Dong Yang Valley had been destroyed and had lost its function as a checkpoint. There was no need to defend it anymore.
The four Divine Masters were treating their injuries, and more than 30 Princes had also finished their search and rescue work.
The remaining 20,000 soldiers were recuperating in a corner of the ruins.
Ji Tianxing turned and left the deep pit. He came to Divine Master Hei Yu and said with a serious expression, "Great Divine Master, Dong Yang Valley has become like this. There's no need to defend it anymore.
The Palace Master is seriously injured and unconscious. I'll try to heal him. You don't have to worry.
The ancient divine formation at Tian Long Mountain Pass is about to close. The Demon Army will soon invade Tian Long Mountain Pass. I must go back as soon as possible.
You should lead everyone to leave this place as soon as possible. Either go to Tian Long Mountain Pass to help, or go back to the Central Plains to rest … "
After saying a few words, he bowed to the Divine Masters and was about to leave.
Kun Wu, Fox Princess, Tai Yi, and the others saw him and came to greet him.
They exchanged some pleasantries and asked about each other's recent situation. After chatting for a while, they parted ways.
Ji Tianxing flew up into the sky and rode the Divine Spirit Sword back to Tian Long Mountain Pass.
Although he had consumed a lot of magic power and was very tired, he was worried about the Palace Master.
The situation at Tian Long Mountain Pass and the Palace Master's injuries forced him to support his weak body and rush back as fast as he could.
The return journey was very smooth. He didn't encounter any danger or obstacles.
Eight hours later, Ji Tianxing returned to Tian Long Mountain Pass.
It was already late at night.
The night was dark. There were no stars or moon in the sky.
The biting cold north wind whistled, carrying the cold air of the Northern Frontier. It crossed the Northern Mountain Range and blew toward the Central Plains.
The camp of the Human Race was dark. Only a few lights were lit.
The camp was very quiet. Only a few soldiers and guards were patrolling. It was very cold and desolate.
It was like the omen of defeat and death. It was depressing.
As soon as Ji Tianxing returned to the camp, an imperial guard came to deliver a message, saying that the Emperor had secretly summoned him.
He had a feeling that the Emperor had a secret mission for him, so he quietly rushed to the Commander's Palace.
In the Commander's Palace's meeting hall, the lights were dim and quiet.
After he entered the main hall, he realized that the main hall was empty. Only the Emperor was sitting alone in the main seat.
At this moment, the Emperor was no longer as dignified and dignified as before.
He leaned against the throne with a tired expression, one hand supporting his forehead. His brows were tightly furrowed, appearing to be deeply worried.
Ji Tianxing walked to the front of the throne and bowed silently. After that, he stood respectfully without saying a word.
The Imperial Monarch was silent for a moment before he slowly sat up straight, and he recovered his usual dignified bearing.
He looked up at Ji Tianxing with a deep gaze and asked calmly, "Has Dong Yang Valley fallen?"
Ji Tianxing nodded.
After a moment of silence, the Emperor asked again, "How are the Manor Head and the soldiers?"
Ji Tianxing answered honestly, "The Demon Emperor has a heaven-defying divine weapon called the Extreme Yin Soul Severing Ruler. He has severely injured the Prefecture Master and is now in a coma.
Dong Yang Valley was destroyed, and only twenty thousand of the original five hundred thousand soldiers were left. The Divine Masters and Princes also suffered heavy casualties. "
The Emperor seemed to be mentally prepared and was not too surprised. He just frowned and fell into silence again.
After a long time, he spoke again in a bleak tone, "Even the Manor Head can't do anything to the Demon Emperor. Who else on this continent can stop him?"
Ji Tianxing was silent, not knowing how to answer.
In fact, he felt the same as the Emperor. There was a mountain pressing down on his heart, and he almost couldn't breathe.
After a while, the Emperor said in a low voice with a solemn expression, "Tianxing, there is not much time left. When the Demon Army attacks, the battlefield will shift to the Central Plains.
You don't have to stay here. It's useless. Go back to the Central Plains tonight and make preparations. "
Ji Tianxing understood that the Emperor was arranging the follow-up matters. He was going to give up Tian Long Pass.
He guessed that the Emperor had made such plans and preparations a long time ago.
In the Central Plains, the Emperor must have made arrangements long ago.
After all, it was unrealistic to think that the Tian Long Pass alone could stop the Demon Army.
Ji Tianxing nodded and acknowledged the order. Then, he asked, "Emperor, what about you, the other commanders, and the two million strong army …"
The Emperor waved his hand and said calmly, "This Emperor has made arrangements. You don't need to worry.
Go, go back to the Central Plains and make preparations. The real decisive battle has yet to come. "
Ji Tianxing didn't say anything more. He cupped his hands and said yes, then took his leave.
After walking out of the Commander Palace, he looked up at the dark night sky and the Central Plains in the south. He sighed in his heart, "Even if the Human Army retreats to the Central Plains, so what?
Who can resist the Demon Emperor and the Ancestor Demon God who is about to awaken? Who can resist the Demon Army of 20 million?
The Demon Emperor has been lying dormant for a thousand years, carefully planning this chaos of the Demon Race. He also has the power of the Ancestor Demon God's rebirth. Can the Human Race survive this calamity? "
The answer was unknown, or even negative.
His mood was heavy and oppressive. He was somewhat pessimistic and desperate.
But he couldn't give up resisting. He could only do his best and leave the rest to fate, hoping for a miracle.
… …
Four days later, Ji Tianxing crossed millions of li of mountains and rivers and returned to the Central Plains City.
When he left the Central Plains and hurried to the Heaven Dragon Pass, the Central Plains City was already in a state of desolation and panic.
But now, when he stood in the sky above the Central Plains City, facing the setting sun and overlooking the city, he felt more and more desolate.
He saw that the vast Central Plains City was no longer as bustling and prosperous as it was in the past.
Not a single person could be seen in the streets and alleys. Countless shops and markets were closed. A thick layer of dust and fallen leaves covered the doors, but no one came to clean them.
Most of the buildings in the city were empty. There were no traces of human activity.
There were no more commoners lining up to leave the city. There were almost no human figures.
After all, most of the commoners had already fled the Central Plains City, dragging their families to the south.
On the city gates and walls, there were still many city guards standing guard.
Although they were wearing armor and carrying swords, their attire neat and dignified, their spirits were somewhat dispirited and their morale was very low.
If it weren't for the military order, those city guards would have fled the Central Plains long ago.
Ji Tianxing strolled around the city. After checking the situation of the Central Plains City, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
The once flourishing and prosperous Holy Land of Martial Arts had become such a desolate and empty city.
A moment later, he supported his exhausted body and returned to the Monarch Mansion.
The Monarch Mansion was also empty. There were only two Divine Sages and hundreds of guards standing guard.
Ji Tianxing didn't return to the Tianxing Palace. He went directly to the Imperial Palace.
He entered the Imperial Palace's secret room. He was about to put the Palace Master in the secret room to treat his injuries.
The Palace Master had already woken up. He used a secret sound transmission to say to him, "Tianxing, there's no need to treat my injuries first. We have some things to say to you.
