Dai Mengfan had once been Eldest Brother Lin Xuan's disciple. They had been through a fierce battle and knew how powerful it was. She sat up straight and asked, "How many Demon Emperors are there?"
"It should be twelve." Because of the existence of the Twelve Citadel Demon Formation of the Ominous, this was practically the norm.
"As expected." Dai Mengfan's expression became even more unsightly. She had been the Third Senior Sister for so many years. She didn't want to compete for the position of Eldest Senior Brother or Eldest Senior Sister because she didn't want to go to the battlefield again.
A female cultivator with rosy cheeks and a graceful bearing played around with her slender fingers. She smiled. "There's more than twelve of us. There's also the Black Cloud Roar of Thunder Formation. How can those demonfolk be our opponent?"
There were more than ten true inheritors gathered here. In addition to the mounts they brought with them, there were more than thirty existences who had undergone five heavenly tribulations, far surpassing the twelve Demon Monarchs.
So other than Chu Tian, Dai Mengfan, and a few others who had experienced the great battle, the other direct disciples didn't agree with Li Liehuo's words. They even felt that he was avoiding the important and dwelling on the trivial, and didn't want to mention Chao Tianjiao.
Dai Mengfan asked, "Where are the chosen ones?"
"I don't know. The biggest possibility is that he is trapped in the Demon Domain. We must be prepared for this."
Ruan Yaozhu couldn't help but say, "Then we …"
Dai Mengfan shook her head. "Yaozhu, don't say anymore. If the prodigy is really trapped in the Demon Domain, I can only hope that she dies. "If she became a Demon Emperor, that would be too terrifying.
Ruan Yaozhu lowered her head sadly.
Dai Mengfan asked again, "Can we ask for help?"
Li Liehuo asked, "Who should I ask for help from?"
Dai Mengfan was speechless and could only sigh.
Spirit Venerable Guihai never left the Heavens. Unless the Myriad Phenomenon Sect was in danger, he would never take action. The two Sect Masters followed the Grand Sect Master above the Nine Heavens and had their own duties.
The Myriad Phenomenon Sect was not like a traditional sect, which was organized by a master-disciple relationship. Instead, it was governed by the True Disciples. They cooperated and shared freely, and there were almost no restrictions.
But correspondingly, the greater the power. The greater the responsibility. When there was nothing to do, he would peacefully cultivate. When there was something to do, he would shirk his responsibilities. There was no such thing as such a good thing in the world.
Furthermore, it was the responsibility of the Myriad Nature Sect to defend this area. Which of the other sects would be willing to bleed and sacrifice for you?
As for the Desireless Heavenly Palace, there was even less of a need to think about it. If the Demon Domain mobilized the twelve Demon Emperors to attack the city, the other war zones would be left unguarded. They would only order the local sects to take advantage of this opportunity to recover their lost territory, and not go on expeditions. He was being led by the nose by the Demon Domain.
Dai Mengfan asked again, "What about Abandoned City? The prodigies are not here, and the Xuanwu Army is useless. The situation is too disadvantageous. "
Li Liehuo said, "You know that's impossible. Retreating without a fight will not be tolerated by military law! "
"Yeah, I know."
Dai Mengfan smiled bitterly. This kind of desertion would definitely infuriate the Selfless Heavenly Palace. If they ordered them to take back Black Cloud City, they would have to pay ten times the price. The entire Myriad Nature Sect would suffer great losses.
Right now, they were going all out, going all out until both sides were heavily injured. They wanted to kill a few Demon Kings and force back the demonfolk.
The Desireless Heavenly Palace would naturally bestow rewards in the form of resources to support the Wanxiang Sect.
As a result, new true disciples would emerge. There was no lack of geniuses. It was like this in the past.
That was how she became the "third senior sister". She probably would not be so lucky this time. She would not live to see this day come.
It was not cowardice or ignorance. It was just that they had reached this point after so much difficulty. They were not willing to risk their lives anymore.
The two of them chatted among themselves. The elegant female cultivator could not help but say, "Hey, what are you talking about? It's just twelve Demon Kings! "
Dai Mengfan smiled sadly. "Junior sister Kexin. You'll find out very soon. "
Wan Jianfeng suddenly stood up and drew his sword. He said coldly, "Senior brother and senior sister, you've disappointed me far too much. You're boosting the morale of others and diminishing your own. If the demonfolk want to take Black Cloud City, they'll have to ask the sword in my hand first! "
He practised the Heavenly Tome of Sword Control. He was a sword cultivator, and he was most skilled at killing. He did not believe the twelve Demon Emperors and their rabble could be very powerful.
"Hahahaha!" Le Tian slammed the table and rocked back and forth with laughter. "I can't help it anymore. Who wants to bet with me on whether Black Cloud City can be defended or not? Oh right, you can raise the odds and bet on how many of us will die. "
He immediately angered everyone. They all began to criticize him. Soon, it became a dispute among the true disciples, just like in the Direct Disciple Hall.
Pi Yangqiu shook his head. If Lin Xuan was here, they would have reached an agreement long ago. Li Liehuo was not the real "first senior brother" after all. He was fine normally, but he could not control the situation in a moment of life and death. The battle was getting worse and worse.
"Senior brother, I'm skilled in formations. Leave the Roar of Black Cloud Thunder Formation to me!"
"Alright!" Li Liehuo said, "I still need someone to lead the Xuanwu Army."
The hall fell silent. No one answered.
Even the true disciples who had never experienced a battle had basic knowledge. The army had to leave the city and fight the enemy, or even charge at the enemy's formation.
Not only would they lose the protection of the Roar of Black Cloud Thunder Formation, but they would also be easily trapped by the Twelve Citadel Demon Formation of the Ominous. Under the current circumstances, it was very easy for them to die.
Le Tian sneered. Li Liehuo's frown deepened.
At this moment, Ruan Yaozhu raised her hand with a wooden expression.
Li Liehuo ignored her, "That means there's no one. Very good!"
Rumble!
Thunder rumbled from the distant mountains.
"Spring thunder?"
However, there was no lightning when they looked up.
"How can regular thunder travel so far? Is someone undergoing a tribulation?"
This small interlude did not attract too much attention. The thunder grew louder and louder, and the entire Black Cloud City trembled.
"How many tribulations is this?"
Five tribulations!
Whoosh! The spirit turtle raised its head from the lake and looked at the tribulation clouds that were gathering rapidly in the sky. They rolled like a whirlpool, and thunder rumbled.
Li Qingshan broke through to the sixth layer of the spirit turtle very quickly. He did not encounter any bottlenecks at all. After so many years of accumulation, everything came naturally.
As his cultivation skyrocketed, he immediately attracted the tribulation.
The tribulation clouds grew thicker and the surroundings became pitch-black. One could not even see their fingers in front of them. Only the flickering lightning suddenly illuminated the mountains. They were like silent giants looking down at the spirit turtle in the lake.
Strangely, not a single bolt of lightning fell. The tribulation clouds layered over each other, almost pressing down on the mountains.
At the centre of the whirlpool, weapons condensed from tribulation lightning gradually took shape.
Sabers, spears, swords, halberds, axes, battle-axes, hooks, and tridents flickered with lightning, condensing without dispersing. They hung high above Li Qingshan's head.
The scale of this tribulation was actually no smaller than Chao Tianjiao's six tribulations.
At the same time, the five yin demons became restless. Demonic thoughts, endless worries, and the five yin demons blazed.
It was just like Black Cloud City. Internally, the people were unconvinced, while externally, the army was pressuring them. Beset with difficulties both internally and externally, they were in danger.
With a shake of his body, Li Qingshan turned into a demonic god and stood up in the great marsh, standing beside the mountains. He welcomed the sky full of tribulation clouds and spread his arms.
