Elder Jiu is no longer at the age where he can be easily angered.

"I'm not going to ask what your conspiracy is. It's time."

If it dragged on any longer, he was worried that the two juniors would rush into action. Given Crofts's true strength, even he was not sure he could win.

The wine elder sighed and said, let's end this quickly.

A huge wine jug was suspended in the void, and the nearby space was confined.

The people outside couldn't hear what they said, they only saw Elder Jiu suddenly explode.

It seemed a little different from when he was preparing to kill Davidson. Although he put all his strength into it at that time, he actually still had some strength left, which was used to deal with Crofts' clone.

"Everyone in the world says that I am addicted to alcohol and that my strength is lower than Xiao Er, and not as good as the Great Elder and Uncle Master. However, few people know that I, the Wine Immortal, also have a famous trick. Over the years, I have rarely used it. Many people have probably forgotten me. Today, I will awaken your memories again!"

Elder Jiu took a step forward, and a sword intent rose into the sky.

"Is Elder Jiu going to use his strongest move?"

The cultivators who had only risen in the past thousand years all looked up at the sky curiously. Elder Jiu was indeed not as famous as Second Elder Xiao Xianda.

What really made Elder Jiu famous was his nature as an alcoholic. In order to drink good wine, he did many things that were not in keeping with his status. He also indulged his disciples in stealing wine everywhere. Who still remembers his famous tricks? I'm afraid even some old guys have almost forgotten them.

"Is it necessary?" Some Mahayana monks frowned.

They were all veteran Mahayana practitioners, and they knew Elder Jiu's famous moves, but some people's moves could not be used at any time and required some price.

The Wine Elder's special move belongs to this type, so it's not because he doesn't use it often, nor is it because he is addicted to alcohol, but because he can't use it often.

"Crofts is a little strange right now, but if we can kill him, even if he is seriously injured, it will have a huge impact on this battle."

The pressure from Elder Jiu's sword intent was growing stronger and stronger, and it was obviously impossible to stop him now.

Since you are going to make a move, you should make sure that this move can hit Crofts, otherwise all your efforts will be in vain.

"Crofts, today, I will let you try my sword of life and death." Elder Jiu opened his eyes, and the light of wisdom flashed in his eyes.

Crofts' face darkened slightly. He had heard of Elder Jiu's sword of life and death, which was a matter of life and death at the cost of burning one's vitality.

It is said that this sword has never failed since it was issued.

The clone Crofts had no intention of dying here. Although he was confident in his original body, only a strong man of the level of Master Zixiao could pose a threat to him. But he was prepared for the worst, so he would spare no effort to avoid it if he could.

…

Just when the battle in Dayan City suddenly entered a white-hot stage.

A strange aura suddenly appeared in the sky above Hill City.

A black shadow instantly flew out from the City Lord's Mansion.

The black robe rustled in the cold wind.

The men followed closely behind him, "Sir, what happened?"

"The Land of the Fallen is open?" Crofts looked surprised. This aura was clearly that of the Land of the Fallen.

"Sir, didn't the Land of Falling move? How come it appears here?" the subordinate said in shock.

"It's not impossible to move it here, but at this juncture..." Crofts was a little worried whether it was a trap.

At this time, a black vortex appeared.

The vortex was not far from Hill City, and Crofts arrived there in just two seconds.

The falling land he sensed was emanating from this vortex, but at this moment he was shocked.

He sensed an extremely evil aura from the vortex. He had not seen this aura very often, but he would never forget it.

"The power of the demon species is the goal of Percy and Rodney. How come it is here?"

Crofts was surprised, but also extremely alert. He was worried that this was a conspiracy of the human race, but he also doubted whether the human race had such ability.

It is true that Percy and Rodney's mission had failed. They had not been able to help the demons break through the seal, but the human race couldn't do anything about the demons, right? So the seal was most likely still in the Fallen Land.

Before Crofts could make up his mind, the vortex began to shrink again, as if it was about to close again.

"Sir, it looks like the Land of the Fallen is about to be closed," the subordinate said anxiously.

"The timing of this vortex appearing is too coincidental." Crofts suspected that it was a trap. "However... if we can release the power of the demons and gain their freedom, our race will have a greater chance of winning. It's worth sacrificing these few people."

The subordinates were stunned. Is your Excellency going to sacrifice the lives of the demons in the cities of Hill and Heba?

"To achieve great things, you always have to sacrifice something," Crofts said calmly.

The subordinate had a complicated expression, "Your Excellency is right. I will go in with you."

"Well, let's go." Crofts no longer hesitated.

Before they stepped into the Falling Land, the vortex suddenly shrank dramatically, and the surrounding space became extremely unstable.

Crofts immediately grabbed his men and rushed in as a stream of light.

Boom.

When they entered the Fallen Land, a powerful force suddenly attacked from all directions. Even though Crofts was mentally prepared, he was caught off guard.

This amazing sword intent surprised and shocked him at the same time.

Such strength is definitely not comparable to that of a cultivator who has just broken through to the Mahayana stage. It looks like it has been accumulated for hundreds or thousands of years.

He knew without a doubt that these were disciples of Master Zixiao and Tiandao. Apart from them, there were not many Mahayana cultivators in the Southern Region. However, the other party displayed a strength that was not consistent with the early Mahayana stage.

For a moment, he wondered if it was someone else or if the Zixiao Sect had other arrangements, but he didn't think it was so difficult to understand.

If the two really had such strength, it would be normal for Percy, Rodney, and the two city lords, Ritter, to die at their hands.

Crofts retreated hastily, not caring about the seal of the demonic power in the Fallen Land.

However, he still had to protect his men, so he was restrained and soon had sword wounds on his body. The sword intent on them was astonishing, and it was definitely not something that two young men in their forties could comprehend now.

The attack did not stop. In addition to the sword energy, there was also knife energy all over the sky.

War Sky Sword?

Crofts was stunned. It wasn’t Tian Dao, but indeed his disciple.

The brutal War Sky Sword tore the sky apart, splitting the clouds within a radius of ten thousand miles in half, and the falling land seemed to be parted in the middle.

Crofts sneered, "If your master uses this sword, I will have to avoid it. You are just an early stage Mahayana, you are not qualified enough."

"You'll know after you try it."

A cold voice came from the void.

Countless sword energies condensed into one sword, which could be seen more clearly up close.

Crofts threw a punch, but unexpectedly, a moment of contempt caused him to suffer a loss.

The moment his fist touched the Zhantian Sword, he realized something was wrong.

The blade's light was not extinguished immediately, but his fist was broken.

Crofts's expression changed, "The power of the world?"

It was too late for him to retract his fist.

"Sir, save me!" The subordinates' frightened voices suddenly rang out.

There was a loud bang, and the place where the two men were standing was engulfed by the sword light and sword energy.

Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou fell from the void, staring vigilantly at the cloud of smoke below.

They did not expect that this sword and knife could kill Crofts, they just wanted to delay time and seize the initiative.

Crofts is now in great momentum and his strength should be at its peak. If the two do not use other means, they will be no match for him in a head-on battle.

"Okay, you guys are good!"

Crofts' extremely eerie voice came out from the smoke. The next second, the nearby smoke was suddenly swept away by a tornado, revealing the figure of the demon.

Crofts was the only one left there, and he was unable to protect his confidants.

Blood dripped from his fist.

Crofts had not experienced the feeling of bleeding for many years, but today he was injured by two juniors.

Gao Han frowned when he saw that Crofts only had his fist injured. Crofts was indeed very strong. He and Zhongli Tingzhou's all-out attack only caused the opponent to suffer some minor skin injuries.

The two looked at each other, tore through space and ran.

Along with them disappeared, the sealing power of the demon species also disappeared.

Crofts chased after him without thinking. The lives of the two were important, but the power of the demon was more important.

He knew what the two men were trying to do, which was to trap him in the Land of the Fallen, but they also trapped themselves.

"Hand over the power of the demon species, and I can let you die more easily."

"Dream on. If you have the guts, catch up with me." Zhongli Tingzhou turned around and said sarcastically.

Crofts: "Seeking death!"

Gao Han looked back at Crofts who was speeding up. "He is faster than us. It is only a matter of time before he catches up."

"Then let's wait until he catches up with us. This will buy us some time." Zhongli Tingzhou said impatiently, "What's going on with Elder Jiu? It's been so long, why haven't you killed Crofts' clone yet?"

Gao Han also felt that this amount of time should be enough, and he was just afraid that something unexpected would happen.

…

Outside Dayan City.

The chaotic battlefield was silent at this moment.

The wine elder in the air slowly took a sip of wine. He looked much older and his breath was much weaker than before he used the Sword of Life and Death.

This sword cost him his life and burned part of it, it was extremely powerful.

However, the result was not as expected.

The sword of life and death discusses life and death, and determines Davidson's life and death.

"When it comes to cruelty, humans are indeed not as cruel as demons." Elder Jiu sighed. He was unable to kill his clone Crofts, and his plan failed.

"Drunken Immortal, since you cannot determine my life or death, today is the day you die!" The clone Crofts roared to the sky. After realizing that their target might be his original body, how could he be willing to die? Once he died, his original body would also be seriously injured.

He didn't know how far the human race had planned, whether they would send more powerful Mahayana monks to the Southern Region to ambush him. As long as he didn't die, his main body would be fine.
