The Legend of Qingpeng: Starting from the Costinus

Compared with the Golden Dragon Demon Lord and the Fox Demon Lord, the Black Turtle Demon Lord's situation is also full of dangers, but he still shows a glimmer of hope.

Relying on his tens of thousands of years of combat experience, he made the most correct judgment at the moment of crisis and held up the shield to buy time.

Although the seemingly indestructible shield quickly disintegrated under the corrosion of the black slime, it was these fleeting moments that gave him the opportunity to escape.

A clear and powerful stream of water burst out from the core of the shield, cutting through the mucus like a sharp sword, opening up a way for him to survive.

With the help of this water column, the Black Turtle Demon Lord nimbly passed through the hole and finally broke into the house, allowing the sun to shine again.

Standing outside the slightly desolate house, the Black Turtle Demon Lord's breathing had not yet completely calmed down, and every heartbeat was accompanied by deep worry about unknown dangers.

According to his nature, he wanted to escape immediately, but the tenacity and indomitable spirit that came from his ancient blood forced him to suppress the impulse.

Then, the Black Turtle Demon Lord's gaze inadvertently swept past his side, and the figure of the Shadow Tower Master was like a ghost in the night, quiet and powerful.

The demonic power surrounding his body is thick and deep, as if it can devour all light.

The eyes hidden beneath the ghost mask flickered with inexplicable emotions, showing both anticipation for the upcoming battle and undying fighting spirit and will to fight.

When the Black Turtle Demon Lord felt this tremendous demonic power, he inexplicably felt a sense of peace in his heart, as if he had found his backbone.

He was no longer in a hurry to escape, but quietly adjusted his position and came to Li Qing's side. The two monsters stood side by side, like two unshakable mountains.

However, out of caution for the unknown, the Black Turtle Demon Lord subtly took a half step back, maintaining a distance that would allow him to provide quick support while also being flexible in responding.

Li Qing naturally caught the tiny movements of the Black Turtle Demon Lord, but he did not show anything unusual. He just focused more on concentrating his demonic power, and the air around him was slightly distorted due to the surge of this power.

His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's as he stared at the exhausted bamboo house in front of him, calculating every next move in his mind.

Time passed minute by minute, and there was still no movement in the bamboo house. In the vision of the spiritual eyes, the three human gods and the two demon lords still maintained an eerie silence, as if time had stopped for them.

But Li Qing became more and more convinced that things were far from as simple as they seemed.

He waved his hand violently, and his black robe fluttered. A thick black mist gushed out from between the robes, quickly spreading and finally gathering into a sticky black liquid. It was the ghost slave he refined - the Heart-Eating Demon.

Through the unique perspective of the Heart Eater, Li Qing was able to peek into the real situation inside the house.

After seeing this, he was shocked.

Although the three human gods seemed normal, the situation of the two demon lords opposite was shocking.

Wisps of black air were wrapped around the surface of their bodies. These black air seemed to have life and were madly converging towards their heads, as if performing some kind of mysterious ritual or erosion.

This scene was like the breaking of dawn, sweeping away the haze in Li Qing's heart.

The doubts and complicated speculations that had just lingered in my mind became clear and definite at this moment, just like fog being penetrated by sunlight.

He stared at the three powerful gods who were once the pride of the human race but now behaved strangely. What surged in his heart was not only shock, but more of an indescribable complexity.

Li Qing had a clear mind. He concluded that these three people no longer had their true selves. The depths of their souls had been silently eroded by the Heart-Eating Demon, turning them into puppets that could be manipulated at will by the Heavenly Demon.

This parasitic technique is silent and invisible, but it can completely subvert the essence of a living being.

Although he had known about it before, after seeing it with his own eyes, Li Qing still couldn't help but feel horrified by the Heart-Eating Demon's terrifying power.

Tracing back to the root of all this, Li Qing's thoughts involuntarily drifted to the Liangjie Mountain in the spiritual world, especially the ascension platform that could communicate with the small world and help people ascend.

He speculated that it was because the Two Realms Mountain was conquered by the Heavenly Demon that it became the gateway for the Heart-Eating Demon to cross over to the realm and invade the human world.

Realizing this, an inexplicable light flashed in Li Qing's eyes.

He knew very well that with the appearance of the Heart-Eating Demon, the human world was about to face an unprecedented catastrophe.

This battle not only concerns the survival of the human race, but also involves the balance and order of the entire cultivation world.

Li Qing began to quickly think of a countermeasure. He knew that it was difficult to reverse the situation by his own strength. He had to find a way to either protect himself or to encircle and destroy all the demons in the human world...

At the same time, the human world may already be filled with the devil's spies and minions. Those seemingly peaceful corners are actually undercurrents and full of dangers.

After all, if the Heart-Eating Demon appeared here, then every part of the human world might have been infiltrated by the Heavenly Demon.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to be so impatient to expose himself in front of them as soon as three Heart-Eating Demons came down.

Especially the Yanjian Sect, as a giant in the world of cultivation, its ancestor Mu Sixue has been controlled by the Heart-Eating Demon. So the Yanjian Sect must have collapsed and became one of the strongholds of the Heavenly Demon in the human world.

Li Qing speculated that the Heavenly Demons might have already sent even more powerful Heavenly Demon troops through the Yanjian Sect's ascension platform.

And their target is not only the human world, but also the neighboring demon world, attempting to destroy the defenses of the two realms in one fell swoop and realize their ulterior ambitions.

At this moment, as various speculations emerged in his mind, Li Qing's heart was filled with an indescribable shock.

He couldn't help but feel deeply wary of the demon's foresight and unparalleled strength from the bottom of his heart.

The ascension platform in the spiritual world, a holy place that symbolizes hope and rebirth, is of self-evident importance.

The ascension platform is not only the key for the spiritual world to obtain fresh blood and strengthen its strength, but also an important link to maintain the connection between the spiritual world and the myriad small worlds.

Faced with the unprecedented catastrophe of the Heavenly Demon Tribulation, the importance of Liangjie Mountain, as the border defense line of the human race with an ascension platform, has been elevated to an unprecedented level.

All forces will certainly do their utmost to defend this holy land to the death to prevent it from falling into the hands of the enemy and causing immeasurable consequences.

Otherwise, if the ascension platform of Liangjie Mountain was destroyed, it would be troublesome.

After all, this ascension platform is the passage connecting the spiritual world and the lower world. If it is destroyed, it will become extremely difficult for those cultivators who have cultivated to the spirit transformation realm in the lower world to ascend to the spiritual world.

They will also lose fresh blood, and may even affect the future of the entire human race.

Although, the ascension platform can be rebuilt even if it is destroyed, the ascension platform in the spiritual world is different from that in the lower world. The ascension platform in the spiritual world is connected to thousands of small worlds, which is not comparable to the ascension platform in the small world.

If this ascension platform is destroyed, it will be very difficult to rebuild it, and it will require huge manpower, material and financial resources.

However, even such a mountain that would affect the entire human race could not completely stop the cunning and powerful steps of the demon no matter how tightly it was defended.
