Chapter 367: The Human Race Who Was Once an Emissary to the Snow Region
Although the demon clan's understanding of Jiuzhou is no longer what it was before during the long time of a thousand years, they have heard about the wonders of Jiuzhou since childhood.
There was a saying in the ancient scrolls that the land of Jiuzhou is rich in natural beauty and spiritual treasures are often found.
So even though they didn't know what it was, they were sure it was definitely important.
The most important thing is that it seems to have flowed out from the oldest tribal land of the human race.
Tian Yao Asakura held a spear stained with He Long's blood, and all the energy in his body was constantly bursting out, full of murderous intent.
"Hand this thing over."
He Ye helped He Long, who had been injured but hadn't let go of the immortal spirit, and said, "I heard that the Demon Prince claimed that life in the Snow Region was difficult and that entering the Nine Provinces was a helpless move. He also said that he only wanted Yunzhou, as if he didn't want to start another war. But your behavior seems to tell us otherwise."
Xuan Yao Yetuo, who was following behind Asakura, heard the voice and said, "The Nine Provinces Spiritual Treasures are originally ownerless, and they are not exclusively owned by your human race."
"But Zhongzhou is our human territory."
"Really?"
As they spoke, He Ye and He Long retreated.
At the same time, the ancestors of each family began to step forward, facing the heavy demonic energy, and protected He Long behind them.
The originally tense relationship between the various parties was instantly eased a lot because of this sudden change, and they even began to align their positions.
He Ye just said that he would hand this item over to the Immortal Sect, but no one dared to believe such nonsense.
But for everyone, there is one thing he said that is right.
This thing leaked out from the Holy Land of the Sages, and the Holy Land of the Sages is related to the ancestral temple of the human race and the origin of the way of heaven. Such immortal spirits must never fall into the hands of outsiders.
Especially over the past thousand years, the demon clan has always felt that the choice made by Heaven was unfair, and they have no longer concealed their intention to replace Heaven since the beginning of the war.
As for He Ye's question just now, everyone knew that it was just a casual sarcasm.
The demons have joined forces with the barbarians to invade Jiuzhou. How can there be any peace? It's just the difference between a soft knife and a hard knife.
The harsh environment of the Snow Region limits the expansion of the demon tribe, so they will not want to show weakness until Yunzhou is large enough for them to migrate. However, as they take root in Yunzhou, get rid of the harsh environment, and are no longer restricted by resources, their tribe will certainly expand.
This means that one day in the future, they will inevitably start a war again because of their place of survival.
So they were hostile from the beginning, and no one believed that they could be persuaded to leave with just a few words.
boom!!
Suddenly, Xuan Yao Yetuo, who didn't want to say any more nonsense, suddenly grabbed a heavy hammer and smashed it down, shattering the stagnant atmosphere here.
In an instant, the war broke out.
Amidst the surging waves, Zuoqiu Jingyun rolled up his sleeves and rushed forward suddenly. The long sword in his hand cut out a surging air barrier and collided fiercely with the heavy hammer.
Almost instantly, he felt a terrifying force pressing down on him, causing his iron knife to tremble and his arm bones to make a slight sound. He then suddenly cast a spell, pressing down with the force of gravity.
But the next moment, the demon general Yetuo suddenly disappeared from the spot.
It was an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, the heavy hammer had already smashed down from the left side.
Seeing the crisis coming, Zuoqiu Jingyun did not panic but clenched his hands suddenly.
With a loud bang, a purple lightning bolt roared down and struck Yetuo fiercely. The dazzling white light instantly submerged him.
The combat power of the demons in Xuan Yao Realm is between Yingtian and Wujiang, similar to the Barbarian Soldier King Realm. This was the information brought back by the Daxia delegation to the Snow Region three years ago.
But they cannot comprehend the Way of Heaven, and their fighting power comes entirely from themselves, similar to the human race's body refining lineage.
For human Taoist practitioners, this method of fighting based solely on speed and strength is actually the lowest level, so they are naturally not afraid.
But the next moment, Zuoqiu Jingyun suddenly saw the heavy hammer coming down and directly flattening the sea of thunder.
Behind the light, a demonic figure exudes an even more majestic aura.
boom!!!
Zuoqiu Jingyun flew backwards, his feet plowing a deep mark on the ground, and his blood and energy kept flowing backwards.
At this moment, other demon generals came roaring and fought with the humans.
"It's not advisable to stay here for long. Leave as soon as you find the opportunity!"
"Brother You, I'll leave the Immortal Spirit to you."
He Ye growled and threw the fairy spirit towards You Fusheng.
During this flying process, Zhao Tianji, who had been eyeing it covetously, suddenly stepped on the ground and flew forward ten feet, causing You Fusheng's face to change. He suddenly stood up and held the fairy spirit tightly in his hand.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Tianji couldn't help but laugh awkwardly, while You Fusheng's face was gloomy.
In fact, they all knew in their hearts that the sudden alliance was just a helpless move in the face of the demon clan. The competition between them was only suppressed, but it never stopped.
However, this is not the best time to worry about this matter, because the most urgent thing is to take it to a safe place.
This task is not difficult because the human race is large in number and it is easy to hold back the demon race.
But at the same time, the time left for him is quite tight.
Because among the demon generals who came here there were some celestial demons whose combat power was comparable to that of the boundless, they could easily break through the siege and chase after them.
After obtaining the spirit, You Fusheng no longer hesitated and turned to head northwest.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Wuji and the Jiao family's ancestor looked at each other, then abandoned their current front line and followed with the spiritual energy surging under their feet.
They did not try to snatch it away, but kept escorting it all the way, and You Fusheng could not say much.
But what they didn't expect was that before they could fly off the cliff, a pair of heavy iron fists came crashing down from the top of the hill.
That was not a human fist. It was huge and hairy, and it caused ripples in the void.
"Oh no, there's an ambush!"
With a loud shout, You Fusheng, who was holding the fairy spirit in his hand, had his eyes trembling, and immediately condensed a fairy light and rushed out with a bang.
His reaction was timely enough, but the fairy light was still shattered. At the same time, a sense of oppression like a mountain collapse and the earth splitting came roaring, and the whole person was smashed away by the iron fist, and fell heavily into the valley with a bang.
Zhao Wuji and the Jiao family ancestor who followed behind him were also in a bad state. Their attention was on the immortals. When they came to their senses, they saw two thick and black arrows flying towards them with terrifying power. They immediately blocked them with their palms, and the sound of golden swords colliding resounded through the night sky.
The two men felt a sharp pain in their palms, and blood spurted out where their palms were pressed against the arrow. The arrow's immense force sent them flying, breaking the roots of ancient trees and plowing a deep trench in the ground.
Then the three of them looked up in horror and saw several tall and strong figures with green faces and fangs appearing on the hill.
The barbarians are here too!
This sudden change made all the noble families in the dense forest change their expressions, and also frightened those noble families who came from afar.
At the same time, a disciple from the Youtian Academy's Head Office was standing outside the door, and his face turned pale when he saw this scene.
Tianshuyuan is the nearest immortal sect to this place. When the sky was bright, they were ordered to come and check it out. They never expected to see such a scene.
The holy land cracked, fairies appeared, the barbarians and demons ambushed, and everything happened beyond their expectations.
"Leave a group of people here to watch over it, and the rest of you, follow me back to Shengjing to ask for help from the academy!"
"yes!"
In the pitch-black night, half of the disciples in the Dean's Office turned around and fled quickly, while the rest peered through the gaps in the forest, staring intently into the depths of the woods.
With the appearance of the barbarians, the noble families in the valley were surrounded.
Under a beam of blazing sword light, a demon-like demon general came out of nowhere to kill. The ancestor of the Qiu family tried his best to block him, and at the same time, he joined hands with various companions to fight back fiercely with the iron rod.
But at this critical moment, he felt the surging energy in the demon general's body, and his arm trembled violently in pain.
With a bang, the ancestor of the Qiu family was hit directly in the heart by a punch, and blood spurted out of his body.
But the most deadly thing was the iron spear, the iron spear held in the hands of the Heavenly Demon General.
“Buzz!!!”
With a violent tremor, the sharp iron spear made the void tremble. The Heavenly Demon General Asakura suddenly attacked, and the spear shaft split the valley like a snow dragon.
Zuoqiu Jingyun and He Ye were both accompanied by various Dharmas, holding countless immortal lights in their hands, and jointly withstood the attack of the Water-Splitting Song, which was said to be able to break the river flow. Their teeth, clenched due to the pressure, instantly oozed blood.
But what made them unbelievable was the speed of this demon general.
Because just when they were taking the blow and had not yet reacted, the iron spear was pulled back by the cloak, and then suddenly stabbed out. The overwhelming murderous aura made the two men's expressions change drastically, and they immediately looked bloodshot.
He Ye's half body was instantly defeated by the cold light, and his mind was spinning.
But the one who suffered the most was Zuoqiu Jingyun, because he was the targeted one. All the laws that accompanied him were directly pierced through, and he was blown hundreds of feet away with blood splattered all over the sky.
"Brother Jingyun!"
"It's over..."
Seeing Zuoqiu Jingyun spilling blood in the sky, the ancestors of the Sheng family, Liu family and other aristocratic families were all trembling in their hearts.
In fact, the strength among the major families in Zhongzhou is balanced. This is not a coincidence, but because of the evolution and struggle over thousands of years, the strength between them must be balanced.
Therefore, in the fight for the spiritual treasure, there must be a back-and-forth among these noble families.
But they never thought that the demons and barbarians would appear here, and this level of strength has long surpassed the highest level of their families.
There were countless casualties in the front, and You Fusheng and his group facing the barbarians in the back were not having an easy time either.
The barbarians sent out their general king, who held a heavy iron-thorned club in his hand. When he dropped the hammer, a cliff would collapse. The most thrilling one was the soldier king who held the black bow.
He seemed to be specialized in archery, and cooperated with the general king to bring them to the brink of death many times.
At this time, another arrow pierced through the wind and shot out, hitting You Fusheng's eyebrows. He was so frightened that he shot out a beam of fairy light, which collided with the arrow.
He, who was at the Yingtian realm, could naturally block the arrow shot with all his strength by the Soldier King realm, but at the moment the arrow was blocked, a huge fist with a surging wind and waves hit his right shoulder hard.
With a snap, You Fusheng's shoulder was smashed down and he cried out in pain instantly. The shrill scream made people's scalp numb.
But the biggest problem was that the fairy spirit that flowed out from the holy land of the sages was in his right hand. As his shoulder broke, You Fusheng's right hand was directly disabled, and the fairy spirit filled with golden light instantly flew out of his hand and into the air.
“Here I come!”
Zhao Tianji, who had been following You Fusheng, saw the opportunity, and with a fiery look in his eyes, he instantly flew into the air and grabbed the fairy.
Just as his fingers touched the fairy light, an iron fist pressed down hard, smashing Zhao Wuji into the smoke-filled valley.
But as the saying goes, 'the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it'. The ancestor of the Jiao family came roaring from the south, grabbed the fairy spirit, and instantly flew eastward.
But before he could walk three feet, his arm exploded and turned into a ball of bloody mist.
At that time, a black arrow pierced through his arm fiercely, and the strong energy directly turned the arm into meat paste.
The fairy spirit was buffeted by the raging waves of battle and drifted away in a farther direction.
A soldier king among the barbarians instantly stepped into the sky and stretched out his hand towards the fairy.
This man's name is Xingchuan Shisi, and he is also a well-known barbarian warrior. He made great military achievements in the Battle of Youyun and was the first personal soldier under the Iron Fist General King.
At the same time, the look of the Xuan Yao Realm demon general Ye Tuo suddenly became stern.
They are allies with the barbarians, and he has fought side by side with Xingchuan Shisi, but now they are not on the battlefield.
They, the demon tribe, were the first to arrive here, so how could they watch this thing fall into the hands of the barbarians?
So, at Asakura's signal, he took off into the air and rushed towards the fairy spirit at an extremely fast speed.
But at this time, the members of the aristocratic family who had always been attracted to this fairy and were afraid that it would fall into the hands of others did not move at all, but instead showed fear in their eyes.
Because whether it is spiritual stones, elixirs, or even so-called spiritual treasures, they must be able to be used based on life.
Just at that moment, they saw Zhao Wuji and the Jiao family's ancestor fall to the ground seriously injured. For a moment, no one dared to move, and they could only watch the two tribes of barbarians and monsters rush to snatch them.
When those disciples of the noble families who had suffered countless injuries saw this scene, their eyes suddenly dimmed.
Ever since the barbarian-demon coalition invaded the two states of Youyun, the human race has been holding a grudge against these two alien races. Many people would angrily say in casual conversation that they would expel them one day.
Now that they are truly facing a tit-for-tat situation, they have become the weakest among the three tribes, and the sense of gap is naturally huge.
At this moment, two figures flying in the air had collided with each other.
After all, they were still allies, and neither of them attacked the other, but their qi was fighting against each other frantically. There was a huge explosion, and then they all reached out their hands, and the violent qi pressed down so hard that a strong wind suddenly blew up in the night sky.
But at this moment, another hand suddenly reached out in the night and grasped the fairy spirit that was shining with golden light in the void.
Those were not the hairy hands of a barbarian, nor were they the hands of a demon with fine scales on the wrists, but a pair of human hands with distinct joints.
Bang!
The addition of the third energy was like hot oil dripping into a cold pot, instantly suppressing the breath of the two barbarians and monsters into a frenzy.
The expressions of Xingchuan Shisi and Ye Tuo changed as they felt a wave of hot air rushing down from above, suppressing their breathing and making it stop for a moment.
But after only a moment of confusion, Xingchuan Shisi immediately realized that this was a human.
Subconsciously, he swung his fist straight up and down, but unexpectedly, the opponent also punched back.
After just a moment of astonishment, this barbarian general at the level of Soldier King revealed a cruel smile.
Having led troops in battle in the North for many years, he was very familiar with the combat effectiveness of the human race.
Their fighting power came from the feedback of the Heavenly Dao and the power of their magic. If this fist had flashed with lightning or raged like a raging flame, he might have been more cautious, but a pure collision of fists? He felt that he could definitely beat the other party into a pulp with one punch.
Xingchuan Shisi let out a loud roar, and all the energy in his body surged, but the next moment he felt a sharp pain that went straight from his arm bone to his shoulder.
It was a force he had never imagined, which penetrated his fist and directly broke his hand bones.
Before he could react, he saw a figure in white coming in front of him.
Then, a punch was thrown.
The barbarian's body was said to be the strongest in the entire Qingyun. During several battles in the northern border, he had seen the despair on the faces of countless humans who had tried their best but were unable to hurt him at all.
But at this moment, he found that his sternum caved in when the punch came, and his whole body was bent at the waist, and then flew backwards.
With a loud bang, sand and dust fell wildly and the cliff collapsed.
At the same time, a vast sword light was born from the night, rushing straight into the sky and turning around to slash down.
After Xingchuan Shisi swung his fist, Xuan Yao Yetuo also reacted quickly and smashed the hammer in his hand towards him fiercely, but the sword energy came down like a mountain.
As if being knocked over by the waves in the sea, Yetuo was crushed to the point of having his eyes bloodshot. He retreated ten feet and flew out sideways against the ancient tree.
At this moment, the valley suddenly fell into silence.
Ji You stopped in mid-air with sword energy boiling all over his body. With his brows slightly raised, the scorching heat from his body spread in all directions, accompanied by the sound of blood surging, like the roar of a tiger or a dragon.
He first looked down at the valley, and saw countless people from aristocratic families looking at him in a trance. Then he turned his gaze to the dense cracks on the west side.
In fact, before he arrived, he also thought that a spiritual treasure was born near the Holy Land of the Sages, but he never thought that the Holy Land of the Sages would crack.
However, he could not tell what the light of swimming fish in his hand, which was full of immortal power, was.
But whatever it was, it was his.
"fourteen!"
“Ahem…”
Xingchuan Shisi was embedded into the cliff by a punch, and was coughing up blood and barely breathing.
Seeing his personal soldiers become like this, the general Wang Danba standing on the cliff could not help but show an expression of disbelief.
Just as Xingchuan Shisi thought, the barbarians' physical bodies were unparalleled in the world, and even the demons had to avoid their edge. No human should be able to defeat a barbarian purely with physical strength, let alone a barbarian at the level of Soldier King.
"It's him."
"?"
General Wang Danba turned around when he heard the voice and asked, "Dawa, do you recognize this man?"
The soldier king Dawa, holding the black bow, revealed a solemn expression: "Guardians of the human delegation, Ji You."
More than three years ago, the barbarians intended to form an alliance with the demons to jointly attack Jiuzhou. After receiving the news, the human race immediately sent an envoy to the demons to meet with them.
At that time, Dawa was ordered to pursue the enemy in the wilderness with eleven other military kings.
At that time, he bent his bow and tried to shoot a human being, but failed. Later, the human being used swordsmanship to defeat his sworn brother.
When the other barbarians heard the name Ji You, they were instantly dazzled.
"It's you, Kuqikang." Danba said in a deep voice.
"They know Ji You? But why are their reactions so strange...?"
On the outskirts of the woods, other members of the aristocratic families who did not dare to go deep into the area could not help but look puzzled when they saw this scene.
The only contact between humans and barbarians is war, but as far as they know, Ji You has never participated in a war, so they are very puzzled as to why these barbarians know him.
"Qingyun Immortal History records that in the second year of Taiyuan, a human delegation traveled to the Snow Region and encountered barbarians on the way. Ji You killed 28 barbarian soldiers, all with his own flesh and blood."
Hearing this, someone suddenly started to explain.
After hearing these words, someone here suddenly reacted and remembered that such a thing had happened before.
In fact, the barbarians did remember Ji You because of this incident.
Because their ethnic group has always been proud of their physical bodies, but being beaten to death by humans with fists is a great shame.
Therefore, Ji You has always had another title among the barbarians, called Kuqikang, which means a demon in the flesh in the barbarian language.
But the barbarians were not the only ones who recognized this man. There was also the celestial demon Chaocang at the back and the mysterious demon Yetuo who had just been defeated.
They don’t know many humans, and Ji You is one of them.
