Luo Wusheng no longer thought about this detail.
Whether the demons come to kill him or not, it doesn’t matter.
Anyway, he will chop the monsters until they have no choice but to chop him.
Otherwise, how can I revive and escape
… Um
When this idea came to mind, Mr. Luo was stunned, and vaguely seemed to have grasped some inspiration.
"Let's get back to business. Even if the demon formation in the south of the city is also wiped out, it won't be a big deal. It's just that the demon soldiers summoned by the temporary demon formation will be of lower level. As long as it can cause chaos in the fairyland, it will be enough... Besides, they can't erase the real big formation."
Luo Wusheng's spiritual light was interrupted by the words coming from the blue stars and disappeared in a flash.
Then the black dragon's voice sounded.
"Hehe, don't forget what task the Demon Lord gave us before this."
"The cultivators in the Royal City who are at the early stage of the Nascent Soul stage..."
… …
The royal city, the space where the trial platform is located.
The first day's competition for the Human Immortal Ranking has ended, but no one has left the space.
This space specially prepared for the fairyland is filled with rich spiritual energy and a mysterious power. One day of practice is better than ten days in the outside world. Naturally, no one will miss this opportunity.
However, compared to ordinary spectators, the participating contestants are more special and have rest seats specially prepared for them.
Miss Sword Fairy, dressed in a goose yellow dress, sat cross-legged in the middle, but she was not concentrating on her breathing. Her beautiful eyes blinked and flashed in several directions.
(Not here... or not here yet... where on earth did he go?)
Lu Yuli frowned.
The formation for entering this space from the outside world has been activated. As long as you hold the invitation, you can enter this space.
"It's a little weird."
A voice came into Lu Yuli's ears.
When he turned his head, he saw Bai Xiaoyao, who seemed to be concentrating on breathing, but had opened one eye when no one was paying attention.
In fact, they no longer need to breathe in much spiritual energy, and their main effort should be used on tempering themselves. After all, the next step is to break through the Golden Core realm.
In response to the little demon girl's voice transmission, Miss Sword Fairy replied unhappily: "Of course it's weird. There has been no news for a whole day."
"That's not what I meant."
Bai Xiaoyao seemed to be thinking about something, but didn't say much. The tone of his voice changed: "From the looks of you, you weren't just looking for my brother? Are you waiting for someone else?"
"No."
Lu Yuli curled her lips and refused to admit that she was still secretly observing whether her master showed up.
Nor did she admit that the result made her feel relieved.
Bai Xiaoyao seemed to be lost in thought again. Her beautiful eyes swept across the surrounding peaks and she did not continue transmitting the message.
On the other side, Lu Yuli grasped her message dagger again.
She still received no response.
Although she was able to know that someone was still alive through the gift of the dagger, the fact that there was no news from the other party for a long time still made her look worried and irritated.
After finally getting rid of these thoughts from her mind, her spiritual consciousness flowed into the dagger.
Then, lines of words began to appear on the dagger.
This is a little girl sending blessings to someone.
I don't know if it's useful, but in the past when similar situations occurred, the guy on the other end of the message would always ask her for this.
Xiao Yuli looked at the lines of blessings she had written with satisfaction, then hesitated for a moment and withdrew the one that said "I wish you and the beautiful girl from Jiange who has inherited the amazing sword art and possesses a peerless sword body will fall in love with each other and eventually become a couple."
It seems like the hint is a bit too obvious...
Section 1#Volume 1#Chapter 430 Reasons (3000)
Bai Xiaoyao looked at her best friend with a strange look. She was holding a wooden sword and muttering to herself, doing some unknown things.
I always feel like this girl is doing something shameful, her face is so red...
But she didn't dwell on it too much and quickly looked away.
The sharp-minded little witch could feel that many thoughts were paying attention to her.
There was nothing she could do about it. After all, in today's competition for the Human Immortal Ranking, she was undoubtedly the most eye-catching one.
Throughout the day, the opponents she encountered were all the so-called opponents who had a chance to compete for the top spot in this competition, but in the end, no matter which one of them, she was unable to make a second move.
Now almost everyone present felt that this Saintess of Demon Sect was going to recreate the legend of the Saint Son of Demon Sect and win the top spot in this competition with a crushing momentum.
(If I must say, the original disciple of the Taoist master who had reached the state of incarnation could still fight me...)
Bai Xiaoyao thought casually.
After all, the spiritual power that she had restored in her body with the help of elixirs was not so easy to withdraw, and it was extremely weak.
Unfortunately, the opponent only saw this and thought that he could steadily drain her spiritual power. He arrogantly distanced himself and fell into her trap.
If he had chosen to fight head-on at that time, and used the power of Taoist thunder magic to his full potential, he would not have been defeated instantly.
But there's no point in saying this now.
Bai Xiaoyao felt the spiritual power in her body fully restored and condensed, and she knew clearly that except for one person, no other participant on the field would be able to survive a single move from her.
And now on the field, no one knows how powerful that person is.
Thinking of this, the little witch's face twitched uncontrollably again.
Sister Yuli's experience in today's ranking competition was very different from hers... Not only did she meet two opponents who were in the late foundation building stage, but she also got a bye in one round. She took a round on the Immortal Trial Stage, collected all the benefits, and then left the stage.
Although both were killed with one move, the impact left by strength was not as great as that left by beauty and luck.
This seems to be explained only by luck... Before the competition for the Human Immortal Ranking begins, all participating contestants will integrate a portion of their spiritual consciousness into the Immortal Trial Platform to verify their eligibility for participation, and rely on this connection to gain additional benefits from the Immortal Platform, which will directly determine the opponents in each competition.
That’s why there is a scene where the contestants turn into colorful clouds when they appear on the stage.
Bai Xiaoyao let out a breath softly.
(If I knew where my senior brother was, I wouldn’t stay here and pretend to breathe…)
Her beautiful eyes glanced at the white wrist and paused slightly at the knot-like mark.
The connection of the red rope of cause and effect allowed her to know that nothing had happened to her senior brother, and that there had been no disturbances in the connected cause and effect.
(So my brother is indeed planning something unknown to others, but if that’s the case, there are some things that I find strange.)
(According to what Senior Brother admitted before, the demon chaos was very likely to occur during the Human Immortal Ranking Competition. Although the Human Immortal Ranking Competition has been advanced now, this may not change. Otherwise, Senior Brother would have directly confirmed the date when the demon chaos began.)
(And my brother’s disappearance this time also illustrates this point… My guess is that because the competition for the Human Immortal Ranking was brought forward, my brother had to rush to complete some preparations, so he had to cut off contact during this period… Haha, it could also be the arrangement of Master, that old immortal.)
The little witch curled up the corner of her mouth in a sneer, but her eyes secretly moved towards a peak surrounding the Immortal Trial Platform.
The spectators on that peak were all the major forces in the fairy kingdom’s capital. A solemn and majestic multi-story observation deck was built on the top, inside which sat the real high-ranking officials of the fairy kingdom.
Including the stunningly beautiful empress who had been on the throne for three years.
(If I understand correctly, the demon race will definitely stir up a demon riot during the competition for the Human Immortal Ranking... What is the connection between the demon riot and the competition for the Human Immortal Ranking? Is it just that the demon race wants to create enough chaos? No, this is unreasonable, unless the demon race dares to take action against all the human geniuses who come to the royal city this time, but that will only make the human race strongmen who originally chose to wait and see turn to the side of the Immortal Kingdom, which is not worth the loss.)
(Besides that, what is the Immortal Kingdom planning? When Senior Brother entered the palace, he must have revealed enough information to the Immortal Kingdom. They can’t help but be on guard against the demons attacking at this time... But they are too quiet, even the empress is still sitting in the high tower. If the demons suddenly appear in the city and kill people wantonly, will she be able to protect the people in time?)
Bai Xiaoyao is a smart girl.
Even though she was missing a few key pieces of information, she was able to deduce a lot.
(The Taoist leader was not seen at the Taoist seat...)
(The dozen or so Jianzhou Yuanyings that Senior Brother saved in Qifeng City last time were also not here. Although they came uninvited, cultivators of that level should not have been uninvited...)
(If I were in the position of the empress, knowing that the demons would stir up chaos and would not allow them to slaughter civilians, then what I would need is... the Human King Sword?)
(Some information is still missing. I don’t know the purpose of the demon tribe…)
Just then, a voice interrupted the little witch's thoughts.
"Pass on His Majesty's order, and invite the Demon Sect Saint Bai Xiaoyao and Sword Pavilion disciple Lu Yuli to the Shoufeng Pavilion for a chat."
The Six-Gate Golden Seal wearing a mask with dead leaf patterns slowly stepped out from the void.
… …
In the pavilion built of mahogany, a girl wearing an imperial robe and crown stood in front of a pearl curtain.
Beyond the pearl curtain is the stand built for her, through which the vast scenery outside can be vaguely seen.
"Master Yun, what does Dao Zun say?"
As the empress spoke, in the small pavilion where she was the only one there, an old woman's figure made of clouds and mist appeared behind her.
"Dao Zun said that he already knew."
The Empress frowned slightly.
In the end, he still returned to his cool demeanor: "I understand."
"Your Majesty, don't worry. After all, you are... If the situation becomes critical, the Dao Master will probably still help." Elder Yun consoled.
The Empress shook her head slightly and changed the subject:
"… Elder Yun, do you know why the demon race chose to stir up this demon chaos at this time?"
The old woman transformed from clouds and mist bowed:
"According to what Your Majesty said before, the demon clan's demon concubine returned, and the position of the demon clan's new master was threatened, so he had to stir up this rebellion. Isn't that the case?"
"Yes, but no."
The Empress's face was expressionless: "Even if the Demon Concubine is still in the suppression seal under the Ascension Lake, the time has come for this demon chaos to happen."
It is precisely because the hand cards need to be revealed that there is exposure on the table, and that the evil rat monster that can transform into blood mist appears to attract the attention of the fairyland.
Old Yun remained silent, as if waiting for the girl to answer his questions.
"The new leader of the demon race is trying to take the path to immortality that person has not completed."
An inexplicable sneer appeared on the empress's face:
"The demon tribe has been planning for three years, but they chose to act at this time, simply because they can only act at this time."
"In the first year of my accession to the throne, the Immortal Kingdom was in turmoil due to the disappearance of that person. Although I had the support of the Taoist sect, my throne was not stable. I was not qualified to gather the luck of the clan in the suppression like the demon concubine."
"In the second year, I pacified the chaos and secured my throne, but I still did not have the qualifications."
"And now, I have secured my throne, the Dragon Luck of the Immortal Kingdom has been refined within my body, and I have been recognized by the Human King Sword. I can call upon the power of all living beings in the Immortal Kingdom, so I have some qualifications... But it's still not enough."
"If you want to achieve the same effect as suppressing the demon concubine, either let me sit firmly in this position for ten years, or wait for me to break through the spirit transformation realm one day."
"But they don't dare to gamble on these two conditions."
In three years, the newly crowned empress has pacified the turmoil in the fairyland. If another ten years are given, or if the empress is promoted to the realm of divine transformation, will the demon clan still have a chance to catch the royal city off guard
In just these few days, they almost wiped out the demon formation.
"So, the demon race has a replacement method."
The Empress's eyes looked calmly beyond the pearl curtain and fell on the fairy platform built of fairy jade.
She uttered a voice that sounded like she was mumbling to herself in a trance: "If the immortal souls that the Human Immortal Rankings fought so hard to invite were to bless me now, perhaps it would be enough..."
The way she called herself changed quietly.
The old Yun behind him seemed to show a look of enlightenment.
"I see... That's why the demon race would definitely choose to fight on the Human Immortal Ranking..."
But at this moment, the Empress said something light and airy:
“… As expected, you are not surprised by the demon clan’s new leader’s goal of ascending to heaven in one step.”
Although the words were light, they gave Old Yun a start, and his eyes, which were made of clouds and mist, widened instantly.
