Since the two secret treasures, the White Dragon Cauldron and the Full Moon Mirror, fell into the hands of demons from the demon world, Jiu Chi and Xiao Xu made full use of the palace's manpower to let the news of the loss of the secret treasures out.
This news caused a sensation in the world of cultivation, and also attracted the attention of leaders in the world of cultivation.
Now the only way to prevent the demon king from being born in the world of cultivation is to strictly guard the mysterious tower and maintain peace between the world of cultivation and the world of demons by winning the decisive battle between the world of cultivation and the world of demons.
The Mysterious Tower is surrounded by mountains in the Tianlun Mountains northwest of the imperial city. Birds and animals live here and the trees are lush, giving people a sense of tranquility.
However, in recent days, the past tranquility has changed and the atmosphere has become tense, because all major cultivation sects have sent personnel to guard the mysterious tower day and night to prevent monsters from the devil world from coming to rescue the devil king.
Xuanji Pagoda is not very high, but its shape is very peculiar. It is not like ordinary pagodas. It has a hexagonal body and gradually becomes smaller from large to upward.
Surrounding the tower is a ring road, and outside the ring road is the Huanshui River. The water in the river is full of spiritual energy, and evil spirits who fall into it will be instantly wiped out.
There are six ring roads, separated by six rivers, and each ring road is connected by an organized bridge.
These days, each ring road is guarded by people from different cultivation sects, and even the open spaces and shades of trees in the outermost ring are guarded.
These cultivators are either sitting upright, standing upside down, or hanging in the air. Some are holding magic weapons, some are hanging magic weapons on their bodies, and some are offering magic weapons in the air. They are all in postures that are most conducive to quickly entering the battle.
Their magic weapons are different, such as swords, guns, swords, halberds, sticks and hammers. The most common ones are owned by cultivators with low cultivation levels. Those with higher cultivation levels use magic weapons, Buddhist beads, whisks, wooden fish, etc.
Those with the highest level of cultivation do not use magic weapons, because they can use even ordinary things for their own use.
The cultivators guarded the Xuanji Tower for several days, but no demons came to attack, and the water in the Lianshui River was calm.
Everyone began to doubt whether the news of the demon invasion was true or not, and they were all a little careless and even depressed.
At this time, the originally sunny and sunny weather began to darken, dark clouds surged in the sky, and then a strong wind suddenly blew up, causing the weak cultivators to stagger around, even fall over and roll over. The crowd became noisy, and some people were swept into the river by the strong wind.
, fluttering endlessly.
After a while, layers of black clouds covered the sky, and the strong wind gradually subsided, but it obviously did not mean that the weather was changing and rain was about to come, so the cultivators were on heightened alert.
At this time, countless wheel-shaped hidden weapons flew from the front side of the Mysterious Tower, cutting off the head of the outermost cultivator, revealing a large scar at the mouth of the bowl, with blood gushing out like a fountain.
At this time, a group of demon soldiers came over. Seeing that they had succeeded in the sneak attack, they all looked up and laughed.
At the moment when the demon soldiers are getting carried away.
"It's too early for you to be happy!" A deep and loud voice like a bell sounded in the air, and a white-haired monk with a fleshy face flew out from the crowd.
Although this man is dressed as a monk, he has short, silvery hair.
The monk stopped in front of the demon soldiers, stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Haha, haha, this is just a puppet made by the old monk. It looks like a real person, but it is not a real person."
The cultivator behind asked, "Could it be that you are the puppet master who has been hiding in the world of cultivation for many years - Wan Shikong?"
The white-haired monk said, "It's exactly me. I didn't expect that I have been living in seclusion for many years, but there are still people who remember my good name!"
At this time, a cultivator said angrily, "I heard that you use human sacrifices to make puppets and then talk about your good reputation. You are really shameless!"
It was really a stone that stirred up thousands of waves, and the crowd was excited after hearing the words.
The white-haired monk shook his head and said, "Now I no longer use human sacrifices to refine puppets, but instead use puppets to sacrifice living people."
He pointed to the fallen headless corpse and said, "This is my masterpiece, it looks exactly like a real person, with flesh and blood, and it can be mistaken for the real thing!"
Everyone marveled, and their sighs could not be heard without stopping.
At this time, the leading demon general had recovered from his daze and shouted, "Stop being so verbose, you guys, come on."
All the demon soldiers rushed forward, and after a cry of mourning, they all turned into blood.
The demon soldiers behind all showed fear and stood still.
At this time, a young man with disheveled hair and a black face and bloody lips flew out from the crowd and said, "My demon-slaying formation is indeed effective!"
A cultivator behind him said, "Isn't this the bloodthirsty evil king, Helian Batian?" The young man cupped his hands and said proudly, "I didn't expect that so many people know my nickname!"
Some cultivators said, "The evil bloodthirsty king is as thirsty as life. He specializes in blood cultivation and the evil method of harvesting yin and replenishing yang. He is extremely talented and an unparalleled master. He has hurt countless lives and ruined the reputation of countless girls." He is actually a danger to the world of self-cultivation. Let’s work together to eliminate him today to avoid future troubles!”
Helian Batian raised his head and laughed when he heard this and said, "That's wrong. The method of blood cultivation is to eat the blood of chickens and dogs in the early stage, and then suck the blood of humans, but it is also the blood of evil people. In the later stage, it can suck the blood of demons, dragons, and more. As for the divine blood, the blood-transforming formation I have carefully designed is specifically designed to collect demonic blood. Those things about collecting yin and replenishing yang are all nonsense."
At this time, a cultivator said, "This lewd and evil thief, please don't listen to his words. Kill him to eliminate harm to the cultivation world!"
The crowd was excited and flocked to Helian Batian, but he remained unmoved and felt contempt in his heart, "Just because you ants want to kill me, go home and cultivate for another two hundred years."
Everyone was moved when they heard this and took half a step back.
Suddenly, a monk flew out of the crowd and blocked them in front of them.
Everyone was shocked again. These two people were Master Zhiguang from Foguang Temple and Master Xuanzheng from Fuyunmen. Both of them were Taishan Beidou in the world of cultivation. They were the real initiators of this operation.
Master Zhiguang pinched the Buddha with one hand and performed Buddhist rituals with the other, "Everyone, please calm down. Although Wanshikong and Helianba were evil, they have now corrected their evil ways. The purpose of inviting them here is to slay demons together and contribute to the world of cultivation." , both of them are unparalleled heroes, I dare to ask you, who can compete with one of them?"
Everyone was silent, Master Xuanzheng put the fly whisk on his shoulders and said, "Since no one can surpass these two people, then we should unite as one and deal with the monsters in the devil world together!"
One person in the crowd shouted loudly, "Let's work together to eradicate the evil spirits!" Hearing this, everyone shouted together, "Work together as one to eradicate the evil spirits..."
At this time, all the demons had also learned the lessons of death many times by entering the Blood Transformation Formation, and bypassed the Blood Transformation Formation to charge towards the Mysterious Tower.
The barrier in the outermost ring was broken through by the demonic army. The disciples in the inner ring were stronger. Countless demonic armies were driven into the river and turned into smoke.
A black wind blew up, and many cultivators with weak magic power were blown down or fell into the river and struggled.
As the black wind gradually subsided, four ferocious monsters appeared. They were the Four Great Demon Lords, the Blood Demon of the East Ming, the Enchantress of the West Ming, the Dark Demon of the South Ming, and the Xuanji Demon of the North Ming.
The leader of the Ximing Enchantress is full of illusions and transformed into a young girl. She walked gracefully and said softly, "Poor humans, don't resist in vain. You borrowed the power of the gods to seal us many years ago. Demon Lord, it’s time to settle this account!”
Several cultivators who thought they were profound in Taoism heard this and flew out to kill Ximing Enchantress, but were enveloped in a ball of black light and turned into black charcoal.
Everyone was shocked. Master Zhiguang, Master Xuanzheng, Wan Shikong, and Helian Batian immediately flew out to block the Four Demon Leaders.
This creates a battle situation between soldiers and generals. Master Zhiguang fights against the most powerful Demon Queen of the West. With the help of Buddhist magic weapons, the two are equally powerful.
Helian Batian and Dongming Blood Demon are both blood cultivators. Although humans and demons have different paths, the source of their magic is from the same lineage, so it is difficult to distinguish between superior and inferior.
Xuanzheng Zhenren has made great progress in cultivation in recent years, and is comparable to his master Daowu Zhenren. He is also able to fight against the ice magic of Beiming Xuanji Demon.
Wan Shikong's puppet technique, which controls the puppet, is so airtight that it is difficult for opponents to damage his body. The dark magic of Dark Demon seems to have difficulty working on the puppet.
The battle of wits has entered a stalemate stage, and the cultivation world has a slight upper hand. If nothing unexpected happens, it can completely defeat the opponent and make the demon world's rescue plan fail.
