Chapter 895: Internal and External Difficulties
The stargazing platform is a high-rise building built on the city wall, several times higher than the ordinary city tower, the most special thing is that it is completely caused by the talisman, without using a brick and a tile, among which the copper talisman and the jade talisman occupy one percent, the skeleton of the high platform is formed, the paper talisman and the bamboo talisman occupy ninety, one by one the ground is piled up, the side with the talisman is written outward, the light emitted comes and goes, it is one of the most eye-catching buildings in the whole imperial capital.
There are no stairs in the stargazing platform, you can only rely on flying to the highest floor, there are no so-called doors and windows on this floor, the umbrella-like roof composed of talismans floats in the air, going up and down again and again, the distance from the high platform is changing all the time, and the floor under your feet is naturally all talismans, and the three copper talismans are the most stable foothold.
The master of the talisman guarding the platform was already unconscious, and he fell on the real city wall without the support of the spell, smashing a lot of talismans, but fortunately, the main body was still there, Xin Youtao immediately sacrificed the talisman, repaired the stargazing platform a little, and then prepared to fight.
The eleven boulders were only four or five miles away from the imperial capital, and the speed was still accelerating, and the surface glowed red, as if it was about to burn.
In terms of mana alone, Xin Youtao and Xiao Qingtao are not much worse than the demon seeds, plus the cooperation of a large number of rune masters and monks, they will only be stronger, but the spell is boundless, once they enter a completely different field, no matter how strong the mana is, it will lose its usefulness, just like a beast on the ground, no matter how sharp the claws are, no matter how strong the limbs are, once it is thrown into the air, even a small bird can't fight.
In the face of the illusion of the demon seed, the human and the demon race are like fighting blindfolded, and before they can see the trace of the enemy, they have been quietly attacked.
Xin Youtao was holding back a lot of energy in his heart, and he was ready to vent on these eleven boulders, they looked very strong, condensed a lot of demonic power, but after all, they were visible, and he was finally able to open his eyes and fight.
"Wait for them to get closer!" Xin Youtao said loudly, without the slightest panic in his heart, "wait for the moment when they split." ”
Xiao Qingtao did not enter the stargazing platform. Instead, it stayed outside, and a large number of magic weapons were lined up in the air, like a huge spear head, pointing in the direction of the incoming boulder.
"I'm ready. Her heart swelled with the same fighting enthusiasm, and this was the tactic that the Longbin Society had developed when the relationship with the Monk Order was harmonious, and she and Xin Youtao were of the same mind: the stargazing platform cast spells, and the monks' divine array amplified spells.
The boulder is clearly visible, with a diameter of fifty or sixty zhang, and the fire on the surface is getting stronger and stronger, and it is about to burst.
Xin Youtao sacrificial talisman, the entire stargazing platform is radiant. The small green peach and many magic weapons in front of him were all shrouded in it, and after a while, the whole ball of light left the stargazing platform and shot out, and after ten zhang, it began to split, four times in a row, splitting into sixteen groups of white light, facing eleven boulders at a very fast speed.
The spell is not over and has entered a more critical phase. Xin Youtao had to control all the light balls accurately, which could not only destroy the target, but also not waste spells. From this time on, Xiao Qingtao took on the responsibility of defense, so as not to launch a sneak attack with a demon that slipped through the net. This kind of thing happens almost every time.
Xin Youtao's timing was extremely appropriate, the boulder was just bursting to unleash a large amount of demonic magic inside, and this was when its defense was at its weakest. Eleven balls of light hit the target accurately, causing an earth-shattering sound, and the boulder turned into powder. The hexery inside was wiped out in the blink of an eye, and a small amount escaped, being swallowed up by five other balls of light.
"Which demon clan is this, the strength is very strong. Xin Youtao was afraid in his heart, if he and Xiao Qingtao hadn't avoided the control of the demon seed, the imperial capital at this time had become a sea of fire.
The demon clan that attacked the imperial capital was obviously prepared, and it should cooperate with the demon seed inside and outside.
Xiao Qingtao had been observing with the magic weapon, and then replied coldly: "It's our acquaintance." ”
"Acquaintance?" Xin Youtao couldn't think of any demon who could afford this kind of title for a while, and when he saw Xiao Qingtao's slightly stiff shoulders, he suddenly understood, "Pei Zihan, he's not dead yet...... I mean ......"
"It seems that he is not dead, I haven't heard from him for a long time. Xiao Qingtao suddenly flew forward, and said without looking back: "You stay, and you will sacrifice the talisman when you have the opportunity." ”
"The demon clan must have been controlled by the demon seed......" Xin Youtao watched Xiao Qingtao fly away, unable to stop him, he had to stay on the stargazing platform, this was the most powerful weapon of the Longbin Society, without its assistance, he couldn't help Xiao Qingtao.
A group of demon clans, about more than a hundred, flew out of the clouds in the distance, almost all of them were tall and fierce beast demons, except for one exception, the figure was no different from ordinary humans, but the appearance was even more hideous and terrifying: his head had no flesh and beard on the outside, it was a skeleton, and the tongue, eyes, etc. were still there, and from some angles you could even see the ravines and criss-crossed brain objects.
Five or six miles apart, the group of demons and Xiao Qingtao stopped at the same time, and three miles behind her was the stargazing platform, and under her feet were a large number of demon stone fragments.
She couldn't recognize her only relative, so she could only guess that this was Pei Zihan based on the other party's status among the beast demons.
The demon clan was the first to join the battle in Wangshan, and the losses were extremely heavy, which made the surviving demon clan complain a lot, Pei Zihan was one of the survivors, occupying nearly half of the demon land, including Wangshan, and no human beings were allowed to enter, and slowly the practice became more and more extreme, since ten years ago, non-demons have also been ostracized, and half-demons must go through extremely strict tests before they are allowed to enter.
The Land of the Demons is now the Land of the Beasts.
The beast demon forces have never had anything to do with the Holy Fu Dynasty, Xiao Qingtao had written a greeting letter in the early years, but never got a reply, but the two sides have always been at peace with each other, and reached a tacit understanding, a large area in the middle is barren, and no one is allowed to enter.
Suddenly, Pei Zihan personally led a group of beast demons to kill the imperial capital.
The land of the demons is thousands of miles away from the imperial capital, and unless there is a demon seed to help, it is impossible for these beasts and demons to go undiscovered along the way.
Pei Zihan flew alone, and stopped again when he was dozens of steps away from Xiao Qingtao, "You still recognize me." ”
Xiao Qingtao nodded, Pei Zihan's voice did not change, but he seemed ruthless.
"You ought to ...... unconscious. ”
"Is the word of the demon seed worth believing?"
"More credible than humans and Taoists. Pei Zihan glanced at the stargazing platform and the city, "Are you two left?"
"Will the demon seed only open up to the two of us?"
Pei Zihan let out a sneer, and there was no change on the skeleton's face, "It's okay to have as many people as you want, since we are here, we have to have a big battle." ”
"Have you forgotten all about the Battle of Wangshan? The Demon Seed is controlling you, Pei Zihan, have you won the Battle of Wangshan, but will you lose to the Demon Seed after more than ten years?"
"What is victory, what is defeat, if victory is to be won in exchange for death and decline. What is the significance of it? The Battle of Wangshan is a victory for the human race, you have recaptured a qiē, and you are still expanding outward, but the demon clan has only gained death. ”
"Mu Xingqiu is in the city, give him a little time, he can defeat the demon seed, and then you can make a choice." Xiao Qingtao knew that the demon thoughts could not be eliminated by a few words of persuasion, so she had to find another way, "Since you don't want to see the demon clan die, then why rush to attack? After Mu Xingqiu and the demon seed win or lose, you will decide your own position. ”
Pei Zihan stared at Xiao Qingtao tightly, because he had no eyelids, his eyeballs appeared large and protruding, and he looked very terrifying, "The demon seed lasts forever, and Mu Xingqiu is just a mortal, how can he defeat the demon seed?"
"After the demon seed wins, Xin Youtao and I will also be recruited. The entire Imperial Capital fell into a coma, this is the scene that the demon seed once promised you, right? When you launch an attack, the loss will be smaller. There is not even a loss. Xiao Qingtao forced herself to meet those terrifying eyes, "Is it necessary to start a war with us now?, even if there are only two of us, we won't be restrained, those beasts behind you." What do you think can be sacrificed?"
Pei Zihan was silent for a while, the fate of the demon clan was his demon thoughts, and the demon seed could only be fueled by the situation. It can't be changed, he cares about the lives of the beast demons, especially these beast demons are his cronies, "Noon, I only wait until noon." ”
"Good. "There is only less than an hour before noon, and Xiao Qingtao did not ask for more time, "Victory will produce confidence and dignity, so that the survivors will be motivated to fight, and they will never be slaves, this is the meaning of victory, and no amount of death can be erased." ”
Xiao Qingtao and Pei Zihan turned around at the same time and flew away with their backs.
Xin Youtao heard the conversation between the two, and nodded approvingly at Xiao Qingtao, "Is Pei Zihan credible?"
"As long as he is not a complete puppet of the demon seed, as long as he still has a little self-esteem of the demon clan in his heart, he will wait until noon. ”
"Where is the Virgin Mary? She is very eccentric, but she is more reasonable. ”
"You stay at the stargazing platform, and I'll go see what Mu Xingqiu's fighting methods are. "Xiao Qingtao doesn't know the whereabouts of the Holy Mother of Ten Thousand Sons, and she doesn't even know whether the Banshee King is dead or alive.
Xin Youtao prefers to stay with Xiao Qingtao, but the stargazing platform is an important place in the imperial capital, and someone must stay behind, "Okay...... If you don't find Mu Xingqiu, or if he has a defeated appearance, you must come back right away—I need you. ”
Xiao Qingtao smiled and flew towards the city, leaving all the magic weapons in the air in front of the stargazing platform.
Xin Youtao looked at the beast demons in the distance, they were scattering their positions, as if they were forming some kind of demon formation, "Can't you kill all the demon clans?" He suddenly moved in his heart, and found that this thought was suspected of being demonic, so he hurriedly stabilized his mind, got rid of his cranky thoughts, and looked around while watching out for the beast demons, if there were really "secret protectors", he hoped that these people could give a little hint.
Xiao Qingtao walked into the tavern and saw the unconscious person on the ground, the gold pot on the table, and a strange old man with a dignified appearance.
The old man sat alone, facing the corner of the table, and the other stools around the table were empty.
"Your Excellency......" Xiao Qingtao suddenly noticed that something was wrong, the table was not ordinary, and there were strong signs of spells in a small area above it.
She bypassed the talisman master lying on the ground, stood on the edge of the table and looked down, casting three spells in succession to strengthen her heavenly eyes, and she finally saw the scene in the area, it was indeed not nothing, and there were clouds of black smoke floating one after another.
"He wants to use the power of the Demon Tribulation to temporarily reach the realm of serving the sun. The old man spoke, but his eyes did not turn to Xiao Qingtao, "But he forgot one thing, strength is the wealth of the strong, there is no ownerless wealth in the world, and there is no ownerless power, he borrowed too much, just afraid that it will anger the original owner." ”
Xiao Qingtao didn't understand a word.
