Reunion
The war between immortals and demons ultimately swept across the three realms in a tragic manner.
Led by Demon Lord Qi Yuan, the demons launched a fierce and unpredictable offensive, breaking through several lines of defense of the immortals and advancing towards several important nexus points in the immortal realm. Flames raged across the sky, corpses littered the fields, and the intertwining and colliding of spiritual light and demonic energy dyed the once peaceful sea of clouds gray-black and scarlet.
Qinglan Realm, as the core of the Fox Clan, also suffered a fierce attack. Although protected by a powerful barrier, the brilliance of the barrier has visibly dimmed under the relentless onslaught of the Demon Clan.
Inside Tingxue Garden, Immortal Lord Jiuche stood quietly by the window, gazing at the constantly trembling barrier light screen outside and the densely packed demonic shadows in the sky. His icy eyes held no emotion, only a calculating calmness.
"Immortal Lord, a crack has appeared at the southeast corner of the barrier node, and the main force of the Demon Clan is launching a fierce attack there!" A trusted immortal attendant rushed over, his tone urgent.
"Move the C-rank Guards to reinforce, and hold the position with the 'Xuanji Formation.' Order the E-rank Guards to harass from the flanks with the 'Flowing Fire Technique.'" Jiu Che's voice was calm and even, each command delivered clearly and precisely, responding to every change on the battlefield. He was like a perfect war machine, efficient and ruthless.
However, the situation deteriorated beyond expectations. The demons seemed to know the weaknesses of the Azure Mist Realm's barrier perfectly, their attacks consistently hitting the most critical points. Finally, with a deafening explosion, the barrier in the southeast corner was brutally torn open, leaving a huge gap!
"roar--!"
Countless demons, like locusts attracted by the scent of blood, roared and swarmed through the breach! The pressure on the immortals' defenses instantly increased, and screams and the clash of weapons echoed through the sky.
Jiu Che's eyes narrowed, and his figure vanished from Tingxue Garden in an instant, appearing in mid-air at the gap the next moment. His snow-white robes billowed, and his Frost Condensation Sword was drawn. The icy sword intent was like a tangible cold wave, instantly freezing the dozens of demon soldiers charging at the forefront!
With his sword alone, he acted like a stabilizing force, temporarily halting the influx of demons.
Just as he swung his sword at a roaring demon general charging towards him, a terrifying pressure that made his soul tremble, familiar yet repulsive, suddenly pressed down from the sky like a tangible mountain!
The clamor of the entire battlefield seemed to have been frozen in time.
All the immortals and demons involuntarily looked up.
The demonic energy parted as if in submission, and a black-and-red figure slowly stepped out from the void. Her beauty was unparalleled, yet her brows held a domineering and icy aura, and the demonic pressure emanating from her radiated distorted the very space around her.
It was none other than the Demon Lord, Qi Yuan.
She finally descended upon the battlefield herself.
Her gaze pierced through the chaotic battle, ignoring the terrified or hateful stares, and precisely and firmly locked onto that snow-white figure, exuding a cold and ruthless aura.
It's been a hundred years.
She had imagined countless times what their reunion would be like, but she never imagined it would be on a battlefield where swords were drawn and blood flowed freely.
He had changed, yet he seemed unchanged. His appearance remained the same, but those eyes that once reflected her image now held an extreme coldness that kept people at a distance, colder than the cold jade of Kunlun.
Ha... the ruthless path.
Qi Yuan's red lips curled into a cold and eerie smile. The violent rage that had been suppressed in her heart for a hundred years, mixed with hatred, resentment and some indescribable pain, erupted like a volcano!
She raised her hand, and vast demonic energy condensed into a giant spear crackling with crimson lightning, its tip pointing directly at Jiu Che. Her voice resounded throughout heaven and earth, carrying a chilling mockery and killing intent:
"Immortal Lord Jiuche, how have you been?"
"Your path of ruthlessness seems to be... quite well cultivated."
Before the words were even finished, the crimson giant spear had already torn through the sky, carrying a terrifying aura of destruction, and shot fiercely toward Jiu Che!
Before the attack even arrived, the fierce killing intent already caused the surrounding space to groan under its strain.
Jiu Che raised his eyes, gazing at the spear of destruction that shot towards him with a familiar yet strange aura. His icy eyes remained completely calm. It was as if the Demon Lord before him, with whom he had once clashed and waged a devastating war, was no different from any other demon general on the battlefield.
He calmly raised the Frost Condensation Sword, its blade gleaming with a clear light, its ruthless Daoist aura flowing, as he met the crimson spearhead that was powerful enough to pierce the stars!
Boom—!!!
The first direct clash between the Demon Lord and the Immortal Lord caused an energy storm to instantly sweep across the entire gap area!
The light was blinding, and the sound was deafening.
The wheel of fate, after a century of separation, turns once more on this battlefield of blood and fire.
again,
It turns cruelly.
