Chapter Twenty-Four: Shock

Estimating that the time was almost up, Shi Lan withdrew from the virtual space.

After cleaning up and getting dressed, Shi Lan grabbed a piece of medicinal herb on the desk that looked like a tree vine and took a bite.

Feeling the bitter taste in his mouth, Shi Lan couldn't help frowning, the taste of the medicinal herbs was strange, and the previous blood ginseng was already top-notch in terms of taste.

The medicinal herbs she eats these days are either bitter to death, or astringent people are numb.

These medicinal materials can be refined into pills in order to exert their maximum medicinal properties, but alchemists are too rare, at least there are no ones in Tenglong City.

Moreover, most alchemists are not interested in refining low-level pills for cultivation in the Quenching Body Realm, and most of the pills circulating on the market are for the cultivation of martial artists above the Innate Realm.

The quenching realm is mainly to temper the body, mainly relying on the flesh and blood of birds and beasts with some medicinal materials to tonic, which is the so-called medicinal diet.

Shi Lan sat down cross-legged, picked up the forging jade decision, and began to digest the medicinal power.

Two days ago, Shi Lan was already at the peak of the first level of the Quenching Body Realm, and her strength growth seemed to have reached a bottleneck, she knew that this was the barrier of the Double Quenching Body Realm, and if she wanted to break through, she could only continue to strengthen her physical body.

The speed of the airflow in the body was getting slower and slower, and Shi Lan's muscles, bones, and flesh were also increasing bit by bit, and suddenly, as if the clouds were clearing, the double diaphragm of the quenching body realm instantly shattered.

The speed of the airflow suddenly climbed several notches, and Shi Lan also felt that his strength increased instantly.

The swelling power in her body made her unable to continue refining the medicinal power, and she got up and played the Vajra God Fist.

There was a faint wind between Shi Lan's fists and feet, which was like a world of difference from the first time he was fighting.

After a set of boxing techniques, Shi Lan broke out a thin layer of sweat, a little panting, and the remaining medicinal power was also integrated into every corner of her body in the process.

Wiping the sweat from her forehead, Shi Lan walked into the bathroom in a happy mood.

……

Tenglong City is six hundred miles to the west, is Jiuxiao City, compared to Tenglong City, Jiuxiao City is closer to the border of the human race, less than 10,000 miles away from the boundless demon domain, and it only takes less than half a month for the innate realm martial artists to go back and forth.

A group of troops dressed in black armor and sitting on horses slowly entered the Nine Heavens City.

Jiaoma contains a trace of dragon blood, and its feet are extremely fast, coming and going like the wind, which is not slower than the ordinary innate realm martial arts.

Most of these sergeants' cold armor was stained with blood, and the blood stains had long since dried up, condensing into dark brown blood scabs, which stuck to the armor.

The blood scabs on some of the sergeants' armor have turned black, making it difficult to tell whether it is armor or blood stains.

The whole team was less than 500 people, and the army was silent, and a large banner with gold characters on a black background was erected in the center of the team, with two big characters written on it: 'Suppressing Demons'.

Looking at the lively pedestrians along the way, when they saw the word 'town demon', they all felt an incomparably huge power, which made people feel awe-inspiring.

The banner was neat and clean, in stark contrast to the blood-stained sergeants.

After this team entered Jiuxiao City, they went straight to the City Lord's Mansion.

The city lord of Nine Heavens City was already standing at the door to greet him.

The army lined up in the City Lord's Mansion, and the leading general turned over and dismounted, walked in front of the City Lord, and ordered in a stiff tone: "Gather all the martial artists above the Innate Realm in the city, and come to the City Lord's Mansion quickly!" ”

The city lord smiled bitterly, "My lord, my status in Jiuxiao City is not high, I'm afraid that many martial artists will not listen to orders." "Although he is the nominal city lord, in this Nine Heavens City, he still has to rely on the breath of those big families to survive.

"This is the decree of the imperial court, those who do not listen to the proclamation will be killed!" As the general's words fell, an incomparably terrifying killing aura overflowed.

Hearing a name that he had not heard for a long time, the city lord's chest was full of blood, and he replied loudly: "Obey the edict of the imperial court!" ”

The City Lord's Mansion soon issued an order to summon, and the ordinary people did not react when they heard the word Imperial Court, only a few elders who were over the age of ten had a faint shock in their eyes.

Several big families in the city did not hesitate at all, and counted the martial artists above the innate realm in their clan, and gathered to the city lord's mansion.

Looking at the large number of warriors in the square, the general breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yunshan Gorge has been lost."

The first sentence of the general's mouth set off a huge storm.

"How is that possible?"

"Yunshan Gorge is an important checkpoint on the border of my human race! There are 700,000 demon troops stationed all year round! There is even a heavenly and human realm with great power! How can it be lost?! ”

"Yes, that's impossible!"

There was a lot of discussion in the audience, and it was noisy.

A middle-aged man about forty years old, with a white face and beard, squinted his eyes slightly, and there was no surprise in his expression.

There was a beautiful woman standing next to the man, and when she saw the man's face with such a look, she couldn't help but ask in a surprised whisper, "Dad, did you already know?" ”

The man shook his head slightly, and said softly, "I'll talk to you again when I go back." ”

"Silence!" The general standing at the forefront suddenly burst into a loud shout, and he actually suppressed the noisy sound in the field, and the part of the innate martial artists who cultivated to a slightly lower level even felt that the qi and blood in his body were surging, and he almost wanted to gag.

When they came back to their senses, everyone looked at the generals at the front, and their eyes were full of horror.

"A demon emperor tore up the contract and launched an attack on Yunshan Gorge, the 700,000 demon army was lost, and the blood of the six heavenly and human realm powers was spilled on the frontier." The general recounted the facts that had happened not long ago in a flat tone.

There was a suppressed gasping sound in the field, and the word Demon Emperor had too much impact on everyone.

Some of them even looked panicked, and slowly leaned towards the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, already thinking about escaping from this place.

"Don't panic, the Imperial Court ordered you to come here urgently, just to resist the invasion of demon beasts." Looking at the reactions of everyone in the field, a trace of disappointment appeared in the general's eyes.

"Don't laugh, my lord." An old man in his sixties couldn't help but speak: "How does the Demon Emperor exist? Even if we tie up all of us in the room, I'm afraid it won't be enough to slap it in the face! ”

"Naturally, I won't let you deal with the Demon Emperor, Yunshan Gorge is now lost, and a large number of demon beasts of unknown rank are pouring into the Chengtian Domain, if these demon beasts are not stopped, the hundreds of millions of Li people in the Chengtian Domain will definitely be ruined!"

The general took a deep breath and bowed slightly, "I hope you can assist the Demon Suppression Army and stop the beast tide." ”

There were few responders in the field, and the generals' eyes were cold, and they toasted without eating and drinking! Just as the general was about to attack, a gentle voice slowly sounded, "I, the Lu family, am willing to do my part for the hundreds of millions of people in the Chengtian Domain." ”

The general looked at the man who spoke, his eyes were suddenly happy, and he said, "Dare to ask Your Excellency?" ”

"The contemporary head of the Lu family, Lu Changfeng."
