289: The demon soldiers and demons will have heavy snowfall (asking for monthly tickets)
“Vermilion Bird!”
“Don’t be rude.”
Vermilion Bird!
The silver-masked man addressed the woman behind him in this manner.
The woman was dressed in a red feathered robe and wore a white mask over her face. Although her exact features were hidden, her eyes burned with anger and an enduring resentment.
Back then, in the battle of Baidi City, of the Feixian Sect’s so-called Four Symbols Revered Ones, Chen Yuan killed three, and one managed to escape.
This woman before him was precisely the Vermilion Bird who had fled like a stray dog back then!
What a small world!
She never expected that the person she had been “yearning” to take revenge on actually possessed something a Revered One desired. And these people present were planning to kill him, which was why her emotions fluctuated so violently.
And the “Revered One” she spoke of was precisely the one who, with a casual move, had set them on the path of Human Demons.
She finally understood this person’s identity: he was from a mysterious organization called “Place of becoming a Saint.” From the Revered One’s fragmented descriptions, the Place of becoming a Saint was filled with utterly insane individuals, even those who acted Heaven-Defying.
Some pursued the Human Demon path, combining human martial Dao talent with the powerful Bloodline and long lifespan of Demon Soldiers, forging a unique path!
Some buried themselves in geomantic locations where Yin and Yang converged in the abyss, killing their own bodies, perceiving their bodies constantly decaying, and then continuously circulating various secret arts to stimulate flesh and blood Rebirth, repeating this process to achieve the Indestructible Body, a body that myriad methods could not wear down.
Others abandoned their physical bodies, embarking on the Spirit Refining path, seeking a way to the legendary Nine Nether, and were so insane as to use the lives of countless city dwellers to simulate and create eighteen layers of Hell, establishing an evil force called Nine Nether!
From these fragmented descriptions, it was clear that the people in this Place of becoming a Saint were all lunatics, cultivating Heaven-Defying paths that were heart-stoppingly terrifying.
And the man with the silver mask was one of them, cultivating the Dao of Human Demons. His “casual creation” back then had led to the Feixian chaos that plagued the area outside Baidi Gate for several years, affecting millions and causing countless deaths and injuries.
At this moment, the silver-masked man spoke softly.
The resentment flickering in the Vermilion Bird’s pupils quickly receded, replaced by awe.
“Yes!”
At this, the silver-masked Human Demon’s gaze slowly swept over the few Old Monsters, and he chuckled softly,
“The Qian family head should be correct.”
“You all understand.”
“This Zhonglang General’s cultivation speed is quite incredible. Advancing from Body Profound all the way to Wu Zang in a short period suggests that he must have, by chance, obtained a Qi Luck Spiritual Root earlier, which explains this rapid progress.”
“This shows the profoundness of such heavenly treasures.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of everyone present couldn’t help but turn fervent. That Ninth Mountain Zhonglang General’s sudden rise must have been due to this item.
If they obtained it, wouldn’t it be…
However, a cold snort sounded.
“Stop with the nonsense.”
It was just You Sect Leader of the Han Shan Sect, somewhat impatient, his eyes narrowed,
“When do we make our move?”
“Before we act, shouldn’t we establish some rules? After killing that person and obtaining the item, how should it be divided?”
This You Sect Leader was already eager to join forces to kill and seize the treasure, even thinking about how to divide the spoils.
The others’ eyes widened.
They were preparing to act.
The black-robed Wu Zang, Wang Family Old Monster, and the silver-masked Human Demon looked at Qian family head Qian Sanjin.
Qian Sanjin’s face tightened under the gaze of several Wu Zang, but his eyes quickly turned ruthless. He slapped the armrest, abruptly stood up, and was about to speak, his throat bobbing.
Just then, within the hidden hall nestled in the mountain, a chillingly cold voice suddenly echoed.
“So, you’re here!”
As the voice sounded, a terrifyingly sharp Qi instantly appeared, swiftly assaulting the hidden hall.
The four Wu Zang reacted immediately, their bodies rapidly transforming into streaks of light.
The faces of the other families’ Heavenly Gate experts changed drastically, exclamations rising as they scrambled up.
Meanwhile, from the outside, a black-red great spear, appearing like rolling magma within and about twenty zhang in size, plummeted from the sky directly towards the main peak in the middle of Five Treasures Mountain. Brilliant firelight dyed the night red.
On that main peak, layers of colorful Restrictions reacted, but were shattered by the spear’s thunderous impact.
“Boom!”
A deafening explosion.
The great spear directly pierced into the Qian family’s main peak, then violently shook.
In an instant, the mountain collapsed, a tremendous roar echoing with immense force.
As the rocks shattered, streaks of light shot out from the mountain, accompanied by exclamations and screams.
Just then, high in the sky, a vertical eye opened in the night, radiating brilliant divine light. A golden beam of light suddenly shot out, descending from the heavens, then enveloping the main peak.
The streaks of light that shot out slammed into the golden light screen with thuds, and were abruptly bounced back.
These figures stood firm, some bleeding profusely, half their bodies almost severed, emitting cries of pain. Others had grim expressions, looking around in alarm.
Suddenly, a great sun pierced through the clouds and descended, illuminating Five Treasures Mountain as bright as day. A silver-armored figure, radiating a chilling aura, stepped through the Void Realm, immense pressure rolling down!
When these people clearly saw the newcomer, their expressions instantly changed drastically.
“Oh no.”
“It’s Ninth Zhonglang!”
Some Heavenly Gate experts from various families, seeing this Zhonglang General arrive so promptly, and recalling his recent methods, thought the Qian family had defected to him, releasing information to deliberately lure them over and then capture them all. They immediately glared in anger.
“Qian Sanjin, you deserve to die! It’s you, you’ve harmed us all!”
Some, due to their fear of Chen Yuan, coupled with their injuries and the deaths of their people, became enraged. They shouted and attacked, unleashing Divine Ability towards the Qian family’s Heavenly Gate, especially Qian Sanjin.
This triggered a chain reaction.
Wang Family Old Monster and You Sect Leader of the Han Shan Sect also had grim expressions, recalling how Qian Sanjin had refused to disclose the source of the intelligence earlier.
It was highly possible that the Qian family had colluded with this Ninth Zhonglang.
Qian Sanjin’s face was uglier than if he had eaten excrement. Facing several streaks of light, he frantically defended himself, hastily spitting out a shimmering golden copper coin to protect himself, blocking several attacks.
However, in the next second, a greenish-gray large palm directly slammed onto the golden copper coin, which had grown larger with the wind, sending it flying violently to crash against the golden light screen.
“How dare you play tricks on this Sect Leader.” With an angry snort, You Sect Leader also made his move.
“Pfft!”
Qian Sanjin’s internal organs convulsed with sharp pain, and he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. His hair ornament fell off, leaving his hair disheveled.
“Stop, it’s not me!”
His eyes burned with rage. These fools didn’t give him a chance to speak. He hissed, and then, as if to prove his innocence, he clutched his chest, looked up wretchedly at the dazzling figure in the sky, his teeth stained with blood, almost grinding them in hatred.
“Ninth Zhonglang, you are going too far! You have targeted my Qian family repeatedly; you owe us an explanation.”
“You invited these people to kill this This General, and that’s not enough?” From above, Chen Yuan looked down from his superior position, his gaze sweeping over the two masked figures, a man and a woman, his pupils chilling.
“How did you know?” Although the deed was done, Qian Sanjin’s expression still changed slightly.
“Daoist,” Chen Yuan murmured softly.
Soon, a figure appeared beside Chen Yuan.
It was Li Guanyi, Daoist Li!
As soon as Daoist Li appeared, You Sect Leader of the Han Shan Sect showed a hint of surprise. Daoist Li bowed to him, “Senior You.”
The other party’s pupils instantly flared with annoyance, “Shut up! Didn’t this Sect Leader seal you away?”
Daoist Li said nothing, merely raising an eyebrow at the other party, giving the impression of a knowing glance.
Chen Yuan, witnessing this from the side, a smile flickered in his cold pupils.
He hadn’t taught the Daoist how to do that.
He hadn’t expected the usually meticulous Daoist to have some tricks up his sleeve.
Watching these people squabble like dogs was quite amusing.
At this, several families exploded, looking towards the Han Shan Sect’s Old Sect Leader with shock and anger.
Wang Family Old Monster, who had been close to him, quickly distanced himself, his face wary.
Old Monster You’s face turned black with rage, his cold gaze fixed on Li Guanyi, “You Daoist…”
Before he could finish, he was interrupted.
“You Sect Leader, good, good, I, Qian, was blind!” Qian Sanjin, who had been injured by Old Monster You, finally reacted, furious and exasperated. His intense anger made him throw caution to the wind. He looked up and shouted hoarsely,
“Ninth Zhonglang, today there are three Wu Zang Seniors here, and six Heavenly Gate families. You act against the Dao, wantonly oppressing and harming various families. My Qian family will lead the rebellion against you today!”
“I ask all of you to bear witness!”
He had already seen streaks of light rapidly approaching from a distance. He spoke with righteous indignation, believing that if Chen Yuan dared to openly attack the Qian family, other families who were still on the fence would feel a sense of shared sorrow and align their interests with them.
He did not know that as those streaks of light swiftly approached, the rumbling sound of hooves followed closely behind.
In the distance, a loud shout echoed through the night sky.
“Qian family traitors, colluding with Demon Soldiers! The Ninth Mountain is ordered to capture you!”
“Resist, and be annihilated!”
Below Five Treasures Mountain, lights flickered on, rapidly spreading to the foot of Ninth Mountain. Three torrents of armored troops advanced abreast from three main streets.
The Ninth Mountain Army had arrived!
“Colluding with Demon Soldiers?”
Qian Sanjin saw the Ninth Mountain Army approaching, realizing they intended to wipe out his Qian family, and his voice became sharp with fury.
“Chen Yuan, you’ve exhausted every means to persecute the Qian family. Where are the Demon Soldiers in my Qian family? Do you think everyone is blind?”
Chen Yuan shifted his gaze, his tone growing cold.
“There weren’t any before, but now there are.”
His golden, lacquer-like, python-like pupils turned to one side, his gaze fixed on two masked figures.
A man and a woman.
He had never expected to encounter old “acquaintances” here.
Even though the other party had used some sophisticated spell to conceal the foul aura on their bodies, under Chen Yuan’s Dharma Eye Divine Ability, which had already reached its peak, they had nowhere to hide.
Human Demons!
One of them was even the one who had escaped from him back then.
The golden light in his eyes suddenly intensified.
Under Chen Yuan’s Dharma Eye, the resentment in the Vermilion Bird’s eyes turned into a bone-deep fear. She felt as if her entire body was about to explode.
The other party recognized her!
The next second,
A sharp, piercing shriek startled the sky. The woman’s body uncontrollably burst into blazing fire, and her vibrant, fiery red feathers unfurled like a peacock’s tail. In a breath, a twenty-zhang-tall fiery peacock, flapping its wings, was forced to reveal its form, Devilish Qi surging.
And the silver-masked man, under the illumination of Chen Yuan’s Dharma Eye, had something moving like a snake beneath his clothes, closely followed by…
“Hiss!”
“Hiss!”
“Hiss!”
Pale golden scales, one after another, tore through his outer clothing and emerged, with wisps of black Devilish Qi escaping.
But the pupils beneath his silver mask remained calm, even smiling, as he spoke to Chen Yuan.
“Heh heh, I heard Vermilion Bird say you have a powerful eye ability. It seems to be your third eye between your brows. I’m interested in that eye of yours, and even more interested in the Qi Luck Spiritual Root on your body.”
As he finished speaking, the man threw back his head and let out an earth-shattering roar. Monstrous Devilish Qi surged, rapidly expanding and engulfing him.
Following closely, a pair of gigantic, pale golden claws suddenly extended from the demonic cloud, grabbing at the golden light screen. The light screen trembled violently, and the sharp claws deeply embedded themselves, then tore outwards, ripping the golden light screen apart.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
A humanoid demon, covered in pale golden Dragon scales, with a single horn on its head and black eyes with golden pupils, stepped out from within, fifty to sixty zhang tall.
Terrifying demonic might rolled down!
As these two revealed their demonic forms, everyone else’s expressions changed.
“Wucang Great Demon?” Someone gasped in horror. Seeing the golden light screen broken, they instinctively retreated.
“It’s a Human Demon!”
Wang Family Old Monster’s expression was solemn, and he also took a step back. He had seen such beings in the Central Plains. These people were traitors to the Human Race, rejected by the world. The other black-robed Wu Zang remained unmoved.
The silver-faced, single-horned Human Demon sensed their retreat and let out a piercing laugh,
“If you don’t kill him today, they will kill each of you one by one. You still want to retreat?”
“Why not kill him with me? You can still get a share!”
“Yes, kill him! It’s just him and his Ninth Mountain Army. There are so many of us.” Qian Sanjin’s voice turned vicious. His Qian family had no way out.
Saying this, his voice echoed loudly over Five Treasures Mountain,
“Qian family disciples, follow this Family head and fight to the death!”
Immediately, the originally panicked Qian family members in the mountain began to shout.
Chen Yuan watched all of this, his gaze turning fierce. They were all scoundrels.
Then he raised his hand, and the Void Realm rumbled. A towering greenish-golden nine-story small tower flew out from his hand, growing larger with the wind.
The Demon Subduing Pagoda radiated dazzling light between heaven and earth, and the Void Realm rumbled and trembled, like a small mountain roaring and rotating.
Following closely, a fierce wind suddenly rose between heaven and earth, accompanied by demonic roars that made everyone tremble.
It was clearly visible that on the five levels of the thirty-six mountain Demon-Subduing Tower, the hideous demonic reliefs had come to life.
Following closely, black Devilish Qi surged from the tower, and demonic figures emerged from the reliefs, filling the sky with demonic clouds, emitting terrifying roars, numbering in the hundreds and thousands.
What made the eyes of those present twitch was that on the fifth level of the tower, there were six hideous and distinct Demon Soldiers.
When these six Demon Soldiers emerged, a fierce aura belonging to the Bloodline Legacy of ancient Vicious Beasts permeated the Void Realm, causing the entire Five Treasures Mountain to tremble, and finally making the Wu Zang Human Demon with Dragon scales and a human body twitch his eyelids.
Feiyi, Bingxie, Heavenly Dog, Gǔdiāo…
The remnant imprints of the six Wu Zang Ten Fiends, even as remnant souls, still possessed monstrous power!
They were true Great Demon Soldiers in their lifetimes!
Their innate fierce power was incomparable to Human Demons who absorbed Demon Soldiers’ Bloodline.
“Kill!”
Chen Yuan let out a cold shout.
The six Wu Zang Vicious Beast remnant souls, leading hundreds of thousands of Demon Soldiers and Demon This Generals, charged towards Five Treasures Mountain.
The scene caused the heavens and earth to change color, immediately eliciting cries and screams.
It also made those who had been hiding in Jinguancheng and had not experienced the terror of the Demon Battlefield feel a chilling fear.
Just as Chen Yuan was commanding the Demon Soldiers and Demon Generals’ remnant souls to slaughter, at this moment, between heaven and earth, above the firmament, snowflakes drifted down.
In the Jiazi year, Yinchou day, at the hour of Zi, it was the height of midsummer, yet heavy snow fell!
