341 Demon Cult Army
Although he hadn’t seen the full power of Tian Mozi’s secret technique, he reckoned that it wouldn’t be too bad.
Opening it and quickly browsing through it, Song Shi learned that this secret technique mainly relied on self-harm.
The principle was very simple. It was to use his body as the price to stimulate his potential and obtain a portion of the increase in strength.
The secret technique was divided into two parts: the Heavenly Demon Disintegration and the Heavenly Demon Self-Detonation. The former would lose an arm or a leg after using it, while the latter would explode on the spot, equivalent to a human-shaped bomb.
To others, this was something that could only be used when they were desperate. To him, it was comparable to the strongest divine power and was even more powerful than the Six Demons Suppression Fist.
Song Shi happily memorized it and decided to multitask. He immediately began to comprehend it.
He threw the other items together and put them away. Without looking at them, he turned around and returned.
On the other side, in the empty and dark hall, Yu Hua sat on a throne engraved with black flame runes with an ugly expression.
He had just received the news of Qi Changying’s death through the contract and was considering who the traitor was when his disciple Tian Mozi’s soul aura suddenly collapsed.
This time, he could no longer remain composed. Demonic flames danced on his body, and he was furious like a volcano that was about to erupt.
“Who killed my sect’s successor? You’d better not let me catch you, or your soul will definitely dissipate!”
At this moment, a subordinate walked in with his head lowered. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, he hurriedly knelt on one knee and reported.
“Sect Master, everyone is ready. We’re just waiting for your orders.”
Demon Venerable Yu Hua’s eyes turned red as he spat out a word, “Kill!”
Since Great Qian dared to kill his disciple, don’t blame him for slaughtering all the trash in the royal family!
In this battle, he wanted the royal family of Great Qian to be exterminated!
Great Qian.
Qian Province.
Qian Province.
The Imperial City spanned nearly a hundred kilometers and was huge. It was not square, but eight-sided. It was built with the Eight Trigrams as the foundation and had a top-notch array formation in the world.
There was the Eight Trigrams Heaven Sealing Formation above and eight Demon Suppression Formations below, forming a perfect comprehensive Array Formation. There had never been a huge crisis in the past three thousand years.
At this moment, there was an oppressive feeling that a storm was coming. Not only had the power of the array formation in the Imperial City been activated, but the eight groups of the Qian Dragon Army were also guarding the eight directions. They were on guard and were on high alert.
Qian Wuji led his troops to replace the Berserk Dragon Tribe that had temporarily left to guard Xunmen. He looked at the vast land in the distance with a solemn expression.
“Wuxi just sent news to remind us that the Demon Cult might attack the Imperial City. I wonder if they dare to come.”
He muttered, his heart heavy.
According to the latest intelligence, the Demonic Sect had nurtured many demonic species that could be used to attack the city. If that was the case, there would definitely be a bloody battle.
At the side, an eunuch walked over quickly. As he walked, he said happily, “Your Highness, General Horse and Princess Wuxi have already destroyed the Jinzhou Devil Nest and are rushing back.”
“Already settled?”
Qian Wuji was surprised. That devil nest was not simple. There were at least two Nascent Soul cultivators guarding it. Even if one of them left at the last minute, it would be easy to defend and difficult to attack.
“Yes, not only did he win, but he also killed the Hundred Beast Demon Lord and Tian Mozi. He gained a lot,” the eunuch said happily.
“So powerful!” Qian Wuji was even more surprised. He was a descendant of Great Qian and knew how difficult it was to kill Tian Mozi, who was also a descendant of Sky Demon Cult.
“According to General Ma’s letter, it’s all thanks to His Highness the Crown Prince’s help that we were able to obtain such results.”
The eunuch laughed.
“I helped?”
Qian Wuji was at a loss. When did he help Wuxi and the others attack the Jinzhou Devil Nest?
At most, he had prayed for them. It wouldn’t have affected them too much, right? Perhaps Ma Deyao was flattering him?
This guy really knew how to conduct himself.
Just as he was about to ask more, the eunuch suddenly revealed a look of fear and pointed into the distance. “Your Highness, quickly look at what that is.”
When Qian Wuji saw this, his pupils constricted. He hurriedly flew higher and stared into the distance.
A black cloud appeared on the distant land and approached quickly, like a storm coming.
An Unholy and tyrannical aura gushed out from the black cloud, making Qian Wuji feel suffocated.
“Enemy attack, the demons of the Sky Demon Cult are attacking!”
He shouted and reminded the guards, “Everyone, be on guard!”
Clang! Clang!
The alarm bell echoed, and the array formation in the entire city became even brighter. Countless runes circulated and danced, forming a huge eight trigram diagram in midair.
This map covered a radius of fifty kilometers and enveloped the entire Imperial City. It shook the Void and shone brightly, giving off an extraordinary aura!
The commotion was too great. Whether it was the commoners or cultivators in the Imperial City, they were all alarmed.
They walked out of the house and looked up. The blinking light shone on their different expressions, revealing all kinds of emotions.
The weak were terrified and uneasy, the cultivators were puzzled and afraid, the children who did not understand the world were crying, and the unintelligent cows, Horses, and poultry were restless.
For a moment, the Imperial City was in a tizzy. Everyone was in a state of panic.
“Heavens, what happened? I’ve lived in the Imperial City for more than 80 years, but I’ve never seen such a scene.”
An ordinary old man with a head full of white hair asked the heavens, feeling that he had lived for a long time.
“Hide! We’re in trouble!”
The frightened people reacted, called for their families, and ran back into the house to hide.
This was the only choice for the weak. Even if these houses were no different from paper in the eyes of the powerhouses, to them, this was the only thing that could protect them and bring them some peace of mind.
There were also people who came to a high place and looked into the distance with shocked expressions.
“The Sky Demon Cult’s army is here!”
“The Imperial City is in danger!”
“However, this grand formation is not so easily breached.”
The cultivators in the Imperial City were relatively calm. They more or less knew how powerful the Imperial City’s Array Formation was.
“This time, they dared to attack openly. I’m afraid the situation is not simple.”
“I wonder which sects have joined. The Heavenly Ghost Sect has already been destroyed. Will the Heavenly Corpse Sect, the Yao Moon Palace, and the Heavenly Poison Sect follow them this time?”
“There are demons outside. It’s too late to leave now. We can only wait and see the outcome of the battle between Great Qian and the demonic sects.”
“The biggest cultivator war in three thousand years is about to break out.”
Many cultivators communicated in secret with the same sense of urgency.
As the Demon Cult led the demon army to besiege the Imperial City, the Imperial City, which had been peaceful a moment ago, was instantly in a tizzy and fell into chaos.
Then, the chaos quickly calmed down. The weak hid, and there were only cultivators and troops walking on the streets. A murderous aura enveloped the entire city.
In the Imperial Palace.
A deafening dragon roar sounded as a then thousand-foot-long golden dragon flew out. It was mighty and powerful.
Emperor Qian stood at the head of the dragon. Many cultivator armies quickly gathered from all directions.
“Qian Dragon Armies, and the Eight DemiGods, listen up. Kill the demons with all your might. Don’t let any demons enter the city.”
Emperor Qian ordered with killing intent.
“Die!”
The cultivator army shouted in a low voice. Their killing intent soared into the sky, making many people with heavy hearts feel more confident.
With such an army of cultivators around and them being the defending side, their chances of winning were higher.
In the dark, some people looked at them with ridicule. Then, they joined the resistance to assist the Demonic Sect’s army.
Outside the city, dark clouds pressed down on the city. All kinds of monsters surrounded the Imperial City.
In the distance, Song Shi continued to disguise himself as Qian Wuji and was returning with the Mad Dragon Army. He was forced to stop because he saw the demon army of the demon sect.
“I was still a step too late and couldn’t rush back in time.”
Princess Wu Xi felt regretful.
