Chapter 2: Kill the dragon wherever there is one
In the silence of the crowd, Zuo Lingquan looked up at the sky.
Under the sky, a door opened. A woman in a golden dragon-scale dress, with a black basalt shield hanging behind her and golden dragons surrounding her, slowly floated across the Yunhai Fairy Palace. When she passed through the space crack, her figure had already arrived in this world.
The Nine Sects’ Lords, the Sword Emperor of Zhongzhou, and even the immortal masters and casual cultivators who had not retreated a step at Dengchao Port, all breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, as if they had taken a reassurance pill.
When facing a powerful enemy, showing off one’s claws and teeth represents the fear and uneasiness in one’s heart.
And behind him stood a towering pillar that stood tall and upright. No matter whether the sky was collapsing or the gods and demons were coming to the city, all people could show was calmness.
For the cultivators from other continents, the name Shangguan Yutang was a ‘Valkyrie’, a ‘Barbarian King, Nightmare’, a taboo symbol that could not be disobeyed, offended, or even called by name.
But for the Nine Sects' cultivators, she is the capital for being calm and unhurried.
Whether it is the Lord or the Sword Emperor, all the Nine Sects are afraid of Shangguan Yutang. Even Shang Zhao and Chen Chaoli, who are of the same generation, will privately think about how Shangguan Yutang will react before doing anything.
But everyone in Dongzhou also knows that when a strong enemy comes, this female Hades, who makes people shudder at the mention of her and whom they don't even want to see, is the person they least need to fear. On the contrary, as long as she stands in Dongzhou, whether it is the God of War or the God of Sword, the leader of the alien race or the Lord of the Demon Race, dare not disrespect Dongzhou in the slightest?
Shangguan Yutang does not need to prove herself. When the Demon God stole the pill and destroyed the world, she was unstoppable and shook the gods with her mortal body. She has already proved that nothing in this world can make her retreat half a step.
Now a group of alien races come to the door to challenge, how much of their Taoism can they have the Demon God stealing the pill?
Jiang Chengjian left the hilt of the sword and stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes cast on the figure behind Shangguan Yutang.
Lord Dizhao, Lord Fulong, and Qiu Boyue, who stood between the two horns of the black dragon, also relaxed their hearts for the first time, shifting their attention away from Mei Jinshui and looking at the only pharmacist in the Dongzhou camp.
Dongzhou cultivators over 3,000 years old can hardly avoid having a relationship with Mei Jinshui, because he is the old master of Dongzhou and the only one in the world. If they want to gain a foothold in Dongzhou, they must go to pay homage to him. During the battle of stealing pills, everyone obeyed Mei Jinshui's orders.
But in terms of the depth of feelings, I am afraid no one can compare to Cui Yingying, who is regarded as a daughter by Mei Jinshui.
Last time in Zhongzhou, Cui Yingying lost control of her emotions and almost became an enemy of Dongzhou for Mei Jinshui. Now facing this situation again, Lord Jianhuang is a little worried.
Missing Wen Yeting is just a second-tier sorcerer for Dongzhou, and they don't care at all.
But without Cui Yingying, the only one who can save their lives is the second-rate wealthy Medicine King Tower. In the secular world, everyone knows that food and grass must be sent before the troops move. The same is true for the immortals. It is a different concept to fight with or without a top doctor.
And this time, Cui Yingying did not disappoint everyone.
Cui Yingying followed Shangguan Yutang out and saw her master floating in the air. She did not show any longing or respect on her face. She said angrily:
"Mei Jinshui, why are you breaking your promise?"
This anger is not fake. The last time she was hysterical, it was because Mei Jinshui came back alone, isolated and helpless, and had no one to rely on except her.
And this time when the army was approaching, Cui Yingying completely unloaded her burden. There is no father and son on the battlefield. She is just the Lord of the Nine Sects. There is no connection with the powerful enemy in front of her; even if there is, it is when the enemy army was defeated and the prisoners were punished.
Mei Jinshui seemed to have forgotten the master-disciple relationship, so he ignored the second-tier trash of the Nine Sects who were whimpering and focused his eyes on Shangguan Yutang.
After Shangguan Yutang appeared, he hovered in front of the Dongzhou camp with a cold look in his eyes, and did not speak, because his subordinates had not finished their work.
Zuo Lingquan was favored by the ancient gods and ran away from the second-in-command of Kuibingzhou. No matter what his realm was, his status was already on par with Jiang Chengjian. The right to speak in the immortal family was won through fighting.
Zuo Lingquan stood with a sword in hand, facing the thousands of troops of the alien race, and said loudly:
"If all the subordinates of Mei Xianjun were such weaklings, there would be no need to fight today. It is really hard to find inferior horses in Dongzhou that can match your medium-level horses."
These trash words are used to hit the morale of the opponent. Attacking the heart is better than attacking the city. This is the truth.
The alien race was defeated at the beginning, and the Hunyuan Tianzun Zhang Zhilu was beaten by a junior of the opponent and fled with his head in his hands. Naturally, the atmosphere was a bit wrong.
The Dongzhou camp was in high spirits. Even though no one was mocking or shouting, they could still feel the pride and fighting spirit of the cultivators in the city.
Zhang Zhilu was not seriously injured, so he was naturally annoyed by the loss of such a big man. He said:
"Relying on some strange magic, I just played a trick. Don't be so arrogant."
Zuo Lingquan raised the Jingtang Sword and pointed it at Zhang Zhilu in the alien group:
"You are not good at it, but you are very stubborn. Could this mouth of yours be the immortal weapon forged for you by Shang Lao Mo?"
"You..."
Hunyuan Tianzun Zhang Zhilu was almost angry to death by these words. He wanted to step forward again, but was stopped by someone.
After all, the way of cultivation is that the loser eats dust. If you lose, you have no right to speak. If you cling to it and refuse to admit it, it will only make your side lose face.
Mei Jinshui kept smiling, and only then did he speak:
"You are young and promising. Your personality is exactly the same as Yu Tang's back then."
This is a point that both the good and the evil agree on, but to be honest, the Valkyrie was still a bit arrogant back then, because she was a commoner who fought alone and didn't have so many people to support her.
After Shangguan Yutang finished talking to Zuo Lingquan, he said:
"Mei Jinshui, you came here alone. Have you had enough of your life and want to return to your roots?"
Mei Jinshui brought over 100,000 monks with him, but when fighting in a remote place against another Immortal Lord, these middle and low-level monks were of little use, so being 'alone' was not a problem.
Mei Jinshui hung in the clouds, her voice was elegant: "It doesn't matter whether I came here alone or not. You know my temperament. Now that I'm here, you're 100% sure. Although we have different Taoist paths, we are still our former Taoist friends. , I don’t think you want to fight until the fields are littered with corpses.
"If you are willing to listen to my advice, you'd better put down your weapons. We will still be friends and relatives in the future. Even if you are dissatisfied now, I will let you understand in the future. Time will tell everything."
Shangguan Yutang raised his chin: "Do you want me, Yuyaozhou, to surrender without a fight?"
Mei Jinshui nodded slightly: "I know there is little hope, but I still don't want to hurt the harmony."
Shangguan Yutang said: "You can discuss these matters with them after I die in Tuchochao Port."
Jiang Chengjian said: "How could Lord Mei Xian not know the way in the heart of a practitioner? No one who can stand here today has thought about retreating alive. No need to talk nonsense, if you can step over our corpses, Yuyaozhou is naturally yours."
Mei Jinshui sighed softly and suppressed the smile on his face:
"Immortal cultivators, serving the country and the people, sometimes take the big righteousness and lose the small righteousness. It is really helpless. Since we have different paths, it is really useless to talk too much. However, half of you are my juniors, and I don't want to create too many Those who kill evildoers and have low moral conduct should not get involved.”
As Mei Jinshui spoke, his figure slowly rose into the sky.
Everyone in the Dongzhou camp felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. Shangguan Yutang also frowned slightly, carefully sensing the changes in the world.
Zuo Lingquan had seen the dominance of Yutang's body and had never underestimated an immortal king. He held the hilt of his sword and stared at the sky in order to respond at any time, but the scene he saw still made his eyes show a hint of horror.
A tall woman dressed in white raised her body into the air, with the sun hanging on her back. She spread her slender arms and looked at the vast world of all living things on the sea and land. She spoke softly with her red lips and a low voice sounded from the sky and the earth:
"Meng Zhang."
thunderbolt
As soon as the words fell, there was thunder.
Rolling black clouds poured into the sky out of thin air, covering the entire sky in the blink of an eye.
The lightning flashed through the thick dark clouds, so the monks were shocked to find that above the sky and behind the sea of clouds, there was a shadow of a huge dragon with no head in front and no tail behind.
The giant dragon was tumbling in the sea of clouds, unable to see the whole picture. After a moment, it poked its green head into the sea of clouds, and a majestic dragon head appeared from above the plum near the water. Two dragon whiskers fluttered in the strong wind, opened the dragon sky, and let out a vicissitudes of dragon roar:
"hold head high"
The sound moves the sky!
Under the furious roar of the angry dragon, the black dragon Qiu Boyue sat down fell instantly, and tens of thousands of air-controlling monks were forced to the ground. Those who could still maintain their air-controlling postures, both good and evil, totaled only a hundred people.
The Sword Emperor, the Lord of Dongzhou, and even the foreign monks all looked horrified. Even though they had never seen the dragon in its true form, they recognized the sky-shading dragon immediately through the various rumors about Mei Jinshui. The giant dragon represents the co-owner of East, West and East, and the human incarnation of Shenjun Meng Zhang is the Qinglong!
Even if Mei Jinshui just used his divine power to summon the illusion of the blue dragon, the vast divine power it brought was still not something ordinary people could compete with.
Zuo Lingquan felt that the surrounding world was violently turbulent. Every inch of land and seawater in Dengchao Port, which was originally located at the rear, was instantly stretched and pushed into the distant sky.
The same is true for the alien camp on the opposite side. Tens of thousands of people flew back overseas like a cloud blown away by the strong wind.
This method is not unfamiliar. It is the special skill of Lord Dizhao, "The Country is Like a Picturesque Country." Zuo Lingquan had personally experienced it once during the nine sects' alliance.
But the same method, placed in the hands of ordinary people and placed in the hands of immortal kings, are completely different concepts.
But in the blink of an eye, the original harbor turned into an endless flat sea, as if a non-existent area had been inserted between heaven and earth.
The middle and low-level monks who were in the harbor and on the sea were pushed thousands of miles away by the unstoppable force.
The elders of various sects and the giants of the Sword Emperor City tried their best to get closer to the center of the world, but they were inevitably chased further and further away. In the end, they could only forcefully maintain their positions to ensure that the frontal battlefield was not lost from their field of vision to ensure their final dignity. .
With one word spoken, the gods and demons dispersed!
With the advent of Mei Jinshui's magical power, only the Lord Dongzhou, the Sword Emperor, and more than a dozen foreign heroes were left. If Shangguan Yutang hadn't been willing to protect him, Cui Yingying would have been pushed away from the immortals and demons. battlefield.
And this powerful magical power that affects thousands of miles around and is irreversible by mortals is just a matter of Mei Jinshui casually vacating the place before the battle!
In the blink of an eye, Dengchao Port, where thousands of immortals gathered, turned into an empty and lonely desolate sea.
The people who are still here are the real immortals, and there are very few people in this land of Jiuzhou who can determine the trend of the world. The rest are all ants!
The giant dragon loomed in the clouds and mist, like a dragon wall embedded in the sky.
Mei is near the water, under the suspended dragon's head, looking down at the earth from a bird's eye view:
"Those who understand the gap should retreat on their own; there are some things that pride and Taoism cannot make up for, so don't die worthless."
After a round of screening, there were only ten people left in Dongzhou: Shangguan Yutang, Cui Yingying, Zuo Lingquan, Shang Zhao, Chen Chaoli, Qiu Boyue; Jiang Chengjian, Yun Hongye, Huang He, and Jiang Taiqing.
After seeing this kind of magic, most of the ten people knew that with their skills, they might not be able to withstand Mei Jinshui's first wave of attacks, but no one retreated.
Because they were behind Dongzhou, and there was no way to retreat.
The foreign race had more variables.
How strong Mei Jinshui was, the Valkyrie might be as strong as him. After feeling that they could not make a splash in the battle, the former Dongzhou Sword Emperor Ming Richou and other top immortals all consciously withdrew from the battlefield, leaving only four small leaders from the two northwest continents.
From this point of view, Dongzhou still had a large number of people.
But in fact, at most, Shangguan Yutang and Mei Jinshui were on the line, and Yutang had an extra wave of super soldiers. The heroes of Dongzhou could not feel the slightest bit of pride in their hearts that "the advantage is mine".
Shangguan Yutang grasped the golden mace floating beside him, without looking back:
"Zuo Lingquan, you retreat."
Jiang Chengjian also spoke: "My master Zhu Wuchang once said during the battle of stealing elixir: 'Today, we will end here, but the grass still has roots, so why should we be afraid?' We can lose this battle, but the spark of Dongzhou cannot be extinguished, so you retreat."
Zuo Lingquan stood at the front of the Dongzhou camp with the Tianguan Sword in his hand, and responded calmly:
"I, Zuo Lingquan, have a sword in my hand. Even if there are millions of people, I can't stop it. Why should I be afraid of Qinglong!"
Qiu Boyue learned from Huang Jinghe that his great-granddaughter Niuniu She had some complaints about her relationship with Zuo Lingquan, but she smiled when she heard this:
"As swordsmen, we are worthy of our love for everyone we meet and our conscience for everything we do. When facing a strong enemy, how can we retreat without fighting?"
Yun Hongye, who is known as the 'Second Sword Master', also said:
"I have practiced swordsmanship all my life, just to be free and regretless. If I retreat, how can I be worthy of the three feet of snow in my hands and the people waiting for me to return home?"
Most swordsmen in the world are romantic, and they speak with a carefree air, but they are still sharp as swordsmen should be.
Compared with them, traditional cultivators such as Shang Zhao and Chen Chaoli are not very good at flirting. The Emperor Zhao held the sword for a long time and only said one sentence:
"I second the motion."
Shangguan Yutang didn't say anything more, because she never thought she would lose this battle.
After everyone swore to fight to the death, Shangguan Yutang held the golden long mace in his hand, and the thirty-six sections of the mace lit up with spells. His slender legs slightly bent, and then soared into the sky, his eyes pointed directly at the Azure Dragon.
Boom
The sea area within sight was instantly sunken under the huge energy, turning into a giant sea bowl.
Even as friendly forces, Zuo Lingquan and others were in the sunken area, and were directly pressed into the sea water by the sudden strong energy.
The Lord and the Sword Emperor, who were calm just now, showed horror again at this time.
In the minds of most mountaintop cultivators, Shangguan Yutang and other immortals are very strong, but the upper limit is also one-on-two against the other two elders, or one-on-five against the other five lords. They still fought back and forth, and others are not without a chance of winning.
This inference is supported by actual battle records, and it is also the upper limit of the immortals they can imagine.
But they obviously overlooked that the record supporting this inference occurred in the battle of stealing pills three thousand years ago!
After the war of stealing pills, there was a three-thousand-year long "peaceful time". There were frictions between good and evil, but there was no peak battle in which the immortal monarch fell.
The way to longevity was blocked. In the eyes of ordinary people, the immortal monarch was already at the end of the way to longevity. No matter how strong he was, he would inevitably progress slowly. They would catch up sooner or later.
But the fact is obviously not so.
The imbalance of yin and yang in heaven and earth blocked the path of cultivators' promotion, but did not block the cultivators' talents and understanding.
Before the way to longevity was cut off, the immortal emperor dominated the nine continents. The goal of the immortal monarchs was to be promoted to the immortal emperor, with realm as the first priority, and their talents and understanding were used for this.
Due to resources, there could only be one immortal emperor at the same time. If they climbed up, they would ascend. In order to ensure that they could stay in the nine continents for a period of time, they could only choose to stay where they were.
After the way to longevity was cut off, the world naturally underwent earth-shaking changes. The most notable point was that the situation of cultivators at the end of the road changed from "the immortal emperor dominated the nine continents" to "one person facing nine kings".
After reaching the top, there are still nine competitors around you, eyeing the territory, descendants, opportunities and inheritance that you rely on for survival, etc., and it is possible that they have different ways in their hearts and regard you as a mortal enemy. You can only trust yourself, and you can imagine how strong the sense of urgency for survival is.
In order to ensure their own survival, the Ten Immortals can only use the current conditions to the extreme when their realm cannot be raised. Even if they can only lead others by a little bit, they must do their best to fight for it.
What's more terrifying is that the other nine people also realized this and had the same idea.
No one dared to reveal their cards, and could only rack their brains secretly to enhance their combat power. No one knew how far the opponent had gone, and no one knew whether they were the "shame of the Ten Immortals". No one dared to relax for a quarter of an hour, and could only force themselves to become stronger.
Three thousand years of "peaceful times" have not changed much for ordinary cultivators, but for the immortals, not knowing the depth of their opponents for such a long time has turned the land of Jiuzhou into a "dark forest" full of immortals and demons. The longer the time, the more cautious they are. In order to prevent falling behind, they can only squeeze themselves as much as possible to comfort their fear of the unknown.
This can be seen from Shangguan Yutang swallowing the remaining soul of the thief pill and studying Zuo Lingquan's Taiyin power.
The "extreme realm" of martial arts, which represented the end point in ancient times, has now become the starting point for mountain-top cultivators, which was forced out under this almost cruel chain of suspicion.
Before the extinction of the longevity path, there was the dictatorship of the Immortal Emperor and the chaos of the demons above the Immortal Lord. It was impossible for the Immortal Lord to control the vast amount of cultivation resources at the top; in the early stage of the extinction of the longevity path, the human race was still united, and there was no such urgent situation where the good and the evil were evenly matched and could take lives at any time.
The people and monsters who can be ranked as Immortal Lords are all freaks selected from the entire Jiuzhou creatures. Their talents are definitely better than Jiang Chengjian and others. In this environment, if they don’t evolve into monsters, they don’t deserve to be Immortal Lords.
In this unprecedented situation, the current top ten Immortal Lords in Jiuzhou are not surprisingly the strongest generation of Immortal Lords in ancient and modern times, and they are also the strongest Immortal Emperors in ancient and modern times if they become Immortal Emperors; they are still Wangji because the highest level in this world is only Wangji, but it does not mean that they can only cultivate to Wangji at most, or that they only have the strength of the ancient Immortal Lords.
Shang Zhao, Jiang Chengjian and others have been separated from the view of combat power for thousands of years, and they still understand the Immortal Lords with the limit of the same realm. Little do they know that the current top ten Immortal Lords are no longer in the same latitude as them!
Boom boom boom
Shangguan Yutang's Qi force bent the sea surface, and his body twisted the space. Outsiders could only see a golden stream of light, which instantly split the sky with rolling dark clouds into countless pieces.
Thunder flashed in the sky, and the suffocating Qi force swept the entire sea.
Zuo Lingquan wanted to help at first, or go to fight Zhang Zhilu on the opposite side.
As a result, when this scene came out, the minions of both the good and evil sides were forced to retreat at the same time. They could only look horrified and concentrate on sensing the surroundings to avoid being killed by the aftermath in front.
Jiang Chengjian had long wanted to see the immortals fight, but when he really saw it, he found that he couldn't understand it at all with his Taoism, and he didn't dare to intervene rashly. He could only judge from the weather moving overseas that Shangguan Yutang, with the Xuanwu shield, was still slightly superior to the warlock.
Cui Yingying was directly confused, couldn't see anything clearly, held her breath and dared not speak, and subconsciously held Zuo Lingquan's hand.
Zuo Lingquan pulled Cui Yingying and was forced back by the aftermath. They soon retreated dozens of miles away. They could only hear the roar of the dragon in the sky, and it was difficult to see the situation.
He was worried about Yu Tang's safety, and gritted his teeth and said:
"Seniors, is there any way to help?"
Qiu Boyue dissuaded him: "When the giants on the top of the mountain take action, they hate the younger generation to join in the fun. Even if they can't help, they may be distracted. Wait and see, and it should be possible to see the outcome."
The higher the level of cultivation, the faster the fight is. Normally, the victory or defeat can be decided in a few breaths.
But the two immortals have too deep a foundation, and they have at least 8,000 hidden cards. If they fight with all their strength, it will probably take most of the time just to use their tricks.
Seeing that he could not help, Zuo Lingquan could only say:
"Won't the immortals from Huajunzhou come to help?"
Jiang Chengjian said: "If the aliens dare to come, they must have a backup plan. As long as other immortals act rashly, the aliens will make a feint to the east and attack in the west, and the losses will be immeasurable. They can't bury their own foundation for Yuyaozhou. In this case, they can only rely on themselves, or after being defeated, wait for the foreign continent to prepare for defense and gather a large army to counterattack."
Zuo Lingquan frowned, knowing that it was useless to rely on others in this situation. He held the Tianguan Divine Sword, knowing that he could not rely too much on Taiyin Divine Lord, but at this time he could only whisper to the ancient god.
Taiyin Divine Lord was sealed, and all actions that were conducive to restoring the balance of yin and yang would be favored by the way of heaven. Zuo Lingquan wanted to borrow a large amount of Taiyin divine power, which was obviously conducive to the balance of yin and yang.
Therefore, when Zuo Lingquan thought about it, he felt the power as if he had divine help, and the colorful chaos in the sky began to become traceable.
But before Zuo Lingquan had time to be happy, he felt what despair was!
Boom
After a thunderclap erupted in the sky, the blue and golden streamers separated and were simultaneously repelled for dozens of miles.
Shangguan Yutang reappeared without any injuries, but the basalt shield that returned to his back had obvious traces of battle damage.
Mei Jinshui's white dress seemed intact, but her chest was rising and falling quickly, and it was obvious that her body was not as good as it looked.
But everyone's eyes were not on the two immortals who had just escaped from the battle.
Boom
The endless green waves raised a huge splash of water, and a white giant python rushed out from the bottom of the sea, soaring into the sky, and appeared behind Mei Jinshui, and a strong pressure came at the same time.
Jiang Chengjian and others looked horrified, wondering what kind of dragon with white hair it was, and then they heard "boom boom boom".
One, two, three...
But in the blink of an eye, nine long white tails soared into the sky, like nine dragons tumbling, covering the overseas skyline.
"Demon Ancestor?!"
Chen Chaoli's eyes were horrified. Even though he had conquered countless demons in his life, this was the first time he had seen a demon of this size. In his impression, the only demon larger than this was probably the body of the Demon God Stealing Pill.
As Chen Chaoli exclaimed, the sea surface in front of him bulged, and the sea water slid down the hair outline like a waterfall, revealing a fox head with blue eyes, looking at the eastern continent.
Shangguan Yutang was calm and fearless, but the giants of the Dongzhou Immortal Family and even the nine elders who were watching on the land were pale, knowing that they were doomed today.
Shangguan Yutang was close to the water, relying on the invulnerability of the strongest martial artist, and he had an advantage against the sorcerer after all, but there was another immortal king, and he was the leader of the demon race whose physique was far superior to that of the human race. How could he fight?
Let’s not talk about the nine-tailed fox’s fighting power. It is said that the nine-tailed fox has nine lives. If one dies, there is one less. Until now, the demon ancestor has not lost a single tail. How did Shangguan Yutang kill the demon ancestor nine times when Mei Jinshui was standing behind him?
Boom boom
The surging sea water fell to the ground, and the nine-tailed demon fox, whose body was as big as a mountain, showed its true form in the world. A voice also rang out from the fox's mouth:
"Jinshui, you haven't made much progress in these years."
The voice sounded like that of an old man. Judging from the age of the demon ancestor, he was also one of the oldest creatures in Jiuzhou. However, his body and breath that covered the sky and the sun did not feel the slightest bit of old age.
Mei Jinshui was suspended in the air and responded calmly:
"I just don't want to risk my life. It's better to negotiate than to fight and let both sides bleed into a river."
The nine-tailed fox squatted on the sea and looked down at the woman in the golden skirt half hanging in the air:
"Stop it, Shangguan Yutang. I admire you very much. With such strength and understanding, killing each other is a blasphemy against heaven and earth. Why do you insist on it?"
Although the nine-tailed fox is the leader of the demon clan, it is contrary to the common sense of cultivation that this demon clan leader is considered a "peace faction" among the ten great immortals.
The great way advocated by the nine-tailed fox is "all spirits are brothers, do not fight against each other", which means that all the creatures on the land of Jiuzhou are brothers born from the same heaven and earth. Let's not kill each other. Let's unite and go outside to conquer cities and territories, and then divide the kings to control a piece of heaven and earth.
This idea is undoubtedly beautiful, and even respected by many human races. As long as it succeeds, it can solve the irreconcilable contradictions between species.
But the feasibility of this method is very slim, because only the Immortal Emperor can ascend to the sky, and only the Immortal Lord and other vested beneficiaries can go out, and the people at the bottom will still suffer.
Secondly, the examples of several times of the descent of the sky demon in ancient times have proved that the tribes outside the sky may be "foxes of the same hill" with the demon ancestors; when the way of longevity is opened, it will enter a hunting ground with endless wars.
Shangguan Yutang's Taoism is extremely firm. Even if the way of longevity will eventually be restored, she will let the people of Jiuzhou have more peace and stability; even if it is only a sixty years in the blink of an eye of the immortals, it is a hard-earned life for mortals!
Facing the Nine-tailed Fox's persuasion of "Brothers work together to open the gate of heaven", Shangguan Yutang said:
"Without you, how could Jiuzhou kill each other? If you really want to resolve the eternal hatred of living beings, you should retreat to the mountains and forests to protect your own land, because now is the most peaceful time for the demon race and the human race. When I destroy the alien race, I will also maintain the status quo."
The Nine-tailed Fox didn't believe this nonsense at all.
The dignity of a tribe depends on its own strength, not the pity of foreign races; the demon race can have its current status entirely because of the internal fighting of the human race, and they have become a force to be won over.
When the human race ends the internal fighting, completes the great unification, and occupies the northwest land, the demon race's fate can be imagined, and the bloody history of tens of thousands of years ago is there.
At that time, even if Shangguan Yutang keeps his promise and does not deliberately "abuse animals", he will make them understand that "pigs are pigs, dogs are dogs, don't really regard yourself as a human being".
The nine-tailed fox raised its head, and its voice lost its friendliness:
"There is a way to live, why take the road of death? This master and Jinshui are talking to you kindly because of your achievements in this life. How can you defend Yuyaozhou with your own strength? This master only asks you one question, will you surrender or not?"
The sea breeze is blowing, and the endless blue waves reflect the nine tails that cover the sky and the sun.
The woman in a golden dragon scale dress, holding a golden mace, looked up at the mountain-like white fox. Her body size is not proportional, but it is definitely not small.
Because this is the countless times she has looked up at the steep peaks in front of her.
That year, when she was four years old, she carried an iron stick and a shield. After the whole village died, she stepped onto the mountain alone. When she saw the endless peaks outside the mountain, she set her ambition that no matter whether there were thousands of mountains or bottomless abyss in front of her, she would never stop her steps and let her take a step back.
Because what she was looking for might be behind those mountains.
Along the way, she grew taller and older, and the mountains she encountered became higher and bigger, but her eyes never changed, and her steps never stopped.
Now, she has stood on the top of the highest mountain, and her vision is no longer blocked. The highest things she can see are just a few mountains at the same level as her feet.
The mountains that used to be thousands of feet high did not stop the helpless four-year-old girl; now, how can a few hills that are not even as high as her stop her steps!
Shangguan Yutang took a breath, raised his hand to take off the dragon-patterned hair ornaments on his black hair, and threw it to Zuo Lingquan below.
Buzz
It was also at this moment that the world began to shake.
It was like a clear spring suddenly fell into a piece of red Luo iron. The spring water that was originally calm was boiling and agitated, and the entire wellhead became unstable.
Zuo Lingquan caught the warm golden hair ornament and felt that the whole world was shaking. He was suspended in the air, but it seemed that he was standing on a volcano that was about to erupt.
The major lords and sword emperors were shocked when they saw this scene, because they had never seen Shangguan Yutang in such a violent state.
Mei Jinshui and the nine-tailed demon fox had never seen it before, but they could see that Shangguan Yutang had just limited his own strength.
The reason for doing so was that the terrible power currently displayed was simply beyond the control of mortals. This could be seen from the irregular space cracks that appeared around Shangguan Yutang, as if the world could collapse at any time.
Mei Jinshui's eyes showed a strange color, and the nine-tailed fox's blue animal eyes also revealed a little solemnity.
Shangguan Yutang's black hair was unrestrained and drifted in the boiling air waves, and his eyes were still indifferent like a god.
The golden dragon-scale long skirt on her body stretched out under the attention of everyone, covering her hands and neck, and even to her cheeks, gradually turning the extremely tall Shangguan Yutang into a golden-armored god.
She raised her long mace and pointed it at the demon fox that blocked the sky and the sun in front of her, and Mei Jinshui who was hanging under the blue dragon:
"You don't regard the heroes of Dongzhou as your opponents, so when will I regard you as my opponents? From the day I stood on the top of the mountain, I thought that I would fight nine people alone. Even the way of heaven could not stop me. How dare a mere mortal dare to be presumptuous in front of me!"
The vast pressure forcibly overshadowed the illusion of the blue dragon in the sky and the nine-tailed demon fox on the sea.
Shangguan Yutang's current posture did not dare to be said to be the power of the Immortal Emperor, but at least he was a 'pseudo-emperor'.
The righteous and evil cultivators who had already despaired of the gap saw this scene, and even if they were all the pride of heaven in the cultivation of the way, they also felt like giving up struggling and lying down.
Zuo Lingquan was also shocked by this terrible power, but after being shocked, he vaguely sensed that the changes in the surrounding space were not right. Through the mysterious power of the sun, he could feel that Yu Tang was trying his best to suppress the surrounding world. It felt like a child dragging a thousand-pound giant blade in a fight, which was very strenuous.
This state is obviously very dangerous. Although uncontrollable power is also power, when fighting, all kinds of unpredictable flaws are bound to appear.
The nine-tailed fox and Mei Jinshui also realized this. Although they were surprised by the momentum of Shangguan Yu Tang, they did not flee in panic.
After all, they are all immortals. They have been recuperating for thousands of years. Who doesn't have the confidence of "one against nine"?
The nine-tailed fox stood up, plunged into the sea with all four limbs, and the hair on his body stood up and turned green and red, as if the whole body was on fire. The terrifying aura forced Jiang Chengjian and others standing behind Shangguan Yu Tang to retreat a step.
Mei Jinshui also held his hands in the air, and his figure slowly rose up, merging into the brow of the blue dragon phantom in the sky. Then the blue dragon's eyes showed flowing light and human emotions. From the look, it was obviously Mei Jinshui's eyes!
The demon fox appeared in the world and turned into a dragon!
Even if the two immortals showed their strongest postures at the same time, they could not suppress Shangguan Yutang, who was almost boiling with blood.
Behind Shangguan Yutang hung a huge black tortoise shield, and his fighting spirit soared to the sky. He stretched out his left hand, and a similar golden mace condensed in his palm. He looked directly at the demon fox in front of him and suddenly attacked.
Boom
This sprint instantly tore the entire sea surface, revealing the flattened seabed below, and pulled a thousand-foot gap between heaven and earth.
"Die!"
Shangguan Yutang shouted, holding two golden maces and leaping into the air, like a god beating a drum, smashing down at the nine-tailed demon fox as big as a mountain.
On the double maces, what was emanating was no longer the true energy, but two tails, one black and one white. The white light was as big as substance, while the black light was fluctuating violently, bringing about thunderous noises that tore the world apart.
Jiang Chengjian and others recognized this move, which was Shangguan Yutang's "Shen Tu" that shook the pill thief head-on.
But the momentum of this attack was no longer the same as before!
The nine-tailed fox's arrogance surged, and it opened its huge mouth. A blue-red light column spurted out of its mouth. The power was so great that it brought about a shock wave that instantly dispersed the clouds in the sky, revealing the true body of a ten-thousand-foot-long dragon.
The blue-red light column smashed directly into the golden-armored woman in the air. According to her body size, she would be swallowed up.
But what shocked everyone was that Shangguan Yutang, holding the double maces, smashed directly into the light column head-on. The black and white tails collided, and the area they were in instantly disappeared into a dark void, and the light column was also hit in front of him and scattered.
Sizzle
Amid a piercing roar, Shangguan Yutang fell from the sky and turned into a black line. The line was not a phantom, but was directly shattered into nothingness.
However, in an instant, the black line fell on the mountain-like body of the nine-tailed demon fox. A black hole appeared on the huge head that was howling to the sky, piercing the head and neck bones, and then passing through the spine and smashing into the seabed behind.
Boom
Everything happened in the blink of an eye. When everyone reacted, Shangguan Yutang was already holding a double mace and standing on the opposite side of the sea, not far from Zhang Zhilu.
The nine-tailed demon fox that originally covered the sky and the sun collapsed in front of everyone and slowly smashed into the sea. The blue eyes lost their vitality in shock! ? !
Boom...
Except for the churning of the sea, there was silence between heaven and earth.
Zuo Lingquan and Cui Yingying opened their mouths together. Even though they expected the ancestor to be powerful, they were stunned by this.
Killed instantly with one move, can this be called a battle of the same level?
Flutter
Among all the people, Hunyuan Tianzun Zhang Zhilu was the first to be awakened by the violent Qi because he was too close to the Valkyrie. He was so scared that he knelt down on the spot and raised his hands, not knowing what to do.
And many of the foreign cultivators who were watching the battle hundreds of miles away from the back also sat down on the sea. After all, there was no immortal king in front of them, and the distance of a hundred miles was too close.
"The first life, eight times left."
Shangguan Yutang held two maces, and his fighting spirit was so strong that people dared not look directly at him. His words even carried the excitement of not showing off his skills for a thousand years and finally meeting an opponent.
The nine-tailed fox, a great immortal king, really didn't leave so easily. After his body fell, a tail behind him disintegrated and dispersed, turning into streams of light that poured into the holes in his head and back, and his absent-minded blue eyes quickly emerged with divine light.
"The Valkyrie is worthy of her reputation!"
The nine-tailed fox had not yet completely fallen to the ground, but it staggered and turned over again, shaking its head. When it stood up completely, it had recovered its full strength, but the tails behind it had become eight.
The people of Dongzhou were surprised to see this scene, but they were not panicked.
Because since Shangguan Yutang can kill instantly for the first time, he can kill for the second and third times. If he can't fight, no matter how much life he has and how much blood he has, he is just a big sandbag.
But it is a pity that Mei Jinshui knows how much potential Shangguan Yutang has. Now that he is here, how can he not consider the situation that the nine-tailed fox cannot beat him.
The nine-tailed fox turned around and looked at Shangguan Yutang, his eyes filled with compassion for "You are not guilty of war":
"If I had only nine tails, I would indeed be defeated today. Unfortunately, I did not come alone."
"hold head high"
As the words fell, the green dragon above the sky let out a long groan.
A green stream of light emerged from the giant dragon's eyes, shining on the head of the nine-tailed demon fox that covered the sky and the sun.
Then everyone was shocked to find that a long tail on the back of the eight-tailed demon fox was divided into two, gradually becoming thicker, but in a moment, it turned into nine long tails swaying in the air, just like before the battle.
"..."
Heaven and earth lost their voice again.
Shangguan Yutang also fell silent. Although his face was covered by his mask and his expression couldn't be seen, he probably frowned.
The Azure Dragon Master grows and revives. As the Azure Dragon Divine Envoy, it is not easy to reverse the cycle of reincarnation and bring living beings back to life, but it is not difficult to restore vitality to living beings.
Shangguan Yutang knew that Mei Jinshui had the ability to save lives and heal the wounded, but he did not expect that after thousands of years, Mei Jinshui had mastered the power of the blue dragon to such an extent that even the nine-tailed demon fox could return to its full power in an instant.
As a result, the nine-tailed fox, which has nine lives to tolerate mistakes, has become almost immortal, and there is no possibility of defeat.
The nine-tailed demon fox once again set up its formation: "I can fight with you for seven days and seven nights. I wonder how many times you can kill me with your Qihai?"
Above the sky, Mei Jinshui's voice also sounded:
"Yutang, I dare to come back, even if everything is possible. I haven't tried my best yet, and you have no chance of winning, so why bother to fight in vain?"
Even though Zuo Lingquan was watching the fight between gods, he could see the current situation at this time. Even if Yutang's combat power was so powerful that he could fight ten, in this situation, he could only fight for the energy reserves of the sea; if both sides were at the same level, , will definitely be consumed by the opponent.
Seeing that the chance of winning was almost gone, Zuo Lingquan gritted his teeth and flew around the nine-tailed demon fox, arriving near Shangguan Yutang.
Cui Yingying, as the only mountain top doctor in Dongzhou, also followed Shangguan Yutang:
"Yutang, let me help you deal with them."
Seeing this, Jiang Chengjian and others also flew up, landed behind Shangguan Yutang, and said:
"How can I give up before the last drop of blood is shed? I want to see how many times Mei Jinshui can save this monster!"
In contrast, the foreign heroes have no intention of ending up, because the nine heroes of Dongzhou combined cannot make up for the gap of one immortal king. This move is nothing more than a more dignified death.
Shangguan Yutang took a deep breath: "Kill its nine lives at once, or take Mei Jianshui directly. This battle can be won."
Before Mei Jinshui rescued the wounded, the difficulty of knocking off nine tails of the nine-tailed fox at once was self-evident. No matter where the nine-tailed fox stood as a target, it might not be possible.
But compared with taking Mei Jinshui directly, this difficulty is still lower, because until now, no one has discovered where Mei Jinshui's true form is. This is the real "divine hiding".
"kill!"
Jiang Cheng's sword eyes were filled with determination to fight to the death, and he attacked the nine-tailed demon fox with one sword.
Qiu Boyue, Yun Hongye, Huang He, Jiang Taiqing and others followed closely behind, breaking through the sea and leaving four wakes on the sea.
Shang Zhao and Chen Chaoli were both sorcerers. At this time, they took out their magical weapons and displayed their magical powers, pouring out huge firepower from behind.
Cui Yingying made secrets with her hands and blessed Shangguan Yutang with all the tantric techniques she knew.
Zuo Lingquan also picked up his sword, followed the five swordsmen of Dongzhou, and rushed towards the nine-tailed demon fox soaring into the sky with arrogance.
Inland, Lord Biyue Di Yang, Lord Qingdu Li Jianyang, Yaowang Pagoda Patriarch, and several Zhongzhou Sword Emperors who were originally sticking to their local areas realized that the situation in East Continent might be over and there was no need to stick to it anymore. At this time, they all rushed over.
These people have no way to influence the situation of the war. They are involved in the battlefield and die without any chance of survival, but they still move forward indomitably!
Because this is the dignity that a righteous hero should have, even if the entire continent is dead and destroyed, no one will escape or say 'surrender' under the oppression of the alien race, and will be a sitting duck for others.
Shangguan Yutang looked at the heroes of Dongzhou and recalled the world-destroying battle that year.
At that time, everyone was forced to annihilate their clans and would die if they did not fight, so they had no choice but to form an iron plate.
But this time is different. This time, all Dongzhou monks have a way out. They only need to lower their heads to preserve their family fortune and continue to live forever.
But this time, no one left. What drove them was not the former genocide, but the unparalleled belief that they were the right side and could not bow to the evil!
Doesn't this also mean that what she, the leader, has done for three thousand years is right?
Justice prevails in people's hearts. What she has done to Yuyaozhou in the past three thousand years has been seen by everyone.
If she takes the wrong path, these relationships are complicated, and even the heroes of Dongzhou who have had issues with her, why should they follow her and not be afraid of death?
"With everyone united, the demon can still be destroyed. How can this battle be invincible?"
Shangguan Yutang shouted in a deep voice, raised his mace and charged at the nine-tailed demon fox again, but in an instant he was in front of the heroes of Dongzhou.
boom
The sky collapses and the sea collapses, sword energy rages between heaven and earth, and light scatters.
More than ten top monks, surrounding the mountain-like nine-tailed demon fox, exhausted all their knowledge in this life and shook the two unshakable mountains in front of them.
Everyone was almost crazy, and the nine-tailed fox fell before everyone as expected.
But what made people despair was that no matter how fast the sword in his hand was, no matter how powerful the magic was, this nine-tailed fox standing at the top of the demon clan always stood up with its white hair shaking after they exhausted everything.
Zuo Lingquan tried to use the power of Taiyin to chop half of the nine-tailed fox's head into powder with one sword, but still failed to limit Mei Jinshui's supernatural power.
This was when Mei Jinshui really didn't want to kill his former junior and didn't deliberately take action.
If Mei Jinshui used the magic of supernatural power, the only one who could charge here fearlessly and again and again would probably be Shangguan Yutang.
No matter how strong Shangguan Yutang was, she was still a human being, not a god, nor a messenger of God. She was just a country girl who relied on her mortal body and used an indomitable spirit to climb to the top of the mountain.
She can kill her opponent a hundred times, and her opponent can stand up again a thousand times. Her fighting spirit has not faded, but her physique will eventually come to an end.
Gradually, Shangguan Yutang's speed of killing the nine-tailed fox slowed down, and it became necessary to hit it twice to kill it, and then three times.
And the demon ancestor, with the support of the nine-tailed body and Mei Jinshui, although the loss was not small, even the hair remained bright and beautiful.
If nothing unexpected happens, this war of attrition will end with Shangguan Yutang dying of exhaustion.
Shangguan Yutang may also realize this, but she does not want to die under a mountain.
Even if she dies in battle, she will stand on the top of the mountain and prove to the world that from ancient times to the present, in the nine continents and four seas, no creature can stand on her head!
Even if she dies in battle, she will let the two villains in front of her who rely on the favor of heaven die in front of her first, and dare not set foot on Yuyaozhou!
Shangguan Yutang's arrogance became more and more violent, but the action of charging the formation stopped, and he also put down the golden mace in his hand.
In the shaking of heaven and earth, Shangguan Yutang clenched his right fist, and black and white thunder surrounded his fist. Fine cracks appeared on the golden armor of his right arm, and the space around him was sucked and gathered on his right hand.
After Zuo Lingquan noticed the abnormal movement, he knew that Shangguan Yutang wanted to risk his life, and he fell into a rage in an instant.
Zuo Lingquan didn't care about what was good and evil at all. Whether the way of longevity could be opened or not had nothing to do with him. He only cared about the few people around him.
After walking so far together, if Yutang died in front of him, even if he died in battle and fell into the Nine Nether Hell, he would not be able to forgive his own incompetence.
At this moment, Zuo Lingquan's thirst for power reached its extreme.
Zuo Lingquan realized his potential power and knew that using that power might cause any changes, and might even help Taiyin Shenjun break out of the seal, making the entire righteous path fail.
But so what?
The way of immortality was opened, and at worst he would do everything to seal it again. The people around him died in front of him. What did the peaceful days in this world have to do with him?
"Huh"
Zuo Lingquan knew all the possible consequences, but he was determined. He held the Tianguan Sword, his blood boiling, and exuded a violent and violent aura that was almost possessed by a demon.
Shangguan Yutang noticed the change in Zuo Lingquan and wanted to stop him.
But she didn't stop him because she thought Zuo Lingquan was wrong, but because she didn't want to rely on a man.
And if the way of immortality was really opened, she didn't know how to face this man who could abandon the way she insisted on for her.
As a woman, she was happy that such a man cherished her so much; but as the leader of the righteous way, she couldn't accept this unforgettable love.
Rumble
The world shook, and just when Shangguan Yutang was about to sacrifice himself and smash the nine-tailed fox and the space where Mei Jinshui was at the same time into nothingness, a person appeared.
A person who everyone had forgotten, but understood Shangguan Yutang's thoughts better than anyone else!
A person who is ignored by everyone, but is also a natural divine messenger, and can be compared with Mei Jinshui!
"Dare to hit my wife! Tuanzi, spray it!"
"Jijiji..."
A deafening... let's call it a roar, came from the coast, accompanied by an earthquake.
Everyone looked back in shock, but saw that a sea of red clouds appeared over the southern continent at some point.
A huge monster stepped over the mountains under the sea of clouds and walked towards the sea step by step.
Everyone looked carefully through the steaming water mist, but saw that the huge monster, from a distance, was a... ball? ? !
Halfway through the giant beast, it passed by Takutian Wangba, and kicked him into the sea with a claw. The stunned Huang Ji was so angry that he dared not speak! ? ?
Both the good and evil, countless immortals, fell into a weird silence at the same time...
