Chapter 604: The War Begins
Behind Su Zhenyuan were a group of Su family geniuses, including Su Muqing, Su Wanqing and Su Wanxue.
Su Qingmei did not show up, but just looked at this place outside the Minghuang Palace. The beautiful woman's face was full of worry.
Li Hao followed Su Muqing as usual. He raised his eyes and looked towards the black warship. He immediately saw twenty powerful figures on it. Each of them had their own strengths and weaknesses, and all exuded a terrifying demonic aura. They were all at the level of Immortal King. Their auras were as restrained as the abyss, and they were shrouded in a power that made it impossible to detect their specific cultivation level.
With the strength of Li Hao's soul, it is impossible to detect his cultivation level. Either the other party has mastered a hidden method that can be called a forbidden technique, or he has reached the pinnacle of the Immortal King realm!
But Li Hao felt that the reason why he could not detect it was because there was an extraordinary force blocking it. It was the three half-step emperors who blocked the investigation.
However, judging from his feelings alone, Li Hao estimated that there were probably many people among them whose cultivation had reached the seventh level of the Immortal Lord Realm, comparable to Su Muqing.
This battle requires a soul lifespan of a thousand years. Su Muqing is already considered extremely powerful, but her soul lifespan is only over five hundred years. If the soul lifespans of those demon geniuses are eight or nine hundred years, then their realm is very likely to catch up with her, or even surpass her!
"The environment in the North Territory is much more severe than that in the South Territory..."
Li Hao's eyes flickered slightly. The geniuses from the Northern Territory, whether human or demon, were obviously stronger than those from the Southern Territory. This might be related to the long-term fighting between demons and humans here. The dangerous environment caused the combat power of the geniuses on both sides to be slightly higher than that of the Southern Territory.
In the Southern Region, reaching the seventh or eighth level of the Immortal King Realm is already a rare talent.
The quasi-emperor who was of the same clan as Di Linchen only had the cultivation level of the seventh level of the Immortal Lord realm, just like Su Muqing now.
And the other party's soul lifespan seems to be hundreds of years longer than Su Muqing's.
Calculated in this way, Su Muqing's talent is already comparable to that of a quasi-emperor's son of the imperial family.
However, compared with the real emperor's son, there is still a gap.
And Su Muqing, who is the most outstanding demon in the Su family in the past 100,000 years, can only reach this level. This shows how profound and terrifying the foundation of the number one imperial family in the real world is.
In addition to Li Hao, Su Zhenyuan, Jiang Qiuyu and others were also investigating the details of the demon genius on the warship.
However, they were surrounded by a force that blocked their exploration, and the black warship seemed to be a powerful weapon. Unless they forced themselves to spy on it, they would not be able to see the details of these demon geniuses.
"It seems that this holy war has attracted widespread attention. If so, why not project this war into the void of the Northern Territory so that both our races can see it?"
In front of the black warship deck, the middle-aged man in purple robe raised the corners of his mouth slightly and chuckled.
He raised his hand and a crack appeared in the void, and a huge black boundary stone emerged, shining with a pure black luster like obsidian.
Hearing his words, Su Zhenyuan and others raised their eyebrows slightly. They would naturally not refuse, otherwise it would not only destroy their morale, but also boost their prestige.
Moreover, they have prepared to give their all in this battle and believe that they will not lose.
"If you wish, what's the harm?"
The three of them exchanged glances, and Su Zhenyuan snorted coldly.
Outside the city of Gusu, there are densely packed figures gathered, including the ancestors of various families and the core of the human race in the Northern Territory. Seventy percent of them are already here, so it doesn't make any sense whether they are reflected or not.
Hearing Su Zhenyuan's words, the middle-aged man in purple robe laughed. It is a good thing to be confident, but they are fully prepared for this battle. These human beings would never have thought that the luck of their holy clan has come. These monsters are rarely seen in just one hundred thousand years, and four or five of them have been born in succession in just a thousand years!
Such a grand occasion seemed to indicate that the war between humans and demons in the Northern Territory, which had been in turmoil for a hundred thousand years, would soon come to an end.
This northern territory will eventually return to the control of their holy clan!
He raised his hand and released a stream of immortal power, injecting it into the boundary stone. In an instant, the scene of the Demon Ancestor's Taoist temple emerged on the boundary stone. Then, the original vibrations of the Great Dao vibrated out from the boundary stone and connected with the void, as if merging with the heaven and earth.
In the surrounding clouds, the huge shadow of the Demon Ancestor’s dojo appeared.
In all the fairy cities on the entire Gusu Imperial Star, the figures of Su Zhenyuan and others appeared in the sky above their heads.
The scene of confrontation between the two sides was reflected in all directions.
The power of this boundary stone was transmitted to the deep space, and under some obscure and terrifying power, it was reflected on the border of the demon battlefield.
"A lot of Terrans."
“They all look delicious, and they feel delicious.”
"Where is this? Isn't that Master Ziqiu?"
"Lord Jinzhu is also here. Look, behind them, isn't that Qiongjiang who just captured the leader of the Demon God War?"
At the border of the demon battlefield and on several demon main stars, countless demon figures were shocked and stunned when they saw the reflected scene, and then became excited.
When the demon territory was boiling, there was also an uproar on Gusu Imperial Star. The 36,000 immortals in the immortal city all saw the scene of Su Zhenyuan and other top human powerhouses confronting the demons, and their expressions became excited.
"It's Master Su!"
"Lord Jiang is here too!"
"Kill the demons, kill them all!"
"The demon must die!"
In each immortal city, countless excited shouts were heard, and countless people raised their arms and fists, including some elderly elders, who straightened their backs and looked extremely excited.
Over countless years, too many humans have died at the hands of demons. Even the immortals and gods who are still alive today have ancestors who died at the hands of demons.
This hatred has surpassed the tempering of iron and blood and cannot be resolved. The only way to stop is to completely destroy one party from the real world!
When the boundary stone was reflected, countless roars gathered from all over Gusu Imperial Star. The shouts of 36,000 immortal cities turned into terrifying waves of sound, spreading over mountains and rivers, across the earth and the starry sky, sweeping outside Gusu City, crashing into the black warship, and stirring up tens of millions of waves.
The entire imperial star seemed to be shouting!
Kill them, kill the demons!!
This is the human race's home ground. Such power made the purple-robed middle-aged man and others on the black warship change color slightly and frown.
The original intention of the boundary stone's reflection was to ravage and kill the geniuses of the human race in public, destroy their self-confidence, and make them completely despair.
However, the combined momentum of these humans clearly exceeded their expectations, and the three of them were actually a little worried about whether this momentum would affect the performance of the little guys behind them.
Hearing the roar that was faintly coming from the back of the Emperor Star, the geniuses of the three major families and other families in the void were all overwhelmed with emotions. They clenched their fists, their eyes filled with determination and murderous intent.
"Enough of small talk, and get ready for battle!"
Jiang Qiuyue said in a cold voice, as if he didn't want to say a word to these demons.
The purple-robed middle-aged man exuded an imperial aura, covering the black warship to prevent the little guys behind him from being frightened by the boiling murderous intent of tens of thousands of immortal cities. He said calmly:
"That's exactly what I meant, but before we start the fight, we have to make the rules clear, right?"
Hearing his words, Su Zhenyuan raised his hand, and a pressure spread out, making those countless shouts seem to gradually become quiet. His pressure enveloped the entire Imperial Star. His voice was extremely cold, and he said word by word:
"Everyone, in this battle, the genius of our human race will compete with the demons. There is only one rule for this challenge. Both sides can use their own magic weapons and magic blades, and take magic pills and magic potions. There are no restrictions or requirements. It only depends on victory or defeat, life or death!!"
These words spread through the boundary stone, spread throughout the entire Gusu Imperial Star, and also echoed in the starry sky outside the Imperial Star.
All thirty-six thousand immortal cities fell into silence.
This means that there is only one choice in this battle: survive and kill the opponent!
There is no doubt that this is a fight to the death!
Countless people held their breath, realizing that the geniuses participating in this battle were all peerless heroes of the human race. They would face great danger and shoulder the honor and future of the human race with their own lives!
"Okay, okay, I like this kind of fight."
"That human race is really stupid. Just look at how the Saint of Qiongjiang will eat them all!"
"No rules? Then die!"
In the demon territory, countless demons laughed happily. They have always regarded the human race as their food. It is ridiculous that these food now want to fight with them to the death.
In the void, Su Zhenyuan paused for a moment, and then continued with a voice as deep as ice:
"Since it's a battle, there are naturally winning and losing chips!"
He said word by word: "If one of our human race loses this battle, I will give up an immortal city!"
"If you defeat one of the demons, you will also have to give up a royal city, and also return a proud prisoner of war from the border of our human race!"
"This war was proposed by the seven demon clans. Both parties have reached an agreement and sworn an oath to the heavens that cannot be denied!"
As his words spread, uproar broke out again in Gusu Imperial City and the demon territory.
"A fairy city as the price? How many people will die!"
"If we lose, will an entire fairy city be gone?"
"What are you afraid of? If that demon loses, he'll lose even more, and he'll have to return our prisoners of war."
"That's right. If we all win, judging by the number of demons, they will have to give us twenty royal cities to slaughter!"
In each immortal city, countless people were excited, cheering and encouraging the geniuses who were about to go into battle.
However, in the demon territory, there was a lot of doubt, and they didn't understand why they had to pay more for this chip.
Soon, a powerful demon appeared and explained the reason: this battle was aimed at killing the human race’s genius!
While everyone was discussing, high in the sky, Su Muqing, Su Wanqing and others couldn't help but look tense when they heard Su Zhenyuan's words.
Although I knew about this before, I still feel heavy-hearted when I hear it again.
Never lose!
"Why didn't Lin Zexuan come?"
Suddenly, Jiang Huanhuan of the Jiang family looked solemn. She glanced around and saw that the dazzling figure was not among the people of the Lin family. Her face changed.
Could it be that the Lin family had no intention of letting the real dragon take risks?
Not only Jiang Huanhuan, but other geniuses from aristocratic families also noticed this and were shocked and disappointed. The prince of the Lin family was definitely the pillar of the human race's geniuses. If they did not participate in this battle, they would lose one of their most powerful generals!
As if he had noticed the looks of the nobles from various families, Lin Daogong said in a low voice with a calm expression:
"Don't worry, everyone. Zexuan is just making final preparations. He will definitely not be absent from this battle!"
After hearing the assurance from Lin Daogong, the current patriarch of the Lin family, the ancestors of the various families felt a little relieved.
"Come on, who are you going to send first?"
The middle-aged man in purple robe smiled faintly and raised his eyebrows, his face full of confidence that he had won.
Su Zhenyuan had an indifferent expression. He raised his hand and waved it. The sealing barrier covering the Demon Ancestor's dojo slowly opened up a ripple.
As the dojo opened, countless discussions stopped and everyone watched with bated breath.
The purple-robed middle-aged man glanced at the dojo, then turned to the twenty demon geniuses behind him and said:
"Whoever comes first will be the first to fight. There is only one requirement: you must win!"
At this point, his eyes were deep, and the light in his double pupils contained an evil and cold light, "Whoever loses, even if he doesn't die, I will make him die!"
After hearing this threat, the twenty demon geniuses were not afraid, but stepped forward one after another.
"I, I'll go first!"
"I, I can handle it alone!"
"It's enough for me to come, you just watch, there's no chance for you to appear."
As seven or eight people scrambled for the food, suddenly, a young man in a blood-red robe stepped out and slowly spoke:
"Let me do it."
As his voice came out, everyone else looked at him, their faces changed slightly, and suddenly no one stopped fighting for it.
"OK."
When the purple-robed middle-aged man saw that it was the other party, his eyes softened and a smile appeared on his lips: "I will rest assured that you will fight in this first battle."
At the same time, Su Zhenyuan, Jiang Qiuyu and others turned to look at the disciples from various schools.
"This first battle must be won, and morale must be boosted!"
"Who?"
Jiang Qiuyu looked at Su Zhenyuan and said, "Isn't it a bit early for your family member to go out first? How about we take the first battle?"
Su Zhenyuan glanced over and glanced at Su Muqing.
The latter felt his gaze and immediately responded with a nod, indicating that he was ready.
Su Zhenyuan turned around and said to Jiang Qiuyu, "Do you have a candidate?"
"Just let Xu Ming go."
Jiang Qiuyu's eyes were deep as he said, "In terms of combat power, he may not be much worse than your precious daughter."
Su Zhenyuan looked up and saw a young man from the Jiang family. The other person had a strong and restrained aura and was the top talent of the Jiang family.
He nodded slightly. It was indeed a bit early to let Su Muqing fight in the first battle. He should let others test the waters first. He had an impression of the boy from the Jiang family. In terms of fighting power, he might not be inferior to Su Muqing. After all, his soul had lived for more than 900 years, and his realm was even higher than Su Muqing.
"Okay, then let's go with him."
Su Zhenyuan had no objection.
Lin Daogong next to him also nodded slightly, agreeing with this choice.
"Come on stage!"
The middle-aged man in purple robe urged.
Jiang Qiuyu transmitted the message, and the chosen prodigy of the Jiang family, Jiang Xuming, slowly stepped out. He was Jiang Huanhuan's elder brother, and also the most outstanding talent of this generation of the Jiang family.
As Jiang Xuming walked out, the young man in the blood-red robe behind the middle-aged man in the purple robe also walked out. His aura was restrained and his realm was still unclear.
"Brother Xu Ming, come on!"
"We must kill that demon and skin him alive!"
When the other members of the Jiang family learned that Jiang Xuming would fight in the first match, they were all excited and clenched their fists to encourage him.
Jiang Xuming had a cold look on his face, holding a spear in his hand, and flew straight towards the Demon Ancestor's dojo.
The purple-robed middle-aged man and others had already explored the Demon Ancestor's training grounds and found no hidden tricks inside, so they immediately let the blood-robed young man go into battle without any worries.
Outside the sealing formation of the Demon Ancestor's Taoist temple, there is a soul-life mirror that reflects the soul and life span. When the two approached, their souls, life spans and figures were also reflected on it.
Jiang Xuming, his soul lived for 927 years.
The blood-robed young man 'Chixu' has a soul lifespan of 982 years!
The life span of the soul is nearly a thousand years, and it is approaching the threshold.
As both parties stepped into the Demon Ancestor's dojo, the sealing barrier slowly closed.
In an instant, countless eyes from the entire Gusu Imperial Star were focused on the Demon Ancestor's training ground.
"The first battle is against Jiang Xuming, it looks like he has a great chance of winning!"
Su Wanqing whispered beside Li Hao, with a gleam of anticipation in her eyes.
The others also knew Jiang Xuming, and their expressions relaxed a little.
At this time, as the barrier was closed, the two people in the dojo slowly exuded a terrifying aura.
There were no greetings, no unnecessary nonsense, only tens of thousands of years of blood feud and hatred.
Jiang Xuming's aura was revealed, and his realm was also exposed, which was the eighth level of the Immortal King realm.
Before the geniuses from various families could be surprised, the aura of the young man in the blood-stained robe was revealed on the other side. He was also at the eighth level of the Immortal King realm!
Both parties are at the same level!
Seeing this scene, not only the human race on Gusu Imperial Star, but also the countless demons in the Demon Territory were surprised by the other side.
The souls and lifespans are similar, but the other party actually has such a monster!
