204: Go to war

Wang Peng laughed, "Hahaha, Miss Yun Li, you mustn't underestimate this hundred-meter city wall."

"Though the sparrow is small, it has all its vital organs. The Spirit Formation attached to it is enough to resist the attacks of a Martial Ancestor Expert, and it also possesses offensive capabilities."

"When the war truly begins, thousands of Demon Race soldiers will attack this section of the city wall. The main defensive functions rely on the Spirit Formation and offensive Spiritual Artifacts. Your Cangxuan Sect members are only responsible for dealing with the stragglers."

Hearing this, Yun Li was greatly surprised.

"That exaggerated? The Human Race and Demon Race forces have reached a terrifying ratio of one to ten!"

Wang Peng said with a smile, "It's not that much of a difference; it's just that the ratio of people on the city wall is one to ten. Outside the Demon-Rejecting Pass, there are many other camps, and both sides will engage in ground combat."

"But truthfully, whether it's in terms of army numbers or army strength, the Human Race lags behind the Demon Race. It's entirely thanks to the behemoth that is the Demon-Rejecting Pass that we can guard the Human Race's gateway."

Yun Li nodded slightly: "I understand. We, the Cangxuan Sect, will definitely be able to defend these two hundred meters of city wall."

Wang Peng nodded heavily: "Then I thank you all. When the Demon Race launches a siege, a bell will ring inside the Demon-Rejecting Pass to give you time to prepare. You are free to move about now, either resting in your tents or exploring the Demon-Rejecting Pass."

"However, I need your understanding: there are millions of Human Race experts who have come to the Demon-Rejecting Pass, so resources are tight, and living conditions will be a bit rough. Eight people per tent, with bunk beds, which can't compare to your Sect's accommodations."

Yun Li nodded slightly and said softly, "I understand. We didn't come here for a vacation, so as long as the living conditions don't affect our combat strength, it's fine."

Wang Peng chuckled, "Since that's the case, I'll return to command the army."

"Farewell, Fellow Daoist Wang Peng!"

After seeing Wang Peng off, Yun Li held a small meeting to assign tasks to everyone.

A total of 215 Martial King experts and 20 Martial Emperor experts from the Cangxuan Sect came this time.

Old friends of Lu Xingchen, such as Long Chen, Li Fei, Jiang E, Dai Jinghai, and Chen Zhengyu, all participated in this battle.

And on these two hundred meters of city wall, there were one hundred Vulcan Cannons, 20 fifth-grade Spirit Formations, and three Sixth-Grade Spirit Formations.

The so-called Vulcan Cannon is an Earth-Rank Spiritual Artifact, mass-produced by Human Race mighty figures.

As long as Dou Qi is injected, it can fire high-temperature fireballs, posing a mortal threat to Demon Race of the Devil King Realm.

Here, we must talk about the Demon Race's Cultivation system, which is not much different from the Human Race's, except that the character "Martial" is replaced by "Demon."

Because the Power of Law of the Tianyuan Continent is most suitable for this Cultivation system.

The Demon Race's Realm divisions, from low to high, are Demon Human, Demon Master, Great Demon Master, Demon Spirit, Devil King, Demon Emperor, Demon Ancestor, Demon Venerable, Demon Saint, and Devil Emperor.

They correspond one-to-one with the Human Race's Realms.

Yun Li arranged for each Martial King expert to guard a Vulcan Cannon, and the formation eyes of the 20 fifth-grade Spirit Formations were also guarded by 20 Martial King experts.

As for the three Sixth-Grade Spirit Formations, they were guarded by Dai Jinghai, Chen Zhengyu, and Long Yang, respectively.

The remaining people formed a mobile unit, providing support in all directions.

After assigning the tasks, Yun Li loudly declared, "The rise and fall of the Human Race rests on every individual's shoulders. Please hold your positions and prepare for battle. Everyone is now free to move about."

"Understood!" everyone said in unison.

Immediately, everyone dispersed.

Lu Xingchen, holding Yun Li's hand, wandered on the city wall.

Lu Xingchen's wandering was not aimless; he moved very quickly, measuring the Demon-Rejecting Pass with his footsteps.

Xiao Yuxin had once told him that she had left a Soul Imprint in the Demon-Rejecting Pass, containing information about the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.

Lu Xingchen was indeed quite envious of this Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.

Who wouldn't covet power that could slay gods?

Logically, with the immortal slaying sword as a medium, he would sense something as long as he approached the Soul Imprint left by Xiao Yuxin.

Lu Xingchen walked faster and faster, making Yun Li a bit displeased. She tugged at his hand and asked in confusion, "Xingchen, we finally have some time alone, why are you walking so fast? I'm already out of breath just walking, let alone enjoying the scenery of the Demon-Rejecting Pass."

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "The Demon-Rejecting Pass is located in the northernmost part of Youzhou, completely a barren land. If it weren't for bordering the Demon Race territory, no one would live here. What scenery is there to see in such a desolate place?"

Yun Li pouted and said softly, "The city wall is the most beautiful scenery! This city wall guards the Human Race's gateway, with defensive Spiritual Artifacts and Spirit Formations gathered, and now over a hundred thousand Human Race experts are guarding it."

"Seeing these Human Race experts, my blood boils, and I seem to feel the indomitable will of the Human Race's ancestors!"

Lu Xingchen smiled wryly, "I'm different. I don't like war. If I had a choice, I'd just want to be a teacher, living in a quiet corner, teaching a few students, and sunbathing with my wife."

Hearing this, Yun Li was slightly stunned.

"I didn't realize that. You're actually an anti-war person. But your Physique allows you to grow stronger in battle. With such a Physique, you probably have to do things against your nature often."

Lu Xingchen nodded slightly: "Indeed. Although I abhor war, I am not afraid of it. As long as evil exists, fighting will not cease. As children of the Human Race, we should do our part."

"Only by thoroughly subduing the Demon Race can we end the war, allow the Human Race to enjoy peaceful days, and only then can I be a teacher with peace of mind. Therefore, this battle must be fought, and we must win!"

Yun Li nodded heavily: "We will definitely win!"

Immediately, the two continued to stroll on the city wall.

After half a day, even though Lu Xingchen deliberately sped up, he had only covered less than a quarter of the Demon-Rejecting Pass's city wall.

Just as the two were about to return to the camp for dinner, the bell rang.

The Demon Race's first attack had arrived!

Yun Li cursed, "Damn it, why so fast? The experts from the other eight states haven't all gathered yet!"

Lu Xingchen said in a deep voice, "The Demon Race really knows how to pick their timing, specifically during dinner time at night, when morale is at its lowest, to send troops!"

"But it doesn't matter. The warriors of the Demon-Rejecting Pass are all Martial King Realm and above. Even if they don't eat for three days and three nights, it won't affect their combat effectiveness. Let's go back and guard the city wall!"

"Okay!" Yun Li said softly.

Both of them simultaneously spread their Dou Qi Wings and flew towards the Cangxuan Sect's defense zone.

At the same time, tens of thousands of experts above the Martial King Realm in the Demon-Rejecting Pass simultaneously spread their Dou Qi Wings and rushed to their defense zones.

This scene was truly spectacular.

The Human Race experts with flying abilities gathered extremely quickly, all returning to their positions within half an hour.

Lu Xingchen and Yun Li stood on the city wall, ready for battle.

Lu Xingchen took out the dawn bow and finally saw the Demon Race people for the first time.
