"The smoke of war is rising everywhere and the flames of war are incessant. I wonder when the war will stop."
Ling Xian sighed. He knew that the demonic house was serious this time. Either they would completely fail, or they would dominate the continent.
Before either result is revealed, there was no way they would stop fighting.
"Thank you, Senior. You saved me from danger."
The leader walked up to thank him. Other than gratitude in his eyes, there was also respect.
With only a few moves, he suppressed a seventh leveled cultivator. Who wouldn't be afraid of such a powerhouse?
"There is no need to thank me. I didn't help to save you." Ling Xian waved his hand. If it weren't for the fact that the demonic house held a grudge against him, he wouldn't have gotten involved.
"No matter what Senior's reason is, the result is that you saved the three of us. We should thank you for that."
The man's expression was serious. "I owe you so much. If there is anything I can do for you in the future, please tell me."
Hearing this, the other two expressed their stance as well. They were willing to sacrifice their lives for Ling Xian without hesitation.
"Alright, let's talk about the Red River Valley." Ling Xian changed the topic, "Is that one of the battlefields?"
"Yes. Though there are battlefields everywhere, there are only ten of the largest ones. The Red River Valley is one of them."
"That place is strategically important. Therefore, the war is also very intense."
"A few days ago, there was news that the demonic house has sent reinforcements to the Red River Valley in an attempt to defeat them."
"After I received the news, I came with the Supreme Headmaster's decree."
The man opened his mouth and gave a brief explanation.
"The Supreme Headmaster of Taichu only sent you three?" Ling Xian frowned. The three of them were all sixth leveled cultivators. In a war like this, they could only play a small role.
"There are too many battlefields. Though the Holy Land of Taichu has many powerhouses, they have all been sent to the 10 battlefields. We don't have any extra strength."
The man smiled bitterly. "However, the Supreme Headmaster gave me a decree that can stop the attacks of a seventh leveled cultivator."
Hearing this, Ling Xian shifted his gaze to the decree that was floating in midair. His eyes flickered with surprise.
The decree was shrouded in divine light, and the Daoist Rhymes circulated. There was a fiery red character engraved on it: Defense.
This character contained the Dao of Heaven and Earth and the truth of the universe. Ling Xian exclaimed after seeing it.
"No wonder he's the Lord of the Holy Land of Taichu. I can see how extraordinary he is from the word 'Yu'."
Hearing this, the man and the others revealed a smile, as if Ling Xian was praising them.
"Other than the Holy Land of Taichu, didn't the other forces send reinforcements?" Ling Xian asked.
After all, the Red River Valley is very important. We can't let the Demon Sect take it, "the man said after a moment of hesitation.
"I hope so. This war concerns the entire continent." Ling Xian softly sighed. After a moment of silence, he decided to head to the Red River Valley with the man.
At this moment, the Demon Sect could already be seen as the Extraterrestrial Demons, and the Extraterrestrial Demons were the common enemy of the entire universe.
Though Ling Xian wasn't sure what the sky demons were planning, he knew that once the Xuan Wu Continent falls into the hands of the sky demons, the consequences will be dire.
At that time, even if he left the Black Tortoise Continent, he would not be able to remain unscathed.
"Oh well, let me contribute a little." Ling Xian sighed and his expression turned determined.
This caused the man to be delighted, and he said, "Senior, do you intend to attack?"
"I have no other choice." Ling Xian grinned, "Lead the way. I will go with you to the Red River Valley."
...
From the moment the Demon Sect officially declared war on the Black Tortoise Continent, the Red River Valley became one of the most important battlefields.
This was because it was located in the extreme west of the Black Tortoise Continent. It could be used to attack and defend.
Other than its excellent location, the Red River Valley also possessed a special poison. If it was refined, it could be used as a weapon to win.
Sadly, nobody knew how to refine it. Therefore, the Red River Valley had always been neglected.
However, according to the scouts hidden within the Demon Sect, the Demon Sect had the method to refine the poison.
In other words, once the Demon Sect takes over this place, they can refine the poison. When that happens, all the forces will be in danger.
Therefore, the Red River Valley became the most intense battlefield. Both sides continued to fight, and blood flowed without end.
Slowly, the river outside of this place was dyed red with blood, and it became the Red River Valley.
Right now, the giant Sun was hanging high in the sky, shedding down an infinite amount of light. However, the light could not disperse the coldness and blood.
Far too many people had died. Since the Demon Sect declared war, all the forces had sent at least 100,000 people to the Red River Valley. But now, there were less than 30,000 people left.
The death of 70,000 people turned this place into a true hell. Broken limbs and bones were everywhere. The blood and rotting corpses created a special smell that was nauseating.
The bloody scene was even more difficult to look at. Normal people would feel their legs turn to jelly when they saw it.
However, to the 30,000 people who survived, this was nothing.
They were already numb to it. There was only one expression on their faces – calmness. Absolute calmness.
It was the kind of calmness that only appeared when they were used to seeing death and their hearts were dead.
Currently, 30,000 people formed into battle formations. Led by 12 seventh level powerhouses, they stood proudly outside of the Red River Valley.
Before them was a demonic aura and a murderous intent.
Though there weren't many of them – only a few dozen of them – every single one of them was an elite. Also, the Demon Sect used some unknown method to make them feel no fatigue or pain. They would not fall until the last drop of blood was shed.
In this way, they had become killing machines that could fight against a thousand enemies.
The leading Grand Supreme Elders were even more terrifying. Often, two or three Dao Reasoning realm cultivators were needed to fight against one of them.
This was also why the Demon Sect could fight against all the major forces. Otherwise, no matter how many powerhouses there were in the Demon Sect, it was impossible for them to fight against an entire continent.
"It's time to see blood again. I wonder when it will end …"
On the side of the alliance, a man in white sighed softly. His handsome face was full of worry.
Every time they fought against the Demon Sect, the alliance had to pay a huge price. It couldn't be helped. Those people were too terrifying. It was not an exaggeration to describe them as monsters.
"I wonder how many people will survive this time." The man in white sighed.
"Don't be so sentimental. If you want more people to live, you have to fight!"
A man in black said. He looked at the Grand Supreme Elders of the Demon Sect and shouted, "Come and die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he took the lead and charged out!
The alliance also charged out. Instantly, murderous intent shot into the sky and shocked the world.
The flames of war rose again. The alliance was unafraid of death and fought the Demon Sect.
Yet after merely one exchange, the alliance began to suffer casualties.
The elites of the Demon Sect were far too strong. Not only were their cultivation levels high, but their battling abilities were also extremely powerful. They were like Heaven's Favorites that could look down on others of the same level.
Therefore, the alliance could only use the tactic of numbers. It was the same for the battle at the top.
Though the Demon Sect only had five Grand Supreme Elders, they were not at a disadvantage. In fact, they were fighting with ease.
Just as the two sides were fighting, Ling Xian quietly arrived. The moment he stepped in, he frowned.
