However, Lingwu City has extraordinary significance. It is the de facto "dividing line" between human beings and demons. As long as this city is still in their hands, it will be difficult for the Central Region immortal cultivators to enter the Annan Six Continents.

Therefore, the demon clan also attaches great importance to Lingwu City. Not only does it maintain every section of the city wall at all times, but it also deploys the fourth-level mid-level defensive formation "Nine Gates of Heavenly Demon Array".

Even the very few demon cultivators from the demon clan who know the formations have been sent here by the Fire Phoenix Clan to personally inspect and control the formations.

The degree of emphasis is evident.

Five hundred miles, four hundred miles, three hundred miles

The outline of the ancient city is looming, and after reaching this distance, the level of danger increases sharply.

If you are less lucky, it is not impossible to directly encounter the demon cultivator.

As the distance approached, everyone's expressions became more serious, and many monks couldn't help but take out their magic weapons.

Beside Liu Yu, Zhuo Mengzhen and Guo Poyun already held their respective magic weapons in their hands.

"The "Prince's Court Meeting" is indeed a good time. The number of demon cultivators encountered along the way is obviously much smaller."

"Hope everything goes well."

Recalling what I saw and heard along the way, and comparing it with the last time I came here, I quickly got a gratifying answer: the number of demon cultivators has indeed decreased significantly.

Liu Yu took a deep breath, trying to calm down the fluctuations in her heart, and her expression gradually became serious.

After approaching two hundred miles, the three spiritual ships stayed in the void. Zhang Tao and the others made no further movements, as if they were waiting for something.

…

"Zhen Lei, have you ever thought that you would end up like this?"

Fifty miles away from Lingwu City, a humanoid demon cultivator with bright feathers on his ears and some red hair on his body said with a sneer.

Generally speaking, demon cultivators can only transform into human form after they have reached the fourth level of cultivation.

However, there are some cases where it can be transformed in advance.

This is the case for this demon cultivator from the Fire Bird Tribe who has red hair all over his body and red feathers on his ears after his transformation.

But no matter how much he ridiculed, the target remained indifferent and silently pushed the mine cart forward without any intention of paying attention.

"So what if it ranks on the "real person list" in the Central Region?"

"Aren't you reduced to a prisoner by your subordinates?!"

Seeing the other party's reaction, the red-haired demon cultivator felt as if he was being slighted. He felt an unknown fire rising in his heart, and he couldn't help but continue to condescend and taunt.

The so-called "real person list" is a very valuable list in Zhongyu.

The Central Territory is vast and rich in resources, and its resources for cultivating immortals are far richer than those in the Four Territories. Therefore, the number of Golden Core cultivators far exceeds those in the Four Territories.

Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. For some unknown reason, the Daqian court made such a list and made it public to the world.

The list only includes one hundred Jindan real people, ranked according to their strength.

Being able to be ranked on the "real person list" proves that the monk's strength is among the best in the entire Central Territory and has surpassed countless peers.

This list was issued by the Daqian Imperial Court, and it goes without saying that it is valuable and has been recognized by most monks.

This demon cultivator from the Fire Bird Tribe is named "Fire Feihong", and the power of blood in his body is very powerful. He is considered to be the most gifted genius of this generation of the Fire Bird Tribe.

Originally, demon cultivators from the Fire Bird Clan could only have the surname "Quie", while only the Fire Phoenix Clan could have the surname "Huo".

However, because he was attracted by an incarnation of the Fire Phoenix tribe, he was very optimistic about Huo Feihong's future, so he made an exception and gave him the surname "Huo", allowing the monster to be named after him.

The "Zhenlei Zhenren" who was ridiculed by Huo Feihong is ranked 96th on the list of real people in the Central Region. He possesses an extremely rare spirit body with thunder attributes and is extremely powerful.

While on a mission, Huo Feihong unexpectedly faced Master Zhenlei. After a fierce battle, he was defeated by a large margin and had to escape in embarrassment.

Although he did not lose his life, the demon has always been haunted.

Later, thousands of miles away from Lingwu City, during a daily patrol mission, the two met unexpectedly again.

It was just that on that mission, Huo Feihong only accompanied him. In the end, the fifth princess of the Fire Phoenix tribe took action and successfully defeated "Zhenlei Zhenren".

At Huo Feihong's plea, he was not killed, but was kept in Lingwu City. This demon wanted to wash away the shame of defeat.

It couldn't accept that it would actually lose to a human monk.

Therefore, after putting the "Forbidden Spirit Chain" on Zhenlei Zhenlei, he would come to check on this person from time to time, and would often insult him with words.

But perhaps it was because there had been no accidents for decades that the demon relaxed its vigilance.

Huo Feihong didn't notice that thin dark clouds gradually gathered in the originally clear sky.

In the space, the thunder attribute aura gradually became stronger.

"Kangdang" "Kangdang"

The sound of the minecart moving suddenly stopped and disappeared.

"Um?"

Seeing Zhenlei's figure suddenly paused, Huo Feihong's eyes flashed with confusion.

Immediately, a smile appeared on its face, and the other party finally couldn't bear the humiliation and began to become angry.

But when the demon consciousness glanced over, he only heard a few low and firm words, and then a strong sense of crisis suddenly appeared in his spiritual sense!

"Thank God for giving me an unconquerable soul."

"I am the master of my own destiny!"

"I am the commander of my own soul!"

Zhenlei Zhenlei, with his eyes showing a bit of vicissitudes of life, his black hair hanging casually on his shoulders, and blue thunder patterns engraved on his arms, suddenly stopped.

He said softly, as if speaking to himself.

As soon as the words fell, an extremely powerful spiritual pressure suddenly bloomed from the person's body and swept across the surroundings.

Like a violent storm, it overwhelms large tracts of vegetation.

This level of spiritual pressure far exceeds the peak of ordinary golden elixirs and reaches areas that are difficult for ordinary monks to reach.

This is a peak that ordinary golden elixirs cannot reach in a lifetime!

"boom"

The sudden appearance of powerful spiritual pressure shocked Huo Feihong's body, and a bit of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

Before the demon could recover, a somewhat cold voice seemed to appear directly in his ears.

"Thousands of Thunder"

After spitting out two cold characters, Master Zhenlei raced against time to activate the spell with both hands.

As the words fell, his spiritual pressure climbed to an unprecedented peak!

Decades of imprisonment and living in a small, dark space every day did not diminish his fighting spirit.

On the contrary, as time goes by, the belief in my heart becomes stronger!

"boom!!!"

In an instant, the situation changed.

The black clouds in the sky, which were originally so thin that they were invisible to the naked eye, quickly gathered above the two, and the thunder-attribute spiritual energy that was everywhere in the space was also poured into the dark clouds at an extremely fast speed.

In just half a breath, a dark cloud covering a radius of twenty miles has quickly taken shape.

Between the rolling black clouds, streaks of blue lightning suddenly appeared!

"Zi Zi"

On the exposed arm, the lightning lines became extremely bright, and there was a sound like thunder and lightning flashing.

Zhenlei Zhenlei's long hair danced like a thunder snake, his right hand pointed to the sky and his left hand pointed to the ground, instantly resonating with the dark clouds covering a radius of twenty miles.

Then, before Huo Feihong could react, his right hand pointing to the sky suddenly pointed at the demon.

The violent dark clouds in the sky also moved with it!

"Click"

As the dark clouds rolled, a ball of lightning the size of a human head appeared.

Among them, flashing thunder that could destroy the vitality of all things suddenly fell towards Huo Feihong below.

In the flash of horror in his eyes, he fell down with lightning speed.

The power of ball lightning is extremely powerful. It is much more powerful than the third-level top-level spells, and it is enough to frighten the golden elixir peak monks.

In terms of power alone, it is even better than the ordinary third-level best spells.

"not good!"

At this time, Huo Feihong finally reacted, and with a thought, he restored the Fire Bird's true body with a wingspan of twenty feet.

Both claws were wrapped in flames and swatted at the incoming ball lightning.

"Bang~!"

A roar shook the surrounding areas, and the blue and red aura suddenly became extremely dazzling, and the powerful wave of power swept around.
