Longevity: Starting as a Sect Servant-Chapter 300 - 223: Survival at the End of the Road (Part 3)
"General Ma Yuan, General Yan Feng, General Xuan Yuan, each of you will lead an army of 500,000, marching to attack the locations of the Great Li’s Blood Essence Sect, Taiyi Sect, and others, in order to cover the actions of the White Tiger Demon King—"
With the orders given, she stood up, "Whether the glory of the Demon Race can be restored depends on this move, and after this battle, all who have made meritorious contributions will be granted all the materials needed for Breaking Realm, and additionally, your spoils will belong entirely to you—"
For a moment, within the grand tent, killing intent was surging. All the Demon Kings and Demon Generals stood up and roared loudly: "Kill!"
...
The next day.
"Kill!"
The screams of the battle were deafening, as the strongest of the four great Demon Kings of the Demon Race, the Cyan Dragon, led an army of a million to launch an aggressive attack on the Great Li army.
In an instant, the Great Li was thrown into turmoil, hastily organizing resistance.
When the two armies clashed, a terrifying battle broke out, with Foundation Establishment cultivators filling the pits, True Core cultivators bleeding, and even the Nascent Soul experts barely holding on in this level of battle.
"It’s the Demon Race’s full assault!"
"Have they gone mad..."
"They come with such force!"
In the central military tent of the Great Li Empire, the experts from various sects were somewhat astonished.
The White Tiger Empress had only just arrived a few days ago, and the war had already erupted directly!
"Report! Blood Province has been attacked, tens of thousands of demon troops have been found, attacking and capturing lands, unstoppable—"
"Report! The mountain gate of the Taiyi Sect is under siege, an urgent message for help has been sent—"
"Report! Demon soldiers have been found within the territory of Great Li—"
Battle reports flew in like snowflakes, leaving everyone in the grand tent extremely grave.
"Is the great war between humans and demons from years ago about to be reenacted?"
"In that battle years ago, our Human Race had seven Divinity Transformation cultivators emerge, besieging the Demon Emperor and two Divinity Transformation Demon Kings. In the end, although barely suppressing the demonic disaster, only one of the seven Divinity Transformation cultivators remained, and countless other talents, sects, etc., were wiped out. The Cultivation Realm of the Human Race, therefore, withered for many years, and now, another great war descends, it’s a calamity, a calamity!"
"Who can quell the chaos this time?"
Many debated, their gazes all fell on the White Tiger Empress.
Now that the Great Li holds the supreme status in the realm, naturally, such matters should be handled by the Great Li Empire.
"Transmit my order to face the enemy head-on, and engage the invading army—"
"Additionally, gather all Nascent Soul level cultivators from the major sects."
The White Tiger Empress said indifferently, "Everyone, the Demon Race has certainly found the Demon Emperor’s Tomb, that’s why they’re launching a proactive attack. Nascent Soul level cultivators, be ready to enter the Demon Emperor’s Tomb with me at any time to seize the opportunity!"
For a moment, everyone in the scene was taken aback, rejoicing incredibly.
"The Demon Emperor’s Tomb!"
"This is truly a land of opportunity, our sect’s ancestor died at his hands, and many treasures of our sect must be in his tomb!"
Although the recent decree issued by the Great Li Empire prohibiting unauthorized Nascent Soul breakthroughs has caused dissatisfaction among many large forces, and even anger in secret, at such times driven by common interests, they said nothing more and immediately began gathering the experts from their sects.
...
"Master, the Demon Race on that side has moved, fiercely charging towards us, even heading directly towards the capital."
Spirit Peak, a high peak within the restricted area of Xiling.
The White Tiger Empress reported to the frail young girl.
The frail young girl responded calmly, "A feint to the east while attacking the west."
"The Demon Emperor’s Tomb should be appearing soon..."
She gazed into the depths of the restricted area of Xiling, "My dear sister, you, too, wish to contest for the Emperor’s Tomb... I really look forward to your appearance."
...
A bloody battle raged outside!
Meanwhile.
In Yellow Springs Valley, the Demon Queen Jing Chan, accompanied by Shee Anrong, Shee Anqi, the Vermilion Bird Demon King, and other confidants, stepped in step by step.
"I sense it, it truly is here."
Tan Qingxue’s heart stirred slightly. She had the Demon Army search for a long time without any clues, yet Li An actually knew?
It seems the secrets on him... are many as well.
This is quite normal, as being able to escape from the Qingyang market back then, to advance step by step to the True Core stage over the years, helping her counterattack Jing Chan, and even daring to plot against the Great Li Empire... How could Li An not have some opportunities and fortuitous encounters?
She did not feel the urge to investigate any further.
"Begin the ritual—"
She spoke.
Immediately, the people behind her stepped forward to begin the sacrificial ceremony.
As the grand sacrifice unique to the Demon Race unfolded, the power of demon blood and demon incantations resonated throughout Yellow Springs Valley, and for a moment, Yellow Springs Valley seemed interwoven with light and shadow, as a grand tomb slowly emerged from the void!
It was a stone tomb, with a colossal Demon Python standing guard on each side, the stone tomb serene, yet suppressing the entrance to a stone road that stretched into unfathomable depths, like another world.
"This is... the Demon Emperor’s Tomb!"
"The statues on either side are precisely the two Demon Generals the Demon Emperor trusted most in the past. They followed the Demon Emperor here to guard his tomb—"
"Excellent!"
For a moment, the Vermilion Bird Demon King and others were thrilled to the extreme.
"Kill—"
"Enemy attack!"
And at that moment, cries of battle came from outside the valley.
The crowd turned back, seeing a force flying rapidly from the sky, roughly numbering around 3,000!
The Vermilion Bird King had stationed 100,000 elite soldiers outside Yellow Springs Valley, but these 100,000 demon troops couldn’t stop the advance of the 3,000.
Because these 3,000 men...
Were all at the Nascent Soul Level!
The temptation of the Demon Emperor’s Tomb was too great, containing not only the Demon Emperor’s own opportunities but also relics of the Divinity Transformation level experts from the Human Race who had been slain by the Demon Emperor... Which power in the world wouldn’t be tempted? Which Nascent Soul wouldn’t yearn for it?
So, the number of strongmen from each major power coming... was extraordinarily high!
Even though the Emperor Origin Realm is vast as it is, it doesn’t have more than 4,000 Nascent Souls in number, and now 3,000 had directly arrived... It could be said that the Nascent Soul experts from the five continents of the Emperor Origin Realm were gathered.
The 3,000 Nascent Souls advanced invincibly, the 100,000 elite demon soldiers unable to stop them, and in the blink of an eye, the White Tiger Empress had already strode in the air, entering Yellow Springs Valley.
She smiled indifferently, exuding a compelling regal aura, looking towards Tan Qingxue, and said, "Demon Queen, Jing Chan?"
...
Good night
