Outside Hangu Pass.
The fact that a group of powerful demons showed no intention of making a move puzzled all the human soldiers in the city, and gradually, people began to discuss it.
"What are these damned demons doing standing outside instead of fighting them?"
"Who knows, maybe he's lost his mind!"
"With so many powerful individuals coming here, they're definitely not here to play around. There must be some kind of conspiracy or trickery involved. Everyone should be careful."
...
Inside Hangu Pass, millions of soldiers were discussing the matter, and everyone sensed something was wrong, so no one dared to be careless.
Demons and monsters are cunning and treacherous; no one believed that these powerful demons and monsters had gathered here simply to take a look outside Hangu Pass.
that's all.
A day passes in the blink of an eye.
Rumble...
Outside Hangu Pass, a deafening roar suddenly erupted.
On the horizon, a massive, dark army of demons, like a raging torrent, surged toward Hangu Pass.
The overwhelming army of demons numbered at least tens of millions.
It swept through the area, shaking the ground.
A terrifying, malevolent aura surged forth, like a colossal, bloodthirsty beast threatening to engulf the entire Hangu Pass.
"The demon army is here. I knew they were up to no good. They were just waiting for the army to arrive."
On the city wall, someone gritted his teeth and growled: "This army is several times, even more than ten times, the size of the last one."
It seems they really intend to fight us to the death.
"Hmph... Let's fight to the death first, and then talk about it when they break the Chaos Star River Formation set up by the town general!"
“No, something’s not right… Look, there are humans among the demon army, our compatriots.”
Suddenly, someone roared angrily.
This immediately drew everyone's attention, and they all looked towards the rear of the demon army.
The billowing, malevolent aura surged and boiled, seemingly crushing the very air.
One could vaguely see that behind the army, a large number of humans had been enslaved and were arriving in various flying spirit weapons.
"These are our own kind, enslaved by demons and monsters; there are at least tens of millions, or even more."
Ling Zhan narrowed his eyes, looking at the humans enslaved by demons on the flying spirit ships. His eyes radiated killing intent as he coldly asked, "What exactly do these demons want to do?"
Everyone looked grave.
The thoughts of evil spirits cannot be fathomed.
At that moment, the demon army stopped.
Then, driven by a group of demonic warriors, at least tens of millions of human slaves were herded toward Hangu Pass.
These humans didn't even have weapons. Their cultivation was sealed, and they were even connected by iron chains, being driven here like pigs and sheep.
High in the sky.
The leading half-step general-level demon sneered: "Lin Xuan, I admit that your formation is indeed very powerful."
But don't think that means we can't do anything to you.
There are many ways to break the formation.
"I'll show you what I'm made of today..."
Lin Xuan's expression was ashen; he had already guessed what these demons and monsters wanted to do, and anger was boiling in his heart.
Blood sacrifice!
These evil spirits drove at least tens of millions of human slaves here, intending to perform a blood sacrifice.
Any great formation will be defiled by a blood sacrifice, and its power will be greatly reduced.
Lin Xuan, as a master of array formations, was naturally very clear about this.
However, he never expected that these demons would be so ruthless, wanting to sacrifice hundreds of millions of lives to his Hunyuan Star River Formation.
So he had never considered this aspect before.
In retrospect, he was still too naive.
The cruelty of evil is etched into its very bones.
"The blood sacrifice array will kill at least hundreds of millions of lives, while the number of humans you have enslaved is at most twenty million..."
Lin Xuan said coldly, "How do you plan to handle the remaining shortfall? Are you going to make all the demon and evil races share it?"
His voice was as cold as frost, and it exploded like thunder.
The message reached the ears of all the demons and soldiers outside Hangu Pass.
This is a calculated scheme: sowing discord.
really!
As soon as Lin Xuan said this, tens of millions of demon soldiers were in an uproar. Sacrificing hundreds of millions of lives would not be enough to provide enough human slaves.
What about the remaining gap?
Are we really going to make them pay with their lives?
No one wants to die, and the demon warriors are no exception. Especially when they are ordered to their deaths by their own superiors.
They were naturally even more unwilling to accept it.
"snort……"
The powerful demon snorted coldly, and a terrifying pressure swept across the entire commotion of the army. His eyes were as cold as knives: "Lin Xuan, you don't need to play these divisive tricks."
My soldiers will certainly not be sacrificed.
"Only a few hundred million living beings? There are plenty of ferocious beasts and monsters in this outer realm; surely they can fill this gap."
With that, the man waved his hand and roared coldly, "All soldiers, listen to my command! Move all slaves back and kill them without mercy!"
The sound was like a resounding bell, shaking the very air.
Instantly, nearly twenty million human slaves were all thrown into disarray, their faces changing drastically and their bodies trembling.
Many people tried to escape, but they couldn't escape at all.
Not only was his cultivation sealed, but he was also bound to others, so escaping was just wishful thinking.
But no one wants to die. Even ants try to survive, let alone humans.
"No, I don't want to die! Spare me! Spare me!"
"Please, let us go! Please, let us go!"
"Help... help us..."
"Damn you evil spirits, damn you, damn you! Even if I go to the underworld, I will not let you go."
