Chapter 420 A Battle That Cannot Be LostThe disappearance of Taotie and Pegasus caused the extraordinary creatures and secluded sects in the territory to focus their attention on the Trinity Sect in southern Fujian. Only there was peace and tranquility, and there was no sign of the sect moving. Rumors from the North claimed that the tripartite alliance wanted to establish supreme hegemony and capture the demon kings of various places alive, enslaving them, or directly killing them step by step. Even the human forces with roots in the secret realm were their targets. In just one day, the storm swept through violently. Except for the Feixian Sect, Duchen Sect, Kunlun Ancient Sect, and Penglai Island, which were deeply mired in the quagmire of war and had no time to pay attention, the other sects all made some unusual movements, weighing whether to wait for an opportunity to take action and eliminate this disaster in advance. Most sects know the origin of the Trinity Sect, and that it was destroyed 1,700 years ago. The reappearance of the Trinity Sect in the mortal world after a long time made them extremely wary, and they conceded that it might be the main lineage left over from the past. Also, due to the Demon Lord's recent horrific battle record, a group of master-level masters are almost undecided. Thousands of years ago in the ancient times, this kind of behavior of forming an alliance with monsters was despised by all factions. Even if they were destroyed, no one would say a word against it. But now, the heads of the major sects who inherited the major Taoist traditions neither have the powerful cultivation of their ancestors and sages, nor the iron-blooded courage to kill any demon they see, including those who collude with them. Finally, some people couldn't sit still anymore and decided to go south to find out what was going on. Among them are the 'Fangzhang Academy' which is said to have mastered three thousand magic techniques and is as famous as Penglai; the 'Yaochi Yinque' which is good at music and the art of change, and can play the piano and strings to display great magical powers to split mountains and shatter seas; and the 'Jietianmen' which has been slaying demons and monsters and specializing in swordsmanship since four thousand years ago.
Not only humans, but even some demon kings who were trying to track the Taotie and Pegasus came along. June 9. In the early morning, a war broke out at the Sanyi clan site in the coastal area of southern Fujian Province. Two demon kings from the edge of the northern border and the demon king of Xuefeng Mountain adjacent to Wushan saw the most horrifying scene in their lives. In the vast sea of clouds and deep sky, the bright moon reflected several huge dark shadows, among which were Taotie, two Pegasus, and a pitch-black dragon. On top of the dragon's head, there stood a slender figure. The man had flying black hair, cold eyes, and a dark red sword in his hand. Endless murderous energy burst out of his body. Compared to the four extraordinary creatures, he was undoubtedly the most powerful one. "Boom!!!" There was no unnecessary conversation. The moment the two sides met, a life-and-death battle broke out. All kinds of magical powers and killing moves were used without restraint. At one point, the battle was so fierce that the sky was dark and the deafening roar resounded for hundreds of kilometers. Yao Wang, Yue Min and Yue Li were responsible for restraining and interfering, while the second real body rushed over in an instant. Those extraordinary creatures that attacked had no idea that the Demon Lord was still alive, and they had no exact understanding of his strength. They only judged that he was at a similar level to the Demon Kings. However, by the time they reacted to the thousand-foot sword light sweeping over, it was too late. They were severely injured by the blow, and large pieces of flesh were cut through with unstoppable force. The skin that could withstand a nuclear explosion became as fragile as tender tofu under the cold edge of the sword. "Pfft!!!" "Roar!!!" After a moment, the wails and roars came to an abrupt end. One after another, huge beasts fell from the void, covered in wounds and without any breath. They smashed the ground, causing it to collapse, and their blood stained the soil like rivers. This battle ended very quickly. The victorious demon kings witnessed the combat power of the second true body throughout the whole process, which was arguably the best in Kyushu and dominated both the human and demon camps. They were so excited that they couldn't help but roar loudly, shaking the sky. They no longer restrained any of their desires and ambitions, and pounced directly on several mountain-like corpses, biting them madly and feasting on them. A thousand kilometers away, the three heads of Fangzhang Shuyuan, Yaochi Yinque and Jietianmen turned into streams of light and swept across the boundless land. The closer they got to the end of the horizon, the stronger the chaotic and brutal demonic energy became, almost to the point where their faces became solemn. There were as many as seven or eight of them. "call out!!!" In the vast sky and earth, three figures suddenly appeared from different directions.
The masters who arrived at the scene were shocked to see a scene where three unknown demon kings had died and their corpses were being eaten by Taotie and Pegasus. There was also a dragon lying across the sky, looking down at them from above. "Demon?" "Wait, that's not right! It's a person!" Suddenly, the expert from the Abbot Academy discovered something and his face changed drastically: "The Sanyi Sect's Life-Transforming Technique?!" "I didn't expect that after a thousand years, you would also go astray and fall into the devil's way." The head of Jietianmen sneered, and when he raised his right hand, a magic sword appeared. The sword energy whistled in the sky and on the earth, trying to kill the dragon. The weaker Yao Chi Palace Master was frightened and began to retreat slowly. Facing the fierce battle that was about to break out, he had no chance of winning. The arrival of these people suddenly made Yaowang, Yuemin and Yueli, who were still eating, feel threatened and had to stop temporarily. They turned their heads and looked back. Their murderous intent became stronger and they roared impatiently. "?" Cheng Zhen noticed that these powerful human beings definitely did not belong to the Nine Departments or the Security Council, and were suspected to be the leaders of secluded sects. He faded back into human form, his white clothes were as white as snow, he stood with his hands behind his back, and used Qi to transmit his voice, which echoed between this world. "Everyone, you have come from afar, what is your business?" "Nothing, I just happened to be passing by. Daoist friend, we have a long way to go. See you later!" The headmaster of Yao Chi Yin Que was frightened by the stares of several demon kings. The moment Cheng Zhen asked the question, he decisively used the secret method, and his figure disappeared perfectly between heaven and earth, without leaving any trace of aura, as if he had never existed. "Ah" Cheng Zhen chuckled and did not deliberately inquire into the identity of the visitor. After he regained his human form, Jiang Mo's second true body also appeared and stood side by side with him. The previously raging demonic energy, like a storm, covered up his existence. The abbot and the head monk Jie Tian, who were not far away, felt a chill in their hearts when they saw the true appearance of the Demon Lord. They instinctively sensed danger. There were also three demon kings eyeing them covetously. If a conflict occurred today, there would be no way they would leave alive. "Hmm? You two, why are you silent?" Cheng Zhen asked again. "Fellow Daoist, I just happened to pass by. There was a big monster in the southwest, and I went there for it. I never thought that I would encounter strange phenomena on your side. I thought there was a disaster, so I came here to help." The abbot clasped his fists and explained. His age was unknown, but he had white hair and an air of a sage. He made up excuses effortlessly without any hesitation. "Is it?" "Then I won't delay you, Senior. Go ahead. If we meet again someday, I hope to hear about your deeds. But please don't lie." Cheng Zhen smiled but did not smile. Considering that they were all human beings, he did not take any forceful action against the abbot. "Okay, fellow Taoist, goodbye!" The old man bowed in response, his mind subconsciously tense, and he did not dare to ask about the alliance with the Demon King. Some things could be gotten away with by pretending to be stupid, but once exposed, he might even lose his life. Thinking of this, he was afraid that these members of the Demon Sect might go back on their word, so he used the escape technique to evacuate as soon as possible.
In the end, in the vast world, only the leader of Jie Tian was left alone. He was already numb. If the three demon kings and the devil lord attacked him together, they could cut him into pieces. "Fellow." Just as Master Jie Tian was gritting his teeth and racking his brains to find an excuse. "Don't tell me you were just passing by." Cheng Zhen's voice was a little cold. He did not forget that when he was still a dragon just now, this man had an extremely strong murderous intent. If his uncle's Dharma body and several demon kings were not there this time, he would most likely be in trouble. At this moment, the pressure on Sect Leader Jie Tian suddenly increased. As if he smelled a dangerous aura, his eyes became sharp and extremely alert. "I" He was about to explain himself, but Cheng Zhen interrupted him impatiently: "Forget it, learn some lessons." "Uncle Master——" "boom!!!" The second real body attacked with great momentum. Just one person had the power to defeat a galloping army of thousands. "How dare you bully me, you thief?" The head of Jie Tian Sect was furious and drew his sword to fight. Sword energy rose into the air like a waterfall, gathering together his killing moves to destroy the attacker. "boom!" "Bang!!" Several mountains were blown to pieces, and in every clash, a figure would pierce through the earth like a meteor, leaving a deep ravine. After six rounds of stalemate, the second true body overwhelmed the opponent with its force, chopped off the sword of the leader of Jie Tian, and even chopped him off on the spot. "Pfft——!" Silver-grey blood splattered, and the wound instantly tore through the entire body, ripping open the belly, and wherever it passed, the internal organs exploded into a bloody mist. This top-notch warrior had a look of shock in his eyes and died on the spot, but his body was rather special, suspected to be a Dharma body that was not present in person. The battle came to an end, and only half of the bodies of the three giant beasts were eaten. Cheng Zhen ordered Yao Wang and Yue Min to bring them back to the mountain gate. Half an hour later, on the 4th floor of the Sutra Repository, Cheng Zhen was browsing rumors on the dark web with a solemn expression. He had been so busy preparing for war and adjusting his condition these past two days that he had not paid attention to any news from the outside world. However, on the 2nd alone, the rumors spread from the North almost completely disrupted his plans. "Xuan Zun, is he about to come out from the East China Sea?!" Yao Wang, who was standing by, leaned over to inquire curiously. ".It's hard to say." Cheng Zhen couldn't judge whether the news was true or not, so he just murmured:
"The entrance that Master Uncle explored was at Wutong Mountain in Shenzhen. If it is opened again, it will go to the East China Sea. It is a bit strange, but it is not impossible." "Perhaps he becomes the new master of the realm. This is possible. When refining the secret realm, the space is reset, and another entrance and exit passage needs to be set up." Yue Min, who had the most experience, supported this possibility, and at the same time, he said with some concern: "The news was released by the Nine-Tailed Fox. It is said that it has a national teacher who is good at divination and prophecy. If they sense danger and have to do this, then Xuanzun will pose a fatal threat to them, so they are eager to destroy the passage." "Is it feasible?" Cheng Zhen's heart tightened. "Well, it stands to reason that if the passage is attacked at the moment it is opened and before it stabilizes, it will be forcibly closed due to the self-healing properties of the space." "There shouldn't be only one passage to the secret realm, right? Or, how long will it take to rebuild it after being shattered?" Cheng Zhen felt more and more uneasy. "Not unique, but after the first ritual, there is only one channel that can be opened, and it will continue to increase in the future;" "As for opening a passage, the boundary wall is very thick. With Xuan Zun's ability, I can't say the specific time. I'm afraid that your mortal enemy, our mortal enemy, will be disturbed by the nine-tailed fox and will block the passages in various places in the future. Xuan Zun will be in trouble and may be trapped inside forever." "So, this battle is of vital importance to us and we cannot afford to lose. We need to find the coordinates of the East China Sea as soon as possible." Yue Min helped analyze the situation. He had a premonition that a bloody storm was about to come. (End of this chapter)
