232: The six mountains of Dao fruit all arrived and Chen Yuan was promoted to Dao fetus (asking for monthly ticket)
"Incense Projection?"
Zhao Quanzhen looked at the golden-armored giant in the sky, his third eye between his brows reflecting all directions, clearly revealing a Demon Battlefield. His nose and mouth tightened slightly.
He had cultivated for over twenty years in the Dao Enlightenment Blessed Land, reaching the second layer of the Dao Fruit Realm. Among the 'True' generation in the mountains, he was ranked among the top three, and his teacher was even a Human Race Martial Armory. He had also descended the mountain with his sword, slaying demons and devils, witnessing their ferocity that caused widespread devastation to living beings. He had also seen Wucang Great Demons in the mountain's Demon Locking Well, who, even when sealed, still possessed monstrous power and almost inconceivable Divine Abilities.
But seeing the Demon Battlefield depicted by the golden light, although there was no sound, it gave him a strong sense of oppression. Demons were everywhere, fighting for their lives, teetering on the edge of death. What was even stronger was a certain Aura, an Aura of 'it's either you die or I perish'.
He had not experienced such a scene. When he first arrived in this desolate mountainous region of Shu, he heard about the Yao Race breaking through the passes in the Ten Thousand Mountains, and that the defending army here had completely collapsed. He could only get a superficial sense from various news, or rather, he couldn't truly empathize.
To be honest, he was born in a Blessed Land and had seen too many astonishingly talented peers, as well as many powerful martial Dao Seniors. Upon hearing this news, he couldn't help but look down on it somewhat, thinking, how could the army defending such a strategic location collapse so easily?
Now, seeing this scene, his heart was shaken. The cruelty these soldiers faced was not one or two demons, like when he descended the mountain in a serene manner, with a Flying Sword hovering over a demon's head, enjoying the swift wind for a thousand miles. Instead, it was tens of thousands. Nor was it like them, who, after long periods of drinking the clear wind and eating the morning dew, needed to descend the mountain to experience the Mortal World, slay demons, and temper their Heart-Nature, but only to reach a higher level. These soldiers, however, were fighting with their lives to carve out a bright, clear day.
"This old man must have guessed correctly! The vertical eye between the brows of this Ninth Mountain Zhonglang General must be a Divine Ability of the eye, refining incense, profoundly mystical. Wherever it shines, it projects here," the old man in linen robes said with a deep gaze, then his tone sharpened, "It seems that several thousand miles away, this Ninth Mountain Zhonglang General, leading his Army, is engaged in a great battle with the demons from the Ten Thousand Mountains."
"Feiyi, Lushu, Qingque, Night Fox..." The old man in linen robes recognized these demons, which were almost extinct outside but were ubiquitous here, from the fleeting light and shadows. The more he looked, the more his brows furrowed. "These demons are different from those outside who constantly evolve through cultivation. Those can only be called Yao, but these, they inherently possess Legacy in their Bloodline, and are considered Demon. Each possesses strange Divine Abilities. In the same Realm, the Human Race martial Dao often falls into a disadvantage. This old man roughly senses that there are no less than four Dao Fruit Realm among them!"
Upon hearing his teacher's words, Zhao Quanzhen's chiseled face showed a tremor, and he said in a condensed voice, "Teacher, can these people win?"
He, Zhao Quanzhen, did not wish for these people to lose. At this moment, his Dantian couldn't help but rumble, and divine light sparkled in his eyes as he stared intently at the scene above, his Aura surging.
"That will depend on this Ninth Mountain Zhonglang General!"
"This old man can sense that this person's projected Aura is constantly rising, far beyond what you can achieve. Such a fierce general, who constantly walks on the edge of life and death, is hard to fathom!"
"He moved!"
At this time, several thousand miles away, at Weiyuan Pass, the majestic pass stretched endlessly.
Under the pitch-black night, flames soared to the sky, and intense fighting erupted, with the roars of demons echoing ceaselessly.
On the west city wall, a figure in green armor gleamed with cold light, a murderous intent flashing in his eyes. He drew his bow and shot directly at a Feiyi Demon Soldiers diving down, flapping its fleshy wings and charging straight through.
"Snap!"
The bowstring vibrated rapidly, and the iron arrow suddenly let out an air explosion, like a sudden clap of thunder. It streaked across with a dazzling fiery light, shooting towards the ferocious, white-eyed second-Realm Feiyi.
"Boom!"
The arrow light slammed into this Demon Soldiers, blasting off ominous red fur.
Then, a burst of fire enveloped this ugly bird.
"Xiao!"
This Demon Soldiers let out a sharp shriek, turning into a firebird, intending to crash into the city wall relentlessly. The next second, a saber light, white as a thin line, flashed through its middle, cutting it in half with a thud.
At the same time, it was clearly visible that on the entire city wall, rows of Black Armored Soldiers defended the battlements to the death. Below and above, ferocious demonic figures, densely packed, charged towards the city wall.
On the city wall, dense streams of light whistled into the air. Formation Flags broke through the Void Realm, like sharp arrows, constantly colliding with the charging demonic figures, piercing through and exploding one Demon Soldiers after another. Then, the Formation Flags arrayed and combined, forming three continuous barriers outside the entire city wall, blocking the charge of the Demon Army.
Then, as the messenger cavalry galloped along the city wall, conveying the commander's orders.
"Vanguard Camp, Bing Shang Ji Xia, Kan Li, Li Fire!"
"Left Flank Camp, Kui Sheng Zi Jiang, Dui Ze, Cold Ice!"
"Right Flank Camp..."
With each command, the Ninth Mountain Army on the city wall advanced in rows, pressing their hands to their Dantian, shouting in unison. Then, they recited incantations, activated their True Qi, and transformed their fingers into sword-fingers, pointing at their respective Formation Flags to activate them.
Instantly, the three Formation Flag defense lines buzzed loudly.
In the first flag Formation, flames whirled on each flag surface. As the Formation Flags, each about a meter in size, spun in the Void Realm, the flames rose with the wind, forming fireballs about three meters in size. In the next breath, they suddenly condensed, and a fire column, as thick as a bowl, shot out from the flagpoles, wildly firing up into the sky and down to the ground.
Those were the charging Demon Soldiers. Being too close, they had no time to defend and were swiftly engulfed by the flames when struck by the firelight.
As for those behind, they roared continuously, either dodging left and right, or spitting out various streams of light and Devilish Qi, resisting with a rustling sound.
And this was not all. The two Formation Flags behind them spun with a whirring sound, emitting streams of frosty white Qi that rushed into the drizzly night sky. Soon, thunder rumbled, and then, with a whooshing sound, the light rain turned into a torrential downpour, covering an area of three miles.
The heavy rain, falling on the demons or the ground, instantly transformed into frosty mist, solidifying into ice in a breath, rapidly spreading and freezing several miles into a frosty white expanse, halting the charging demons.
The sound of cracking ice quickly resounded. Demon Soldiers were about to break free, opening their foul-smelling mouths, their tongues flaring, roaring in anger and shock.
At this moment, the last flag Formation, as the Formation Flags surged, rolled out streams of earthy yellow Qi that soared into the sky, then were hurled out. The rolling earthy yellow Qi masses, in their flight, transformed into giant boulders three meters in size, stirring up air explosions as they thundered forth.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The falling rocks roared, shattering the ice sculptures in the sky with a crash. On the ground, they also smashed down, creating dense craters. Weaker demons were directly crushed into meat paste.
With all three Formations firing simultaneously, hundreds of demons were killed or wounded, clearing out a wave in front. But very quickly, the densely packed demonic figures behind, just like before, swiftly filled the gap during the Formation's buffer period, charging forward and slamming violently against the barrier.
Soon, the first barrier was breached by the demons, creating holes. Some demons rushed in, preparing to break the second.
Immediately, on the city wall, sharp whistles sounded. A row of soldiers moved from back to front, their iron armor clanking as they collided. Wielding sabers and axes, they each slapped on two talismans, one gold and one green. Instantly, a green light appeared on these armored soldiers, sinking into their feet, and a golden light floated on their bodies.
One was a "Vajra Talisman," the other a "Divine Speed Talisman." These were basic talismans issued by the commander, used to increase defense and speed. Then, these saber and axe wielders shouted in unison, leaped down from the city wall, and then formed two lines. Using the barrier as a stronghold, they slashed at the demons that had charged into the flag Formation.
With Divine Speed underfoot, they moved among the demons, Saber Qi sweeping, white Qi filling the Void Realm, intertwining to form a meat grinder, splattering flesh and blood.
When encountering tough-skinned, thick-fleshed demons, like tanks, fearlessly ramming the barrier, rows of Black Armored Soldiers with golden light on their bodies slammed into them fiercely.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Humans and demons flew backward, then continued to charge forward and fight, over and over, the battle locked in a stalemate.
Suddenly, a piercing shriek came from the sky, followed by green light feathers, along with sparkling and dazzling Demon Blood, scattering down.
In the night sky, a dazzling silver light streaked across. A huge green peacock's body exploded, and its shattered flesh, spilling blood, descended like a small mountain.
Immediately after, the silver light flew back, and with a "clang," it landed in the hand of a golden-armored giant.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
Chen Yuan spun his Three-Pointed, Double-Edged Spear backward. The spear tip gleamed with cold light, angled downward, with drops of crimson blood falling from it.
At this moment, his glabella was burning hot. The golden slit between his brows had suddenly split open, and a golden vertical eye had appeared.
At this time, a series of numbers rapidly jumped in the flowing light in his eyes.
[Dharma Eye] 33% 41% 52%
In the Formless Realm, streams of incense frantically poured into his glabella. This sudden influx of incense made him realize that this change must be related to Mr. Gongsun, the novelist.
However, he had no time to investigate these matters now.
The brilliant golden vertical eye between his brows, as if infused with an endless supply of energy, emitted a blazing golden light, illuminating the pitch-black night.
In the Void Realm, five Dao Fruit Realm demons were still lurking!
Just now, six Dao Fruit Realm demons from the Six Mountains, along with their Demon Soldiers, surged forth and attacked Weiyuan Pass.
Excluding the Qingque clan demon he had just killed, five remained.
Among the six Dao Fruit Realm demons, three were at the first layer of the Dao Fruit Realm, two at the second layer, and one had already entered the third layer, having nurtured a Demon Embryo.
Chen Yuan's eyes blazed with golden light. At this moment, in the Void Realm not far away, a ferocious "human" figure with three heads and dark golden triangular pupils stared intently at him, then let out a wild roar, and its demonic shadow rapidly expanded.
Seeing this, the flowing light in Chen Yuan's eyes shifted.
