Chapter 371: The Lord of the City is Missing?
Demonic Land, Luxian City.
The scarlet evil star was hanging high in the sky, and the dark scorched earth was endless. A damp black mist was floating in the air, and there were tiny stars in the mist, like living things.
The creatures living in the devil's land breathe this dirty fog day and night, and it is often accompanied by strong winds that sweep in all directions, blowing up endless sand and dust.
Take a breath and you may find 30% sand and dust, 30% debris, and 30% strange substances...
The monsters that grew up in this kind of environment are all tough and tenacious.
What's more, they have to go through bloody fights every day.
This land seems to be breeding natural poisonous insects, and only the most powerful creatures can survive.
Luxian City undoubtedly gathers the most powerful monsters here.
If we ignore those ancient beings that are most likely hiding somewhere in the Demonic Land, then the Lord of Luxian City is the undisputed king of this land.
At this moment, a more imposing guest arrived in the main hall of the Lord of Luxian City.
A guest from the human world.
"This is the Fuhuang Demon Body..."
On the bronze chair, in the darkness, only the Lord of Luxian City with bright eyes stared at the person in front of him and sighed.
"A mortal body can actually stand on equal footing with a god... It's truly a mysterious creation."
"Hahaha..." The person on the other side let out a rough laugh.
He stood in the spacious bronze hall, maintaining the figure of an ordinary burly human, with muscles bulging like dragons and glowing with an eerie purple-blue color.
One eye was dark and deep, while the other eye contained a scarlet evil spirit... If a timid person was just looked at by these two eyes, he would probably have nightmares.
This figure is the legendary Fuhuang demon body.
At this moment, he should be under the control of the Wooden King.
The entrance and exit here is under the Demon-Suppressing Cliff of Yunfu Temple and is sealed tightly. Only a demon with the power to break through the barrier of the demon land can come and go freely.
"My Lord City Lord, demons, monsters, ghosts, and goblins... are all born with powers countless times stronger than those of mortals. However, humans are the most intelligent creatures on earth, while these can only be labeled as evil spirits. This is because humans possess infinite potential." Fuhuang Demon Body spoke slowly.
The voice of the Lord of Luxian City suddenly sank: "Since you are so proud of the human body, why do you want to seize the Eye of the First Demon from my demon clan?"
Its eyes were fixed on one of the eye sockets of Fuhuang's demon body, revealing uncontrollable greed and anger.
"The city lord is joking. The treasures of the world belong to those with virtue. How can there be any talk of stealing them?" Fuhuang's demon body laughed wantonly.
"You farted!"
An angry figure suddenly jumped out from the side of the hall.
If Li Chu had seen him, he would have found him familiar, for it was the Medicine Master Demon whom he had killed all the way to a super ghost.
At this time, Yaoshi Mo's face was full of indignation: "You pretended to cooperate with us, and you must have done a lot of tricks in secret. I said that I could meet the little Taoist priest everywhere I went. Now I think it was probably you who secretly informed us! You ruined our plan just to control Fuhuang Demon Body, open Huaxu Secret Realm, and take my Demonic Land Treasure for yourself! Isn't that right?"
"Yes, I did it."
The Fuhuang Demon Body nodded in acknowledgement, then looked at the Medicine Master Demon calmly.
“Eh…”
The Medicine Master Demon was questioning him aggressively, ready to produce more evidence to slap him in the face when he denied it, but he unexpectedly admitted it so casually that he felt like he was punching cotton.
The conversation paused.
Then, Fu Huang's demon body looked fierce, and asked in a loud voice, "What's the matter?"
As if thunder had exploded, Yaoshi Mo shuddered almost subconsciously, and quickly stepped back while whispering, "It's okay, I'll just ask."
On both sides of the hall, except for the Medicine Master Demon, the rest of the Eight Demons and some other monsters were lined up on both sides, and the demons were numerous and powerful.
After hearing Fuhuang Moku's words, they all showed fierce eyes. These monsters are not good men and women. They all grew up in killing and can only vent their anger in one way! But as Fuhuang Moku looked around, none of these monsters dared to step forward.
The Eye of the Origin Demon installed in the left eye socket of Fuhuang's demon body did not seem to be flexible. As his right eye swept across, his left eye did not have time to move with it.
This way, it looks like a cross-eyed...
Although this scene was funny, no one dared to laugh. After all, the boundless pressure and murderous intent conveyed in these fighting cocks' eyes were no joke.
Fuhuang Demon was quite satisfied with his cross-eyed look at the intimidating demons. He turned around and looked at the Lord of Luxian City again.
"Lord City Lord, the cooperation we agreed upon at the beginning was to help you break the barrier of the demonic land and bring the Immortal Slaughter City back to the human world. As for the ownership of the Fuhuang demon body... I remember that I never told you that I must give it to you, right? As for the Huaxu Secret Realm and the Eye of the Beginning Demon, who wouldn't want such treasures? If you blame me for this, it's unreasonable."
"The King is right."
The Lord of Luxian City was silent for a while, and finally nodded and agreed with Fuhuang Demon Body's words.
But the next second, it stood up suddenly.
Boom! The darkness that had always shrouded the throne suddenly dissipated, revealing the mysterious figure of the Lord of Luxian City! The shadows dissipated in an instant, revealing a human body instead of the huge monster-like body.
He looked like a slightly old man, wearing a loose black robe and looking a bit thin.
But the pressure is heavy.
The Lord of Luxian City and the Fuhuang Demon Body instantly released their respective auras to the peak, as if two heavy torrents collided with each other! Bang——
In an instant, wind and thunder rolled in the invisible air.
But both of them had expressionless faces and serious eyes.
But His Highness's demons could no longer bear it. After a few breaths, they all showed expressions of pain and were almost suffocated by this terrifying pressure and collision.
As the saying goes, when gods fight, mortals suffer.
In front of these two people, the ferocious demons turned into fragile little things.
After a while, some monsters were already foaming at the mouth and fainted. The Wuxiang Demon managed to speak out: "City Lord... please withdraw your magical powers..."
The Luxian City Lord's eyes tilted slightly downward, then he snorted coldly, and the black robe behind him fluttered.
call--
As he restrained his pressure, Fuhuang's demon body no longer exerted any strength.
The invisible rolling thunder in the surroundings finally subsided, and to the naked eye, it seemed as if nothing had happened. However, the demons of His Highness had already fallen to the ground.
This is because they are still quite powerful. If some ordinary creatures were here, they would probably have been killed in an instant.
The Lord of Luxian City seemed not to care and continued to look at Fuhuang's demon body at eye level.
In the previous contest, the two sides seemed to be on edge, but they both stopped at the right time. After all, their goal was to cooperate, and showing off their muscles was just to compete for the dominant position in the cooperation.
Obviously, the result now is a close match.
After a pause, the Lord of Luxian City raised his hand, and a black light flew towards Fuhuang's demon body and was caught by him.
It seems to be a black wheel-shaped magical instrument inlaid with gold.
"According to what we originally agreed upon, I'll give you this ancient immortal artifact 'The Origin of the Demon Arena', and you'll help us open the Demonic Land Barrier, is that ok?" said the Lord of Luxian City.
"Of course there is no problem. This is what we agreed upon." Fuhuang Demon Body showed a proud smile.
"Then please wait in my Immortal Slaughter City, King of Dharma, until the night falls on earth, which is the day when my Immortal Slaughter City will be born..."
"By then, if you and I join forces, even Jiang Yirong will not be able to stop us. I will make that damned Yunfu Pure Land... flow like a river of blood overnight!"
"good!"
Fuhuang Demon Body agreed heavily.
The two giants' eyes met for the last time, and then he turned around and left with the servants of Luxian City.
After Fuhuang's figure disappeared outside the hall, the Bone Demon said hesitantly, "City Lord, are we really going to cooperate with a dishonest human again?"
The Lord of Luxian City looked at it strangely and said in a deep voice: "Since we have lost a chip, we can win it back next time. If there is benefit, we can cooperate. So why should we pay attention to integrity? Are we good people?"
The Bone Demon nodded and retreated, thinking to himself that it was true.
The Lord of Luxian City was high above, looking down at the demons below, and said loudly: "We have been in the Demonic Land for countless years, and have long been accustomed to the darkness, blood, and killing here... But we always remember that the human world is where we came from."
"Soon, we will return to that paradise of flesh and blood!"
"Are you... ready?"
There was an immediate thunderous response from below. Those easily provoked monsters, who had just recovered from the previous collision, began to roar passionately with bloodshot eyes.
"Crush them!"
That's right.
To this day, not many people in the world know about the existence of Luxian City, let alone know where Luxian City came from.
Perhaps only within Luxian City can that history be passed down in its entirety.
How could such a grand city be built in this endless wasteland? Ten thousand years ago, Luxian City originally belonged to the human world.
It was only during a subsequent catastrophe that, in order to avoid disaster, some miraculous magic was used to transfer the entire city to the devil's land.
So unlike those stupid monsters originally, the demons in Luxian City all remember the beauty of the human world.
"Okay, all of you can retreat and wait for the third drum beat, then gather in front of the temple."
After some encouragement, the Lord of Luxian City dismissed his subordinates and asked them to prepare for the upcoming battle.
And it itself sat on the bronze throne, stroking the cold and hard edge with its hand, its heart surging like thunder without stopping.
"It has been ten thousand years... Luxian City has finally returned to the human world under my rule."
"My name will also be remembered by all living beings..."
"Hahaha……"
Its gloomy laughter was still echoing in the hall when a ball of red light suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"Huh?"
The Lord of Luxian City was shocked when he saw this.
This light...
It seemed to be some kind of magical power that could open up space. It looked very familiar, like... the summons of the psychic magic bead? It then remembered that monsters of its level would usually restrain their aura and not reveal it. But just now, during the confrontation with the Wooden King, it had released all its aura.
And the breath released can be captured by the psychic magic beads.
But……
Summoning monsters is not completely without realm restrictions. If you want to summon yourself, you must at least be a land immortal.
The thought flashed through his mind, but even the Lord of Luxian City could not go against the power of the precious spiritual magic beads, or in other words, the power of heaven and the power of "rules".
As long as someone calls for it, the monsters must go.
No matter who is recruiting over there, I have to complete his task quickly and then rush back. If I am late, it may delay the arrival plan.
The Lord of Luxian City thought so.
When the red light fell, it instantly engulfed it.
Boom! The moment he landed, the Lord of Luxian City felt a gust of fresh air rushing straight into his mouth and nose.
The air here... is so sweet.
There is also the smell of countless blood and food in the wind.
Fresh and restless.
There are some annoying things mixed in, but it doesn't matter, I will kill them all soon...
Have I arrived in the human world ahead of time?
But it is meaningless to come to the human world like this. When the time comes, it will be pulled back to the devil's land. Only by truly breaking the barriers can it gain eternal freedom.
It opened its eyes and looked around.
This seemed to be an empty hillside, the sky was dark, and before my eyes was... wow, so dazzling.
Ten thousand years have passed. Has human appearance evolved to this level?
The Lord of Luxian City was amazed.
The young man in front of me, dressed in ordinary cloth and carrying a sword, had a dazzling appearance.
His expression was very calm, and he didn't seem very surprised to see me. There was even some eagerness in his eyes...
"Did you summon me?" asked the Lord of Luxian City.
It keenly sensed that this young man was not simple. He seemed to have no aura fluctuations around him. But with his breathing, he could feel something that made him feel very uncomfortable.
It's not just a simple discomfort, but...
Scared.
What's going on? It wants to know.
Since he summoned me here, he should not be considered my enemy.
But the young man in front of it didn't seem to intend to give it an answer. He wanted to give it something else.
This young man is naturally Li Chu.
Today he came to this small hill with the psychic magic bead, intending to pull a random monster over to gain some experience. However, when he clicked on it, he saw an unprecedented large star suddenly appeared in the sea of stars.
Thinking that the opportunity was not to be missed, Li Chu chose it immediately.
I’m afraid that some magic will be gone once I miss it.
The next second, the monster appeared before his eyes.
Then he drew out the Pure Yang Sword.
Since it is a very powerful monster, you can't waste time talking to it. No matter what question it asks, wait a while before answering.
…
Boom! Boom! Boom! Three explosions of drums resounded throughout the Immortal Slaughter City. A huge army of monsters gathered in the city, forming a vast ocean.
This is a terrifying bloodthirsty army! It is about to bring endless mountains of corpses and seas of blood to the world! Fuhuang's demon body appeared in the hall again, with an unbridled laugh: "Hahaha! Lord City Lord! The time has come, let's go and slaughter the Yunfu Pure Land together! Haha..."
His laughter paused.
In the main hall of Luxian City, the eight demons were seen standing together with solemn expressions, whispering to each other, as if they were discussing something strange.
The bronze throne in front was empty.
The Lord of Luxian City, who loved to sit in the shadow of the throne, overlooking all living beings and controlling everything, had completely disappeared.
"What's wrong?" Fuhuang Moku asked with a frown.
"There was a small problem..."
After a quiet discussion, Yaoshi Mo was pushed out to face Fuhuang Mo. He shrugged, spread his hands, and looked very embarrassed.
"The Lord City Lord...is missing."
