The news of the demon army's return from the Demon-Slaying City was like a thunderclap falling into deep water, instantly causing an uproar throughout the human realm.

The heavens were shocked, and hundreds of millions of people on earth were plunged into panic.

Even the Wen family royal family was somewhat bewildered.

All seventy-two demon kings perished, and the Abyss Dragon Demon King also perished. Only the heavily injured Demon Lord and a few great demons like Murong Yan remained, yet they managed to launch a counterattack.

In other words, they actually have the strength to fight back against the demon race now?!

But when the high-ranking officials of the Nine Heavens and countless cultivators and mortals saw the message sent back from the Demon Slayer City, their faces turned deathly pale.

On the jade slip sent back from the Demon-Slaying City using a celestial artifact, there was a line of small, blood-red characters written in bold...

The demon race has returned, with millions of demon cultivators and demon creatures, and nearly a hundred half-step True Immortals have appeared...

This news was obtained by the king of the first city of Demon Slayer City, who risked his life to bring it back.

According to the message that came back.

Six months after the end of the Battle of Shangyuan, many cultivators and garrison soldiers of Zhanyao City retired and returned to their hometowns, intending to enjoy a peaceful time.

The human people were completely relieved.

However, six months after the Battle of Shangyuan, the demon race suddenly attacked the first city of Zhanyao City.

The Demon Slayer City is divided into fifteen main cities, each of which is further divided into hundreds of smaller cities. Countless human cities form a defensive line in this perilous place, holding the line between the human and demon realms.

Among the fifteen main cities, the First City has the strongest combat power.

The lord of the First City is a king, bestowed the title of Mountain and Sea King by the royal family and the people. He is a sword cultivator at the half-step True Immortal realm.

King Shan Hai was also a renowned human powerhouse for thousands of years.

There are not many true immortals on the mainland nowadays. There are only the heads of the four great immortal clans, the grand elders of the four great immortal sects, the three grand elders of the royal family, and the two true immortals of the Heavenly God Academy.

Of the three Venerables of the Heavenly God Academy, Venerable Fuyu ascended to heaven, Venerable Tongyu disappeared, leaving only Venerable Changyu as a true immortal.

Fortunately, Ye Qingxin, the third-best diviner in the world, was promoted to True Immortal.

But all things considered, the number of True Immortals among humans is definitely no more than twenty.

The number of half-step True Immortals is not too many, after all, it involves touching the realm of immortality, which is not so easy.

The top elders of the Nine Heavens, the hidden powerhouses of the royal family, and a few powerful kings from the Demon Slayer City.

However, the number of human demigods will not exceed forty or fifty.

But now, this earth-shattering jade slip clearly states that nearly a hundred half-step True Immortals have appeared within the demon army?!

What is the content of this?

What exactly happened to the demon race?!

now.

Nine Heavens, Heavenly God Academy, Heavenly God Mountain.

The four great immortal clans, the four great immortal sects, the royal family, and some top immortal sects gathered together to discuss this matter within the Heavenly God Mountain.

Countless powerful figures, even some hidden half-step True Immortals from the Nine Heavens, appeared.

But everyone looked very unwell.

He simply stared intently at the jade slip sent back from the Demon-Slaying City at the very front.

According to current information...

Nearly a hundred half-step True Immortals inexplicably appeared among the demon race, led by Murong Yan and the Demon King Li Su.

There aren't many true immortals, but there are far too many half-step true immortals.

The demon race launched a swift counterattack, having already captured the first city of Demon Slayer City and even beginning to attack the second city.

At this moment, inside Mount Tianshen.

Venerable Changyu sat at the very front of the council hall and solemnly began, "Gentlemen, Fellow Daoist Shan Hai has perished in battle, and the first main city of Demon Slayer City has fallen. I have convened the Heavenly God Mountain Assembly today for only one purpose, and that is..."

"war!"

That's right.

Upon learning of this, Venerable Changyu immediately dispatched reinforcements from the Heavenly God Academy to Demon Slayer City and summoned cultivators from the Nine Heavens to gather together.

Venerable Changyu stood before the many top experts and spoke earnestly, "Actually, there's nothing to discuss. The reason I've gathered everyone here today is to bring together all human cultivators to go to Demon Slaying City to resist the demon race."

"According to the intelligence, the overall cultivation level of the demon army has not changed, and even the number of True Immortals has not increased. After the death of the seventy-two demon kings, only the Demon Lord and three or four True Immortals, including Murong Yan and Li Su, remain."

"but……"

Venerable Changyu's brows furrowed, and his voice was low, "Nearly a hundred demon cultivators who are half-immortals do exist. Although we don't know exactly what happened to the demon race, we are indeed in big trouble..."

Venerable Changyu resolutely surveyed his surroundings, raised his hand, and declared, "I, Changyu, hereby swear that I will protect humanity and Demon-Slaying City with my life. I also hope that none of you will hide in this battle; we must counterattack and defend to the death!"

Upon hearing this, the great cultivators of the Nine Heavens nodded in righteous indignation.

Yu Yuan said coldly, "These demons are truly indestructible. Let's fight them!"

The sect leader of the Holy Pill Sect wiped the sweat from his brow guiltily. "Those are nearly a hundred half-step True Immortals, and I'm only at the Great Ascension stage..."

That's right. Even if we include the hidden experts, the human race has no more than twenty True Immortals and at most forty or fifty Half-Step True Immortals.

After all, those who possess the power of immortals can ascend to heaven, and not all humans who become immortals are willing to suppress their cultivation to protect humanity.

But now, the demon race is coming on strong, and they have to take action!

Su Muyu and Zhong Liyu, the couple, spoke in unison, "There's nothing to say. Let's wake up the elders who are in seclusion now and head to Demon Slayer City today."

You Jin'an nodded, "Yes, we can't waste any more time. With nearly a hundred half-step True Immortals, even the second city of Demon Slayer City won't be able to hold out for long..."

Everyone knows this.

If all fifteen main cities of the Demon Slayer City were to be conquered, then the entire territory of the Nine Provinces of the Human Race would fall into the eyes of the boundless Demon Race.

That would be a devastating tragedy.

In the past, the Demon-Slaying City separated humans from demons, so even if some demons hid their presence and infiltrated the human race, it wouldn't be a catastrophe.

However, if the demon army were to invade, the human race would face annihilation.

Inside Mount Tian Shen, a cultivator scratched his head in frustration. "Damn it, Young Master Yu obtained five strands of spiritual energy within the Ancestral Dragon Secret Realm, and the human race alone possesses eight strands of dragon energy. Why is their fortune still so strange?"

Xie Lingyi's intelligent and beautiful face also showed a heavy expression. "I just used divination techniques to do some calculations, and the source of this matter seems to be related to..."

The woman pointed to the sky.

Everyone's eyelids twitched wildly in fear.

sky……

sky?

day!

One of the cultivators, unable to contain himself, slammed his fist on the table in shock. "Patriarch Xie, are you saying... there are people in heaven helping the demon race, powerful figures from the immortal realm!"

Xie Lingyi nodded. "According to the calculations, that's indeed the case."

suddenly.

Two cranes perched outside the council hall.

The head of the Tianji Pavilion and his disciple also entered Tianshen Mountain.

Pavilion Master Chu Zhao wore a white veil and was dressed in white, her movements graceful and elegant.

Everyone was immediately taken aback. "You are... that person from the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion..."

Chu Zhao nodded, then spoke seriously to those around him, "Patriarch Xie's calculations are correct. This matter is indeed related to the immortals in heaven. There are immortals in heaven helping the demon race."

Everyone's hearts sank immediately.

After all, if a powerful being from the heavens were to intervene, the people of their realm might not be able to do anything.

There is a difference between immortals and mortals!

That's how it is in the world of cultivation.

You Jin'an seemed to have noticed a flaw in that statement and couldn't help but ask, "Can celestial beings in heaven easily descend to the mortal realm?"

"That's right," a senior cultivator nodded, "The Immortal Realm and the Tongxuan Continent are separated by a boundary wall. How could they possibly descend to the mortal realm?"

Chu Zhao nodded. "Logically, that's how it is, but the other party didn't descend to the mortal realm, did he? After all, he only helped the demon race gain nearly a hundred more half-step True Immortals."

Everyone immediately understood.

No wonder the overall strength of the human army has not changed.

The true immortals of the demon race have not changed either.

The seventy-two demon kings did not revive.

The sudden appearance of nearly a hundred half-step True Immortals among the demon race was actually...

Is he a man-made sage?
