The demon dragon that had been resting in the back mountain suddenly opened its eyes and pulled the flying chariot into the sky. The two hall masters of the Twelve Demon Kings and several guardians also soared into the sky and rushed towards the demon dragon flying chariot.
The sedan chair was as big as a palace, with a couplet on each side of the entrance. On the left was written "Holding the sun and the moon and picking the stars", and on the right was written "There is no one like me in the world". It can be said that it was pretentious to the extreme.
The members of the Demon Cult in mid-air were also surprised. They did not expect that their leader would have such a powerful aura. He held the sun, moon and stars in his palms. His invincible aura was truly admirable.
"Let's go..." a voice came from the flying chariot.
"Yes, sir." The members of the Demon Cult responded.
The flying sedan scanned itself within its perimeter.
Characters: Zhou Qiong;
Position: Demon Cult Leader;
Cultivation: middle stage of Martial Emperor;
Martial arts: Demonic God Sutra, Sky-high Hand of Life and Death, Eyes of Gods and Demons, and the first level of Heaven-swallowing Demonic Art.
Mount: Dragon Chariot.
That’s right, in half a year, Zhou Qiong has recovered to his prime and even made a breakthrough to a small realm.
The magic dragon chariot flew across the continent. When countless people below saw it, they knelt down and called it a god.
Linhai City is close to the East China Sea and the demon tribe, so there are many hunters in the city who hunt demon beasts to make money. It can also serve as a training ground. Basically, all the famous forces on the continent have branches in the city.
In a restaurant, several people were eating around a table. A man whispered to the others, "Do you know that there will be a war soon?"
The others looked incredulous and said, "What kind of war is this? This is Linhai City. All the major forces have branches here. Who dares to fight here?"
Seeing that they didn't believe him, the man got angry and stood up and slammed the table. "Don't disbelieve me, I received news that the Demon Cult is on its way to the East China Sea and is going to fight the demons to the death. Linhai City will definitely be affected by that time."
Before the man could continue speaking, he felt someone grabbing his shoulder. He turned around and saw a man in a white robe with a sword on his back. His eyes seemed to contain sword light.
"What can I do for you, Excellency?"
"Tell me the details of what you know about the Demon Cult."
"I heard from others that the Demon Cult has already sent troops on their way to the East China Sea. The Cult leader Zhou Qiong has also come. I heard that he is riding on a demon dragon."
The man in the white gown frowned after hearing this and turned away. The man took a long time to sit on the chair. The others were very curious when they saw this.
"It's nothing. Who is this person? Why did he scare you like this?"
"Who? He is Zhao Li."
"What? He is Zhao Li, the Demon-Slaying Sword Master who is number one on the Human List." The person nearby exclaimed after hearing this.
The Human List was created by the righteous sects, and it brings together all the masters on the continent except the demon clan and the devil sect. The Human List is restricted to masters at the Martial King level who are under 40 years old. Above it are the Earth List and the Heaven List, which correspond to the Martial Emperor level and the Martial Emperor level respectively.
Half a year ago, a man named Zhao Li suddenly appeared. He was wearing a white gown and carrying a long sword. He challenged the masters on the human list all the way and climbed to the top of the list in less than half a year.
As for why it is called the Demon-Slaying Sword, it is because whenever Zhao Li encounters someone from the Demon Cult, he will leave no one alive. Over time, it has earned the title of the Demon-Slaying Sword.
"It's bad, it's bad, the beasts are attacking the city." A group of people in Linhai City shouted as they ran. Suddenly, everyone stopped working and ran to the city wall.
At this time, a large number of people had gathered on the city wall, and the high-ranking officials of various sects stationed in Linhai City had all appeared. Outside the city, a dense group of beasts gathered.
Many people with low cultivation levels began to tremble when they saw what was happening outside.
"How could that be? The last beast tide was less than five years ago. This shouldn't happen. I don't want to die."
"Shut up, how could we die? Don't you see so many adults are here?"
"Look, the third on the Human Ranking, Master Wuchen Monk Liaofan, is here too, as is Wang Meng, the ninth on the Human Ranking, and Zhao Li, the first on the Human Ranking, who is the Demon Slayer."
"The Saint Monk Wu Tian, who is ranked eighth on the Earth Ranking, is also there. He will be fine."
The crowd began to make a commotion. The monk known as the Holy Monk Wu Tian coughed lightly, mixed with a hint of a lion's roar, and the scene immediately quieted down.
The holy monk Wu Tian, who was wearing a red cassock, clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, don't worry, donors. The beast tide will not continue forever. I have already passed on the message, and someone will come to help in half a day..."
The top leaders of other sects also came out and said that they had notified the outside world and someone would come to rescue them in half a day.
Linhai City has a large city defense formation, so the monsters won’t be able to attack for a while.
The beasts began to attack the city, and all the masters jumped off the city wall to hunt the monsters. One of the figures stood out. His strength was not the strongest, only at the peak of the martial king, but his efficiency was very high.
He used all his strength every time he attacked, and the sword light flashed continuously among the beasts, harvesting the corpses of the beasts.
Whenever he was about to run out of strength, the ring on his right hand would flicker gently, and he would immediately recover and continue to release his powerful moves.
The people on the city wall could not see the ring flashing, they just thought he had amazing physical strength and profound skills. "As expected of the number one on the human list, his reputation is well-deserved."
"The number one on the Human Ranking is indeed amazing. Look, the number three Master Liaochen and the number nine Wang Meng have been resting for several times."
Even the holy monk Wu Tian noticed Zhao Li, and the monsters also noticed it.
"Oh no, get out of the way quickly! Zhao Li's ring suddenly flashed a blue light and moved Zhao Li horizontally three meters."
A giant claw slapped the spot where Zhao Li had just been, creating a five-zhang deep pit. A white tiger about twenty zhang tall appeared.
"Oh no, Zhao Li, this is a demon tiger in the late Wu period. You are no match for it. Run." Uncle Fu shouted loudly in the ring.
Zhao Li immediately ran towards the city wall. The tiger behind him once again slapped out a huge claw and flew towards Zhao Li. The holy monk Wu Tian and others in the distance wanted to help but were entangled by the opponent.
"Uncle Fu, what should we do..."
"Your current strength is not enough to resist. I can only use my soul power to move you directly to the city wall. After that, I will sleep for a while." Uncle Fu in the ring sighed and said.
Just when Uncle Fu was about to use his soul power to move Zhao Li, a roar of a magic dragon was heard in the sky.
A heavy pressure came directly over. All the monsters stopped attacking the city, and the low-level monsters just lay on the ground and dared not raise their heads.
Even the demon tiger in the late Martial Emperor realm that had attacked Zhao Li retracted its claws and looked towards the distant sky, where a black spot was gradually growing larger.
When everyone could see clearly, they discovered that it was a hundred-foot-long demon dragon pulling a huge flying sedan, with a pair of couplets on each side of the sedan.
On the left side it says "Holding the sun and the moon and picking the stars", and on the right side it says "There is no one like me in the world".
