The Holy City, also known as the City of Light, is the largest and most prosperous city in the West. Its prosperity lies not only in the fact that the kings of the Gulei Empire lived here, but also that it was also home to the Holy Religion's Temple of Light. The Holy Religion originated from the group of light magicians, and is known as the "four major religions" in the world, along with Buddhism and Taoism in the East and Catholicism in the north. Its development origin is not as long as Taoism and Buddhism, but the speed of its spread is definitely the fastest among the "four major religions", and its influence is close to the oldest sect in the East - Taoism. And the Western Continent was also the first to be named the "Shengyuan Continent" by the Holy Religion.

Late at night, no wind.

The stars are twinkling, and the moon is in the sky. It was a sweet and quiet night, and ordinary people were already asleep.

On the streets, there is no reduction in the flow of people because of the night. Most of these people who haunt the night are some mercenary teams and some cultivators who travel everywhere. Some of them had just finished their mission and rushed back from outside the city to rest. Some have just received the task, taking advantage of the night to get ahead of others. After all, easy and easy tasks are not just taken on by one person.

"Roar—roar—roar—"

The roar of rage and anxiety suddenly tore through the silence and resounded throughout the city.

Suddenly, from quiet to noisy, the city was in chaos. The people who had fallen asleep were all awakened and got up one after another. The demon pets that inhabited the city huddled in a dark corner in terror and shivered, and even worse, they quickly abandoned their lord and fled out of the city.

The roar was deafening, like a tiger's roar, and like a dragon's roar.

"Is it it?"

"Tiger Dragon. ”

Shocked people speculated.

According to the Holy History, the second Pope of the Holy Sect, Feltun, knew that he had no chance to step further into the realm of the Holy Magician when he had a short lifespan. He went to the forbidden island in the East China Sea and found the tiger dragon, one of the members of the light dragon clan. Surrender it and bring it back to the Holy Religion, where it will be named 'Kus' as the Guardian Sacred Beast of the Holy Religion.

Felton also died of his injuries soon after. After Kus, who guarded the Temple of Light, brought it back, he was restless twice, and each time it was a powerful enemy. The last time was tens of thousands of years later. Everyone knows these historical materials, from high-level cultivators to commoners. However, today, the Holy Beast Kus roared again, which had to make everyone in the Holy City tense their nerves.

Suddenly, a heat wave hit. Immediately after, a red light connecting the east and west, across the northern sky, appeared.

The red light immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"What's that?"

"My god of light! what the hell is that?"

"Could it be that the roar of the holy beast is because of this?" ......

On the street, there was a lot of noise.

Before long, the inky sky was already invaded by red brilliance. Not only that, but the red color is slowly spreading. It seems to be slow, but in the blink of an eye, it spreads to the Holy City in large areas.

As if sensing the approaching crisis, people gathered with their families and looked up to the sky in shock.

Tension spread through the city, and the rapidly rising heat seemed to tell everyone that it was fire, a fire rushing in the sky, not a cloud.

The fire in the sky swept like a flood that burst its banks. Patches of fire covered the sky and rolled, really like an endless red sea. The flame reflected everything, red, and at this time it became the only main color in heaven and earth. The people looked up in horror at the fire that seemed to be a beast of desolation. The scorching temperature reminds them that none of this is an illusion, nor is it a dream.

"Roar—roar—roar—"

Kuss's uneasy roar pulled the shocked people back to reality, which was a warning of danger and a strong enemy. The smell of terror and danger is getting stronger and stronger. Most people involuntarily moved closer to the Temple of Light, as if it were the only barrier they relied on.

In a moment, there was a panic in the city, and one of the leaders fled outside the city, and most of the people fled outside the city as well.

"Quick...... Fast...... Hurry up ......"

Kafir stood on the tower of the Holy City and shouted loudly to the soldiers gathered from all sides below.

However, at this time, Murray had already led the royal family's dragoon guards to ride the sky dragon one after another, and lined up neatly over the holy city. Dozens of sky dragons were hovering in the air. Generally, there are no special positions, and horses are not allowed in the sky above the Holy City. Not only the holy cities, but also the capitals and main cities of various countries are forbidden to ride on mounts above the city. This is regarded as an insult to the country, and it will be killed immediately without asking the reason. There are exceptions, except for members of the royal family of the home country or the dragoon guards of the royal family. Of course, the Holy Religion is a special existence, their clothing, their signs are amnesty, and they can ride their mounts and fly into the royal capital of any Western country.

Kafir is the general who guards the Holy City. Over half a hundred years old, the white beard that reaches the lower abdomen is a testimony of the years. In his life, Rong Ma has fought more than 700 large and small battles, and there are only a handful of defeats. In the early years, he was the deputy head of the Iron Blood Mercenary Regiment, and it is said that he organized the members of the group to complete A-level tasks, and became famous for a while. At this time, although he had not fought for several years, his courage did not seem to have diminished at all, but he became much more refined.

Murray, the elite of the elite cultivated by the royal family, is the captain of the Dragoon Guards who guard the safety of the royal family. At only twenty-five years old, he is already one of the few Dou Ling levels in the empire. What's more, he is still young, and his future prospects are limitless.

The sea of fire saw that it was near, and the strange thing was that the sea of fire did not continue to move, but surrounded the sky and the sun, and it didn't take long for the holy city to be completely covered.

Inside the temple, the current Pope Venus stood at the door of the main hall, looking up at the flames in the sky, and smiled contemptuously: "A group of lowly ants, stubborn, dare to resist the God of Light. Then he turned back and entered the temple, and gradually disappeared into darkness.

A laugh followed, followed by a cry from the depths of darkness, something abrupt and eerie in the empty and quiet hall.

The sea of fire centered on the holy city swirled slowly, gradually descending.

"The elemental archers are ready to take their positions to meet the enemy, the magic legion, the first regiment is south of the city, the second regiment is north, the third regiment is east, the fourth regiment is west, the fifth regiment and the sixth regiment are going to guard the temple, the seventh, eighth, and ninth regiments are going to follow me to the castle, and is your man deployed?" Kaffir Visse ordered loudly to the army generals below, maybe even General Veser himself didn't know that the voice just now was louder and more passionate than before. Years of peace and happiness have not worn out his fighting spirit. In the past two years, I often recall the scene of my youth, and the boiling blood cannot be explained. He knows that winning or losing will be the last battle of his life. The strength of the enemy is something he has never encountered in his life, and these visions have only been said by the ancestors, and the allusions have been recorded, which are unheard of in ordinary times. The experience of his life tells him that this time he will be ruined, and the only hope is the Holy Sect, it is said that there is a Holy Magician in the Holy Sect, whether it is true or not, after all, the background of the Holy Sect is not something that ordinary people can figure out.

"Yes general" "Yes general"...... The generals of one side should answer the promise.

"Yes, General. A middle-aged man stepped forward and saluted. This man was none other than Toron, the leader of the Infantry Cavalry, under the command of Kaffir Visser.

After the deep sea of red fire covered the Holy City, it did not stop there. The sea of fire swirled slowly over the Holy City, pressing down. As a result, the temperature is getting higher and higher.

Suddenly, the center of the sea of fire swirled, and a round of black holes was opened. The black hole is as black as ink, like a bottomless abyss, making it impossible to see through.

Like a black hole in the abyss. Not long after, crows with flames flew out one after another.

In the blink of an eye, it was already dense, which made people look frightening. Thousands of crows fluttered their wings and rushed towards the holy city, overwhelming the sky. They didn't make any noise, but the sound of their wings fluttering like a strange wind howling in a cemetery covered all the noise of the city, and terrified everyone.

"Run!" cried out to the people of the city.

As soon as Kafir had finished issuing the order, the enemy had already begun to attack without warning.

"The Magic Legion quickly unleash the Spiritual Barrier Protection. Kafir's exclaimed, it was clear that the enemy's sudden attack had almost thrown him into disarray. A transparent light shield quickly spread out over everyone's heads.

"The archers are free to shoot, and those who have been ordered to leave this alone and go to their respective posts as they have just been told. After saying that, Kafir mounted the electric tiger and led his troops to gallop towards the imperial palace.

"Open!" Mori, who had been riding the Sky Dragon, spread his fighting wings at this moment, stood in the void, and roared. As soon as the voice fell, the dragoon guards behind jumped up and stood on the dragon's back. At the same time, he pushed out his right palm towards Moli in front of him, and the milky white pillars of douqi light quickly converged towards Mori. In an instant, a milky white glossy giant knife slowly took shape on Mori's head.

"Slash!" The hundred-zhang giant knife that had just taken shape immediately rushed towards the center of the sea of fire. Break through the many flame crows and fly towards the center of the sea of fire. The strength of the enemy is beyond Murray's imagination, and the disparity is not just a little bit. Feeling under pressure, Murray had to use his strongest offensive "open mountains and seas" combination attack to annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop, of course, this was only hope.

Murray jumped onto the dragon and gasped for air. Apparently this has already consumed him a lot.

As soon as the huge light knife sank into half of the black hole, it had already exploded, shaking the heavens and the earth. The flames in the sky suddenly extinguished, turning into a little starlight and falling.

The noise suddenly fell silent, and the whole city was silent in the light of the stars slowly falling from the sky.

The footsteps of the people slowly stopped. In the firelight, the nervous face suddenly stretched out, and gradually revealed joy.

"Is it over?" someone muttered to himself.

But the cheers had not yet sounded. The poisonous python transformed into two flames, intersecting head and tail, with dozens of fangs open. Flew out of the black hole at the center of the sea of fire and soared towards the royal dragoon guards.

"Boom!" everything happened in an instant, and the entire team, Murray, was the first to be swallowed by two poisonous pythons.

After the loud sound that resounded through the heavens and the earth, the entire team, dozens of huge sky dragons, there was nothing left, including the two flame giant snakes. All that fell was a speck of flame starlight.

"Are they all dead?" said Kafir, who was galloping down the avenue.

"Ahh

At this time, the city gates on all sides were crowded with people, shoulder to shoulder.

Some of them are not only city residents, but also foreign business travelers.

Now, they're thinking about running as far as they can. They don't want to be involved in this turmoil.

The slow flow of people at the city gate suddenly made people anxious.

After a while, someone finally couldn't resist chanting a magic spell and ascended to heaven. One person is like this, and all those who can fly follow suit. No matter what his rules are, so many people fly together, I don't believe they dare to offend so many people. After all, most of those who can fly are powerful and powerful.

The people who flew outside the city were as dazzling as the flaming crows that filled the sky just now. There are summoners who ride summons, magicians who fly in the sky, oriental monks who fly on flying swords, and high-level fighters who flap their wings.

"Come out! ”

There are space crystals, and the magic pets raised in it are also released.

"Curse his ancestors, I already knew that Lao Tzu would buy a space ring by smashing pots and selling iron. When someone saw it, they couldn't help but look up to the sky and scold.

"Who stipulates that the three-meter-tall, three-meter-long magic pet is not allowed to be brought into the city, that guy is clearly more than four meters old, how can he still be in the city. A guy yelled at the orcs in the distance.

"Forget it, let them go!" the generals who guarded the holy city sighed as they looked at the fleeing men who had defied the forbidden laws.

"The supreme meaning of magic, is the 'domain' really a demi-saint?" said an old man with a long white beard standing on the street with his hands in his hands, looking up into the distance.

"Master Master, Master Master, what is a half-saint?" beside the old man, there were seven little boys, the eldest was probably only eleven or twelve years old, and the youngest was only six or seven years old. The youngest of them asked curiously, pulling the hem of the old man's clothes.

In the endless flow of streets, it seems that they are the only ones who are so calm and relaxed. If they were in normal times, no more, no less, would attract some attention. Of course, those with little experience may disagree.

Uniform white plain clothes, the same diagonal sword, and even the hairstyle of tying is one. One old and seven young, this is not who Li Feiyang, the head of the Dongtu Wudang faction, and his seven little "real people" are.

"Xiao Yi, you are so stupid. Half-saint is another name for a hierarchical title in the West, the highest level of mages and fighters, and the most powerful. The half-saint magician and the fighter are the king magician and the fighting emperor respectively, isn't it? Another little boy stepped forward and said triumphantly, as if their master had agreed with him.

The seven little apprentices all looked at their master curiously.

Li Feiyang looked at the seven little disciples beside him with a smile and paused, "The most powerful?" seems to be the case at the moment. ”

"Huh!" Li Feiyang turned his head and looked at the sea of fire swirling in the air again. As if he saw something, he chuckled, "I see." Then he sighed deeply, "The anger of revenge, it seems that whether it is a cultivator in the East or a cultivator in the West, it is another calamity!"

Li Feiyang looked at the seven puzzled little apprentices, but did not explain what he had just said. He just said faintly: "Disciples, let's go here for the journey of the Gulei Empire!" As soon as the words fell, with Li Feiyang as the center, from under their feet, a round of shining Taiji diagram appeared.

Immediately, the Taiji diagram rose up in the endless stream of streets.

In mid-air, the Taiji diagram suddenly resembled a meteor, carrying eight masters and apprentices, heading towards the east, breaking through the sky.

'This' alarmed a lot of people. After all, flying in the air without the help of foreign objects, except for wind magicians, are generally the best among people. What's more, taking off with the people around you must be those little-known old monsters.

"O master!" exclaimed someone in the street, but in a moment he fled for his life.

On the northeast corner of the Holy City, in the Holy Light Academy, in the center of the 10,000-meter site. Suspended was a large mirror of light with a faint blue glow. The teachers and students in the school lined up in an orderly manner and stepped into the mirror. The mirror is like a bottomless pit, and people keep walking in, but there is no sign of it.

The Academy of Light is the best academy in the Gulei Empire. In addition to the members of the royal family, the students who can enter this academy are all students with considerable potential. Of course, the tutors who teach are also outstanding from all walks of life and departments across the country.

Beneath the suspended mirror, there was an open book. This is one of the few treasures in the Western world, called the 'Divine Book of Time and Space'. This book has the magical power to travel through space and time, but people who know time magic are hard to find, so at present, it can only play the effect of crossing space and teleporting thousands of miles. This book is currently in the possession of the Vice Dean of the Holy Light Academy, Zi Lain, who is one of the few space magicians, and his cultivation is second to none among the group of space magicians known.

A strong enemy is coming, coming. The students in the academy are the pillars of the country's future future, and only by keeping them first can the country have hope in the future. Brian Ziel did not hesitate to lose his money, and spent his mental strength for a long time to open the door of space and teleport the teachers and students in the academy to a safe place.

"My god of light! What's the situation? Lao Tzu has just entered the city in the dark, and the task has not yet been handed over...... A month of sleepless round-ups...... Lao Tzu wants to sleep......"

"Okay, the deputy head has that bit of strength, so let's run for my life quickly!" Buchino Yiguang, a first-class mercenary of the Tianyi Mercenary Regiment, glanced at the deputy head who was the same as Roshan. Then he slapped the mount twice with the inside of his feet. Helplessly, within a kilometer of the city gate, it was surrounded by water, so it could only move slowly along the flow of people.

"The dogs and sheep raised them all gave me a fucking flash ....... A wild man three meters away, impatient with the slow flow of people, picked up an iron rod and swept forward. Before he finished speaking, the iron rod that swept towards the crowd suddenly stopped in the air. A middle-aged man of about 1.7 meters pressed a finger against an iron rod that was only half an inch from his temple.

"Noise. The middle-aged man flicked the bottom of the top of the iron rod, and the stunned wild man was immediately hit in the head by the iron rod that came straight over, unconscious.

The people around him who were screaming impatiently immediately all shut up. The deputy head of the Tianyi Mercenary Regiment immediately retracted his head, and the mouth that he had just wanted to scream again was tightly closed.

Kafir led his men to the square in front of the castle, "Kafir, see His Majesty the King. The God of Light is with His Majesty. Seeing the king standing on the terrace on the second floor of the castle and looking up, Kafir immediately dismounted his mount and saluted.

"Hurry up, General, and talk back. The white cloak fluttered slightly under the night wind, and the golden thunder and lightning pattern on it shone in the red light. A middle-aged man with his hands behind his back, frowning, said to Kafir Wiese in the square below.

This person is none other than the king of the Gulei Empire, Mai Long, thirty-five years old, at the level of a Dou Huang. With his pure thunder fighting spirit, he surpassed all the peers of the royal family and successfully became the king of the Ancient Thunder Empire.

Spreading his vindictive wings, the half-kneeling Kafir jumped slightly. With his wings folded, he was already standing beside Myron.

"Alas, I heard that Murray and they are all dead, and in the face of such an enemy, there is no chance to resist. The West has proclaimed itself emperor, and the witch hunt has set up too many enemies in recent years. The cloaked king glanced at Kafir and sighed deeply.

"Your Majesty, according to the minister's view, the enemy is trying to take advantage of our expeditionary force to attack and attack. At present, the number of enemies cannot be confirmed, but with this large-scale fire-based magic, I think there must be a fire-based king magician among the enemies, and it seems that they are ready to break the net. Kafir's judgment was immediately made.

"If you're a king magician alone, I don't have to worry so much. Myron said, "I really hope that the Holy Sect can make a quick move, General, do you want to remind them that we are about to be overwhelmed?"

"Your Majesty, the minister is going to ask the Holy Sect for help. ”

"Well, then there's General Law. With that, Myron turned and entered the castle.

Kafir walked to the edge of the platform and shouted to the army lined up below, "Surround the castle and unfurl the Thunder Shield." Remember to only defend, not attack. Without my order, the thunder mask will not be withdrawn, and I will defend it to the end. ”

As soon as the words fell, the troops in the square were already quickly surrounding the castle. Immediately, a barrier of lightning rose from all sides, dusty, flashing barrier, and from time to time it sounded, the sound of electric entanglement, collision, and after a while, the barrier of lightning had completely enveloped the castle.

"Venus, you bastard, under the guise of witch hunting and slaughtering black, unifying the West and guarding against the East. Secretly expanding your power behind your back, collecting witchcraft and forbidden magic, I will judge you on behalf of the Magic Guild. The anger was not so deafening, but everyone in the city heard it clearly, as if in their ears.

At first glance, the fire cloud in the sky had transformed into a giant human face at some point, and the human face opened its mouth angrily at the Temple of Light, as if what he had just said was said by this giant human face.

"Venus, the Holy Pope. It seems to be revenge. Kafir secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hah, ha, ha, ha, ha......"

"Venus, get out of here, I'm going to kill you. The huge face was furious.

“......”

Sometimes excited, sometimes angry, two different expressions keep changing on one face, very weird.

"Roar—roar—roar—"

Kus roared and stomped towards the ever-changing face. Every time Kus stepped on the void, a circle of light rippled from under his hooves, as if stepping on the water.

"Look at it, it's a holy beast," someone exclaimed.

"Look at the, don't go quickly. I haven't moved a single step in front of me. ”

"After this time, Lao Tzu must buy a bird and beast to ride, everyone is already watching the excitement on the hill over there, and we are still stuck here. ”

"Hey, Brother Batu, it's my brother, take me here!" someone shouted at the acquaintance who flew into the sky.

"Roar—" Kus stopped near the massive face, and suddenly Kuth's angry eyes turned into white holes, glowing white from time to time. After another roar, a portal of light comparable to the massive flaming human face unfolded behind Kuth.

Like small meteors, white light suddenly flew out of the portal of light and shot straight at the big face.

"Isn't that the wrath of the God of Light, the forbidden magic, the God of Light?"

"What a wrath of the God of Light!"

"It's too rebellious, forbidden magic, is it tenth?"

"Bang, bang, bang......" The sound of explosions came one after another, and the huge face with clear facial features was also unrecognizable at this time. And the explosions are still continuous, and there is no intention of stopping.

It was impossible to distinguish between day and night, and the entire heavenly dome was completely obscured by the burning sea of fire.

People under the fire can clearly see the beating of flames in each other's eyes, which makes people tremble. Ying's red face was burned by the heat, and the sweat had evaporated before it dripped down.

Rows of archers are on the ramparts, and mages are ready to chant magical spells. Infantry cavalry maintained order at the gates of the city and guarded various important places.

After the continuous bombardment, the face that was so distorted that it could no longer be distorted had disappeared at this time, submerged into the sea of fire, obscuring the sky and the sun.

In the sky, a flame burst into flames, and an old man appeared.

The Tiger Dragon Kus stared at the old man, who was dozens of times smaller than his own body, and it looked at him vigilantly, and did not continue to attack.

Dozens of flashes of light flickered, and at some point behind Kus stood a group of mysterious people in white robes, all of whose faces were hidden in their caps, and they couldn't see their true faces.

"Hehe, how are old friends?" said another person beside Kus. The white-gold crown reflects the tumbling sea of fire, like a cluster of flames beating. The white cloak hung behind him, just a corner gently flipped. The words are light, and the left hand is slightly behind him. The majestic body seemed to have been standing there for a long time, not moving an inch.

"Hmph! Speaking of old friends, how can we be missing. A cold snort came from the sea of fire, and then one after another figures appeared from the sea of fire.

There are nine figures in total, two women and seven men. Appeared behind the old man.

"Hahaha! It's so good that the cores of Miao Snow Country, Earth and Rock Country, and Wind Valley are all here. Venus laughed wildly, "You all came to the Imperial Capital to deal with me, do you really think that the Blazing Congress will help you resist the Empire's expeditionary force?"

Among the nine people, a middle-aged man in ice blue armor calmly laughed and said, "Don't bewitch the people here, even if he doesn't rebel, our alliance can resist the expeditionary force." ”

"Well, I really admire your self-confidence. Since you want to unify the West, I definitely expect that there will be a day when our Holy Religion will penetrate your various countries long ago. At this time, the Blazing Flame Nation took the lead in exerting pressure, and then came back to the outside. I think the contract for each of your countries to become vassals of the Ghuray Empire should have been signed a long time ago. Venus said triumphantly.

The crowd was furious.

"As long as the Holy Sect is destroyed, the rest can be solved slowly. As soon as the old man's words fell, he waved his right hand and flew forward with a fiery red.

When the nine people thought of this, their hearts were relieved.

"The tiger dragon will be handed over to you, President. The middle-aged man in ice blue armor took out a broad-bladed giant sword from the ring, glowing with blue light, and rushed towards Bouvet Donas.

The Great War is on the verge of breaking out.

......
