The moon was sinking and the stars were slanting. Strange horses covered with black scales were moving forward quickly. Even though they were dragging a carriage full of people, they didn't seem heavy at all.
"The bloodline of the evil demons is so powerful. What about the real evil demons?" The young man, who had recovered from the grief of having to abandon his companions, looked around and murmured in a low voice.
He had seen this kind of horses before, but he was always amazed by their strength and speed. He rarely associated them with the evil demons. Now that the crowd of demons was approaching, he couldn't help but think about it. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.
"The most common evil demon is equivalent to the strength of a human with seven apertures." His companion with a mustache heard his murmur and snorted. "There are books about evil demons and evil ghosts all over the city. How can you not know them?"
Fighting against the Nine Serenities was a matter of the whole tribe. The leaders would naturally send people to sort out the information about the evil demons and evil gods. They wanted everyone to know the general situation so that they could deal with them when they encountered them.
The young man's face turned red and he stammered, "I, I don't like to read these …"
He was young during the last crowd of demons, so he didn't have a deep impression of it. He didn't care much about the cruelty until today.
"Don't whisper. Be careful." Leader Li said in a low voice.
"Yes." The young man replied hurriedly. He looked at the leader's expressionless face and one arm subconsciously.
How sad, painful, and desperate was the leader at that time?
As soon as the young man thought about it, a black shadow suddenly jumped out from the grass on the left side of the road. It was as tall as a normal person and had no skin. Its flesh and blood were exposed. Its tendons were pale white, and its blood was dark red. There were many bone spurs on its joints. It opened its big mouth and only had six teeth, but each of them was sharp.
A disgusting smell came into his nose. The fierce aura penetrated his body. The young man's legs were trembling, and his right hand was weak. He could only watch the black shadow rushing toward him.
"The evil demon is attacking!" A sharp voice sounded. The sound of people drawing their swords and sabers converged.
Clang!
The thick-backed long saber slashed the face of the evil demon and sent it flying. But except for a shallow scratch, it didn't suffer much damage.
"Leader Li …" The young man gasped in fear.
The leader reined in the reins of the horse and faced the demons. He said calmly, "You guys retreat first. We are not far from the Pingle City."
"Leader Li, what about you?" the young man shouted.
Before he could finish speaking, Moustache grabbed his reins and dragged him forward. His ears were filled with sorrowful and helpless words.
"According to the rules, if there are any stray demons obstructing or delaying us along the way, the captain will be responsible for dealing with them. If the captain can't deal with them, the vice-captain will follow him. However, they must not delay the team's progress. Anyone who disobeys will be beheaded immediately!"
Evacuating the main force was the most important!
The young man was stunned. He ran with the horse for a while before coming back to his senses. He turned his head and looked into the distance. He saw that Li Tou's horse had fallen to the ground. It had already been killed by the evil spirit. Meanwhile, Li Tou was waving his thick-backed long saber and fighting with the fierce evil spirit. His back view was so old and bleak, but it was also so straight and firm.
"Chief Li …" He choked with sobs and tears blurred his vision. He gritted his teeth and turned around. He spurred his horse and stood guard on the left side of the team. His back was straight, just like the leader who would rather die than bend.
In the demon tide, every young and inexperienced human teenager would either die or undergo such a metamorphosis.
Clatter, clatter, clatter! The horses galloped toward the huge shadow in the dim light — Pingle City!
…
"The Law of One Moment, the Law of All Ages?" the black-armored man behind Qi Zhengyan asked with a puzzled expression.
Qi Zhengyan slowly descended and landed on a nearby mountain. He looked at the city in the distance and said blandly, "A human organization that can constantly produce powerful warriors."
The black airflow around the black-armored man suddenly sped up. He said in confusion, "Demonic Lord, you are the Lord of the Nine Serenities, the leader of the evil devils. Why do you always think about the human race?"
"I'm not the Demon Lord." Qi Zhengyan repeated again, "Demons are in every living creature's heart. Whether it's fighting against injustice, against power, love and hatred, or greed and hatred, they are all demons. However, most of the evil demons in the Nine Serenities only know how to kill and destroy. They are not living creatures. They can only be regarded as the manifestation of some rules of heaven and earth. Just like the universe has an end and life will eventually die, they are the symbol of death and end."
"They are bound by the heavens and the earth, bound by the Great Dao, forever confined to this place. As the successor of the Devil Lord, I shouldn't associate myself with them. Instead, I should lead them to rebel against the heavens, against the rules, against the Great Dao, to free myself from killing and destruction, to reveal my own spirituality. This is the true 'Devil'.
Qi Zhengyan's eyes were pitch-black, like two groups of black flames burning quietly. They were not fierce, but they could start a prairie fire and change the world!
The black-armored demon behind him was stunned on the spot. For a moment, he felt that killing and killing was his life's pursuit. This was his nature, this was the demon. At the same time, he felt that he could not get rid of it. He was like a puppet of heaven and earth. It was very depressing.
After a long time, he knelt down on one knee and lowered his head, "I'm willing to follow Your Majesty to change the world and break free from my own fate!"
He quietly changed the way he addressed Meng Qi.
"You are the first reincarnation of the Devil Saint to awaken on your own. You have your own will. That's why I brought you with me." Qi Zhengyan said lightly, "This road is very dangerous. Heaven and Great Tao will not tolerate it. Have you thought about it?"
The black-armored demon's face was no longer flattering. He laughed loudly, "Isn't it just fighting for the Nine Levels of Heaven? It's not like I haven't done it before! "
"When I refine my demon body, I'll go against the damn heaven again!"
Qi Zhengyan did not say anything. He stood at the edge of the cliff with his hands behind his back. He looked at Chang Ning City in the distance. His temperament was deep and peaceful. He did not look like a demon at all.
"Devil Lord, what is the Art of Eternity like?" The black-armored demon showed a flattering smile again. He recorded the teachings of the Devil Lord in a small notebook.
Qi Zhengyan did not look back. His eyes were deep and serene, "I have inherited from the Devil Lord. I know countless martial arts and I have the best knowledge in the world. But if I accept his martial arts completely, I will not have my own ideas and ideas. I will not be close to myself. It will only be more difficult and I will go astray. It's best if I can't be compared to the Devil Lord in the past."
"In the past few years, I have been practicing in isolation with the help of the Devil Lord's knowledge. I have integrated his martial arts into my own. It can be considered as a small gain."
Before his voice died away, a Dharma Form with a human head and a dragon body appeared behind him. On top of the Dharma Form's head rose a bright golden star. It was clear and translucent, reflecting countless scenes!
The black-armored demon was experienced and knowledgeable. At this time, he also felt the pressure from this star. It was not strong enough at the moment, but it seemed to be so strong that it would be difficult to resist!
"This star is called 'Equality'. It is not absolute equality, but equality of opportunity. The rich can rely on wealth, the talented can rely on talent, and the ordinary can rely on hard work, focus, and heart. Equality of opportunity. Those who strive forward take the lead and those who fall behind." Qi Zhengyan's voice was calm and straightforward. "And there are three embodiments of it in martial arts. The first is to analyze martial arts and pry into its essence."
"I used it to decompose 133,756 sets of martial arts and found some of the most essential rules. I created this Encyclopedia of Martial Arts. It goes from shallow to deep and is easy to practice. Ordinary people can get started with it as long as they work hard. It will not affect any martial arts they can practice in the future. Moreover, it is helpful for practicing other martial arts. It is the most suitable for mass education."
These rules were all in the Devil Lord's knowledge. But if Qi Zhengyan wanted to use it smoothly, he still needed to study and summarize it by himself. However, in the case of reference, it would definitely be much easier.
"Equality …" The black-armored demon only noticed the star, and it seemed that he did not dare to look at it directly.
In the future, the Devil Lord would definitely condense more than one martial arts star!
He took a deep breath and said, "But even if martial arts is popularized and there is an endless number of powerful people in the organization, people will slowly degenerate. No matter how good the organization is, it will eventually deteriorate. This is the way of life and death. Only those who have achieved the Tao Fruit can jump out of it."
"When I master the Devil Arts, I will leave them a weapon that is enough to let them fight against the upper class," Qi Zhengyan said calmly, "As long as the people are united, the weapon will appear. This sword is called 'Revolution'!"
…
In the Pingle City, except for the main passageways, all the markets were closed. Everything was in order. Under the leadership of the Jianghu people and the government constables, the common people were guarding their homes and patrolling the streets to prevent the traitors or the evil spirits from causing trouble. Once they found any trouble, they would immediately send out a signal to seek help.
Every cardinal point of the big formation of the city was controlled and protected by the experts of the Exterior.
There were also many experts of the Exterior at the top of the city wall. They led the outstanding people who had enlightened the Apertures to guard the big formation. When the big formation was temporarily broken, they would defend against the evil spirits that rushed in.
Everything was so orderly. Under the guidance of Qin Shuanglian and Qin Shuanghua, Mengqi and the others walked to the city gate.
The morning light was dim. In the darkness, a team of carriages was moving fast. It was the young man and the others.
Seeing that the city was in sight, everyone secretly felt relieved. At this moment, the experts of the Exterior at the top of the city wall saw a line of darkness appearing in the distant sky. The line of darkness quickly became bigger and bigger like countless dark clouds floating toward Pingle City.
"Evil spirits are attacking!" He clenched his right hand and said with a thunderous voice.
The guards at the city gate looked at the young man and the others with pity. Then they lowered their heads and pushed the city gate closed.
If there was any trace of evil spirits, they would immediately close the city gate, no matter how close the team outside was!
If they did not obey the order, the whole city might fall and hundreds of thousands of people would sink into hell!
Zha, zha, zha … The heavy sound came. Everyone in the team showed a desperate look.
