The crowd was solemn, all feeling the massive killing intent of this mountain.
The bloody aura emanating from the mountain made the surrounding birds and beasts tremble and bow, fleeing madly.
No one dared to imagine the scale of the battle that took place here, staining the entire hillside with blood.
The Immortal Drum resounded grandly, echoing for half a day.
In the palace on the mountain, it seed there were still people replaying the morning bell and evening drum ritual daily.
A huge wave of spiritual energy, mixed with blood qi, overflowed from the space where Immortal King Mountain was located.
In front of the mountain, red mysterious light flashed, as if a red dress was dancing before the mountain.
An old man gazed ahead, squinting his eyes and saying, "The aura of blood light is too strong, not a good on."
The crowd was both excited and worried, uncertain about what kind of monsters might erge from within.
The ground rumbled once more, but this ti it was the sound of hooves pounding the earth.
Howls filled the air.
A group of creatures from the mountain ford a black sea, roaring as they charged downward.
A sharp-eyed cultivator imdiately shouted, "Sothing is coming down from the mountain."
"Retreat, get out of here!"
"Back up, hurry!"
"..."
In an instant, the crowd was in an uproar, sword lights slicing through the void as they retreated.
Over ten million people, such an imnse montum.
Long Fei waited just for this mont, not allowing them to leave.
He promptly stepped forward, riding on a vulture into the sky, wielding his sword and shouting, "We cultivators must act according to the heavens, pressing forward without retreat. In this great calamity, how can we turn back and let these monsters endanger the families behind us? I, Ma Army Commander Jiang Hengyuan, declare that whoever kills a monster can exchange it for a million spirit stones from ."
His voice shook all directions, the crowd only half-hearing what he said, but catching the million spirit stones clearly.
A group of people looked up, gulping and shouting, "A million?"
"So much?"
"Why look for fortune when you can kill so creatures?"
"For money, n die, and birds for food; count in!"
"Damn it, let’s fight on the frontlines together!"
"..."
A group of loose cultivators, most in need of resources, halted imdiately in midair at Long Fei’s words.
Yet, many others ran for it, hiding behind Tianguan City, watching from afar and cursing, "That bastard’s bluffing! How could that profiteer share the money with everyone?"
"No wonder he stationed himself at Tianguan City; he wants to use us to fight!"
"The Emperor entrusted him with the task, yet he pushes it onto us. He’s too sly."
"I’m not falling for it, risking my life for a million!"
"..."
A thousand-mile plain was nothing to these newly freed creatures.
All mutated animals of Immortal King Mountain that absorbed and devoured Immortal Demon Blood were a hundred tis fiercer than ordinary demonic beasts.
Only rged with this world, they erupted into it madly.
Those hiding in the marsh took the opportunity to feast on blood.
Each over a dozen ters long, with black, scaly skin, mouths wide open, fangs like daggers exposed.
The marshlands erupted with bloody mist and screams.
Everyone gulped, astounded by the creatures’ savagery, even feasting on their own ranks.
When did they feast, in Immortal King Mountain’s space, divided into hundreds of tribes?
These tribes warred daily, each fiercer than the last.
A group of flying creatures swooped down first, wings beating, like dark clouds gathering.
Among them were vultures, black eagles, and unknown Yu Clan creatures.
Each resembling ancient winged dragons, wings five or six ters long.
Hearts wavered, all intimidated by the dark swarm above.
"Who dares fight alongside ?"
Long Fei shouted, riding his vulture to et the flying exotic beasts.
A group exclaid, "Is he mad?"
"Does he intend to be a hero alone?"
"Only an idiot would go; let these creatures through. The old folks of Celestial Realms City will stop them!"
"He’s the Imperial Son-in-law, it’s his duty to defend. We’re loose cultivators; it’s none of our business."
"Even a million spirit stones aren’t worth risking our lives!"
"Whoever goes first is a fool!"
"..."
A group murmured, finding reasons for themselves.
Their words barely settled when a woman with white robes and immortal light caught up with Long Fei, sword in hand, joining him.
The crowd gasped, "It’s Saintess Wang Xiaoya of Yaochi Sacred Land!"
"Good heavens, why did she go?"
"Won, so easily swayed!"
"..."
The Seventh Princess watched below, exclaiming, "That woman, how dare she rush ahead of this princess!"
She hurriedly followed with Li Jinxuan, ascending with her sword.
The Lunar Palace Holy Maiden Changxi gently addressed her sisters, "As cultivators, if we cannot contribute to the cosmic order, aid the weak, and uphold righteousness, then living is no better than being walking corpses. Sisters, join in battle!"
She too followed, sword in hand.
The disciples of the Lunar Palace exchanged looks, hesitating before remaining in place.
Soone shouted, "Let her go; she always seeks attention, let her have it this ti!"
"Master sent us to seek fortune, not to slay demonic spirits. It’s none of our business."
"We’ll defend here; as long as these beasts don’t provoke us, we won’t provoke them!"
"..."
In the sky, a streak of golden light flashed, revealing a massive golden eagle.
It cried out, carrying a group of people on its back.
They shouted to Long Fei, "Such a grand occasion can’t do without us. Consort Prince, your comrades are here!"
Who else but Chu Feng and his group?
Big news was on its way, now heading this way with them.
The families of Celestial Realms City had gone mad, deploying tens of thousands of disciples to pursue them.
Ma Army’s flank Commanders Ye Qingtian and Li Yuanqing were ready below, strategically deployed.
Both raised their swords and called, "Brothers of the Ma Army, wrapped in horsehide, die serving the nation, charge!"
"Charge!"
"Charge!"
"Charge!"
"..."
On the ground, a torrent surged against those fleeing, launching an attack on the beasts ahead.
They were the Hundred Thousand Cavalry, fully mobilized, raising a huge cloud of dust under Tianguan City.
In the crowd, soone shouted again, "Imperial Son-in-law, here’s a chance for a contest!"
A burly man wielding two Thunder Drum Golden Hamrs chased after Long Fei in the void.
Behind him followed two young n, shouting in unison, "Li Family Brothers co to help!"
They were none other than Li Yuancheng, Li Yuanrui, and Li Yuanba, the three brothers.
