At the entrance of Zhenming Mountain and on the defensive city, two million Ximen disciples were waiting in formation.
All the elites of the Ximen family came out, their true heritage was revealed, and even the ancestors who had been in seclusion for thousands of years were invited to come out.
However, uneasiness and fear still spread on the defensive city, and no one knew whether they would be able to see the sun tomorrow.
On the city wall, Ximen Yinghao paced back and forth uneasily, looking outside the city from time to time, his eyes full of anxiety.
Thousands of miles outside the city is the default junction between the human race and the Nether Clan. In the past ten thousand years, no Nether Clan warrior has appeared.
But at this time, a group of terrifying Netherworld characters appeared in that place, with unknown intentions and impure motives.
The most serious thing is that the power of the true king released by those people is stirring back and forth in the underworld, oppressing all living beings!
Those people are not ordinary warriors of the Nether Clan, but the true kings of the Nether Clan!
Although Zhenming Mountain is in direct contact with the Nether Clan and the Ghost Clan, it has always been positioned as a low-intensity battlefield!
This is originally a training ground for the Venerables and below. Not to mention the True King, even the Saint will not appear here.
Even if there are Venerables, there are not many of them, and both the enemy and us will maintain a balance of combat power here.
After all, no matter the human race, the Nether Race, or the ghost race, the main battlefield is not here, and the top leaders of each race will naturally not put too much power here.
But today, outside the defensive city, the true king of the underworld suddenly appeared. Something strange happened, and the pressure was huge.
How to make the Ximen family not nervous?
How to make Ximen Yinghao not anxious?
Once the true king of the underworld takes action against the defensive city, who can resist?
At that time, the Ximen family will have only one end, and that is the destruction of the city and the death of everyone!
"Have you notified Zhongzhou?"
Ancestor Ximen looked at the group of true kings of the underworld thousands of miles away, and asked Ximen Yinghao solemnly.
"We have been notified, but something happened suddenly and there has been no response from Zhongzhou."
Ximen Yinghao frowned and said, "Time is so short, and Beiyuan is far away from Central Continent. Even if Central Continent sends the True King to support, it is impossible to arrive immediately. During this period, we can only rely on our Ximen Family to support us alone!"
"There are too many true kings of the Underworld. If we attack quickly, I will be powerless!"
Ancestor Ximen shook his head, sighed again, and said with great confusion, "If there had been only one true king of the Nether Tribe before, I could have resisted it with all my strength, but there were seven more for no reason, and I couldn't have beaten him."
Passed eight true kings!"
Indeed, at the beginning, there was only one true king of the underworld outside the city.
When Patriarch Ximen came over, he was still full of confidence. One on one, who is afraid of whom?
As long as the true king of the Nether Tribe dares to invade the defensive city, he can defeat him and solve the crisis in Mingzhen Mountain without informing Zhongzhou.
But after a while, eight more underworld figures suddenly appeared, one of whom was a half-step true king, and the other seven were all genuine true kings!
At that time, Patriarch Ximen's expression changed drastically, and his confidence instantly turned into despair.
He is just an ordinary true king, and he is not a transcendent true king. How can he rival the eight true kings of the underworld?
"If it comes to that point, our Ximen family vows to coexist with the defensive city!"
Ximen Yinghao puffed up his chest and said with great pride.
"It is the destiny of our Ximen family to guard Ming Mountain forever!"
Ancestor Ximen nodded and agreed with Ximen Yinghao.
However, Ximen Yinghao's brows were still furrowed as he looked at the True King of the Nether Clan outside the city and murmured in his heart: "Could it be that Lu Chen caused the turmoil in the Nether Cave and caused the Nether Clan to send out the True King to take revenge?"
If that were the case, I would not have let Lu Chen enter the Underworld Cave even if I had killed him."
At this moment, thousands of miles outside the city, the nine underworld figures were standing high in the sky, looking everywhere with serious expressions.
The leader is Ming Li, and the other eight are the true kings trained by the Lord of Hades!
He was deceived by King Du and was not sure that Lu Chen was in the River Styx, but believed that Lu Chen escaped using the teleportation magic weapon.
He estimated that Lu Chen had not yet escaped from the Underworld Cave, so he immediately asked the True King beside him to take the lead in leaving the outskirts of the Underworld Cave, blocking Lu Chen's only way back to Zhenming Mountain as quickly as possible.
And he quickly returned to the Nether Nest, and as Mingzi, ordered the garrison of the Nether Nest to dispatch, block the other exits of the Nether Cave, and capture Lu Chen.
He even summoned seven true kings from the Underworld Lord's Mansion and rushed non-stop to the outskirts of the Hades Cave to join the previous true king.
Their meeting place happens to be a thousand miles away from the human defensive city. This is the junction of the Ming clan and the human race, and it is also the only way to Zhenming Mountain!
However, the previous True King took a step ahead. After arriving here, not only was there no trace of Lu Chen, he didn't even see anyone else.
But the true king was sure that he came with all his strength and absolutely believed in his own strength, so he arrived at this place in advance.
Even if Lu Chen used the teleportation magic weapon, he could teleport tens of thousands of miles at most. Even if he fled in the direction of Zhenming Mountain earlier, calculated based on the time difference, it would not be faster than the pursuit speed of his true king!
Therefore, after Ming Li arrived, he chose to believe in the judgment of the true king.
Ming Li was confident about Lu Chen's speed. Although the True King caught up with him too late, there was still a long distance from the Styx River to the entrance of Zhenshou Mountain.
As fast as he can, he will definitely reach here before Lu Chen reaches Zhenming Mountain!
After that, Ming Li did not leave, but stayed here with the eight true kings, waiting for the opportunity!
The Nether Clan has been concentrating on fighting against the Ghost Clan and never attacked Zhenming Mountain, so the Nether Clan has not developed this place, has no city, and has no troops stationed there.
This area is a desolate place for the Hades. Except for a few scouts stationed there, no Hades come here at all.
Previously, the true king wanted to strengthen the walls and clear the country, so he left the scouts in this area to facilitate his operations.
Now, the eight true kings release the power of the true kings together, oscillating in different directions. A radius of thousands of miles is filled with the pressure of the true kings!
As long as someone comes out of the depths of the Hades Cave and enters the range of pressure, they will immediately sense it and can quickly go out to capture and kill them.
This move is mainly aimed at Lu Chen!
If Lu Chen returns to Zhenming Mountain from the Underworld Cave, he will definitely be tricked!
However, several hours passed, and there was still no movement at all. Not to mention that Lu Chen didn't come out from the depths of the Underworld Cave, and there wasn't even a bird.
"It's been so long, even a turtle has crawled out. Lu Chen is not that slow, so why is he still missing?"
Ming Li began to feel restless and a little impatient, "Did Lu Chen notice something and realize that we are waiting for him here and dare not come out?"
"If Lu Chen discovers our pressure, we will also discover him. With eight of us chasing him together, he will definitely not be able to escape!"
The previous true king shook his head and said comfortingly, "So, there is no situation where Lu Chen is aware of us but we are unable to detect him.
Please Mingzi wait patiently, that Lu Chen will definitely come out, and we will definitely catch him!"
