Soon.
The meeting of all the senior executives of Cangwu Immortal City hastily concluded.
Although the lord of the Immortal City expressed great confidence, believing that with the foundation of Cangwu Immortal City, it would definitely not meet the same fate as the previous three Immortal Cities.
Nonetheless, many of the senior figures of the Immortal City still harbored concerns.
Better safe than sorry.
Inside the Flying Immortal Hall.
After the Hall Master of the Flying Immortal Hall returned, the solemnity on his face never eased.
A moment passed.
The Hall Master of the Flying Immortal Hall walked out from the Flying Immortal Hall and approached a Grade-A Cave Mansion.
“I wish to see Master Yun Zhenzi,” declared the Hall Master of the Flying Immortal Hall stating his purpose.
With numerous demonic beings converging, Cangwu Immortal City was in jeopardy of being overturned. The Hall Master decided to come and alert Lin Yuan.
As one of the high-ranking executives of Cangwu Immortal City, he couldn’t possibly abandon the city, but Lin Yuan was different. His ties with Cangwu Immortal City weren’t as deep, and he definitely had the means to disengage himself and leave.
“My master is in closed-door cultivation. If the Hall Master has any matters, you can tell me directly, and I will inform my master,” Yun Zhenzi spoke softly.
Over the recent two hundred years, the Hall Master of Flying Immortal Hall frequently visited Lin Yuan, and knowing their good relationship, Yun Zhenzi certainly did not dare to neglect.
“Tell you?” The Hall Master of the Flying Immortal Hall fell silent for a while.
The gathering of a large number of demonic beings towards the region of Cangwu Immortal City was a top-secret matter within the city. Should it leak out, it could very likely cause many immortals of the city to flee in advance.
Even the Hall Master of the Flying Immortal Hall only dared to remind Lin Yuan in person. To tell this servant before him and then have him relay the message to Lin Yuan? There was still the risk of it leaking out.
“If the master emerges from seclusion, let me know,” said the Hall Master of the Flying Immortal Hall, and then he turned and left.
Now that Cangwu Immortal City had entered the highest state of alert, the Hall Master of the Flying Immortal Hall also had many tasks to attend to, thus he decided to wait until Lin Yuan finished his seclusion before alerting him.
…
Billions of miles away from Cangwu Immortal City.
Countless demonic beings converged, filled with terrifying Demonic Qi, and it even subtly began to transform the Immortal Realm towards the Demon Abyss.
Among the multitude of demonic beings, six colossal figures stood prominently, their presence profound, seemingly like miniature Demon Abysses, with numerous demonic beings around worshiping these six colossal figures.
Nearly all demonic beings possess very low intelligence, basically running on mere instinct.
However, among the infinite demonic beings, there’s a minuscule chance that an Emperor of Demonic Beings is born. These emperors, having devoured countless demonic beings and aggregated a portion of the essence from the Ancestor of the Demon Abyss, thereby gain sentience.
In some ways, these Emperors of Demonic Beings are akin to the ‘incarnations’ of the Ancestor of the Demon Abyss, and hence they possess the ability to command and control other demonic beings.
The Emperors of Demonic Beings born from the infinite demonic ranks have extremely terrifying strength. In past wars between immortals and demons, at most only one Emperor of Demonic Beings would appear.
But in this war between immortals and demons, the number of Emperors of Demonic Beings surpassed those in all previous wars, which is also the reason why three Immortal Cities were successively breached in recent decades.
An Emperor of Demonic Beings, leading a large number of demonic beings, could at most rampage outside the Immortal City, unable to breach it.
However, two or three, or even five Emperors of Demonic Beings joining forces, would have a substantial chance of breaking through an Immortal City.
“Cangwu Immortal City… such tasty food…” The Emperor of Demonic Beings eyed the distance, exactly where Cangwu Immortal City was located.
Ordinary demonic beings devouring immortals at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage or the Mahayana Realm was already an ultimate delicacy, but to Emperors of Demonic Beings… even a Golden Immortal wasn’t regarded highly.
The Emperors of Demonic Beings most desired to devour Jade Immortals, the stronger the Jade Immortals, the greater the aid to the Emperors of Demonic Beings.
However, unfortunately, Jade Immortals were too rare. Across the vast expanse of the thirty-three Immortal Domains, Jade Immortals were mostly concentrated in the Immortal Cities, which was why the Emperors of Demonic Beings collaborated to breach the Immortal Cities.
Not only could their subordinate demonic beings feast on a large number of immortals, but these Emperors of Demonic Beings could also partake in many Jade Immortals.
“The power we have gathered now is almost enough, we can make a move towards Cangwu Immortal City,” a leading Emperor of Demonic Beings spoke out.
As Emperors of Demonic Beings, being wise, they had already begun to assess the situation, not willing to act before they were certain they could breach Cangwu Immortal City, they would only patiently wait until the gathered force could decisively tear through Cangwu Immortal City.
“Good.”
“If we breach Cangwu Immortal City this time, I want to devour at least twenty Jade Immortals.”
An Emperor of Demonic Beings to the right spoke, emerging from devouring countless demonic beings.
But devouring demonic beings and devouring immortals weren’t the same at all.
To the Emperors of Demonic Beings, devouring demonic beings was merely a quantitative accumulation, such as healing injuries through consuming a large number of demonic beings.
But devouring immortals? It’s more like a complement to themselves in some aspect.
In their very instincts, the Emperors of Demonic Beings knew, the more immortals they devoured, the more complete they themselves became.
“Twenty immortals?” An Emperor of Demonic Beings to the left roared, “I also want twenty Jade Immortals.”
“Ordinary Jade Immortals are all yours, but those top Jade Immortals, they are mine,” the leading Emperor also chimed in.
Top Jade Immortals were more beneficial to the Emperors of Demonic Beings, but comparatively, top Jade Immortals were much rarer and more difficult to deal with.
…
Years later.
Under the lead of the six Emperors of Demonic Beings, the near infinite demonic beings had already arrived outside Cangwu Immortal City.
Evil and twisted Demonic Qi blanketed the air, and only at this moment did the many immortals of Cangwu Immortal City realize the dire situation they were in.
“Demonic beings have come to kill?”
“What do we do, what do we do? I heard that these demonic beings have already breached three Immortal Cities.”
“Let’s go out, I want to flee.”
“Go out? Inside the Immortal City, relying on the city’s protection, there is still a chance to survive, but fleeing? I’m afraid you’d be devoured by Those demonic beings immediately.”
…
Inside Cangwu Immortal City, after a brief moment of panic, the many immortals somewhat calmed down. Every immortal who had cultivated to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage was cunning and quick-witted; they quickly realized that hiding within the Immortal City was their only chance for survival.
“Fellow daoists, the demonic beings are just outside, to withstand these demonic beings, we need the power of all daoists,” the voice of the Immortal City’s master instantaneously appeared in the ears of all immortals, “Now, all daoists, channel all your Mana and Immortal Power into the ground of the Immortal City.”
The enormous Cangwu Immortal City, built over generations by Jade Immortals, had long become a large-scale war Immortal Artifact.
And to activate this large-scale war Immortal Artifact, it relied solely on a vast number of immortals, only in this way could the power of Cangwu Immortal City be fully unleashed.
The power of the Emperor of Demonic Beings surpasses that of top-tier Jade Immortals, coupled with endless demonic creatures… To deal with them, one must rely on Cangwu Immortal City.
Only by unleashing the power of Cangwu Immortal City, this colossal war Immortal Artifact, can there be hope to resist the Emperor of Demonic Beings and the infinite demonic creatures.
The many immortals within the city, also realizing the dire situation, hesitated not to pour all their Mana and immortal power into the ground of the Immortal City.
Rumbling loudly.
The massive Cangwu Immortal City, as if coming to life, burst forth with terrifying radiance, spreading towards all directions.
Countless demonic creatures at the edges, unable to evacuate in time, were instantly pulverized.
…
“Hmph, relying on the power of the Immortal City again, the same old tactic.”
Deep within the endless demonic creatures, six Emperors of Demonic Beings watched with cold detachment, their combined strength was such that they could confront Cangwu Immortal City head-on and even suppress it.
But to ensure their safety, they still sent out a large number of demonic creatures to approach Cangwu Immortal City actively.
Millions, tens of millions, and hundreds of millions of demonic creatures died under the envelopment of the celestial radiance, also depleting a considerable part of Cangwu Immortal City’s foundation.
“Where is the Emperor of Demonic Beings?”
Within the city, the lord and other top brass were slightly anxious.
With so many demonic creatures gathering outside the city, there must be an Emperor of Demonic Beings covertly commanding them. The ultimate strike of the Immortal City was also reserved for that Emperor of Demonic Beings.
Only by killing or severely wounding the Emperor of Demonic Beings is there hope for victory, otherwise, the Emperor will continually summon an endless stream of demonic creatures to attack the city.
Time passed by.
The endless stream of demonic creatures did not diminish at all.
The lord of the Immortal City and other top brass began to despair.
At that moment.
A hazy black Demonic Qi quietly spread closer.
Six towering figures suddenly appeared in front of Cangwu Immortal City, raising their right hands and pressing down.
“Not good.”
The faces of the lord of the Immortal City and other top brass drastically changed.
“Six Emperors of Demonic Beings, there are actually six Emperors of Demonic Beings!”
The lord of the Immortal City felt parts of the city’s structure collapsing. The six Emperors of Demonic Beings had been hiding in the shadows, using endless demonic creatures to deplete most of the city’s power before appearing silently to deliver a fatal blow.
“It’s over.”
Despair surged within the heart of the lord of the Immortal City.
He even felt that if it weren’t for trying to take Cangwu Immortal City without damage, the six Emperors of Demonic Beings might not have given their all; otherwise, Cangwu Immortal City would’ve been breached long ago.
“Demonic creatures have entered the city already.”
The lord of the Immortal City looked downward, vaguely seeing countless Demonic Qi seeping into the city walls.
…
“The demonic creatures have broken in, run.”
“Run? Where can we run to? Outside are demonic creatures, now they have come inside, where can we run to?”
“Since we can’t escape, let’s fight the demonic creatures.”
…
Inside the Immortal City, it was utter chaos, many immortals were panicked or resolute, and some fled deeper into the city.
Cave Mansion Area.
Yun Zhenzi, through the grand formation of the cave mansion, observed the entire situation of the Immortal City.
“Is the Immortal City about to fall?”
Yun Zhenzi’s face turned pale as he looked towards the exterior of the city, where the six towering Emperors of Demonic Beings and the endless stream of incoming demonic creatures were.
“Master.”
“Quickly inform the master.”
Before the appearance of the six Emperors of Demonic Beings, Cangwu Immortal City was on the upper hand against the invasion of the endless demonic creatures, slaying as many as approached.
Until the six Emperors took action, the situation reversed instantly, making Yun Zhenzi realize something terrible was about to happen.
…
Cultivation Area.
Lin Yuan’s brows furrowed deeply.
“Is the Immortal City about to be breached?”
Upon receiving Yun Zhenzi’s notification, Lin Yuan opened his eyes.
He felt he was just a whisper away from the Space-Time Seventh Realm; a few more years of secluded cultivation, maybe even just a few months, would allow him to step into a whole new level of the Space-Time Domain.
“Has the situation gotten this dire?”
Lin Yuan stood up, walked out of the cultivation area, and joined Yun Zhenzi. Through the grand formation of the cave mansion, he looked towards the entire situation of the Immortal City.
“Master, what should we do now? There are six Emperors of Demonic Beings outside,” Yun Zhenzi’s voice trembled slightly, having experienced more than one battle between immortals and demons, he knew how terrifying the Emperors of Demonic Beings were.
They were the terrifying beings that surpassed the top-tier Jade Immortals.
“What to do?”
Lin Yuan was not in a good mood, glanced at Yun Zhenzi with his pallid face, stretched out his arm, and casually reached towards the sky.
In an instant.
All the infinite demonic creatures vanished without a trace, as if wiped from existence; outside Cangwu Immortal City, the sky cleared and all was silent.
Yun Zhenzi’s mouth fell open.
Because at that moment, he clearly saw Lin Yuan, with one hand, grab and hold the myriad demonic creatures and the six Emperors of Demonic Beings.
Those six towering Emperors of Demonic Beings were no match for even one-tenth of Lin Yuan’s finger, caught between his fingers.
