“Southern city, Ming Gu City has fallen!”
“All the Semi-God Realm warriors are approaching a Teleportation Formation nearby at full speed. They must have searched souls of high-up human leaders there.”
“Yes… our warriors of the Ocean Land of the East are evacuating. They are destroying the entrances!”
“Enemies will arrive in half a day but that entrance has been destroyed already…”
He Yue kept updating the information of the Ocean Land of the East. The Semi-God Realm invaders were reacting fast. Only a few hours had passed and they were already heading for the entrances.
If Patriarch of Law Enforcement were less decisive, the entrances would never be destroyed in time, and those Semi-God Realm warriors would have entered the Demon-slaying Battleground in half a day.
But would the destroyed openings stop the Semi-God Realm invaders?
Of course not!
The Ocean Land of the East and the Great Land were both at the Heaven Reverse Universe. There was a vast ocean between the two lands. Therefore, for all this time, when humans were going to attack the Asmodians or the other way around, they would go through the Demon-slaying Battleground. Both lands had many passageways connected to the Demon-slaying Battleground.
No matter how far away the two lands were from each other, the distance wouldn’t bother the Semi-God Realm warriors who, if they flew across the sea at their full speed, would spend months at most to arrive. Destroying the entrances would not stop the Semi-God Realm warriors from reaching the Great Land.
Besides…
Those Semi-God Realm warriors could break down spatial barriers between different universes. Even when the connection between the Ocean Land of the East and the Demon-slaying Hall was ruined, the warriors could force that open and that wouldn’t take them long.
Patriarch of Law Enforcement paced up and down in his room. A moment later, he asked, “Has Lu Li finished cultivating?”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement had sent Patriarch Sun for Lu Li but it was too late. The Semi-God Realm invaders were too fast. So, Patriarch of Law Enforcement told He Yue to send her subsidiary bodies in the Inferno to the base camp to Lu Li directly.
“Not yet!”
He Yue shook her head. “I have notified Madam Jiang and she has gone for master. But he is inside the Wicked Bead. Madam Jiang knocked on the Wicked Bead and crushed a jade talisman but master has not come out yet. I suppose… he is at a critical juncture.”
“What to do now?”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement used psychic power to check outside. The city was being evacuated. It was a mess in the city and many warriors were in shock. However, the evacuation went well. In one day at most, all of them, apart from the Earth Immortal Realm warriors, would go back to the Great Land.
Without Lu Li, Patriarch of Law Enforcement could not contact God of Barbarian, God of Sorcerer or Emperor of Heaven Reverse! Only the Grand Master could contact Emperor of Heaven Reverse. Patriarch of Law Enforcement tried but the statue did not give any signals.
There were one hundred Semi-God Realm warriors and every one of them was more powerful than Patriarch of Law Enforcement. If he had learned the Method of Shield, he might be able to withstand the attacks from some Semi-God Realm warriors. But 10 at the peak of this realm could kill Patriarch of Law Enforcement in one move.
Patriarch of Law Enforcement both desired Lu Li to stop cultivating and at the same time, prayed otherwise. Patriarch of Law Enforcement even wanted to destroy that secret tunnel connected to the Deserted World.
The other two passageways would be destroyed soon. Once this last one secret tunnel was ruined, the Prison of Wood, Inferno and the Deserted World would lose all connection to the Heaven Reverse Universe. Lu Li could not come back even if he wanted to.
In this way, the Heaven Reverse Universe would descend into catastrophe. Everyone here would die. But, Lu Li would survive!
For Patriarch of Law Enforcement, Lu Li was the hope for the Heaven Reverse Universe and he was the most likely to become an immortal. When that happened, he could come back for revenge.
On the other hand, Lu Li had struck a deal with God of Barbarian and God of Sorcerer. He could solicit help from Emperor of Heaven Reverse. Ke Mang had set up powerful formations of illusion and destruction, also they had the Dragon Demon. Patriarch of Law Enforcement had not lost all of his hopes…
Over at the Ocean Land of the East, He Yue’s subsidiary bodies were being killed. The Semi-God Realm invaders killed all the subsidiary bodies at sight wherever they were at.
Even though the subsidiary bodies were being cleared out, He Yue could still track the Semi-God Realm warriors. At least, she knew where they were.
He Yue was in fear. Lu Li had not come. Would Patriarch of Law Enforcement, Master of Fairy Fox and Master of Haechi be able to stall the Semi-God Realm warriors? Would Lu Li defeat them even if he were here?
Over half a day later!
The more than one hundred Semi-God Realm warriors arrived at the entrance. A battalion was stationed here. The entrance had been destroyed. In a fit of rage, a Semi-God Realm warrior murdered the thousands of warriors here.
Many subsidiary bodies of He Yue were stationed over there. Some of them were underground and even in restrooms. However, given how strong the psychic powers of the Semi-God Realm warriors were, the subsidiary bodies were all uncovered and then killed.
He Yue lost her source of information. She mobilized some subsidiary bodies from nearby and let them move toward the entrance. But they kept their distance. In this way, she would know at once when the Semi-God Realm warriors left.
“I think…”
An hour later, He Yue opened her eyes. “They are trying to open up a passageway to the Demon-slaying Battleground. They have been in there for two hours and the valley where that old entrance exists is having violent movements.”
“I wonder how long it will take.”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement was bothered. If the Semi-God Realm warriors could open up the passageway and enter the Demon-slaying Hall, then they would arrive at the Demon-slaying City in a couple of days.
“Here!”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement shouted after some thoughts, “Has Jiang Tianshun come back?”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement had notified Jiang Tianshun at the Feather Land of the West and the warriors at the Barbarian Land of the North to come back and start a full-blown withdraw. There were proxy masters to oversee the Barbarian Land of the North and Voodoo Land of the South. The Feather Race had no powerful warriors. If something went wrong, the land could be taken back by force.
A patriarch reported. “He is on his way back. He will arrive soon.”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement nodded. “Tell Jiang Tianshun to come and find me when he does.”
He Yue mobilized her subsidiary bodies to all sides of the Demon-slaying Battleground so that she could know at once when the Semi-God Realm warriors entered the Demon-slaying Battleground after they broke down the spatial barrier.
Time passed by in such stress. Ten hours later, He Yue opened her eyes. “As I have expected, they are breaking the spatial barrier. The space to the west of Asmodian City is shaking but not strongly. I think the Semi-God Realm warriors will enter the Demon-slaying Battleground in two to three days at most.”
“Two to three days!”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement was frustrated. Two to three days to find their way into the Demon-slaying Battleground, and one day at most to arrive at the city. Patriarch of Law Enforcement only had three more days to prepare.
“Whoosh!”
A man came flying in. It was Jiang Tianshun. He looked at Patriarch of Law Enforcement in fright and asked, “They are here?”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement nodded. He took out a map. “Yes. Jiang Tianshun, you need to leave as well. I need you to go to this place at the Great Land and when I crush the jade talisman, go to the Deserted World from here at once. Then, from the other side, destroy the portal. Also—tell Lu Li to work hard and avenge us in the future, but do not act out of impulse.”
“What?”
Jiang Tianshun read the map and soon realized that this was a secret passageway to the Deserted World. Patriarch of Law Enforcement was resolute. Jiang Tianshun shook his head. “Patriarch of Law Enforcement, where there is life, there is hope. Please go with us. I don’t think those warriors will slaughter all the humans at the Great Land.”
“I am not leaving!”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement shook his head. “I am the Patriarch of Law Enforcement of the Demon-slaying Hall. Someone has to stay with the Demon-slaying Hall. Someone has to… sacrifice himself in this cause!”
