Chapter 244 – Saints Fall! Preparing for the Battle of Zhenmu City!
Chapter 244 – Sage Fall! Preparing for Battle Zhen Demon City!
The Great Hall of Deliberation.
Crowds of powerhouses gathered here, and the Heads and Elders of all veins converged here, the atmosphere incomparably grave.
“The Holy Son has arrived!”
“Holy Son!”
Wang Xiu stepped in, the head of each vein nodded, and many elders rose to salute in honor.
He nodded slightly and looked around, noticing the appearance of many unfamiliar figures.
All of them had powerful breaths and old looks, they were the hidden underpinnings of the various veins, and many of them had survived the war that year, and were of the same generation as Ji Yan and the others, but they would not appear easily on weekdays, and even at the Sacred Son’s Inauguration Ceremony, they had not seen these people before.
Wang Xiu heart thumped, really something big?
“People are all here, then let’s start!”
Sect Master Zhuo Canglang appeared with a serious expression, without too much nonsense, and entered the topic.
“Elder Uncle Zhang, sacrificed!”
His voice was heavy, without too much nonsense, and landed in the hearts of the crowd setting off monstrous waves.
The scene was in an uproar, and the sound of cold breaths being sucked in rose and fell.
Wang Xiu’s pupils also shrunk slightly.
The Elder Uncle Zhang in Zhuo Canglang’s mouth, he also recognized, it was precisely one of the Three Holy Ancestors of Qing in the Sacred Realm – Zhang Yunting!
That was an old man with a violent temper but was very protective of his shortcomings.
He was very good to Wang Xiu.
It made a deep impression on him.
Back then, when Wang Xiu was in Blackwater City, killing countless demonic cultivators, a demonic lord appeared and wanted to suppress him, but it was Zhang Yunting and Ji Yan who appeared together and expelled it with a heavy blow.
Unexpectedly, when he heard the news of him again, it was actually the news of his death!
This is too sudden, not only Wang Xiu is hard to accept, many of the senior management present are the same.
The fall of a Sainthood stage powerhouse was definitely a calamity for the Three Pristine Immortal Sect.
“What exactly happened?” Wang Xiu asked out loud.
Zhuo Canglang sighed and recounted the original story.
Ever since a year ago, the saints returned, repelled the demon race, and replenished a seal.
All the great immortal sects sent out their manpower at the same time and stationed them outside of Ying Devil Island, rotating them on a regular basis.
If there was any movement, the Great Immortal Sects would be informed immediately.
Originally, it had been peaceful and uneventful.
Until ten days ago.
When it was Zhang Yunting’s turn to station eight saints, along with dozens of out-of-body stage powerhouses, he suddenly discovered something strange.
The seal had broken once again.
That re-patched seal was not as strong as the original one.
The Immortal Alliance had previously guessed that the seal would last for three to five years at most, and if it was shorter, it might just be a year or so.
But now it seemed that they had still overestimated!
However, the fact that the seal had broken was not the most terrifying thing, because all the cultivators in the Southern State had long been prepared for the war to begin.
The problem was that even though the seal had broken, not a single demonic race had broken the seal from the rift.
This was bizarre!
“Not only did no Demon Race vanish, Eldest Uncle Tai also discovered that someone had unknowingly patched the seal gap for us from the inside!” Zhuo Canglang’s voice was heavy, but what he said startled everyone.
Internal?
What was inside Ying Devil Island? It’s a group of demons!
“Why are they doing this?” Ji Yan frowned and asked the question in everyone’s mind.
This was too bizarre, the Devils had patched up the seal for them, it was clear that they were secretly hiding something, there must be a big move behind the scenes that they didn’t want them to know about!
“To do this kind of thing, it’s never a day’s work, could it be that in the past, those powerhouses responsible for guarding the garrison never found a single sign?” Wang Xiu spoke out, feeling strange and out of character.
“The Demon Race had an unknown strongman strike and covered up all the traces!” Zhuo Canglang explained, originally, Zhang Yunting and the others also had a hard time discovering it, having been sitting in the town for several months, never noticing that something was amiss, until that day, when there was suddenly a devilish aura overflowing from the seal, only then did they notice the abnormality.
Wang Xiu was silent, his brows tightly locked, the demon race definitely has a big action, obviously can break the seal and come out, but chose to continue to hibernate, and even disguised as unable to break the seal.
It was clearly like they were dragging their feet, waiting for a bigger layout to form.
Ten days ago, this was a special point in time, something had definitely happened within Ying Devil Island, causing the means left behind by the original demonic powerhouses to go awry, a trace of demonic qi overflowed and was captured by Zhang Yunting and the others.
“Eldest Uncle Tai’s style is steady, not someone who acts rashly! After noticing the abnormality, he then tried to send the message back at the first opportunity, but it was already too late ……”
Zhuo Canglang lamented, a Demon Emperor appeared in Ying Demon Island, comparable to a human Earth Immortal, blocking the void and preventing them from leaving, and the news was only half sent back before he was suppressed and killed.
The saint fell and the soul lamp shattered.
The great Immortal Sects reacted at the first opportunity, and some Earth Immortal Ancestors traveled, checking out the situation.
However, it was already too late, and there was nothing left but the remnants of demonic Qi.
The atmosphere in the great hall became oppressive.
This sudden bad news made everyone’s mood heavy.
It had to be said that this was an extremely significant blow.
Although the saint had fallen, it had sounded an alarm for all the races, the Demon Race definitely had a big move, otherwise they wouldn’t have been so perversely cautious.
The next counterattack will definitely be fierce.
It might be even tougher than that battle back then!
“It is imperative that we need to figure out as soon as possible, what exactly are they plotting?” Someone spoke out with a grave expression.
“Not only that!” Zhuo Canglang said, “There’s already a consensus within the Immortal Alliance, deciding to join forces and build a defense line 30,000 miles outside of Ying Demon Island in preparation for the great battle in the future!”
He stated the second focus of today’s meeting.
No one knew how long the Demon Race had been preparing and how many means they had, if they still responded to the war in haste like they did back then, the result would definitely be miserable.
So the Immortal Alliance decided to move the battle line forward.
In Yingmu Island outside 30,000 miles, will be used to defend against the devil’s border post all included, connected to a piece, the construction of an unprecedented magnificent city, called “Zhenmu”.
This is a big action, one hundred and eight cavernous heavenly blessed land join hands, each use their own means, will be this big city construction as solid as a golden soup.
Moreover, more than 80% of the top powerhouses and elite disciples were all mobilized there.
Because within Ying Devil Island, it had been determined that a Devil Emperor had survived to this day and had awakened from his slumber, without the top combatants to sit in the town, any more efforts would be futile.
The meeting dispersed.
All the chiefs and elders left in a hurry, looking grave.
The matter was big and urgent, and they needed to start preparing immediately.
Zhuo Canglang and Wang Xiu stayed alone.
“On the side of Zhen Demon City, the Saint Son doesn’t need to go there!” Zhuo Canglang looked at Wang Xiu and said this.
“Why?” Wang Xiu raised his eyebrows.
“The situation is unknown, the situation is also difficult to say, we now know very little about the bottom of the demon race, and even if it is not for this …… time, we do not even know that there is already a demon emperor powerhouse awakening within Ying Devil Island!” Zhuo Canglang sighed.
This was not singing the praises of the devil, but rather a rational analysis.
No one was more aware of the treacherous power of the Devil Race than the Three Clear Immortal Sect. This time they made a comeback, and it was hard to say whether the Human Race would be able to stop them!
The Three Clear Immortal Sect had managed to come out of the calamity with great difficulty, and now had a revitalized momentum, and with a Saint Son like Wang Xiu, there was great potential, so they shouldn’t take any chances.
Zhuo Canglang is the Sect Leader.
He needed to leave a spark for the Three Qing.
Wang Xiu understood what he meant, but didn’t agree, “I have to go!”
Zhuo Canglang said, “You’re still young, and although you’re talented enough, it’s hard for you to play any role in a battlefield like that with your realm today!”
Indeed, a battlefield of that level was too terrifying.
Once a battle erupted, any more outstanding Heaven’s Pride children would be meaningless, and damned if any of them could escape!
Wang Xiu’s strength was very strong, at the YuanYing realm, he could wrestle and kill out-of-body powers.
But at that time, it was common for saints to fall, and Earth Immortals would also have to shed blood!
What with the YuanYing and Out of Body realm cultivators, they were even more destined to die or be injured!
In Zhuo Canglang’s opinion, there was absolutely no point in taking the risk.
“Senior, you never understood me well enough!” Wang Xiu shook his head, his eyes full of determination, and suddenly closed his eyes and concentrated, a pure consciousness didn’t enter Zhuo Canglang’s brow.
Zhuo Canglang frowned, feeling, suddenly his complexion changed greatly, his eyes filled with shock, seeing an incomparably grandiose picture.
It was a majestic giant city standing proudly in the chaotic void, as if it was beyond the Laws and would never be destroyed.
The haze of light was vast and divine rainbows were everywhere, as if it was an immortal divine city!
Zhuo Canglang was greatly shocked, although it was only an image, it gave him a feeling that he was incomparably small.
“What is that?”
“Ancient Holy City! In the ancient times, a divine supine master who entered the Dao by manipulation spent endless years and gathered the greatness of the Immortal God to cast the Holy City! It can be indestructible for ten thousand robberies, and the rules will not be stained …… “Wang Xiu slowly introduced, and just now showed Zhuo Canglang, not only the images, but also the drawings.
This is one of the most famous puppets in the [Great Zhou Heavenly Divine Laying Down Scripture].
That’s right, that holy city, it was a gigantic puppet!
“Such an existence is by no means a thing of this realm’s heaven and earth, where did you get it from?” Zhuo Canglang was shocked beyond words.
“The Sacred Realm – in the Taixu Ancient Road! Disciple unintentionally obtained that senior’s inheritance!” Wang Xiu’s face was unchanged, he didn’t feel guilty at all for saying such words, and he wouldn’t be dismantled anyway.
As expected, after hearing about the Sacred Realm, the shock in Zhuo Canglang’s eyes lessened a bit, and was replaced by a sudden realization.
The Sacred Realm had always been mysterious, there were rumors that it was a fragment of the Immortal Realm, and anything magical had appeared throughout the ages.
However, those who could truly obtain this supreme opportunity from it were few and far between.
“No wonder your puppetry is so brilliant!” Zhuo Canglang seemed to have found the answer and looked at Wang Xiu with a few moments of envy in his eyes.
Not only was this son’s talent strong and rare throughout the ages, even his fortune was this heaven-defying.
Could it be that the saying of the son of fortune is true?
“But, that kind of Holy City, even if you have the drawings, I’m afraid it would be very difficult for us to build it!” After sobering up, Zhuo Canglang once again murmured.
“Not bad, but even if we could only build a rudimentary version, it would certainly be better than the one you built in haste!” Wang Xiu admitted frankly.
The Ancient Sacred City was too far away, and even if Wang Xiu possessed the Perfection Grade Great Perpetual Divine Laying Down Scripture, it would be useless.
The materials alone were hard to find, and this piece of heaven and earth was simply not of sufficient grade.
Moreover, Wang Xiu’s cultivation level was still almost interesting.
Back then, that Divine Crescendo Master had refined an entire star river into the Holy City, supplemented by the heaven and earth qi veins, the circumference of the heaven and the mystery of the sky, and possessed unimaginable greatness.
But it doesn’t matter!
Wang Xiu mastered the core of this inheritance, understood the principles, and could adapt.
Ultimately, it was about borrowing the power of heaven and earth.
The original version can’t get it out, make a beggar among beggars version, gather the power of 108 Immortal Sect, it should still be no problem!
“Elder, don’t worry, I’m the one who is most from the heart! If it is really not possible, I will definitely be the first one to leave, never take risks!” Seeing that Zhuo Canglang still had a few moments of hesitation, Wang Xiu half-truthfully joked.
He must be on the front line.
Worrying about the situation on the front battlefield is one point, and secondly …… there are many strong people there!
Even if it is not in the true sense of the word – saints are worse than dogs, and great powers are all over the place, it is not even close!
Blowing a bull is worth a few hundred unusual cultivators!
Not only does the human race have strong people, the demon race also has them!
Isn’t it normal for two armies to talk trash to each other?
These Wang Xiu could not be missed in any way!
“Alright!” After thinking for a long time, Zhuo Canglang finally chose to compromise, but still wanted Wang Xiu’s assurance that he would never act rashly!
“Don’t worry, Senior! Don’t you know me? The most honest ……,” Wang Xiu said with a serious face.
The corners of Zhuo Canglang’s mouth twitched slightly as he blackened his face and didn’t say anything.
You honest?
I don’t know who it was that dared to barge into the Devil Sect’s lair at the JieDan stage!
However, Zhuo Canglang didn’t say anything because the Taikoo Sacred City that Wang Xiu had let him see was just too magnificent, making it hard for his shock to subside.
If he could really build the [Devil Suppressing City] like that, even if it only had one ten-thousandth of the Divine Energy at its peak, his certainty of fighting against the Devil Clan would be more than thirty percent greater!
He couldn’t refuse!
……
After the matter was settled, the next step was to organize it in a tight manner.
The next few days.
The powerhouses in the Three Clear Immortal Sect continuously began to shift.
The light from the teleportation array didn’t stop.
All sorts of magic treasures, spirit stones, puppets …… everything that could be used on the battlefield were constantly being transported.
The disciples within the Immortal Sect were getting fewer and fewer.
In addition to the low strength of the Qi Refining Stage disciples, they were unable to go to the battlefield and could only do logistics.
The rest of the disciples, they all began to move towards the East Sea, forming a military system and entering into intense training.
The content of the training was – Soul Fighting Machine – Endless Mode!
However, Spirit Turtle Peak became lively.
Outside Wang Xiu’s small courtyard.
A large number of Qi Refining Stage disciples waited with respectful expressions, and their gazes towards the small courtyard were filled with reverence and fervor.
Swish!
A jade talisman flew out.
A disciple hurriedly stepped forward to catch it, and then sent it non-stop in the direction of Dragon Head Peak.
What was recorded in that jade talisman was the special building materials that [Devil Suppressing City] needed to use, such as Tianshan Jade Stone, Deep Sea Blue Gold ……
Wang Xiu pondered for a long time, picking out some substitutes that could be used from the existing conditions to ensure that the basic effects were not wrong, that complete runes could be engraved, that they could withstand the might of heaven and earth, and that they did not clash with other materials.
In addition to this, there is also the smelting and processing method of these materials, what kind of divine fire should be used to hammer, whether it belongs to yin or yang …… How to solve the unexpected situation encountered during the process.
Everything is detailed!
All have to explain clearly.
Because those things were too complicated and involved many different aspects of knowledge, even a senior forger would find it difficult to cope with them.
How huge was a divine city?
There were still too many things that needed to be done!
Similar jade talismans, Wang Xiu had already sent out more than a thousand of them in these days, and still had no intention of stopping.
After each piece of jade talisman was sent out, a large number of people would be active.
Unimaginable amounts of spirit stones were burned, and unimaginable amounts of manpower were mobilized.
The moment Wang Xiu’s drawing of the [Taikoo Sacred City] was displayed in the eyes of the top echelons of the great immortal sects.
The manpower and material resources of the entire 108 Immortal Sects were all decided by Wang Xiu with a single thought.
