Chapter 124: Demon Leaving The Mountain
“If he’s truly possessed by the devil, then this world will be in ruins. I wonder if Senior can defeat him?” Xu Xiao thought to himself as he flew to the attic.
When he arrived, he realized that that Li Mu had left long ago.
He sighed and left as well.
He knew that if his senior were still there, together with the techniques of the Xu Family, they could definitely defeat that old demon.
“How did he get possessed by the devil?”
“He’s been playing with the devil for too long.”
…
In the North Continent, inside the Temple of War…
A group of people had solemn expressions on their faces.
“The world is going to be in chaos.”
“That old b.a.s.t.a.r.d stirred up trouble in all three continents. Why didn’t we just kill him in the first place?”
“Can anyone even kill him?”
“Then what should we do now?”
“If we couldn’t kill it back then, do you think we’ll be able to now?”
A sense of powerlessness filled the hall.
Meanwhile, in the Xia family, Liu Yu, Xia s.h.i.+yin, and Mu Qingfeng were all sitting together.
The three of them had become the pillars of Xia Mu’s family.
The atmosphere in the hall was very solemn.
“Why did the ancestor of the Qianyuan Sacred Ground become a demon?”
They were confused and upset!
They already hated the Qianyuan Sacred Ground so much.
They didn’t think it would be possible to hate them even more.
Mu Qingfeng anxiously rubbed his hands on his face. “The world is chaotic enough as it is,” he said.
The South Continent had finally been peaceful after so many years. Just as it was about regain its prenatal qi, the ancestor of the Qianyuan Sacred Ground became possessed by the devil.
“Old Demon Han, how is the mole?”
“He said that he is fine for the time being. The ancestor has not lost his sanity yet, and the Qianyuan Sacred Ground is still managed by him. But he said that the ancestor is starting to feed on some Virtual Realm masters for nourishment.”
“In other words, the ancestor is dismissive of such a cultivation level?” Xia s.h.i.+yin asked.
“Yes!”
“Then the ancestor is likely to be dismissive of the South Continent too.”
“You are wrong! If the ancestor of the Qianyuan Sacred Ground has become possessed by the devil, what’s to say that others will not become possessed as well? In addition, after that ancestor became possessed by the devil, he will still be concerned about channeling the South Continent’s qi. I only hope that whoever that person is, he can stop him.”
“This old ancestor has legendary powers. Now that he is possessed by the devil, no one will be a match for him!”
“Everyone is going to die anyway! I, Liu Yu, am not afraid of them! I will kill him or die trying!” Liu Yu’s eyes flickered with anger.
“Liu Yu, calm down!”
“You calm down! I’m going to Muguang Mountain. I’ll hold him back as long as I can. Go arrange an escape route for the rest of our family.” Liu Yu took his sword and left.
“Wait for me! I’m coming too!” Old Mo Han ran after Liu Yu.
After this news broke out, Zhongzhou was in a mess.
Many people joined the Evil Gang in an attempt to protect themselves, but they later realized that it was difficult to survive in Evil Gang and began to flee for their lives.
They tried to escape to either the Xu Family in the East Continent, or the Temple of War in the North Continent.
Meanwhile, the Zhongzhou warriors and the Evil Gang focused their attacks on the weakest target, the South Continent.
Tens of millions of demons and Zhongzhou warriors headed toward Muguang Mountain.
Suddenly, things started to heat up.
Inside the Taiyue Sect of the South Continent…
On the martial arts field, thousands of disciples stared at the two siblings in front of them.
“When we were in trouble, the people of the South Continent took us in and treated us like your disciples. Now, the people of Zhongzhou have joined forces with demons to destroy us. Are we going to let them do so?”
“No!” The thousands of people standing below shouted in unison.
“Are you afraid of dying?”
“No!”
Inside the Xia State Palace, Liu An got on a unicorn and ran out from the gate of the Imperial Capital.
Behind him was a purple-robed eunuch and twenty thousand masters.
They were followed by many carriages.
Two hundred miles out of the city, they met up with the army.
In the middle of the army, there was a four-wheeled carriage made of iron and wooden barrels.
“Emperor!”
“Everyone, I do not wish to take you to Muguang Mountain to face the demons. This is not what the South Continent people wanted either. Perhaps many of you will not be able to return to your families. But their freedom is exactly what we are fighting for.”
“We will follow the Emperor!” Hundreds of thousands of armored warriors roared in unison.
The sound was deafening.
Countless families and forces in the South Continent formed an army and marched toward Muguang Mountain.
The first to reach Muguang Mountain were Old Demon Han and Liu Yu.
The two of them welded their swords behind Baima Barrier.
The valley in front of them soon filled with the heads of demons and Zhongzhou warriors.
They were men on a mission.
Only a Virtual Realm master could take down these two experienced half-step Virtual Realm masters.
There were many Virtual Realm masters in the Qianyuan Sacred Ground.
But no one dared to come forward.
Many years ago, a number of Virtual Realm masters, including advanced Virtual Realm masters, had fallen here. They weren’t sure if the person hiding in Muguang Mountain was still there.
Since no Virtual Realm master dared to come forward, the others stepped aside, afraid of being beheaded by Liu Yu and Old Demon Han.
Some of them waited for the master of Qianyuan Sacred Ground to arrive while others started to surround the mountain.
Two months later…
Thousands of miles away, a cloud of dust billowed.
Boom!
After a while, a loud noise came from the sky.
At the same time, the earth trembled.
Many people turned to look in the direction of the cloud.
“I’m going to take a look!” Liu Yu left Old Demon Han and flew closer.
At the same time, the Zhongzhou masters also flew in the direction of the cloud.
A hundred miles away from the cloud, Liu An looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction.
After years of fighting, he knew exactly where the enemy would attack.
He knew Muguang Mountain like the back of his hand.
After a.n.a.lyzing the area, Liu An brought the army here and relied on the ability of hundreds of Perfected Persons to dig little holes and stuff the gunpowder barrels into the mountain.
By the time the people of Zhongzhou entered the mountain, there were tens of thousands of barrels of gunpowder inside.
As soon as they had put everything into place, their enemy appeared.
After killing some of them, they quickly retreated, leading the enemy into the Mountain.
When there were enough enemies there, they ignited the gunpowder with fire.
The whole mountain turned into a cloud of dust.
There was a loud noise.
The Zhongzhou masters in the mountains instantly blew up.
The warriors in the surrounding area were also killed by the large pieces of rock thrown by the explosion.
Even the warriors within a ten-mile radius were killed by the huge shock wave.
The Zhongzhou warriors who were about thirty miles away were also injured.
But that was not all!
When the cloud of dust rose, countless rocks flew into the sky.
Then, they started raining down.
Within fifty miles, unlucky warriors who were hit by the rocks from the sky were smashed into pieces.
Frightened, the warriors of Zhongzhou and the Evil Gang retreated.
“Long live the Emperor!” sergeants from the State of Great Xia, who where a hundred miles away, cheered.
“We can handle these warriors.” Liu An stared at the thousands of masters behind him, with confidence on his face.
The Well of Prenatal had erupted many years ago. Relying on the techniques left by Eunuch Li, the Imperial Palace took in geniuses from the State of Great Xia and trained them into masters.
“Emperor, we still have so much kerosene left!”
“Yes! When we block the Zhongzhou masters later, the other sergeants can use kerosene and stones to attack!”
A few days later, there was a landslide and fires on the mountain.
After continuous attacks, the Evil Gang did not dare to cross the line.
In the Qianyuan Sacred Ground, the old man with long eyebrows absorbed the last of the Luojue Sacred Ground’s grand elder.
His body exuded a foul smell.
After absorbing some golden qi from the golden lotus, the old man with long eyebrows turned back into a human.
“It’s finally time to leave this d.a.m.n golden lotus. I’m finally going to get back my cultivation channels in the South Continent.’”
The old man with long eyebrows flew out from the underground palace and took in a deep breath.
“I haven’t been outside for so many years. Juniors, wait for me!”
