413: Three people from Wudao Mountain break through the formation! (4K monthly ticket request)
"Roar!"
"Screech!"
Amidst the snowy night, a white pillar of light shone like a dazzling galaxy. At the array's entrance, countless demons roared excitedly, pouring out from the teleportation array. The dense demonic shadows were filled with various kinds of demons.
There were strange fish, Chi Ru, resembling ghosts, with serrated mouths, two long whiskers on their chins, and several fiery red poisonous spines on their bronze heads. Two to three zhang in size, they manipulated waves, swimming through the Void Realm.
There were Mie Meng Birds, five zhang long, with green feathers, red tails, four claws, short and sharp forelimbs, and sturdy hind limbs. Their wings tore through the wind and snow, and around their bodies, streaks of green wind blades whistled across the sky.
There were also Jue Duan, shaped like red sheep, bathed in fire, with crimson pupils, and a sharp horn on their heads; Gou Snakes, covered in purple scales, with bamboo-like bodies, ferocious horns, sharp spines on their backs, and a hook on their tails; and Jungle Cong, with dog-like bodies, sharp teeth, and six legs.
They were extremely excited, stepping from the Ten Thousand Mountains, which was like a prison, onto the Human Race battlefield. They had heard there was an endless supply of blood food here. Each one let out excited roars, a chaotic dance of demons.
A Gou Snake from the Heavenly Gate, seventeen to eighteen zhang long, suddenly stopped amidst the surging horde of demons. It raised its ferocious head, and its reddish-green, triangular eyes, as large as millstones, looked into the pitch-black night sky. There, cold stars flickered and rapidly approached, accompanied by increasingly sharp whistling sounds.
This sound and the air currents were covered by the restless roars in the world.
"Hiss!"
The snake flicked its purple tongue, trembling rapidly in the air, emitting a sharp hiss. At the same time, the webs on its neck spread open, and the sharp spines on its back stood erect, emitting a chilling light. Then, the snake opened its mouth and spat out a stream of purple fire.
Meanwhile, in the night sky, the cold stars rubbed against the air, creating dazzling streaks of fire, like comets, carrying intense light, descending with lightning speed into the dark demonic shadows in the icy, snowy world below.
One of them, surprisingly, landed in the area where this Gou Snake was located!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"..."
Blazing fire, along with violent explosions, instantly engulfed swathes of demonic shadows, each one affecting an area of a hundred meters.
The demons that were directly hit were instantly smashed into meat paste. As the fire exploded, it also tore apart the nearby demons, turning them into streaks of flowing fire, splashing away.
At the center of the exploding fire, a massive green stone sphere, about ten zhang in diameter, had turtle-shell-like cracks on its surface, from which bursts of flames spewed out.
After the stone sphere smashed to the ground, it spun wildly, charging directly towards the array's entrance, seemingly unstoppable in its surging might. It crushed and sent flying the ferocious demons surging along its path, rolling out a fiery red path.
In just three or four breaths, it charged a hundred zhang, plunging into the enemy ranks.
There were eight such stone spheres in total.
The horde of demons exiting the array was thrown into chaos by the sudden attack, emitting various sharp or enraged roars.
Soon, streaks of fierce light roared out.
A Mie Meng Bird, thirteen to fourteen zhang long, its eyes blazing with green light, let out a sharp cry and swooped down from the wind and snow like a flash of lightning. Behind it, a pair of strong, powerful claws, sharp as cold knives, extended out and fiercely gripped one of the stone spheres that was wantonly charging through the demon horde.
"Bang!"
A muffled thud.
The stone sphere, under the attack of the demon bird's sharp claws, did not crack. Instead, the blazing fire intensified, and it rumbled and trembled. A pair of green stone hands suddenly grabbed out from within, seizing the demon bird's sharp claws.
Then, with a "kuala-la" sound of stone friction, a colossal green stone giant transformed out of the stone sphere, revealing a powerful Tian Guan Dao Soldier aura. Its large eyes, flickering with fire, looked up, staring intently at the demon bird, which was shaking its wings violently and letting out sharp cries.
The Mie Meng Bird, its sharp claws gripped by the stone giant's steel-like hands, showed a hint of panic in its beast eyes, letting out a shriek. It desperately flapped its wings, trying to break free, and at the same time, its short foreclaws swung out ten sharp green rays, striking towards the giant's head.
The green stone giant's cold, emotionless eyes flickered with flames, then it opened its mouth and spat out a column of crimson fire. The blazing flames engulfed the incoming green rays and simultaneously swept towards the demon bird.
The demon bird was greatly alarmed. Its pair of green wings, with a metallic luster, stopped vibrating and wrapped around its body, blocking the blazing fire.
However, while these wings blocked the fire, the force resisting the giant's large hands disappeared. The green stone giant directly tore its hands outwards.
"Screech!"
A piercing, metal-rending shriek instantly rang out.
Green feathers scattered, and demon blood splattered. The bird was directly torn apart by the giant's hands, then violently smashed to the ground, and a large foot directly stomped it into a bloody mess.
Then, the giant transformed into a streak of fire and charged directly towards the array's entrance. But soon, after a brief disturbance, it was engulfed by the surging demons that had reacted.
At the same time, the other stone giants, glowing with fire, also encountered resistance.
In the darkness, the dense demonic shadows let out terrifying roars, like waves, surging towards these giants with the aura of Tian Guan Dao Soldier. The sight was truly terrifying.
In just a dozen breaths, the blazing fire was submerged by the surging Devilish Qi, and soon only tiny flickers of fire could be seen.
And in this brief chaos, an aura swiftly moved through the chaotic charge of demons, heading towards the array's entrance.
It was a Jungle Cong, its six legs sprinting, a human-like light flashing in its eyes. In the chaos, it did not attract the attention of the other demons.
However, it stopped halfway, because there was no more disturbance ahead. If it continued to advance, it would be "advancing against the current," which would be very conspicuous and expose itself.
This demon was Zhao Quanzhen, transformed.
His method of charging the array was not complicated: create chaos, attract attention, and then fish in troubled waters.
This was the maximum distance he could achieve by creating his own opportunity. Next...
And in the Southwest, where he had just disappeared, two figures, hidden in the shadows, materialized. They were Ling Yunzi, Zhao Quanzhen's teacher, and Senior Martial Uncle Yang Shan.
"Quanzhen has entered the fray at the precise moment. Now it's time for us two old fellows to make a move!"
Senior Martial Uncle Yang Shan raised his head, his eyes looking at the white galaxy in the sky, then slowly lowered his gaze, looking at the distant demons like a tide. As snowflakes scattered, dazzling cold stars were reflected in his eyes.
"Hmm, Quanzhen just made his move. Junior Brother, I have already sensed three powerful auras probing in all directions within that great array. There should be three Great Demons here. These beasts seem to have gotten intelligence and are guarding it from inside. We Senior and Junior Brothers will make a big fuss and lure these beasts out. If we cannot defeat them, we will lead them away, striving to buy Quanzhen more time." Ling Yunzi stroked his beard, his brows slightly furrowed, carefully sensing and pondering.
"Three of them? No matter!" Yang Shan waved his hand, then divine light surged in his eyes, "Let's do it!"
With that, this Eight Mountain Elder of Wudao Mountain floated up from the ruins, his eyes piercing through the wind and snow with a cold light, spanning several miles of Void Realm. He gently raised his hands and uttered four words, "Mountain Collapse, Earth Split!"
As these words fell, the earth beneath his feet in the ruins let out a deafening roar. Then, "Rumble!" The sky shook and the earth trembled, and two earthen mountains, over a hundred zhang tall, rose from the ground. The earthen mountains were still covered with thick ice and snow.
And on the ground, a wide black crack exploded with a roar, and then rapidly fractured towards the surging demonic shadows ahead.
Then, Yang Shan shook his hands, and the two hundred-zhang mountains soared into the sky, carrying terrifying pressure, roaring directly towards the horde of demons that sensed the immense power, causing the Void Realm to tremble.
In the darkness, the tide-like demonic shadows roaring in the Southwest, sensing the shaking of the sky and earth behind them, suddenly paused their movements. Then, pairs of blood-red or reddish-green demonic eyes looked back in astonishment.
They saw the earth rapidly cracking towards their direction, and two massive, sky-obscuring black shadows roaring through the sky.
Then, screams of agony erupted.
The ground cracked into huge fissures, spreading out like a spider web. The ground collapsed with immense force, and demons fell into the rising flames of the abyss along with the collapsing earth.
Immediately after, two overwhelming, colossal black shadows plummeted down, making earth-shattering noises.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The two great mountains crashed down like the giant hammers of mountain gods, smashing dozens of demons into meat paste with each strike. They also caused large-scale ground collapses, affecting an even larger area, and demons fell, stirring up wails.
The great mountains continued to swing, continuing to smash forward, causing another large area of death and injury.
Such a terrifying sight made the originally excited and ferocious demon horde shriek in horror, fleeing in all directions towards the great array in the center of the city.
In the Southwest, outside the great array, the earth cracked, stretching for several miles horizontally and vertically. Blazing earth fire surged out from within, and the scorching temperature radiated outwards. Large areas of the ground collapsed, directly sealing off the exit of this great array.
The two great mountains, furthermore, suppressed and crushed, killing a large number.
The demons that had been pouring out were also driven back into the great array by this trend, and the situation became chaotic.
And in the chaotic demon horde, a six-legged Jungle Cong also followed the retreating demons, surging towards the great array's exit.
And it was at this moment, from within the dark light array, an angry roar erupted, like a clap of thunder.
"Human Race Martial Armory!"
Immediately after, a blazing yellow demonic light shot out from the exit of that great array. With a "boom," dust flew, and it directly crashed into a mountain that was about to fall, then swiftly flew to another one on the side. With a "clang," it bounced the other one away as well.
Then, the demonic light flew back. In the air above the array's exit, a ball of purple Devilish Qi spontaneously arose, then swiftly swept up with the wind. In a breath, a pair of massive purple triangular demonic eyes lit up from within.
The yellow demonic light flew to this ball of purple mist. Suddenly, two large hands covered in purple, ferocious scales stretched out from the Devilish Qi and slammed together in the middle, seizing the yellow demonic light.
"Ding!"
With a sharp tremor of metal, the demonic light rapidly contracted, instantly transforming into a gleaming yellow ring!
At this moment, the purple mist completely condensed, revealing a demon ten zhang tall, covered in purple scales, with a human face and red cheeks, and ferocious horns on its head!
A Great Demon!
This Great Demon's pair of purple demonic eyes looked coldly into the night sky. Its throat moved, and just as it was about to speak, two streaks of white silk wrapped around the bounced-away mountains, then flung them, directly smashing them towards this demon.
They were, surprisingly, two Flying Sleeves!
"Hmph!"
This Great Demon snorted, and two white streams of air shot out from its nostrils. The yellow golden ring it held trembled and expanded, transforming into a stack of golden chisels. Then, it peeled them off layer by layer with one hand.
Streaks of golden chisels turned into streams of light, shooting and blasting towards the two Flying Sleeves that were wrapped around the mountains, causing loud "clang-clang-clang" noises. The earthen mountains were constantly chipped down to a size of about ten zhang, but the Flying Sleeves' momentum did not diminish, and they swiftly flew towards the opposite side.
Seeing this, the purple-eyed Great Demon's pupils flared in anger. Its demonic claw threw the golden chisels in its hand out again. They suddenly expanded against the wind, then blurred in the Void Realm.
When they reappeared, they had actually confined the two Flying Sleeves together, and then suddenly tightened!
The purple-eyed Great Demon, seeing this, a hint of triumph flickered in its cold pupils. Just then, a streak of light suddenly shot out from within the Flying Sleeves, swiftly slashing towards the Great Demon!
Within that streak of light was a white-haired old man, his gaze brilliant, holding a long sword, as graceful as a startled swan, as ethereal as an immortal.
A hundred zhang distance, gone in an instant!
The purple-eyed Great Demon's expression immediately turned to shock and anger, "There's more!"
Then it opened its large mouth, and a purple tongue shot out, its surface gleaming with a metallic luster, transforming into a sword light that directly met the sword's edge that had flown close!
"Ding!"
A sharp clang of metal striking metal.
Ling Yunzi's Qingyun Sword clashed with the purple-eyed Great Demon's purple tongue-sword.
Ling Yunzi, with his other hand, formed a sword-finger incantation, and uttered "Go!" Immediately, his Qingyun Sword's light intensified, actually piercing directly into it.
The purple-eyed Great Demon immediately let out a painful roar, going mad. Its body glowed intensely with purple light, and then a colossal creature flew out from within. It looked like a flying centipede, but was actually a purple Gou Snake, over a hundred zhang long, with a triangular snake head. The snake tongue protruding from its mouth was impaled by a small green sword. It let out a roaring shriek of pain, and then a black long hook from its snake tail flew over, whistling through the air, turning into an afterimage, and stabbing towards Ling Yunzi.
The hook on the snake's tail contained potent venom. Even if a Human Race Martial Armory's Physical Body was pierced, their Physical Body would rapidly weaken in a very short time.
This snake was named for that very reason!
And Ling Yunzi's figure was ethereal, rapidly retreating, dodging the sharp hook. At the same time, he formed a sword-finger incantation, held it to his chest, and chanted the sword art.
The Qingyun Sword, impaled in the Gou Snake Great Demon's tongue, let out a clear sword cry, then with a "whoosh," it cut off half of the tongue. Then, the sword body shot up into the sky with a "whoosh," its green light greatly intensifying, and the sword's shadow split into sixteen sword lights, suddenly diving down, "whoosh-whoosh-whoosh" slashing towards this demon.
Seeing this, the Gou Snake retracted its tail hook and swept upwards horizontally. A series of clanging sounds erupted, sweeping away the sword lights.
And it was at this moment, the two Flying Sleeves shook off the golden ring, and two flesh-colored large hands directly reached out from within, taking advantage of this gap, and directly imprinted themselves on the great snake's body.
"Bang! Bang!"
The Gou Snake's massive body was directly sent flying by the two Flying Sleeve hands, tumbling loudly in the Void Realm.
Seizing the opportunity, Ling Yunzi's hands transformed, continuously forming sword arts. The Qingyun Sword let out a sharp sword cry, rapidly expanding to a massive size of thirteen to fourteen zhang. Its sword light shot out, stirring up wind and thunder, and slashed directly towards the Great Demon's vital point, its momentum terrifying.
Just as it was about to fly over and strike, the Wind and Thunder Flying Sword suddenly paused in the Void Realm, and a sharp cry followed.
Suddenly, two more tall demonic figures appeared before the massive sword light. One demon stretched out a hand, and together they blocked the Wind and Thunder Sword Light!
Clearly visible were one with a bird's beak and green feathers, and another with a single horn on its head, red skin, and bathed in fire;
Two more Great Demons appeared!
A Great Demon of the Mie Meng Bird clan, and a Great Demon of the Jue Duan clan!
These two Great Demons simultaneously clapped their palms, shaking off the Wind and Thunder Sword Light. Then, their cold demonic eyes looked at Ling Yunzi, and then at the Void Realm behind where the two Flying Sleeve hands had swiftly retracted.
Soon, a figure in a black gauze robe, with white inner clothing, holding a jade Ruyi scepter, stepped through the Void Realm, arriving nearby in a few steps.
At that moment, one of the Mie Meng Bird Great Demons opened its sharp bird beak, its green pupils swirling with ferocity,
"Two Human Race Martial Armory have actually come."
"According to intelligence from our clan, your frontline Chuanzhong Pass only has two Wu Zang guarding it. You are not those two. How dare you cause trouble in our Saint Race's territory? It seems we need to act quickly. Once the main army is assembled, we will march north and flatten Jiannan Road."
Yang Shan looked at these two beasts, his brows furrowed in anger. He directly offered the jade Ruyi scepter in his hand towards the two Great Demons and immediately made his move, "Your territory? Ridiculous! After I, this Mountain Elder, kill you few beasts, I will then go back and gather my friends from the various mountain sects and blessed lands, and kill our way into your lair!"
"Hmph!" (End of Chapter)
