The battle raged on, the world seemed to lose its luster, the rivers dried up and the mountains crumbled.
Right now, in the battlefield, the number of experts were simply terrifying, exuding fearsome might.
A battle between humans and demons, how could the scale of it not be big? The rules of the City of Ancient Emperors have changed, and it has never seen a battle on such a large-scale before. Numerous demons and humans joined in one after another, the situation causing even those who are unwilling to participate, to have no choice but to fight.
In fact, there were many supreme peak characters that was rarely seen in the City of Ancient Emperors participating as well. The fox maiden of the nine-tailed fox race, the first person to gain the inheritance of the buddha-type dao element, Jiang Zihua, as well as that the supreme greater demon sitting in the golden sun chariot who once killed a crown prince of the Taihua Immortal Dynasty. Right now, he was also one of those who stood at the peak, nobody dared to antagonize him. The people of his race also participated but he still didn’t act. Even when his fellow demons encountered danger, he still stood aside and merely observed the battle.
Right now, the entire immortal realms were in chaos, as the grand new era approaches. The situation in the immortal realms was no longer the same as before. Although the greater demons from the Desolate Mountain Range received a boost in their strength, but if they really wished to stand on the peak of the immortal realms, they still needed extraordinary strength. The City of Ancient Emperors was the best place to temper themselves.
Other than the peak characters of humanity, many royal-blooded greater demons of the Desolate Mountain Range appeared here, joining the battle and gradually suppressing the humans.
The battle was extremely intense, blood fell like rain from the sky. This situation was extremely brutal and the number of people who died was unknown. The void beasts and Heavenhold Race fought against Matriarch Ji’s sect and the maidens from the Southern Phoenix Clan. Little Rascal who reverted to his true form, single-handedly held his side of the battlefield, blocking numerous opponents. If it wasn’t for the joint efforts of many extraordinary supreme greater demons, it was unknown how many demon kings would have already been devoured by him.
Other than this, Jun Mengchen’s combat prowess was also extremely tyrannical. The void beast king fought with him but was unable to gain any advantages at all.
There were also a few supreme experts from the Southern Phoenix Clan. Phoenix shadows covered the sky, as their flames burned the heavens. But no matter how hard they fought, they were still suppressed, and many of them were already injured.
Qing`er’s expression was extremely cold. Spatial energy enveloped her protectively, and her clean robes were now stained with blood from her wounds, invoking feelings of pity from those who saw her.
At this moment, there were several greater demons surrounding her. A supreme greater demon from the Heavenhold Race had a lascivious look on his face. “What a beautiful maiden. I want her alive, everyone, please show mercy when you attack.”
“Sure.” A void beast coldly replied. To such a beautiful woman, the most cruel fate for her wasn’t to kill her.
“GO!” The greater demon from the Heavenhold Race punched out with boundless might as meteors fell from the sky. Qing`er’s expression turned heavy, her spatial law energy surrounded this area, trying to restrain the attacks.
“Hmph.” The void beast snorted coldly. He stepped through the void and opened up a spatial pathway, directly appearing before Qing`er as he attacked with his claws.
“The reason why so many humans participated in this battle, is actually because of this woman. Capture her!” Many greater demons rushed towards Qing`er, instantly putting her into a dangerous situation.
“RUMBLE!” At this moment, a blood-red lightning blasted onto a greater demon. That greater demon shuddered, but a moment later, boundless law energy manifested, transforming into a prison that trapped him within.
“NO!” That demon roared coldly, but before he could do anything, the lightning in the prison blasted him into ashes. Many demons glanced at the attacker, as they bristled with rage. The attacker was from a group of devil cultivators who were currently walking over. These devil cultivators all radiated the power of judgement, terrifying to the extreme.
“Devil cultivators from the Judiciary Hall, they actually participated. There might be many humans in the Myriad Devil Islands, but they have always stood in opposition to the immortal realms. Why would they help them now?” Someone had a puzzled look on his face.
“Judiciary Priestess.” The crowd turned their gazes towards a female in red robes and a judiciary crown on her head. She exuded a cold imposingness.
“The devil cultivators also wish to interfere?” In the air, a greater demon in human-form crossed his arms before his chest. He was an super-variation beast with the bloodline of a phoenix and a roc, an expert from the phoeroc race.
“Are devil cultivators of the Myriad Devil Islands not humans?” The priestess coldly replied. This scene actually caused another group of devil cultivators standing far away to have a bewildered look on their faces. They were dressed in black and resembled sinister shadows living in the darkness. They were none other than experts from the Darkness Devil Hall.
“Priestess Bai Qing has always been cold and emotionless, why is she suddenly so passionate now?” A devil cultivator coldly commented, clearly taken aback.
“Back then when Bai Qing was still in the immortal-foundation realm, there was a group of immortal cultivators who came to the Myriad Devil Islands. Do you still remember that time?”
“Mhm.”
“Back then, Bai Qing was acquainted with a person and referred to him as Wentian gege. From this, you can know how close they were. This Qin Wentian created a huge commotion on our devil mountain. He is also extremely famous in the immortal realms and this Evergreen Qing`er is none other than his fiancee.” A devil cultivator pointed at Qing`er as he spoke.
“In that case, Bai Qing doing this now is to help her. However, given Bai Qing’s attitude towards Qin Wentian, does she really just treat him like an elder brother?”
The devil cultivator at the side coldly laughed. “Of course she only treats him as an elder brother. If not, why would she help Qin Wentian’s woman?”
“Maybe her feelings for him are too deep?” The other devil cultivators laughed, as though they were speaking of insignificant matters.
“Didn’t you guys hear it? Devil cultivators from the Myriad Devil Islands are also humans. Could it be that you all aren’t demons?” From the air, an expert from the phoeroc race coldly roared at the sky rocs and white tigers. After that, he directly soared through the air and attacked the devil cultivators from the Judiciary Hall, fighting against them intensely.
In all directions, the number of spectators far exceeded the number of fighters. But as long as more humans joined in, the demons would gradually be suppressed.
From afar, a supreme expert was hurrying over. This was none other than Qin Wentian, his robes fluttered with the wind as he constantly extended his immortal sense outwards. With a single glance, he could tell that the demons and humans were fighting against each other, with all major powers and different demonic races being involved.
Also, in the center of the battlefield, Qing`er, Jun Mengchen, Nanfeng Yunxi, Little Rascal and Bai Qing were actually there. The sight of those familiar silhouettes couldn’t help but to cause his heart to stir.
When he saw the wounds of Qing`er, and the blazing manner in which Jun Mengchen fought, his eyes gleamed with a cold killing intent.
Finally, he arrived here. He then transformed into a beam of light and directly rushed into the battlefield while roaring tyrannically, “What’s going on? A bunch of vile beasts dares to insult humanity? All you vile creatures, stop for this seat!”
This voice was tyrannical to the extreme, insulting the demons and having no regards for anything in his eyes. With a single sentence, Qin Wentian was instantly involved in the battlefield.
However, for king-level battles, especially such a large-scale one, how could they ceasefire just like this with a single sentence from Qin Wentian? The experts in combat didn’t stop, both sides still continued warring.
“You guys didn’t hear this seat’s words?” Qin Wentian coldly spoke. His palm shot through the air, manifesting a countless number of swords that flew towards Qing`er and Bai Qing’s direction. When those demons sensed the powerful sword intent, all of them finally reacted. However, it was too late, many greater demons were slain by the tyrannical sword intent, giving rise to roars and screams of pain and agony.
Instantly, many parts of the battlefield fell to silence as numerous gazes gleaming with sharpness turned to Qin Wentian.
“Saber-Sword Immortal King!” Someone recognized Qin Wentian as he couldn’t help but to exclaim.
“He is the Saber-Sword Immortal King? Seems like the peak characters of humanity and demonkind are all participating in this battle.” The eyes of many flashed. If the Saber-Sword Immortal King participated, the situation might change.
Many demons also stared at Qin Wentian, and the copious amounts of emperor’s fate behind him. So, this is the Saber-Sword Immortal King who killed the Yama King within nine breaths of time? He is truly tyrannical indeed, wanting the battle to stop just from a single sentence from him.
“Saber-Sword Immortal King, stop being so insolent.” A supreme greater demon from the phoeroc race stepped out. His eyes gleamed with sharpness as he stared at Qin Wentian. Earlier, one of the greater demons who died to Qin Wentian, belonged to his race.
“Insolent?” Qin Wentian inclined his head, his eyes shooting out two streams of sword intent, gushing at the phoeroc. That demon hurriedly stepped aside, arcing through the sky as he roared, “WHAT ARE YOU DOING?”
“You think you can escape?” Qin Wentian coldly sneered. A sword qi river gushed forth, as screams of misery rang out. A few moments later, the crowd only saw the peak-stage demon king from the phoeroc race being lacerated into pieces. This was simply terrifying to the extreme.
“This Saber-Sword Immortal King truly lives up to his reputation as mentioned in the rumors. His personality is truly lawless and tyrannical. There are so many demons here, and each of the demon races possess supreme experts, especially for the phoeroc race. Yet, he directly started killing the moment he came here.” The crowd trembled, this Saber-Sword Immortal King was simply too fierce.
Qing`er’s eyes flashed with a strange light as she stared at Qin Wentian. Earlier, that sword attack from Qin Wentian seemed to be a casual strike, but it had immediately lifted the pressure on her, causing her to be somewhat puzzled.
“Qing`er, it’s me.” At this moment, a voice rang out in her mind. Instantly, Qing`er only felt currents of warmth in her heart. She lowered her head and glanced at her wounds. The frostiness in her eyes all melted away. This fellow hasn’t looked for her despite her already being in here in the City of Ancient Emperors for a long time. So it turned out that he actually assumed a different identity!
