Chapter 146: If You Want to Die, Go Die
The ferocity of the battle exceeded all expectations.
It was only the first encounter, and it lasted two days and two nights.
The mountains around the Shenxu Canyon were stained with blood, and even the source river that flowed through it lasted for a long time.
Chongmian and Tiansha's faces were extremely gloomy, and they wanted to make a move several times, but they were stopped by Yun Liantian.
Because the latter knows very well that war is cruel, and the competition is also about who can be cruel and who is more iron-blooded.
As the saying goes, mercy is not in charge of soldiers, maybe that's what it says.
In the past two days, Yun Liantian has gradually gained insight into the intentions of the demons, they just want to use the advantage of the number of low-level demons to consume the living force of the human army.
Although the combat power of the low-level demons is limited, two or three or four people can still replace a human soldier, such a consumption may not be anything to the demons, but for humans, it is a catastrophic attrition.
In the first battle alone, more than 100,000 casualties were ......
Looking at the demon clan that was constantly advancing slowly, and because it had occupied the exit of the passage, the support was getting more and more abundant, Yun Liantian finally made an extremely difficult decision after several tosses and turns.
He decided to suggest that Yu Zhen withdraw his troops and temporarily avoid head-on attrition with these low-level demons.
He originally thought that it might take a lot of effort to persuade Yu Zhen, but he didn't expect that before he could speak, Yu Zhen said the same idea as him.
The two hit it off, one was the emperor, the other was the new lord of the clouds, and the two reached an agreement very tacitly.
The Great Cloud Army temporarily abandoned its hold on to the mountain range where the Shenxu Canyon was located and withdrew for hundreds of miles......
The demons really did not continue the pursuit, but stationed themselves in the mountains around the Shenxu Canyon. For them, the first battle was a complete victory, achieving their goal of capturing the exit of the canyon.
Next, they will use this place as a base, wait for the arrival of the supporting demon army, and then slowly advance towards the territory of the human world
......
Half a month later
Skyfalls
The high priest stood next to the stone, dancing lightly in a white skirt, with fluttering black hair, looking full of fairy spirits.
In front of him was the surging waterfall that hung diagonally for nine days.
Suddenly, a little starlight flashed in the waterfall, and although the starlight was extremely faint, it seemed extremely clear.
The flickering blue is particularly conspicuous in the white waves.
"Wow~~~~"
A dull dragon roar sounded, intertwined with the roar of the falling waterfall, and the entire valley seemed to shake violently.
Immediately after, a behemoth rushed out of the waterfall, and from that pair of huge eyes, two cold rays like lightning shot out.
However, the waterfall is a waterfall after all, and it has the power that even the demon god can seal, not to mention that this is the bottom of the waterfall, and the impact of the water flow is not much stronger than the place where the demon clan is sealed.
The figure of the star dragon collapsed, and the starlight drifted in the air.
Immediately after, a figure suddenly rushed out from near the Heavenly Waterfall, and the starlight in the sky instantly converged towards its body, and then disappeared into it.
Lin Xiu!!
At this time, Lin Xiu was naked, and although he did not have the muscles as strong as a dragon, he had a streamlined beauty. And his previously slightly fair skin was now bronzed, and the surface of his skin shimmered with a faint sheen.
There was a faint smile on the corner of Lin Xiu's mouth, which added an indescribable charm to his whole person.
"High Priest, I am only an arm's length away from the Heavenly Waterfall today, and it is estimated that in another year and a half, I will be able to truly touch the Heavenly Waterfall."
These days of getting along, Lin Xiu seems to have become acquainted with the high priest, and his tone of voice has become extremely casual, no longer trembling as he was before, and he doesn't even dare to take a breath.
The high priest also had some subtle changes, although the light veil covered her face, and she couldn't see the smile at the corner of her mouth, but the faint smile in the corner of her eyes had clearly explained her mood at this time
"It's less smelly and beautiful, the demon god has been sealed for thousands of years and can't get out of the seal of the Heavenly Waterfall, even if you dare to say that it has been a year and a half? Do you think the distance of this arm is easy to break through? I tell you, sometimes even if it is a foot, it may be the end of the world."
Lin Xiu smiled and said, "This is what people often say is the end of the world."
The High Priest nodded lightly and said, "Yes, that's the truth. There is a world of difference between the outside of the waterfall and the waterfall, you...... It's still far from it."
Lin Xiu smiled: "Then what level can my current physical body reach?"
The High Priest chuckled and said, "You have cultivated the strength of the physical body for less than four months, what level do you want to reach?"
Lin Xiu was slightly stunned, and then muttered, "It's been almost four months......
The high priest continued, "Why, you are tortured and addicted, and you mean that time flies too quickly?"
Lin Xiu was taken aback, as if something sounded, and hurriedly asked, "Is the seal of the Divine Ruins Canyon still there?" Didn't you say before that it might disappear at any time?"
Hearing this, the smile in the high priest's eyes gradually disappeared, and after a while, he said in a solemn tone: "Half a month ago...... The seal is gone. "
"What?" Lin Xiu was taken aback, and then said, "Then how is the battle situation now?, does Da Yun's army have the passage to hold the canyon?"
The High Priest fell silent.
Lin Xiu's face also gradually became gloomy.
After half a ring, the high priest muttered, "After the Great Cloud army held out for two days and two nights, it fully retreated, and now the mountains around the Shenxu Canyon have been completely occupied by the demons. ”
Lin Xiu's mouth opened slightly, shocked.
In any case, he did not expect that the Dayun army would only hold out for two days and two nights after making arrangements in advance......
The High Priest said softly: "The situation may be a little different from what you think, the retreat of the Great Cloud Army is only strategic, and Yu Zhen and Yun Liantian want to avoid the consumption of low-level demons." You must know that the numerical advantage of the demons is extremely huge. ”
Lin Xiu's heart sank to the bottom, although the high priest used a relatively gentle-sounding word like strategic retreat, but Lin Xiu had already understood the seriousness of the situation.
You know, even low-level demons can't be consumed, let alone mid-level and high-level demons. You must know that there are as many as possible, and the numerical advantage will not only be reflected in the low-level demons.
Lin Xiu's face was gloomy, and the high priest seemed to suddenly hear something, and she said softly, "You are ...... now." It's best to go to the Star Moon Hall right away."
Hearing this, Lin Xiu's face was shocked, and he said in a deep voice: "Could it be that Xinghai is also ......?"
The High Priest shook his head slowly and said, "There hasn't been any movement in the Star Sea for the time being......
Lin Xiu's eyes froze slightly, and he said puzzledly: "Since there is no change in the sea of stars, then why am I ......?"
The high priest raised his hand to interrupt Lin Xiu's words, and said, "Don't ask so much, you go back...... I advise you to speed up...... Otherwise......"
Lin Xiu was stunned again, and then he no longer had the slightest hesitation, turned around and disappeared into the air behind him.
However, after about three breaths, Lin Xiu's figure reappeared...... Grabbing the clothes from the rocks by the river, he disappeared into thin air again.
The High Priest narrowed his eyes slightly, and muttered:
"It's not that I don't make a move, it's the current situation...... You need to bring out the demonic nature in you......"
......
......
Lin Xiu ran wildly all the way, barely having a moment to rest, the urgency in the high priest's words made him anxious, he always had a bad premonition, Moon Shadow Xuan...... Something could have happened.
But at the same time, he was also a little puzzled, the Star Moon Hall should have Seventh Uncle, Wei Jinglong and others in charge, if something else could happen like this, what would be the use of him Lin Xiu's going?
But after thinking about it, he still rushed back as fast as he could, and it only took a few days before and after to reach the periphery of the Star-Moon Forest.
He quickly noticed that the Star-Moon Forest was different from the past.
Nowadays, there are a lot of people here, and judging by their clothes, they should be people from all sides of the rivers and lakes.
Regarding this, Lin Xiu can also understand, after all, it was the Seventh Uncle who told Yue Yingxuan to gather all the scattered forces in the rivers and lakes, and he thought that these were those people.
Lin Xiu didn't alarm these people, but quietly continued to go deeper.
He found that the closer he got to the location of the Star and Moon Temple, the more heavily guarded they became.
This puzzled him. It stands to reason that the power of these guards should be placed on the side of the sea of stars, after all, the sealed place in the sea of stars is the possible breakthrough of the demon race.
There was another extremely abnormal thing that alerted him, and that was that among these tight guards, he didn't see the power of the Star Moon Palace.
Lin Xiu frowned, and at this moment, a sound of conversation drifted into his ears
"Do you think that girl will compromise tonight?"
"It's hard to say, people are the masters of a holy land, and they still have the hardness in their bones, how can they bow their heads easily?"
"Cut, what's hard, the Holy Land is not as good as usual now...... The battle with Dayun had already consumed a lot of strength at the beginning, and now the only remaining strong people have gone to the southwest to assist the Dayun army in resisting the demons...... For the rest, there are few that can become the climate."
"That being said, but people are fighting on the front line for the survival of the entire human race, but those people are forcing the palace to seize power in the back, and I always feel that it is a little too unsophisticated"
"What do you know, what is not particular about it these days, it is true that power is in your own hands. Even if you fight against the demons, you must have enough right to speak, so that you can command others to charge and die, otherwise if you are controlled by others, you will only be cannon fodder."
"But...... If this matter is known to those powerhouses who listen to the heavens...... In a fit of rage, you can't destroy us all?"
"You're just short-sighted and can't see through anything...... Do you think, as long as you don't kill people, how can those people who talk about the righteousness of the rivers and lakes and the survival of the world all day long kill their own people in such a crisis because of this kind of thing? Hmph, can they still expect to use our strength to fight against the demons?"
"I still think it's a bit unreasonable, I ......"
"Okay, you can't say it or not, let me tell you, yesterday the sect master of the Immortal Sword Sect, Situ Tianfu, had already seriously injured that girl and that Supreme Elder, and now, this Star Moon Hall has no strength to compete with it...... It's a matter of time before you relinquish power, and I promise you, ...... today."
The voice stopped abruptly, and the person who spoke suddenly felt a chill in the field.
The chill seemed to penetrate people's flesh and blood, and reach people's souls.
There's one more person in the field!
It was Lin Xiu with a frosty face!
At this moment, he was really angry, never so angry as he was now.
Hearing these words, especially after hearing that Moon Shadow Xuan and Meng Chen were seriously injured, deep in his heart, there was an uncontrollable fury slowly raising his head.
"You..... Who are you?"
Seeing that Lin Xiu was only a young man in his early twenties, despite feeling the bone-chilling coldness emanating from his body, the man who had just threatened to guarantee something asked stubbornly.
Lin Xiu's body was trembling slightly, it was a kind of anger that was not controlled at all...... He forcibly suppressed the anger that was about to burst out, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Where is Situ Tianfu?"
The other party was intimidated by Lin Xiu's momentum, and involuntarily took a step back, and suddenly woke up after a while, gritted his teeth and drank: "Bold, what are you, the name of the master of the Immortal Sword Sect is also what you can call directly, I think you are simply looking for ...... Uh......"
The other party's dead word did not speak, but suddenly let out a strange muffled snort......
The next moment
A bright starlight suddenly erupted from his body...... It's just that the starlight is like fire, constantly rising violently.
The other party slowly softened in the sparks, and it only took a breath or two before and after, and then it was blown by the wind, and the sky was full of ......
The other was completely stunned!
He opened his eyes and said tremblingly, "You...... You...... You ......"
Lin Xiu squeezed out three words from between his teeth: "Where are the people?"
This time, the other person hurriedly shouted, "Star Moon Temple, Star Moon Temple...... They were all in the Star Moon Temple, and tonight the master of the Divine Sword Gate, Situ Tian...... Huh?"
As he spoke, he suddenly felt a flower in front of him, and when he looked carefully, he had lost Lin Xiu's figure.
He sat down on the ground, gasping for air, his eyes filled with undetermined fear.
After half a ring, his eyebrows suddenly raised, and then as if he had thought of something, his eyes widened, and he said in a daze:
Lin Xiu...... He is Lin Xiu......"
......
......
In the Temple of the Star and Moon
Moon Shadow Xuan was still sitting on the throne above the main hall, Meng Chen was sitting beside her, and the two of them were surrounded by the guards of the Star Moon Palace.
It's just that these guards are nervous one by one, and everyone's hands are on the handle of the sword, ready to attack.
Below the main hall, there are several times the number of people in the Star and Moon Palace, and judging from the clothes of these people, they belong to many sects.
But there is one sect that occupies more than half of the majority, and that is ...... Fairy Sword Gate.
The first person was white, with a fairy wind and bones, and a kind smile on his face, if he didn't know, he would definitely be regarded as a kind old fairy...... And this person is the master of the Immortal Sword Gate, Situ Tianfu.
"Moon Hall Lord, how did you think about the old man's proposal yesterday, you must know that the current enemy, every quarter of an hour wasted is fueling the enemy's arrogance."
Moon Shadow Xuan's face was full of frost, and she said in a cold voice: "There's nothing to think about, I've already said it, it's absolutely impossible for a person like you to become the commander of the Jianghu Alliance here!"
Situ Tiannu smiled slightly, and said lightly: "Moon Hall Lord, such a choice is not wise at all...... Yesterday, the old man missed and hurt you, and I was already extremely guilty in my heart, today I never want to repeat the mistakes of yesterday, Lord of the Moon Palace, you must not force me."
Moon Shadow Xuan didn't speak, but Meng Chen shouted angrily: "What if you force you, you villain who takes advantage of people's danger and doesn't know what to do, you will kill me if you can continue to survive in the world."
Situ Tiannu still didn't have the slightest anger on his face, and said with a smile: "Don't scare me..... The old man is not frightened...... I won't kill you because I'm afraid of your Star Moon Palace, but because the old man is too kind-hearted to hurt you...... You know, I regret yesterday's events to death....."
Situ Tianfu's words fell, and a flash of playful light flashed in his eyes
But the next moment, this drama suddenly froze
A cold, emotionless voice suddenly sounded in the middle of the field, and the sound seemed to come from the Nine Hells, which made people shudder
"If you want to die, then you will die"
......
......
