It was noon.
Suddenly, a demon's roar was heard from the black fog, shaking like thunder.
The demon army attacks the city again!
Dense groups of demons rushed out from the black fog, with bared fangs and claws, and ferocious faces.
In the sky, there were also black masses of demonic birds roaring and flying.
The people of Dayan have been ready for battle!
At this time, Luo Qingzhou and his group immediately took this opportunity to set out from the opened west gate.
A total of four people went on this mission.
In addition to Luo Qingzhou and Yue Yao, there was also Yueying's cousin, the girl named A Ya, and the burly young man named Ren Xiaobei who was good friends with Qin Chuan.
A-ya is naturally incapable of getting lost and can see through any illusion.
Ren Xiaobei knows the petrification technique. As long as he has enough internal energy, he can instantly turn everyone around him into stone and block out all breath.
The skills of both of them are very helpful for this mission.
Luo Qingzhou didn't want to bring anyone with him.
But the appearance of Sister Yue made it impossible for him to be stubborn any longer.
Moreover, A Ya and Ren Xiao Bei's skills are indeed very practical and may help him reach Mo City faster and safer.
So, he compromised.
The four of them left the West City and took a detour into the mountains.
Then they crossed mountains and rivers and rushed eastward.
Linqiu City in the distance was soon submerged in black fog, and its outline could no longer be seen.
"I hope my sisters can hold on..."
When crossing another mountain, A Ya stood on the top of the mountain, looking in the direction where Lin Qiu City disappeared, and said with a worried look on his face.
Luo Qingzhou also looked back but said nothing.
The four of them seized the opportunity and continued on their journey.
Night falls quickly.
They did not rest and finally walked out of the forest near dawn.
There is a swamp ahead.
Perhaps it was because there were no living creatures here anymore. Although the crown of the magic tree was still covering the sky, there were no roots on the ground.
The surroundings were also gray and dead silent.
They went around the side of Liucheng, but no matter what, they still had to get close to Liucheng and pass under Liucheng before they could reach Mocheng.
Fortunately, the demon army is attacking Linqiu City at this moment.
Along the way, we didn't encounter any demons.
Of course, we didn’t encounter any monsters.
When they were only seven or eight miles away from Liucheng, some dark and twisted tree roots finally appeared on the ground.
The four of them immediately slowed down, restrained their breathing, and tried to pass through the open space in the middle.
Perhaps the magic tree's attention was all on the demon army or Linqiu City at this moment, so when the four people passed by the tree roots, the roots did not notice or move at all.
“Speed up!”
Seeing this, the four of them were delighted and immediately quickened their pace.
When they were still two miles away from Liucheng, the roots of the trees on the ground seemed to finally smell the scent and began to move.
But still no demon appeared.
Luo Qingzhou walked in front, holding a black and white sword. He slashed with the sword, lightning flashed, and the tree roots instantly turned into ashes.
When the four of them came near Liucheng, they could see the situation of the city clearly.
Today's Liucheng has turned into a dead city.
The city walls, the houses in the city, and even the city gates were all pierced by thick black tree roots and filled with demonic energy.
There is no demon left that once occupied Liucheng.
There aren't even any demons anymore.
All the demons seemed to have gone to Linqiu City.
"Let's go! To Mo City!"
The demon army is coming out in full force, I’m afraid Linqiu City won’t be able to hold out for long.
The four of them felt a sinking feeling in their hearts, and not daring to hesitate, they immediately ran towards the place where the magic tree was rooted - Mo City!
There are more and more tree roots on the road.
Moreover, waves of demons began to rush out from the black fog.
The four of them continued to move forward while killing.
Luo Qingzhou clearly felt streams of air entering his body and then transforming into pure vital energy.
“Swish! Swish! Swish!”
He killed one enemy with his sword without slowing down.
Soon, the outline of Mo City ahead appeared in the black fog.
Seeing this familiar city, Luo Qingzhou showed a complicated look in his eyes, and said immediately: "From underground!"
He immediately took a few people and went underground.
There are more and more demons in front, and their strength seems to be getting stronger and stronger.
There are only a few humans who have been demonized, they are all strong monsters.
It seems that those once powerful demon tribes have been devoured by the evil tree and have all turned into monsters.
The four of them came underground and continued to move forward.
There are demon formations and dense tree roots underground, and the closer to Mo City, the thicker and stronger the roots become.
However, because of the formation and the need for earth-moving techniques, those demons did not appear.
As Luo Qingzhou and his companions had Dabao and Erbao, they treated the formation as nothing. They only needed to cut the roots of the magic tree to pass through quickly.
The resistance underground is obviously much smaller than that on the ground.
The four of them killed their way along the way and soon arrived at the city wall of Mo City.
At this time, there are more tree roots underground, and both their defense and attack power are much stronger than before.
At the same time, some powerful demons began to appear underground.
There are even seven or eight demons transformed from demon lords.
With the blessing of demonic energy, their strength becomes even stronger.
The underground is as dark as ink, full of traps and sneak attacks.
Not long after, the young man named Ren Xiaobei and A'ya were both injured, and both were almost pierced through the body by the demon's sharp claws.
Luo Qingzhou led the way.
Yue Yao was protecting behind him.
It took the four of them a long time to finally pass through the city wall and enter Mo City.
But underground in Mo City, the roots of the magic tree and the magic energy are even more powerful.
At the same time, the number of demons began to increase.
It is already difficult to move underground.
Seeing that the demons and tree roots around him were increasing in number and becoming stronger, Luo Qingzhou had no choice but to say, "Go to the ground!"
If they were on the ground, at least they could see the demons and sneak attacks around them.
Underground, there was soil all around. The demons that appeared underground were all transformed from monsters of the demon clan who were good at digging into the ground. Various sneak attacks emerged one after another, and they were completely unable to defend themselves against them.
Even Luo Qingzhou's leg was scratched with a bloody mark.
If this continues, I'm afraid all four of them will die underground.
“Swish!”
Luo Qingzhou took the lead and rushed forward.
When the four of them came out of the ground, they found that this was a street right next to the city wall.
There are no demons around yet.
The tree roots seemed to have gone underground and besieged them.
But the demons and tree roots underground should catch up soon.
Luo Qingzhou immediately said: "Xiaobei, turn us into stone first and hide for a while!"
Ren Xiaobei agreed immediately.
The four of them quickly rushed to the corner, either squatting or sitting.
A light flashed from Ren Xiaobei's body and fell on the other three people.
The four of them were instantly wrapped in a layer of rock material and could not move.
“Ouch—”
At this moment, a green-haired demon monster rushed out from the ground and looked around.
Then, several more demon lords emerged from the ground.
They had long lost their minds and consciousness, and only relied on their breath and the guidance of the magic tree to attack, so they did not immediately notice the stone in the corner.
“Ouch—”
At this time, one of the demon monsters suddenly rushed to the street on the right.
So, the remaining few demons and monsters immediately followed.
At this time, several more demons crawled out from the ground and began to wander around, searching around aimlessly.
The four of them were still hiding in the corner, motionless.
at the same time.
The gate of Linqiu City has been breached.
In the city gates and on the streets under the city walls, Da Yan practitioners and soldiers were fighting a desperate battle with the demons.
This time the demons seemed to have come out in full force, and seemed to have become even more powerful.
There are even a few demon masters.
Linghu Qingzhu, Fairy Zixia, and the masters of the five major sects have all been injured, and have encountered very powerful masters.
Zhuang Zhiyan was also facing a demon master. After hundreds of moves, even with his cultivation level of a mid-stage grandmaster, he was unable to withstand it.
The Great Flame practitioners and warrior soldiers around kept falling down, then transformed into demons and stood up, starting to sneak attack and massacre their former companions.
"Retreat to the inner city!"
Bai Yishan said quickly in mid-air.
The one fighting with him was still the powerful Golden Eagle King.
After just one day of absence, the Golden Eagle King's strength had increased, and the demonic energy on his body had become even richer and more powerful.
After fighting for a long time, he could no longer gain any advantage and was even injured.
And at this time.
On top of the city wall, a woman wearing a black feather and a black veil was standing there with her robe fluttering. With a cold gaze, she was searching for something among the crowd below.
But she searched for a long time and still couldn't find the figure.
She raised her head and looked towards the inner city.
“Ouch—”
The demons roared and rushed in from the city gate.
The Great Yan practitioners and soldiers began to retreat.
Night falls quickly.
"Walk!"
Luo Qingzhou was the first to stand up and walked into an alley with ease.
Although this place had long been occupied by demons and was now destroyed by the magic tree, many houses and streets had changed their original appearance, but he still remembered every street and every alley clearly.
After all, he used to come out to practice every night.
“Swish! Swish! Swish!”
As the four of them crossed the alley, a dense mass of sharp branches suddenly fell from the sky above their heads like a rainstorm.
"Follow me!"
Luo Qingzhou's whole body suddenly made a "sizzling" sound, and lightning flashed. Then the lightning turned into a shield of light, which was placed above his head.
When those branches as sharp as spears fell fiercely, they all pierced the light shield condensed by lightning, making a sizzling sound and were burned to ashes.
Luo Qingzhou used lightning to protect the three people and continued to move forward.
But at this time, those powerful demon lords and other demons all rushed over.
At the same time, the tree roots underground also came out.
"Card!"
As Yue Yao walked along, the tree roots on the ground around her froze into ice and shattered into pieces just as they were about to crawl over.
"boom!"
A gigantic demon lord, wielding an iron hammer, rushed towards the four people.
Luo Qingzhou immediately took out a black wooden stick and went straight forward.
There was a loud bang.
The huge iron hammer suddenly broke into pieces.
But the powerful force caused Luo Qingzhou's body to tremble, and his feet almost sank into the ground.
When the gigantic demon was about to swing the hammer handle to continue smashing forward, it was suddenly frozen into ice.
Luo Qingzhou suddenly jumped up, and the wooden stick in his hand grew bigger with a "swish". Then he gathered all his strength and smashed it heavily on the its head.
"Bang!"
The head of this giant demon king was instantly smashed into a puddle of mud.
Its huge body suddenly tilted and fell down.
At this time, the attacks of other demon lords and monsters had already hit Luo Qingzhou.
However, under the protection of his golden lightning armor and dragon scale armor, he was unharmed.
"Card!"
Another demon king was also suddenly frozen into ice.
Luo Qingzhou immediately took advantage of this opportunity, hit it with a stick, and took its life again!
At this time, other demons were frozen into ice one after another.
Luo Qingzhou's wooden stick carried armor-piercing lightning, and he struck them one by one, quickly sending them to the west.
The two of them cooperated tacitly, and several powerful demon lords were killed instantly.
New pure energy continued to flow into Luo Qingzhou's body.
The vitality in the Danhai is almost full!
"boom!"
His figure flashed and he appeared in front of A Ya and Ren Xiao Bei. After helping them to sweep away the other demons, he immediately said, "Keep moving forward!"
At this time, they were able to see through the black fog and the huge trunk of the magic tree.
But more demons came rushing over.
The branches in the sky and the roots underground also began to rush towards the four people madly, without fear of thunder and lightning.
They seemed to have sensed their purpose.
"laugh!"
A Ya suddenly groaned as one of her legs was pierced by a tree root on the ground.
She swayed and fell to the ground.
At this moment, a sharp tree root emerged from the ground and stabbed her back like a sword.
"Card!"
At this moment, the tree root was suddenly frozen.
Yue Yao pulled her over.
The tree root that pierced her leg also turned into ice chips and then disappeared.
Ah Ya said in a trembling voice: "Don't worry about me, you...you go quickly! I...I might become a demon..."
Luo Qingzhou swept away a group of demons with a stick. Hearing this, he turned around and looked at her, and saw the fear in her eyes.
But the evil energy that entered her legs was frozen and then cleared away.
"It's okay, the evil spirit has been cleared."
Luo Qingzhou said something to comfort her and immediately continued walking forward.
Suddenly, he saw a light shield appear on the street not far ahead.
The light shield rose from the ground and reached the middle of the air, level with the surrounding houses. It was like a big bowl turned upside down on the ground, isolating all the evil spirits around it, as well as the branches and roots of the evil tree.
At this moment, inside the light shield, there seemed to be several figures looking at them quietly.
"That is..."
Luo Qingzhou was confused, but didn't have time to think about it.
Because he suddenly felt a dangerous breath coming from underground!
“Swish!”
Without any hesitation, he jumped up in a flash and swung the wooden stick in his hand towards the place where he had just stood.
"Bang!"
The stick hit a sharp claw.
A figure suddenly flew out from the ground, letting out an enchanting laugh. It suddenly turned around and rushed towards Yue Yao who was standing next to it.
