Countless Demons appeared in the wilderness at the border of North City.
The moon that pierced through the clouds cast a clear light, revealing the dark mass of Demons, which was extremely shocking.
The cultivators of the Spirit Huan Sect, who were supposed to fight against the Demons and be at odds with the Demons, were now standing silently on both sides of the city gate, as if they were guards welcoming the return of their king, respectful and fanatical.
So many demons had entered the city from the north gate, and there were so many of them, but none of them made a sound.
However, there were too many Demons, and the scene was too big, so it was impossible to hide from everyone.
Not long after, a Longcheng Pass cultivator who happened to pass by North City discovered this scene.
He was shocked and frightened, and he even rubbed his eyes at once, wondering if he was dreaming.
Then, he took a closer look, and the Longcheng Pass cultivator was horrified to find that the team of Demons had spread from the street to the North City Gate, and then from the North City Gate to the wilderness, and he could not see the end of them at all.
The next moment, he opened his mouth wide, as if he was about to exclaim.
Whoosh!
At this moment, a silver glimmer streaked across the night and shot straight between the cultivator's eyebrows.
His wide open lips suddenly trembled, and then he closed them weakly. His eyes suddenly turned white, and the whites of his eyes covered his black pupils.
Then, his body trembled for a moment, and he powerlessly fell backwards, falling straight to the ground.
The one who did this was a Demon with strange silver patterns on his face.
He looked at the Longcheng Pass cultivator who had fallen to the ground like a pool of mud, and there was no burning killing intent, no disdain, and no sarcasm in his dark golden eyes. Instead, there was only indifference that was cold to the bone.
He touched the silver patterns on his face, raised his head, and looked inside Longcheng Pass, which had stood on the border and kept the Demons out for 20,000 years, and sneered.
Most people thought that if the Demons wanted to break through the large city passes of the Human Race and enter the Human Realm, they would have to fight for at least thousands of years and pay an unimaginable price.
Even the Demons had the same consensus.
Except for the Mental Demon Clan …
They never thought so.
The strongest city passes were usually breached from the inside.
Therefore, after so many years of planning and planning, they were finally able to break into the city without shedding a drop of blood.
However … breaking into the city was only the beginning.
He glanced at the building in the distance again. There was no change in expression on his face that was covered in silver patterns. He just waved his hand behind him.
"Demon Venerable Dongqi." A Spirit Huan Sect practitioner standing quietly at the side took out a map of the interior of Longcheng Pass and presented it to him.
The demonic cultivator known as Demon Venerable Dongqi looked at the layout and defense measures of Longcheng Pass on the map in silence.
The reason why they could enter Longcheng Pass so smoothly without encountering any obstacles was naturally because of the Spirit Huan Sect.
However, the Spirit Huan Sect was not the only one in Longcheng Pass. There were also practitioners from other sects in the Central Spirit Region, as well as some rogue practitioners.
If they didn't kill these people, the Demons wouldn't be able to truly control Longcheng Pass, and they wouldn't be able to march their army into the Central Spirit Region, let alone seize the souls.
Demon Venerable Dongqi frowned slightly. He thought of the massacre in Chang 'an not long ago, of the Zhishou Building that was taken over by the Water Moon Temple Master, and of the many Hades practitioners that were caught.
If it weren't for these things, they were confident that they could be more prepared and make this "Soul Seize" battle more perfect.
However, victory would eventually belong to them, and no one could stop it.
Tonight, when all the other cultivators in Longcheng Pass were killed, this pass, which had stopped the Devil Clan for ten thousand years and was regarded as a barrier by the Human Clan, would become a bridgehead for the Inner Demon Clan to conquer the Central Spirit Region.
What was there to be dissatisfied with?
Demon Venerable Dongqi looked at Longcheng Pass that was shrouded in darkness. He looked at the buildings that were scattered under the moonlight, and then looked back at the large number of demonic cultivators he brought and the Spirit Huan Sect practitioners who were quietly waiting for orders. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he smiled with satisfaction.
Finally, he made up his mind and passed down the order.
Soon, the demonic cultivators spread out along the scattered streets in all directions of Longcheng Pass.
.....
In the southeast of Longcheng Pass, there were several top sects.
The Spirit Huan Sect was powerful and was a Taoist sect in the Central Spirit Region. Therefore, only one sect guarded the north and west walls.
In addition, the east wall of Longcheng Pass was jointly guarded by the four top sects in the Central Spirit Region.
As for the southern city wall, it faced the Central Spirit Region.
The enemy couldn't come from the Central Spirit Region, so there was no need to spend too much manpower here.
Therefore, there was only one sect guarding the south wall, the South Sword Pavilion, the strongest sword practitioner sect in the Central Spirit Region.
During this period, because the Inner Demons had made too many moves, even on the south wall, there were many people at the moment.
Sword Master Changgu of the South Sword Pavilion stood on the wall.
He looked in the direction of the north wall, where he couldn't see the specific appearance, and rubbed his eyebrows. He felt extremely depressed, and his eyelids were twitching, as if something bad was about to happen.
.....
In the center of Longcheng Pass, there were four palaces floating in fog all year round.
These four palaces were named after the Four Spirits: Vermilion Bird Palace, Black Tortoise Palace, Azure Dragon Palace, and White Tiger Palace.
The masters of the palaces were the four Honorable Realm cultivators of the Spirit Huan Sect.
At this moment, three of the four Honorable Realm cultivators were gathered in the Azure Dragon Palace.
The three of them had their hands behind their backs, staring at the floating map of the Central Spirit Region made of fog in front of them. Their eyes were solemn and focused, as if they were thinking about something.
The three Honorable Realm cultivators were all wearing the golden Spirit Huan Sect robes, but the patterns embroidered on their robes were different.
The old man on the left had a Vermilion Bird Burning the Sky embroidered on his robes.
The middle-aged male cultivator in the middle had a Black Tortoise Raising the Sky embroidered on his robes.
The one on the far right was also an old man with a roaring white tiger embroidered on his robes.
The Vermilion Bird Ruler, the Black Tortoise Ruler, and the White Tiger Ruler.
These were the titles of the three Honorable Realm cultivators.
After a long time, the Vermilion Bird Ruler's eyes finally changed slightly. He didn't turn his head, and said indifferently, "Dongqi is here?"
Beside him, the Black Tortoise Ruler smiled. "They're here."
"Now that they're ready, they're just waiting for your final order," said the Black Tortoise Ruler.
"Long delays may lead to trouble. Let's act as soon as possible," said the Vermilion Bird Ruler. "As for the other three Honorable Realm cultivators, leave them to us."
"They're Honorable Realm cultivators after all. Even if we crush them, we won't be able to take them down without shedding a drop of blood."
"Sacrifices at the beginning are inevitable," said the White Tiger Ruler nonchalantly.
"Then inform everyone to act," said the Black Tortoise Ruler with a nod.
Not long after his voice fell, a ferocious demon beast spiraled into the sky from the center of Longcheng Pass and let out a sharp cry.
The sound was so ear-piercing that it instantly spread throughout the vast Longcheng Pass, allowing all the cultivators in the pass to hear it.
The moment the cultivators of Longcheng Pass heard the sharp cry, they subconsciously raised their heads at the same time and looked in the direction of the sound.
Immediately after, a shadow that was constantly enlarging was reflected in their eyes.
Those were … Demons!
.....
The great protective formation of Longcheng Pass was called the Bright Moon Formation.
This formation was set up by Dao Ancestor Xia back then. It was the pinnacle of formations in the world, and its power was boundless.
Even the tyrannical strength of the Devil Clan could not easily break through the Bright Moon Great Formation presided over by the human cultivators.
However, there was no such thing as an impenetrable formation in the world, nor was there a defense without weaknesses.
The Bright Moon Formation was controlled by humans, and this was its most obvious weakness.
Therefore, if there was a problem with the people, there would be a problem with the formation.
Such an important formation naturally belonged to the most powerful sect in Longcheng Pass.
The Bright Moon Formation was controlled by the Spirit Huan Sect.
Therefore, this great formation that was supposed to help the human race resist the Demons had turned against the cultivators of Longcheng Pass today.
The moonlight illuminated the night sky, and the bright moon hung high in the sky.
Demon Venerable Dongqi stood not far from the eastern city wall, and behind him was a black mass of demonic cultivators.
He looked up at the second "bright moon" that had suddenly appeared in the sky. His expression was calm, and the corners of his lips curled up even higher. He ordered softly, "Kill, no mercy!"
.....
Longcheng Pass was illuminated by the moonlight with a cold and sad color.
Almost at the same time, the whole Longcheng Pass was filled with the sounds of fighting, killing, screams, and blood splashing and falling.
All kinds of magic arts and magic weapons were flying in the moonlight.
The whole city began to shake, and the earth began to tremble.
"Demons!"
"It's Demons!"
"Why are there Demons in Longcheng Pass?!"
The cultivators of Longcheng Pass could not help but exclaim after seeing the shadows of the Demons.
However, the demonic cultivators did not pay attention to these exclamations at all. They maintained a fixed speed and charged at the human cultivators with a terrifying and ferocious momentum. Wherever they passed, the wind whistled.
At this moment, a bright moon suddenly hung high in the sky, sprinkling moonlight, illuminating the figures and faces of these demonic cultivators.
In the moonlight, the extremely panicked and nervous cultivators of Longcheng Pass looked a little relieved.
Because they recognized the bright moon.
This was the sign that the Bright Moon Formation of their Longcheng Pass had been activated.
The old bright moon was now closed.
It was because of the Bright Moon Formation that the Demons could retreat in Longcheng Pass.
Although they did not know what had happened that allowed the Demons to enter Longcheng Pass, as long as the Bright Moon Formation was still there, these Demons would definitely be wiped out.
However, something that all the human cultivators did not expect happened.
The bright moon sprinkled its brilliance.
The brilliance turned into moon swords, which swam like rainbows and fell from the sky.
However, these moon swords were not aimed at the Demons.
… They were aimed at the human cultivators!
Boom!
The palaces collapsed one after another, causing smoke and dust to rise. Countless sawdust and dust were raised.
Then these moon swords cut through the cultivators' bodies.
Wherever the moon sword passed, the human cultivators' bodies, magic treasures, and everything else would disappear in an instant.
Death shocked everyone in the area.
It was not only the death, but also the betrayal of the Bright Moon Formation that was supposed to protect Longcheng Pass.
"Attack! Kill all the human cultivators in Longcheng Pass. Don't leave a single one alive. Kill them all!" A shocking voice spread throughout the city.
In the shock of the human cultivators, the tide-like Demons rushed toward the human cultivators at a faster speed without hesitation, as if they were aided by the wind.
Heaven and earth rumbled, and the wind and clouds were endless.
Within tens of thousands of miles of Longcheng Pass, many magic arts caused a lot of fluctuations, causing the spiritual power of heaven and earth to riot. The earth was shattered, and buildings were overturned, as if it was the end of the world.
An unknown number of demonic cultivators rushed out crazily.
The cultivators of Longcheng Pass, who were surrounded and still in a confused state, did not understand the specific situation and still had to face the attack of the Bright Moon Formation, but at this moment, they still roared and chose to fight.
Because behind them was the Central Spirit Region, their homeland, their sect, and the place where thousands of their compatriots lived.
They had no way out.
In this case, they could only risk their lives to kill.
In the chaotic Longcheng Pass, more demonic beasts suddenly appeared and rushed toward the human cultivators.
That was … the army of demonic beasts controlled by the cultivators of the Spirit Huan Sect!
One by one, the human cultivators fell heavily from the sky to the ground. Their bodies collided with the hard ground, making a dull sound.
Some corpses of body cultivators even blasted a deep pit in the ground.
Blood flowed from their corpses, and they fainted.
From time to time, buildings collapsed.
This was a massacre that had been planned for a long time.
But it was not just the massacre of the human cultivators by the Demons.
It was the massacre of the human cultivators by the Demons, demonic beasts, some "humans", and the Bright Moon Formation.
Battles broke out everywhere in Longcheng Pass. The human cultivators suffered a heavy blow, but they still fearlessly rushed toward the Demons.
…
In the southwest of Longcheng Pass.
"Why? Why? " A seventh-realm cultivator of the Spirit Huan Sect looked at the human cultivators standing in front of the Demons' camp and asked with reluctance, doubt, and anger.
Because those human cultivators were the high-level cultivators of the Spirit Huan Sect.
He did not get an answer.
The high-level cultivators of the Spirit Huan Sect did not seem to hear his question. They did not even look at him.
In the end, the seventh-realm cultivator of the Spirit Huan Sect, with the anger of being betrayed, the grief of the imminent fall of Longcheng Pass, and the confusion of the future, commanded his pet beast to perform an escape technique and charge toward the Demons that were surging like a tide.
He wanted to rush in front of the powerful cultivators of his sect and ask them personally what was going on.
He wanted to ask them why the Demons had entered Longcheng Pass, why they were standing in the Demons' camp, and why the Bright Moon Formation controlled by the Spirit Huan Sect had attacked the human cultivators …
However, he was only at the seventh realm. He had only leaped a few dozen feet when a moon sword flashed through the air. His body was immediately split in half and blood spurted out.
"Owww!" His pet beast let out a painful howl and continued to charge toward the Demons without fear of death.
Beasts were loyal to their masters.
Why would humans betray their own kind?
This question existed in the hearts of all the cultivators in Longcheng Pass.
.....
On the southern city wall.
The Ancient Sword's master looked at the falling sword cultivators of his sect, and his expression gradually turned serious. His voice was colder than the edge of his sword. "Kill them all, and Longcheng Pass will be defended."
The Southern Sword Pavilion guarded the southern city wall.
This was supposed to be the most idle and easy task.
But now, it had become the most important and difficult task.
Longcheng Pass had fallen into an abyss of suffering, and all the regions had fallen.
Thus, the southern city wall became the last line of defense for the human cultivators in Longcheng Pass.
Once the southern city wall fell, the Demons would be able to march straight into the Central Spirit Region.
The Devil Cultivators surged like a tide, and it seemed that they could not be killed no matter what.
But there was no enemy in the world that could not be killed.
As long as they killed all the people in front of them, Longcheng Pass would naturally be defended.
All the sword cultivators of the Southern Sword Pavilion held this belief.
