Chapter 1159: Chapter 37: If Only Dragon City Had a Flying General (Part 2)
The three stood with their hands clasped behind their backs, intently gazing at the map of the Central Spirit Domain formed by the mist before them. Their gaze was solemn and focused, as though contemplating something.
The three cultivators of the Honorable Realm were all dressed in the gold-hued attire of the Rinsing Spirit Sect, yet the patterns embroidered on their clothes differed.
The elder on the left had a robe embroidered with the Vermilion Bird scorching the heavens.
The middle-aged man in the center wore a robe embroidered with the Xuanwu supporting the sky.
The elder on the far right had a robe embroidered with a roaring White Tiger.
Vermilion Bird Sovereign, Xuanwu Sovereign, White Tiger Sovereign.
These were the sovereign titles of the three Honorable Realm cultivators.
After a long silence, a slight change finally appeared in the eyes of the Vermilion Bird Sovereign. Without turning his head, he spoke indifferently, "Dong Qi has entered?"
The Xuanwu Sovereign beside him revealed a faint smile, "He has."
"Now that they are prepared, they’re just waiting for the final order," the Xuanwu Sovereign continued.
"The longer the night, the more dreams it nurtures; act swiftly," the Vermilion Bird Sovereign said. "As for the other three Honorable Realm cultivators, they must be left to us."
"After all, they are Honorable Realm cultivators. Even if we have the advantage, taking them down without shedding blood is impossible."
"The initial sacrifices are always inevitable," remarked the White Tiger Sovereign nonchalantly.
"Then notify everyone, let’s move," the Xuanwu Sovereign nodded.
Shortly after his voice fell, a ferocious demon beast soared high into the sky from the center of Dragon City Pass, emitting a shrill cry.
This sound was so piercing that it immediately spread across the vast expanse of Dragon City Pass, allowing all the cultivators within to hear it.
The moment the Dragon City Pass cultivators heard this shrill cry, they instinctively looked up towards the source of the sound.
Soon after, their eyes reflected a growing shadow.
It was.... the Demon Race!
.....
The Guardian Formation of Dragon City Pass was named Bright Moon.
This formation was created years ago by Ancestral Daoist Xia, considered the pinnacle of formations in the world, with unparalleled might and strength.
Even the powerful Demon Race cannot easily breach the Bright Moon Formation upheld by human cultivators.
However, there is no formation in the world that is unbreachable, nor a defense without weaknesses.
The Bright Moon Formation is controlled by humans, which is its most apparent weakness.
So, once the people have issues, the formation has issues too.
And such an important formation is naturally controlled by the most powerful sect in Dragon City Pass.
The Bright Moon Formation is controlled by the Rinsing Spirit Sect.
Therefore, this formation, which was supposed to help humans resist the Demon Race, today turned hostile, directly targeting the cultivators of Dragon City Pass.
Moonlight illuminated the night sky, and a bright moon hung high.
Demon Lord Dong Qi stood not far from the East City Wall, with a mass of demon cultivators standing behind him in darkness.
He looked up at the sudden appearance of the second "Bright Moon" in the sky, his expression serene and the corners of his lips curving higher, softly ordering, "Kill, show no mercy!"
......
Dragon City Pass was bathed in moonlight, casting a cold, poignant hue.
Almost simultaneously, battle sounds, killing cries, and screams of agony echoed throughout the entire Dragon City Pass, with blood splattering incessantly.
Various techniques and magic artifacts danced under the moonlight.
The whole city began to shake, and the earth started to quake.
"Demon Race!"
"It’s the Demon Race!"
"How did the Demon Race appear in Dragon City Pass?!"
Upon seeing the silhouettes of the Demon Race, the Dragon City Pass cultivators couldn’t help exclaiming in shock.
But the demon cultivators paid no heed to these exclamations, maintaining their speed, carrying a terrifying and ferocious momentum, launching a charge towards the human cultivators, causing the wind to howl through their path.
At that moment, a round bright moon suddenly hung high, spilling moonlight, illuminating the figures and faces of these demon cultivators with utmost clarity.
In the moonlight, the panicked and tense Dragon City Pass cultivators seemed slightly relieved.
Because they recognized this bright moon.
It was the symbol of the Bright Moon Formation of their Dragon City Pass.
The old times bring the current guard.
It was the Bright Moon Formation that allowed Dragon City Pass to make the Demon Race retreat.
Although they did not understand what had happened to let the Demon Race enter Dragon City Pass, as long as the Bright Moon Formation was present, these demons were bound to be exterminated.
However, what happened next was beyond all human cultivators’ expectations.
The Bright Moon spilled ten thousand beams of glory.
The beams transformed into Moon Swords, like rainbows moving across the sky, descending.
But these Moon Swords were not directed at the Demon Race.
... They were aimed at humans!
Boom!
One travelling palace after another collapsed with a crash, dust and countless wooden debris rising.
Soon, these Moon Swords cut through the bodies of one cultivator after another.
Wherever the Moon Swords went, the physical bodies and magical treasures of human cultivators vanished completely at that moment.
Death struck shock into everyone around.
Not only was there shock at the death itself, but also at the betrayal of the Bright Moon Formation that was supposed to protect Dragon City Pass.
"A full-scale attack, kill all human cultivators in Dragon City Pass, leave no one alive, annihilate them all!" A thunderous voice echoed throughout the city.
As the hearts and minds of the human cultivators were shaken, the tidal wave-like Demon Race did not hesitate, as though aided by raging winds, charging at the human race with even greater speed.
Heaven and Earth roared, the winds and clouds were endless.
Within tens of thousands of miles surrounding Dragon City Pass, numerous spells brought about significant disturbances, provoking a riot in the spiritual power of Heaven and Earth, the ground shattered, and buildings overturned, turning this place into an apocalypse.
The number of demon cultivators rushing out frantically was unknown.
