Chapter 1187: Chapter 720: Catastrophe Strikes! (4K)_2

“Let’s go.”

Daoyu Demon Venerable led the Demon Army, billowing with black aura, flying southward.

“That direction is the central part of the Immortal Realm. It seems the Demon Venerables intend to seize the central part first, then attack the Heavenly Court above the Immortal Dynasty. Once the Heavenly Court is destroyed, the Three Realms will become the cultivation holy grounds for us from the Demon Sects.”

The Sect Master of the Yellow Springs Sect was extremely fervent.

If the Demon Realm triumphed, following Daoyu Demon Venerable would also bring him tremendous benefits.

Shortly after Daoyu Demon Venerable’s arrival, a large batch of terrifying presences descended at the Nine Nether Forbidden Land!

…

“The Demon Army headed southward; the first to face them is Leize Holy Land.”

Qingyue Fairy instructed her disciple Shangguan Zhao’er to continue leading the crowd from Jing Long Immortal Temple to leave, then secretly observed the movements of Daoyu Demon Venerable’s Demon Army alone.

If Lu Changsheng were present, he would be surprised to discover Qingyue Fairy’s aura was profound and unfathomable.

The Sect Master of the Yellow Springs Sect was no match for Qingyue Fairy at all. However, Qingyue Fairy didn’t want to alert the enemy, so she never displayed her true power.

South of the Nine Nether Forbidden Land was the territory range of Leize Holy Land. The Demon Army headed south from the Nine Nether Forbidden Land, making Leize Holy Land bear the brunt.

“According to the direction of the Demon Army’s march, the target is the central Immortal Dynasty and the Heavenly Court. Who knows how many lives will be lost this time.”

Qingyue Fairy was deeply worried.

The Demon Army’s invasion, with Daoyu Demon Venerable merely as the vanguard.

Qingyue Fairy took out a Spatial Talisman and disappeared from where she stood.

…

Leize, Leixia City, this was the Taoist field of Leize Holy Land.

Qingyue Fairy appeared in Leixia City, stopped by a disciple of Leize Holy Land: “Who are you? Why have you trespassed into Leixa City?”

“Take me to see your Saint Lord Xujing True Sovereign.”

Qingyue Fairy took out a token.

“Hiss… this is a token of the Heavenly Court! Are you from the Heavenly Court? May I ask from which Divine Palace is the Immortal from?”

“The Demon Army is coming here, there is no time to explain.”

“What?! Please, Immortal, wait a moment, we’ll immediately go see the Saint Lord!”

The disciple of Leize Holy Land realized the severity of the situation and couldn’t afford to chat at such a time, so they urgently went to inform Saint Lord Xujing True Sovereign.

In a short while, an elderly figure in a purple Daoist Robe appeared. Seeing Qingyue Fairy, he spoke hoarsely: “It seems our Leize Holy Land has become their first target.”

Qingyue Fairy nodded: “Please immediately activate the Mountain Protection Array, hold the holy ground, and wait for the Heavenly Court to come to the rescue.”

“Array elders, heed my command, the Demon Venerable is approaching, activate the array.”

“All other elders and disciples gather at the Divine Lightning Great Hall.”

Xujing True Sovereign gathered True Qi and transmitted a message to all Holy Land elders and disciples.

“What’s happening?”

“Our Leize Holy Land hasn’t gathered entirely in a long time.”

“Could the Great Tribulation of the Three Realms have begun?”

“Things are dire.”

Leize Holy Land was in a state of panic. With the Saint Lord’s orders, they immediately dropped everything and gathered from various Daoist Temples around the city at the most towering Divine Lightning Great Hall.

Saint Lord Xujing True Sovereign sat at the main seat, his expression solemn, making other elders and disciples even more anxious and uneasy.

“The Demon Army is advancing towards our Leixia City. The survival of the holy land hinges on this moment. No disciple is allowed to leave Leixia City for even a step.”

“The Demon Army is coming…”

The numerous elders and disciples of Leize Holy Land, although mentally prepared, turned pale upon hearing the Demon Army was drawing near.

Leixia City shook violently, the Mountain Protection Array slowly operated, enveloping Leixia City.

Rumbling…

Around Leixia City, divine thunder roared like a Thunder Pond, with apocalyptic lightning cracking loudly from time to time.

Despite the terror, the elders of Leize Holy Land knew this was the protective Mountain Protection Array, summoning Nine Heavens Divine Thunder to defend the sacred ground, ensuring that if the Demon Army besieged Leize Holy Land, it would suffer heavy damage from the divine thunder.

The Nine Heavens Divine Thunder also formed a cubic barrier around Leixia City, severing space and time.

Nine hundred-zhang divine pillars, with eight arranged according to the Eight Trigrams, and the most important one standing on the plaza in the middle of the Divine Lightning Great Hall.

Each divine pillar was carved with lifelike totems of nine Thunder Dragons and inscrutable ancient runes.

These nine hundred-zhang divine pillars formed the array’s core.

“The ‘Nine Heavens Elemental Five Thunder Formation’ of Leize Holy Land is indeed astonishing in its power and should hold off the Demon Army for some time. With the Heavenly Court receiving my message, all major sacred grounds in the Immortal Realm should be aware that the calamity has started. Once reinforcements arrive from the Heavenly Court and other holy grounds, the crisis in Leize Holy Land can be resolved.”

Qingyue Fairy stayed temporarily at Leize Holy Land.

…

At Mount Taihua Sacred Land, Vice Holy Master Lin Qinghan looked solemnly at the information in her hand, full of surprises.

“The Demon Army is moving south, and the first to be attacked is Leize Holy Land.”

Suddenly, a disciple rushed in from outside: “Vice Holy Master, Ruan Qi the Fairy awaits you outside.”

Lin Qinghan frowned slightly, got up immediately, and went out.

Ruan Qi greeted politely: “This is an emergency, and I won’t go into too much detail given the urgency of the situation. Jin Long Immortal Temple was transferred from Daoyu Demon Venerable. He’s heading south with the Demon Army and is aggressively attacking all the way there. According to the decision of the Heavenly Court Assembly, Mysterious Lady Palace is responsible for coordinating the holy lands and sects in the Immortal Realm in the south, requiring all sects to follow our commands once the catastrophe begins.”

Lin Qinghan blinked his eyes, looking anxious. A bad premonition welled up in his heart, and he asked, “When will the Demon Army arrive at Leixia City?”

“It won’t be long, and the first target is Leize Holy Land,” Ruan Qi added.

“I have informed the sect master, and he has already activated the Mountain Protection Array for a deadly defense.”

“Everyone in Tai Hua Sacred Land has been ready for battle, right?”

Lin Qinghan, who had been silently listening all along, finally spoke: “Sister, go ask for the directions from the Palace Master, and we will strengthen our defenses according to the Holy Land Elder’s lead.”

“I understand, do excuse me, I need to report this to the Palace Master immediately. The current crisis is an opportunity for our extended family to showcase their talents and make a name.”

Ruan Qi the Fairy nodded slightly: “Whether the Immortal Realm can withstand it depends on whether the Heavenly Court can arrive in time.”

But she didn’t doubt the fact that the Nine Nether Forbidden Land had become an outpost for the Demon Army, poised to press on south towards Leixia City.

Only by joining forces with various sanctuaries could the Immortal Realm survive this ordeal.”

“We need to prepare for a battle of life and death with determination.”
