Begin immortality by slaying demons.

Chapter 697: This Knife is Called Hiding Skill in Clumsiness

Songfeng Mansion, in front of the attic.

A young man in black shirt stood with his hands hanging down, waiting quietly.

When a man with a black beard strode out to greet him, Shen Yi bowed and said, "Nanyang came to see Lord Yang. I have something important to tell you."

"Lord Yang?" The black-bearded man was startled for a moment, then frowned and said, "Didn't Lord Yang go to the Nine Prefectures in the west to help you?"

"..."

Shen Yi slowly loosened his hands and looked up speechlessly.

Aid the nine prefectures in the west?

When he was guarding the Nine Prefectures, he killed several fifth-rank monsters and condensed them into a guardian stone. After thinking about it, he decided that he was not short of manpower anyway, so he simply sent a guardian stone back.

Although those with high levels of cultivation can easily see the abnormality of the stone.

But this group of big monsters are not like the Qingluan of the past. They don’t even have any servants around them, leaving only Zi Ling to serve them.

There are all kinds of monsters in the place, so the probability of sneaking in is much greater. Even if you fail, the only thing you would lose is a guardian stone.

In the end, Shen Yi was lucky enough to get some important information.

Many times, when major forces compete with each other, the competition is about who will come first.

For example, now, if the imperial court knew the plans of the three great monsters in advance, what would be waiting for the group of great monsters would not be the city defenders who were caught off guard, but Yang Mingli, the third-rank General Zhennan.

While being able to capture them all in one fell swoop, it can also make those monsters feel fearful and have no idea how many masters are in the imperial court.

A good thing that kills two birds with one stone.

Therefore, Shen Yi set out directly and came to deliver the letter in person, and followed behind, picking up a lot of demon life for free without any effort.

But no matter how much he planned, he didn't expect that Yang Mingli was not here.

"This……"

Seeing Shen Yi's silence, the man with black beard was also a little embarrassed. You know, Lord Yang went there to investigate the General Nanyang in front of him.

As a colleague, he couldn't speak directly, so he could only say tactfully: "General Nanyang has something important to do, so hurry back now. Lord Yang should still be in Jianyang."

"No need."

Shen Yi shook his head and said softly, "Assemble the nearby demon-killing officers as quickly as possible and notify Songfeng Prefecture that a demon disaster is approaching. Try to avoid any damage."

These concise and clear words somehow changed their meaning when they fell into the ears of the black-bearded man.

Not to mention that the two sides have already separated. Even if they haven't, the two of them are both titled generals and are of the same rank, but the other party actually started giving orders on his own.

Besides, there were already problems in the nine western prefectures, and General Nanyang himself was still under suspicion of "concealing the truth" and he had actually begun to take charge of the affairs of Songfeng Prefecture.

Under the command of Lord Yang, there has not been any major chaos in the entire Eighteen Prefectures so far.

The man with black beard forced a smile, but before he could say anything, the next words that rang in his ears made him freeze in place as if struck by lightning.

"Eight fourth-grade demon immortals and thirty-six fifth-grade great demons."

The other party didn't even use descriptions like "approximately", but instead gave precise numbers, as if he had seen these monsters with his own eyes.

When it comes to slaying demons, there is no room for trifling.

When he came to his senses, the man with black beard was already breaking out in a cold sweat. If such a group of powerful monsters were allowed to approach Songfeng Prefecture quietly, there would probably be only twenty-six prefectures left in Da Nanzhou in half a day at most.

Moreover, Lord Sheep and Lord Phoenix are not here. If they are torn open by the monsters, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Thank you, General Nanyang, for the reminder! I will go inform the government office and my colleagues right away!"

The man with black beard stood up straight suddenly and bowed respectfully to the young man in front of him.

In any case, receiving the news in advance can always reduce a lot of losses.

Besides, since General Nanyang has arrived, he will certainly not stand idly by. With the help of the other party, even if he cannot win, he can at least hold on for a while longer.

When Lord Yang finds out something is wrong, he should rush back to Songfeng Mansion as soon as possible, and there shouldn't be any major problems.

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Shen Yi nodded his chin, turned around and walked towards the street.

The notification is over, and all that remains is to figure out how to respond.

Since reaching the fourth rank, Shen Yi has had several battles of varying sizes, and he has a relatively clear understanding of his own strength. However, facing eight powerful monsters of the same level at once still puts a lot of pressure on him.

Especially when fighting within the Divine Dynasty, there are many people and eyes.

The Arhat Golden Body, Taixu Golden Pill, and Immortal Seal that he relied on all had too obvious characteristics and were full of troubles.

We have to hold back and fight, but we also have to ensure that Songfeng Mansion is not harmed.

"It's difficult."

Shen Yi murmured and sighed softly.

Immediately afterwards, his figure disappeared into the crowd.

……

Songfeng Mansion, Juyang Tower.

This restaurant is one of the tallest buildings in the city. The top floor is like a spire. It can only accommodate one table of guests. Even if a high-ranking official wants to entertain guests here, he has to make a reservation long in advance.

At this moment, there was only a man and a woman sitting opposite each other.

The reason why Hong Jing chose this place was simply because he could see far away from the high place and observe any abnormalities at the first time, making it easier for his senior sister to take action.

Moreover, if we jump up from this place, it will attract more attention from the people in the city.

"Since you know that a demonic disaster is coming, have you notified the government to prepare in advance? Where are the soldiers of the Immortal Court?"

When Fairy Tiandong was doing her business, the childishness on her face quietly faded away, and she finally took on the demeanor of the head of the second generation of disciples of the Yuchi Immortal Sect.

"The Immortal Court is still mobilizing troops, they should be here soon, just waiting for my news. As for Songfeng Yamen, I have also sent a letter to inform them." Hong Jing gently squeezed the wine cup in his hand.

"Since we've been notified, why is there no movement in Songfeng Mansion?" Fairy Tiandong looked downstairs in confusion.

"This... I'm not quite sure about this, junior brother. The government offices in the mortal world are already cumbersome and bloated with formalities." Hong Jing shrugged helplessly, but sighed in his heart. If the imperial court were to react in advance, there would be no chance for Yu Chi Xianmen to display its power, and this stage would be in vain.

Upon hearing this, Fairy Tiandong frowned instinctively.

After not being seen for many years, how come the Immortal Court and the Divine Dynasty have become so miserable? No wonder these big demons have started to have ideas again.

"It's okay. With Senior Sister here to guard, nothing will go wrong."

Hong Jing persuaded with a smile. Just as he finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of the changes on the street from the corner of his eye. He saw neatly arranged soldiers marching across the long street. The people on the street avoided them and quickly rushed back home.

"It's OK, at least better than the Immortal Court."

Fairy Tiandong's brows gradually relaxed, and her complexion looked much better. She was even in the mood to tease Hong Jing.

"..."

Hong Jing slowly put down the wine cup and took a deep breath.

What was going on? Did the Songfeng government really receive a summons?
How is this possible? Only our family, the Bodhi Sect, and that group of great demons know about this matter. No matter which side, there is no reason for them to tip off the Divine Dynasty.

Could it be that the imperial court made this guess on its own?
Forget it, Master has already figured out everything. As long as the third-rank strongman from the imperial court does not take action, the defense of Songfeng Mansion alone will not be able to stop the monsters.

Among the mortals in this city, some will die.

Otherwise, how could he know the pain, and how could he find out that the imperial court was unreliable? Only in this way could the mercy of the immortal sect be revealed. Hong Jing forced himself to suppress his mind.

The two of them sat like this until the evening.

The red glow in the sky gradually faded and was about to be swallowed up by the endless night. At this moment, the sunset glow, which had been dim to the extreme, suddenly burst into an unprecedented gorgeous scarlet.

Even though he already knew everything, Hong Jing couldn't help but tremble in his heart the moment he saw the monstrous evil spirit with his own eyes.

He hadn't seen such a grand scene for many years.

To deal with such a group of big monsters, even if Qingluan was not dead yet, a fourth-rank great immortal general would not be qualified to be the commander-in-chief. At least he had to be led by a third-rank immortal.

This group of demons live in seclusion in remote areas, but their power is increasing instead of decreasing!
"Sister, it is indeed dangerous. I will mobilize the troops right away!"

Hong Jing suddenly stood up and rushed to the other side.

In this situation, if he stayed here, he would definitely follow his senior sister to fight together. However, facing that group of fourth-grade demon fairies, even with the protection of the fairy seal, he would probably die on the spot if he was not careful.

Hong Jing only got the credit for leading the way, there was no need for him to take such a risk. Moreover, he had a special identity as an immortal general, and if he stayed here, he would steal the limelight from the Yu Chi Immortal Sect.

So I had already prepared an excuse.

"Go back quickly."

Fairy Tiandong's mind was completely focused on the evil spirit in the sky. She took a deep breath and her face looked a little ugly.

Although she knew that her master would not let her go down the mountain to save the world unless it was absolutely necessary, she did not expect that the situation in the world had become so dangerous.

Facing such a big monster, even if she used all her means, it would be impossible to stop it completely. She could only protect herself, but it was far from solving the problem of monster disaster.

"Prefect Songfeng, I am Yuchi Tiandong, help me subdue the demon!"

Fairy Tiandong acted promptly and, looking at the soldiers who were already ready for battle, she shouted loudly, wanting to cooperate with the imperial energy of the human world to fight the enemy together.

At the same time, Qianli's figure had already drawn her sword and stepped into the sky!

According to common sense, at a time when such a disaster suddenly strikes, it is a great thing for the court if there is a Taiyi Immortal who can step forward, especially a leader among the younger generation.

But what was a little embarrassing was that the person who was in charge of adjusting the imperial energy in the government office clearly noticed the figure of Fairy Tiandong, but showed no intention of cooperating.

The densely packed soldiers were still standing in the same place, all looking forward with shocked expressions on their faces.

"you……"

Seeing this, Fairy Tiandong felt a tightness in her chest.

I clearly came here to help, but was ignored like this. Anyone would feel aggrieved.

However, before she finished her words, when she looked outside the city, the scene that came into her sight made her stunned for a moment.

Outside the towering city, red clouds covered the earth and a group of monsters gathered.

A tiger with a terrifying body, several thousand feet long and as big as a mountain, pounced out first. Its huge tiger paw fell down, intending to tear apart the imperial aura, smash the magnificent city wall, and open a path for the monsters behind it.

hold head high--

The tiger's roar shattered gold and split stones, forcing the soldiers who were ready for battle to retreat three steps.

You know, these seemingly ordinary soldiers and generals, because they had received the news in advance, were not only blessed by the imperial energy of Songfeng Mansion, but also part of the imperial energy of several surrounding mansions was temporarily mobilized over.

Iron soldiers are like a mountain!

I'm afraid even an ordinary Taiyi Immortal can't shake this military formation.

This beast is extremely ferocious and rarely seen in the world.

At least within the territory of the Divine Dynasty, such a powerful monster has not appeared for many years.

But the reason why the soldiers were shocked and Fairy Tiandong was stunned in the air was because the tiger's paw that covered the sky and the sun failed to land successfully on the city wall.

Above the city gate, a tall figure was standing on the void.

He was seen wearing a dark-gold crown, black armor, and black clouds rolling around his body, like a long cape.

Looking at his face, he is in his twenties, still young and handsome.

The knife was still in his sheath, held in his palm.

The young man grasped the knife and stretched out his palm, then he lightly placed his five-fingered fist on the tiger's paw.

It looks like a thin beam supporting the majestic hall!
In Songfeng Mansion, the demon slayers who were hastily recalled were taking out their magic weapons and preparing to fight. Even though they had received the news in advance, due to the rush, there were only three titled generals who rushed back, including the man with black beard.

Fortunately, these three people are all fourth-grade Taiyi True Immortals, and none of them are weaker than Wushan, so they are qualified to participate in this battle.

They were originally still surprised by the appearance of Fairy Tiandong, but their eyes turned and all fell on the figure above the city gate.

Perhaps it was because the black shirt he wore before was too plain, and the armor he wore now is gorgeous yet also cold.

Even the black-bearded man took several breaths to react, muttering: "This is... This is General Nanyang?!"

The other two titled generals, who were originally questioning whether there was such a horrific demonic disaster, were now silent with their eyes wide open.

That young guy was actually so powerful.

Without showing any magical powers, he was able to stop such a ferocious monster with just his flesh and blood body.

next moment.

Shen Yi suddenly clenched the scabbard tightly, and the golden-patterned black sword burst out and fell into his right palm.

And in the left palm that was still tightly grasping the scabbard, golden light burst out, like a long river flowing backwards, enveloping the body of the tiger demon and blasting it back with a fierce force.

A huge tiger body as big as a mountain flew out, and the sound of breaking the wind was like thunder, causing the faces of the monsters behind it to change suddenly, and they all stood up to avoid it.

It was supposed to be a blow that could destroy the city, but it turned into such a miserable appearance.

The monsters instinctively looked up towards the sky above the city gate, wanting to see who was the person who reacted so quickly and came out of the city alone to intercept them.

What caught their sight were Shen Yi's slightly narrowed eyes, in whose dark pupils the sharp edge of a blade was reflected.

I saw a long sword with golden patterns cutting through the void, and the vast power of disaster turned into endless sword light, spreading at a speed invisible to the naked eye, and shattered the sky!
The monsters that stood up to avoid it, those with high cultivation could still dodge, but those big monsters of only fifth rank could not escape the lightning-fast sword light.

puff!puff!
The sounds of flesh and blood being torn apart echoed dully through the sky.

This knife surprised everyone present and shocked the entire Songfeng Mansion!
Even the fairy Tiandong's pupils shrank slightly.

It's not that this method is so advanced, on the contrary, this knife does not involve any techniques, it is simply a wielding of the power of robbery, and it is a knife that gets half the result with twice the effort.

This person clearly shows his contempt for the monsters!

Fairy Tiandong was a top disciple of the second generation and had a high level of cultivation, so naturally she also heard the murmurs of those with the highest levels of cultivation in the city.

General Nanyang...

Is this a court official? !

She clenched the sword in her hand in surprise: "There is such a thing in the Divine Dynasty."

As everyone knows, the generals of the Divine Dynasty also practiced cultivation, but under the deliberate efforts of the Three Religions, they were only slightly better than those casual practitioners and had the opportunity to come into contact with the Dao Fruits and Fruit Positions. However, most of them just picked up the leftovers from the Three Religions and learned miscellaneous things but not in depth.

With the help of the supreme treasure, the Imperial Energy of the Human World, his cultivation speed is not inferior to that of the immortal disciples, and is even faster.

But once they start fighting, they have a rough foundation and are usually at the bottom of the same realm. They can only fight against the disciples of the Immortal Sect with the help of the imperial energy. Once they leave the territory of the Divine Dynasty, no one takes them seriously.

However, based on the two hands I just saw.

Fairy Tiandong actually had a vague thought in her heart...that the other party might not be inferior to her!
