Chapter 183: Wang Tian, a fraudster and a charlatan.
Chapter 183: Wang Tian, a fraudster and a charlatan.
Lanjiang Prefecture, in the southern part of the Great Wei Dynasty.
"kill!"
"Kill them!"
Countless figures surged forward like ants, wielding long knives, sharp swords, or spears that moved like dragons!
As they fought their way forward, the dark red blood, like the dyed Yangtze River, soaked everyone's clothes like a tidal wave.
Mo Tianhe's eyes were bloodshot, and he was panting heavily. The precious sword in his hand, forged from millennia-old cold iron, had several nicks in it. Blood flowed from the base of his thumb, a wound caused by gripping the sword tightly for a long time during the fight.
"Huff, huff," he said, straining his eyes to look around. Everywhere he looked, there were severed limbs and broken bodies.
The battlefield was vast, with a gigantic demon over a hundred meters tall looming at intervals. Human warriors and powerful members of the arriving alien beast race joined forces to attack the demon.
He glanced at it briefly, then immediately turned to look at a spot in the sky, where the high-level battlefield was located.
Suddenly, a gust of wind came from the right, and Mo Tianhe's expression changed. He instantly disappeared from the spot.
The moment he disappeared, a large hammer slammed down on the ground with a loud thud!
"Human brat, prepare to die!"
A giant blue-faced tortoise, wielding a warhammer, with a bulky and enormous body! Hanging from its belly shell is a small pink tortoise.
The power of the two turtles merged together, unleashing a power at the Marrow Marrow Realm level!
"Prime Minister Turtle?" Mo Tianhe's face darkened.
This recently emerged demon at the Marrow Transformation Realm has already been registered in the Demon Extermination Bureau's register.
......
The battles in the sky and on the ground are completely different scenes.
The deafening roar of violent energy explosions echoed continuously, and figures flew back and forth like streaks of light, accompanied by several sharp shouts and flashes of swords!
"Demon Lord, the Way of Heaven is all-encompassing. You dare to defy Heaven, and you will surely be suppressed!" Dao Yuanzi's body was filled with powerful blood and qi, and although he looked old, he was at his peak at this moment!
On the other two sides, Chu Hanwei held the Frost Sword, while Xu Rulin, revealing his true form, had tentacles occupying a portion of the sky.
The three formed a triangular encirclement, surrounding the Demon Lord in the middle.
Below, dark clouds gathered, and martial artists at the Marrow Transformation Realm and demons fought and traversed the clouds.
The four stood high above the clouds, bathed in the bright sunlight, the faint traces of blood reflecting the glow of the sunset. A scene both beautiful and poignant.
The Demon Lord glanced at the three, his eyes remaining indifferent.
He then recited: "Throughout history, many heroes have strove bravely; three ants in a swarm observe a colossal elephant!"
"A divine sword, an old man, and a stupid pig being used."
A slight smile played on his lips. "Very well, the time is almost right. Today I will show you my true power!"
Before he could finish speaking, countless black tentacles burst forth from all directions!
A forbidden phantom pounces!
"Why listen to his nonsense! Kill him!"
It was Xu Rulin who made his move while the Demon Lord was speaking!
Chu Hanwei followed closely behind, his long rainbow pendant piercing the sun!
Dao Yuanzi formed a hand seal, and his power increased once again!
The three of them went all out!
Available in the next moment!
A black hole suddenly appeared behind the Demon Lord, absorbing the attacks of the three.
Immediately, a continuous stream of power poured into his body from the black hole, and his original middle-aged form rapidly changed, transforming him into a ten-meter-tall giant in the blink of an eye!
"Hehe, let's begin!"
The black, bloody wind violently surged, sending Chu Hanwei and the other two hundreds of meters away!
As the stench subsided, the Demon Lord grinned maliciously and raised his giant axe...
......
"That remnant soul attempted to break through the seal of heaven and earth and seize the body of the ancient demon. But things are never that easy."
The lush, gnarled branches of the ghost tree rustled softly.
"The body of an ancient demon has been coveted by countless people throughout history, including many who specifically smuggled themselves over from the Great Domain of Myriad Spirits. Yet, in the end, no one has been able to seize it."
Zhang Ping stood calmly not far from the ghost tree, arms crossed. "So, Wang Tian is one of them too?"
"Heh, of course. Do you really believe the rumors circulating outside are true?"
Wen Gaoyang's face was cold. "The so-called destruction of the world by the mountain and marshland was nothing more than a scheme orchestrated by Wang Tian himself. If it weren't for outside interference, how could such an extraordinary entity as the mountain and marshland have been born in the sealed land?"
"Shanze was brought here by that hypocrite. As for his injuries, they were nothing more than the backlash he suffered from trying to seize the body of the ancient demon."
Hearing these secret tales, Zhang Ping didn't know if they were true or false, but some of the plausible parts stirred up a storm in his heart!
If what Wen Gaoyang said is true, then the founder of the Dao, who has been revered by millions of people since the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty, will be reduced to a conspirator despised by countless people!
However, he immediately shook his head: "What you said may not be true, and even if it is true, it has nothing to do with me."
"However, the people of the old Wei and Zhao regions are grateful for the many cultivation methods that Wang Tian passed down."
Upon hearing this, Wen Gaoyang sneered: "That was just him raising Gu for his own scheme. Now that the Gu has gotten out of control, he has no choice but to gamble everything."
"Enough, there's no point in saying more. From now on, let's break the seal on the ancient demon's head together. I'll retrieve my things, and you can take the Holy Sword; I agree to that."
The two met here, within Wen Gaoyang's scheme. Their aim was to break the altar's seal and reclaim some of their belongings.
Zhang Ping did not refute this; his goal was also to break the seal.
However, besides obtaining the Holy Sword, there is another important matter: to come into contact with the head of the Ancient Demon and see if the power of the Ancient Demon can be imprinted through the head!
This is the main reason why he risked coming to Zhantai Mountain.
After agreeing on the terms, the two split into left and right sides.
Begin breaking the seal.
Breaking the seal isn't difficult. However, it requires some special methods and the power of reaching the critical point of the Divine Realm.
By passing the years in this way, the seal can be broken through the skill of water milling.
However, Zhang Ping's power comes from the beast patterns and is not restricted by the seal of heaven and earth. Apart from lacking divine consciousness, his pure power level has already reached the Divine Power Realm.
This will save a lot of time! And the success rate of cracking will increase significantly!
This was also the reason why Wen Gaoyang was so agitated earlier.
Zhang Ping sat down on the west side, not referring to the solution given by Wen Gaoyang. Instead, he took out the animal skin scroll and matched the clues on it with the solution one by one.
We will be wary of anything that seems unreasonable.
Fireflies flickered in the space.
A wind, blowing from who-knows-where, urged the glow-in-the-ground plants to dance a joyful dance.
The branches sway, their colors vibrant.
The rustling sound evokes thoughts and longing.
.....
One month later,
Blood River Battlefield.
A simple city rose from the ground.
Chu Hanwei stood on the city wall, gazing at the bloody landscape several miles away, a mass of severed limbs and broken bodies.
The reluctance in my heart had long since gone numb.
After a month of arduous fighting, they finally managed to stop the demons, but the Demon Lord's strength exceeded their expectations.
All the prepared measures proved ineffective, leaving the situation in a stalemate once again.
A breeze blew in, a bit cool, with a fishy smell.
Chu Hanwei snapped out of her daze and felt a slight discomfort on her left cheek.
I subconsciously raised my hand to touch it and felt a rough scar.
The scars, running from left to right, cover the left side of the face, with a strange force hindering the body's repair.
