Qi Wuhuo, who was over 200 miles away, had no idea of ​​the changes in Zhongzhou City. He just felt the collapse of the human energy in the city, and then countless black clouds of demonic energy and miasma swept away. Then, with the art of looking at energy, he could see that the air was filled with blood, and it was obvious that more fighting had occurred.

Qi Wuhuo instantly realized that something was wrong in Zhongzhou City.

He held the sword, wanting to go to the city, but he raised his footsteps and then put them down again. Although he was still worried and had many other emotions in his heart, reason still prevailed. The sword in his hand was against the ground, and the sound of killing was slightly restrained. Ao Liu turned into an old man and asked, "Are you going to the city?"

"...No, the other party's target is not the capital city either."

The young Taoist answered.

With a flick of his sleeves, the jade book given by Master Tao unfolded, and the location of Zhongzhou City on it lit up, and then spread out to the surroundings. There were so many cities that Master Lingmiao and Ao Liu looked solemn. The young Taoist replied:

"In the entire Zhongzhou, excluding the prefectural capital, there are hundreds of cities above the county level, and there are countless towns and villages extending out from these cities."

"Zhongzhou is a larger province than Jinzhou, with a population of tens of millions."

"The capital city must be just the beginning..."

The young Taoist pointed at the scroll. With Zhongzhou City as the core, the surrounding large cities that served as guards spread out and lit up, extending to extremely distant places. Finally, the entire Zhongzhou lit up, as if it was burning in flames, and gradually collapsed.

The young Taoist raised his head and said in a slightly hoarse voice:

"So... our current goal is not to go back to Zhongzhou City for support."

"Zhongzhou City has the best generals in the entire Zhongzhou. If everyone goes to help Zhongzhou City, other cities will immediately run into problems. We will be like being led by the nose, unable to do anything, and can only watch Zhongzhou completely burned and collapsed... just like Jinzhou back then..."

Qi Wuhuo took a deep breath and said, "Intercept their arrangements in advance..."

"Then we will gather the forces of all the cities to come back to support Zhongzhou Prefecture."

"Only then can this matter be resolved in the shortest possible time."

"Mr. Lingmiao, please ask the gods of the land to pass on the message. Mr. Ao, please also ask the gods of the water palace to pass on the message... They are much faster than us in passing messages, and they have a trusting relationship with the local people. In addition, a group of people should go to each village to guard, at least to watch..."

The young Taoist held the sword. Lord Ling Miao saw that his palm was trembling slightly and sighed:

"You must have been injured after controlling such a fierce flame just now, right?"

"The star power blessing of the Arctic Exorcism Institute has now been exhausted. You should not force it now."

"Leave the rest to us."

"The immortals and cultivators in Zhongzhou are not all dead yet, so it is not yet the turn of a child to help..."

Qi Wuhuo shook his hands. He had just broken through the disaster of the calamity of fire. The high temperature shattered the protection of the power of the stars. He felt that almost a part of his body was necrotic. It was only the characteristics of Taoism's innate Qi that could maintain his consciousness and not die. However, the burning pain was not false.

There was no blood flowing from his wound, because the blood had just evaporated.

The young Taoist replied: "Please allow me to participate in this matter."

Ling Miao Gong frowned slightly: "Hmm?"

"Why?"

The young Taoist said, "Seven years ago, a group of people like this saved me. Now I want to do the same thing they did back then."

Ling Miao Gong looked at the young Taoist in front of him, and after a long time he sighed and said:

"Don't be so stubborn. You have already reached your limit."

"yes."

Zhongzhou is vast and is the center of the world. Qi Wuhuo made a judgment, and the gods of the earth passed the news out as quickly as possible, allowing the practitioners in various cities to realize that the problem did not only come from the ferocious monsters that were attacking all over the sky, but more from within the city, and from the human destiny that everyone subconsciously believed would never be broken.

Qi Wuhuo also chose to solve the remaining cities together with Diji at this time.

He knew that only in this way could the disaster be completely eliminated.

The young Taoist swept his sword across, and the Lianyang Sword that had pierced the huge three-headed evil spirit seemed to have undergone tremendous changes. During the battle, he only needed to swing it lightly to easily cut the enemy in front of him in half, and he hardly needed to exert any strength himself, which greatly relieved Qi Wuhuo's consumption.

The monster in front of him was chopped to pieces. After being killed by this sword, not even blood was left.

On the street ahead, the demons sensed the aura of this place and turned around, rushing towards the young Taoist in front of them. Qi Wuhuo exhaled slowly, borrowed a trace of charm left in the Five Thunder Judge's Order, with a hint of fiery aura in his eyes, held the sword horizontally in front of him with his right hand, and pressed the sword with his left hand.

Thunder——

Recruit!!!

If you look down from a high place, you can see that the streets of this city are suddenly lit up with a bright white light, which penetrates the entire street in just a moment. The young Taoist priest carrying the long sword passes by in an instant, and dozens of demons are turned into charcoal in an instant. The scorching energy rebounds, and the young Taoist priest holding the sword can't help but stagger a step, and he can barely maintain his body with the sword against the ground.

He opened his mouth and coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale.

The two auras of fire and thunder circulated in his body and were forcibly suppressed by the innate Qi. The young Taoist raised his hand to wipe the corner of his mouth. His eyes were cold and he looked up at the City Lord's Mansion of this city. However, before the young Taoist rushed over, the great formation of humanity and destiny of this city was opened again.

Before him, someone had killed all the demons on the street and fulfilled the message conveyed by the earth god. He saw broken swords and people falling down.

An old Taoist priest came out, leaning on a sword, supporting a monk with a broken arm.

"Fellow Daoist, the destiny of humanity here has been opened."

The old Taoist looked gloomy and replied:

"After the original city lord discovered that he was parasitized by a demon."

"He set himself on fire."

"He said that he had studied all his life and knew how to write the four characters 'sacrifice one's life for justice'."

On Qi Wuhuo's jade book, the light representing the fortune of this city lit up, and then almost at the same time, the light spots of the other three cities also lit up. While he was fighting a bloody battle, the fortune of humanity in the other cities that were second only to Zhongzhou Prefecture City was gradually restored.

In the end, the chain formation that was about to burn the entire Zhongzhou was directly cut off, and the disaster was controlled within a certain range.

The dissipation of the demonic miasma was cut off.

But there is no time to breathe, there are more important things.

The next step is to kill all the demons within this range.

Qi Wuhuo raised the sword, his fingers were a little stiff.

He thought about it, tore off a piece of cloth from the wine flag next to him, and tied the sword directly to his palm to prevent the weapon from falling out of his hand due to physical exhaustion.

The innate Qi flowed and changed, and he struggled to control his body and moved. The vast majority of people in Zhongzhou did not live in the city. Many people lived outside the city, in the countryside. There was no humanitarian luck in these places. Only the earth gods were still fighting, and the rest of the practitioners also started to move.

Everything seemed like a reversal of the Jinzhou disaster seven years ago.

In the city of Zhongzhou, the luck formations from other cities shared the pressure, and the Black Armor Army was able to ease some of the pressure. They were still at the front, where the pressure was the greatest, and their comrades kept falling down and dying, but at least this time, they didn't have to swing their weapons against their own people.

The guard gritted his teeth and roared, "Men of Zhongzhou, charge forward!"

"Have we, the military, ever been taught to stand by and watch our comrades fight to the death without doing anything?!"

"In the military, there is only death in battle, no escape!"

When the Baihui Army from Zhongzhou came to the front, the captain of the Black Armor Army cavalry glanced at him and said, "You are no match for them, why are you still coming up?"

The guard's expression was ferocious: "If one can't stop us, use two. If two can't stop us, use three. If three can't stop us, use five."

"This is Zhongzhou. I have been a soldier here for so many years. There is no reason for me to escape."

"People from the Black Armor Army, stop looking down on others!"

He fought hard and was finally killed by a wolf demon. His ankle was bitten off and he fell among the corpses. Finally, he died in battle after strangling a demon to death with his arms while roaring, his eyes wide open. Next to him were the corpses of Baihui Army and the corpses of Xuanjia Army, which had returned to a peaceful life.

Then immediately a soldier of the Baihui Army wearing a white ornament on his waist rushed forward to fill his position.

He charged forward with a roar.

This is the opening facing the charging group of demons.

The place was narrow and inside the city, so there wasn't much room to hide.

The military formation is different from the martial arts world. You must trust your comrades and go straight ahead. You cannot dodge or evade, otherwise you will disrupt the battle formation. This is a meat grinder where both sides exchange their lives. You cannot be timid or retreat. The wind blows through here, through the originally broad avenue, and the fortune of every block resumes.

When the old Taoist exhaled, his body was already extremely tired.

He came here all the way from Lianyang Temple, slaying demons and saving the people. Now, he finally stopped. The old Taoist sighed and slowly raised the sword in his hand. On the road in front of him, there was a figure in a Taoist robe standing there.

The latter's Taoist robe was stained with blood, his hair was disheveled, one of his hands was broken, and the copper coin sword in the other hand was also scattered. He was dead, and at this moment he was just an evil creature infected by the evil miasma.

"Daoyou Li from Chunsheng Temple..."

The old Taoist looked compassionate, holding the sword, and said:

“Supreme Lord…”

The dead thing roared and attacked with a sword. The copper coin sword smashed down heavily and collided with the Taoist's magic sword with great force, sparks flew out, and his eyes were cloudy, with only black pupils and no whites left. He murmured unconsciously in a hoarse voice: "Kill the demon, eliminate the devil..."

The old Taoist was filled with grief and replied:

"Yes, slay demons and eliminate evil."

The two magic swords collided with each other.

The fight started here.

And the source of everything, the City Lord's Mansion, the core of the entire Zhongzhou City, has completely turned into a creation of flesh, blood, vines, and huge flowers and leaves. The roots are bloody, as if to devour everything. There are human faces on its branches and leaves, all crying, and the original city lord has long since turned into something that looks like human skin that has been drained of its flesh and blood essence.

The branches and twigs spread outwards, and were about to completely penetrate the entire Zhongzhou city and transform into an incomparably huge and powerful demon. However, there was a peaceful, warm light flowing, which forcibly suppressed this evil spirit that was so powerful that it made people despair. A monk in a gray robe stood here calmly with his hands clasped together.

His own Buddha light collided with the huge evil energy in the City Lord's Mansion and consumed each other.

"Monk..."

"You are a monk, why do you have to do this?!"

"Hmph, the evil spirit is endless, but your Buddha light is effective. Why do you have to get involved in this cause and effect?!"

The gray-robed monk replied: "Everyone is in the world of mortals, so who can escape the law of cause and effect?"

“Those who claim to be unaffected by karma are merely turning their backs on sentient beings and are unable to attain enlightenment.”

His eyes were calm, and he said to himself:

"I wonder why that fortune teller would wait for me in Zhongzhou City so ostentatiously without hiding or avoiding me."

"So it's because of you."

"He saw this disaster, but he knew that if he told others, what he had foreseen would become inaccurate, so he dared not speak out. He could only pretend to be crazy and stupid to lure me here to restrain you... I don't understand the art of fortune-telling."

"But considering his cowardly character and poor fighting skills, it's surprising that he could achieve this."

The evil energy rising in the City Lord's Mansion was enough to engulf the entire city. At this moment, the monk clasped his hands together.

With eyes closed, this body becomes light, resisting desperately.

It seemed as if the hoarse cries of millions of people were rising and falling in his ears:

"You can't hold on."

“I can’t hold on!”

"Give up, monk, and leave here."

The monk closed his eyes and said nothing.

The Dharma is here.

The world is here.

All living beings are here too.

What need is there to say more?

He clasped his hands together and said in a calm voice, "Mercy."
