On the scarlet demon plain, a blue shocking sword struck the thick demon tree like splitting the sky.
clang!
The harsh sound of gold and iron clashing broke through the clouds and resounded in all directions.
However, Xiang Hai, the Grand Marshal of the Demon-Suppressing Legion, did not cause much damage to the Demonic Tree, but only left a shallow white knife mark on the trunk of the Demonic Tree.
The texture of this demon tree is so hard that under normal circumstances, Xiang Hai's sacrificial knife would be enough to cut through mountains and cut off rivers.
Yan Cheng had accumulated enough real energy. With tears in his eyes and a look of reluctance, he didn't dare to look back and just ran forward with all his strength.
From time to time, Marshal Xiang Hai's miserable cry came from behind Yan Cheng.
Xiang Hai's pitiful screams and the screams of the other brothers of the Demon-Suppressing Legion made Yan Cheng feel condemned in his heart, but he did not dare to hesitate and rushed towards the outside world at the fastest speed in his life.
Yan Cheng had already raised his speed to the fastest, but he was horrified to find that the Demon Plain had expanded again, more than doubling its original size.
When they entered the Demon Plain, it only took them half an hour to reach the center of the plain. Now, after he had been running for a long time, he could faintly see the sunlight and plants outside.
Accelerating and hitting the plain filled with blood mist, Yan Cheng endured his grief and rushed back towards Luoyang.
This time, General Xiang Hai of the Demon-Suppressing Army led his team to investigate the situation of the demons. Among the hundreds of people who did not want to come, only Yan Cheng managed to survive. And Yan Cheng was able to survive because the Generalissimo sacrificed his life to hold him back. Yao Lie.
Thinking of Yao Lie, Yan Cheng clenched his teeth and his eyes were bloodshot.
Half a year ago, Yan Cheng also fought against Yao Lie. Although Yao Lie was strong at that time, it did not make Yan Cheng despair and had no room to fight back. But now that Yao Lie has become a demon, his strength has increased so much that standing on the demon plain, he can only feel the boundless despair.
Yao Lie is definitely not something that ordinary martial arts masters can suppress!
If there is anyone in the world who can suppress Yao Lie, Yan Cheng can only think of three people, one is the Human Emperor who is a martial artist, the Dragon King of Hidden Dragon Mountain, and the other is Li Zhige who has profound magical power and unpredictable supernatural powers. .
Thinking of the terrifying growth rate of the demon tree after devouring flesh and blood, Yan Cheng was worried that even the Human Emperor and Dragon King would not be able to suppress Yao Lie after a while.
Now, Yan Cheng is racing against time. He must pass the news to the emperor before Yao Lie swallows enough flesh and blood, so that the emperor can personally kill Yao Lie, the giant monster. Otherwise, all life will be ruined and the common people will not be far away.
On the demon plain, the crown of a demon tree holds up the sky, and its roots penetrate into the center of the earth.
Under the demon tree, Yao Lie greedily licked his black lips, smacking his lips, and said with some regret, "As expected of a martial arts master, Xiang Hai alone is comparable to thousands of ordinary people. It’s a pity that Yan Cheng ran away. Otherwise, I could have improved a lot.”
He reached out and clenched his fist, and mysterious patterns appeared on Yao Lie's handsome face. Feeling the surging power in his body, Yao Lie Jiejie smiled strangely.
This feeling is really great!
He knew that he already had unparalleled power that could break the sky with one punch and shatter the earth with one kick. This kind of power made him so intoxicated!
Turning around and looking at the thriving demon tree, Yao Lie stretched out his hand to touch the trunk, and a sense of intimacy that came from the depths of his blood arose spontaneously. He, Yao Lie, has become one with the demon tree, living and dying together.
The nourishment for the growth of the demon tree is the flesh and blood essence of living beings. As long as there is enough flesh and blood essence, the demon tree can grow indefinitely.
Yao Lie's eyes were deep, and he controlled the roots of the demon tree to expand in all directions to the west.
Dense roots emerge from the ground. Whenever they see a living being, they will pounce on them and suck out their flesh, blood, and essence.
The tree canopy spreads in the sky at a speed visible to the naked eye. In areas covered by the tree canopy, mountains will collapse and disintegrate, rivers will dry up and transpire, and then assimilate into part of the Scarlet Demon Plain.
If someone stands in the sky, they will find a red spot on the ground that is gradually expanding and spreading, eroding in all directions to the west.
A village, a town, a county, a county, the demon plain is expanding faster and faster. Before people can react, the earth has been covered by scarlet blood erosion.
Luoyang, Imperial Palace.
In the Jinluan Palace, all the civil and military officials looked at Yan Cheng, who was panting and in a miserable state, with worried expressions on their faces.
The Human Emperor Li Hao was sitting on a chair. His body was already a little rickety, his hair was silvery white and dull, and his skin was dry and wrinkled, as if he was about to die.
Looking at Yan Cheng who was kneeling in the hall in a miserable state, Li Hao's eyes flashed and he said, "If I had known this, I shouldn't have left Bai Long as a scourge!"
"The Demon King has been resurrected, and the earth will usher in another catastrophe. The poor people of our race will be in trouble again."
Prince Li Bin frowned and said with doubts on his face, "Father, the Demon Emperor was jointly suppressed and killed by the First Generation Ancestor and Cang Long in ancient times. Although Bai Long degenerated into a demon, it was not considered the Demon Emperor was resurrected, right? "
Li Hao did not answer Li Bin. His eyes were worried and flickering.
In the Jinluan Palace, a trembling, aging historian with white hair on his head said in a weak voice, "According to the ancient records of the human race, before Hongmeng was opened, a tree was born in the center of chaos."
"Chaos evolved, the world was born, and that tree became the center of the world. The first creatures who opened their wisdom under that tree claimed to be the demon clan, and the demon clan regarded that tree as the demon emperor."
"The ancestors of the human race regarded that tree as a tree of disaster and called it the demon tree."
"Later, the human race rose up to resist and formed allies with the dragon clan to fight against the demon clan. The first generation of human ancestors and Canglong teamed up to suppress the demon emperor and destroy the demon tree itself. Unexpectedly, endless years have passed, and the demon tree has started to grow again."
"The tree of disaster is growing, and people are about to suffer!"
The old historian's tone was vicissitudes of life, his voice was hoarse and he sighed heavily, making the atmosphere in the Jinluan Palace become heavy and depressing.
All the civil and military officials of the dynasty were aware of the seriousness of the problem. They all looked sad and thought about ways to solve the problem.
Li Bin opened his mouth and turned to look at the majestic-looking Human Emperor Li Hao in a high position.
Under the gaze of everyone, Human Emperor Li Hao stood up slowly. His tall figure was slightly stooped, but his appearance was still majestic and his eyes were still determined.
Looking at the ministers in the palace, Li Hao said in a deep voice, "We cannot let the demon tree grow unchecked. Every quarter of an hour of delay, tens of thousands of people will be killed and become the blood of the demon tree."
"Please use the holy sword to kill the demon tree!"
Li Hao's voice was sonorous. As soon as he finished speaking, a big brass sword enshrined in the palace made a sword sound, flew out automatically, and fell into the hands of the Human Emperor Li Hao.
This sword is made of brass.
On both sides of the sword, one side is engraved with the sun, moon and stars, and the other side is engraved with mountains, rivers and vegetation.
There are two sides of the sword hilt, one side is written about the art of farming and animal husbandry, and the other side is written about the strategy of unifying the Western Sea.
Holding the holy sword passed down by Holy Emperor Xuanyuan, Li Hao glanced at the ministers with firm eyes, fixed his eyes on Li Bin, and said in a gentle voice, "Your Majesty, if I leave and never come back, you will succeed to the throne of the Human Emperor. You must shoulder the responsibility of the country and the country.”
Looking at the ministers, Li Hao said in a deep voice, "Dear dear friends, I leave this country to you. You must assist Li Bin and stabilize the people of Li."
After speaking, Li Hao didn't hesitate. He held the holy sword, stepped on the void, and walked out of the Jinluan Palace step by step.
In the Jinluan Palace, the officials immediately chased the Human Emperor out of the hall.
Looking at the tall, straight and slightly rickety figure, Yan Cheng's eyes heated up and he subconsciously shouted loudly, "Your Majesty, I will go with you!"
The other generals also reacted and chased after the Human Emperor's back, shouting loudly, "Your Majesty, let me and others accompany you."
Li Hao stepped on the void, his body did not stagnate, and he stepped into the distance step by step. He said in a heavy voice, "The Demonic Tree has become a climate. It is not a good thing for more people to go. I just provide him with nourishment. I One person is enough!”
"Yan Cheng, don't waste time, go find Li Zhige immediately and ask Li Zhige to take charge of Luoyang."
"If I don't come back, Li Zhige will be the last pillar holding up the sky of my human race!"
