Chapter 130 Battle of Chengzhou
The Eternal Night Demon Saint, the Linxu Demon Saint, the Ziji Demon Saint, the Cangmang Demon Saint, the Tianli Demon Saint, the Lingyun Feather Saint, the Zhengtian Feather Saint, the Yunjin Feather Saint, the Yunxuan Dragon Saint, the Tianli Dragon Saint, the Lize Dragon Saint, the Xingchao Dragon Saint, and the Daoxi Dragon Saint took the lead in confronting the leaders of King Pingyang Zhao Wenqian, King Chengling Zhao Wenxu, King Guangling Zhao Wengu, Marquis Guannei Zhao Pingxin, Marquis Hanshou Zhao Yundao, Marquis Pingchang Zhao Yungu, Marquis Huaiyin Zhao Wenyan, as well as Daoist Zhenyuan and Daoist Taiqing.
King Zhao Wenqian of Pingyang stepped forward, drew his sword, pointed it at the group of demon saints opposite him, and said loudly: "You demons and evil spirits, how dare you invade the territory of my human race today? Do you think that my human race is without people?" The Eternal Night Demon Saint sneered: "Hmph, your human race has been encroaching on the land of my demon race for many years. Now we are just here to seek justice."
At this moment, Daoist Zhenyuan stepped forward, holding a whisk. “A demon is a demon. You are just making excuses. There is a predetermined order in this world. You are not content with staying in the deep mountains and forests, but instead try to compete with the human race. You are only courting death.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he unleashed a spell. The demon saints were not to be outdone; the Eternal Night Demon Saint waved his hands, unleashing a surge of dark power to resist the spell. In an instant, magical light crisscrossed the battlefield. The Heavenly Feather Saint spread his wings and soared into the sky, countless feathers shooting like arrows towards the enemy ranks.
Guan Nei Lu Zhaoping shouted, raising his shield to protect everyone, and yelled, "Archers, prepare!" The soldiers behind him drew their bows and nocked their arrows, the arrowheads gleaming coldly. With a command, arrows rained down on Zheng Tianyu Sheng in the air, and a fierce battle between humans and demons began.
Soon, the demon army, the winged army, and the dragon army broke through the Chengzhou defense line of the Zhao Kingdom. Two hundred million human troops clashed with hundreds of millions of demon, winged, and dragon troops.
The battlefield was filled with deafening battle cries and flashing magical lights. Prince Pingyang, Zhao Wenqian, wielding his sword, charged into the enemy ranks at the forefront. His swordsmanship was fierce, and with each strike, tens of thousands of demon soldiers fell. But on the demon side, the Eternal Night Demon Saint also unleashed his demonic magic, and dark power surged towards the human army like a tidal wave.
Just as humanity was beginning to falter, auspicious light suddenly descended from the sky. A white-robed immortal appeared, riding a flying sword; it was none other than the reclusive Master Xuanqing. Master Xuanqing waved his whisk, and a powerful force dispelled the surging darkness. Then, he chanted incantations, and countless talismans flew from his body, transforming into shields protecting the human soldiers.
The human army's morale soared, while on the winged race's side, Zheng Tian Yu Sheng, seeing this, flapped his enormous wings and charged towards Xuan Qing Shangren. Xuan Qing Shangren remained calm and unperturbed, engaging Zheng Tian Yu Sheng in a fierce battle in the air. As their figures clashed, energy fluctuations spread outwards, blasting many soldiers below away. The battle between the two sides entered a white-hot phase, and no one could predict the final outcome.
In the heat of battle between Master Xuanqing and Saint Zhengtianyu, Saint Zhengtianyu suddenly flapped his wings, unleashing a powerful gust of wind that whipped up sand and gravel towards Master Xuanqing. Master Xuanqing dodged to the side, simultaneously throwing out a gourd from his waist. A beam of golden light shot from the gourd's mouth, striking Saint Zhengtianyu directly. Unable to dodge in time, Saint Zhengtianyu was struck on the left wing by the golden light, and his body swayed as he flew backward.
Meanwhile, King Pingyang, Zhao Wenqian, seized the opportunity and led the human army in a counterattack. He led his soldiers in a sword formation, and wherever they went, the demon army retreated in disarray. Seeing the situation was dire, the Eternal Night Demon Saint, together with other demon saints, unleashed a forbidden demonic technique. In an instant, dark clouds filled the sky, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and the phantom of a giant black dragon appeared in mid-air.
Sensing the approaching danger, Master Xuanqing abandoned Zheng Tianyu Saint and rushed towards the demon saints to stop the release of the demonic magic. However, it was too late; the black dragon phantom roared down. At this critical moment, the earth cracked open, and an ancient array rose up, its light shining brightly and blocking the black dragon's attack.
Although the human race achieved minor victories in certain battles, the overall defenses of Chengzhou were gradually collapsing. Countless humans perished on the Chengzhou battlefield, their blood flowing like rivers. The Zhao Kingdom's strength in Chengzhou was utterly incomparable to the invading forces of the demon race, the winged race, and the dragon race, and they could only retreat continuously.
