The Eastern Barren Mountains were located in the easternmost corner of the East Continent. The long winter could last five to six months. But in July and August, it was unusually hot.
In July, the Eastern Barren Mountains were full of flowers and vegetation. It was the hottest time of the year.
At noon, the sun was even fiercer. The demons, who were used to the dark and cold, couldn't stand the sun. This was especially true for the low-level devils. All of them were feeling dizzy and weak from the scorching sun.
At this time, almost all the demons were resting in places where the sun couldn't reach.
Purple Lotus didn't rest. She stood on the top floor of the fortress, overlooking the entire Iron Wall City.
This huge city named Iron Wall City was also the first permanent military fortress built by the demons in the human world. It covered an area of tens of thousands of acres. There were seventy-two fortresses and countless other buildings.
To build the Iron Wall City, countless demons were used. At least tens of millions of low-level demons were killed. It could be said that the Iron Wall City was built on piles of bones.
But this Iron Wall City, which took three years to complete, was truly a magnificent city. The outer city wall alone was thirty feet high. There was a permanent anti-air array that covered the sky above the Iron Wall City.
All the buildings were made of huge rocks and watered by the underground molten iron river. The surface of the buildings was covered with a layer of iron sheet. The entire Iron Wall City was as hard as steel. Even a level ten sacred spell couldn't do much damage to the Iron Wall City.
Looking down from above, the Iron Wall City was iron gray. The buildings were thick and hard, with sharp corners. The pedestrians in the city were all armed to the teeth, and the atmosphere was somber and solemn.
Purple Heart Lotus was quite satisfied with this. Iron Wall City was a war fortress, a huge military camp. There were three smaller cities around the Iron Wall City, forming a triangle around the Iron Wall City. The four cities cooperated with each other and established an indestructible battle formation.
The four cities on the surface were nothing. The real big project was the permanent array set up along the earth veins. It covered an area of tens of thousands of miles. It also established the unshakable foundation of the Iron Wall City.
With the Iron Wall City, they could firmly guard the passage between the two worlds. That would allow the demons to enter the human world continuously.
She believed that no matter who became the commander of the Eastern Wilderness Mountain Range, they would not be able to do better than her. What she liked to do the most now was to stand at the top of the fortress and look down at the entire Iron Wall City.
Her eyes wandered and finally fell on the jade-green pool below the battle fortress. The clear water of the pond was abnormally clear under the sunlight.
This pool led straight to the eye of the sea and was so deep that the bottom could not be seen. It was also the most important water point in Iron Wall City. For this reason, they even built a complicated channel to divert water.
Part of the reason why Purple Heart Lotus decided to build Ironwall City here was because of this pool. Of course, the most important reason was that this place used to be the Tielin Sect, Gao Zhengyang's hometown.
Gao Zhengyang was awe-inspiring and invincible in the human world. The Purple Heart Lotus had also suffered greatly at his hands. As for Gao Zhengyang, of course, he held a great grudge against him. After occupying Gao Zhengyang's old home, Purple Heart Lotus was extremely satisfied.
As for pushing down dozens of mountains, that was nothing at all.
Unfortunately, Gao Zhengyang had disappeared without a trace. He didn't know that his hometown had become Iron Wall City. Purple Heart Lotus had always been a little regretful about this.
During the construction of Iron Wall City, Purple Heart Lotus had been preparing for Gao Zhengyang's appearance. But he didn't dare to come in the end. This made her even more disappointed.
By the time Iron Wall City was completed, this place would be impregnable, and Gao Zhengyang wouldn't dare to come!
Purple Heart Lotus didn't know why, but she suddenly thought of the name Gao Zhengyang. In fact, without Gao Zhengyang messing around, everything went smoothly for her.
The Sacred Race army was also advancing in an orderly manner according to the plan.
Purple Heart Lotus felt that most of the leaders of the human race were cowardly and incompetent. In a few decades, the fighting spirit of the human race would completely collapse, and they would become the vassals of the Sacred Race.
"Master, the Profound Earth Spirit has sent a message." A three-eyed crow standing on the golden leg opened its beak and reported the news to Purple Heart Lotus. This also interrupted her thoughts.
Purple Heart Lotus turned around and returned to her throne. She said to the three-eyed crow, "What does the Profound Earth Spirit want?"
The three-eyed crow tilted its head and seemed to be thinking. It paused for a moment before saying, "He requested communication through a water mirror. It should be something important. Perhaps it has something to do with Gao Zhengyang … "
"Gao Zhengyang!"
Purple Heart Lotus sneered disdainfully. "Alright, connect to the water mirror and see what the Profound Earth Spirit has to say."
A huge water mirror appeared in the empty hall, and the elderly face of the Profound Earth Spirit also appeared in the mirror at the same time.
The Profound Earth Spirit bowed politely to Purple Heart Lotus. "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you."
The two of them didn't have a subordinate relationship, but Purple Heart Lotus was a member of the imperial family and a prince with real power. Although the Profound Earth Spirit was a Sage, his status was much lower. Of course, he didn't dare to be careless.
Purple Heart Lotus nodded indifferently. "Earth Marshal, if you have something to say, just say it."
The Profound Earth Spirit knew Purple Heart Lotus' personality very well, so he didn't beat around the bush. "A few Snake Demon leaders went missing yesterday. Their bodies were found today. Our subordinates examined them and thought that their deaths were very suspicious. I personally went to see their bodies, and they are indeed suspicious. "
"That's it?"
Purple Heart Lotus was a little impatient. There were many experts in the Heavenly Lion Mountain Range, and countless people died every day. What was there to say about the death of a few Snake Demon experts?
The Profound Earth Spirit put on a serious expression again, but he just had to say a lot of nonsense.
The Profound Earth Spirit had lived for seven to eight hundred years, so his skin was thicker than a mountain. He didn't care about Purple Heart Lotus's little mockery. He continued, "The Lion Race has already sent a report that Gao Zhengyang's junior sister, He Feiyu, was active on the battlefield. A few Snake Demon experts should have gone to hunt her down. "
The higher-ups of the Lion Race had already reported about He Feiyu's situation. However, He Feiyu was insignificant, so there was no point in capturing or killing her. Everyone knew that they couldn't use He Feiyu to threaten Gao Zhengyang. If they kept He Feiyu alive, they might be able to bait Gao Zhengyang.
Thus, the Profound Earth Spirit knew that He Feiyu was active on the battlefield, but he deliberately ignored her. Until yesterday, when a few Snake Demon experts who had gone to hunt He Feiyu suddenly died, attracting the Profound Earth Spirit's attention.
As the commander-in-chief, the Profound Earth Spirit personally went to the battlefield and inspected the corpses of the Snake Demon experts. The results of the inspection made him a little apprehensive.
A few Snake Demon experts had been killed with one slash. The Saber Qi wasn't strong, but the lingering Saber Intent was too profound. The Profound Earth Spirit reckoned that even if he suppressed his strength, he might not be able to use such a Saber Art.
The miserable death of the Heaven Rank Mage Snake Qingyu showed the absolute power of the enemy. Just the suppression of his divine sense had stimulated all of Snake Qingyu's vital energy and crushed her into a large pool of blood.
This ability wasn't something an ordinary Ninth Stage powerhouse could do. Although the Lion Camel Mountain had many Ninth Stage powerhouses, none of them were proficient in this kind of power.
After thinking it over, the Profound Earth Spirit decided to report to the Purple Heart Lotus. Gao Zhengyang was too terrifying. If he really came back, he had to find a way to deal with him as soon as possible.
Otherwise, the Profound Earth Spirit would be on tenterhooks even if he stayed in the central tent. It wasn't that he was cowardly, but that he had personally witnessed Gao Zhengyang's might on Flame Island.
Even the Vermillion Bird Saber that could burn the heavens and boil the seas couldn't hurt a hair on Gao Zhengyang's head. Even a Sage assassin who cultivated the Shadow Dragon Secret Technique had been easily killed by Gao Zhengyang.
The Profound Earth Spirit had no idea what the upper limit of such a terrifying powerhouse was. Thus, he didn't even dare to show his face at that time and let Zhao Ban be killed by Gao Zhengyang.
Among the Sacred Race powerhouses stationed in the human world, the Purple Heart Lotus had also suffered at the hands of Gao Zhengyang. Moreover, the Purple Heart Lotus was the commander-in-chief of the human world. He wanted to communicate with her first and see if there was a way to deal with Gao Zhengyang as soon as possible.
For this, the Profound Earth Spirit explained the situation in detail and took out the corpses of the Snake Race powerhouses and transmitted the information to the Purple Heart Lotus through the water mirror.
The Purple Heart Lotus was very cautious when it came to Gao Zhengyang. She had suffered a great loss once and was extremely wary of Gao Zhengyang's craftiness and treachery.
After carefully analyzing the corpses, the Purple Heart Lotus also agreed with the Profound Earth Spirit's opinion. The one who killed them was definitely not an ordinary powerhouse. The Lion Race didn't have such a powerhouse, and even the Barbarian Race didn't have one.
It was true that the enemy didn't use much power. But it was also because of this that they could see their power. The ease with which they killed could be felt even through the water mirror.
The Purple Heart Lotus pondered for a moment and asked the Three-Eyed Crow standing on the tripod, "What do you think?"
The Three-Eyed Crow's three crimson eyes turned at the same time and said thoughtfully, "Gao Zhengyang's actions are unpredictable and his Martial God is unfathomable. We can't find any clues from the corpses. But combined with He Feiyu's situation, there's a 70% to 80% chance that it's him. "
The Profound Earth Spirit nodded and said seriously, "Gao Zhengyang is enough to change the situation of the battlefield. We must do our best to deal with him as soon as possible."
The Purple Heart Lotus expressed her agreement, which was rare. "The Earth Marshal is right. Gao Zhengyang is a great threat and we must get rid of him as soon as possible. "
"Your Highness, I suggest that we carry out the Sun Slaying Plan immediately."
The Profound Earth Spirit suggested solemnly.
The Purple Heart Lotus frowned and didn't say anything. The Sun Slaying Plan was a set of plans specifically designed to deal with Gao Zhengyang. They wanted to use all methods to kill Gao Zhengyang as soon as possible. They had also made many preparations for various situations.
If they carried out the Sun Slaying Plan now, all of the Sacred Race's hidden forces would be mobilized and cooperate with them to kill Gao Zhengyang.
The problem was that they hadn't confirmed whether Gao Zhengyang had returned yet, so it was too early to carry out the Sun Slaying Plan. If Gao Zhengyang hadn't returned by then, not to mention the forces that would be wasted. She would definitely be questioned and mocked.
The Purple Heart Lotus wasn't afraid of failure, but she couldn't bear the humiliation.
She thought for a while and said, "We haven't confirmed it yet, so don't be anxious. If it's really Gao Zhengyang, he will definitely meet Shi Han. Contact the Lion Race and confirm it as soon as possible. "
The Profound Earth Spirit couldn't convince the Purple Heart Lotus, so he was a little regretful. However, this was all he could do. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll confirm his whereabouts as soon as possible."
After closing the water mirror, the Three-Eyed Crow laughed strangely and said, "This old worm is afraid!"
The Purple Heart Lotus looked at the Three-Eyed Crow and said, "You still hate him for not saving you, right?"
The Three-Eyed Crow said with a gloomy expression, "Of course I remember that coward. However, even if he had helped me on the Blazing Island, he wouldn't have been able to change the outcome. "
The Three-Eyed Crow had been killed twice by Gao Zhengyang, and it was all thanks to Gao Zhengyang that he had turned from the Devil Race's Sect Master into this wretched state. When he thought of this, he couldn't control his intense hatred.
The Purple Heart Lotus laughed. Zhao Ban's remnant soul was attached to the Three-Eyed Crow, but he was still able to grit his teeth. This was quite interesting.
Now that Zhao Ban's life was in her hands, Purple Heart Lotus didn't care about what Zhao Ban thought. However, considering that Zhao Ban was resourceful and had an exceptional understanding of the human world, she restrained her frivolous attitude and said, "If it's really Gao Zhengyang, do you think he did it on purpose?"
Zhao Ban shook his crow head and said, "The facts tell us that Gao Zhengyang is very sinister despite his young age. He is also cold and heartless, and he doesn't care about anyone's affairs. Such an expert has almost no external flaws. So, don't think about using this matter to make any judgments! "
"Gao Zhengyang isn't completely emotionless!"
The Purple Heart Lotus didn't agree with Zhao Ban's judgment. She said, "He has been actively trying to unify the seven countries and establish a powerful alliance. This proves that he still considers himself a human and wants to fight the Divine Race to the end! Also, the sect, Yue Qingxue, and the others can restrain him! "
Zhao Ban couldn't help but shake his crow head and said, "I think he's just doing this for fun, not for the greater good of the human race. This person is heartless to the core! "
The Purple Heart Lotus didn't agree. "Even gods and devils have feelings, let alone a mere mortal like him. There's no need to discuss these details. As long as we can confirm the location where he will appear and make preparations, we can invite the Ancestor God to descend. No matter how powerful he is, he will definitely die. "
Gao Zhengyang's strength was unfathomable. He could only be killed if he was surrounded by many Divine Race experts. However, Gao Zhengyang was extremely vigilant, and they were in the human world. Any meticulous arrangements could lead to problems.
The wise demons had repeatedly deduced that only by inviting the Ancestor God to descend would they be able to kill Gao Zhengyang with absolute power.
The Purple Heart Lotus was also in favor of this plan. Any plan could fail. Only absolute power could guarantee the success of the plan.
However, the Ancestor God had to break the human world's spatial barrier and avoid the interference of the human world's laws. It was extremely troublesome to carry out the plan. They had to make preparations in advance and then invite Gao Zhengyang in. Only then could they ensure success.
Moreover, the sage-level experts were very sensitive to their own fortunes and misfortunes. After setting up the killing trap, they had to prevent Gao Zhengyang from sensing it. This was extremely difficult.
Therefore, there was a detailed plan to slay the sun.
Although the demons were powerful, they had to use all their strength to carry out this plan.
However, if they could really kill the number one on the Heaven roll, Gao Zhengyang, it would definitely be a huge blow to the human race's morale. It would also greatly boost the demons' morale.
It would also change the strategic situation so that the upper echelons of the human race would no longer have any scruples. In the following battles, the demons would definitely be able to sweep through them smoothly.
Purple Heart Lotus tried her best to kill Gao Zhengyang, not only for her own revenge, but also for the demons' overall situation.
Thinking of the huge benefits that killing Gao Zhengyang would bring, Purple Heart Lotus could not help but feel excited. She took out the plan and discussed it with Zhao Ban.
Although Zhao Ban knew about the plan, it was his first time learning about its contents. He was also rather impressed by the plan's meticulousness.
However, after looking at the entire plan, Zhao Ban was somewhat disappointed. The plan was very thorough, and it was also made according to Gao Zhengyang's character and style of doing things. It seemed like there were no problems, but Zhao Ban felt that it was still lacking.
Most importantly, the entire plan was made with the Demon God descending as the center. It seemed like as long as the Demon God descended, all problems could be easily solved.
However, Zhao Ban had doubts. What if the Demon God descended and failed to kill Gao Zhengyang?
Clearly, the many wise demons would not think so much. It would be ridiculous if the Demon God could not kill Gao Zhengyang with his powerful God-level power!
Every demon had incomparable confidence in the Demon God.
However, Zhao Ban was not a true demon, and he did not really believe in the Demon God. After seeing Gao Zhengyang's endless tricks, he trusted his own judgment even more.
Gao Zhengyang's intelligence was not that great, but he was at most meticulous. He was still far from being able to strategize and win a battle from a thousand miles away! The most brilliant thing about him was that he always hid a portion of his power.
When faced with a problem that he could not solve, he would use force to overcome it.
There were no problems with the Fire Nation's royal family's plan in the battle of Blazing Island. The only problem was that he was not strong enough, and he could not kill Gao Zhengyang.
Zhao Ban weighed the pros and cons, and he still voiced his doubts. He and Purple Heart Lotus shared the same honor and disgrace. If Purple Heart Lotus was unlucky, he would be dead. This was not a question of whether or not he could take revenge!
After hearing Zhao Ban's thoughts, Purple Heart Lotus was stunned. She felt that it was unbelievable. Even the Demon God could not kill Gao Zhengyang in the lower realm. What kind of joke was this?
Zhao Ban also knew that Purple Heart Lotus could not accept this. He advised, "Before considering victory, consider defeat first. I have fought with Gao Zhengyang many times, and I lost every time. There is only one reason for my defeat, and that is that I underestimated his power. To avoid repeating the same mistake, I hope that Your Highness will consider it carefully. "
Purple Heart Lotus thought about it seriously. What Zhao Ban said was not unreasonable. What if the Demon God could not kill Gao Zhengyang? It was necessary to make some preparations in advance!
In any case, they had to gather all their forces this time, so it was good to make some preparations. She asked, "Do you have any good suggestions?"
"I only hope that we can use more forces, find a few more Saint-level experts, and prepare two powerful divine weapons …"
Zhao Ban said, "We can't just consider Gao Zhengyang. His woman, Hong Ri, is also a Saint-level expert. Also, the dragon woman, Formless and Formless, and so on. Gao Zhengyang is a cunning person, so we have to be careful! "
Purple Heart Lotus nodded, agreeing with Zhao Ban's opinion. Indeed, Gao Zhengyang's women could not be underestimated. In the past two years, there were a few more Saint-level experts in the human realm, so they should be allowed to join in.
The next afternoon, Earth Profound Spirit sent a message, confirming that Gao Zhengyang had indeed arrived at Lion Camel Mountain.
After receiving the news, Purple Heart Lotus immediately issued an order. The huge demon forces were quickly mobilized.
