sword cultivator transformed into a light shuttle and rushed towards the Golden Scorpion Demon King. Judging from the aura he exuded, he was at the level of the Golden Core Realm.
"Hmph! You really treat me like an ordinary demon king. I don't know whether to live or die." The Golden Scorpion Demon King snorted coldly, flicked his tail suddenly, and the poisonous scorpion's giant tail quickly attacked.
The scarlet-robed swordsman pointed his index finger, and the flying sword came out of its sheath, carrying several streaks of red sword energy to resist the blow.
"Ding!"
The giant tail was very hard, and the long sword made a crisp clanging sound.
At the same time, the huge pliers met the fierce sword energy, but could only leave a few white marks on the golden armor.
The Golden Scorpion Demon King had a sarcastic smile on his face, crossed his arms and said condescendingly:
"That's it? How many pounds and taels do you dare to defend the city?"
The scarlet-robed swordsman gritted his teeth, took a step back, and then immediately turned sideways and slashed with his sword.
But no matter how he attacks, he will be blocked by the four huge pincers, unable to touch a single hair of the Golden Scorpion Demon King.
"Damn it, this demon king's cultivation level is already equivalent to the Golden Core Perfection realm, which is beyond the reach of ordinary monks."
The scarlet-robed sword cultivator secretly thought in his mind.
But there was nothing he could do. He was ordered by his master to help Daxia guard this important city. He must not make any mistakes, otherwise the tens of thousands of people behind him would be trampled by millions of monsters.
"Senior Brother Liang, let me help you!"
One by one, fellow juniors and juniors couldn't stand it anymore. Seeing the scarlet-robed monks falling into a disadvantage, they fell from the top of the city one by one to meet the scorpion beast herd.
"Ah."
The Golden Scorpion Demon King sneered, his eyes showing amusement, he spit out a big mouthful of green mist and swept towards them.
The sergeant who was the first to stand in front was contaminated by the green mist, and his body immediately rotted and withered, turning into a thick green water.
"do not come!"
As the scarlet-robed sword cultivator hurriedly resisted, he quickly sent a message to the fellow juniors and juniors behind him.
But within a short time, the blood sparrows and four-eyed strange birds in the sky had already set their sights on these Qi-training and foundation-building disciples. They were particularly sensitive to moving Qi-blood creatures, and as long as they were locked on, they would not stop hunting until they saw blood.
When the disciples of the sect saw this situation, their expressions changed drastically.
The dense swarm of scorpions in front of them had surrounded them with lightning speed, and a large group of strange birds were already circling in the sky.
The other party's intelligence is higher than they thought.
It's as if someone is guiding you from behind.
A strong wind blew in the air, and the unpleasant scream of a strange red-eyed bird came out. The green mist turned into a big invisible hand and shrouded it.
call--
At the critical moment, a huge fire mark appeared in the void, and the small red tadpole characters became brighter and brighter.
It's like some kind of complicated talisman, but it doesn't need paper as a carrier.
A large scaly fire cloud appeared, burning up the green mist.
A long black sword was parallel to the ground, passing quickly, carrying thousands of sword energy, hitting the dense herd of beasts.
Before the giant scorpions in the way had time to react, they were all pierced by the sword energy, and exploded into blood mist with a "bang" sound. They were so dead that they could no longer die.
In mid-air, there is a man in white standing on a dark green sword. He is handsome, free and easy.
It was Zhao Huai who arrived along the direction of his spiritual consciousness.
He found out that this place was invaded by monsters, so he immediately looked for it.
When the beasts around him saw him, they all roared anxiously and backed away slowly.
The birds in the sky continued to circle in the sky, not daring to act rashly.
"There are monks? That shouldn't be the case."
The Golden Scorpion Demon King frowned when he saw the figure of the man in white, sensing something was wrong.
All arrangements are made according to the Demon Emperor's instructions and are all calculated.
There are not so many monks in this world.
"No matter who you are, you can't hinder your great plan!"
The Golden Scorpion Demon King roared, and struck hard with his pincers, knocking the scarlet-robed sword cultivator away.
Turning around and rushing towards Zhao Huai, the ground shook, and at the same time the poisonous scorpion's giant tail flew straight out, like a rope, the length could be adjusted at will.
Zhao Huai silently drew his sword, he had never been so decisive before. The flying sword escaped from under his feet and struck out with a simple sword.
Swish——
The sword light flashed as fast as thunder.
A column of green blood rose into the sky.
"ah!"
The Golden Scorpion Demon King came back to his senses, screamed in agony as he felt severe pain, and found that his giant tail had been cut off and a large amount of green blood was sprayed out.
Not yet breathing, in the blink of an eye.
Zhao Huai's figure appeared above the head of the Golden Scorpion Demon King. The golden Nascent Soul's powerful mana in his body was transferred to the sword, emitting an ink-colored light.
Then he raised his hand and cut across with force.
Zheng——
A deep sword mark was left on the ground, and a sky of yellow sand suddenly rose up.
The tall golden scorpion demon king remained motionless, as if time had stood still.
After a while, the whole body directly shattered and collapsed, and the stinking internal organs were scattered all over the floor, along with the demon elixir in the body, which was broken into two pieces.
Zhao Huai, on the other hand, held the sword independently and stroked the edge of the sword gently. Not a drop of blood was stained on it, and his face was calm and pale.
A demon king was killed just like that.
The monks around him didn't dare to blink. They were all dumbfounded and amazed in their hearts.
So strong!
