Just as everyone in West Peak City was busy dealing with the Sky Demon.
More than ten kilometers away, in the direction where hundreds of thousands of Sky Demon were gathered.
Five thousand-meter-long shadows suddenly enveloped the area.
The clouds were torn apart and strong winds blew in all directions.
The huge shadows seemed to cover the sky, shrouding the hundreds of thousands of Sky Demon in darkness.
Boom!
The ground flipped, countless plants flew into the sky, and a huge cloud of dust enveloped the scene.
As the huge Sky Demon landed on the ground, the low-level Sky Demon roared and retreated. Of course, some were squeezed together and couldn't retreat in time. They were directly crushed into scrap metal by the huge Sky Demon.
Roar!
With an earth-shattering roar, the level 6 Great Sky Demon descended.
Countless cultivators and civilians in West Peak City saw this. The atmosphere in the city became even more stifling.
Just like the calm before the storm, the air seemed to become heavy and blocked.
…
Central City, the Celestial Court's Thunder Department.
A few cultivators stood in front of the huge palace gate, looking anxiously into the depths of the gate.
"True Monarch Zi Yang isn't here yet?"
"How long do we have to wait?"
"Hundreds of thousands of Sky Demon have surrounded West Peak City. Even a level 7 Sky Demon has appeared. If we don't wait for reinforcements from the Celestial Court, West Peak City will be finished!"
Facing the anxious cultivators, the guards had helpless expressions. "There's no point in telling us this. Without the permission of the Thunder Department's True Monarch, we can't let you in."
Another guard said, "There's no point in you waiting here. If the True Monarch wants to see you, he'll inform you."
After the cultivators waited anxiously in front of the Thunder Department gate for more than an hour, a cultivator serving the Thunder Department walked out. He looked at them and said, "You can leave. The True Monarch knows that you're causing trouble at the gate. He's not happy. You can leave now."
"We're here to ask for reinforcements. How is this causing trouble?"
"More than 200 million people in West Peak City are under the blade of the Sky Demon. How can we leave?"
The leader, Lan Chengzong, said, "Big Brother, please explain the current situation to True Lord. Hundreds of thousands of Sky Demon have besieged West Peak City, and the Great Sky Demon has also descended today. West Peak City is in danger. Once the city is breached, the situation in the entire northwest region will immediately deteriorate, and the entire human race will be in danger of extinction! "
Lan Chengzong was the representative of the Supreme Sword Pavilion in Central City. He had been guarding the entrance of the Thunder Division for the past few days to seek help from the Celestial Court.
The cultivator who served the Thunder Clan helplessly glanced at them and said, "I know your pain, but it's useless for you to tell me. If the True Monarch asks you to disperse, you must leave. If you don't leave and the True Monarch blames you, none of us will be able to bear the consequences. "
One of them still wanted to shout, but he was taken away by his comrade. As they left the Thunder Division, their faces were filled with humiliation and anger.
Lan Chengzong looked at them and said, "Everyone, the human race is weak, while the Celestial Court is powerful. Therefore, we can only compromise with the Celestial Court. But compared to the safety of the 200 million people in West Peak City, what is our personal honor? "
"Big Brother Lan is right. Compared to the safety of the human race, what is our personal honor?"
"If we can't go through the Thunder Division, let's go to Myriad Immortal Island."
"Even if we have to risk our lives, we must seek reinforcements for West Peak City."
…
West Peak City, in a cultivation room at West Peak Dao School.
Sword cultivators from the Supreme Sword Pavilion were dressed in white. They sat on the ground with their flying swords on their knees, meditating and concentrating.
This was because the sword cultivators of the Supreme Sword Pavilion had started burning incense and bathing today. They would then meditate all day and night.
This was to accumulate energy so that when the battle started, they could unleash 120% of their power to kill the Sky Demon. They were specifically used to deal with the Great Sky Demon that was level 6 and above on the battlefield.
However, once the energy was unleashed, they would be even weaker than before. Their combat ability on the battlefield would be greatly reduced, which was very dangerous.
It could be said that every sword cultivator here had already thrown life and death to the back of their minds. They were the true suicide squad, using human lives to stack the Great Sky Demon.
This was the last resort. Even though they knew that the Sky Demon could be reborn, humans had no other choice but to fight and sacrifice themselves.
Wang Shouxuan looked at the rows of disciples in the cultivation room with a complicated expression. Looking at their young faces, he sighed and thought, "How many of us will be able to return this time?"
He thought of the past, the scenes of generations of Supreme Sword Pavilion fighting against the Sky Demon. Countless seniors, companions, disciples, and students had sacrificed themselves.
He thought of the battle of Kunlun, where 100,000 cultivators fought against the Sky Demon and turned to ashes.
He thought of the battle in the desert, where countless cultivators fought to the death, allowing hundreds of millions of people to successfully evacuate.
There was also the battle of Europe earlier … Humans were defeated, hundreds of thousands of soldiers were sacrificed on the battlefield, more than a billion civilians were massacred, and there were countless tragic stories.
"Is this the fate of humans?"
"Wave after wave, generation after generation of sacrifice."
"For hundreds of years, none of us have surrendered. All of us are united, but now …"
Behind him, Jian Hui had also arrived. "Are we going to start a war with the Sky Demon? I heard that the Great Sky Demon at level 7 and 8 have appeared too. "
"Why are you here?" Wang Shouxuan was surprised. "Haven't you been staying at the Sword Comprehension Tower?"
Jian Hui said, "How can I not be here to fight against the Sky Demon?"
Wang Shouxuan sighed. "It's not your turn yet. Go see the Grand Supreme Elder, he wants you to go. "
Just like the Leiyin Temple and the Sanqing Daoist Sect, Supreme Sword Pavilion also had elders who had reached level 9 before the Tendo distorted and then changed due to the Tendo.
Ever since these elders were rescued, they had been fighting to protect humanity.
Now, there was only one Grand Elder left in the Supreme Sword Pavilion.
Jian Hui said, "Grand Supreme Elder, why are you looking for me?"
Wang Shouxuan thought about it and said, "Jianhui, you are a level-four cultivator. You are outstanding among your peers, but your usefulness on the battlefield is limited. Compared to the battlefield, we need you to inherit the Supreme Sword Court's swordsmanship. If the city falls, you will be the seed we leave behind."
Jian Hui's expression changed. "Then I'll stay, you go."
Wang Shouxuan smiled. "I'm old and have no more potential. As for you, your future is very promising. " He pressed Jian Hui's shoulder and slowly said, "My Master told me the same thing many years ago. He stayed in the depths of the desert and perished together with more than 100,000 Skyfiends. Now, it's my turn to do what he did and you do what I did. "
Wang Shouxuan said, "Generation after generation, this is the legacy of humanity."
Jian Hui's brows knitted together. "This time … … is it really that dangerous?"
Wang Shouxuan said, "The Sky Demons are harder to deal with than before. We have to be prepared for the worst. Retreating is not an option. We need someone to defend the Northwest battlefront. This is the responsibility of the Supreme Sword Pavilion.
But the legacy cannot be broken. When you come back from the elder, go find the people at Dong Hua City. If the city falls, go with them to Dong Hua City. They will take care of you. "
