Chapter 236: The Heroes Fight the Old Demon
Chapter 236: The Heroes Fight the Old Demon (Part 1)
The grassland army broke through the Liaoxi pass and marched straight into Liaodong, causing shock throughout Liaodong. Many people, officials and merchants were terrified and fled.
But the shock in Liaodong soon subsided.
At that time.
Xu Liushou entered the camp of the grassland martial saint, the Wolf King, alone. He was surrounded by a hundred thousand soldiers, but Xu Liushou was calm and composed and persuaded the Wolf King to retreat to the outside of the Great Wall.
This news caused an uproar throughout Liaodong.
Of course, there are also honest people who say that the grassland tribes only had tens of thousands of troops at that time.
But someone soon objected, how could the Martial Saint be defeated by an army of 100,000?
The Martial Saint who has been famous in the grassland for a hundred years doesn’t have this much deterrent power?
No matter what, Xu Liushu once fought against an army of 100,000.
As for what Xu Liushou and the grassland martial saint Fu Xuan communicated that night, no one knew.
...
...
The Dayu army recaptured Jinguan Fort and Dasheng Fort.
At this moment, Xiong Chan was staring at Fu Xuan beside Xu Qing in amazement.
He never expected that Xu Qingzhen would bring Fu Xuan here.
Xiong Chan was astonished. Could it be that Brother Gongming was not the God of Literature who had descended to earth, but a demon from outer space, who was alluring and invincible?
In any case, it is a great thing that Fu Xuan joins the righteous camp to fight against the Black Mountain Demon.
Fu Xuan: "I promised Xu Gongming to help you, but I will only do it once."
After he said this, Xiong Chan was not disappointed, but believed Fu Xuan even more.
If Fu Xuan helped them unreservedly, people would doubt whether he had ulterior motives.
Xu Qing nodded slightly: "Mr. Fu can leave at any time, even if he doesn't take action."
Fu Xuan had his own pride and said, "Since I'm here, there's no reason for me to run away when I see the Black Mountain Old Demon."
To be honest, the Black Mountain Demon is also a thorn in the side of their generation.
They had all cultivated to the level of Martial Saint and thought they were the best, but they didn't expect that there was a Lingxiao Palace in the sky, which severely suppressed those who were almost gods in the human world.
Unfortunately, Fu Xuan knew very well that he didn't have much time left.
But it's also a good thing.
Otherwise, he will be suppressed by his junior Xu Gongming in the future.
Xu Qing's offer impressed him, and Fu Xuan couldn't refuse.
Because Xu Qing promised to find the reincarnation of Grand Master Murong for him.
This has also been Fu Xuan's biggest concern in the past hundred years.
He did not doubt Xu Qing's integrity, because Fu Xuan knew Xu Qing, the leader of the younger generation in Middle-earth, very well.
Since this person debuted, he has always fulfilled his promises, even to his enemies.
What convinced Fu Xuan even more was that Xu Qing could write articles that were sage-like and could move the star Wenqu.
This is a living saint.
Even though Fu Xuan was a barbarian, he knew very well that the saints and wise men in the Middle-earth would never be evil villains.
It can be said that Xu Qing's identity is glorious even in the eyes of the enemy.
This is also the result of the civilization of Middle-earth penetrating into the hearts of the people around it.
It can be said that with the Thirteen Provinces of Han in the Dayu Dynasty as the center, the surrounding borders and various small countries were deeply influenced by the Middle-earth civilization.
China has great etiquette, so it is called Xia; it has beautiful clothing, so it is called Hua.
Even the Khan of the Golden Horde on the grassland deeply missed the days of the previous dynasty when the people of the grassland enjoyed the fruits of Han civilization in Middle-earth.
...
...
Early July.
At the foot of Changbai Mountain, masters from all walks of life gathered to form the Righteous Alliance.
This is the most grand gathering of the world's cultivation community in the past hundred years.
"The number one scholar."
When the masters from all sides saw Xu Qing, they all took the initiative to greet him.
Because Xu Qing not only has a great reputation in the world, but also takes the initiative to talk about his own experience in cultivation in the alliance without keeping anything to himself.
This is also a true display of one's abilities.
No one disagreed.
And everyone knows that with Xu Liushou's age and prestige, he doesn't need to take any risks. But for the sake of justice in the world, he still has to take the initiative to eliminate the cancer of the Black Mountain Old Demon.
How could this move not move all the great masters?
Most of the participants in this demon-slaying conference have grudges against the Black Mountain Demon.
After all, a hundred years ago, the old monster was rampant in the world and dominated the world. I don’t know how many Taoist sects in Middle-earth were bullied by the old monster.
In Xu Qing's opinion, the old demon's methods were too overbearing and crude.
He had a vague feeling that the old demon's oppression of the major sects was purely for the purpose of collecting the essence of cultivation from practitioners all over the world and trying to find a path to the great way.
It’s just that the Black Mountain Demon is too straightforward.
But the great way is always to take the direct path.
The Black Mountain Demon can subdue the world with his intimidation, so naturally there is no need for him to reason with people, as that would be too inefficient.
Before we knew it, it was July 6th, and after midnight, it was July 7th.
Thunderclouds gathered in the sky.
The Black Mountain Old Demon wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of the Heavenly Demon to fight against the Seven Evils in order to survive the thunder tribulation again and return to the realm of the Creator.
All the evil spirits in Changbai Mountain gathered at the Seven Killing Demon Palace.
It can be said that this thunder did not occur by chance, but was caused by the aura of the Black Mountain Old Demon.
He wanted to survive the thunder tribulation on this day, and then the thunder tribulation came.
By this day, all the defenses of the Seven Killing Demon Palace in Changbai Mountain were like tofu dregs and had no ability to resist against the army of the Righteous Alliance.
Xu Qing and others did not take any action.
They killed their way all the way into the depths of the Seven Killing Demon Palace.
For many years, the masters of Middle-earth have never gone so deep into the Demon Palace.
In the main hall of the Demon Palace.
The Black Mountain Old Demon sat high on the throne, with black, white and red auspicious clouds above his head, which were the manifestation of his three spirits.
A ball of clear light came to the main hall and revealed the figure of an experienced Taoist priest, who was none other than the old Heavenly Master.
"Zhang Daowei, you are so old, do you still want to come and die in front of me?" Facing an old friend whom he had known for a hundred years, the Black Mountain Old Demon stretched out his sharp nails that looked like white bones and pointed at the old Taoist priest.
Zhang Tianshi: "Old monster, you practice the Taiqing Heavenly Book and regard yourself as the way of heaven, but have you forgotten that you were also a human being?" "Humans are also the way of heaven." The Black Mountain Old Monster said in a light tone.
As soon as he finished speaking, a long, sharp whistle emanated from his mouth, as if a heavenly sword had fallen into the hall. The black clouds in the auspicious clouds above his head surged and rushed towards the old Taoist priest.
The old Taoist priest waved his sleeves and five lightning bolts flew out and exploded out of thin air. Lightning pythons as thick as buckets tumbled in the air and strangled the black cloud.
Xu Qing was greatly impressed by the fact that the old Taoist priest had cultivated the Five Thunders Method to such an extent.
He thought that his attainments in thunder magic were far from as proficient as the old Taoist priest's.
At this moment, Xu Qing appeared with his sword drawn, and the Wuji Sword, dragging the long blade of the Sanyin Demon-Slaying Sword, slashed towards the old demon's face.
The Black Mountain Old Demon was invincible. The white clouds above his head flew out and mixed with Xu Qing's Three Yin Demon-Slaying Sword.
In the end, he did not use his trump card. This Three Corpses' Spirit was completely the magical power of the previous generation of the Black Mountain Old Demon. When it met the Three Yin Demon-Slaying Swords activated by the Wuji Sword, it was in a state of melting in a short time.
The Black Mountain Demon was not in a hurry and looked up at the sky.
The roof of the main hall broke open in an instant, revealing a cloud of thunder and lightning, like a deep abyss, hanging the sky upside down.
At this moment, an extremely grand Zen sound rang out.
Xiong Chan appears.
The Black Mountain Demon pointed again, and the red cloud above his head turned into a galaxy, wrapping up Xiong Chan.
Upon seeing this, the others quickly formed the Arhat Demon Subduing Formation and surrounded the Black Mountain Old Demon's body.
They knew that as long as they consumed the old monster's energy at this time, when the thunder tribulation came, the old monster would surely not be spared.
This Arhat Subduing Demon Formation was formed by 108 masters of the time. It was so powerful that even the Martial Saint could not break it.
The Black Mountain Demon entered and was immediately imprisoned.
The Arhat Subduing Demon Formation began to operate, and immediately the figures of the Arhats from all over the heavens appeared, surrounding the old demon.
The Black Mountain Demon laughed loudly: "Even if all the gods and Buddhas come to kill me, what do I have to fear?"
As he laughed loudly, something like magma suddenly flowed out of his body, sucking the Arhat Demon Subduing Formation into the sea of fire.
The qi of both sides is intertwined.
The Arhat Subduing Demon Formation suddenly became shaky.
The world's number one expert is indeed worthy of his reputation.
These masters formed a large formation, and even though the three corpses of the Black Mountain Old Demon's soul were entangled by Xu Qing and the other two, they were unable to do anything to the Black Mountain Old Demon's real body. They all looked horrified.
"I don't want to play with you anymore." The magma surrounding the Black Mountain Old Demon formed a streak, which actually broke through the Arhat Demon Subduing Formation and went towards the sky.
"Don't leave."
Xu Qing broke free from the Three Corpses of the Black Mountain Old Demon, and his body transformed into seven forms, just like the Big Dipper, transforming into a long spoon to block the Black Mountain Old Demon's way.
"Tian Gang Bei Dou!"
The Black Mountain Old Demon looked slightly surprised, then waved his hand and shot out a flame, like a fire dragon, which pounced on Xu Qing's face.
Xu Qing's Tiangang Beidou method immediately put out the fire dragon.
But despite this momentary obstruction, the old demon's figure continued to rise.
Upon seeing this, Xu Qing's spirit left his body and transformed into a small purple and yellow dragon, catching up with the old demon.
"The Great Canglong Method?" The Black Mountain Old Demon sneered, then opened his mouth, which turned into a terrifying air hole, and actually tried to suck Xu Qing's soul in.
Xu Qing was immediately shocked.
His mind moved, and his spirit and soul suddenly returned to its place.
When the body and soul were connected, even if the Black Mountain Old Demon had the power to swallow the sky, he could not absorb Xu Qing's soul.
This is the power of Zifu Yuanzong.
Upon seeing this, the Black Mountain Demon reached out and grabbed him.
The eerie white bone claws grabbed at Xu Qing's crown.
Xu Qing immediately turned into a ball of white light, and seven stars scattered.
"A mere trifle!" The Black Mountain Old Demon flicked his bone claws, and five bone blade lights popped out immediately. Xu Qing's incarnation of the Big Dipper annihilated the five of them instantly.
"He is indeed the best master in the world." Xu Qing now feels deeply powerless.
No matter how hard he tried, it seemed easy for the other party to break his magical powers.
Xiong Chan and the old Taoist priest also got rid of the entanglement of the three spirits of the Black Mountain Old Demon and each committed suicide towards the Black Mountain Old Demon's real body.
The old demon fought against three people alone and was not at a disadvantage at all.
Moreover, he took a defensive stance against the Old Heavenly Master and Xiong Chan, and the three corpses' spirits condensed again to deal with the many masters who formed the Arhat formation.
As the black robe fluttered, it suddenly turned into waves, sweeping over and killing Xu Qing.
As Xu Qing fought on, he found that no matter what magical power he had, it was not as effective as the Three Yin Demon-Slaying Sword combined with the Sky-Buying Hand.
He simply put aside all distractions and focused on using the Three Yin Demon-Slaying Sword.
Fortunately, it is the hand that can repair the sky and see through the energy of the world.
Even if the Black Mountain Old Demon's Qi was running perfectly, Xu Qing could still find a fleeting gap. He fought almost desperately, betting that the Black Mountain Old Demon would not dare to consume a lot of vitality before surviving the thunder tribulation.
This was also the plan agreed upon by Xu Qing and Xiong Chan.
Before the arrival of midnight, try your best to consume the Black Mountain Old Demon. When the thunder tribulation begins, the greater the consumption of the Black Mountain Old Demon, the lower the possibility of surviving the thunder tribulation. Even if it survives, the weak period will be very severe.
This move is more risky and radical than originally planned.
But with Fu Xuan by my side, it's worth a try.
After all, the Black Mountain Old Demon is the best master in the world with unparalleled spiritual perception, so he naturally knew that Fu Xuan was nearby.
This is also the reason why it always has spare power.
However, Xu Qing's Heaven-Repairing Hand combined with the Three Yin Demon-Slaying Sword were increasingly reminiscent of the previous generation of the Xuantian Shenglong Taoist master, and the Black Mountain Old Demon couldn't help feeling a little irritated.
In Xu Qing's bronze mirror, the little dragon of luck was almost completely occupied by black air, and its original appearance could not be seen, which indicated that he was getting closer and closer to death.
However, he used the Three Yin Demon-Slaying Sword with his whole heart and soul, putting aside life and death, and not caring about the matter at all.
Xu Qing’s sword went straight to the Black Mountain Old Demon’s vital points.
Moreover, the horror of the Heaven-Repairing Hand is constantly being manifested.
The Black Mountain Demon tried to capture Xu Qing's vital points several times, but was forced back by Xu Qing's strategy of dying together.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang as the sky collapsed and the earth cracked.
It’s midnight!
Then, a powerful and almost boundless aura of ferocity emanated from deep underground in Changbai Mountain.
The demon attacks Qisha!
The Black Mountain Old Demon shouted, "Wait until I have passed the thunder tribulation, then I will kill you all!"
As soon as the deep and sea-like demonic energy appeared, it gathered towards the Black Mountain Old Demon's body, like countless giant pythons entwined into a huge demon cocoon, and then wrapped up the old demon's body, slowly and steadily rising into the cloud of thunder and lightning.
