“Fellow Daoists, please accept these. The Magic Light Pills were refined by Daoist Wei at the request of our Elder Council, and there will absolutely be no problems.”
Seeing that no one was taking the pills, Elder Tian took the lead, grabbed a black jade bottle, and directly took out a dark pill from it and swallowed it.
Only then did the others accept the pills, but none of them took them immediately.
Zhang Ling and Xuan Gui were the same, carefully examining the Magic Light Pill, which contained pure demonic energy. It seemed to be a pill refined from demonic energy spiritual liquid.
However, even if it could hide his aura, he didn't need this kind of pill.
He had refined a few wisps of True Devil Qi, and by activating a little True Devil Qi, it was easy to disguise himself as an alien demon.
Even though the nine of them were on a secret mission, it was hard to say they were of one mind. Most of them were driven by profit.
“Alright, let's wait here for now. When our army and the alien demons of Yanhsia City are at war, that will be the best time for us to infiltrate.” Elder Tian clapped his hands and instructed Yin Guang, who was proficient in formations. “I'll have to trouble Daoist Yin to set up a concealment formation here to hide our tracks.”
“A small matter.” Old man Yin Guang smiled and immediately took action. In a short while, he set up a concealment formation, covering an area of hundreds of feet nearby.
Zhang Ling deliberately took a few glances, and found that this person had set up a set of earth and wood dual-attribute formations, which was quite suitable for the current regional environment.
“I am refining a magic weapon, so I won’t disturb you. I'll find a place by myself.” At this time, the Gryphon Old Ghost said expressionlessly, and turned into a gray light and disappeared.
“Haha, I also have a secret technique to study. I will meet up with you when the war starts.” The golden-haired man from Zhenyang Sect also laughed, a golden light flashed on his body, and he also left.
Elder Tian did not stop him when he saw this, but shook his head helplessly.
The others did not leave, but scattered within the range of the hidden formation, each choosing a place and meditating quietly. No one spoke, and the atmosphere was tense.
……
At the same time, Yanhsia City, thousands of miles away, had changed from Zhang Ling's impression.
The original gray-white city walls of Yanhsia City had become quite dilapidated, and many places had become ruins. Obviously, it was caused by the previous war.
However, outside the original city wall of Yanhsia City, the alien demons built a new circle of city walls made of black stone, surrounding the entire Yanhsia City.
However, the newly built city wall was half the height of the original city wall. However, the same gray-black magic patterns were engraved on it, and the resulting defense would not be bad.
You can also see in the area between the two layers of city walls, standing tall stone pillars, each stone pillar with purple light flickering at the top, rotating a huge rhombus-shaped purple magic stone. On closer inspection, it is actually a top-grade magic stone.
Even on the alien demon side, there are several magic springs emitting pure magic energy, changing the spiritual energy environment of the world. However, the magic springs are mostly still in a sealed state.
Zhang Ling had never seen anyone take out top-grade magic stones when he was in the alien demon territory before, and even middle-grade magic stones were rare.
In addition, the inner city of Yanhsia City is shrouded in a layer of black mist, covering half of Yanhsia City. It seems extremely strange.
You can see teams of alien demon cultivators entering and exiting. Most of the cultivators are still high-level cultivators. Low-level alien demons are not qualified to enter and exit inside, and they are gathered in various parts of the city.
Many of the original buildings in the city have been directly leveled. Re-planned into camps, and there are several large open spaces. There are huge battle spiritual weapons.
At this time, in a secret stone house in the black mist, there are a dozen alien demon cultivators discussing something. These people are all Nascent Soul cultivators, and two of them have powerful auras.
One of them was wearing a red robe with a dark face. It was the Flame Demon Ancestor who had clamored with Lei Guang Sanren outside Tianmu City before.
The other person, wrapped in white fur like a young man from a wealthy family, also had a powerful aura and was also an old monster in the late Nascent Soul stage.
The young man nestled in a mahogany chair, coughed a few times and said, “Wu Ling, are the ancient beasts with the blood of earth demon beasts from your tribe properly controlled? In tomorrow's battle, the ancient beasts must be at the forefront to consume the enemy's spiritual power.”
“High Priest, don’t worry, those giant demon beasts are already ready.” A bald old man nodded in response.
In the alien demon clan, many tribes still maintain ancient traditions, and Nascent Soul elders are called high priests.
At this moment, the only one in this stone house who can be called the High Priest is Luo Ming, the High Priest of the Demon Soul Palace.
Luo Ming looks young, but he has lived for more than 1,400 years. He is a true millennium old monster. He once had the ability to resist the combined forces of Dongyangzi and the Red Demon Elder of the Demon Luo Sect, two human race great cultivators, without falling behind.
And this alien demon war was planned by High Priest Luo Ming.
“Cough cough, that’s good. Mei Xie, you must also prepare the batch of Purple Demon Scorpions you cultivated.” The High Priest’s eyes swept over another beautiful woman in a purple robe.
If Zhang Ling were here, he would have seen this beautiful woman. She was the beautiful woman among the alien demons who intercepted them in the Falling Star Mountains before.
“My little darlings have long been hidden underground, waiting for the enemy to arrive tomorrow, they will suddenly launch an attack. Although the damage to high-level cultivators is limited, it is difficult for low-level cultivators to withstand the magic poison of the sub-demon scorpions. At that time, their army will definitely be in chaos.” Madam Mei Xie chuckled with a sinister smile.
Luo Ming nodded and looked at another bald old man.
The bald old man said with a solemn expression. “The teleportation halls of the five immortal cities we occupied have long been removed by the human race guys, and we cannot quickly transfer our army. And the five immortal cities chosen by the human race are very clever. The teleportation arrays are interconnected, and we do not have an advantage.
Although our clan has a few spies who have infiltrated their camp, it is difficult to reverse the situation.
Even if we destroy their teleportation array at that time, it will only delay a little time. If their high-level cultivators gather in one city in large numbers, they can disintegrate our dispersed forces in a short time. We will be defeated by them one by one.”
The bald old man glanced at the two black-robed cultivators hiding in the dark corner. His expression was serious. “High Priest, you agreed to these two Daoist Yan’s plan and transferred most of our clan’s elites to the other four cities.
On the contrary, we only have a dozen Nascent Soul cultivators left in Yanhsia City, which we use as our base camp. Is this a bit inconsiderate?
A few hours ago, the spies sent back intelligence that the human race cultivators who attacked Yanhsia City this time dispatched more than 30 Nascent Soul old monsters, and the Hundred Flowers Old Demon of the Hehuan Sect is also helping. The force is more than half more.
Their Nascent Soul cultivators are already more than our clan. If we want to disperse our forces and defeat them one by one, I am afraid it will be difficult to succeed, and we will be trapped by our own actions and defeated by the human race cultivators one by one.”
