Chapter 10 The Might of the Holy Lord, Slaughtering in All Directions!
Nine Dragons City stood outside the extreme northern border.
Above the firmament, the wind and clouds suddenly changed.
A heaven-propping giant hand descended from the sky with the momentum of toppling mountains and overturning seas, crashing down fiercely like a towering majestic peak.
Inside the city, within the City Lord Manor.
A muffled sound suddenly came from an underground cultivation secret chamber. Immediately after, a middle-aged man with a pair of black iron feathers growing on his back flew out abruptly.
His burly figure hovered above the City Lord Manor, looking toward the sky with apprehension.
Visible to the naked eye, the direction where that massive fist fell from the clouds was precisely their City Lord Manor!
"Formation, rise!"
Buyuan, the patriarch of the Heaven-Reaching Great Peng Race, was startled. With swift movements, he struck out several rune seals.
Buzz!
Immediately after, the void trembled violently.
Outside Nine Dragons City, a formation barrier nearly a zhang thick suddenly rose up.
However, this formation barrier capable of obstructing a Unity Realm powerhouse was as fragile as a thin sheet of paper under that spiritual energy fist comparable to a giant peak. It was torn apart in an instant.
Boom...
The powerful formation barrier instantly shattered, reduced to countless void spiritual energy fragments. Finally, it was shattered into pure spiritual energy that scattered in all directions by the aftershocks of that falling punch.
Inside the city.
Countless human cultivators looked up with faces full of astonishment.
"En?"
"The formation barrier shattered? Could it be that the Demon Race has torn up the treaty and marched into the human domain?"
Many people thought with faces full of panic. At the same time, they were finding places to hide as best they could.
The situation in Nine Dragons City began to turn terrible.
...
"Hmph, Patriarch of the Great Peng Race, you really are here!"
At this moment, Gongsun Chi of the Nine Heavens Holy Land also appeared in the sky above the City Lord Manor.
He was draped in a Golden Sun Daoist Robe, his whole body shrouded in a white purifying fire. His eyes revealed full killing intent. His temperament was completely the opposite extreme of the refined scholar from before.
"How did you discover me?" Buyuan looked at the appearing Gongsun Chi, his eyes filled with unwillingness.
One had to know that he had only controlled the City Lord of Nine Dragons City for the past two days. The great army had already been deployed outside the city. Now, however, the plan was disrupted by people from the Nine Heavens Holy Land.
"Hmph, if you want to fight, I will accompany you. Let us do it right here!"
Buyuan roared in a low voice. He took out a black iron long spear and waved it. The roaring and howling sounds of a Ghost King could even be heard by his ears.
This was an Eighth Rank Low Grade magical artifact borrowed from a Unity Realm powerhouse of the Evil Ghost Race.
Gongsun Chi naturally knew what idea Buyuan was planning. With the battle aftershocks emitted by their Unity Realm cultivation, if they fought in the city, the entire city would be reduced to ruins.
Just at this moment, a sudden change occurred.
Gongsun Chi was seen taking out a small-range teleportation talisman. Before Buyuan had time to stop him, he instantly activated it.
Both their figures vanished from the City Lord Manor into thin air, arriving above the clouds in the firmament.
When Buyuan, who had been teleported away, looked down again, he discovered that the area below was shrouded by a patch of fiery light, completely obstructing his line of sight.
"Geng Gold Fire Cover!"
"You actually even took out the sect-guarding item of your Nine Heavens Holy Land!"
Buyuan was startled.
But before he could say anything more, Gongsun Chi raised his hand. Streams of extremely pure purifying fire condensed into chains that shot explosively toward Buyuan.
The sound of iron chains rubbing against each other echoed through the void.
Subsequently, these two Unity Realm mighty figures erupted into a terrifying great battle above the clouds.
Below.
The Demon Race army, which had long been lying in ambush not far outside the city, saw the huge commotion stirred up in Nine Dragons City.
They all charged up, covering the mountains and plains. Looking out, it was a mass of darkness with no end in sight.
"Kill! Occupy Nine Dragons City!"
"It is time for a big feast. Delicious human cultivators... just thinking of their delectable flesh and blood makes me unbearably excited!"
Within the Demon Race army sweeping up rolling black smoke, many Foundation Establishment demon beasts with ferocious faces were drooling and clamoring with excitement.
Now, the Nine Dragons City protection grand formation was destroyed. Although there was the Fire Cover for defense, the Fire Cover had to keep an eye on Buyuan above.
Therefore, Nine Dragons City below had a weakness.
However, currently, the strongest Demon Race mighty figure in this incident was already pinned down by the Holy Lord.
These trashy little demons were naturally left to the Nine Heavens Holy Land and the original city protection army of Nine Dragons City.
Even some ordinary cultivators in the city joined this defensive battle.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh...
At the same time.
Just as this gang of demon beasts was shouting incomparably arrogantly.
Several streaks of shocking rainbow light flew instantly from the horizon. Like roaring sword dragons, they directly pierced through the leading few Foundation Establishment Realm demon beasts.
Accompanied by several miserable shrieks from the demon beasts, they died and went to the Yellow Springs.
It was flying swords!
The other surviving demon beasts looked at those flying swords inserted obliquely into the ground, their blades trembling slightly, and their eyes were suddenly filled with shock.
Immediately after, on a giant peak not far in front of them, tens of thousands of Nine Heavens Holy Land disciples charged over.
The few Void Refining Realm and Nascent Soul Realm elders who arrived first all engaged in battle with these monster leaders.
For a time, demon Qi and sword Qi interwove with each other, and the chaotic battle began!
The Demon Race army sweeping up rolling black smoke and the torrent of Nine Heavens Holy Land disciples instantly merged together.
Shouts of killing rose one after another, and the battle situation was incomparably tragic.
Lin Xuan, who was rushing at the very front, suddenly raised his right hand. Countless streams of spiritual energy gathered crazily as if summoned.
In less than half a breath, a spiritual energy long spear nearly a zhang long appeared abruptly.
The spear body was sharp, and there were even wind attribute runes branded upon it.
"Wind Spirit Spear!"
This was a skill attached to the Wings of Creation.
Immediately, a cold glint flashed in Lin Xuan's eyes. He gripped the Wind Spirit Spear tightly and threw it directly.
Shua!
A swift afterimage sped through the void. With powerful strength added to the Wind Spirit Spear's own speed, it directly pierced through three Foundation Establishment Realm demon beasts. Furthermore, it pierced to death nearly twenty Qi Refining Realm demon beasts behind them.
Boom...
When the Wind Spirit Spear killed these dozens of demon beasts and fell into the Demon Race army, it exploded loudly. It affected nearly a hundred Qi Refining Realm demon beasts, sending them to the Yellow Springs.
"So strong!"
After witnessing the power of Lin Xuan's spear, the few Nine Heavens Holy Land disciples to his side had a bit more awe in their eyes.
However, Lin Xuan could not care about that much. The Wings of Creation behind him emerged abruptly. With a flap of the broad wings, he entered the Demon Race army like a gust of wind.
He thrust out his right hand. Under his vast strength, wherever he passed, whether it was Foundation Establishment Realm or Qi Refining Realm demon beasts, all exploded one after another. He directly carved out a bloody path.
The demon cores of these demon beasts were also swallowed down by Lin Xuan.
"Great Devouring Technique!"
Bang bang bang...
More than a dozen demon cores shattered in Lin Xuan's hand, turning into streams of pure demon Qi spiritual power that he swallowed into his abdomen.
"En!?"
"This human can actually devour demon power!"
Several Foundation Establishment Realm demon beasts in the surroundings instantly felt chills down their spines, and the hairs on their bodies stood on end.
In their common knowledge, a human body could not withstand the violent demon power within a demon core.
Moreover, humans and demons followed different paths. Even if one swallowed it forcefully, they would explode and die due to the conflict between the two types of spiritual power.
Yet, looking at Lin Xuan, after he swallowed more than a dozen demon cores, not only did he not explode and die, but he even seemed more ferocious.
When streams of rich demon Qi spiritual energy entered Lin Xuan's body, they were all devoured completely by those cellular particles.
How should one put it? It could only be considered an appetizer.
