It was pure darkness, and the terrain was that of a cave.
Outside the cave, strange black shadows were wandering back and forth, like patrols, full of oppression.
Inside the cave, there are more than a dozen figures of different sizes. Some are still twisted and ugly and cannot bear to be looked at directly, while some are barely humanoid, and the difference is obvious.
The only thing they have in common is that their cultivation levels are both at the peak of the Tianxuan Realm!
"What, haven't you found out yet?"
At this time, in the deepest part of the darkness, there was a voice asking. There was no wave in the ancient well, and not much emotion could be heard.
"Reporting to Lord Xiegu, we haven't figured out who is attacking the deserted city yet..." A humanoid creature clasped its fists and looked at the figure on the dark throne in front of it with reverence and fear in its eyes, and bowed deeply.
"Humph, a bunch of trash."
Xie Gu dismissed it and still sat lazily on the throne, staring at the wine glass in his hand with his strange eyes, looking at the thick and smelly unknown red liquid inside, shaking it gently, thoughtfully.
Half a day ago, he suddenly received information that the deserted city, which had stood above the ancient abyss for a long time and blocked the saint clan's conquest, had collapsed on its own!
In this regard, he immediately sent someone to confirm. The spies reported that the deserted city was indeed caught in the flames of war. There were strong men fighting with the commander of the Eight Banners Army. The momentum was overwhelming, the roars were continuous, and the city gate was in chaos!
This should have been great news for the demon.
But the problem is that Xiegu didn't send any troops to attack Huangcheng.
As a great demon who had personally experienced the world-destroying battle with the Immortal Stele Sect and emerged victorious, Xiegu had an extremely noble status and unparalleled strength. From the very beginning of the establishment of Huangcheng, he had been confronting him under the Ancient Abyss. To this day, it has been tens of millions of years.
It can be said that he is the commander-in-chief and person in charge of the demons in the east. He has supreme power. Without his order, no one dares to attack without permission!
In this case, who are the people in Huangcheng fighting?
"Who is it, or is it true or not?"
Xie Gu whispered, stood up from the throne, slowly walked out of the darkness, and came to a group of demons at the peak of the Tianxuan Realm.
He is tall and handsome, with white hair flowing down smoothly. He is wild and unruly, and his eyebrows are full of evil and arrogance, as if he doesn't care about anyone, but the exquisite dark night armor and the immortal-killing heavy sword on his back, But he reminds others that he has arrogant capital and strength.
Just as Mochen said in Yidi Mountain, the high-level demons have long since broken away from their twisted and terrifying ugliness and returned to human form, even more beautiful than ordinary humans!
"Lord Xiegu, I can only make a guess." After hearing Xiegu's soliloquy, someone came forward respectfully and said.
"Say." Xiegu squinted.
"Although we did not send anyone to attack Huangcheng, we are not sure if other members of the same clan will do the same!" The man shouted excitedly.
Due to the existence of the sky seal, it is extremely difficult for demons to send troops to the fairyland every time. Taking the peak of Tianxuan realm as an example, at least half of the strong men in the demon clan do not meet the standards and are judged to be unable to pass through the seal, and Those who can pass through it will have to shed their skin even if they don't die, and it will take a long time to cultivate before they can regain their fighting strength.
This is also the main reason why the Immortal Realm still exists. If it weren't for the sky seal that blocked the demons' attack and restricted the vast majority of demons from crossing the border, the Immortal Realm would not have been able to stop them based on their background and strength.
And once it passes through the sky seal, even a big demon like Xiegu will have serious interference with the demon clan's base camp, that is, the starry sky outside the territory. Although it will not completely lose contact, every communication will It is extremely difficult, takes energy and time, and may cause unexpected dangers.
Therefore, if there is really any big operation to attack Huangcheng at the base camp, Xiegu may not know about it, or the information is on the way and has not been delivered yet.
"So, is it possible that other members of the same clan have invaded from the outer city of the deserted city?" The man continued, unable to conceal his excitement.
"Whimsical."
However, Xiegu sneered at this statement and sarcastically said without mercy: "Huangcheng is the easternmost place in the Immortal Realm. If it can be conquered from the direction of the outer city, wouldn't the entire Immortal Realm be occupied? Already? Is this possible? Stupid!"
The scene was completely silent, and the demon who made the guess shrank his neck, not daring to say anything.
Indeed, the last time they received a military order from the base camp was three months ago, asking them to raid the deserted city and attract the enemy's attention. How could they completely capture the Immortal Realm in three months?
"Could it be an internal fight in the Immortal Realm? As far as I know, the Holy Clan still has many chess pieces in the Immortal Realm that have not been opened. Could it be that it was activated? Or, there was an accident, and after being discovered, the same Just like Tianmo Ridge five years ago, we were forced to fight against the demons."
Someone spoke again, and this time it was obviously much more reliable. After hearing this, Xiegu's eyes flickered and he was speechless for a long time.
But in the end, he still shook his head and said: "It's unlikely. I also know most of the arrangements within the clan. It's impossible for those chess pieces to be activated now. Even if they are discovered, they will immediately self-destruct. It is impossible for a battle of this scale to happen." .”
"Then there is only one last possibility, mutiny in Huangcheng!"
The demon who proposed the theory of internal strife seemed to be quite resourceful. At this time, he said in a deep voice: "In recent years, the altar that Xu Yue built in the deserted city for unknown purposes has aroused the resentment of many soldiers in the deserted city, and several Eight Banners generals also criticized it. , maybe something happened that intensified the conflict and led to the mutiny!"
"Hmph, Xu Yue..."
At the mention of this name, Xiegu's face turned slightly cold, and his murderous intent was revealed.
In fact, in the past, his command post was not in this cave. Instead, like other big demons, he sat in the base camp outside the starry sky. He only needed to visit the front line in person during important operations.
Until a hundred years ago, an ant fell into the ancient abyss and killed him all the way there, making the entire outside world restless. In the end, he even escaped!
This caused Xie Gu, who was in charge of Gu Yuan's defense, to be held accountable, and was forced to move out of the comfortable environment and come to this smoky front line, where he would stay for a hundred years.
"Sooner or later, I will take care of you myself."
After thinking about it, Xiegu shook his head, restrained his murderous intent, and returned to his original state, slowly saying: "What I just said is based on the premise that what happened in Huangcheng is true, but what if it is an illusion?"
Silence fell in the cave.
If it's an illusion, it's just a trick to lure the enemy, and there's nothing more to say.
"Report!"
At this time, a demon with fleshy wings suddenly flew out of the cave. After approaching a group of big guys at the peak of the Tianxuan Realm, he knelt down with a plop and hissed: "Reporting to you sirs! The latest information! The battle in the deserted city seems to be going on. It has stopped, the walls of the front gate have been cracked, the towers are broken, and all dangerous places are dead silent, and there are no guards stationed!"
"What!"
"Does it mean that the fight is over?"
"Master Xiegu, make a decision quickly!"
"Don't miss this opportunity!"
A bellicose demon suddenly couldn't sit still and began to urge him to fight. Xie Gu also had a cloudy look in his eyes. Finally, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the spy's Tianling Cap, and then began to search for the soul arbitrarily.
A moment later, a picture appeared in his mind.
Sure enough, as the spies said, the deserted city in the picture has changed from its previous solemnity to a dilapidated state, like an abandoned city destroyed by war. It only needs one more push to collapse!
"Go! Send out troops!"
Seeing this scene and listening to the constant calls for battle from around him, Xiegu couldn't hold himself back any longer. After leaving several peak Tianxuan Realm housekeepers behind, he waved his hand and led ten strong men out of the darkness, and then Gathering the army of monsters, they moved towards Xiangguan.
When he was really close to the pass, he gradually regained his senses. He raised his hand to indicate a slow march, while he stared at the city wall above, hoping to see clues.
He had suffered several defeats here. The reason was because of the powerful city defense formation in Huangcheng and the iron army led by the Eight Banners generals.
But today, I was so close, yet Qianguan didn't react at all?
"Raise troops! Kill!!"
Xiegu thought for a while, and then let out a war cry, the sound was so loud that it was deafening.
But at the same time, he issued a military order to stay put, asking each demon to stand still and watch the changes in the front gate.
Still no response!
"Something really happened?"
Xiegu frowned slightly, soared directly into the sky, jumped into the air, suddenly pulled out the immortal-killing heavy sword from behind, and swung it with all his strength!
He wants to try it himself!
boom!
The sword wind was furious, like a tornado, and the dazzling cold light bloomed, evaporating the chaos, cutting off the years, and even the order of the avenue was burned to ashes, destroying everything.
boom!
The next moment, the sword light struck the front gate with all its strength, blasting open a large area of the city wall without any hindrance. The previously shining city-protecting runes did not light up!
The city defense formation is really closed!
"Everyone obeys the order and kills with me!!"
Seeing this scene, Xiegu finally couldn't help being ecstatic. With a wave of his hand, he rushed into the front gate at the forefront. Behind him, demons emerged from the darkness one by one. Under the leadership of ten people at the top of the Tianxuan Realm, Roaring and filing in!
"Kill! Kill!"
"Roar!"
This area suddenly turned into a feast for demons. Xie Gu stood in the air, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar land behind Guan Guan, took a deep breath, and then laughed ferociously.
The last time he broke through the previous level was thousands of years ago, and today, he finally came back!
"Um?"
But then, his smile froze on his face and he realized something was wrong!
"Sir, what's wrong?" A follower from the Tianxuan realm asked hurriedly.
Xiegu didn't speak. He kept looking for everything he could see, but he still didn't find that thing!
Where's the corpse!
Didn’t Huangcheng just go through a great war? No matter what the outcome was, with so many soldiers, didn’t even a single body remain?
How can it be!
"No! Get out!"
Xiegu immediately let out a roar, and several people at the top of the Tianxuan Realm reacted the fastest. With a flash of their bodies, they rushed towards the gap in the front gate that Xiegu had opened.
boom!
However, what responded to them was the runes that lit up all over the city wall, forming a bright light that directly knocked back several people.
"Ahem...what's going on!"
A weaker person at the peak of the Sky Profound Realm was severely injured by a single blow. After spitting out two mouthfuls of blood, he looked at the gap in horror.
There, an old man stood quietly at some point, holding an object in his hand with a creepy smile on his face.
"Was ambushed! Damn it!"
At this point, how could Xiegu still not know what was happening? He shouted loudly, his anger soaring to the sky, making the void around him tremble.
"I realize now that it's too late."
In response to this, Chang Lao's response was both salty and mild. He crushed the [Memory Simulator] with gentle force in his hand. The surrounding environment receded like a tide. The war and wasteland all disappeared. Everyone was wearing black armor. , soldiers holding swords also appeared from the shadows, neatly appearing in front of them.
"Hmph, you dirty ghosts, you can't escape this time!" Huangtian stood at the front, standing with his fists clasped, his sharp gaze directed at Xiegu!
"Hahaha, for the sake of acting, I was tied up! Now, let's fight happily!" Huang Gan waved his spear with high fighting spirit.
"Hmph, that's exactly what I meant! Huang Gan, why don't you and I compete today to see who kills more enemies!"
Huangjia's double hammers were already hungry and thirsty. On the side, Huangxiu Huangluo and others were all here, and the Eight Banners generals arrived together in a rare sight!
"Kill! Kill! Kill! Roar!!"
The military roar resounded throughout the world, and each soldier, with high morale, began to maintain their formation and advance forward.
They have just gone through the training and are still enthusiastic. They just lack an opponent to subdue the fire, and with so many demons in front of them, they are undoubtedly the best sandbags!
boom!
The battle formation was activated again, but this time, the Eight Banners generals were guiding them, and relying on the power of the city defense formation, they showed endless light!
This light can stimulate their fighting spirit, enhance their strength, resist the blood suppression of demons, and eradicate all the evil spirits in front of them!
"Chang Xiao'er! How dare you deceive me!"
Xiegu was extremely angry, but he did not break out blindly. Instead, he immediately gathered all his demons together to establish an overall defense.
"Since we are mortal enemies, how can we talk about cheating or not cheating?"
Chang Lao shook his head, walked over step by step, and said softly: "Besides, today's masterpiece was not made by me, but by him."
Chang Lao pointed in the other direction.
"who!"
Xie Gu looked angrily. Under the dancing white hair, the demon's eyes turned red, and his face was extremely distorted, as if he wanted to tear the culprit into pieces.
Then, he saw a punch that was faster than anything else!
Light fist!
"[Shining Fist of Heaven] is being triggered. The host blasts out the sacred fist and summons the light of heaven, causing huge damage to dark enemies, and the injured area cannot be recovered."
boom!
Looking at the golden fist, feeling the power of purifying everything on it, Xiegu's pupils narrowed slightly. He wanted to get out of the way, but suddenly realized that if he hid, all the men behind him would suffer, so he immediately chose to force himself. anti!
"Ding! It has been detected that the age difference with the current enemy is about 92 times. The host's cultivation level has increased by 92 levels. The current cultivation level..."
"Ding! It has been detected that there are shackles in this world, and the cultivation level cannot break through the fairyland! The host's cultivation level has increased by 4 realms, and the current cultivation level is: middle stage of Tianxuan Realm!"
Boom!
The golden light destroys everything it passes by, hitting the Nine Heavens upwards and the Nine Netherworlds downwards, crossing the heaven and earth just to destroy all evil.
A huge ravine was blasted out of the ground, and the Holy Spirit flowed. Before many demons could react, they saw their Lord Xiegu being blown away. After struggling several times in the golden light, he finally turned into gas and dissipated!
"Master Xu is mighty!"
"Ho! Roar!"
Many soldiers immediately roared at the top of their lungs, their faces turned red, and they were delighted!
They originally thought that Xu Yue's previous performance against fake demons such as Huang Tian was an act, but they didn't know that he was still so brilliant when facing the real demon!
At this moment, many people in Huangcheng turned into Xu Yue's fans, and their hearts were pounding.
call……
The next moment, Xiegu's figure reorganized in the air. As a big devil, he would naturally not be instantly killed by Xu Yue, who was in the middle stage of Tianxuan Realm, but that blow just now really caused him to suffer a big loss and damage. serious!
That golden light can actually make the injured body unable to recover. Only disintegration and reorganization is the only solution!
"Who are you……"
Xiegu calmed down and stared at Xu Yue with his strange pupils, like a beast ready to hunt, which was extremely scary.
"Your beloved father, Xu Yue!" 33
Faced with the threat of demons, Xu Yue always accepted as many sons as he could without any fear.
"very good."
Xie Gu straightened up and said in a cold voice, "I just wanted to kill you."
call out!
In this regard, Xu Yue didn't say much nonsense. He immediately pressed forward and came to Xie Gu in the blink of an eye. While grinning, he raised his fist again, with a dazzling golden light shining on it.
"I'm not afraid to tell you that half a day ago, the news of 'The Demons Attacked the Deserted City' had already spread. Now, the reinforcements from the Immortal Realm may be arriving soon! Today, we are the hunters surrounding you!"
boom!
"Desolate Sky Flag! Kill with me!"
"Line up! Charge!"
"Ho! Roar!"
The city defense array shines with light. This time, light surrounds the darkness, and the war is about to break out!
Some people died, but not completely...
