Volume 10: Fuyao Chapter 112: Small Boat
As soon as Chi Zun said this, the faces of the human cultivators on the city gate changed and they were shocked.
Could it be that the demons are making such a big fuss this time, with their army marching through the city, just to fight Xie Qingyun?
The simultaneous appearance of the three figures seemed to the monks at Yumen Pass to be a scene that would only occur in the final battle.
"Whether to fight or not, Xie Qingyun, please think carefully."
"Since the three of us are here today, we can't just go back without doing anything." Chi Zun shouted again, his threat clearly expressed - if Xie Qingyun doesn't fight, then they will go to war at Yumen Pass and there is no way they will return empty-handed.
boom!
The moment Chi Zun finished speaking, Zhan Zun, who was standing next to him, suddenly attacked, giving people a deterrent.
His golden spear shot up into the sky, emitting a dazzling golden light that reached the sky, carrying a fierce demonic aura, and traveled thousands of miles as it blasted towards Yumen Pass.
The monks at Yumen Pass on the city gate all felt a chill in their souls at this moment , as if a Mount Tai was pressing towards them, unstoppable.
This is a kind of terrifying pressure that is difficult to feel without personal experience, and it makes the monks in Yumen Pass feel cold from head to toe.
This was because the evil energy on the golden spear was too terrifying, and even through the Changfeng Formation, it deeply shook everyone's soul.
Buzz!
The void trembled, green light appeared, the Changfeng Formation was triggered, and large pieces of wind flew up to block the golden spear.
The two collided, and the terrifying wave shook Yumen Pass.
The Changfeng Formation remained indestructible and successfully blocked the attack.
However, the monks on the city wall all looked extremely ugly and worried, and a feeling of anxiety was spreading rapidly.
Indeed, the Changfeng Formation is very powerful.
But it can stop the Demon Lord temporarily, can it really stop them forever?
Outside the city gates, countless demon armies were densely packed like a black steel torrent. Following the movements of the War Lord, they all drew their weapons and issued uniform war roars.
"War Lord, War Lord!"
The sounds connected together, shaking the sky and the earth, and even formed a terrifying sound wave.
If it weren't for the Changfeng Formation blocking it, it might even cause certain damage to the monks on the city gate.
This was an obvious form of pressure, forcing Xie Qingyun to make a choice.
Chi Zun raised his hand and pressed it down, and the boiling war roar stopped. Zhan Zun then retracted the golden spear.
"In the recent war, many people have died on both sides, and we don't want to continue wasting time like this. I will give you humans a chance to end the situation in a more peaceful way." Chi Zun spoke again, his tone still extremely cold, as if he had no emotional fluctuations at all, which was intimidating.
"If you can defeat the three of us one by one, we will withdraw our troops temporarily and will not attack you for at least ten years." Chi Zun made the promise in front of both the human and the demon.
Everyone was shocked. They didn't expect Chi Zun to have such a plan.
Although there is a possibility that Chi Zun may go back on his word, there is actually only a small chance that the promise made by the Demon Lord in front of so many people will not be fulfilled, so I can guarantee it.
For a moment, everyone's eyes were on "Xie Qingyun".
The demon cultivators were naturally full of confidence in their own Demon Lord. They hoped that Xie Qingyun would accept the challenge, and then be severely defeated by their Demon Lord, thus dampening the morale of the human cultivators.
The monks at Yumen Pass also have great trust in Xie Qingyun, believing that the sword immortal is invincible. They hope that Xie Qingyun can wipe out the three great demon lords of the demon clan, boost morale, and buy some time for Yumen Pass.
Now that half of the Sword Sect is on the Western Expedition, Yumen Pass is at its weakest.
Moreover, there are countless geniuses among the new generation of cultivators of the human race. If the demons could attack Yumen Pass later and allow the new generation of cultivators to grow up, perhaps everything could be rewritten, leading to a major change in the war situation.
What the human race lacks most now is time.
Faced with the attention of the public, "Xie Qingyun" remained calm.
But Lin Yao's heart was actually already wavering.
She believed that if the real Qingyun Sword Immortal was here, he would have agreed to Chi Zun's conditions immediately.
She actually wanted to agree.
However, she is not the Qingyun Sword Immortal, but just a fake one with a false appearance and does not have the strength of Xie Qingyun.
Therefore, Lin Yao could not agree to Chi Zun's conditions.
But the problem is, in this situation, with these conditions, if she refuses them outright without a reasonable reason, not only will the monks at Yumen Pass be disappointed, thinking that the "Qingyun Sword Immortal" is afraid of fighting and their morale will plummet, but it will also make the demons suspicious and doubt her identity.
A dilemma.
The demon clan's sudden action caught everyone off guard and pushed Lin Yao to the edge of the cliff, leaving her in a dilemma.
"What do you mean? Xie Qingyun, you are not afraid of the three of us. You will be nothing without the Changfeng Formation, right?" Chi Zun said.
"How is it possible? How could Qingyun Sword Immortal be afraid of you little demons?" Before "Xie Qingyun" could reply, a cultivator from Yumen Pass on the city gate angrily refuted, feeling that Chi Zun's words were an insult to Qingyun Sword Immortal and found it hard to accept.
"How insolent!" Someone even scolded Chi Zun across the Changfeng Formation.
The pressure from Chi Zun was indeed very strong, making them tremble.
However, these monks have been fighting against the demons all the time, and they have strong wills and strong bones. Even if their souls are shocked, they still have the courage to speak.
The city gate suddenly became extremely noisy.
Compared with the human race, outside the city gate, the dark army of demons was endless. But after Chi Zun raised his hand to signal, all the demon cultivators remained solemn, no one spoke, and it was extremely quiet.
The demon clan has a strict hierarchy and strict military discipline.
The situation is getting worse and worse.
Lin Yao was extremely anxious, but she was at a loss as to what to do. She only hated that her phantom body and divine veins could only conjure up a mere decoration, and could not replicate even a fraction of Qingyun Sword Immortal's strength.
"Promise him." At this moment, Lin Yao suddenly received a voice message in her mind.
It was a cold female voice, condensed into a line, with an indescribable sense of determination, which made people trust it and could not be refused.
Lin Yao's eyes swept obscurely over the face of the stunningly beautiful woman beside her whose eyebrows were as beautiful as distant mountains.
This is the message from Xia Daoyun.
The next moment, Lin Yao spoke in Xie Qingyun's tone and manner, very casually: "I have suppressed the three of you for ten thousand years, and you still refuse to accept it."
"It's fine if you don't accept it, I'll beat you until you accept it."
Xie Qingyun smiled, his smile was a little cold, but also contained excitement.
Lin Yao didn't know what solution Xia Daoyun had come up with, but there was always a trustworthy aura about Xia Daoyun.
So Lin Yao immediately followed what Xia Daoyun said and agreed to Chi Zun's conditions.
roar!
The moment "Xie Qingyun" finished speaking, countless people on the Yumen Pass city wall roared.
This was a huge outburst of emotions that had been suppressed for many days.
"Qingyun Sword Immortal, sweep them away, kill them, and let them never dare to invade our Yumen Pass again!" Many cultivators were full of confidence in Xie Qingyun and shouted loudly to cheer him on.
"Accepted the challenge?" Chi Zun's eyes flickered.
"Since he dares to accept the challenge, he must be the real Xie Qingyun. It seems that the Heart Demon Clan's words about the so-called Qingyun Sword Immortal leaving Yumen Pass and ascending to Zhongling are all lies they told to trick us into taking action."
"Fortunately, we tried it out, otherwise we would have been in trouble."
He thought so in his heart.
Since Xie Qingyun dared to accept the challenge, it couldn't be a fake. After all, in Yumen Pass, besides him, who else could fight against the top demon lord?
Although it was roughly certain that what the Heart Demon Clan said was a lie, Chi Zun had no intention of canceling the battle.
Because they also wanted to find out Xie Qingyun's strength and prepare for the final battle in the future.
"I will take on the first battle. Xie Qingyun, you will definitely be defeated by my spear today!" Zhan Zun responded, taking a step forward, grasping the golden spear floating in the air, and emitting powerful pressure.
"Let me first learn how to use your sword."
"Xie Qingyun" also moved and took a step forward.
"Master!" At this moment, Yu Canghai suddenly spoke and called out "Xie Qingyun".
"What's wrong?" Xie Qingyun stopped and turned to look at Yu Canghai, waiting for his explanation.
Zhan Zun, Chi Zun and Ming Zun also frowned. They didn't expect there would be any variables. Their eyes flickered, and they had different ideas and became suspicious.
"Master, there are three demons, but you are only one. They want you to fight with them in turns. Isn't this obviously a round-robin battle, which is unfair?" Yu Canghai said word by word.
There was a commotion on the city wall.
This is the truth.
"What do you mean? Qingyun Sword Immortal just accepted the challenge, is he going to shrink his head back into his shell like a turtle?" Zhan Zun said sarcastically in a voice as loud as thunder.
The tortoise shell that Zhan Zun mentioned refers to the Changfeng Formation.
"As a great war master, please stop using these cheap provocations."
"I am a sword cultivator of the human race, why should I hesitate to fight?"
"However, to deal with a mere war master like you, our sect leader does not need to take action personally."
"Just beating you is enough for me!" Yu Canghai said in a loud voice.
"You?" Zhan Zun was stunned at first, then he couldn't help laughing, revealing a look of contempt, "Just you? An eighth-level swordsman?"
As he laughed, he gradually calmed down and said coldly: "You don't deserve it."
"Whether I am worthy or not, you should ask the sword in my hand, not look at your mouth." Yu Canghai raised his eyelids, looked at the arrogant War Lord, and responded like this.
Immediately, Yu Canghai turned around, clasped his hands together, and said to "Xie Qingyun": "Sect Master, Yu Canghai invites you to fight!"
There was an amazing fighting spirit in his eyes.
Lin Yao's mind flashed at this moment. She was very smart and immediately figured out the solution that Yu Canghai, Xia Daoyuan and Xue Wushao had thought of.
They wanted to take action themselves and defeat the War Lord, the Red Lord and the Life Lord, so that Xie Qingyun would not have to take action at all.
This is indeed a feasible and reasonable strategy.
The thing is, they have to win!
If they lose, Xie Qingyun will have no reason not to take action.
However, the War Lord, Life Lord and Red Lord are all top-level demon lords, and only the Sword Immortal can fight them.
Yu Canghai, Xue Wushao and Xia Daoyun are only eighth-level sword cultivators, how can they win?
The gap between the Eighth Realm and the Sword Immortal Realm is as vast as heaven and earth. They cannot be compared.
This is a consensus and also the truth.
The three peak masters were actually preparing to do such a heaven-defying act?
Where does their confidence come from?
Are they sure?
With her mind turning over and over, Lin Yao already put on an attitude of thanking Qingyun, and calmly replied: "Since you want to fight, then go and give it a try."
"Okay," Yu Canghai walked like a dragon and a tiger, and said to Xie Qingyun with a smile: "Canghai will never disgrace the name of the Sword Sect."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Canghai jumped up, jumped out of the Changfeng Formation, and faced Zhan Zun from a distance.
When Yu Canghai left the city and the battlefield, Yumen Pass was briefly quiet, and then suddenly erupted with noise like waves.
At this moment, everyone was very nervous.
The monks at Yumen Pass knew that Yu Canghai was very strong, but they felt that it was impossible for him to be strong enough to fight against the War Lord.
But even if they think it is impossible, they are still full of hope and eager for a victory.
This feeling is very complicated, which makes them extremely nervous.
The War Lord looks like a human, standing in the void with a cold look in his eyes.
"Ignorant boy." Zhan Zun treated Yu Canghai coldly and even called him a boy.
Only someone like this would have such a tone.
"Okay, then I'll play with you. First I'll kill the little fish, then I'll kill the sword immortal." Beams of light flashed in the eyes of the War Lord, like a hungry wolf, aggressive and excited.
He also figured it out. If he could take advantage of the situation to kill Yu Canghai, it would deal a fatal blow to the human race and would be an unexpected surprise. Therefore, he did not resist Yu Canghai's initiative to fight.
"If I don't chop off your head today and hang your body on my spear, I will be unworthy of the name of War Lord!" He was confident and steady, and his words shook people's hearts.
"A mere eighth-level swordsman is nothing in my eyes!"
In the distance, Chi Zun and Ming Zun looked at Yu Canghai with equally cold eyes, as if he was already a dead man.
"A mere War Lord is nothing in my eyes." Yu Canghai responded softly.
For a moment, everyone held their breath.
"Master Yu Feng, we will win!" someone shouted.
"We will win!" Many people shouted to cheer for Yu Canghai.
"You can't do it, so let your sect leader die instead!" Zhan Zun shouted angrily.
"Stop talking nonsense." Yu Canghai's mind moved, his energy, spirit and spirit united, and an astonishing momentum rushed out from his body.
He flicked his finger, and a small and exquisite sword floated in front of him.
"Are you planning to fight me with this embroidery needle?" Zhan Zun did not miss any opportunity to ridicule and spoke directly.
Before making any move, Yu Canghai did not take Zhan Zun's ridicule seriously. He just smiled and said, "My sword is better than yours. It is called Xiaozhou."
He was named after the vast ocean, but his natal sword was named after a small boat.
The next moment, the Sword Sect's recognized number one swordsman, Qingyun Sword Immortal, smiled slightly and waved his long sleeves...
A sky full of exquisite pocket-sized swords suddenly appeared, covering the entire sky, and no one knew how many there were.
Yu Canghai stretched out his index finger, flicked it lightly, and said calmly: "Light-splitting sword formation."
The small swords in the sky suddenly jumped into the air, and after a slight pause, they shot towards the War Lord.
