Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

Chapter 725 Lu Chen Makes a Move

Bai Wenbin gripped his sword tightly, his body trembling involuntarily. If it were just the initial wave of demonic energy, his tens of thousands of soldiers could have easily withstood it.

But in the current situation, the soldiers he brought, along with the soldiers of Black Moon City, simply cannot stop them. The number of monsters piled up is already as high as the walls of Black Moon City. What chance do they have of winning?

No! He can't die here!

He was a general of the Great Chu Dynasty, and his future was bright.

Although he liked Ji Qiuyu very much, he only coveted her beauty. There are so many beautiful women in the world, and he didn't want to lose his life for a woman he had never even slept with.

Thinking of this, Bai Wenbin immediately turned and ran, without even leaving a word.

He knew Ji Qiuyu's personality, and if he advised her to leave at this time, she would most likely not go.

Moreover, he needed time to persuade Ji Qiuyu. If it was delayed for too long, the demonic tide might have already surged up. If they didn't leave now, they would be even less able to leave later.

At this moment, Ji Qiuyu was unaware that Bai Wenbin had already fled. She gripped her sword tightly and continued to fight fiercely against the demons.

However, there were simply too many monsters. Soon, the entire city wall was filled with monsters, and fewer and fewer soldiers remained alive on the Black Moon City wall.

Black Moon City originally had only a few hundred thousand soldiers, and with the tens of thousands of soldiers brought by Bai Wenbin, the total number of soldiers was only about two hundred thousand.

However, the number of demons had clearly exceeded 200,000, possibly even a million. In addition, the demons that rushed up later were much stronger, and the soldiers of the Celestial Realm were no match for them.

Just then, a huge demon rushed in front of Ji Qiuyu, and Ji Qiuyu quickly used her sword energy to fight back.

This demon was incredibly powerful; Ji Qiuyu's sword energy barely scratched it, and it also possessed a power capable of suppressing a cultivator's spiritual energy.

Ji Qiuyu immediately sensed something was wrong. This was the power of the Heavenly Demon. Only the power of the Heavenly Demon could have such a severe suppressive effect on cultivators.

Sure enough, all of this was orchestrated by that Heavenly Demon of the Sealed Demon Forbidden Land. It seems that the Heavenly Demon's seal has already loosened.

But now is not the time to think about these things. If things continue like this, all the people of Black Moon City will become food for the monsters.

After Black Moon City falls, these demons will soon spread to other parts of the Great Chu Dynasty. Once the demons leave Black Moon City, it will not be so easy to intercept them.

Ji Qiuyu gritted her teeth. The emperor of the Great Chu Dynasty was a fool. Black Moon City was such an important place, yet he only gave her a few hundred thousand soldiers, and she was the only cultivator at the Creation Realm. How was she supposed to defend it?

At this moment, the demon in front of Ji Qiuyu suddenly stretched out its claws and slapped directly at Ji Qiuyu. Ji Qiuyu quickly dodged. Her sword energy had no effect on this demon, and it would be very difficult to kill it. She had to think of another way.

Just as Ji Qiuyu dodged the attack of that monster, another identical monster suddenly appeared behind her, and Ji Qiuyu instantly sensed the danger behind her.

"not good!"

It was too late for Ji Qiuyu to dodge. Just as the demon's claw was about to strike her from behind, countless images from the past flashed through Ji Qiuyu's mind.

Ji Qiuyu's panic vanished at that moment, replaced by a profound sense of calm. She had long known that guarding Black Moon City would inevitably lead to her death.

However, just when Ji Qiuyu thought she was doomed, streams of spiritual energy spread out from afar. When these spiritual energies came into contact with the demons' bodies, the demons were terrified and fled in all directions.

Seeing the two demons beside her flee in fright, Ji Qiuyu was stunned; it was the first time she had ever witnessed such a scene.

Then she turned her head to look in the direction from which the spiritual energy was spreading, and when she saw that it was Lu Chen, Ji Qiuyu was stunned again.

Is it him?

Lu Chen threw the sword out and then activated his sword energy.

Level 8 Frost Sword!!!

The next moment, countless sword energies rushed towards the demonic tide. Wherever the sword energies passed, all the demons were frozen. In just a moment, hundreds of thousands of demons were annihilated.

Both the soldiers on the city wall and Ji Qiuyu were stunned by this scene.

This was the first time they had ever seen someone kill so many monsters in an instant.

These demons, influenced by the Heavenly Demon, possess some degree of immunity to spiritual power, making it difficult for Ji Qiuyu to eliminate them on a large scale even when using sword techniques.

It is difficult for a cultivator to eliminate demons by relying solely on their individual strength; they can basically only rely on black gold weapons.

But now, this man has actually killed so many demons by relying on some kind of sword technique. How did he do that?

He looked like the bane of monsters.

At this moment, the demonic tide's attack weakened somewhat, and some demons began to retreat.

What just happened not only stunned everyone, but also greatly intimidated the monsters present.

A strange light flashed in Ji Qiuyu's beautiful eyes. Who exactly was this man? Why did he possess such power?

Just as Ji Qiuyu was distracted, Lu Chen made his second move.

Level 8 Frost Sword!!!

In an instant, all the monsters not far from Lu Chen were frozen into ice, and then turned into ice shards.

This was the first time Lu Chen had used the Heavenly Rank Sword Technique, the Eighth Level Frost Sword, in such a real battle, and he hadn't expected the effect to be so good.

Of course, this is mainly because he cultivated the Demon Burial Technique, so his sword energy can dispel demonic energy, which is fatal to demons.

With Lu Chen's intervention, the demons clearly realized that something was wrong, and some of them began to flee towards the Forbidden Land of Sealed Demons.

Lu Chen then made another move, and in less than a quarter of an hour, he completely dispelled the demonic tide.

Everyone present felt like they were dreaming; they had never imagined that fighting the demonic tide could be so easy.

Who exactly is that man? He's incredibly powerful!

Ji Qiuyu was also watching Lu Chen from a distance. At this moment, her feelings were somewhat complicated. She originally thought that Lu Chen was just an ordinary cultivator in the Creation Realm, and keeping him around would only add more combat power. However, she did not expect that he would become the key figure in turning the tide of the battle.

Why had she never heard of such a powerful being before? Logically speaking, someone who could easily kill demons, even if his cultivation level wasn't particularly high, shouldn't be unknown.

Lu Chen was unaware of the people's gazes. He stood on the city wall, gazing at the demonic energy of the forbidden land in the distance.

The demonic energy above the Demon Sealing Forbidden Land was still extremely dense, but perhaps because of his intervention, the demons only dared to stay inside the Demon Sealing Forbidden Land and dared not leave.

This scene felt incredibly surreal; one person alone was enough to keep the demonic tide from leaving the sealed demon-forbidden area.

Are they really not dreaming?

If this man stays in Black Moon City, wouldn't all the demons be afraid to leave the Demon Sealing Forbidden Land? And wouldn't the demon tide disappear?
