I became an immortal in the mountains

Chapter 670 War begins!
Gu Yuanqing nodded slightly, then cupped his hands in a gesture of respect before leaping into the air and flying out of the forbidden area.

Before long, Gu Yuanqing arrived at his designated defensive position.

Each cultivator designated a general defensive area, which were also the weak points of the Eight Desolations Demon Suppression Formation.

After Gu Yuanqing flew out of the forbidden area of ​​Wuliang Mountain, many eyes fell on him.

"Is that Gu Yuanqing?" A Taigu Divine Sect Yin-Yang cultivator standing on a platform in the distance exchanged words with his companion.

"It's him."

"To achieve the Heavenly Chaos at over three hundred years old, what a fortunate life."

"Yes, they are indeed very lucky to have obtained the power of the Primordial Furnace in a floating world. The power of the Primordial Furnace exists in every floating world and exquisite world, but it is hidden in the world itself and cannot be sensed at all. Yet, others have this opportunity."

The two men were filled with envy and jealousy during their conversation, thinking that even after thousands of years of arduous cultivation, they had only reached the Yin-Yang Void Breaking or Yin-Yang Circulation Realm.

In truth, he could be considered a notable figure in the Linglong Realm and the Divine Ruins, and he was far better off than those who were unlucky and whose minds were devoured by the Zhenyuan Mingzhi.

However, people are afraid of comparison. When they compare themselves to Gu Yuanqing, they realize how much they are lacking.

Ignoring these gazes from the Yin-Yang level, Gu Yuanqing followed his mental intuition and looked at the two of them.

The person in question, located within the forbidden area of ​​the Divine Forbidden Mountain Range, was undoubtedly Mu Tianheng.

Another person was also inside the forbidden area, which was shrouded in lightning and exuded an aura similar to a heavenly tribulation, capable of destroying all things.

However, this forbidden area was far away from Gu Yuanqing, and with the forbidden area's power enveloping it, it was difficult to see clearly; their eyes merely met from afar.

"This person should be Lei Fuyue!"

Gu Yuanqing glanced at it twice and then looked away.

He also had a faint feeling of being watched, but he immediately guessed that the power came from the Mirror of Heaven.

Gu Yuanqing looked in the direction of the boundary gate.

"This is... Li Lingyun!"

This time, Li Lingyun did not participate in the front-line battle, but stayed around the boundary gate. The great array formed by these thirty-six small worlds was ultimately controlled by him.

Li Lingyun and Gu Yuanqing's eyes met, and they seemed to smile at each other, as if there was a vague sense of familiarity between them.

"is it him?"

To be honest, Gu Yuanqing wasn't entirely sure; he was just guessing that there might be some old monsters within the Ancient Divine Sect.

Li Lingyun is a Discipline Elder in the Ancient Divine Sect, and has always been responsible for guarding the boundary gate and manipulating the thirty-six minor worlds.

If he truly harbored such intentions, would Mu Tianheng really have been completely unaware and allowed him to continue in this role without question?
Gu Yuanqing smiled calmly. He knew that no matter whether the demons could break through the defenses of the Ancient God Sect, this place would probably not be peaceful.

The hidden hand that operates in the shadows is none other than the Gate of This Realm. Whoever it is, they will surely do something.

Gu Yuanqing withdrew his gaze, closed his eyes, seemingly adjusting his state, but in reality, he was silently sensing the presence of the true self.

He did not want the demons to invade the Linglong Realm, so he would definitely go all out this time. However, if it really concerned his own safety, he would not hesitate to return to Beiquan Mountain, and would never let guarding this place affect his own life!
With a thought, ripples spread through the space around Gu Yuanqing, his aura completely merging with the surrounding Great Dao, and his body seemed to be hidden in the void.

The group of Chaos Cultivators who witnessed this scene all showed slight changes in their expressions.

The saying goes, "A master's skill is revealed the moment they make a move," and even just a small detail can reveal their talent.

Even Ning Xuxuan couldn't help but turn his head to take a look. He controlled the power of the rule artifact, the Measuring Ruler, and his understanding of the Dao of Space was far superior to that of other cultivators.

That's why you can appreciate its charm even more.

However, in an instant, everyone's gaze fell upon the demons in front of them.

The approaching demon army was vast and seemingly endless. Even if the vast majority of them were just demonic beasts, the sheer number was still exaggerated.

This reminded Gu Yuanqing of the Demon Realm of the Underground Cave, where the demonic beasts seemed to be just as numerous and countless.

Several Chaos Demons, who had been lurking around the human territory, revealed themselves in the surrounding area. They had ferocious expressions, varied appearances, and occasionally let out strange and grating laughs.

They stood very close, almost at the edge of the forbidden area's protection, seemingly without any fear, their eyes and smiles full of provocation.

Neither the Ancient Divine Sect nor the Hidden Radiance Alliance paid any attention to them, because they knew that when they went out, these demons would turn around and leave without caring about their reputation.

Right now, these demons are no longer important; what matters is the ever-approaching demon army.

If we lose our composure because of the provocations we face, it will be a losing proposition.

Perhaps seeing that their provocations were futile, these few chaotic demons stopped provoking and retreated far away.

Because the demon army was less than 100,000 miles away from the human defense line.

Mu Tianheng's thousand-foot-tall divine soul appeared on the Divine Forbidden Mountain, with the phantom of the Heavenly Law Bell above his head and countless runes swirling around his divine soul, exuding unparalleled majesty.

His expression was solemn as he spoke in a low voice: "Fellow Daoists, the boundary gate behind us is the last line of defense for the Linglong Realm. In this battle against the Demon Race, we have no way out. If we fall, the Linglong Realm will never have peace again, and may even become a pasture for the Demon Race, with the humans of the Linglong Realms becoming food for them, and our descendants having no chance to rise again. Therefore, this battle is a must-win!"

At the same time, I, Mu Tianheng, would like to make this clear from the outset: this matter concerns the safety of the Linglong Realm. Anyone who dares to do anything that harms the interests of the human race will be punished by any means necessary!

Immediately, someone shouted in agreement: "For the sake of humanity, for the sake of the Linglong Realm, we will follow the sect leader to slay the demons to the death, even if it means our own demise, we will not retreat a single step!"

"kill!……"

The disciples of the Ancient Divine Sect, as well as the cultivators summoned from the Ancient Realm and the Linglong Realm, all shouted loudly, as if they had been inspired, their blood boiling, and their bodies brimming with battle aura.

The Hidden Radiance Alliance remained quiet.

It must be said that, in terms of boosting morale, the Ancient Divine Sect did a good job.

Mu Tianheng seemed to smile slightly at the determination of the crowd, and shouted, "Everyone, follow me to the battle!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the power of the Heavenly Law Bell erupted, causing the entire Divine Forbidden Mountain Range to shine brightly, and the other eight forbidden areas followed suit.

One by one, phantom images of divine artifacts appeared, their powers intertwining to form layers upon layers of defense.

The power of the forbidden land is originally contained within the forbidden land, where it is almost invincible. The Eight Desolations Demon Suppression Formation uses a Dao artifact that shares the same origin as the power of the rule artifact to draw out the almost infinite power of the forbidden land, thus using it as its energy source and foundation to transform into the great formation.

The demon army drew closer, and Gu Yuanqing could now clearly see their appearance. At the forefront of the demon army, Guiji Forbidden Land roared in with incredible speed, leaving a long trail of flames behind it.

According to the established policy, the nine forbidden areas began to circulate, maintaining the Eight Desolations Demon Suppression Array while bringing the Divine Forbidden Area and the Silent Forbidden Area as close as possible.

In other words, Mu Tianheng must confront the Demon Lord, who is suspected to be a demigod, head-on!
At the same time, it also concentrated most of the power of the Eight Desolations Demon Suppression Formation to resolve the impact of the Forbidden Land of Silence.

In the blink of an eye, the two forces have begun to intersect.

Without any further words, they immediately took action.

The Demon Lord, riding the Forbidden Land of Silence, charged straight in without stopping, like a giant meteor crashing into the Eight Desolations Demon-Suppressing Array.

Boom!

The entire Eight Desolations Demon Suppression Formation trembled, and runes shone brightly, some of which were even damaged or broken.

The power of a forbidden land is immense. The Demon Lord directly traversed hundreds of millions of miles of the Guiyin Forbidden Land without slowing down at all, all for this one strike!
If viewed from a distance, one can see that a wondrous realm seems to have appeared within the Divine Ruins.

The Eight Desolate Demon-Suppressing Array, formed from the nine forbidden lands, forms a sphere that covers an area with a diameter of tens of millions of miles around the boundary gate.

The protective magic array barrier shimmered with light, and like a net, it was knocked backward by the impact of the Forbidden Land of Nirvana.

The Forbidden Land of Guiji is less than a few dozen miles away from directly colliding with the Forbidden Mountain Range.

The two sides reached a stalemate. The Eight Desolations Demon Suppression Formation was unable to expel the Guiji Forbidden Land from the formation, but the Guiji Forbidden Land was also blocked by the power of the nine forbidden lands and could not advance further.

However, due to the conflict between the two, the protective barrier of the Eight Desolations Demon Suppression Formation was immediately stretched, revealing weak points in its strength.

Immediately, a Chaos Demon flew out, manipulating its demonic weapon to attack the weak point.

At the same time, after the Forbidden Land of Silence, demons also spread out in all directions, riding magical beasts to find weak points to attack. While doing so, they also restrained the power of the Eight Desolations Demon Suppression Array, preventing it from gathering all its power to deal with the attacks from the front.

Among these demons are many powerful figures, including even clones of the immortal demon Huntian. They wield demonic weapons and are not to be underestimated.

Of course, the real pressure is indeed on the positive side.

The Demon Lord on the other side did not make a move. In the distance, one could vaguely see a throne standing amidst the endless black demonic energy within the Forbidden Land of Silence. The Demon Lord sat lazily on the throne, and behind his body, there seemed to be mountains of corpses and seas of blood rising and falling.

Above its head, a dark blue coffin seemed to be faintly visible, its surface seemingly engraved with countless twisted, evil, and destructive runes, as if it could devour everything.

This is the Coffin of Nirvana, a manifestation of the Great Dao of Death, Annihilation, and End.

The coffin lid was tightly closed, and wisps of gray-black deathly energy seeped out from the gaps, exuding a terrifying aura that caused all things to wither.

This aura seemed to emanate from the forbidden area, coming into contact with the Eight Desolations Demon Suppression Array, thereby continuously devouring and dissolving the array's power.

It is this very power that allows the Forbidden Land of Guiji to withstand the power of the Eight Desolations Demon Suppression Array, remaining fixed in the void and preventing it from being expelled.

A fierce battle immediately broke out around the Forbidden Mountain Range.

In the blink of an eye, countless demonic beasts were slain, blood filled the sky, and malevolent energy gathered.

But immediately, even more monsters swarmed in.

Battles at the Chaotic Heaven level also unfolded around the Divine Forbidden Mountain Range. The Forbidden Land of Return to Silence had drawn away too much power, causing the Eight Desolate Demon Suppression Formation to naturally reveal empty spaces.

The Demon Clan's Hun Tian Da Xiu naturally wouldn't miss the opportunity to have the Demon Lord personally intervene and restrain them.

Mu Tianheng snorted coldly. As soon as the Heavenly Law Bell rang, all the demons within a radius of ten thousand miles were affected. The cultivators of the Ancient Divine Sect naturally took the opportunity to attack, successively killing many demons and demonic beasts.

With a flick of his finger, Mu Tianheng used the power of the Heavenly Law Bell to severely injure a Chaotic Undying Demon.

It is obvious that in terms of strength, Mu Tianheng is the pinnacle of the Chaotic Undying cultivators in the Divine Ruins. When he uses the power of divine artifacts, there are few in the Demon Clan who can contend with him.

The Demon Lord Ming Shang laughed loudly and stood up: "Mu Tianheng, your opponent is me. I have long wanted to fight you, but... I wonder how many of my moves you can withstand?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ming Shang raised his hand and waved it. The phantom image of the Xuan Coffin above his head flew out and crashed directly into the shadow of the Heavenly Law Bell.

At the same time, Ming Shang secretly formed a hand seal, and the demonic eye between his brows opened, reflecting Mu Tianheng's figure. The Silent Coffin appeared, and the coffin lid opened wide, taking in the reflected figure of Mu Tianheng.

Mu Tianheng, on the other side, felt a jolt in his heart and knew he had been hit by a spell. He sneered, and the Heavenly Law Bell suddenly rang out, its sound resounding in the heart of the Demon Lord Ming Shang at the same time.

Almost simultaneously, Mu Tianheng felt an inexplicable death aura engulf his life force.

The Demon Lord, on the other hand, felt his life force being inexplicably erased, and his physical body and soul being directly annihilated by some kind of power.

The next second, their bodies disintegrated almost simultaneously.

But the next moment, the two reappeared at the same time, both looking perfectly intact.

The Demon Lord chuckled: "Interesting. The power of the Heavenly Law Bell is indeed difficult to defend against. I am even more interested in this battle!"

……

Leaving aside the main battlefield for now, since both sides have been preparing for a long time and know each other quite well, it will be difficult to determine a winner in the short term.

However, no one dared to be careless, as a single oversight could lead to total defeat.

Gu Yuanqing's location rotates with Wuliang Mountain, and he doesn't want to stay with the people of the Ancient Divine Sect.

The forbidden area of ​​Wuliang Mountain is to the left of the boundary gate. There, too, swarms of demonic beasts are constantly attacking the defense line, and there are also powerful demons mixed in among them.

However, this is only a diversionary tactic. Even though most of the power of the Wuliang Mountain Forbidden Land has been used in the direct confrontation with the demons, it is still enough to maintain the defense in this direction.

The attacking demons dared not venture too far, otherwise they would be struck on the head by the suddenly appearing Measuring Ruler and instantly shattered into pieces.

As for Gu Yuanqing, who was further back, he had more free time. He stood in the void with his arms crossed, watching the battle between Mu Tianheng and the Demon Lord with great interest.

Even though the view was obstructed, you could still see quite a lot.

"At this moment, Mu Tianheng is probably not acting in his true form. And the Demon Lord has not yet revealed his true power; they are merely testing each other!"

Suddenly, Gu Yuanqing raised his hand and pointed his finger, instantly killing a demon avatar at the Shattered Heaven level who was hiding in the void and attempting to sneak across.

"I did agree to guard this area, after all. If I let you sneak over there like this, wouldn't it make me look too incompetent?"
