(It's the end of the year. Another year has passed. I've already gotten used to living without money.)
The two majestic gates were over a hundred meters tall and incomparably heavy, as if they were two ancient giants standing tall, guarding the earth.
Chen Zong, Hua Wenjun, and Hua Wenqing strode forward, solemnly and solemnly walking through the ancient giant-like door under the gaze of numerous cold and sharp gazes.
As far as the eye could see, the street was incomparably wide, like a square. The ground was paved with huge brown stone slabs that were a few meters long and wide. They were constantly emitting traces of heat. This kind of stone slab was cast from volcanic rock. It was hot by itself, and after being cast, it was incomparably hard.
The buildings on the left and right sides were black and red, giving off a dignified feeling. It was as if they were constantly reminding everyone that this was the Demon Suppressing Fortress, the first line of defense against the invasion of the Blue Waves Continent by the Demon Race and underground monsters. It was also an incomparably important line of defense.
On the wide streets, pedestrians came and went. Chen Zong also discovered that everyone here was a cultivator, and at least had the strength of a pseudo Transcendent Realm.
Seven Star, Eight Star, and Nine Star Realm cultivators could be seen everywhere. There were also many First and Second Extremes, and some Third Extremes. Even Extreme Mortal Realm cultivators could be seen everywhere.
No matter what kind of cultivation or strength they had, each and every one of them more or less carried a baleful aura. Chen Zong and the other two were different. The moment they stepped into this place, they felt out of place, as if they were three drops of clear water in a pool of muddy water.
Many gazes were focused on the three of them. Some were indifferent, some were mocking, and some were curious. There were also some gazes that fell on Hua Wenqing's face with blazing eyes, as if they wanted to strip her naked. Desire burst out from the depths of their eyes, making Hua Wenqing both embarrassed and angry.
Hua Wenjun's figure flashed and blocked in front of Hua Wenqing. He frowned and looked displeased.
"Get out of the way." A ferocious and overbearing voice rang out. At the same time, a formidable killing intent surged forward, causing the bodies of Chen Zong's team of three to involuntarily tighten. They felt their hairs standing on end. This was a natural reaction of their bodies, a form of self-protection.
There was a scar on his face that extended from the corner of his left eye. The middle-aged man with a fiendish expression walked in front of Hua Wenjun. A terrifying baleful aura emanated from his body, as though he was a ferocious beast baring its fangs and brandishing its claws.
This middle-aged man with a murderous aura had a sneer on his face. His ferocious eyes fell on Hua Wenjun's face, brimming with killing intent. "Rookie, hand over the little beauty behind you. Let me have some fun. If I'm happy, I might even take care of you outside the fort."
A burst of laughter sounded from the surroundings.
"She is indeed a … what 's-his-name little beauty."
"Idiot, I'm the one who's seductive …"
"If Fourth Master Han hadn't made the first move, I would have made my move."
All sorts of malicious voices rang out one after another. Every one of them was filled with a thick Evil Qi. The aura they emitted made it clear that they were all Extreme Mortal Realm warriors.
"You want to die?" Hua Wenjun's every word was filled with shocking killing intent. His eyes became dark and deep, like a spinning vortex that absorbed all light. It contained shocking ferocity, causing the scarred middle-aged man's face to freeze, and he felt a chill run down his spine.
It was as if he would be killed if he continued like this. Soon after, a cold smile appeared on his face. He was only at the fourth level of the Extreme Human Realm. Perhaps at his age, he could be considered a top genius, but so what? He was just a flower in a greenhouse.
On the other hand, he was a Demon Hunter. Moreover, he was not alone.
With a change of mind, Fourth Master Han didn't have any intention of retreating. Instead, he took a step forward. A terrifying baleful aura spread out, as if a demon was howling.
"Hand it over, or the consequences will be tragic." Fourth Master Han threatened. His body trembled, feeling as if his body was being torn apart by an invisible sword. He was extremely shocked and couldn't help but take three steps back. His expression was uncertain as he scanned the surroundings. Finally, his gaze landed on Chen Zong.
This aura was indeed emitted by Chen Zong. His eyes were sharp and flashed with a terrifying cold light, as if they could pierce through Fourth Master Han's soul.
A chill emerged from the depths of Fourth Master Han's soul, freezing his entire body.
Even though Fourth Master Han had hunted many demons, and his cultivation wasn't weak, at this moment, he felt as if he was facing a powerful demon for the first time.
At this moment, a strong icy aura blew over like the cold wind from the extreme north, causing everyone to involuntarily shrink their bodies. Those Demon Hunters who were watching the show with ill intentions all had a drastic change in their expressions. They were extremely shocked.
It was as if a mouse had seen a cat.
Chen Zong was also alarmed. His hair stood on end, and his muscles tightened. His tyrannical strength was like a long river flowing endlessly. The Red Jade Sword at his waist was also trembling. His five fingers loosened, as if he could pull out the sword at any time and unleash a powerful attack.
Hua Wenjun's body was tense, and his hair stood on end. The whirlpool in his dark eyes was spinning faster and faster, and the surroundings were filled with strands of black, dancing in the wind like hair.
This kind of aura was different from spiritual energy. It was more domineering and darker.
It was as if a metal monster was approaching, and the sound of footsteps was extremely ear-piercing. Everyone looked over and saw a young man wearing black and red armor and carrying a long sword on his back striding over. This young man's eyes were dark, and his face was pale. His expression was cold.
His attire was the same as the soldiers they saw at the entrance of the fortress. This person's identity was obvious.
Demon Suppression Sergeant!
The Demon Suppression Army was the strongest force in the Demon Suppression Fortress. They were more powerful than the Demon Hunters, and also more formal.
If the Demon Suppression Army was the formal main force, then the Demon Hunters were like stragglers. The difference between the two was huge.
Every Demon Hunter wanted to be a Demon Suppression Sergeant, but most of them didn't have the qualifications.
"You've all forgotten the rules of the Demon Suppression Fortress, right?" The pale-faced Demon Suppression Sergeant spoke slowly. His voice was as calm as water, but it sent chills down people's spines. The surrounding Demon Hunters were pale, and some of them couldn't help but tremble.
When facing rookies, they thought that rookies were like flowers in a greenhouse. No matter how talented they were or how good their background was, they would still feel superior. However, when facing a Demon Suppression Sergeant, all their feelings of superiority dissipated like smoke and no longer existed.
"I wouldn't dare, I just saw that these two young brothers are new here and not familiar with them. I took the initiative to get to know them out of goodwill." Mister Han nodded and bowed. He really didn't dare to go against the Demon Suppression Sergeant. Otherwise, if he was killed here, no one would stand up for him. Even the forces behind him wouldn't be able to get an explanation for him.
Even if he could get an explanation, so what? He would be killed anyway.
"The three of you remember, you're not allowed to fight in the Demon Suppression Fortress. If not, you'll be killed without mercy." The Demon Suppression Sergeant's cold gaze swept past Chen Zong and the other two, making Chen Zong and the other two feel a chill down their spines. "For a life and death battle, you can do it outside the fortress, or apply for the Blood Vengeance Ring."
After saying that, the Demon Suppression Sergeant turned and left.
With the intervention of the Demon Suppression Sergeant, Mister Han and the other Demon Hunters naturally didn't dare to offend him again. They only fiercely glanced at Chen Zong and Hua Wenjun, the murderous intent and threat in their eyes were very strong. Then, they looked at Hua Wenqing. That kind of desire was very obvious, making Hua Wenqing very uncomfortable.
Hua Wenjun retracted his aura, and the dark vortex in his eyes dissipated. Hua Wenjun returned to his previous bright appearance. Looking at the Demon Suppression Sergeant's back, a trace of passion flashed in his eyes.
This was the Demon Suppression Sergeant.
Unparalleled in their reputation.
Chen Zong was also surprised by the Demon Suppression Sergeant's demeanor, but he was even more surprised by the Demon Suppression Sergeant's strength. As expected, he was very, very strong. He couldn't see the Demon Suppression Sergeant's cultivation level, but he was sure that it was at the Extreme Mortal Realm.
"Demon Suppression Army!" Chen Zong's heart gradually formed an idea.
"Brother Chen, let's go to the Demon Hunter Hall," Hua Wenjun said.
"Okay." Chen Zong nodded.
To come to the Demon Suppression Fort to train, one must first become a Demon Hunter. Only then could one gain merits and exchange them for treasures and so on.
Becoming a Demon Hunter was also the first step to joining the Demon Suppression Army.
The three of them walked quickly, and they saw a large hall from afar.
The large hall stood majestically, made of black and red metal. Its appearance was like an incomparably huge scimitar, standing tall on the ground and pointing straight at the sky. It was incomparably sharp, as if it was going to split the sky open.
Looking at the large hall, Chen Zong's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He suddenly had an inexplicable feeling, as if he was about to break through some kind of shackles, and some kind of inspiration was about to come out.
"It's you guys, how dare you come here." A voice filled with malice exploded like a sudden clap of thunder, waking Chen Zong up. The feeling that was about to come out also disappeared in an instant.
A mouthful of anger suddenly emerged from the depths of his heart, and turned into a fierce killing intent. The Red Jade Sword was unsheathed, and it turned into an incomparably sharp sword light that split the heavens and the earth. It carried a heart full of anger as it slashed out.
He was so close to breaking through, but was suddenly interrupted. This kind of feeling was definitely unpleasant.
Cutting off one's path to wealth was like killing one's parents, and interrupting one's breakthrough was even more serious than cutting off one's path to wealth.
"Chen Zong, stop." Hua Wenjun was shocked, and hurriedly took action. He threw out a punch, and a black light broke through the air and hit the red sword light, slightly deflecting it. Fourth Master Han, who had spoken, also quickly dodged in an instant. He was just a hair's breadth away from being hit by Chen Zong's angry sword.
A sword mark that was dozens of meters long was left on the hard ground. The terrifying sword Qi waves filled the air, and the surroundings were silent.
Inside the Demon Suppression Fortress, no one was allowed to fight at will. This was a rule that had been in place for a long time. It wasn't that no one had violated it in the past, but they all ended up being killed by the Demon Suppression Army.
Even experts of the Profound Sky Realm couldn't be spared, but that was under the condition that they had killed someone.
The terrifying aura was incomparably cold, and it directly locked onto Chen Zong. This kind of pressure made it difficult for Chen Zong to breathe.
"Why did you attack?" At the same time, an indifferent voice sounded, questioning Chen Zong.
Hua Wenjun and Hua Wenqing were both very nervous.
"You interrupted my epiphany." Chen Zong responded neither slowly nor quickly, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
The surrounding people all showed a look of realization, and some of them looked at Fourth Master Han with eyes full of disgust.
For warriors, epiphany was very important. It was an opportunity, and it wasn't easy to obtain. Being interrupted in epiphany was a great loss.
