Qing Ge's impudent smile finally came to an abrupt end.
No matter how slow he was, he still noticed the disappearance of the blood sea. His savage expression changed.
However, the Body Integration cultivator's reaction was much faster than his.
Although the Marquis of Calm Sea still did not understand what was going on with this strange transformation, it was clear that the sea of blood that had left him helpless had vanished.
The blood sea was gone, and the Calm Sea was born.
Without any hesitation, the Marquis of Calm Sea quickly released his Calm Sea Dao Domain.
Spiritual light shone brightly, instantly enveloping Qing Ge.
Qing Ge was only a low-level Demon General. He had not cultivated a God-Devil Body.
A Devil Cultivator without a God-Devil Body would be at the mercy of a Body Integration cultivator's Dao Domain.
In Dao Domains, the Calm Sea was king.
With a thought, Qing Ge, who was enveloped by his Calm Sea Dao Domain, could not struggle at all. His body moved uncontrollably toward the Marquis of Calm Sea.
He was so fast that his body blurred.
When he came back to his senses, Qing Ge was like a little chick. The Marquis of Calm Sea was holding him by the neck. He was hanging in the air, unable to move. Only his lips were trembling. It was unknown whether it was out of fear or anger.
.....
One Sword to Break All Laws.
Even the blood sea, which could only be broken by a Tier Eight cultivator, could only be defeated by the Dragonsparrow.
After Lu Qingshan swung his sword, he quickly put away the Dragonsparrow. At the same time, he praised her in his heart, 'In the end, I still have to rely on you, Yitian.'
They were both Dao Artifacts, but in terms of practicality, the River of Forgetfulness and the Dragonsparrow were not on the same level.
Hence, although they were both his Natal Swords, how could he not favor the Dragonsparrow?
"It's good that I can help you, Young Master," Qin Yitian said gracefully. Her voice was crisp and pleasant.
"Whoosh!"
After breaking the blood sea with one sword and causing such a huge commotion, Lu Qingshan did not dare to stay on the warship for long. He quickly got up, left the blood-stained warship, and flew toward the Marquis of Calm Sea.
This was a request for protection.
Demons of the Sixth Stage and Seventh Stage were everywhere on the battlefield. If any of the Demons realized what was going on and decided to kill him to vent their anger, he wouldn't be able to defend himself.
When Marquis Calm Sea saw Lu Qingshan flying towards him, he glanced at him and instantly understood what Lu Qingshan meant.
However, when he saw the undisguised demonic Qi that was rolling out of Lu Qingshan's body, the corner of his eyes twitched uncontrollably.
Was this a dog-eat-dog situation?
This world was too crazy. A mouse was a cat's bridesmaid.
But no matter what, there was no doubt that Lu Qingshan's sword had broken the deadlock.
Thus, even though he still had many doubts about Lu Qingshan's identity, the Marquis of Calm Sea was extremely cooperative and maintained his composure. He used his Dao Domain to envelop Lu Qingshan and ensure his safety.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! At this moment, the Seventh Stage demonic cultivators who had temporarily retreated due to the self-destruction of the Realm Seven human sword cultivator finally rushed to the side of the warship with red eyes.
Unfortunately, it was already too late.
Black shadows appeared in the sky.
The demonic Qi on these Seventh Stage demonic cultivators surged like a rolling black sea, surrounding the Marquis of Calm Sea and Tang Ze.
In the face of this terrifying scene, the Marquis of Calm Sea remained unmoved. He even revealed a trace of a smile.
He already had a card up his sleeve.
Originally, he wasn't sure if Qing Ge's identity was enough to force the Demons to retreat.
However, in Qing Ge's smug words, he obtained an extremely important piece of information — this blood-stained warship that could block all attacks from Realm Seven cultivators came from Qing Ge's father.
This meant that Qing Ge's father was at least a Eighth Stage demonic cultivator.
Qing Ge's appearance also indicated his bloodline — Soldier Demon.
Both humans and Demons were well aware of the status of an Eighth Stage Soldier Demon in the Abyss.
Qing Ge was an extremely important son of an Eighth Stage Soldier Demon. Using his life to force these Demons to retreat was definitely not a problem.
These Seventh Stage demonic cultivators clearly surrounded them, but they didn't dare to act rashly. This was enough to prove this point.
"What do you want?" A demonic cultivator with countless holes on his body stepped forward. He seemed to have the highest status among the Demons aside from Demon General Qing Ge. He glared at the Marquis of Calm Sea with his triangular eyes, gritted his teeth, and suddenly spoke.
"Hmph!" The Marquis of Calm Sea coldly snorted.
He didn't seem to move, but a cold light appeared out of nowhere and flashed past Qing Ge's right arm.
"Ah!" In the next moment, Qing Ge let out a muffled scream.
His right arm, which was covered in dark golden patterns, had been forcibly severed along with the silver-gray armor.
Dark golden blood mixed with dark golden blood gushed out from the wound on his severed arm. The stench of blood filled the air.
Lu Qingshan's eyes flashed when he saw this. He seemed to have thought of something and actually grabbed Demon General Qing Ge's severed arm.
This caused the Marquis of Calm Sea to raise an eyebrow, but he didn't say anything.
"Stop!" When the demonic cultivators saw this, their expressions changed drastically. Their faces were filled with shock.
They were keenly aware that if Qing Ge died here, they would suffer the wrath of the Demonic Blade Venerable.
"Immediately tell your men to stop." The Marquis of Calm Sea stopped in time and coldly said as he looked at the Demons army still attacking Luoyan Pass.
"Quick, tell them to stop!" Although Qing Ge couldn't move with the Marquis of Calm Sea holding him by the neck, he could still speak. He hurriedly shouted at the demonic cultivators.
He knew that this would cause him to lose all face. He also understood that the humans wouldn't directly kill him. After all, he was worth a thousand taels of gold alive. Dead, he was only a corpse.
However, he still very cowardly took the initiative to speak.
This was because he didn't dare to take this risk. If he lost his life, then he would lose everything.
He was clearly doted on by his father and had a bright future ahead of him. If he died in his first battle, how could he be willing to accept it?
The triangular-eyed demonic cultivator's eyelids twitched involuntarily. A trace of indignation appeared in his heart towards Qing Ge's cowardice and arrogance. His eyes flashed with unwillingness.
However, he didn't dare to overstep his boundaries in front of everyone. He had no choice but to let out a long howl.
Wuuuu!
A loud and distorted howl suddenly reverberated between heaven and earth.
There seemed to be some special meaning contained within this howl. Its appearance caused the surging Demons army to stop their actions.
The flames of war raged in the sky, and the sorcery filled Luoyan Pass. Peace was restored just like that.
When the cultivators guarding the pass saw this, they were all extremely excited. Some of them even raised their heads to the sky and let out long howls.
Even the Body Integration Stage cultivators at the center of the crater were unable to contain their excitement, and they were just barely able to hold themselves together.
The Marquis of Calm Sea heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this.
Creak! Creak!
The sound of gnashing teeth suddenly rang out.
Lu Qingshan lowered his eyes and looked down. It turned out that Demonic General Qing Ge, whose neck was being held by the Marquis of Calm Sea, was glaring at him with a sinister gaze.
Lu Qingshan didn't mind. He even smiled at Qing Ge and shook his severed arm in front of him. Then, he unhurriedly put it away into his storage ring.
This made Demonic General Qing Ge so angry that he almost shattered his teeth from clenching them.
"State your conditions." The triangular-eyed demonic cultivator's voice was hoarse and unpleasant to the ears. "What do you want in order to release the Lord Demonic General?"
"It's very simple." The Marquis of Calm Sea calmly said, "Your Demons army will retreat. After three days, I will release him."
"No." The triangular-eyed demonic cultivator shook his head and said, "How can you guarantee that you will really release our Lord Demonic General after three days? What if you're just trying to trick us into retreating?"
"I don't trust you humans!"
"We can retreat, but you must immediately release the Lord Demonic General," the triangular-eyed demonic cultivator said in a low voice. "Release him and retreat."
The Marquis of Calm Sea only looked at the triangular-eyed demonic cultivator with a mocking gaze. He said mockingly, "Release him and retreat? Do you take me for a fool? If we do as you say, once I release him, won't you immediately make a comeback? "
"What's the point of retreating?"
"Three days. I will only release him after three days," the Marquis of Calm Sea said firmly.
"No …"
The triangular-eyed demonic cultivator was just about to object when another scream rang out.
Qing Ge's left arm had already fallen off.
The Marquis of Calm Sea attacked again and cut off Demonic General Qing Ge's other arm.
Seeing this, the triangular-eyed demonic cultivator's pupils contracted. An undisguised ferocity flashed through his eyes like a wild beast.
"If you can't guarantee that you will release the Lord Demonic General after this," he gritted his teeth and said with a ferocious expression, "no matter how much you threaten us, we will not agree."
"If you have the guts, then kill the Lord Demonic General," the triangular-eyed demonic cultivator said viciously. "If you dare to do that, then yes, we will be severely punished. However, before that, we will drag all the cultivators in Luoyan Pass down with us!"
He was not stupid. In a negotiation, even if he was at a disadvantage, he could not blindly give in. Otherwise, he would only be eaten clean.
Hence, the triangular-eyed demonic cultivator did not back down at all. He even started to threaten the Marquis of Calm Sea.
The Marquis of Calm Sea's expression did not change in the face of the triangular-eyed demonic cultivator's threat. However, he already knew the Demons' bottom line.
He did not dare to push too hard. After all, his ultimate goal was to protect Luoyan Pass, not to do anything to Qing Ge.
After all, how valuable could a Grade Six Soldier Demon be, and an idiot at that? Even if he killed him, he would not earn much.
After giving it some thought, the Marquis of Calm Sea said, "How about this? Your Demons army will retreat. I'll bring him along with you. After three days, I'll let him go.
"With me bringing him along with you, you won't be worried, right?"
The moment the Marquis of Calm Sea finished speaking, Tang Ze, who had been silent all this while, could not help but speak up. "Lord General, that won't do. If you do that, won't you …"
The Marquis of Calm Sea's suggestion could indeed guarantee that Luoyan Pass would have enough time to call for reinforcements and prevent the Demons from coming back.
However, the problem was that if they did as the Marquis of Calm Sea said, he would have to face the Demons' army alone.
That would be a perilous situation.
"Sure." The triangular-eyed demonic cultivator agreed. "I agree."
"Lord General …" Tang Ze said, unwilling to give up.
"Say no more. I've made up my mind." The Marquis of Calm Sea said firmly, "Tang Ze!"
"Here!" Tang Ze instinctively replied.
"I order you to guard Luoyan Pass when I'm not around!" the Marquis of Calm Sea shouted.
"… Understood!" Tang Ze gritted his teeth and replied.
"So be it." The Marquis of Calm Sea smiled. With a thought, he circulated his Origin Power, and a pushing force appeared out of thin air, pushing Lu Qingshan to Tang Ze's side.
He looked at Lu Qingshan meaningfully, and said to Tang Ze, "Protect this little guy. He's a great hero of our Luoyan Pass."
After arranging everything, the Marquis of Calm Sea looked at the Grade Seven Demonic Cultivators around him who were eyeing him covetously. He said calmly, "Everyone, we can retreat now, right?"
The triangular-eyed demonic cultivator nodded slowly. He opened his mouth and let out a long howl.
Wu wu wu!
In the sky, the churning black ocean formed by the Devil Race army stirred up huge waves amidst the distant humming noises. It was like a receding tide as it rapidly retreated.
"Let's go, human cultivator," the triangular-eyed demonic cultivator said coldly.
The Marquis of Calm Sea nodded. He lifted Qing Ge and was about to leave.
"Who are you?" Demonic General Qing Ge, who had lost both his arms and his face was pale, suddenly asked.
He looked at Lu Qingshan. Because he was heavily injured, the resentment in his eyes was even more shocking. "Why did you betray us Demons?"
"Didn't I tell you? I'm Li Feiyu, a cultivator of the Hades." Lu Qingshan smiled warmly at Qing Ge. "As for why I betrayed you?"
After a pause, Lu Qingshan said righteously, "It's just that I didn't dare to forget my country. My body is in the Hades, but my heart is in the Summer!"
"You … despicable, despicable!" Demonic General Qing Ge's resentment soared to the sky. "Li Feiyu, Li Feiyu, I'll remember this! I'll remember this!
I, Qing Ge, swear today that I'll personally kill you in the future. I'll return the humiliation you gave me today tenfold! "
Lu Qingshan chuckled, revealing his snow-white teeth. "I'll wait for you!"
The Marquis of Calm Sea did not give Qing Ge any more chances to speak. Carrying him, he turned and flew in the direction of the Demons' army.
The Grade Seven Demons hurriedly followed. They surrounded the Marquis of Calm Sea, afraid that they would let him go.
"Marquis of Calm Sea …" Lu Qingshan stared at the sky. He watched as the black line formed by the Demons' army gradually disappeared from his sight. He slowly exhaled.
Even with Demonic General Qing Ge as a hostage, it would not be easy for the Marquis of Calm Sea to escape from the Demons' lair safely …
This general of Wild Goose Pass had already put his own safety aside for the sake of Wild Goose Pass.
When all of the Demons' army had retreated and the dust had settled, the cultivators in Wild Goose Pass behind Lu Qingshan could not help but cheer after surviving a calamity.
… …..
…..
Request for reinforcements.
After the Demons' army retreated, the first thing the Wild Goose Pass did was to report the situation to the Jade Gate Pass and request for reinforcements.
After receiving the message from the Luoyan Pass, the Jade Gate Pass immediately dispatched a dozen or so Body Integration cultivators and an eighth tier cultivator to guard the Luoyan Pass in case the devilish army were to return.
It was true that they would not easily use Grade Eight cultivators in small city passes, but it did not mean that they could not use them.
Special circumstances naturally required special treatment.
After requesting for reinforcements, it was time to count the losses.
Luoyan Pass, who had experienced hundreds of battles, was already very familiar with this process.
Since the Great Protective Formation had not been broken, the Demons were forced to retreat. Hence, there were almost no casualties among the low-level cultivators in Wild Goose Pass.
This was good news.
Unfortunately, there were always two sides to a coin.
The lack of casualties among the low-level cultivators was a result of the great sacrifice of the Body Integration cultivators in Wild Goose Pass.
There were originally 18 Body Integration cultivators in Wild Goose Pass.
In this battle, one of them self-detonated. In order to protect the Marquis of Calm Sea and Tang Ze from the range of the self-detonation, another six Body Integration cultivators, including all the Body Integration cultivators, died on the spot.
The remaining nine Body Integration cultivators were not in a much better situation. Although they did not die on the spot, they were all seriously injured. It would be difficult for them to recover their vitality without decades of recuperation.
In addition, the Marquis of Calm Sea's fate was unknown.
In other words, after this battle, Tang Ze was the only Body Integration cultivator left in Wild Goose Pass who could still maintain his combat strength.
The losses were heavy.
After counting the losses, compensating the families and compensating the families, it was time for the reward segment.
Human cultivators could willingly sacrifice their lives, but if there were no substantial rewards, this kind of sacrifice could only drain the pond to catch all the fish.
Therefore, the human race was never stingy with rewards for cultivators who had made great contributions.
This time, in the face of the menacing and premeditated Demons army, Wild Goose Pass was protected because there was one person who could not be bypassed no matter what.
From the beginning to the end, he had only swung his sword once.
