Chapter 2081 Demonic Tribulation
Dantong Town used to be rich in Dantong, a metal that can assist in spiritual practice and is sold at a high price.
However, in comparison, the Dai family near this town is more famous, and even in Xiqiu City, it is considered a considerable force.
The Dai family has lived and multiplied here for five or six thousand years. Currently, there are two Nascent Souls in the family, and the whereabouts of one Nascent Soul ancestor is unknown.
This family is relatively conservative and does not hire any Nascent Soul priests from outside, otherwise their power would be even greater.
It happened that the Jindan who was in charge of communication had not left, so the servant went to inquire about the current situation of the Dai family.
"The Dai family..." Jin Dan was a little disappointed when he heard these two words, "They guard their ancestral land tightly and rarely come to the city."
Although Qiu Shui City's defense is relatively organized, the major forces under its rule are also a group of loose sand.
It is normal for such a situation to occur when the people are spontaneously organizing their defense.
Qiu Shui City itself does not obey the orders of Xi Qiu City, so it has no way of blaming others.
Jindan complained a few words and asked curiously, what do you want to do with the Dai family?
"Of course there is something," the book boy didn't pay much attention to him. Why are you, a mere Jindan, asking about Yuanying's affairs?
Seeing his unfriendly attitude, Jindan naturally lost interest in continuing to talk.
In fact, he originally wanted to tell the other party that the Dai family would send people to Qiu Shui City every five days.
In addition to purchasing supplies, they also exchanged information with each other. Even if it was spontaneous resistance by the people, there was a need to exchange information.
However, in the past month, no one from the Dai family has appeared.
The book boy didn't know that he missed some news because of his indifference.
Early the next morning, the four packed up and set off, their destination being Dantong Town, more than 5,000 kilometers away.
They did not release the flying boat, but traveled purely in their physical bodies. However, this distance was nothing for a Nascent Soul.
However, after they had traveled more than a thousand kilometers, some wandering demons began to appear on the road.
Since they encountered it, the four Yuanyings would certainly not show mercy and would destroy it easily.
As they continued to go deeper, they encountered more and more sporadic demons.
Qu Jianlei simply took out a laser sniper rifle and gave one to each person, "Try to save your spiritual energy."
The little spiritual energy they consumed was really nothing, but since Lord Qu Ling was so cautious, no one would refuse.
Anyway, when dealing with demons, it is never too cautious, and Hongyeling is an expert in dealing with demons.
Facts have proved that Qu Jianlei's caution was not wrong, because they killed many demons and eventually attracted many groups of demons.
The first ones to arrive were only a small group of demons led by Jindan.
However, as more and more Heavenly Demons were wiped out, more and more Golden Core Heavenly Demons came.
When they were still six or seven hundred kilometers away from Dantong Town, there were already more than ten Jindan Heavenly Demons besieging them.
There was a genuine demonic aura surrounding the four of them, making it look extremely eerie and terrifying.
If they fought while advancing, they could still move forward, but Qu Jianlei suggested, "How about showing some strength?"
"That's fine," Huo Jiujian agreed, "We're almost at Dantong Town, we can't take these things with us."
City Lord Huo is a rather utilitarian person, but one has to admit that his moral standards are also high.
Then the four of them released their Nascent Soul aura and killed the surrounding demons like chopping melons and vegetables.
No one used their strongest strength, but it was basically enough.
There was still some demonic energy remaining in the surroundings, but the four of them ignored it. At this moment, they really couldn't take care of such a small matter.
When they arrived at Dantong Town, they were stunned - there was no living person in the town.
Strictly speaking, there are no normal people left, and there are not many remaining skeletons, but there are hundreds of demonized cultivators wandering around.
Most of these cultivators were in the Qi Refining stage, and there were also three in the Foundation Establishment stage. They had dazed eyes and ferocious faces, and it was obvious that they had lost their minds.
The worst is the Qi Refining Stage. Because of insufficient cultivation and the demonic energy, some demons have lost their human form.
Some were missing arms and legs, and some had half their heads gone.
But even so, they were still able to move, sense the breath of living people, and rush over one after another.
"It's too late to save him," Qu Jianlei raised his hand, and a ray of light descended from the sky, directly clearing away the evil spirit.
Immediately afterwards, figures fell to the ground one after another. Some demons' skin and flesh turned into pus, and some pus and blood even turned into green smoke.
In just a few breaths of time, most demons were left with only a skeleton, and some did not even have a complete skeleton.
Only the corpses of three foundation-building cultivators were relatively intact.
"Master Qu Ling has a good method," Huo Jiujian couldn't help but praise, "This light magic is extremely sharp."
He was born in the Star Palace, so naturally he had a good vision. Moreover, the Star Palace was connected to starlight, so its own light-based magic was not bad either.
Moreover, City Lord Huo was very sure that this light magic was not the upper limit of Lord Qu Ling's attack, and it should be just an ordinary attack.
Because everyone has come all the way here, everyone is holding back, and when fighting against the devil, it is necessary to leave more space for reaction.
"Hmm?" Qu Jianlei did not have time to be polite with him. Instead, he frowned and looked into the distance.
One of the Foundation Establishment corpses that was the farthest away stood up unsteadily, and its dull eyeballs actually began to move slightly.
"This is..." The servant wanted to clean it up, but he was unsure and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Qu Jianlei.
Anyway, it's just a foundation-building project, what kind of waves can it cause?
However, Qu Jianlei discovered a familiar feeling from the other person's body: It should be... obsession?
He said calmly, "My friend, please leave immediately. There is no point in staying any longer!"
The foundation-building demon tried to turn his head and sent out a divine thought with difficulty, "Have all the people... withdrawn?"
"That should be the case," Huo Jiujian answered him this time. "There aren't many corpses in this town. Do you know where they went?"
"Yes, Dai... Dai Jialing," the foundation-building demon answered with difficulty, "Thank you all for your help, seniors. Please grind me to dust."
After sending out this divine consciousness, the corpse fell limply to the ground again.
"Grind the bones and scatter the ashes?" Huo Jiu looked at Qu Jianlei suspiciously, "Is this necessary?"
"Yes," Qu Jianlei raised his hand and another beam of white light fell, "This person must have used some secret technique to maintain his sanity."
This time, the white light only fell on a small area around the corpse.
The corpse turned into dust visibly, and then Qu Jianlei's words came, "After the secret technique, there may be other reactions."
Huo Jiujian nodded and said, "He is a real man, but it's a pity that I don't know his name."
Daijialing is the real ancestral home of the Dai family, more than 200 kilometers away from Dantong Town.
Obviously, the people in the town found themselves powerless to fight against the demon and could only hide in the Dai family's ancestral land.
It is conceivable that the Dai family has been deeply rooted here for thousands of years, and the residents of Dantong Town are basically either relatives or friends.
At least in the early stages of the disaster, it was very likely that the Dai family would take in these people.
Qu Jianlei nodded slightly upon hearing this, "He is indeed a good man, but this kind of thing... you just have to get used to it."
He had seen too many battles with foreign races and too many heroes died, so he was not too moved.
The best way to commemorate them is to kill more foreigners.
Huo Jiu nodded when he heard this, then raised his hand and made a gesture, and then his expression changed slightly, "Oh my god, Daijialing is in trouble!"
He is also good at divination, and his level is no worse than that of the True Immortal Yongheng. However, due to factors such as backlash, he does not use it frequently.
Anyway, as the lord of a city, asking others for help in divination is just a matter of asking.
Now he felt that Daijialing was very close, so it would be no harm to make a casual calculation. But he never expected to encounter such a thing?
He even felt a little resentful towards Lord Qu Ling: He knew there would be changes, but didn't tell him in advance.
However, Qu Jianlei seemed to have heard his thoughts and spoke directly, "I didn't calculate Daijialing for fear of disturbing the other party."
In his opinion, anyone who dared to attack the disciples of the Star Hall must have the confidence.
The two fools of heaven and earth are not afraid of taking advantage of the other party, but he really does not have the confidence.
He had calculated several times before, and what he calculated were the related causes and effects of the two fools in heaven and earth, which was an indirect divination.
Anyway, they have already found this place, and it would be difficult for the other party to escape, so why should he alert them?
"I didn't count..." Huo Jiujian couldn't help but twitch his mouth, "Forget it, we're already here, let's just go."
However, not long after, the four people's faces all changed, "What the hell is this...Demon Realm?"
Daijialing covers a large area, more than 700 kilometers long and more than 200 kilometers at its widest point, with an area of more than 100,000 square kilometers.
This is just Daijialing. The total land area owned by the Dai family in the surrounding area exceeds 200,000 square kilometers.
However, the important places of the Dai family are basically all in Daijialing - the plains and hills are not strategically located, and the ancestral land is in Daijialing.
The real ancestral land is just a small hill and a group of castles covering an area of four or five hundred square kilometers.
The other tens of thousands of square kilometers of land in Daijialing are spread out around this center.
But now in their eyes, Daijialing is filled with evil spirits and no human habitation is seen.
In the more than 1,000 square kilometers in the center, the demonic energy is so thick that it seems like rolling ink.
There was no need to get closer, nor did Qu Jianlei need to define it out loud; the other three could confirm: This is the Demonic Realm!
The four of them looked at each other, and finally Huo Jiujian spoke up, "Is the Demon Realm of the Seven-Colored Swamp so big?"
"It's a little smaller than this one," Qu Jianlei replied in a deep voice, "That one is only about 300 square kilometers."
"This is fucking..." City Lord Huo was speechless, "Xiqiu City is just making a fuss!"
He was already very dissatisfied with Xiqiu's combat readiness, and he felt at the time that it had damaged the city lord's reputation.
Now he unexpectedly discovered that such a large area of the Demonic Realm had appeared, and he could no longer tolerate it.
"If this happened to my men, I'd be really, really..."
