This is what cultivating immortals is like

On December 6, the second stage of the player professional competition ended, and the top 64 of the division were announced.

On December 12, the third phase of the regional finals begins. A points system is adopted to advance and compete for the championship, runner-up, and third place in each region.

In the Holy Land of the Human Race, Zhu Qilan is advancing in an orderly manner. Although her ranking is not as good as that of Zhu Dao, she is undoubtedly much easier than others. She has not yet met an opponent who can give her all her strength.

December 15th.

Qin Ziyou said that on the training day for the demon invasion, the Holy Land was calm and everything was business as usual. Seven Kills City continued to be closed. The students were busy with the competition. No one noticed that the atmosphere today was different from usual.

"Oh, my life is getting more and more difficult."

Lu Bei stood beside his small arena, looking up at the sky and lamenting that life was not easy. In the background was an unlucky student who fell headfirst and grabbed the ground with his head.

From the opening of the conference to today, fifteen days into the competition, more than 60% of the elite students from various countries have been eliminated, and the business in the small arena is also getting worse day by day.

The schedule is free, the market price has returned to normal, and the fun-lovers cannot raise the ticket price, so the extra income of the two of them is decreasing day by day.

Rumble————

In the distant sky, a black cloud slowly gathered.

If there was a seemingly invisible demonic energy dissipating, it was not obvious at first, but soon attracted the attention of the monks and instructors in the Holy Land.

Demonic spirit!

Lu Bei looked intently into the distance, recalling what Qin Ziyou said to him.

According to reports from the Holy Land’s informants in the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom, the main reason why the demon clan launched a sneak attack on the Human Race Holy Land was due to the unstable internal political situation and those who planned to export conflicts to the outside world.

In addition to testing the Ancient Fengxuan Formation, this battle also has several strategic goals, such as attacking Tianfu City and Tianliang City, destroying the administrative structure of the Human Race's Holy Land, or capturing Daxia Ji Huang's family alive.

If it can be accomplished in one fell swoop, this sneak attack will become the clarion call for the monster clan to invade the human race.

If not...

Reconsideration.

It sounds like the country's national conditions are corrupt and the situation is very bad. If we don't take the initiative to export the contradictions, it will inevitably lead to internal troubles and chaos.

The fact is indeed the case. In the worst situation, Wu Zhou's inner struggle is only between the royal family and the Huangji Sect, which are not worthy of carrying shoes for the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.

The Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons can fight against the entire human race with the power of one country. It is stronger than ever, but it lacks an absolute core to suppress all forces.

Looking into the reason, it was still the fault of the first generation Demon Emperor.

He is too strong.

It’s also too unreliable.

This guy created the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters with absolute force and left suddenly without leaving any descendants. Although there are one emperor and eight kings taking turns to take charge, and nine bloodlines will forever control the country's fortunes, with so many forces and so many mouths, it's hard to believe they can coexist peacefully.

The First Generation Demon Emperor: Hurry up, come on together!

The rest of the demon kings: What are you doing? If you have the ability to fight in a duel!

The demon clan respects strength, and the first demon king suppressed the Eight Wastelands. At its peak, the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom expanded its territory to the great wilderness area north of the Buzhou Mountains, which stretched for more than tens of thousands of miles.

The latecomers could not convince the public with their strength, not to mention the power of the world, and it was difficult to suppress civil strife. The land area was shrinking day by day, and they were forced to play the role of decentralization and checks and balances.

Checks and balances are one of the emperor's mental tricks, and they are also the most commonly used operations. Their purpose is to divide power, prevent one family from becoming dominant, and prevent the imperial power from being emptied out.

After checks and balances, the national power formed a stable triangle, with left, right, and center loyal to the emperor.

But as time progresses, checks and balances bring about irreconcilable contradictions, and internal strife ensues. The most intuitive example is that in the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons, one emperor and eight kings took turns to take charge, and every family had an emperor. Now, whoever has the strength will take the throne. There are several royal bloodlines that have not given birth to a demon emperor for several reincarnations.

This time the demon clan exported conflicts to the human race's holy land. The planners came from the radicals of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom. They used the ancient sealing profound formation to persuade the demon emperor and won the support of the three royal bloodlines of Mirage Dragon, Gu Eagle and Nine-tailed Fox. It can barely be regarded as Half of the political leanings of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.

The internal fighting is too tiring, so we might as well take a longer view. If you don't get involved, the three of us will get involved first.

…

"Monster clan?!"

"Why are there monsters in the Holy Land of the Human Race? A surprise assessment?"

"Probably not. Look at the examiners. They didn't know that there would be monsters appearing."

"...

The students looked into the distance, and except for a few who were alert, the rest didn't pay much attention.

What they are stepping on is Qisha City, one of the six major cities in the Holy Land of the Human Race. It is a solid stone among the solid rocks of the Human Race. Even if the invading Monster Race has the power to overwhelm the rivers and oceans, their lives will be in vain today.

The students were talking a lot, but the instructors did not dare to be careless. The average cultivation level of each person was at the Tribulation Stage, and the sense of crisis was far beyond what the students could compare with. The moment they saw the demon clan entering the scene, they protected their students without even thinking.

This is the holy land of the human race, not the front line of the northern border. If the monster race can invade Qisha City without anyone noticing, they must be well prepared and have a big plan.

A scream pierced the sky, the alarm bells of the Seven Kills City rang, the ground lit up with a bright white light, and rising into the sky with the murderous aura, there was also a large formation protecting the entire city.

The divine light of the great array is majestic and unshakable, the dark demonic clouds reach the sky and the earth, and the black and white are clearly distinguishable. Before the war begins, there is an extremely terrifying energy turbulence raging in the void.

Seeing this, the students also realized that something was wrong. Some monks from the Holy Land came in a hurry, indicating that the teleportation array of Seven Kills City was destroyed and they were unable to contact the outside world.

The examiners lined up on both sides, some flew high into the sky with Qin Ziyou and the other three inner sect elders, and some stayed behind to protect the participating students.

As a student, Lu Bei seemed to have been forgotten by his mentor Zhu Xiushi, standing guard in the small arena alone.

His eyes were slightly narrowed, golden light flashed in his eyes, and he frowned as he looked at the examiner high in the sky.

"Everyone is a demon cultivator... Can it be possible to fight against the demon clan with the blood of the demon clan? Or is this the only way to crack the ancient Xuanxuan Formation?"

You can only get beaten, you are too passive.

Lu Bei didn't believe that the Holy Land had been prepared for a long time, so he came up with such a response strategy. There should be a big move in the future.

Rumble————

The demonic energy is like a dragon, covering the sky and the sun, and the endless galaxy starlight rolls down.

In an instant, star points of light criss-crossed, and the star array hung over the Seven Kills City. Three hundred and sixty-five bright rays of light circulated endlessly, weaving the boundless starry sky.

The terrifying black cloud slowly pressed down, touching the Seven Kills City formation. Between the alternation of black and white, energy collided fiercely.

After a while, several star gates opened, and figures holding giant flags were vaguely visible.

The heavy pressure as vast as the abyss rolled out and spread to every corner of Qisha City with overwhelming force. The heavy pressure made it difficult for the students to move even an inch. Even some examiners and instructors had some breathing difficulties at this moment and could not help but shed cold sweat.

In the center, there are eight figures standing in the four star gates, men and women, different heights and thinness, some are handsome and beautiful, and some are beginning to take human form.

Behind them, the great demon in the Lily Stage rolled up the demon cloud and was covered in starlight. If the combined body of the demon clan was considered to be a powerful body capable of slaying tribulations, hundreds of tribulation stages were dispatched just to target the Seven Kills City.

"Is this the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons..."

Lu Bei's eyelids twitched and his expression suddenly became serious. The high-level map was really scary, and the human race was also scary. The northern front had been able to resist the demon clan for so many years, and the water inside was probably deeper than he imagined.

"I am a mirage!"

Among the eight figures, the leading man stood up and locked eyes with the three inner sect elders: "I'll lend you my head for today. If I'm rude, I'll keep my eyes open."

Mirage was born in the Mirage lineage, one of the eight kings, and his words were full of unquestionable domineering.

He is tall and long, with handsome facial features and a pair of dazzling black eyes with magical power, as if he can see through the past and present life. His cultivation is the strongest among the demon clan.

Mirage, one of the main generals in this battle, was ordered to capture Qisha City, and then lead seven demon kings to fight in Tianxiang City to support another demon army.

Mirage was a little dissatisfied with the orders from his superiors. He wanted to kill a chicken with a bull's-eye. He led seven demon kings, and his troops were so powerful that he should be sent as a vanguard to attack Tianfu City where Emperor Daxia Ji was.

It's not the Seven Kills City where a bunch of human imps play house.

Having said that, the superior's fist is too big, and he has no chance of winning if he is reasonable, so he can only act according to the order.

"The demon clan..."

Qin Ziyou looked gloomy and said indifferently: "Where did you enter the territory of the human race, and where did you enter the holy land of the human race?"

Not only Qin Ziyou, but the other two inner sect elders Qin Ziheng and Qin Zijing are also particularly concerned about this issue. They know that the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom has channels to sneak into the human territory, and they cooperate to let them enter the Holy Land. However, the influx of so many big monsters in one breath is really frustrating. They were in a cold sweat.

The human race has internal agents in the demon clan, and so does the demon clan. The two sides infiltrate each other, and some undercover agents may have forgotten their last names long ago.

Mirage had no interest in answering Qin Ziyou's question, and had no obligation. His whole body was filled with energy, and demonic clouds rolled out, and the figure of a dragon swallowing clouds and spitting mist appeared in the sky.

The curtain of arrogant and majestic momentum opened like a demon god coming into the world. Over a dozen demon examiners were overwhelmed, gritting their teeth and straightening their bodies, slowly falling under the boundless pressure.

"Nothing."

Rumble————

It was only then that the sound of rolling thunder fell along with the strong wind.

The instructors sensed the crisis and either used magic weapons or magical powers to firmly protect the students of each family. They were as safe as Zhu Xiushi and directly sent the Zhu family's disciples to the Mustard Seed Taoist Temple.

Except Lubei.

After sweeping away the students, Zhu Xiushi took out the colorful stone and switched to Lu Bei's physical body. Feeling that it was not safe yet, he moved to the small arena and stood obediently behind Lu Bei like a dog's legs.

When the sky fell, the tall man held it up, and she held onto this thick leg.

boom! ! !

Thunder exploded, starlight portals opened one after another, and the lily-body demon descended on the Seven Kills City, bathing in starlight armor and killing the team of tutors and examiners.

Lu Bei narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at the army of monsters in the Fusion Stage.

It is true that Qin Ziyou said that there were people who were wearing the skin of demons and were friendly forces, but in this situation, it was difficult for him to distinguish between friends and foes. In order to protect the safety of the children, he had no choice but to kill them.

Bang! !

Black shadows fell from the sky, crushing the ring with their feet.

The huge body has two curved horns on top of its head, surrounded by a thick and extremely rich demonic aura. Its cold eyes look down at the two Lu Bei.

"You again, are there so many tauren in the demon clan?"
