If I become a saint, a celestial official will summon me to raise horses.

Chapter 344 Darkness Descends! A Moment of Despair!
On a beach at the edge of the Taicang Continent, dozens of ragged people were walking towards the woods.

A young girl was supporting her elderly grandfather as she looked at the strange blood-red light in the sky, her eyes filled with fear.

"Grandpa, they let us come here, is there some kind of conspiracy behind it?"

The girl asked cautiously, her face covered in mud, but it couldn't hide her bright eyes.

Her grandfather walked forward unsteadily, saying weakly, "It will get better..."

Not only them, but others around them were also worried and expectant.

Looking out over the edge of the mainland, there are still many people like this rushing inland.

Those with higher cultivation levels disappeared quickly, while those with lower cultivation levels could only proceed on foot.

Gu An took in all of this. With his divine sense, he could tell that these people were all reincarnations of demons, and their souls shared the same cause and effect as You Yingying and Shen Xinzi.

These people all arrived via teleportation arrays, and as soon as they appeared, the teleportation arrays quickly disappeared.

Gu An investigated their cause and effect and learned some information.

Heavenly Prison!

These people came from the Heavenly Prison, and they did not know why they were driven there by the rulers of the Heavenly Prison.

Although the cause and effect and fortune of the Heavenly Prison were not connected with the Holy Court, Gu An knew without thinking that it was inseparable from the Great Underworld Saint King.

After all, he had very few enemies, and only the Great Underworld King could achieve such a feat.

Releasing so many reincarnated demons here is just to attract the Dark War Emperor, isn't it?

Gu An scoffed at such methods. This was fine too. If the Dark War Emperor could be lured here in advance, it would reduce casualties, and the Sword Venerable Fudao would have a legitimate reason to take action.

"Master, what exactly is in the heavens?"

Long Qing looked up, her little face full of fear.

Anyone who sees him would find it hard to associate him with the Great Emperor of the Realm of Annihilation.

Gu An patted his head and gently comforted him, "It's nothing, it might rain. Didn't you say you'd be a man after you turned five? Why are you crying?"

Upon hearing this, Long Qing quickly wiped away her tears, clenched her two small fists, and said, "I didn't cry! I just got sand in my eyes!"

He amused You Yingying, who was standing next to him, which eased the tense atmosphere.

Gu An put Long Qing down, then looked at You Yingying and asked with a smile, "You're not going to keep holding onto me, are you?"

Upon hearing this, You Yingying quickly released her hands, her face slightly flushed, and spat out, "Pah, who wants to grab you?"

"Really? Someone almost ripped my sleeve off just now."

"Hmph, it was an accident."

Just as the two were bickering, the protective formation of the Tai Xuan Sect was activated, and a magnificent light screen rose in the distance, with figures of cultivators flying over the Third Medicine Valley.

Tai Xuan Sect quickly entered a state of combat readiness!
Nine-Fingered Divine Lord stood up, looked into the distance, and said, "There's trouble again. It seems this game of chess can't be finished today."

The old cultivator sitting opposite him breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say something when the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord suddenly disappeared.

Shenxinzi, who was under a tree in the distance, also got up and disappeared from the spot.

……

Beneath rolling thunderclouds, the earth was engulfed in flames, resembling a living hell.

A figure strode forward through the sea of ​​fire. He wore tattered black armor, had curly black hair, and his hands and feet were festering and oozing blood. His back was slightly hunched, and beneath his disheveled black hair was a horrifying face.

His face was also festering, with only his eyes intact, his lips missing, and his mouth full of teeth exposed, a horrifying sight.

He is the Dark War Emperor!
He walked forward, exhaling stale air.

His gaze drifted into the distance, where he saw a white-robed man hovering in the sky, watching him.

He glanced at it only once before looking away.

He stopped and stood up straight, as if he were sniffing something.

Soon, he abruptly turned his head to look in one direction, and then vanished into thin air.

The next second, he appeared under the blue sky, with layers of clouds below. He swooped down, shattering the clouds for thousands of miles, and crashed into the earth with unstoppable force.

boom!
Terrifying flames illuminated the heavens and the earth, and a terrifying impact erupted from one point on the continent, sweeping in all directions. The green mountains and rivers were turned into charred black landscapes after being swept away.

Countless lives were wiped out in an instant.

"enough."

The white-robed man's voice rang out, his tone filled with oppressive force.

Immediately afterwards, the Dark War Emperor's evil laughter rang out, adding a touch of terror to this shattered world.

at the same time.

Inside the Third Medicine Valley.

Gu An felt a divine sense sweeping over him, far surpassing that of a Mystic Immortal, which must be the divine sense of the Dark War Emperor.

As expected, the Dark War Emperor was still drawn to the karmic consequences of the Heavenly Demons on this land.

Gu An walked towards the teleportation array platform.

"Where are you going?" Ji Xiaoyu's voice reached Gu An's ears. Gu An turned around and saw Ji Xiaoyu looking at him from afar.

He replied using telepathy, "Go check out Xuan Valley. There are plenty of people there, so I don't need to worry."

Ji Xiaoyu could only nod after hearing this, and then watched him leave. Gu An arrived at Xuan Valley through the teleportation array. Lu Jiujia gathered the disciples together, and they were all discussing the terrifying phenomenon that had suddenly appeared.

"Master is here!"

A disciple exclaimed in surprise, and everyone turned to look, their faces filled with joy. The Dark War Emperor's aura was terrifying, making the disciples worry about what would happen next. Seeing Gu An at this moment naturally put their minds at ease.

Gu An walked toward his disciples, and at the same time, he felt the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord's divine sense locking onto him.

It seems that the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord also suspects that he has a connection with the Sword Venerable Fudao.

interesting!
At that moment, all living beings on the Taicang Continent suddenly felt a sense of suffocation, regardless of their cultivation level.

But this feeling is only fleeting, gone in an instant!
"what happened?"

Zuo Yijian stood beside the Sky-Breaking Axe, gazing at the sky with a furrowed brow.

Not only him, but everyone on the Heaven-Mending Platform was terrified, not knowing what had happened, but the feeling they had just experienced was definitely real.

The entire continent of Taicang was shrouded in an atmosphere of panic!
Beneath the vast sky, the Dark War Emperor appeared in the air, with a magnificent ocean below. He looked at the distant continent, his brows furrowed.

The continent ahead is none other than the Taicang Continent!
As he charged toward the Taicang Continent, he felt a powerful force blocking his momentum, which forced him to stop.

That continent harbors a powerful figure!

The abundance of demonic energy in this place suggests that the entities within the continent are likely unrelated to the Holy Court.

The Dark War Emperor's eyes flickered. He raised his right hand, and billowing black energy surged from his palm, rapidly covering the sky and churning towards the Tai Cang Continent.

The people of the mainland saw dark clouds rolling in from the horizon. Before they could think much about it, the world suddenly darkened, and day turned into night.

"What happened? Why did it suddenly get dark?"

Did you experience a sudden cardiac arrest just now?

"What exactly is going on? Is the Great Cold Demon Sect coming again?"

"Could it be that a terrifying demon has appeared?"

The disciples of Xuan Valley were discussing among themselves. Gu An's expression was solemn. He could not explain the reason to the disciples and could only ask them to believe in the Tai Xuan Sect.

As the entire continent was shrouded in dark clouds, the Dark War Emperor's oppressive aura intensified, causing widespread fear and unease among all living beings.

Standing in front of the wooden railing, Ji Xiaoyu was somewhat dazed. She seemed to see a dark figure walking towards her, each step filled with a sense of oppression, stepping on her heart.

Not only her, but all living beings on the mainland are trapped in this strange state.

Inside the palace.

Li Xuandao sat on the dragon throne, equally dazed. The officials in the hall lost their color, and he saw a figure walking from outside the hall, as if death was approaching him.

The courtiers in the hall were all pale-faced and fell into an eerie silence.

Temples, buildings, palaces, caves, mountains and forests—no matter where they are or whether they can see the sky, all living beings are drawn into an indescribable and eerie state.

Those who were reincarnations of demons felt it even more deeply. For example, You Yingying saw the true face of the Dark War Emperor. His ugly and terrifying face shocked her eyes. She wanted to scream for help, but she couldn't make a sound or even move.

It seemed she could only await death!

Even a powerful being like Shen Xinzi, who was at the ninth level of the Immortal Realm, found himself in the same predicament.

As the Dark War Emperor drew ever closer, Shen Xinzi gritted his teeth, feeling both terrified and uneasy.

He couldn't comprehend the other person's supernatural powers, nor could he accept his own fate.

In reality, the Dark War Emperor, raising his right arm, revealed a maniacal and cruel smile. Rolling black energy surged from his palm, forming a sea of ​​clouds that blotted out the sky. Then, a black spear condensed in his palm, its surface surrounded by mysterious runes, exuding a repressive and ominous aura.

"Let me test your abilities!"

The Dark Emperor licked his teeth, his hoarse voice filled with boundless killing intent.

suddenly!

He looked up abruptly and saw a bright light emanating from the rolling black sea of ​​clouds. His expression changed slightly, and he gripped his gun with both hands, unleashing a powerful aura that shook the heavens and the earth.

The sea below suddenly collapsed, a truly spectacular sight!

He poured all his magical power into the spear in his hand, and black flames burst forth from the spear. Countless wronged souls emerged from it, frantically trying to break free of their restraints, but they could not do so at all.

Beyond the heavens, the mysterious beings within the seven suns opened their eyes and all looked toward the vast and boundless world of the Heavenly Spirit.

From the outside of the sky, a black dot appeared in the magnificent and dazzling world, and that black dot was rapidly growing larger.

Inside the Third Medicine Valley.

Ji Xiaoyu suddenly also fell into the strange state of being the reincarnation of the Heavenly Demon. She saw the true face of the Dark War Emperor. The Dark War Emperor stepped across the medicine garden and was walking towards her.

She had seen this scene in her dreams several times, but when she faced it in person, the feeling was completely different.

An overwhelming sense of fear and despair gripped her heart; she tried to banish these emotions, but to no avail.

"hateful……"

Ji Xiaoyu gritted her teeth, and the red Dao pattern between her brows quickly lengthened, swirling with flames.

She is using the power of innate Dao talismans!
Just then, a burst of bright light erupted from behind her, dispelling the darkness in her vision. She instinctively turned her head and caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of her eye. Her pupils suddenly dilated.

That was a sword shadow!
A sword shadow flashing with silver light!
Thousands of lightning bolts intertwined on the sword's shadow, shaping the sword's body!
Ji Xiaoyu had never seen such a sword before. It seemed to have come from ancient times, crossing the long river of time. Wherever the sword's edge reached, darkness was constantly shattered.

At that moment, not only she, but all the desperate people of the continent saw such a sword.

Thank you for the 500 Qidian coins I'm giving you and her; it's a sincere donation!
