The Swords Gate upper house disciples only had one chance to enter the Demon Ruins every month, none of them wanted to give up this chance. Hence, there were more than a thousand upper house disciples trapped in the Demon Ruins!
They deserved it. The Demon Ruins had always been the training ground for the upper house disciples. Although there were some upper house disciples who lost their lives during the training, there had never been any major incidents. Hence, the Qi Practitioners of Swords Gate did not pay much attention to the Demon Ruins.
It was normal for the upper house disciples to enter the Demon Ruins for training. No one would have thought that the situation would be reversed. The upper house disciples became the prey while the demons became the hunters, hunting the Swords Gate disciples!
Within a hundred miles radius, the upper house disciples were running back and forth, some gathered together to resist the demons while others hid themselves. Waves after waves of demons were sweeping the area, searching for the upper house disciples.
Countless disciples of the Upper House were captured, their hands and feet tied to poles, powerless to struggle. Like pigs, they were carried by two demons into the depths of the Demon Ruins, no one knew where they were sent to.
There were even some upper house disciples who were killed in the midst of resistance!
Tens of thousands of demons swarmed into the Demon Ruins, covering a hundred miles radius. The remaining upper house disciples had less and less space to move around.
"In the ancient times, the humans were lowly, they were like sheep with two legs in front of us demons, they could only be sacrificed and slaughtered! In the past, the sacrificial animals used by us demons were all humans! "
The demons laughed as they swept through the upper house disciples, they struck a blow to the confidence of the upper house disciples who dared to resist.
"Row after row of humans tied to poles, roasted on the fire, greased with oil, roasted until it smells good!"
"Stab them with a knife, fill the basin with human blood, to the spirits of heaven and earth, to the spirits of our ancestors, to let the spirits of our ancestors taste the delicious human blood!"
"These lowly animals dare to rebel and suppress us, it is time to let these animals know who is the true master of heaven and earth!"
….
Zhong Yue, Ting Lanyue, He Chengchuan and the others gathered together, they were constantly being attacked by the demons. Out of the hundreds of people, only less than twenty were left, the others were captured or killed in the chaotic battle.
The remaining tens of people were also injured, their bodies were covered with wounds, even Zhong Yue, Ting Lanyue and He Chengchuan who were the strongest among them, they were almost killed by the mutated demons in a few battles.
The mutated demon corpse that Zhong Yue obtained was too heavy, it was not convenient for him to carry it on his back, so Zhong Yue threw it away in the battle, leaving only the arms of the mutated demon corpse and the two scythes as his weapons.
The two scythes were eight feet long, taller than a person. Although they were not soul weapons, their sharpness was on par. Zhong Yue channeled his soul into them and the scythes moved like the wind, slicing through the flesh of the demons without any hindrance!
However, there were simply too many devils here. In the past, when they were training here, it was difficult to find the traces of variant devils. But now, there were so many variant devils that it was shocking. Almost one in every hundred devils was a variant devil!
Even Zhong Yue had escaped death a few times in the battles with the other mutated demons. Although he had slain a mutated demon, the mutated demons were the lowest level of demons in the Demon Ruins. Their status was even lower than the spider demons. The strength of the other mutated demons were much stronger than the mutated demons!
Some of the other mutated demons had feathers that were made of gold essence, extremely sharp, some had spider webs that were so tough that the scythes would need more than a dozen slashes to cut through. Some had bones that were made of metal, they were like thick and heavy armors, they all had their own strengths.
After these battles, He Chengchuan and the others had witnessed Zhong Yue's strength, the 【Spring Thunderbolt Swords Skill】 had become extremely sharp in his hands, he could kill anyone that stood in his way, demons that stood in his way, he could kill anyone that stood in his way!
Furthermore, Zhong Yue could cast the 【Spring Thunderbolt Swords Skill】 at the same time, he could channel his soul into the scythes, wherever the scythes passed, the demons would fall, he was even stronger than Ting Lanyue who had her soul weapon, it was truly astounding.
However, the situation was too dangerous, the mutated demons were getting more and more numerous, Zhong Yue's prowess was not much use, he was not a match for the mutated demons, hence, they were only surprised, they were more worried about the situation they were in.
"If we don't leave the Demon Ruins, the higher-ups of Swords Gate will notice something is wrong, they will enter the Demon Ruins to investigate."
Ting Lanyue encouraged them, "We just need to hold on for two to three days, there will be Qi Practitioners that will come and quell the chaos."
"Two to three days? I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on for that long. "
He Chengchuan smiled bitterly, he raised his head and looked at the sky, there were groups of eagle demons flying in the sky, their sharp eyes searching for the upper house disciples, he said, "Senior Martial Sister Ting, the demons here are getting more and more, the mutated demons are also getting more and more, we will be lucky if we can hold on for two hours!"
A female disciple sighed and said, "If only someone could escape from the Demon Ruins and report to the two elders."
Zhong Yue closed his eyes and meditated, his soul entered his psyche ocean, he said, "Xin Huo, do you have any way to escape?"
"There are too many low-level demons here, with your prowess, you won't be able to escape."
Xin Huo was very straightforward, he said, "Besides, I can also feel the aura of the demon Qi Practitioners, although they are just small fries, they are still too strong for you. I can feel that there are still some secrets in the Demon Ruins, there are faint ancient auras, it is dark and evil …. "
"Demon Qi Practitioners?"
Zhong Yue couldn't help but shiver, how strong were the Qi Practitioners, to the upper house disciples like them, it was like the difference between heaven and earth, there were actually demon Qi Practitioners in the Demon Ruins, it was indeed very bad!
"Other than the demon Qi Practitioners, there is also the dark and evil ancient aura? Are they stronger than the demon Qi Practitioners? "
"They are much stronger than the demon Qi Practitioners, but these ancient auras seem to be suppressed, they seem to be in hibernation, or they are already dead, there is only a faint aura leaking out from them."
Xin Huo sensed carefully, he said, "I can feel that these demon Qi Practitioners are preparing for a great ritual to awaken these ancient auras, if they really awaken them, it will be fun, it will definitely cause chaos in the Swords Gate! Young man of the Fuxi Celestial Race, if you hand over your body to me, I can take you and escape, but if that happens, I will be exposed, I can only bring you out of Swords Gate and roam the world. "
The little flame said excitedly, "My prowess is not as strong as before, and I haven't found a qualified Xin Huo inheritor, there are still many strong people in Swords Gate that can stop me, so I plan to detonate the gods' souls suppressed under Swords Gate when I escape from Swords Gate! The gods' souls are many times stronger than the ancient auras in the Demon Ruins, they can definitely bathe Swords Gate in blood, and then we can escape …. "
"Handing over my body to Xin Huo is definitely not a good idea!"
Zhong Yue dispelled the dangerous thought, Xin Huo was definitely a hundred times more dangerous than these demons!
"Brat Yue, if you are killed later, I will help you no matter what!" Xin Huo shouted in his psyche ocean.
Zhong Yue pondered for a moment, and suddenly, his expression changed, he whispered, "Senior Martial Sister Ting, Senior Martial Brother He, when we encounter the demons, we just need to put up a little resistance and let them capture us, I have a plan, we might have a chance to escape!"
Ting Lanyue and the others were moved, they could vaguely guess his plan, they looked at each other and nodded silently.
Zhong Yue immediately took down the two eight-feet long mystic iron scythes and buried them in the ground.
Ting Lanyue felt uneasy, she whispered, "Junior Martial Brother Zhong, how far can your psyche reach? Can you really …. "
Zhong Yue shook his head, he whispered, "Silence! The demons are here! "
"There are humans here!"
Sounds that sounded like ghosts wailing and wolves howling could be heard, a group of spider demons discovered them, a few female spider demons shouted happily, "Human little bulls! If you dare to resist, we will kill the human little heifers and leave the human little bulls for you to enjoy! "
He Chengchuan and the other male disciples heard the words, their faces turned pale white, they could only put up a little resistance before they were captured one after another, a mutated spider demon spat out spider webs and tied them up tightly.
"Human little bulls …."
A female demon touched He Chengchuan's face lovingly, she smiled and said, "Eating little bulls during mating is my favorite thing to do!"
The leader of the mutated spider demons warned, "Don't cause any trouble, the elders still want their blood to be used as a sacrifice to the ancestors!"
A few tens of the lowest ranked mantis demons came over, they hung the humans on a pole and marched into the depths of the Demon Ruins.
"Send them to the altar! When the elders arrive, we will sacrifice these two-legged goats to the ancestors of our demon races, awakening the spirits of our ancestors! "
A mantis demon that was probably the leader of the mantis demons said excitedly, "We also need to awaken our common ancestor, Tian Myriad Mother!"
"Tian Myriad Mother?"
On the pole, Ting Lanyue and the others were shocked, Ting Lanyue whispered, "Oh no, these guys are trying to awaken Tian Myriad Mother …."
Zhong Yue asked curiously, "Senior martial sister, what is Tian Myriad Mother?"
Before Ting Lanyue could answer, the leader of the mantis demons smirked and said, "Tian Myriad Mother is the common ancestor of the demon races of the Great Wilderness, she is the god of the demon race! The first son that Tian Myriad Mother gave birth to is the ancestor of the Tian Myriad Demon Race, the second son is the ancestor of the demon hawk race, the third son is the ancestor of the demon fire race … We, the mantis demons, are the youngest sons, our status is lower, but still much higher than you humans. You humans are livestock, our ancestors hunted the humans in the Great Wilderness, especially the human heifers, heihei …. " Especially the heifers of the human race, hehe, after we catch them, we'll strip them naked … "
The leader of the mantis demons pinched Ting Lanyue's cheeks, he smirked and did not notice that behind them, at the battlefield where Zhong Yue and the others were captured, the ground suddenly split open and the two scythes leaped out from the ground, flying close to the ground and following closely behind them!
Unknowingly, the few tens of mantis demons had carried Zhong Yue and the others through the demon race's encirclement. Zhong Yue and the others peeked around, they could see that the demon race was getting smaller and smaller, and in the middle of the Demon Ruins, there was a thick demonic Qi that soared into the sky, it should be the altar that the mantis demons were talking about.
"Die!"
Zhong Yue suddenly shouted, the two eight feet long scythes leaped up into the air, they spun in the air and in a blink of an eye, from the back of the group to the front!
Pu pu pu!
All of a sudden, the heads of the mantis demons that were carrying the scythes flew up into the sky, they were all turned into headless corpses by the demonic blood in their stomachs. At the same time, the two scythes flew back under the control of Zhong Yue's psyche, Shua shua shua shua, the saber rays flashed and the mantis demon leader was sliced into pieces!
Zhong Yue's psyche surged out from his forehead, Shua shua shua shua, the saber rays slashed continuously, he cut off the spider webs that were entangled on his hands and legs, he leaped up and controlled the saber rays to slash at the spider webs on Ting Lanyue and the others' hands and feet, he shouted, "Leave now, we might still have a chance to escape from the Demon Ruins!"
