Chapter 427: Rebellion is not child's play, and there is no mercy in war
The strength of the old tree demon Linghuai and Xiao Qiang, the commander of the guards of the Central Royal Court Royal City, is not much different from each other, and they can be regarded as equal in battle.
However, those Tree Realm Mountain monsters are not a little worse than the guards of the Royal City.
The world is unfair and cruel.
The demon clan (not referring to the innate demon clan during the flood period, but the acquired demon clan cultivated by spiritual creatures), in this world, life is as miserable as that raised by a stepmother.
Compared with the human race, the innate cultivation of the demon race is more difficult, unlike humans, as long as the cultivation is reached, it can attract the heavenly tribulation, and it can become an immortal after passing the nine layers of heavenly thunder. If the demon clan wants to become an immortal, it must go through three calamities, nine tribulations and eighteen tribulations. Each calamity is gradual, step by step. Fight with the sky! Fight with people! Fight with the same kind! Fight with fate! The demon clan that can survive to the end has to go through nine hundred and eighty-one heavenly thunders before the demon body can fade!
Most youkai didn't survive that time and fell. And some monsters with special luck were able to worship under the human sect and practice the orthodox cultivation method when they were not psychic at the beginning, so that they could avoid the catastrophe. And this is also the reason why there are so many demon mounts and slaves in the Buddha and Dao sects.
The human race, after experiencing several catastrophes of heaven and earth in ancient times, quickly seized the dominance of the earth after the lich retired and the immortal Buddha returned to heaven and the gods. The leader of the Three Qing Sects, the Jedi Tiantong, and the human race have successfully obtained the luck of heaven and earth and become the absolute protagonist of the world.
As the darling of the Heavenly Dao, the human beings with the aura of the protagonist are naturally extremely talented in cultivation. As long as there is a spiritual root, even a human with a small spiritual root as a hair will be much faster than the demon clan in terms of cultivation, and there is no need to worry about the trial of the Heavenly Tribulation.
This law is also applicable in the world of colored clouds.
The monsters of the Tree Boundary Mountain, the cultivation level is uneven, the highest is the late Jindan period of the old tree demon, and the lowest is the monster that has not yet stepped into the foundation and cannot be called a monster, but the most are ordinary monsters who have just refined the horizontal bones, but have not yet cultivated their human bodies.
The combat power of these monsters is indeed there, but it is also limited, and compared with the royal city guards who can be called masters even in the human world, the results are self-evident.
Moreover, the monsters are still distracted to take care of the little monsters that have not yet become demons, so naturally they will not be able to take the strength to fight against the guards of the royal city.
It's a massacre!
After completely tearing off their faces, the Kings Guards revealed their hideous true colors. Thousands of royal city guards lined up and scattered to encircle and suppress these poor monsters. And the monsters don't know how to cooperate, and they can't arrange these difficult formations, so they can only rely on instinct.
Once the war machine is activated, it is not only about victory that it will devour! The flowers of victory usually grow on the mountain of bloody corpses!
The sound of fighting sounded in Ke Wang's ears, and he crouched down with his head in pain. The strong smell of blood, the obscure sound of the sword entering the flesh, the terrible screams of the youkai before they died...... All of this is very similar to the war that Ke Wang experienced when he was in the human realm. But this time, the people who were slaughtered were his subjects.
"King, save us, King!"
It was his subjects crying out to him for help.
"I can't do it! I really can't do it!"
Ke Wang held his head and plugged his ears, trying to avoid the cries for help.
"Why don't you save us, King, what are you doing?"
Noisy cries for help poured towards Ke Wang like a tide. His mind went blank, crouching on the bloody battlefield, just watching stupidly.
"I......'m sorry! I...... I am not worthy to be your king!"
The skills of the old tree demon and Xiao Qiang were originally between the two of them, but in order to protect Ke Wang, he had already been attacked by a lot of Xiao Qiang and his men, and slowly fell behind. Seeing that the whole army was about to be annihilated, the old dryad relentlessly, and suddenly used the secret method to explode a burst of demonic energy, repelling the people who were besieging him, and then rushed to Ke Wang's side, picked up his body, and threw him far out of the battle group.
"King, go quickly, go south, go south, go south to the clouds, go to the high priest, and she will tell you what to do next!"
Ke Wang was in a daze, and subconsciously obeyed the old dryad's orders, and ran towards the south for his life.
If Xiao Qiang didn't know the importance of Ke Wang at this time, then he, the commander of the guards of the Central Royal Court and the Royal City, would have been in vain! But when Xiao Qiang was about to pursue, the old tree demon stood in front of him.
"If you want to chase and kill, then step on my corpse first!"
"Old fellow, look for death!" Xiao Qiang was furious, and used Xuan Gong to attack the old tree demon.
At this time, the old dryad had already appeared in its true body and turned into a tall locust tree, blocking Xiao Qiang's attack. The branches and leaves on his body continued to extend, wrapping around the soldiers of the Royal City Guard who were attacking the monsters of the Tree Realm Mountain, and rescuing the monsters who were struggling to support them.
"You also go! The king needs your strength! You can't die here!
"Grandpa Tree!"
"Ancestor!"
"Brother Huai!"
......
The demons cried and cried, unwilling to leave.
The old dryad wanted to say something, but his body trembled, and the leaves fell one after another.
Xiao Qiang is not a vegetarian, and after his palm is transported Xuangong, I am afraid that he will not have the strength of ten thousand catties to open mountains and crack stones. He slapped the branches and leaves that hindered his steps, and in a few moments he cleared a passageway.
Seeing that Xiao Qiang was about to get out of trouble, the old tree demon struggled to fall to the ground, using his last spiritual power to turn into a barrier and block Xiao Qiang.
"Hurry up, do you want to make my sacrifice in vain? If you don't go, we'll all die here!"
The demons turned around with tears in their eyes and fled in all directions, and they didn't know how much they could escape.
"How much can you escape!" the old dryad closed his eyes.
He could feel his life force draining away, and his life was coming to an end. Originally, he didn't deserve to die. But for his king's sake he died. I don't know from which generation the allegiance was handed down, maybe it was the grandfather of his grandfather's grandfather...... Time is too long, and the old dryad doesn't know why Shujie Mountain chose to be loyal to the Southern King back then. However, since you have promised that you will be loyal for generations, you must keep your promise. In many cases, youkai are more loyal than humans.
After the death of the old dryad, the Kings Guards broke free from their shackles and gathered around their Great Commander.
Xiao Qiang looked at the corpse of the old dryad that had lost all its vitality, and his face was blue, without the joy of victory. It can be seen that he is in a very bad mood.
