There are thirteen states in the Tianwu Realm, among which Qingzhou is the most chaotic.

The war between the human race and the demon race has been raging for hundreds of years, and it has not stopped until today.

In the southeast of Qingzhou, a place called the Valley of the Buried Gods.

Above the canyon, there is a perennial dense fog and water vapor, but over the years, the fog has turned dark red.

Some people say that this is because there is a 'god' at the bottom of the valley, and the blood of the god is steaming, which aggravates the intensity of the aura within a radius of 100 miles from the Valley of the Buried God.

I don't know when, the Valley of the Buried Gods has completely become a battleground on the boundary between the territory of the two races.

Today, however, the Valley of the Buried Gods is not peaceful!

"Back to back, form a defensive circle!"

Liu Ao roared angrily, held a standard long knife, and slashed at a black-haired wolf that rushed over.

But this beast's hair was hard, and Liu Ao's knife didn't kill it, but was slammed into it and flew out.

"Wow~"

Liu Ao's back was cold, and his scalp was instantly numb.

Before he had time to react, Liu Ao slashed the long knife violently and stabbed his backhand backwards.

"Tsk~"

A blue-green mantis demon taller than a human screamed and smashed to the ground, and was quickly hacked to death by the soldiers who rushed to support.

After a few moments, the battle ended.

What was left behind were dozens of corpses, as well as dozens of black-haired wolves and the dead mantis demon.

"Liu Ao, how are you doing here?"

A middle-aged man arrived with red eyes and panting, his face was solemn, he was burly, wearing a pitch-black battle armor, and a long knife in his hand was already mottled.

In front of him, a thin but unusually tall figure was unraveling its scarred armor, revealing a bloody wound on his back.

"Hiss~"

Liu Ao frowned, took the liquor handed by his soldiers, and poured most of it with his backhand to wash the wound.

The severe pain made him gasp, and his face turned even paler: "Damn mantis demon, if Lao Tzu reacts slowly, I'm afraid it will be cut in two." ”

As he spoke, Liu Ao's expression became more and more gloomy, he glanced at the sergeants sitting on the ground around him and bandaged them, and said in a deep voice:

"There were seventy-eight people in my team when they came out, and now, there are only eighteen people who can still breathe!"

"Why are you here, aren't you in charge of defense at the Black Wind Mouth?"

The strong middle-aged man is called Li Wu, a descendant of a third-rate family in the southern region of Qingzhou, and has been joining the Demon Suppression Army for eleven years.

But even though he was used to seeing life and death, his eyes were still red, and he roared angrily:

"Lao Tzu's team is all gone!"

Liu Ao's eyes lit up, and he grabbed Li Wu's neck suddenly, "Then why are you still alive!"

Thirty-five-year-old Li Wu, in front of twenty-year-old Liu Ao, was speechless to refute.

Yes, they are all dead, why are they still alive?

Don't look at Liu Ao is only twenty years old, but he has been in the army for ten years, otherwise he would not be able to lead the team.

Facing life and death all year round, Liu Ao instantly became vigilant, after all, no matter how brave a soldier is, there has been a precedent of betrayal.

Around, the eighteen soldiers under Liu Ao's command looked over one after another, and what they hated the most was a traitor!

Li Wu's expression was gloomy, and suddenly, he pushed Liu Ao away, and violently waved the mottled long knife in his hand, which turned out to be about to kill himself.

Liu Ao's eyes narrowed, a trace of unbearability flashed on his angular face, and he suddenly reached out and grabbed the blade.

'Tick, tick...

The bright red blood smashed on the ground, and it seemed to knock on Li Wu's heart.

"You saved me, I believe you this time, even if you kill me, I will not regret it. ”

The upright posture of the two finally stiffened slightly, and they sat on the ground full of tiredness and weakness.

A soldier handed over a pot of turbid wine, Liu Ao raised his neck and drank most of it, and threw the rest to Li Wu.

"There must be some conspiracy behind the sudden attack of the demon clan this time," Liu Ao thought for a long time and slowly shook his head, "I really can't guess their purpose." ”

Li Wu also fell into deep thought, saying that it was too early to make a profit, and this time the battle happened too suddenly.

"You say, could it have something to do with the blood of the gods?"

Hearing this, Liu Ao's body stiffened, looked up at the dark red mist above the canyon, and slowly shook his head, "Bullshit god blood, if there is really a god, why do you want to connive at the demon clan to bring disaster to the world?"

"Yes," Li Wu slammed his fist to the ground, shattering a stone the size of a millstone to pieces.

"I'm the only one left in my team, and someone from above should be sent to investigate me soon," Li Wu looked at Liu Ao deeply and reminded:

"Be careful yourself, you have made a lot of achievements in the past few years, but you have not been able to be promoted to squadron leader for a long time, and you have been sent to a place like the Valley of the Buried Gods, who is making trouble, you should know in your heart. ”

Liu Ao sneered, "Those who are desperate are thinking about the survival of Qingzhou, but those people above will only deceive me and murder their own people, Qingzhou is in danger!"

Suddenly, a soldier who was missing his right arm staggered over, "Captain, Qiu Long is here." ”

"Qiu Long!"

Li Wu looked at Liu Ao with guilt, and his voice was low:

"Looks like we're going to hurt you. ”

Qiu Long was the same age as Liu Ao, his face was handsome, but his eyebrows were full of arrogance and frivolity, he wore a dazzling black armor, and walked quickly under the protection of dozens of followers.

"Bang!"

As soon as Qiu Long came over, he kicked Li Wu in the chest, causing him to fly upside down, and the wound that had not stopped bleeding was torn open in an instant.

Li Wu dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, after all, Qiu Long's grandfather was a general in the Law Enforcement Department of the Demon Suppression Army, and he couldn't afford to offend.

Qiu Long glanced at Liu Ao, who was expressionless, and snorted coldly, "Liu Ao, what crime should you be guilty of?"

Li Wu straightened up with guilt on his face and said in a dull voice:

"It has nothing to do with Liu Ao, it's me who didn't guard the black outlet, I..."

"You know a!"

Qiu Long's eyes widened, and he suddenly raised his slap and slapped at Li Wu.

Li Wu was already seriously injured, and he couldn't dodge the slap, and was directly knocked to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

The corners of Qiu Long's mouth turned up, and he smiled weirdly, "Liu Ao, as far as I know, you and Li Wu drank alcohol the day before yesterday, which caused him to return to the Black Wind Outlet half an hour late, which caused the Black Wind Outlet to be lost, you won't shirk this responsibility, right?"

Liu Ao didn't speak, just looked at Qiu Long coldly.

"Don't say I didn't give you a chance," Qiu Long yawned, his eyes full of contempt, "Now take your people and immediately pursue the demon clan that passes through the Black Wind Mouth, if it's too late, you can't afford the consequences!"

Seeing that Liu Ao still didn't speak, Qiu Long raised his eyebrows:

"What, don't listen to orders? I, the squadron leader, don't order you to be the squad leader?"

Liu Ao took a deep breath, resisted the urge to make a move, and said coldly: "If you want to embarrass me, I can do it, but I remind you that the Burial God Valley is very important, once I leave, the demon clan is very likely to go deep into our rear from here, you can't afford this responsibility, and your grandfather can't afford it." ”

"That's not your business," Qiu Long snorted coldly, "Execute the order!"

As he spoke, Qiu Long turned around and left, leaving only a threatening word:

"You can try the consequences of disobeying orders, and I'm glad to see you hunted down by Law Enforcement. ”

After Long Ao and his party left with Li Wu, Liu Ao smashed his fist on the boulder next to him, and his anger was unsettled.

If it weren't for the fear of affecting the group of brothers under him, Liu Ao would have already swung his fist at Qiu Long.

Liu Ao's eyes were red and he looked at the only dozen or so brothers left.

If the demon clan really attacks, who will survive?

Liu Ao was shaken, perhaps, taking this opportunity to take them away was a better choice.

But the shame of escaping, Liu Ao didn't dare to think about it.

"Bury the brothers first, and then..." Liu Ao glanced at the Valley of the Burial Gods, which was beginning to be shrouded in dark red mist, and said in a low voice:

Then set off to pursue the demons. ”

After speaking, Liu Ao carried a pot of spirits and turned around and walked away.

Rounding a corner, Liu Ao suddenly weakened, and fell to the ground suddenly, his eyes were red.

"Brothers, I'm sorry for you. ”

The whimpering sound could not be suppressed, and tears burst out of his eyes without fighting.

"Bang bang bang!"

Liu Ao frantically smashed his fist on the ground, and his fist was already blood-red.

Not far behind him, the two soldiers who followed him stopped and consciously became vigilant.

They knew that Liu Ao was the most uncomfortable in his heart.

"Click~"

Liu Ao's fist stopped in mid-air, and a sound similar to breaking glass sounded.

Liu Ao took two deep breaths, clenched his teeth to stop his emotions, and picked up the stone that was smashed by himself.

A thumb-sized red translucent crystal came into view, and several small cracks had already appeared on it.

"Spirit stones?"

Liu Ao quickly rejected his idea, even the most cherished Blood Spirit Stone would not be so bright and noble.

This thing, it's like... Blood!

Liu Ao's eyes trembled, Burial God Valley, the legend of divine blood, could it be that there is really a god falling here, this is divine blood?

But God only exists in legends, and they all fear God, but no one can say what God looks like or what he is capable of.

"Captain, it's time to go," the soldier reminded in a low voice, "and if it's too late, you'll be court-martialed." ”

Thinking of the battle he might face next, and thinking that his soldiers would be killed by the demon clan, Liu Ao, who had never believed that 'he was in control of his own destiny', had unrealistic illusions for the first time.

What if this is really God's blood?

After taking it by myself, can I get divine power?

The ghost made the god worse, Liu Ao picked up the crystal, hesitated for a moment, and threw it directly into his mouth, his teeth clenched, and a stream of liquid without any taste instantly slipped down his throat.

"Let's go!"
