There are five major passes in the eight southwest states.
These five major passes are not only the throats of the last four states in the southwest, but also the core hub of the [Kyushu Boundary] formation.
It is precisely because of this that the Celestial Immortal Court attaches great importance to this [Kyushu Boundary] matter.
On the same day, the Immortal Court Celestial Master Gutong Zhenren, Yulou Zhenren, the Ziwei Sect leader Qingxu Zhenren and other Xianting Great Elders broke the void that day and rushed to the front line in time to join forces with the Southwest Governor's Mansion and the Demon Court to deal with the next Demon Court and the outside world.
Demon Realm joins forces to counterattack.
The Demonic Academy where Chu Chen is located is responsible for guarding [Zhenyuan Pass], one of the "Five Major Passes".
After receiving the summons, he did not delay and used his escape method to arrive in time.
Zhenyuan Pass, the gate of the city.
"I've met the Great Elder Chongxu!"
Chu Chen, Xianyun Sanren, Master Huixin and other senior officials of the Demonic Academy all bowed their hands to Taoist Chongxu.
"No need to be polite."
Taoist Chongxu waved his hand with a hurried expression:
"Recently, the Demon Court's army wants to attack the eight southwest states and destroy the [Kyushu Barrier]. We, the Demon Court, have been ordered to guard [Zhenyuan Pass]. This battle is related to the situation of the entire eight southwest states. Once the Kyushu Barrier is lost, our empire will be in the eight southwest states.
Years of management will be in vain and there is no room for failure.”
"We will obey the Great Elder's decree!"
Everyone raised their hands in unison, with serious expressions on their faces.
In the nearly one year since the advent of the Demon Realm, the Demon Court and the demons from outside the realm have never stopped intruding on Cangzhou, Yunzhou and other four states, but most of them were minor troubles before.
Under the purge of the Demonic Academy, even if there were demons that sneaked into the four states, they would be wiped out quickly and would not be able to make a difference.
However, the situation is a little different now. The demonic army is sweeping in, the demons from outside the territory are falling from the sky, and a shocking battle is about to break out.
The storm is coming, the wind is filling the building, and the entire [Zhenyuan Pass] is filled with a tense atmosphere.
All the monks in the Demonic Academy are highly cultivated and have profound Qi-cultivating skills. They are all relatively calm, recharge their batteries, and are ready to fight.
Of course, there are also those who have lively thoughts and can’t sit still.
After the meeting, Han Chen immediately approached Chu Chen. Along with him were Xuan Fengzi and Master Huixin.
"Ling Xiao, what happened? Why did the Demon Court suddenly start a war?"
The three of them were very curious. This war came so suddenly without any warning. They were considered to be members of the Celestial Empire, and each of them had a deep background and was well-informed. However, they had not heard anything about it beforehand.
Chu Chen did not hide anything and said calmly: "The [Kyushu Boundary Map] has been leaked."
"What!"
The three of them exclaimed in surprise, with horrified expressions on their faces, how could the [Kyushu Boundary Map] be leaked.
For a moment, the three of them suddenly understood the seriousness of the matter.
"Fortunately, our Celestial Court is well-informed and has known about the conspiracy of the Demon Court and the extraterrestrial demons in advance. If we let them make a surprise attack, things would be a big deal."
Han Chen was frightened, but also full of joy:
"God bless me with great prosperity!"
"indeed."
Master Huixin, Xuan Fengzi nodded slightly and quite agreed with Han Chen's statement. Although his face was still a little nervous, it was probably a natural expression before the war. His face was not too nervous, and he was very confident in the strength of the Celestial Court.
With the strength of the Celestial Court, as long as it is prepared in advance and fights head-on, it is not afraid of the Demon Court. If the demons from outside the territory join forces, they will fight and win as many times as they want. The more they fight, the bigger the territory of the Celestial Court will become.
For a moment, the nervous expressions of the three people disappeared, and their expressions became calm.
Chu Chen on the side did not speak, but he was not so optimistic in his heart.
He has confidence in the strength of Tianchao Xianting, but this time the situation is different.
The Demon Court and the demons outside the territory do not need to defeat the Celestial Dynasty on a frontal battlefield. As long as the [Kyushu Barrier] is broken and the energy of the demon domain is poured into the four states, the entire eight southwest states will be completely destroyed.
In other words, the key point of this war lies in how much the "Celestial Traitor" leaks, and whether the [Kyushu Barrier] can be preserved.
Chu Chen looked up at the sky and saw flaming clouds filling the sky and the setting sun like blood. He couldn't help but ask:
"Little devil, have you gotten a clue?"
"No!"
The kid squatting on Chu Chen's shoulder rubbed his smoky eyes and murmured:
"I just saw that there was a strong force of disaster, but I couldn't see anything specific. My eyes almost started to smoke."
"That's okay, no need to force it!"
Chu Chen waved his hand and told the little devil to stop casting spells, so as not to forcefully peek into the secret and suffer backlash.
In the face of the overwhelming general trend, personal power seems a bit small.
The little devil is like this, and he is no exception.
With his current magical power, all he can do is to do his best to guard [Zhennanguan], but only with a clear conscience.
"Hmm~"
The little kid nodded obediently and turned away his magical powers. After taking a short rest, he remembered something and quickly looked at his senior brother, frowning and saying:
"Senior brother, I can't see the general trend of the world, but I can see your blessings and misfortunes, senior brother. It seems that there is a disaster."
Is there a disaster?
Chu Chen murmured to himself, but he was not surprised.
Soon after, the demon army swept in, and a big battle was about to begin. Not only him, but everyone present in the Demon Academy probably had "signs" of disaster to some extent, and would face considerable dangers.
Of course, Chu Chen was not careless, he frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.
——
Not long ago, the Demon Court capital was a hundred thousand miles away.
All parties in the Celestial Court were somewhat unprepared for the sudden war, and all parties in the Demon Court were not much better off. They had no preparations for the war in advance, and after receiving a military order, it immediately caused a sensation in the entire capital of the Demon Court.
"Luo Gui actually got the [Kyushu Boundary Map]."
On the side of the Demon Court City, in the Dongji Palace, the Demon Lord Dongji woke up leisurely from his retreat room, his face full of surprise.
As a top peerless expert who was once the best in the world, he knows the [Kyushu Barrier] extremely well.
When the Dachang Dynasty was at its weakest, it only had the land of Kyushu in the middle earth. However, relying on the [Kyushu Barrier], the Great Wall stretched tens of thousands of miles to protect thousands of people and recuperate. In a hundred years, it became the overlord of the country. Later, under Dachang Taizu,
Under his leadership, he swept across all races in the world and became the most powerful force in the world to this day.
It can be said that the rapid rise of Dachang Dynasty was indispensable to the [Kyushu Barrier].
For Dachang Celestial Dynasty, [Kyushu Barrier] is more important than a divine weapon.
"To be able to steal such secrets is worthy of being a powerful person from outside the realm of gods and demons who has achieved enlightenment."
Demon Lord Dongji lamented in his heart the great power of the real demon Luo Gui, and felt fearful in his heart.
Of course, he was more happy inside.
In recent years, the Celestial Empire's offensive has been like a gust of wind and rain. If it weren't for the "tide of evil" coming from the sky, the eight states in the southwest would have been completely swallowed up, followed by the major demon kingdoms in the southwest. Looking at the tug-of-war over more than ten years, the demons
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Ting was beaten until he could hardly breathe.
This time, if we take the opportunity to capture Yunzhou, Cangzhou, Muzhou, and Lanzhou, and completely turn the eight southwest states into a demonic realm, it will be a great opportunity for those in the demonic path.
When the time comes, he can also get a share of the pie.
Publicly and privately, he was happy to see this scene.
The most important thing is that when the war breaks out, it is easy to fish in troubled waters.
"The opportunity has come!"
Demon Lord Dongji murmured to himself, feeling quite excited.
Half a year ago, he was extremely unlucky in the Immortal Sword Tomb and his party. Not to mention not gaining anything, he was also besieged by a group of enemies. He almost capsized in a ditch and lost his life. He spent two or three months recovering from his injuries afterwards, which was depressing.
The most important thing is that he met Chu Chen at the Immortal Sword Tomb, and the experience of fighting with him made him frightened.
Since the fight lasted only a short time and he didn't try his best, he couldn't say that he could produce a result and determine the winner.
But the result was that he was frightened.
Chu Chen's level of Daoxing was not as good as his, but with his strong magical power and powerful magical weapons, he was on par with him in a fight. He showed amazing magical powers and once had the upper hand, suppressing him in the fight.
He does still have means to counterattack, but as for Chu Chen, he has no trump card?
The Demon Lord of Dongji is uncertain and dare not make arbitrary judgments.
Precisely because of his uncertainty, his fear of "Chu Chen" reached its extreme.
Back then, when he faced the Dragon King of the East China Sea, a god in the Demonic Abyss, he was not under such great pressure.
After all, the Dragon King of the East China Sea's magical power cannot defeat him. On the contrary, his [Eastern Abyss Fire] has a great advantage in the Demonic Abyss.
But facing Chu Chen, he was a little helpless.
The supreme magical power [World-Destroying Yuanlong] at the bottom of the box has lost its former power. The powerful man he once was was actually suppressed by his juniors who were lower than him. It is difficult to speak of it.
The most important thing is that Lingxiao Taoist Chu Chen grew up too fast, even faster than him, a re-cultivator.
He didn't want to admit it in his heart, but he had to admit that at the moment he had no confidence in winning the opponent. In a few years, he might not be Chu Chen's opponent.
In fact, Chu Chen might become his nemesis, and he would have to take a detour when meeting him in the future.
"This is probably a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
Demon Lord Dongji murmured to himself, secretly making up his mind.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, we must capture Chu Chen without making any mistakes.
Normally, the peerless strong man is not so easy to kill, especially when the opponent is backed by the Great Changchang Dynasty and can affect the whole body with a single move. Only in this kind of large-scale "war between good and evil", where the forces of all parties are restrained and it is easy to fish in troubled waters, he can
There is a chance to plot against Chu Chen.
Of course, even so, it is not easy to kill Chu Chen.
If he was calling for friends and asked a second-level Taoist peerless expert who could not be restrained by Chu Chen's magical powers to take action, Chu Chen was not a fool and would not take action easily if he could not take advantage. He would definitely invite a strong person from the Immortal Court to take action.
As for the ordinary second-grade peerless expert, he simply delivers food.
If he takes action in person, to be honest, he doesn't have much confidence
At this thought, Demon Lord Dongji couldn't help but frown, feeling a little worried.
Just when he was frowning, he suddenly sensed something and waved his sleeves.
The next moment, a crack in the void in the room was born out of thin air, and a man wearing a black crown robe appeared. This man had a majestic figure, a resolute face, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, handsome yet calm, and there was an air of calmness between his eyebrows.
The majesty of majesty.
Demon Lord Dongji bowed his hand and said:
"I have met His Majesty!"
"No need to be polite."
The Wanfa Demon Emperor waved his hands, elegant and easy-going, not at all like the Supreme Demon Court. He entered the East Ji Demon Lord's palace very easily. He sat on the main seat and said with a smile:
"Fellow Taoist Dongji, I have something to entrust to you."
Demon Lord Dongji looked serious: "Please give me your Majesty's instructions!"
"Hmm~"
The Demon Emperor of All Magic nodded slightly, touched his sleeve, and a crown appeared in his hand.
To be precise, this is an imperial crown, made entirely of jade, with twelve strings of five-color jade beads hanging from it, surrounded by nine black dragons, exuding a majestic and powerful aura.
"Kowloon Crown of Heaven!"
Demon Lord Dongji exclaimed, his heart extremely shocked.
The imperial crown in front of me is none other than one of the sacred artifacts of the country, the Nine Dragons Crown, which was forged with the power of the destiny of the country after the opening of the Holy Court.
Once born, this [Nine Dragons Crown of Heaven] became the most powerful magic weapon in the world, comparable to the [Nine Dragons Jade Seal] and [Jiangshan Sheji Sword] of Emperor Mingjing of the Celestial Dynasty.
"Your Majesty, this is what you are"
Demon Lord Dongji seemed a little embarrassed. He didn't know what Demon Emperor Wanfa meant. Without saying anything, he bowed and bowed:
"When I competed for the position of emperor, I was convinced that I lost. I never dare to think about it again. Please give me a clear warning, Your Majesty!"
"Haha~ Fellow Taoist Dongji, there is no need to be nervous."
The Wanfa Demon Emperor waved his hands and explained with a smile:
"This crown is not the original artifact of the [Nine Dragons Crown of Heaven], but it is transformed by divine power and seals a magical power of imprisonment."
"I see!"
Dongji Demon Lord glanced twice with his spiritual consciousness and got a clue. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he also became more and more curious.
[Kowloon Tongtian Crown] The divine weapon is extremely powerful and has vast magical powers. However, to separate a "magical power" like this requires a lot of luck and destiny of the country. It is not just divided casually.
"Your Majesty, what did you do to order me to use this magical weapon?"
"You're definitely interested."
The Wanfa Demon Emperor smiled and asked instead:
"I heard that fellow Taoist was injured when he went to the Immortal Sword Tomb a few days ago?"
"It made His Majesty laugh."
Demon Lord Dongji looked a little embarrassed, but he was a profound practitioner and his expression soon returned to normal. Perhaps he was afraid that Demon Emperor Wanfa would test him, so he immediately exposed his shortcomings and said truthfully:
"The main reason is that I met a person who restrained me. He also refined the East Pole Abyss Fire. The supreme magical power I relied on most failed to work, and I suffered a small loss."
The Wanfa Demon Emperor smiled and said:
"That man is Chu Chen, the Taoist Master of Lingxiao in the Celestial Dynasty?"
Demon Lord Dongji was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at the incarnation of the [Nine-Dragon Heavenly Crown] on the case. He suddenly understood something, and his face showed astonishment:
"Your Majesty, do you want me to capture Chu Chen?"
"good!"
The Wanfa Demon Emperor nodded slightly:
"Then Chu Chen will not take risks when he meets other second-grade Taoists who are peerless. If you fight him, he is not afraid of you. I have inquired about it. The Xianting Demon Academy guards [Zhenyuan Pass]. You can take that Lingxiao Taoist
Capture Chu Chen for me."
"I will obey His Majesty's decree!"
Demon Lord Dongji bowed his hand. This result was an unexpected surprise for him. He felt like dozing off and took a pillow.
However, then, his expression suddenly became extremely exciting.
What does "Chu Chen are not afraid of him" mean?
Although it is true, it is too insulting.
From the corner of his eye, the Wanfa Demon Emperor saw the strange look on the face of Demon Lord Dongji, but he ignored it. His eyes were as deep as black abyss and his gaze was long and lingering.
"He doesn't even pay attention to the Demon Realm. He only wants to plot Chu Chen. He doesn't know what secrets this kid hides."
