The Legend of Qingpeng: Starting from the Costinus

Liangjie Mountain is an important territory of the human race in the spiritual world. It is not only an important stronghold for the human race to resist foreign enemies, but also located at the border between the human race and the demon race.

Of course, there is a buffer zone between the Liangjie Mountain and the demon clan’s territory.

All kinds of wild beasts and alien races live in that area. Some of them are ferocious and brutal, while others are extremely intelligent. Together, they form the unique ecosystem of this land.

The ascension passage between the lower world and the spiritual world is connected through the ascension platform in the mountains between the two worlds.

Every cultivator who ascends from the lower realm will eventually appear on the ascension platform on the Two Realms Mountain.

Once the monks from the lower world successfully ascend, they will be required to become demon-suppressing envoys and guard the border for the human race for a period of up to five hundred years in exchange for their freedom.

However, the fall of Liangjie Mountain has undoubtedly brought unprecedented impact to the small thousand worlds below.

The invasion of the Heavenly Demon not only turned this former human fortress into the Heavenly Demon's territory, but also made the road to ascension become one with no chance of survival.

This was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the human gods in the human world.

Because they know very well that once they ascend to the spiritual world, they will face the threat of the devil directly, and their hope of survival will become extremely slim.

Faced with such a situation, Li Qing was not worried.

Since the demon clan was able to get this news, it was obvious that in the spiritual world, the demon clan's ascension platform was not breached by the demons like the two-world mountain of the human clan.

At this moment, he still has a chance to go to the spirit world from the demon clan's ascension platform in the future.

However, just as Li Qing digested the heavy and complex information from the Black Turtle Demon Lord and slowly recovered from the shock, he found that the atmosphere in the entire space had strangely fallen into silence.

This silence seemed to contain a storm that was about to erupt, which made people feel nervous.

He slowly turned his head and glanced at the three human cultivators who were present. An inexplicable chill surged in his heart.

Their faces were not distorted by excitement or anger. Instead, they showed an unusual calmness, an extraordinary calmness, as if they had anticipated everything, including the demonic calamity that befell Liangjie Mountain.

Li Qing's gaze continued to wander in the human camp. In addition to Mu Sixue, who was always calm and composed and did not show any change at this moment, he also noticed the existence of two other powerful gods.

One of them was Zhou Yu, whom he had known for a long time. Her expression was exactly the same as Mu Sixue's, both of them were expressionless and unusually calm.

The other one was the new patriarch of the Ancient Demon Sect—Gu Chi. He had a stern face and a faint demonic aura surrounding him. He didn't seem to be surprised at the news told by the Black Turtle Demon Lord.

Suddenly, Mu Sixue's expression finally changed.

The corners of his mouth curled up in a sneer, like an ice flower suddenly blooming in the cold wind, instantly breaking the tranquility around him.

There was both sarcasm and morbidity in that smile, as if it was announcing something to everyone.

There were no ordinary people present. At this moment, both the three demon lords and Li Qing keenly captured this subtle change, and an ominous premonition arose spontaneously.

Just as Li Qing and the three demon lords were preparing to take action and try to attack Mu Sixue in order to uncover the mystery of this sudden change, the accident had already happened.

Mu Sixue and the other two human gods opened their mouths almost at the same time, and an unprecedented black mucus gushed out like a torrent, instantly filling the entire room. A suffocating stench and dangerous atmosphere filled the air.

Li Qing's reaction was extremely fast. Almost at the same time as the mucus spurted out, his figure flashed away like a ghost.

Relying on his unparalleled escape skills and keen spiritual perception, he rushed out of the bamboo house and soared into the sky just before the slime touched him.

With a deafening roar, the roof of the bamboo house was easily torn apart by the powerful force, with wood chips flying and smoke and dust rising.

When he reappeared, Li Qing was already standing firmly on the bamboo house, looking down with a serious expression.

He was glad that he had escaped this disaster, but his worries did not diminish in the slightest.

On the other hand, the situation inside the house was far from good.

The Black Turtle Demon Lord, a living fossil-like existence of the demon race, relied on his profound cultivation and rich experience to promptly put up a demon power shield.

But the shield was covered with mucus, and it was impossible to see what was going on inside, and it was unknown whether he was alive or dead.

The other two demon lords were caught off guard by this sudden attack. Their bodies were covered with mucus and they looked extremely embarrassed.

All of this happened so fast that it was almost impossible to react. It was as if time was ruthlessly compressed at this moment, leaving only chaos and astonishment in the room...

In the dim and depressing room, the air seemed to be frozen, and every movement seemed exceptionally clear.

The figures of Fox Demon Lord and Golden Dragon Demon Lord were still stiffly embedded in the chairs. Their eyes revealed not only deep fear, but also unspeakable panic.

The extremely strange black slime slowly clung to every inch of their skin as if it had life, gradually seeping into their bone marrow, bringing an unprecedented sense of numbness, making the two demon lords who once dominated the world feel unprecedented powerlessness and fragility.

Complex emotions surged in the heart of Fox Demon Lord, including fear of unknown forces and doubts about his own strength.

She tried to recall the ancient secrets and use them to fight against the unknown erosion, but she found that her mind was shrouded in thick clouds and it was difficult to concentrate.

The Golden Dragon Demon Lord was even more anxious. The tremendous demonic power in his body was like a dried-up river at this moment. Not even a trace of ripples could be stirred up, which made him feel deeply desperate.

Every time he took a deep breath, trying to awaken the dormant demonic power and resist this invisible threat, he could only feel a stronger sense of emptiness and frustration.

Looking at the three human gods in front of them, the two demons also had something in mind.

An inexplicable chill surged in the hearts of Fox Demon Lord and Golden Dragon Demon Lord, and they wanted to ask for help or share information.

But the cruel reality tells them that now they can hardly make even the most basic sounds and can only move their lips weakly and make whimpers so weak that they are almost inaudible.
