The sky is bright.
The three immortal sects who were fighting fiercely in Mocheng finally realized something was wrong.
The golden light on the giant tree disappeared, and black mist rolled in.
On the surrounding city walls, a black light shield suddenly appeared, like an iron cage, surrounding them in the city.
At some point, many sharp tree roots grew on the ground.
Many cultivators and army soldiers who followed them were pierced through the body silently and fell to the ground.
Densely packed monsters began to crawl out of the ground.
The people behind them are dying strangely and in large numbers!
Roars came from all directions.
At the same time, overhead, the crown of the giant tree had covered the entire sky!
Many black branches hung down from the sky, like sharp swords, piercing the bodies of the soldiers on the ground!
"boom!"
A bang!
Jia Xun Gongyangyan and others, who had already attacked the giant tree, attacked the giant tree together and finally discovered the truth!
"It's demonic energy! It's the demon's blood sacrifice method!"
"This giant tree is fake!"
The expressions of the masters of the three major immortal sects suddenly changed, and they were both shocked and angry.
At this time, there are more and more monsters in the city!
"withdraw--"
Jia Xun immediately roared and swung the sword in his hand, smashing large branches that fell rapidly from the sky.
The masters of the three Immortal Sects immediately gathered together, roared and opened a bloody path, and rushed towards the city gate.
When all the cultivators saw this, they all followed behind in panic.
"Want to run?"
"Now that you're here, stay!"
A huge black shadow suddenly appeared in the sky. It flapped its wings and covered the sky with dense ice blades. It quickly fell from the sky!
At the same time, several huge monsters suddenly jumped out of the ground and tore hundreds of cultivators to pieces in the blink of an eye!
Several powerful demon kings suddenly appeared at the same time.
In all directions, there were still countless monsters emerging from the ground, roaring and rushing towards the human cultivators.
The cultivators from all over the world who had followed the three major immortal sects and poured into the city were all running away in panic at this moment, without a trace of fighting spirit.
Thousands of cultivators and more than 20,000 soldiers poured into the city, and soon suffered heavy casualties.
Many people fled to the city gate, but were blocked by the black formation light curtain and could not get out.
The cultivators outside the city who had not yet entered the city were being attacked by monsters and fled in terror.
at the same time.
The same thing is happening in Liucheng and Black Cloud City that were recaptured by the three Immortal Sects.
The cultivators in the city began to be slaughtered crazily by the monsters that emerged from the ground.
The situation in the other two cities at the back, Linqiu City and Luoshi City, was much better.
Although they were also surrounded by the monster formation, only the roots of the demon tree were killing people, and a small number of monsters were quickly killed by the practitioners of the two cities.
The main targets of the demon clan are Liucheng, Black Cloud City and Mocheng.
Because most of the cultivators in Jiuzhou Continent have been introduced into these three cities by their design.
In Linqiu City.
Bai Yishan was dressed in a Confucian robe, standing in the void, holding a scroll and reciting a war speech loudly.
The densely packed fonts turned into wisps of golden light, falling from in front of him and shooting at the dark tree roots that were growing crazily and killing people in the city, as well as the sporadic monsters.
When his awe-inspiring righteousness appeared in the form of a stream of light, the roots of those demonic trees were immediately shattered and stopped growing.
But Luoshi City on the other side quickly fell.
The cultivators, defenders, and a small number of people living inside were soon pierced by the roots of those demonic trees, or their throats were bitten and their bodies were torn to pieces by demonized humans...
The entire city soon became a purgatory on earth!
The five cities shrouded in the canopy of giant trees were soon completely obscured by black mist.
Looking from the outside, black fog was billowing and nothing could be seen.
The Great Yan army stationed on the plain outside Linqiu City wanted to rescue them, but they were blocked by countless roots and branches of the magic tree.
In the sky, the branches of the Demonic Tree were like ferocious claws, hanging downward and densely packed.
On the ground, there were tree roots that broke out of the ground, twisting and turning, and filled with evil energy.
The whole scene looks extremely terrifying!
Yue Ying and Yu Chiling, who led the army, immediately reported the news to Kyoto.
At the same time, he directed the army to chop down the roots of the magic tree on the ground.
In Linqiu City, calm has been temporarily restored.
The roots of the magic tree that emerged from the ground had stopped growing and twisting, as if they had died, and seemed to be accumulating strength again.
The city gates on all sides have been tightly closed.
The monster army that rushed from Luoshi City and Liucheng in front were blocked outside and roared angrily under the city wall.
The practitioners in the city all went out together to clear the roots of the magic tree in every corner.
Bai Yishan and Cheng Zhangyan stood on the city wall with heavy expressions, looking at the demon clan members gathered below and the fallen Liucheng in the distance, and discussed in a deep voice.
"We cannot abandon the city. There are still people in the city. Besides, Linqiu City is the last pass into the inland. We must hold on no matter what. If it falls, the demon army will be able to move forward unimpeded, and the inland is in danger!"
Zhang Yan said with determination on his face.
Bai Yishan looked at Liucheng in the distance and sighed: "I'm afraid that even if we want to abandon the city now, we won't be able to get out."
The city was surrounded by a powerful formation.
What's even more terrifying is that there are tentacles of the magic tree waiting on both the ground and the sky.
The general on the side also sighed: "I thought that the three major immortal sects were already sure of victory, and we didn't have to fight back the demon clan anymore. Who would have thought that this sacred tree of heaven and earth... ah..."
Bai Yishan raised his head, looked at the huge tree crown high in the sky and said: "This is a demon tree, where is the holy tree of heaven and earth. But the demon clan has hidden it very well, and has already figured out the greed of my human being..."
While several people were talking, the black fog suddenly dispersed over Mocheng in the distance, and a golden light appeared.
Immediately, the air waves pushed away the black mist like a tide.
Dazzling rays of light illuminated half of the sky.
The ground shook suddenly.
Even Linqiu City was shaken by the earthquake.
Obviously, the masters of the three major immortal sects are currently fighting fiercely with the masters of the demon clan in mid-air.
It was obviously impossible for them to leave from the air.
There are not only the masters of the demon clan in the sky, but also the branches of the powerful demon tree, as well as the formations and poisonous mist created by the demon tree.
What's more, there are their disciples and even relatives below.
"They probably want to try to break the formation from mid-air, but the demon clan's ability to control the air cannot be underestimated. There are two demon kings known as air overlords."
Zhang Yan said solemnly.
"Now we can't protect ourselves, otherwise we can go to the rescue. After all, we are all human cultivators..."
"Liucheng and Black Cloud City should both be occupied by demons. Even if we want to go, we can't get through..."
"Hey, if their entire army is annihilated, we will not be spared either. I just hope they can hold on. There should be reinforcements on the way..."
Inside the city.
Luo Qingzhou and Fairy Zixia were looking for the remaining demon clan and clearing the tree roots on the ground.
Several people were walking around in the streets and alleys.
"Master, go over there."
Luo Qingzhou entered an alley full of garbage alone.
When I was almost at the end of the alley, I suddenly found another tree root emerging from the ground.
At the same time, he also found a pool of blood next to the root of the tree.
"boom!"
He directly shot out a ball of flame, which instantly burned the tree roots to ashes.
I checked around and was about to leave when I suddenly heard a scream coming from the closed wooden door next to me.
He immediately flashed and jumped in.
In the courtyard, a girl wearing a coarse cloth dress was huddled in a corner, her face full of fear and trembling.
In front of her, a woman held a sickle and walked towards her stiffly.
A shocking blood hole appeared on the woman's back, and a faint black mist lingered around her body.
"Uh-huh!"
Luo Qingzhou didn't get close. He stretched out his hand and shot out the flying sword, instantly cutting off the woman's head.
It's not that he has to kill people like this, but humans who are contaminated by demonic energy can only stop killing completely by cutting off their heads.
He had just met several others in other places in the city.
This woman looks like she should be the girl's mother.
Seeing her mother lying on the ground, completely dead, the girl immediately started crying.
Luo Qingzhou looked warily at other places in the courtyard.
Since this woman was penetrated by demonic energy, there should also be roots of the demonic tree in the courtyard.
But he searched carefully several times and couldn't find it.
He cautiously entered the house again and searched the house, but still couldn't find it.
Could it be that he had sensed Mr.'s righteousness and had fled underground?
He walked out of the room, looked at the girl who was still shivering and crying in the corner, and said: "She has been dead for a long time. The devil was controlling her body just now, not that she really wanted to kill you. Let's go. , it’s not safe here, I’ll take you somewhere else.”
The girl was trembling and seemed unable to stand up.
Luo Qingzhou walked over and was about to reach out to help her when he suddenly saw a flash of scarlet in her pupils.
"Uh-huh!"
At this moment, a sharp black tree root suddenly flew out of the girl's mouth and pierced his throat!
Luo Qingzhou easily avoided it, without any hesitation, and smashed her head with a punch.
Then he smashed her chest with another punch!
At this time, several tree roots quickly crawled out of her body like long black snakes, seeming to want to get into the ground and escape.
Luo Qingzhou's fist flashed with purple lightning, and he punched them directly into ashes.
He was secretly surprised.
Not only can these roots control the human body, but now they seem to be able to disguise themselves and deceive them.
Could it be that these demonic energies gave rise to other consciousnesses besides killing?
Or maybe you can capture some of the girl's memories and then use the girl's emotions to disguise yourself?
If that were the case, that would be terrible.
While he was secretly guessing, he suddenly noticed a stream of air appearing on the girl's body and rushing toward him.
He was startled, lightning flashed on his fist, and he punched him.
But the strange thing is that the airflow was not opened by his fist light, but instantly merged with his fist light, and then entered his body.
The cold air flowed along his meridians and quickly flowed into his Danhai.
Immediately, it turned into a stream of pure vitality.
He was suddenly stunned.
If he guessed correctly, the air flow just now should be the demonic energy lingering on the girl's body, but how could it suddenly enter his body unimpeded and turn into pure vitality?
While he was wondering, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a faint flow of air rushing towards him from the woman behind him.
Soon, that stream of air entered his body and turned into another stream of pure vitality.
The demonic energy floating in the air in the small courtyard suddenly disappeared.
He was stunned for a moment and looked back at the bodies of the mother and daughter on the ground.
The faint black aura lingering on their bodies has disappeared, and the woman's ferocious face has returned to its original state.
what happened?
At this moment, he suddenly felt a chill coming from the storage ring.
His heart suddenly moved, and he immediately looked at the medicine garden in the storage ring.
The mysterious little tree planted in the medicine garden was now shrouded in a pale golden light, looking mysterious and mysterious.
The petals of the blooming flower on the branch have begun to wither.
A golden fruit suddenly appeared!
