In a restaurant in Shulan City. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Have you heard, the son of our city lord, the genius of the Awakened Nefarem, Tang Rui Tang Gongzi, has an accident!"

"What's wrong?" "You don't know yet!" ”

"I heard that Tang Gongzi had a problem when he broke through, and he was attacked by the demon clan powerhouse, so that the breakthrough failed, and he couldn't cultivate!"

"Really, fake, you won't lie to us, Tang Gongzi is so powerful, and the City Lord's Mansion is heavily guarded, how can there be a demon clan entering?"

"You don't know yet, the once-in-a-century demon tribulation is coming soon, so run away. ”

The people in the restaurant are mixed, and the discussion is constant, but there are many people who have passed the news, and the real situation has long been inconsistent with the reality. However, everyone knows the two most basic information, one is that the once-in-a-century demon clan catastrophe is coming, and the other is that Tang Rui, the son of the city lord Tang Zhen, has a problem with his cultivation.

In the mercenary guild, a man wearing a robe and a hat took on the task of hunting the tail of the fourth-level demon beast Phantom Demon Fox, listened to the discussions of the people around him on the same topic, sneered, and walked towards the Dark Forest.

In the depths of the Dark Forest, in front of the mouth of a claustrophobic cave, the man wearing a hat took out a scale and shouted into the cave, "I want to meet the Snake King, go and spread it quickly!"

This man is actually the Netherworld Serpent King, one of the three demon kings of the Dark Forest.

After the time when there was a stick of incense, a voice came from the cave, "Hey, hiss, it's the lord of Lyle, come in." "He is the Netherworld Snake King among the Three Demon Kings.

"Lord Demon King, I haven't seen you for many days. The black-robed man took off his hat and revealed his face, which turned out to be Lyle, the deputy city lord of Shulan City, "I wonder when the demon king is going to slaughter the city?"

"Hey, hey, don't worry, but the deputy city lord, have you already found out the news in the city?" asked the Netherworld Snake King Senran, "What is the strength of the support troops from your Longyuan Empire this time?"

"I have found out everything, the city lord Tang Zhen and his wife Shiryl should be fifth-level awakeners, Tang Zhen majored in thunder energy, and Shirlier majored in earth element energy, and the rest of the generals in the city were only fourth-level awakeners. "Lyle sent the information of everyone in Shulan City to the Snake King one by one, "Among the support troops in the imperial capital, the general Lin Kai is a fifth-level cultivator, suspected of cultivating the earth's rock and earth energy, and his strength is quite strong; there is also a pair of brothers named Wang Kun and Wang Peng, who have never shown their means, but they should also be fifth-level cultivators; plus a woman named Liu Qingsha, who is a fifth-level elemental master, and is estimated to be between Shirryl. The most noteworthy thing for adults is an old man known as 'Meng Lao', this person's strength is unfathomable, and it is very likely that he is a sixth-level powerhouse!"

"Huh, it is worthy of the Longyuan Empire, the troops supported by such a remote area actually have a sixth-level powerhouse, but even if it is a sixth-level awakened person, hiss, hiss, it can't make any waves!" Netherworld Snake King Senran smiled, "City Lord Lyle, you did a good job, this is a fifth-level demon core, you can accept it, as a credit for your intelligence this time." If this festival is successful, there will be a great reward. ”

"Xie Snake King cultivation, the three demon kings will definitely be able to succeed and take Shulan City in one fell swoop, but I also ask the snake king to kill all the people and others, leaving a small number of people, and after I inherit the position of the city lord, I will continue to let the people in the city multiply, and provide rations for the three adults from time to time, I don't know what the snake king wants?"

"Hey, hey, I can't imagine that you are not only ambitious, but you are also so ruthless to your own race, this kind of means is not common even in our demon society, huh, huh, since you have such a good plan, the three of us will fulfill you. However, you will provide us with 10,000 rations every year! If you can't do it, don't blame us for turning our faces and not recognizing people!" When the Nether Snake King heard Lyle's suggestion, he couldn't help but feel sorry in his heart, "Hmph, I'll give you a taste of sweetness first, and if you really think of yourself as a character, let's just let him be beautiful for a while." ”

Lyle, who had already left the cave, put on his hat again, and stroked the demon core that the snake king had just given him with his right thumb and forefinger, "This demon king is really generous, he actually gave me a fifth-level demon core, so that it is easier for me to break through the fifth level, but this is only a drop in the bucket for those three adults." ”

The Dark Forest is only a hundred miles away from Shulan City, and there is a small stronghold every ten miles, and it is the soldiers of Shulan City who are monitoring the movements of the Dark Forest.

In response to the invasion of the demon clan, Tang Zhen had already explained everything to the citizens of Shulan City, which was a kind of calamity that Shulan City had already known after nearly a thousand years of history. Tang Zhen's position as the city lord also succeeded the previous old city lord ten years ago, when he took over the position of the city lord, the Longyuan Empire informed Tang Zhen of the once-in-a-century demon tribulation, considering that the old city lord was old, and there was no suitable successor among the heirs, plus Tang Zhen was a fifth-level awakened person enough to defend one side.

Although the people of Shulan City were panicked, there was no sign of riots, and the elders who were over 100 years old had experienced at least one demon tribulation, recalling the terrible years, all that was left was the thoughts of their deceased relatives and endless resentment towards the demon clan.

Xiao Tang Rui didn't cultivate in the courtyard today, he hadn't cultivated for several days. Ever since he knew that he couldn't store energy in his body, Xiao Tangrui's will was a little depressed. During this period, he also studied the Xuanao Purple Pattern in detail several times but found nothing, and since then, the former high-spirited and self-proclaimed genius Xiao Tang Rui has disappeared little by little, playing with Liya every day, going to the market in his spare time, and changing from a hard-working cultivator back to a teenager who spends his days playing.

Tang Zhen and his wife were helpless about this, a little disappointed and more hopeful that little Tang Rui could live happily. Every night when the family of four has dinner together, Tang Zhen and Shirley will enlighten Xiao Tang Rui and guide him not to be knocked down by the cruel reality, Xiao Tang Rui's mood every day is neither good nor bad, he is very satisfied with his parents, but he feels that there is something missing in his life.

The once-in-a-century demon tribulation made the atmosphere of the entire Shulan City a little depressing, no matter where it was, what people talked about the most was when the demon clan would attack the city, and whether Shulan City could resist the invasion of the demon clan. The people were in a panic, but the soldiers of Shulan City were stepping up their training, sometimes listening to the old instructor tell the scene of the last demon tribulation.

These old instructors were specially arranged by Tang Zhen to explain to the soldiers who had not yet experienced the Demon Tribulation, the purpose was to let them have a preparation in their hearts and increase a glimmer of hope for being stocked up in the war, although that glimmer of hope was very slim. The war between races is not a battle between one or two strong men, it is the strength of a race.

If there is a peerless powerhouse who can control the hundreds of millions of lives in this Cangling Continent with the power of one person, I am afraid that it is only possible for a god to do it.
