I bear witness to immortality in the human world.

Above the sky.

Gao Yuanheng single-handedly fought against the two old demon emperors, displaying his unparalleled martial arts skills. Although he had not mastered the power of laws and had not reached the level of a peerless grandmaster, he was still a top expert and still had the upper hand in a fight against two opponents!
On the other side, Yan Chuyu was locked in a fierce battle with the Demon Emperor Yu Heng, with no clear winner. Yan Chuyu had only recently broken through to the seventh level of the Blood Realm, and Yu Heng had also only recently become a Demon Emperor. Both of them were only at the level of a normal Grandmaster. Their fight was far less intense than the battle on Gao Yuanheng's side, but their close combat was full of deadly moves and extremely dangerous.

On the city gate.

Large numbers of warriors and soldiers fought against the evil spirits, creating a scene like a meat grinder.

Behind the city gate, teams of soldiers were either transporting supplies or preparing to provide support. Despite the fierce battle at the front, which was as brutal as mountains of corpses and seas of blood, things remained orderly at the rear.

"Decades have passed in a flash, and things have really changed. Miss Yan from back then is now a grandmaster."

An elderly man with white hair and a wrinkled face, who was overseeing the delivery of supplies, looked up at the battle in the sky. His expression was a mixture of tension and emotion.

He was Huang Lin, the former head of the Censorate. Now he was old and retired, enjoying his retirement in his mansion. However, he never expected that the demon race would come on strong and start a great war. Even an old man like him was forced to return to the battlefield.

However, given his age and declining health, even though he was once a martial artist who had achieved four levels of blood coagulation, he now has little strength left. He might not even be able to defeat a strong, three-blood martial artist. But despite his declining strength, his vision remains. He can still command a logistics team and be responsible for transporting various supplies in a very orderly manner.

"Master Yan and Master Gao can hold off three demon emperors. We still have ten thousand-man teams here. The demon race should be running out of manpower. It should only be a matter of time before we defeat them."

Zhou Ruoyun, carrying a long sword on her back, stood not far away, also gazing at the battle in the sky.

After many years,

She is already the head of a department that has achieved four blood clotting procedures.

Compared to Yan Chuyu, who was able to follow Wu Ming to the Holy Land, she did not have such an opportunity. Her talent was also inferior to Yan Chuyu's. Even her three attempts at blood clotting were fraught with difficulties and she barely succeeded. However, her father, as Wu Ming's former mentor, had shown him great kindness, which allowed her to enjoy many substantial benefits in Jingye City.

Many resources that she previously struggled to obtain were now given priority in selection or directly delivered to her, allowing her to eventually advance further and reach the fourth stage of blood clotting.

As the saying goes, "When one person attains enlightenment, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven."

Wu Ming rose to prominence in Jingye City, like a dragon leaping from the abyss. As he climbed higher and higher, many of his former acquaintances benefited from his rise. For example, the Chen family is now a prestigious clan in Jingye City. Chen Gui's eldest son has now taken over as the head of the Chen family and is also a master of four-stage blood coagulation, a young and outstanding talent.

Not to mention the Wu clan, whose power in Jingye City is even greater than that of the Chen family. The entire clan already has two members with the surname Wu who have achieved the fourth blood coagulation, and the clan has grown to several thousand people.

On the city gate,
As time went on, the order of the demon race began to become increasingly chaotic.

As blood and flesh flew everywhere and the number of corpses continued to increase, the demon race, which was already violent, became somewhat out of control. Some of the demons even fought each other for flesh and blood, and even fought among themselves. This was basically the case every time they attacked a city.

Just as the demon army was about to collapse and the siege was about to end in failure, a white shadow suddenly appeared in the distant sky and arrived above the city gate after a few flashes.

"Ok?"

Both Gao Yuanheng and Yan Chuyu's expressions changed.

The white figure paused in the sky; it was a young girl dressed in light gauze, with a graceful figure. Her beauty seemed otherworldly, and at first glance, one would feel somewhat mesmerized. But as one's mind broke free, it was replaced by horror.

Especially in the eyes of some Daoist masters at the fifth or sixth level of cultivation, the scene was even more terrifying. The overwhelming demonic aura emanating from the girl was even stronger than the three demon emperors who were fighting Gao Yuanheng and Yan Chuyu!
"Something bad has happened."

Gao Yuanheng's movements, which had been suppressing the two demon emperors, were momentarily slowed down, and his expression turned ugly.

The demon that has transformed into human form before us, though its background is unknown, judging from its demonic aura, may not have reached the eighth transformation level, but it is definitely a peak demon emperor among the seventh transformation!

He wouldn't be afraid of facing a demon emperor of this level alone, but there were three other demon emperors present besides him. Don't be fooled by the fact that he suppressed two of them on his own; these demon emperors were by no means ordinary!

Once the restraint of the grandmaster-level figures is removed, and these demon emperors charge into the army formation below, rivers of blood will immediately flow!
Without any hesitation,

Gao Yuanheng immediately crushed a jade talisman in his sleeve. This was a talisman used to request aid from various border regions of Yong Kingdom, and it was personally crafted by Meng Huaizhen, the abbot of the Daoist academy.

After the jade talisman shattered, Gao Yuanheng quickly received a response from Meng Huaizhen.

"I have sent the nearest Master Lin to provide support. It will take at least fifteen minutes. We must hold on..."

This is a voice transmission emerging from the broken jade talisman.

Having received Meng Huaizhen's reply, Gao Yuanheng breathed a slight sigh of relief; he could still put up a fight for a quarter of an hour.

but,
The next moment, the demon emperor made his move.

She raised her slender hand and pointed at Gao Yuanheng. In an instant, an invisible power of illusion spread over and surged into Gao Yuanheng's consciousness, causing many illusions to appear in his eyes.

"Those unorthodox methods are trying to confuse my mind!"

Gao Yuanheng snorted coldly. As a top master, he was naturally not afraid of such illusion techniques. He simply circulated his blood energy and forcibly broke the illusion.

However, this interruption allowed the two demon emperors he had suppressed to regain their composure. "Are you Gao Yuanheng, the head of the Martial Academy of Yong Kingdom? You're quite skilled at breaking free from my illusion in an instant. But if that's all you've got, you'll probably perish here today."

The girl in the light veil smiled slightly and pointed her finger again.

hum! ! !
This time it was no longer an illusion, but a vast and mighty demonic power surged up, frantically converging in the void and condensing into seven snow-white long tails. Then, the seven long tails gathered together and lashed out at Gao Yuanheng from afar.

The use of her innate divine power also directly exposed the true nature of the veiled girl, who was actually a fox demon!
Boom, boom, boom!
The white long tail struck seven times in a row, like seven long whips. Gao Yuanheng immediately abandoned the two demon emperors that he had suppressed and waved his weapon to defend. He took a step back in the air after the first collision. After seven exchanges, he was forced to retreat seven steps!

"What powerful sorcery! Even the High Priest is at a disadvantage..."

Yan Chuyu, who was fighting against the Demon Emperor Yu Heng, also changed her expression upon seeing this.

She had cultivated in the holy land and witnessed countless top masters, and even experienced the methods of peerless masters. Although the methods of this demon fox in front of her had not yet reached the level of peerless masters, they were not far off.

With such methods and such overwhelming demonic energy, the opponent is clearly no ordinary person among the demon race. This sudden attack has caused the situation to deteriorate rapidly and become extremely dire.

It's not just Yan Chuyu.

People below the city gate, such as Huang Lin, also looked grim.

Anyone could see that this newly appeared demon emperor was even stronger than Gao Yuanheng. In this way, he could suppress Gao Yuanheng on his own, and Yan Chuyu was also restrained. Then, the two demon emperors who were previously suppressed by Gao Yuanheng would be uncontrollable!

Even though the city of Yongguo is guarded and there are grandmasters stationed in the core areas, and reinforcements can arrive in a quarter of an hour at most, before that, no one dares to imagine what the consequences would be if two unrestrained demon emperors ran rampant for a quarter of an hour.

But at that moment,
A voice suddenly broke through the battlefield.

"Looks like I arrived just in time."

Despite the deafening sounds of battle, this sudden sound, though not very loud, strangely spread across the entire battlefield. Almost everyone, regardless of race, heard it as if it were right next to their ears.

Gao Yuanheng was taken aback.

Is it support?
How did you get here so quickly?
Yan Chuyu was also slightly taken aback, but upon hearing that familiar voice, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on her face.

He suddenly turned his head to look.

In the distance, a streak of light, like lightning, came from afar. One moment it was on the horizon, and the next it arrived above the battlefield, accompanied by a bolt of lightning that ripped through the sky.

Upon seeing this, the demon emperors on the demon side all lowered their gazes and turned to look at the newcomers.

When they saw the newcomer's appearance, the three demon emperors, including Yu Heng, showed no change in expression. However, the demon emperor of the Heavenly Fox Clan, who had transformed into a young girl, revealed a hint of surprise and said:
"It's you?"

"..."

Wu Ming, dressed in a simple blue Taoist robe, glanced at the other person indifferently and said, "You recognize me?"

"Of course, even if you were a reincarnated soul possessed, I would still recognize you!"

The Heavenly Fox Clan Demon Emperor stared at Wu Ming and spoke coldly.

Many years ago, she traveled here. At that time, her cultivation was still shallow, and she was only a fourth-level demon. She encountered Wu Ming here and fought a great battle, but was no match for him. She was then chased by Wu Ming all the way. Her memory of Wu Ming was unforgettable, and she had never suffered such a huge loss before.

After returning to its clan, it devoted itself to cultivation and constantly honed its skills. Later, it even received the inheritance of the Holy Ancestor of the Celestial Fox Clan and stepped into the Seven Transformations Realm, which was a world apart from its former self.

Now, encountering her old enemy again, the hatred in her heart immediately surged up. She knew that Wu Ming had almost become a knot in her heart. But as the saying goes, fortune and misfortune are intertwined. If she could defeat Wu Ming, or even kill him, and break this knot in her heart, her cultivation would surely improve greatly, and she would not be far from the eighth transformation of the Venerable One!
"As expected, you have also become a Grandmaster of Daoist arts. I knew that with your abilities, you would inevitably reach this point. However, I have now received the inheritance of my clan's Holy Ancestor, and today I must address you..."

hum!
Before he could finish speaking, the entire sky suddenly darkened.

A vast expanse of dense, boundless lightning erupted from the dark clouds and crashed down. Countless bolts of lightning intersected and formed a gigantic palm, which stretched for tens of feet. Every palm line was clearly visible, and upon closer inspection, they were all interwoven with arcs of lightning!

The Heavenly Fox Demon King, feeling the overwhelming power that resembled the might of heaven, stopped speaking abruptly. Its eyes widened instantly, and then it reacted, letting out a whimper. It unleashed its full demonic power, condensing long tails to meet the attack.

But no matter what method was used, it collapsed and disintegrated the moment it touched that thunderous hand, offering no resistance whatsoever.

Boom!!
Then, the thunderous hand descended from the sky with overwhelming force, directly suppressing the Heavenly Fox Demon Emperor and sending him plummeting towards the outside of the city gate, crashing into the demon horde with a deafening roar.

With a single move, he crushed nearly a hundred demons at the second and third transformation stages. At the same time, the lightning that had condensed into his palm exploded, spreading for hundreds of feet and turning all the demons within a radius of hundreds of feet into ashes!
This time,
The entire battlefield came to a standstill.

Almost everyone, including Yan Chuyu, was shocked by what they saw.

Wu Ming, who had unleashed this move, simply withdrew his right hand indifferently. He had already remembered the identity of the Heavenly Fox Clan Demon Emperor, though the memory was somewhat distant; it was a demon fox that had once escaped from his grasp.

This was a trivial matter, and he naturally had no interest in listening to the other person finish speaking. (End of Chapter)
