Chapter 170: War Between Two Races!
“The Demon Race truly is thriving in numbers.”
“According to reports from the Central Region, the Demon Race invading the Human Race has already reached nearly ten billion.”
“But I never imagined there would still be so many scattered Demon Race members within the Demon Domain.”
In the depths of the Demon Domain, a neatly ordered fleet advanced rapidly through the clouds.
Lu Qingyang stood atop a Dharma Ship, watching the occasional Demon Domain tribes that flitted past below.
Deep within his eyes, a cold light surged faintly.
“Pass the word down. The Dharma Ships of every unit are not to engage in battle at will.”
“Our target is the Northern Sea Xuanji Clan!”
“So, do not cause unnecessary trouble.”
“Yes!”
On the ship, Old Huang hastily bowed in acknowledgement.
Lu Qingyang nodded, then turned to Ma Liang.
“Elder Ma, I have observed that although these scattered Demon Domain tribes do not have many transformation-stage great demons…”
“But to be safe, I ask that you and Elder Jun take turns standing guard and conduct high-altitude vigilance.”
Ma Liang, hearing this, respectfully cupped his fists without saying much.
At present, within the Chaotian Sect, aside from Lu Qingyang at mid-stage Void Return.
Only Ma Liang at early-stage Great Vehicle and Jun Moyan at early-stage Soul Transformation had the highest cultivation.
Although the Demon Domain now had far fewer great demons, it still could not be underestimated.
At this moment, directly ahead of the Dharma Ship fleet, over a hundred thousand demon beasts, wrapped with仿生妖傀, were charging madly across the ground.
Within the rolling dust and smoke, one enormous demon body after another presented a highly striking visual impact.
However, though the Demon Domain was vast, smaller than the Central Region, it was still extremely wide.
So at the Chaotian Sect’s marching speed, it would still take several years to arrive.
Meanwhile, within the Central Region.
Demon beasts filled the sky, appearing abruptly within the Central Region, stunning everyone.
But fortunately, the Demon Race’s teleportation location happened to be in the Central Pole Province, where the Human Race’s power was strongest and the cultivation of the entire Prison Dragon Realm was at its most flourishing!
…
“BOOM BOOM BOOM!”
“ROAR!”
“BOOM!”
“ROAR ROAR ROAR!”
Deafening beast roars rang out without end.
As demonic qi clouds filled the sky, covering the heavens above the Central Pole Province.
A demon army like a mountain flood and tsunami came howling from all directions!
The entire Central Pole Province fell into panic.
“Damn it!”
“Does the Demon Race intend to perish together with our Human Race!?”
“They dare to brazenly attack the heartland of our Human Race!”
A figure with an immortal bearing and vigorous aura tore through the air.
It was none other than the Council Lord of the Sect Management Council, Supreme Great Vehicle, Li Tianxuan!
Li Tianxuan looked at the distant demon army endlessly pouring from the light gates in the sky, his face as calm as deep water.
His strength was extraordinary, but even he dared not claim he could easily hold back this billion-strong demon army.
After all, the demon army was far too many.
Moreover, above this rabble.
Several figures thousands of meters tall were eyeing him with predatory intent.
These were the Demon Race’s five top Supremes!
“Damn it! Immediately notify all Supremes of the three hundred great provinces to support the Central Pole Province!”
“We must confine the demon calamity to the Central Pole Province. Not a single demon beast may escape!”
“Otherwise, our Human Race will surely suffer utter devastation!”
Li Tianxuan roared his orders at a Mahayana Venerable beside him.
“Yes!”
That Venerable respectfully replied.
Then, with a flash of his figure, he swiftly formed hand seals, summoning the Venerables.
Seeing this, Li Tianxuan did not relax.
His face grew even darker, like deep water.
Because by all rights, the Human Race’s high-end combat power was not weaker than the Demon Race’s.
It was even stronger than the Demon Race’s.
After all, the Central Region’s three hundred great provinces had three hundred Supremes.
Among them, one third — a full hundred Supremes — were stationed in the Central Pole Province.
By contrast, the Demon Race, aside from having more ordinary Demon Venerables, had fewer than a hundred true Demon Race Supremes.
Yet it was these hundred Supremes who pressed the Human Race so hard it could scarcely breathe.
There was no other reason. It was all because of that Sinful Dragon!
“ROAR!”
Just as Li Tianxuan finished his orders, an angry roar echoed from the distance.
“ROAR ROAR!”
As roar after roar that shook the heavens fell, a sky-shaking might spread from the distance.
It turned out that after the five Demon Race overlords stepped out of the teleportation gates, numerous Demon Race Supremes led their Demon Venerables in landing on the Central Pole Province!
Seeing this, Li Tianxuan knew this battle was unavoidable!
“Orders! All Great Vehicle cultivators of the Central Pole Province’s Sect Management Council, follow me into battle!”
“I will hold off that Sinful Dragon. The rest of you, swiftly surround and kill the remaining Demon Race Supremes and Demon Venerables!”
“By the time reinforcements from the other Venerables arrive, we must drive these Demon Race back to the Demon Domain!”
“Yes!”
“Yes!”
“Yes!”
“…”
As voice after voice of assent fell, Li Tianxuan transformed into a long rainbow, carrying boundless momentum, and charged toward the Demon Race!
At the same time, the other Great Vehicle cultivators soared into the sky, killing their way toward the Demon Race!
“ROAR!”
Ao Ye looked at the charging Human Race cultivators, his blood-red pupils filled with dense bloodthirsty killing intent.
“AHN!”
It let out a long howl at the sky, instantly triggering a phenomenon of heaven and earth.
Streaks of thunder descended from the firmament.
“BOOM!”
“BOOM!”
Bolt after bolt of heaven-shaking thunder fell from the sky, crashing toward a Human Race Great Vehicle.
In an instant, that Human Race Great Vehicle screamed and perished on the spot.
“Damn it!”
Seeing this, Li Tianxuan’s eyes nearly split.
The other Great Vehicle cultivators were even more terrified.
Everyone seemed not to understand why this Sinful Dragon was so strong!
Yet only Li Tianxuan, this Supreme Great Vehicle who had lived nearly ten thousand years and whose limit was near, understood.
That Ao Ye was not a Great Vehicle of this era.
In truth, the other party had already made his name when the Demon Race dominated the Prison Dragon Realm.
To truly speak of his realm, calling him a Supreme Great Vehicle was no longer appropriate.
The other party was actually a… Pseudo-Immortal great demon!
But Li Tianxuan would not retreat half a step simply because Ao Ye was a Pseudo-Immortal.
After all, what was strong about Human Race cultivators was not solely their realm.
“KILL!”
Li Tianxuan bellowed, pulling out a copper bell from his robes.
Instantly, a vast and majestic pressure erupted from within the copper bell, enveloping a range of tens of thousands of miles.
“BOOM!”
In that instant, dozens of Great Vehicle Demon Venerables were covered by the pressure wave.
“Pfft!”
“Pfft!”
In a single clash, two Great Vehicle Demon Venerables burst into dust.
The remaining Demon Venerables’ expressions changed drastically!
“Damn it, is that a Pseudo-Immortal Artifact!?”
“It must be a treasure the Nine Origin Palace left in this realm!”
“Bring it to me!”
Ao Ye, seeing this, flew into a rage. Streak after streak of black flames spewed from its mouth.
The black flames were like black spears.
Carrying destructive power, they blasted toward Li Tianxuan!
Seeing this, Li Tianxuan formed hand seals and hurriedly activated the copper bell. A golden radiance burst forth from within.
Instantly, that black spear was annihilated and dispersed by the golden light.
“Hmph, merely a Pseudo-Immortal Artifact!”
“Do not be insolent!”
Ao Ye roared, no longer holding back, directly crossing the void with his physical body, crushing over.
The Human Race Great Vehicle cultivators dared not be negligent, forming hand seals one after another to resist alongside Li Tianxuan.
This battle was fought until heaven and earth turned dark.
Even in later generations, no one could have imagined that the Demon Race’s fiercest battle upon stepping into the Central Region would be this very first one…
