The Way of the Heavens

"Zhenwu Emperor Sword!"

Seeing the red-gold sword quietly floating in front of Chen Wu, the faces of those warriors who were very familiar with the Zhenwu Holy Land suddenly changed, and their eyes were full of fear.

The Zhenwu Emperor Sword is the treasure of the Zhenwu Holy Land that has been circulating for tens of thousands of years. It is a fifth-grade top-grade spiritual weapon. It is said that it is the weapon of the founder of the Zhenwu Holy Land.

It is also said that it is the weapon of an unparalleled strong man in ancient times or even in ancient times. The founder of the Zhenwu Holy Land got this sword by chance, and then suppressed the enemies and established the Zhenwu Holy Land!

No matter which legend it is, the reputation of the Zhenwu Emperor Sword makes countless strong men fear it. For tens of thousands of years, countless Xuandan realm strong men have been killed by it.

Those who can use this sword in the Zhenwu Holy Land and survive are all peerless strong men in the eight regions of the entire continent, enough to be famous for eternity, such as the first demon king!

The Zhenwu Emperor Sword trembled slightly, and the powerful force contained in the sword shook the void. It seemed to sense that a shocking battle was about to await it.

The other four holy lands' masters and demon kings looked at each other, and knew that they could not delay any longer, so they took out the treasures they brought with them!

The Demon King's Bone, the Shura Blood Knife, the Star God Bow, and the Haoran Holy Sword!

Some exuded infinite demonic energy, some were filled with terrifying killing intent that shocked the mind, some were like the starry aura of the bright sun, and some were full of righteousness.

These four items were all fifth-grade top-grade spiritual weapons that were not inferior to the Zhenwu Emperor Sword. They were treasures left behind by the founders of the four holy lands after their death, and they were one of the guarantees that the four holy lands would not decline for tens of thousands of years!

Seeing the masters of various forces either take out the treasures of the sect or the religion, or display the powerful martial arts at the bottom of the box, Chen Wu's eyes flashed and he shouted angrily:

"Everyone, take action!"

This time, led by five fifth-grade spiritual weapons, a series of terrifying attacks bombarded the Demon City.

The true essence surged over the entire Demon City, the energy was surging, the void was trembling, and the powerful attack roared in all directions. The power of this time was only comparable to the power of the previous two attacks combined!

Boom boom boom!

Without any surprise, the defense formation that enveloped the Demon City and had never been broken for tens of thousands of years was completely shattered by this combined attack. Countless pieces of true essence fragments of various sizes fell from the sky, but before they fell to the ground, they turned into the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and disappeared without a trace.

Puff!

At the moment when the defense formation was broken, the consciousness of the more than 20 Xuandan-level elders of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land that controlled the defense continent was severely damaged. A huge wave of consciousness rose in their sea of ​​consciousness, and they felt a splitting headache.

At the same time, they spit out a mouthful of blood, and their breath instantly became weak.

As for the hundreds of thousands of disciples sitting cross-legged on the magic platform in the Heavenly Demon City to supply their own energy, they were even more unbearable. Under the backlash of the broken formation, many disciples who were already pale and bloodless suddenly became seriously injured and fell to the ground unconscious.

"Let's go!"

Seeing that the defense formation of the Heavenly Demon City was completely broken, Chen Wu sent a voice message to the consciousness of several elders of the True Martial Holy Land, and immediately used all his strength to display high-level body skills and flew directly to the interior of the Heavenly Demon City.

Seeing this, the other powerful people from various major forces, as well as the independent cultivators and old monsters, their faces were full of expectation and excitement, and they followed Chen Wu and others to the interior of the Heavenly Demon City.

"No, they are going to the place where the Demon Lord is in seclusion!"

The faces of the elders of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land who swallowed the elixir to recover from their injuries changed. Regardless of whether their own injuries were healed or not, they hurriedly got up and chased Chen Wu and others, trying to stop them.

It's not that they are loyal to the Demon Lord, but because their lives are controlled by the Demon Lord. Once the Demon Lord falls, they will not live long.

After all, as a magic warrior, ruthlessness, cold-bloodedness, and cunningness are the most basic abilities. It is simply a fantasy to want these old demons who have lived for hundreds of years to be loyal to someone.

So the Demon Lord wanted to prevent these people from secretly attacking him when he was in seclusion to refine the Immortal God Tree, and to prevent outsiders from disturbing him.

So he used forbidden methods to control the life and death of these people, so that they were willing to protect him.

...

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

Chen Wu took the lead and crossed half of the Heavenly Demon City to the center of the Heavenly Demon City.

Unlike other ordinary cities, this place is not a city lord's mansion or a palace, but a huge bottomless magic pit!

The magic pit is filled with magic energy that is several times or even dozens of times denser than outside. On the surrounding rock walls, you can see magic holes swallowing and spitting magic energy, providing a constant supply of magic energy for the magic pit.

Chen Wu stood above the magic pit and hesitated for a moment, then resolutely took the Zhenwu Emperor Sword and swooped down to the bottomless magic pit, looking for the retreating demon king, and the people behind him did not hesitate and also swept down.

There were continuous explosions in the magic pit, echoing in the void, but it was Chen Wu and others who continued to use powerful attacks to destroy the forbidden formations one by one.

In the time of an incense stick, a demon shadow full of self-centered temperament rushed out of the bottomless magic pit, holding a thriving immortal tree in one hand and a domineering demon halberd in the other. He was the demon king of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land!

The Demon Lord's face was extremely ferocious at this time, and the terrifying demonic aura on his body was changing wildly, as if he wanted to destroy everything.

He looked at Chen Wu and others who flew out of the magic pit, and roared in a low voice: "Just a little bit, just a little bit...ah!"

This could not help but make the Demon Lord angry. After half a month of continuous refining, the vitality and energy of the nine layers of the Immortal God Tree were integrated into his body. It was just the last little bit that could not be refined by him. Otherwise, the Demon Lord would have achieved immortality long ago.

But just now, Chen Wu and others suddenly broke into the Demon Lord's retreat and interrupted his refining, causing all his previous efforts to go to waste.

Not only was the last bit not refined, but even the vitality and energy of the Immortal Tree that he had previously integrated into his body almost all returned and turned into the Immortal Tree again. How could he not be furious!

The Demon Lord raised his head and looked at Chen Wu and others. His blood-red demon pupils looked extremely evil. He roared ferociously: "I will make you die without a burial place!"

The battle in the Demon City started again!

………………

In the battle of the Demon City, although the Demon Lord did not achieve immortality, he also broke through the first level with some of the energy left by the Immortal Tree and reached the seventh level of Xuandan - Dantai.

But facing the siege of hundreds of strong men, the Demon Lord could only escape with serious injuries, but he also took away part of the Immortal Tree that was split into four parts in the battle.

As for the remaining three pieces of the Immortal Tree, they were taken away by the three earliest established and more profound holy places, Zhenwu Holy Land, Wan Yao Holy Land, and Xingshen Holy Land.

Although refining one piece of the Immortal Tree can enhance strength and extend one's lifespan by hundreds or thousands of years, it cannot achieve immortality.

Therefore, the four holy places all launched a war to seize the other three pieces of the Immortal Tree and refine the complete tree!

The other two holy places and many top forces were unwilling to lose the opportunity of immortality, and also joined the war for the Immortal Tree.

Since then, the Zhenwu Continent has fallen into endless wars!
