Secular world: My destiny has no taboos

Chapter 612 Chapter 622: The Way of Heaven (1)

"go back!"

The Demon God of the End was the first to abandon his opponent and flash back behind the door.

The Fear Demon glared fiercely at the Guanghan Immortal Lord and the others, then, along with the seventy-two pillar demons, returned to the back of the gate with overwhelming malice.

The remaining army of Wuchi Jionghai retreated like the tide, and the Gate of the Divine Abyss seemed to have returned to its state before it was opened.

"They just left like that?"

Zhong Kui stood in the crowd, his face filled with disbelief: "What exactly happened behind the door? What made them rush back in such a hurry?"

Yang Guang also frowned, his face showing doubt and confusion.

He turned his head to look at the mortal master, whose aura was unstable. He saw that the other party seemed to have expected this and seemed to have breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he suddenly realized something and understood.

"It's him!"

"No wonder I haven't seen him all this time. Turns out he went behind the door to cause trouble. That's a good idea."

Watching the army slowly retreat, Yang Guang said calmly, "It's a pity they will come back. Doing this can only quench our thirst for a while."

Yang Guang shook his head and sighed.

In fact, even at this time, doors continued to open within the territory of each dynasty, and a large number of corpses emerged from behind the doors, threatening the lives of the people of each dynasty.

However, he still chose to bring the strongest forces from all dynasties to the Valley of Two Realms to participate in this war.

Moreover, he knew that this was the reason why the barbarians from the northern frontier had come here.

Luo Bingzhong breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the retreating army of corpses.

The Beiming Army has reached its limit and can no longer hold on. At least half of the Beiming Army has been killed or wounded in this battle, and this is only after they were resurrected with the Jade Gourd. Otherwise, the situation would have been even more dire.

Even if subsequent dynasties and the northern frontier sent troops to rescue them, it would still be a drop in the ocean.

Their biggest weakness is the lack of high-end combat capabilities.

"Fortunately, the Prefect has drawn all the enemies away, but what about him?"

Thinking of this, Luo Bingzhong couldn't help but feel worried.

Not only him, but all the other Beiming soldiers were also worried about Lin Beixuan's safety.

Although the battle in the Two Realms Valley was fierce, at least everyone was together and could help each other.

Going behind the door would be even more dangerous for Lin Beixuan, as he would be all alone. If something unexpected happened, he would have no one to help him.

The Heavenly Gang Venerable took a breath and prepared to go behind the door alone to meet Lin Beixuan. However, his suggestion was only approved by Yin Hu, while the other mortal masters all disagreed with him doing so.

"Going behind the door now is no different from suicide. Besides, you are seriously injured and don't have the Heavenly Bead to conceal your presence. You'll be discovered as soon as you enter the door, so how can you expect to help him?"

The Moon Goddess spoke in an icy tone, showing no intention of giving the Heavenly Gang Venerable any face.

At this moment, the Rat stroked its whiskers and said, "Don't panic. I didn't see any death aura in his long lifespan, which means he is not dead yet."

Venerable Tiangang frowned: "Not being dead doesn't mean there's no danger. His last chance for survival in the mortal world rests on his shoulders. If we give up now, what if he really doesn't come back?"

Guanghan Immortal Lord knew that Tiangang Venerable was worried about Lin Beixuan, and sighed helplessly, "Do you think any of us can still make it to the core position behind the door alive?"

"Although the End Demon God and the Fear Demon God retreated, it was not because we left. They were just wary of what Lin Beixuan did behind the door."

"Besides, don't forget, that guy hasn't even made a move yet."

Upon hearing this, all the laypeople present fell silent.

Yang Guang curiously observed the expressions on the faces of the eleven mortal masters, wondering what could possibly cause them to react in this way.

Guanghan Immortal Lord continued, "Among the seventy-two pillar demon gods, the upper four pillar demon gods are the most powerful, possessing the power to access the origin of the world behind the gate."

"Or rather, the power they wield is the very essence of their world, and all lower-level demons must obey the commands of the four upper-level demons."

"Only two Upper Four Pillar Demon Gods appeared in the Valley of Two Realms this time. There are two others who have not yet appeared, one of whom is that guy—the Primordial Demon God."

The words of the Moon Goddess seemed to be addressed to Yang Guang, who was unaware of the truth.

"The four pillars of demons are not all of equal strength; even among them, there are differences in strength."

"The Primordial Demon God I just mentioned is the Pillar Demon God ranked first among the Upper Four Pillars."

"The war hundreds of years ago was only because the Primordial Demon God got involved. We were eventually unable to resist the invasion. In the end, the Lord of the Underworld personally led the Underworld to block the Primordial Demon God at the gate, which relieved the crisis."

The Moon Goddess's gaze swept over the mortals around her.

Shenhou's golden headband was covered in cracks, and his shoulder was torn apart by the power of the World Demon God of the End. Yinhu's eye had lost its former luster and was completely damaged, and his breath was weak.

She couldn't help but smile: "We are no longer able to withstand another offensive like before. If we suffer losses because of this, we will lose all hope."

“He lured the enemy over to give us a chance to catch our breath. If we go inside to rescue him now, everything he did behind the door will be for nothing.”

The Heavenly Gang Venerable took a deep breath, abandoning the idea of ​​rescuing Lin Beixuan, and nodded, saying, "Mao Tu is right. Let's deal with the matters in the Two Realms Valley next."

"We suffered heavy casualties in this battle."

As he spoke, he looked at the battlefield that was being cleaned up.

In this battle, not only were their mortal lords seriously injured, but many mortal gods also perished, and the Northern Underworld Army and the Yin Soldiers suffered even greater casualties.

Venerable Tiangang sighed and looked at Divine Lord Huanxin: "Weiyang, I'll leave the rest to you."

The Divine Lord Huanxin said nothing, but walked into the crowd and used his divine power to heal the injured.

As for those who have already died... she used the jade gourd to collect their souls. If the mortal world still exists in the future, perhaps these souls can enter the underworld and become underworld officials.

Not far away, Yang Guang stood with the Emperor of the Northern Frontier, talking in hushed tones.

Although the two belonged to different dynasties, they were forced to reach a consensus on cooperation at this moment.

“The Primordial Demon God…” Yang Guang stroked the Imperial Seal, and purple-gold dragon energy flowed around him.

"Looking at the Moon God, I'm afraid even if all of us combined, we might not be able to defeat this Primordial Demon God."

His gaze swept over the remaining Northern Underworld Army and Yin Soldiers, then turned to the Northern Frontier Emperor, and he said calmly.

"If they try to break in again from behind the door, we'll probably have to be the two of us holding the line."

Now that the Northern Underworld Army and the Yin Soldiers have suffered heavy casualties and can no longer hold the line, they will have to act as shields to block the attacks of the Jionghai.

Emperor Amucan of the Northern Frontier glanced indifferently at Yang Guang. He held little hatred for this emperor of past dynasties, but also little affection for him.

After all, he and Yang Guang were emperors of two different dynasties. Previously, the barbarians had taken advantage of the weakness of each dynasty to invade and almost occupied Longzhou.

However, they were eventually chased back by Lin Beixuan, who was heading north, and lost a high priest in the process.

Amucan said calmly, "When it's our turn in the Northern Frontier to stand at the forefront, we will not back down. I still understand the principle of 'if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold'."

Yang Guang's smile gradually faded, and he said in a serious tone, "It's good that you know. Then I won't say any more. I hope your army will not retreat in the face of battle. This battle is not just for me to fight for the previous dynasty, but for the entire Divine Land." Seeing Yang Guang's demeanor, Amu's expression also became unusually solemn. He clasped his hands in a fist salute to Yang Guang and said, "The barbarian army will never retreat a single step. Take care!"

After speaking, Amucan returned to his own troops and summoned the barbarian generals for a meeting.

Yang Guang turned his head to look at Huo Jun who was walking over: "Tell the soldiers that no matter what the outcome of this battle is, I, Yang Guang, will take care of their parents and children to the very end."

Upon hearing this, Huo Jun glanced at Yang Guang in shock, bowed to him, and then nodded emphatically.

For a monarch to make such a promise on the eve of war indicates that Yang Guang had very little confidence in winning the war and needed to use huge benefits to boost the morale of his troops.

Of course, Huo Jun understood this perfectly. Even if Yang Guang hadn't called him, he would have done everything he could to boost the morale of the army to its highest level.

"We will definitely win this war!" Huo Jun kept telling himself to be confident.

He looked at the Li army, who were already lined up neatly and ready for battle, his gaze firm.

……

Meanwhile, somewhere in Shunzhou, a bronze door stands on an open plain.

There were many people around, their eyes fixed on the bronze door, not daring to let go of their weapons for a moment.

They weren't wearing armor, but rather a military uniform that appeared to be made of an unusual material, lightweight yet offering considerable defensive capabilities.

Moreover, these uniforms are engraved with runes that faintly reflect the divine power of incense, and the runes flash light from time to time, like breathing.

"Brother Liu, so much time has passed, this bronze door probably won't open again, right?" a young man said to his captain.

Liu Yu didn't turn around when he heard the voice, not even lifting his eyelids, and said coldly, "Have you forgotten the principles of being a soldier in the secular world? Go back to your place!"

Despite being reprimanded, the young man dared not show the slightest dissatisfaction. He shouted "Yes!" on the spot and obediently returned to his seat.

The cold wind was desolate, and the biting wind blew against the team, making everyone shiver.

However, no one got up to move; they remained like statues, carrying out their duties to the end.

Just then, the previously calm bronze door suddenly trembled.

Liu Yu's eyes narrowed, and she immediately raised her right hand.

"Crack, click, click..."

A series of cocking sounds rang out from the ranks, and the faint smell of gunpowder mixed with the aroma of incense began to permeate the air.

A group of people were on high alert.

Even though it was cold, everyone's palms couldn't help but sweat.

Liu Yu whispered into the communicator clipped to his collar: "The bronze gate at Huangfengping seems to be reopening. Requesting reinforcements from headquarters."

Liu Yu repeated it three times until a reply came from the other end of the communicator before she stopped talking.

His eyes were fixed on the bronze door, and he dared not look away for a moment.

The next second, the bronze door began to shake violently, just like when the door was about to open.

Liu Yu had already placed his finger on the trigger, waiting for the door to open and the skeleton to appear before giving the order to fire.

After some time, the door finally opened.

However, the scene was not quite what he had imagined.

Because... only one person came out.

The man looked somewhat disheveled, his face pale, his black robe worn and tattered, and his half-closed eyes revealed his current state of exhaustion.

Upon seeing this person, Liu Yu paused for a moment, then suddenly roared, "No shooting!"

Upon hearing this, his subordinates became even more puzzled and all looked at Liu Yu.

Liu Yu took a deep breath, voluntarily left the group, and walked towards that person.

As he walked, he kept saying into the communicator, "I think I saw the Northern Underworld Army. He looks very tired and seems to have suffered some serious injuries."

"I am now walking towards him to verify his identity. Please send someone over from headquarters as soon as possible."

This time, the voice on the other end answered very quickly.

"Your request has been received, and I will keep in touch with you."

"it is good!"

Liu Yu, holding the musket, walked to a spot not far in front of the man before stopping and calling out in standard Xuan language, "Is the newcomer Lord Beiming?"

Then he saw the man raise his head wearily, his dark eyes like two slowly burning flames.

"Where is this place?"

Lin Beixuan moved his chapped lips, his tone tinged with confusion.

Just as Liu Yu was about to reply, he heard a loud whooshing sound from behind. The demon painter Xu Shu and another mortal god belonging to the official government of the mortal world had arrived beside him.

"So fast!" Liu Yu was secretly shocked and turned her gaze to Xu Shu.

The other party and the mortal god were panting heavily, clearly having rushed over immediately after receiving the news.

Although Huang Fengping was not far from headquarters, less than a minute had passed since he gave his report.

Xu Shu stepped forward, stared at Lin Beixuan for a while, and after confirming that he was right, immediately replied, "This is Huangfengping, the official territory of Xuan Kingdom, located in Shunzhou."

"Shunzhou?" Lin Beixuan frowned. "Why were you brought here!"

How far is it from here to Liangjie Mountain?

Upon hearing the words "Two Realms Mountain," Xu Shu was certain that the person standing before him was the Lord of the Northern Underworld.

"Shunzhou is thousands of miles away from Liangzhou Liangjie Mountain."

After thinking for a moment, Xu Shu quickly added, "But if Your Excellency wishes, I have a way to teleport you there directly."

Lin Beixuan nodded upon hearing this: "Thank you for your trouble! Please send me there as soon as possible."

As he spoke, Lin Beixuan was also constantly absorbing the spiritual energy that only existed in the mortal world, slowly restoring his strength.

He's like a dried-out sponge now, constantly absorbing nutrients from the surrounding water as soon as he enters it.

Xu Shu dared not delay and asked Lin Beixuan to wait while he went to make preparations.

However, what they called preparations were actually to bring over the highest-ranking official leader from the secular world.

Due to the special nature of the secular princes, the government did not openly arrange for people to support the Two Realms Valley. Instead, some secular princes who volunteered to go to the Two Realms Valley were mixed into the armies of each dynasty.

For them, even the most dangerous world is far less dangerous than the safety of this world.

But at the same time, they were also very puzzled as to why Lin Beixuan, who was clearly a person of the mortal world, would devote himself so much to the secular world.
