This is what an immortal should be like

Chapter 230 Modern Firearms
As the countdown drew closer, everyone's tension increased, and the main battle tanks on the periphery had already loaded their shells.

Those present, those behind remote screens, and those sitting in airplanes flying in the sky, were all highly focused.

However, if we were to name the most special person among all these people, it would undoubtedly be Xiong Xuguang. Although he was present at the scene, he was also kept under tight security.

Within five minutes, he had been quickly evacuated and taken directly to the command vehicle.

"10, 9, 8, 7"

The commander counted down the seconds, while at the same time, combat requests were repeatedly heard on the communication channels of various units.

By this point, even ordinary soldiers knew they were likely to be facing a very unusual place. Although many people found it absurd when they first heard that it might be a demon, the tension in this atmosphere had long since overshadowed their initial doubts.

"blasting!"

As the countdown ended, the commander gave the order.

The next moment, the demolition team pressed the start button.

"Boom" "Boom" "Boom" "Boom"

The first blast of the mountainside produced loud noises at various points on the outer perimeter.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
The second explosion shone brightly inside the inner circle, and the mountain peak was almost blown in half. Countless fragments of earth and rocks flew out, and a large part of the mountain slid down to the other side.

This means that the flow of the five elements has been severed, theoretically ending the seal's existence.

"Boom" "Boom" "Boom"

The third explosion rang out directly around the Demon-Sealing Rock, and at the same time, it also rang out on the rock.

At that moment, many people almost saw with their naked eyes that the boulder flashed briefly before being replaced by the explosive flash of the explosive, and the rock was blasted to pieces in an instant.

Although the amount of explosives and the direction of the explosion were precisely controlled, smoke and dust still filled that area for a time.

Everyone's hearts were in their throats.

Xiong Xuguang rushed out of the command vehicle, picked up binoculars, and looked at the direction of the mountain. The on-site commander did the same, since all that could be seen on the screen in the command vehicle was smoke, so it was better to go outside and look.

There's no movement. Is he dead as expected? Are there any remains, like bones?
The lack of significant activity left Xiong Xuguang feeling inexplicably disappointed. In fact, he wasn't the only one; many others, including those waiting behind screens in Kyoto and other locations, also felt a sense of disappointment.

However, it's clear that this disappointment came too early.

Alarms quickly sounded from the command vehicle and at various monitoring locations.

"Beep be ...."

"Electromagnetic signal detected, infrared signal detected, continuously increasing—"

"Biopyrogen—"

The operator yelled into the communication channel; he was extremely nervous at that moment.

This is a biological heat source that appears out of nothing, just as if it did not originally exist in that space, or rather, it appeared there from another dimension of space.

“Zizzizizizi”

Many radar screens began to show fluctuating signals.

Electromagnetic signal interference—

The commander kept shouting into the walkie-talkie.

"Attention all units, attention all units! Maintain observation, visually inspect as needed, watch out for infrared heat sources, and fire as required by the situation—I repeat, no need to request permission to fire—"

Unbeknownst to them, a strange odor seemed to be spreading. Some people couldn't smell it, but others, under high tension and excitement, could vaguely smell a faint body odor, like a special version of the body odor of some animals in the zoo.

Xiong Xuguang was still outside the command vehicle when he smelled that scent, and his heart skipped a beat.

A conclusion drawn from the impact of dreams and memories suddenly surfaced in his mind, prompting him to shout it out loud.

"Everyone be careful, it's demonic energy—"

Almost as soon as Xiong Xuguang finished speaking, a deafening roar erupted from the still-lingering dust.

"Ow--"

The roar was even more loud in the quiet scene, causing many people to cover their ears. Because of the roar, the smoke and dust in the blasted area quickly dissipated.

It appeared to be a giant black beast, its features obscured, its body covered in fur, and it seemed somewhat puzzled at the moment.

"Where is this? What is this place? Has someone set up an array to seal off the spiritual energy? Ugh... Roar."

The monster's voice carried on, then suddenly gave off a painful roar.
At this moment, the demons have also awakened from a long dream. Zhuang Lin and Wuming can enter the dreams of ordinary people, while Xi Miao can control the demons more at will, since she doesn't have to worry about breaking them and can be more brutal.

This demon's long dream is almost equivalent to another side of Xiong Xuguang.

In that nightmare belonging to the demon, he was originally carefree and did whatever he wanted, but he was sealed by the immortal cultivators of Xiong Xuguang's lineage, and then completely lost consciousness until he woke up at this moment.

Is this dream, almost forcibly imposed upon the demon, causing it extreme pain, and is its demonic energy constantly spreading?
Through a thin wisp of cloud in the sky, Zhuang Lin and the others were gathered. Zhou Xianglin was clearly the most excited, staring intently down below and muttering to himself.

"Yes, yes, that's it, just right!"

However, at this moment, Xi Miao did not control the demon; everything was its most natural reaction.

At this moment, almost all the surrounding units tacitly refrained from firing immediately, since the monster showed no intention of moving.

But suddenly, the demon, which was clutching its head in pain, turned its head to look in all directions, its huge demonic eyes filled with bloodshot veins.

"Who are you? Are you from the Fengling Sect? Why can't I sense your presence? Did you send me these mortal blood offerings?"

The monster slowly stood up. Under the observation of all units, the monster's true form was finally revealed. It was a giant wolf that could stand upright, with some traces of transformation into a human body. Its body was covered with black fur and was as tall as a two-story building.
"Spirit Sealing Sect cultivators, show yourselves now!"

The monster roared with a sense of apprehension, but received no response. A visible, smoky color began to emanate from its body, like a strange flame enveloping it, giving off a very eerie feeling.

At least any normal person, even an ordinary soldier, could sense the monster's abnormality and the suffocating, terrifying pressure it brought. They could even perceive its bloodthirsty mental fluctuations.
There's a saying, "naked malice," and many people are truly feeling it right now.

"Okay, I'll eat first—"

At this moment, the demon seemed to go from feigning weakness to launching a sudden attack, going from extreme stillness to extreme movement in an instant, and almost disappeared from many people's sight.

Now, even if they wanted to fire, they couldn't find the target, and everyone was thinking, "Oh no!"

Near an armored vehicle, the monster reappeared, but by the time the soldiers noticed it, it was too late.

"Whoosh~~~"

But when the monster appeared, its claws with sharp nails failed to touch the armored vehicle. It was as if a layer of light suddenly grew on the ground, and it crashed straight into it.

"Bam—"

The demon was directly blasted back by the light membrane, which then shattered completely. The demon was left dazed and confused, falling back into the pit that had appeared earlier.

"Hehe ...

"I understand! The Sealing Spirit Sect's restrictions have truly been broken, completely broken! Hahahahahaha—"

The demon laughed loudly. His previous fear stemmed from the assumption that this was a trap set by the Sealing Spirit Sect. After all, he knew that the other party would open the restriction after many years of sealing to eliminate him. But now it seemed that the restriction had indeed shattered, and what had just happened was the final aftershock.

Amidst this maniacal laughter, a surge of malevolence and demonic energy erupted, and even though it wasn't directed at anyone in particular, it felt as if a giant hand had instantly gripped everyone's hearts.

"Fire freely—"

The commander's mouth was bleeding, clearly from biting his tongue to overcome his extreme fear, and he roared into the radio.

This shout immediately woke up many people. Years of training had created a conditioned reflex, and many veterans immediately carried out the order.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"
The monster, still laughing wildly, suddenly stopped. At that moment, its heart pounded, and it sensed a sudden crisis appearing from all directions.

What's this.
"Boom", "Boom", "Boom", "Boom", "Boom"

The explosions came only a moment after the cannon fire, and the shells reached the monster in an instant, even though they were not far apart.

Armor-piercing shells, incendiary shells, fragmentation shells, and other types of tank ammunition were unleashed.

"Da da da da da da da da da."

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh."

Machine guns, heavy machine guns, and rockets rained down, creating a scorching metal storm at a certain point on Old Locust Hill.
High in the air, the two attack aircraft, intended as a backup, did not launch missiles and remained as a contingency plan.

The commander was shouting incessantly over the radio channel.

"Ceasefire—ceasefire—all units, ceasefire!"

A dozen seconds later, the explosion gradually subsided, but the area around Laohuai Mountain was still filled with smoke and dust.

This time, everyone was still extremely nervous.

In the sky, where Zhuang Lin and the others were, Wuming was serious, Zhuang Lin's expression was calm, Zhou Xianglin held his breath, and Liu Hongyu was also relatively calm.

But Xi Miao's eyes widened, her mouth opened slightly, and her lips trembled slightly.

"This, this is what you call modern firearms?"

The scene was like the application of the Five Thunderbolts, raining down continuously!
In Xi Miao's time, gunpowder hadn't even been invented yet, so the concept of firearms didn't exist, let alone the understanding of modern weapons. Nothing was clearer than seeing it with one's own eyes.

"Master Zhuang, what happened to that monster?"

Zhou Xianglin hurriedly asked a question, saying he couldn't see clearly, while Liu Hongyu gave a wry smile.

"It probably won't get a chance to say its lines."

There was originally a scene where a demon suddenly recognized Xiong Xuguang and thought he was the same person from his previous life, but now...
