Chapter 429 - Chapter 429 Chapter 239 Demon Attack (Seeking Monthly Votes)_2

Chapter 429: Chapter 239: Demon Attack (Seeking Monthly Votes)_2 Chapter 429: Chapter 239: Demon Attack (Seeking Monthly Votes)_2 Yet as the giant spider died, a large, visible cloud of evil qi burst forth and began to dissipate.

Even the powerful practitioners who quickly gathered around had a slight change in their expressions.

As Cultivators, who wouldn’t fear the emergence of evil qi?

“Gather!”

The elder hesitated for a moment but still gritted his teeth and began casting, causing the golden seal to flicker with a flash of golden light.

It then swallowed all the evil qi that emerged from the dead giant spider into itself.

Seeing the evil qi being absorbed, the other powerful practitioners breathed a sigh of relief.

Before they had the chance to investigate the scene,

they heard abnormal noises from a distant block, and in no time, a warehouse collapsed with a loud bang!

“There are evildoers and demons lurking in the district!”

“Quick! We must suppress these demons that have sneaked in; we can’t let them disrupt our troops’ morale!”

After the alarmed shouts, the gathering individuals swiftly sprang into action.

A Deputy Pavilion Master from the Thousand Strange and Ten Thousand Skill Pavilion flew to the side of the Guardian female cultivator:

“Guardian… before…”

“Such a thing has never happened before!”

The Guardian female cultivator knew what the other party wanted to ask, and her expression turned serious:

“Under the Heaven and Earth Net Array, the Demon Kings should find it difficult to approach the Outer City District due to being trapped.”

“Moreover, the more Demon Kings there are, the more energy from the Big Array we can utilize.”

“Therefore, the guards of the Outer City District normally only need to face some low-tier demon beasts at the Qi Cultivation Stage and Foundation Establishment Stage.”

“And it would be up to us to confront the ones with exceptional talents at the Foundation Establishment Stage.”

“But now, those demon beasts turned Demon Kings… when trapped by the Big Array, are actually able to create demon avatars, and through means unknown to us, directly invaded our core areas.”

“This method has been reported to the Immortal Sect, and I believe it won’t be long before we’ll be able to remedy it.”

“We just need to hold on for a few days.”

The last few statements, the Guardian female cultivator deliberately amplified her volume so that the powerful practitioners around could hear clearly.

This was also a way to calm the hearts of the people.

Yet, the Deputy Pavilion Master couldn’t help but guess that this might have something to do with the Earth Veins being contaminated.

The incident of the Evil God Avatar sealed within the Artifact Heart Sect’s Earth Veins wasn’t too long ago.

It seemed that as the invasion of the evil qi intensified and reached a certain threshold,

the Earth Veins inadvertently became an aid for the invasion of these demons and evil spirits.

However, none of the major sects were willing to make the big decision to destroy the Earth Veins.

After all, the Earth Veins signified the Spirit Veins, and without the Spirit Veins, Cultivators would become like rootless trees.

With a light sigh, the Deputy Pavilion Master flew to the block where the Thousand Strange and Ten Thousand Skill Pavilion was located. With a wave of his hand, thousands of talismans flew out and affixed themselves to the doorways and windows of the buildings.

As the thousands of talismans settled on them, a hint of golden light was emitted.

In a small house within this district, a pair of golden boy and girl twins were sleeping when suddenly, a monkey-shaped monster appeared by their bed.

Feeling a flash of light around them, the demon turned into a puff of black smoke in the blink of an eye.

And then this wisp of black smoke was quickly drawn away and vanished by the suction coming from all directions.

As if it had never appeared at all.

Yet the thousands of talismans affixed in the district simultaneously showed a thin black scratch.

“Amitabha!”

“With the compassion of Buddha, all beings are delivered!”

In another district, a high monk walked out of the temple and sat cross-legged right in the middle of the street.

As the Buddhist chant was uttered, a circle of Buddha light rose from the monk’s body, enveloping most of the district.

Then, accompanied by screams,

the demons within the golden circle dissipated one by one.

However, faint black qi began to appear on the monk’s body, which the Buddha light seemed unable to expel.

“Kekeke!”

“Kill, kill, kill!”

“By the grace of the True God, I am blessed with an unending supply of divine power.”

“My avatars are inexhaustible as they are slain, and how long can you resist the corruption in time?”

“Guarding Immortal City, the Heaven and Earth Net Array?”

“Just be slowly eroded away by me!”

The Great Demon hidden within the yellow haze sensed the heavy casualties of its dispatched avatars but laughed instead of being angry.

As a former normal Demon King, it knew how troublesome the Heaven and Earth Net Array was.

The thirty-six Guardian Immortal Cities seemed to be separate entities, yet they were interconnected in spirit.

Under the arrangements of Immortal Chiyuan, if any of the Immortal Cities encountered an overwhelming siege from multiple Demon Kings or even Demon Emperors,

they could borrow the strength of those cities not under attack to trap the excess Demon Kings and Emperors.

If it had not been for this, the armies amassed within the Ten Thousand Mountains would have long since shattered each Guardian Immortal City.

They would not have waited until this moment.

Hence, when the Demon realized that its low-tier Avatars tainted with Evil Spirits could bypass the Big Array and be sent out,

it conceived the plan to pull the rug out from under them, to use the Evil Qi to contaminate the various nodes of the Big Array within the city.

If one were careless enough to physically destroy the nodes of the Big Array… that would naturally be a huge gain!

When an issue arose within the Guardian Immortal City,

the Outer City District also encountered the first group of charging demon beasts.

The cultivators defending this area were not panicked.

In the past few decades, they had encountered demon beast sieges more than just once or twice.

Through their familiarity, they knew how to cast spells to most quickly utilize the mana on the city walls, blasting away those charging demon beasts.

Under the outer city’s Formation, the agility of the Qi Cultivation Stage and Foundation Establishment Stage demon beasts would greatly decrease,

and they would occasionally suffer from mental attacks, interrupting their actions.

Meanwhile, the city’s defenders could borrow part of the Formation’s mana, making their spellcasting not only more powerful but also less draining.

“Hmm?”

The captain of a defending squad had just released five fireballs that triggered a series of explosions,

and he immediately noticed that these demon beasts were unusually weak.

Normally, the attacking force should number over ten thousand demon beasts, with at least seventy to eighty at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

But now, it seemed they were almost all at the Qi Cultivation Stage.

And each one of them seemed malnourished, making the captain feel that even without the enhancement of the Formation, they could easily hold their defensive zone.

Hours later, with the attacking demon beasts wiped out completely,

a few Foundation Establishment Cultivators leading the charge couldn’t help but fly down to the ground of the Outer City District.

After some inspection, their expressions turned ugly.

After exchanging glances, they unanimously decided to report this anomaly.

But just as they were about to leave,

the ground corrupted by the dead demon beasts suddenly turned into a swamp, trapping the cultivators up to their thighs the moment they stepped in.

Afterward, even with their Foundation Establishment Cultivation, they found themselves unable to extricate themselves from the mire trap.

At the same time, their essence energy was being rapidly absorbed and devoured by the swampy ground.

Bang!

All of a sudden, one of the Foundation Establishment Cultivators’ eyes flashed, and his head separated from his neck and flew into the air.

Then apart from this head-taking cultivator, the remaining Foundation Establishment Cultivators had already turned into mummies, which then dissolved into black mud, merging with the swamp.

…

Inside the Blood God Secret Realm, at the waist of a mountain, which did not pale in comparison to a royal garden, there was a pavilion.

Su Ping, transformed into White Crane True Man, was enjoying tea and music with Little True Man Mu.

They were catching up on old times, and Su Ping also wanted to hear from Little True Man Mu about their experiences in the secret realm.

Little True Man Mu was not surprised by the arrival of White Crane True Man.

Not long after fleeing from Artifact Heart Sect to this secret realm,

Little True Man Mu learned about his once good friend, the former master of this oversea island.

The White Crane True Man, who had succeeded in Foundation Establishment much earlier than himself, had already joined the ranks of the Blood God Ancestor.

Understanding the plight of his fellow cultivator, Little True Man Mu felt that this young man was quite fortunate.

An ordinary Loose Cultivator, with no background or resources,

had somehow managed to join the Blood God Ancestor’s faction without facing any danger, even making his way into the secret realm.

Little True Man Mu had already decided that he would seek the counsel of this fortune-blessed individual for any future decisions.

“Little brother, let me tell you,”

“you know me, I never deceive those close to me.”

“You must indeed fulfill your duties!”

“From my many years of experience as Little True Man Mu, despite how it seems now with few people, and the living spaces expanding, ”

“the place will surely be overcrowded in the future!”

“By that time, the competition will inevitably be incredibly fierce; for us cultivators with average talents, if not relying on the qualifications accumulated now, it will become difficult to get by!”
