The distance between the two was quickly closing.
The first to discover Lu Qingshan was the Three-Eyed Demons.
The Three-Eyed Demons, Level Six Demons. That is to say, as long as they grow to their prime, the Three-Eyed Demons will be Level Six Demons.
As for their appearance, the most common description is that they are human-shaped bats.
In fact, it is also appropriate to call them vampires, but the word vampire is too westernized and does not fit the environment of 《Empyrean》. So in the previous life, the players reached a consensus to call the Three-Eyed Demons human-shaped bats.
The Three-Eyed Demon has a pair of huge and shriveled wings on its back, and a bat-like but human-like head with a green face and fangs.
The most terrifying thing is that between the Three-Eyed Demon's two eyes, there is a yellow eyeball protruding from between its eyebrows.
This is the Three-Eyed Demon's third eye. The innate abilities of the Demons all come from this eye.
This is a Demon Eye that can see far and attack with the Primordial Spirit.
Because of its ability to see far, the Three-Eyed Demon usually has the responsibility of being a "scout" among the Demons.
An adult Level Six Three-Eyed Demon saw Lu Qingshan's figure from afar, and also noticed the thick demonic aura around Lu Qingshan's body.
One hundred percent of the Demons Tie Zi — — He quickly made a judgment, and without thinking too much, he immediately increased his speed and left the group to meet Lu Qingshan.
Just like his third eye is not for nothing, the pair of wings on the Three-Eyed Demon's back is not to be trifled with.
The wings gave him an extremely fast flying speed.
The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer.
Screech — —
Just as the two were about to collide, the Three-Eyed Demon let out an ear-piercing and long screech, stopping Lu Qingshan.
The other party's three eyes were staring at Lu Qingshan at the same time.
Lu Qingshan's heart instantly jumped. Although he had converted his spiritual energy into demonic energy through the center of the Yin Chi, his identity as a human could not be changed. If he could not gain the other party's trust, he was afraid that he would be swallowed by the army of Demons in the blink of an eye.
Moreover, if his luck was really bad, there would be a real ruler of the Hades in the army of Demons in front of him. His disguise would most likely be exposed in an instant.
Of course, the probability of this happening was not high. It was close to zero.
In short, it was impossible not to be worried.
However, in a tense situation, some people would panic and make mistakes, while others would be able to remain calm.
Lu Qingshan was clearly the latter.
"Who are you?" Three-Eyed Demon was about to ask Lu Qingshan why he came.
"I'm a cultivator from the Eastern Domain's Hades. I've snuck into Jade Gate Pass under the orders of the Mansion Master. I have important news to convey to Sir." Lu Qingshan promptly revealed an uneasy expression.
This was the reason he had thought of in advance.
A cultivator from the Hades must have a suitable reason to appear in the foreign battlefield. Either they had something important to convey to the Demons, or they had some important news to convey.
He could not make an important item appear out of thin air, so this method was naturally not feasible.
However, he could make up news as he pleased.
In addition, because he did not know who the Eastern Domain's Hades belonged to, he very sneakily used the vague title of "Sir" to brush it off.
Three-Eyed Demon carefully examined Lu Qingshan, and unexpectedly said, "Come with me."
Then he turned around and flew into the depths of the army of Demons.
Lu Qingshan looked at Three-Eyed Demon's back, and his eyes flashed.
This was because the boss of the Hades had a high position among the Demons, so the Hades were classified secrets that normal Demons could not come into contact with. This caused Three-Eyed Demon in front of him to not dare to interrogate him, and could only bring him to meet with a higher position?
Or was there another reason?
He could not make an accurate judgment at the moment, but since he had passed the first test, he could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. He did not think too much, and hurriedly followed.
Along the way, Lu Qingshan gradually approached the army of Demons. As far as the eye could see, he saw a dense crowd of demons.
These Demons were of different shapes and sizes. Some had scarlet eyes, some had bodies like lava, and some were as tall as mountains.
Three-Eyed Demon brought him through the army of Demons, going deeper and deeper. No one came out to stop them.
Finally, after a few dozen breaths, Lu Qingshan was brought to a huge battleship that followed the army of Demons.
The battleship was stained with blood, as if it contained a vast and unfathomable divine power that made one's heart tremble.
"Wait here for a moment." Three-Eyed Demon brought Lu Qingshan to the deck of the battleship, then turned and walked into the depths of the battleship.
After a while, Three-Eyed Demon reappeared and said to Lu Qingshan, "Go in. The Demon General is waiting for you inside."
Lu Qingshan put on a frightened expression and walked in cautiously.
This was an extremely spacious cabin, in which there was a black throne. A tall and burly man was sitting on it, looking down at Lu Qingshan who had just walked in.
Yes, it was a "man."
This man was wearing grayish-silver armor, and his facial features revealed an extremely gloomy aura. He looked at Lu Qingshan with cold eyes.
Lu Qingshan felt as if he had been targeted by an eagle, and his scalp was slightly numb.
He glanced at the man's exposed skin from the corner of his eye, and immediately realized the identity of the Demons in front of him.
Soldier Demons!
Soldier Demons, as one of the Holy Demon Races in the Abyss, looked very similar to humans. The only slight difference was that there were strange dark golden lines on their skin.
These lines were called the Secret Lines by the Soldier Demons. These Secret Lines were what they relied on to control thousands of soldiers.
And he had just caught a glimpse of an inconspicuous dark golden pattern on the man's wrist.
"What's your name?" This burly "man" stared at Lu Qingshan's face like a hawk, as if he could see through all of his subtle psychological activities.
"I'm Li Feiyu," Lu Qingshan suddenly thought of this famous alias, and blurted it out subconsciously.
After Lu Qingshan said his name, the "man" suddenly narrowed his eyes. "You mean you have important news to pass to Chi Pu?"
It seemed that the Hades of the Eastern Region were under the command of this Demon named "Chi Pu."
Lu Qingshan reacted quickly, and then nodded slightly and replied, "Yes, Your Excellency."
"What's the important news? Tell me about it." The Soldier Demon in front of him showed a careless look, and a mocking smile appeared on his face.
"Your Excellency …" Lu Qingshan showed a hesitant look on his face.
He naturally knew that although the Soldier Demon in front of him had a very high status, he obviously didn't care about the Hades. Otherwise, why would he talk to him in such a tone?
He didn't know whether the Demon named "Chi Pu" or the Soldier Demon in front of him had a higher status.
But he knew that no matter when, it was absolutely inappropriate to privately pass the news that belonged to the Hades to another Demon who didn't care about the Hades.
Seeing Lu Qingshan's attitude, the man's face suddenly turned cold, and he looked at Lu Qingshan with a gloomy look. "What? Big Brother doesn't like me, and now even his slave dares to look down on me?"
Swoosh!
A dark golden pattern on the man's skin, which was covered by the grayish-silver armor, suddenly shone.
Then, the long saber on the waist of the Demons behind him uncontrollably flew out of the scabbard like a flying sword, flashing an arc of light in the air, and finally hanging in front of Lu Qingshan's face.
The cold air scraped the skin on his face painfully.
"Your Excellency Demon General, please spare my life. I'll talk, I'll talk!" Lu Qingshan's face finally changed, and he showed an expression of begging for mercy.
Looking at Lu Qingshan, who was begging for mercy, the man showed a satisfied expression, and his eyes were full of sarcasm. "It seems that big brother's slave is not that tough …"
But if he wasn't, he wouldn't have betrayed his own bloodline and become a lackey of us Demons! "
"Your Excellency is right. I'm just a coward." Lu Qingshan showed a flattering smile. "As the saying goes, a fine bird chooses a tree to nest in. The human race is weak, so I'm abandoning the darkness for the light."
The most important thing about "acting skills" was to be able to let go of the burden. No matter what kind of personality one had before, one could instantly put oneself into the new role that he was going to play.
On this point, Lu Qingshan did very well. This was the influence of the "modern" way of thinking on him, so he did not have too many stubborn thoughts that were stuck in the past.
"Tell me, what's the news?"
"Your Excellency Demon General, it's like this … Recently, the Hades of the Seven Regions were suddenly attacked by the human race, and we suffered heavy losses." Lu Qingshan raised his eyes and carefully looked at the burly Soldier Demon. He swallowed and continued, "Later, we found out that the culprit was a sword practitioner named 'Lu Qingshan' …"
"What kind of cultivation does this Lu Qingshan have? You can't deal with him, so you came to Chi Pu for help?" A cold light flashed in the burly man's eyes, and he sneered. "The stronger the Demons, the more difficult it is for them to enter the human territory …"
"It's not like that." Lu Qingshan quickly shook his head and said, "This Lu Qingshan's cultivation is actually not high. He's just a sword practitioner of the Fifth Realm. We have the ability to deal with him, but …"
After a pause, Lu Qingshan continued, "This Lu Qingshan chose to enter the Jade Gate Pass because he was afraid of our revenge.
Our Hades can't reach the Jade Gate Pass, so we came to see Sir Chi Pu. We hope that Sir Chi Pu can pay more attention to this Lu Qingshan in the extraterritorial battlefield. Once you find him, you can kill him directly to prevent future troubles. "
Although the news was made up by him, it couldn't be too fake. The Demons weren't stupid.
But he really didn't know much about the internal situation of the Hades. If he made up a story, it might be seen through immediately.
So after some consideration, selling himself became the best choice. After all, this was true information, and there were no flaws.
"The Hades suffered heavy losses, and Lu Qingshan …" The burly man repeated the name, as if thinking about something.
Lu Qingshan, on the other hand, was trembling below, looking like he did not dare to speak.
After a long time, the burly man's eyes turned cold and full of mockery. He stared at Lu Qingshan and said lightly, "Follow me for now. As for this Lu Qingshan, he's just a sword practitioner of the Fifth Realm. There's no need to trouble Big Brother. After I take Luoyan Pass, I'll personally help Big Brother get rid of this' great trouble '!"
When he said the words' great trouble ', the burly man emphasized his tone, and the mockery in it was obvious.
Hearing the burly man's words, Lu Qingshan couldn't help but complain in his heart. He originally wanted to use his identity as a cultivator of the Hades to pass through the Demons' army. Then, before the Demons' army reached Luoyan Pass, he would pass on the news and let the cultivators of Luoyan Pass retreat in time.
Who knew that this Devil General in front of him had gone crazy for some unknown reason, actually forcefully intercepting him.
This undoubtedly messed up his original plan.
What was worse was that he could deceive outsiders, but if he was really forced to meet that 'Chi Pu', he didn't have the slightest confidence that he could deceive the world.
The problem was that the situation was worse than the person, and he didn't have the confidence to raise an objection.
"The plan really can't keep up with the changes. After a series of actions, I actually got myself into a situation where I'm trapped in a Demon's nest." Lu Qingshan was helpless. "Now, I can only take one step at a time."
After the matter was over, he was quickly dismissed. However, it seemed that to give 'Chi Pu' face, he wasn't dismissed too far away. Instead, he was left on the battleship.
.....
On the other side, after Lu Qingshan left, the Demon General who led the Demons' army couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
The Soldier Demon belonged to the Holy Demon Bloodline of the Abyss. It was one of the eight most powerful clans. Its status was supreme, and it was divided into many lineages.
He belonged to the Demon Blade lineage, and his father was the Demon Lord of the Demon Blade lineage, Demon Lord Demon Lord.
The Demon Lord Demon Lord had three sons. His eldest brother, Chi Pu, his second brother, Diao Feng, and him, Qing Ge.
His eldest brother, Chi Pu, was already a Rank-7 Demon General. His second brother was the same. Only he was a Rank-6 Junior Demon General.
Firstly, he was still young. He was the youngest son of the Demon Lord Demon Lord. Secondly, and most importantly, he was actually the illegitimate son of the Demon Lord Demon Lord.
In layman's terms, he was a hybrid between the Demon Lord Demon Lord and another Demon. The Soldier Demon Bloodline in him wasn't pure.
Therefore, even if he reached adulthood, he couldn't become a Rank-8 Demon. That was something only pure-blooded Soldier Demons could do.
However, for some reason, perhaps it was because he had a son in his old age, or perhaps it was because the Demon Lord Demon Lord liked his deceased mother very much. In short, his father was very fond of this hybrid.
However, among Demons, bloodline was the most important thing. Bloodline was the status.
Favoritism was useless. Even his father couldn't change this tradition.
Therefore, in order to help him, the Demon Lord Demon Lord had to help him purify the Soldier Demon Bloodline in him.
The problem was, the divine items that could purify the bloodline were strategic resources for any Demon. Countless people coveted them.
There were many Demon Lords in the Soldier Demon Clan. Even the Demon Lord Demon Lord couldn't control everything. If he spent a large amount of Blood Spirit Crystals on his "illegitimate son" without any reason, the other Demon Lords would be displeased.
Therefore, the Demon Lord Demon Lord had to find a suitable excuse to cover up his actions. The simplest way was to use battle credits.
Battle credits could be exchanged for Blood Spirit Crystals. This was the rule in the Abyss for 20,000 years.
As the Demon Lord Demon Lord, it was easy for the Demon Lord Demon Lord to manipulate his favorite illegitimate son. He just needed to send out an army of Demons and let Qing Ge lead it. Then, he would choose a human city to attack and be done with it.
The huge amount of battle credits from slaughtering a city was enough for Qing Ge to exchange for enough divine items to evolve his Soldier Demon Bloodline to Rank-7.
This was the reason why he, a junior Demon General, was qualified to lead an army of Rank-7 Demons to attack Luoyan Pass — — [My Demon Lord Father].
It was also for this reason that his relationship with his eldest brother and second brother was extremely bad.
The Eastern Hades was under the jurisdiction of his eldest brother, Chi Pu.
Qing Ge did not feel too much about this matter because he did not care about the Hades at all. It was troublesome and meaningless.
In his opinion, with the strength of the Demons, they could completely crush the human race — — Of course, this was under the condition that "Xia Dao Ancestor" was not included. Why bother with those complicated things? In any case, they could not help them solve the threat of Xia Dao Ancestor.
All in all, it was not a big deal to have one more Hades, and it was not a big deal to have one less.
Chi Pu had always scoffed at his point of view and often ridiculed him as an idiot. How could he understand the deeper value of the Hades?
He admitted that his eldest brother Chi Pu was extremely shrewd and his second brother was also not simple. They were not easy to deal with. But so what, to gain a foothold in the clan, did they rely on those plots and machinations?
No, they relied on strength, relied on his father's favoritism. As long as his strength could surpass Chi Pu and Diao Feng, he could suppress them.
If the weapon is sharp enough, there is no need to be too smart — — This was the widely spread "bible" of the Soldier Demon Clan. He had always engraved it in his heart and regarded it as his own motto.
Although he never felt that his intelligence was not as good as his eldest brother and second brother.
For example, right now, with the excuse of helping his eldest brother solve a problem, he intercepted his eldest brother's servant and made things difficult for Chi Pu.
If his eldest brother did not receive the news in time and made a mistake, with his father's favoritism towards him, only his eldest brother would be blamed by his father, while he himself would be fine.
Thinking of this, Demon General Qing Ge could not help but reveal a proud smile.
