Wilderness, Demon God Temple
Above the Demon God Temple, a throne appeared. Under the throne were a group of old Demon Emperors, led by Phoenix Demon Emperor. Behind them were a group of newly promoted Demon Emperors or Demon Kings. These young demon masters were all seed candidates for the Demon Emperor of the demon clan.
"Demon Emperor, Demon Queen is here"
With a loud shout, Feng Jiu and Lin Fanghua entered the venue. The two demons were dressed in gorgeous human costumes and walked to the throne under the eyes of the demons.
"Meet the Demon Emperor"
"Meet the Demon Queen"
The demons saluted Feng Jiu and Lin Fanghua. Feng Jiu waved her hand and the demons resumed their positions.
"The Demon Emperor's coronation ceremony has passed. Today, the Demon God Temple is discussing major events related to our demon clan. This emperor has been on the throne for less than a year, and we have received many news of human invasions..."
Feng Jiu said to the demons. The Demon Emperor's registration ceremony has been over for three months, and it is not a very grand event. After all, there are not many demons in the demon clan who have transformed. Without transformation, they are not very intelligent and have no sense of participation.
Today, Feng Jiu came to announce the start of the war. In the past few years, the contradiction between the demon race and the human race has become more acute than before. The unprecedentedly powerful human race has brought great confidence to the human race. Many major sects have personally sent elite disciples to the wilderness to try to regain the initiative in the wilderness.
The demon race naturally did not allow it, and also sent a large number of demon kings to fight, but the demon race suffered losses and more demon masters died.
This made the demon race unwilling to endure. Since more than 200,000 years ago, when the demon emperor of the demon race was defeated by the Qing emperor of the human race, facing the sharp contradictions between the two races, the demon race generally gave in, because the demon race was too scattered and there was no unified leader. If a fight really broke out, the demon race would definitely suffer.
This kind of concession also caused great losses to the demon race. Apart from other things, two-thirds of the territory of Bingzhou used to belong to the demon race, and it was lost one after another in the past 100,000 years.
Now that the demon clan has a demon emperor, they are naturally unwilling to give in. Feng Jiu also needs to use war to consolidate her position. Otherwise, a demon emperor who cannot bring benefits to the demon clan will not be able to command others.
"Conquer the human race and restore the glory of the demon clan"
"Kill all the humans in Zhongzhou and turn them into slaves"
Feng Jiu's words completely ignited the morale of the demon clan in the Demon God Temple. The old demon emperor wanted to restore the former glory of the demon clan and once again let the demon clan stand at the top of the world and become the master of this world. The
new demon clans need to divide the territory. If the old demon emperor has not fallen, their territory will be very weak and they will not have the status of a demon emperor at all. Naturally, they will ask for it from the human race.
"Phoenix Demon King, Peng Bird Demon King " "Yes" "This emperor orders you to send the elite of your tribe to various places in the wilderness, and let the demon kings of various places recruit their people and follow this emperor to fight against the human race" "Yes, Demon Emperor"
"
Send a message to the demon kings and demon kings in other wilderness areas that are isolated from the human race, and let them prepare as soon as possible and coordinate with the Demon God Temple..." Feng Jiu thought for a while and then said that there are still large areas of wilderness to the west of Liangzhou, but their connection with the Demon God Temple is very weak, and they are basically independent. The Demon God Temple may not be able to command them, so Feng Jiu still hopes to send people to lobby them to send troops together to attack the human race. ······ Bingzhou is connected to the wilderness, but the border line is extremely vague, because the border line is moving and constantly expanding. Generally speaking, only when all the demons in certain forces are cleared out, it is called the human territory. Otherwise, it is the outskirts of the wilderness. In the outskirts of the wilderness, there have always been a large number of human beings active. Many independent cultivators will take root in the outskirts of the wilderness, establish families or sects, and then slowly manage. When the surrounding monsters are cleared, it will be the territory of the human race. If this territory is very large, new states will appear. This is how states such as Bingzhou came into being. And the outskirts of the wilderness are further away, that is, the wilderness front line, which has penetrated deep into the wilderness. Here are the wilderness strongholds established by various forces. Human cultivators rely on the strongholds to expand to the surrounding areas. "Dong, Dong, Dong..." At this time, in a certain stronghold, the cultivators inside suddenly heard the sound of drums. The drums were dull and powerful, coming from a very far place, which surprised the cultivators. "Who is beating the drum? Who is this..." "It's not from other strongholds. Even if other strongholds were surrounded by the demons, they would use sound transmission notes to warn people. Why would they beat drums?" "Could it be that a certain stronghold is launching a large-scale attack on the demons and using war drums to inspire people?" The immortal cultivators in the stronghold were all discussing, and they didn't know what was going on. The immortal cultivator guarding the stronghold was also alarmed. He didn't know what was going on, so he had to send people to strengthen the defense and send elite troops out of the stronghold to inquire about the news from the independent cultivators who were hunting demons and treasures outside.
A dozen people were ordered to leave the base and split into several teams to enter the heart of the wilderness. Not long after they walked, one of the teams discovered a team of dozens of independent cultivators flying madly.
"Daoyou, what's going on ahead? Why did the drum sound suddenly appear?"
"Daoyou, run quickly. The drum sound is to summon the monsters. The monsters are launching a beast tide."
"What, beast tide, Daoyou, don't talk nonsense."
"Why would I lie to you? Countless monsters have appeared ahead, overwhelming. If you don't run, it will be too late."
The independent cultivators replied, then passed the team and continued to run forward, as if there were really countless monsters chasing them from behind.
"Brother, look..."
Just when several people didn't know what to do, a cultivator suddenly exclaimed, and they immediately looked up and saw a scene that they would never forget.
They saw countless monsters appearing in the distant forests. The dust raised by the monsters was as terrible as a sandstorm. There were also countless flying monsters circling in the sky, as if they were providing cover for the monster army.
"Beasts, beast tide..."
The leading cultivator's jaw dropped. He had been in the wilderness for quite a while, but it was the first time he had seen such a terrifying number of monsters. He couldn't even count them.
·······
"Master, the news has been confirmed. The Demon Emperor of the Demon Tribe has ordered the assembly of almost all the demons, mobilizing countless monsters, and are now rushing towards the human race. The entire eastern part of Bingzhou, the northeastern part of Zhongzhou, and the entire Hezhou are all sounding the alarm. They have already fought with the wild strongholds of various sects, and each sect has decided to stabilize the pressure on the demon tribe and support the strongholds."
"What's with the drum sound?"
"The Kuiniu drum is made of the hide of a seventh-order Kuiniu. It was a powerful weapon in the hands of the previous Demon Emperor. When the drum sounds, the monsters will go crazy, fearless of fear or death, and their combat power will increase by at least 30%."
"Do the major sects have a way to break it?"
"I don't know for the time being. We can't get any news from the outside world."
"What's the reaction of the major sects in Zhongzhou?"
Lin Jiang asked again. In the world of immortal cultivation of the human race, Zhongzhou is the one that can play a decisive role. The masters of Zhongzhou alone account for about 70% of the entire immortal cultivation world.
"There is no news yet, but there are a lot of rumors outside. Some people say that the Zhongzhou sects are going to join the war and decide to have a world-shaking battle between the human and demon races, just like the Green Emperor did back then."
"Is the news accurate?"
"It's impossible to verify, but the disciples within the large sects are very supportive. This is related to their skyrocketing strength in the past few hundred years. Once the disciples without background have grown to a certain strength, they can no longer make further progress. They need military exploits and spoils of war to profit."
"It seems that the strength of the human and demon races have grown to a certain stage, and the internal forces can no longer digest this force. The only way is to start a war, either to defeat and annex the enemy, or to use the war to consume a group of forces .
" "Master, that's about what I mean. What should we do? Join the war?"
Li Qing said. She no longer cared about other sects. She only cared about Wangxian Sect. Wangxian Sect had been established for hundreds of years and was deeply rooted here.
"Prepare to retreat."
"Retreat, Master, what about our sect?"
"Do you know the secret behind this battle?"
"I don't know."
"Then listen to me. When have I ever let you suffer a loss?"
Lin Jiang said. He suspected very much that this war would be the beginning of the world's destruction, so the Wangxian Sect would never be allowed to join in and be cannon fodder for others. He would not take any advantage of either the demon race or the human race.
"Master, how do we retreat? The Wangxian Sect is now a big and powerful sect with tens of thousands of disciples, and their families add up to hundreds of thousands or even millions. What's more, no matter what the Suyu Sect thinks, we are still a vassal of the Suyu Sect in name."
"I can't help all the disciples. You select the capable disciples and have them secretly hide in Zhongzhou. Zhongzhou is located in the center of the world and generally there will be no problem. If they reach Zhongzhou, the human race will be almost finished. We can fight then. As for the other disciples, let fate take its course. You quietly sell most of the sect's property, and when the time comes, we can get the travel expenses and everyone can leave their fate. As for
the Suyu Sect, don't worry about them. As long as the Wilderness stronghold is not defeated, they will not officially end up. The Suyu Sect's mountain gate is still a long way from the Wilderness. If they really have to end up, it will be too late. All the disciples have been dismissed. What else can they do?"
Lin Jiang said. He had been a vassal of the Suyu Sect for so many years, don't think he was really willing to be a vassal. The Suyu Sect dared to force him, and Lin Jiang was the first to rebel against the Suyu Sect.
Li Qing fell silent for a while, but he did not want to fight with Lin Jiang. He could only silently guess what Lin Jiang was thinking, why he was so negative, and what hidden story was behind this battle?
