"This is the Hellfire Nightmare Beast. Lord Demon once entered the restricted area to tame this beast and brought a group of them out, then kept them in captivity in the mountains behind the Ming Palace. This beast has a violent temperament, immense strength, and is skilled in fire attacks. It was conscripted into the army and used as a mount. You will rely on it for your journey this time."

An explanation came from the side. Lu Zhaozhao looked and saw that it was the palace guard of the third level. After a simple bow to him, Lu Zhaozhao shifted his gaze back to the strange beast.

"The Hell Flame Nightmare Beast? What a domineering name." She exclaimed in admiration, then rolled over and landed steadily on the strange beast.

The specially trained strange beast suppressed the anger in its heart and simply exhaled two balls of black air to express its dissatisfaction towards Lu Zhaozhao who was riding on it. It did not do any other extreme behavior.

After she went up, the others also climbed up one by one. The ten winners of the competition were in the front, riding on strange beasts, followed by the forty defeated ones. Behind them was the demon army ready to go, and in the front was the palace guard.

Lu Zhaozhao looked at his back and couldn't help but be curious. What kind of cultivation level and ability did this confidant of the Demon Lord have who could hold such an important position in the Ming Palace and be feared by the eight commanders?

She couldn't get the answer now. She just watched the armored palace guard in front of her raise his arms and shout, and all the demon legions behind him responded in unison. Then, an army marched towards the distance in a mighty manner.

In the eyes of humans, the Western Territory is a land of dead bones. Lu Zhaozhao didn't realize this originally, but he understood it along the way.

The endless desert was a desolate expanse of yellow earth. They crossed a wide, dry riverbed. At dusk, a large, rotten, dilapidated wooden boat lay on the dry riverbed. The setting sun fell right on the bow, and all around it were dead bones, battered beyond recognition by the wind and sand over the years.

As night falls, a cold moon hangs high in the sky. The wind blows, and fine sand slides gently. The wonders carved by nature around are like demons in the dark night, whispering and devouring passers-by.

Such a journey was tedious and dangerous. Although the demon army would not be attacked within the borders, the dangers in the western borders were never so great as to intimidate living creatures, and the dangers hidden underground were even more terrifying.

Beneath the seemingly calm ground lies a flowing sand pit. Once you stray into it, it is difficult to get out and you can only wait to be swallowed up in pain. One day, a hundred years later, you will become a unique decoration of this land like other dry bones on the roadside.

The Western Territory and the Demon Clan are indeed worthy of their reputation.

Lu Zhaozhao was afraid and followed the team silently.

After walking for nearly half a month and crossing most of the western border, they finally saw the border pass.

"Finally, I can take a break." Nan Rongrui complained softly, "This journey is really tiring."

She expressed what most people are thinking. This journey has been a torment on the spirit that is difficult to erase.

When the army reached the pass, the palace guard raised his hand to signal the troops to stop, and then sent a vanguard holding a command staff to knock on the gate.

Time passed bit by bit, but the pioneer still hadn't returned, and the door showed no sign of opening.

Everyone realized something was wrong.

"Swish--" A cold arrow came towards the palace guard's face, but he dodged it by turning his head. A demon behind him was hit by the arrow, and flames suddenly swept through his body, and he was reduced to ashes in an instant.

"Enemy attack!"

The team was in turmoil for a while and was suppressed by the palace guards, but after a cold arrow, there was a rain of arrows.

Subconsciously, everyone gathered their spiritual power to form a barrier to block the cold arrows in front of them.

"what!"

A scream was heard behind him. Lu Zhaozhao took a quick glance and saw that the cold arrow penetrated the barrier of the demons with low spiritual power, piercing through many demons. Balls of fire rose and fell in the formation.

"Fall back!"

The palace guard gave orders and the team acted according to his orders, but soon stopped.

A charred demon soldier came running over, saying anxiously, "There are enemies behind us, we are surrounded!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the army immediately became panicked, with many voices mixed in.

"What is that thing? Why is it so scary?" Changyu Lanshan asked. He looked at Huai Jiang, who was best at using hidden weapons.

"If it's not from the Western Territory, then it must be from outside." Huai Jiang's face was gloomy.

Lu Zhaozhao waved his hand to break the arrow that flew in front of him, and after listening to Huai Jiang's words, he lowered his head to look at the broken arrow.

The arrowheads and wings do look like human things, especially the spiritual energy attached to them, which is very different from the demons in the Western Territory and does not belong to the category of monsters.

The human race actually came in?

Lu Zhaozhao was puzzled, and the next second, her doubts were answered.

Figures appeared one after another on the wall of the pass. The one in the center shouted to the demon army below, "We have been lying in ambush here for a long time, just to take your lives today! Give me your lives!"

The other demon soldiers in the team focused their attention on the human enemy, but Lu Zhaozhao saw the clothes that person was wearing at a glance.

White background with yellow stripes, yin-yang hair tied up, and talismans on the body, he is from the Kongshan School!

No wonder, Lu Zhaozhao thought, no wonder these cold arrows have such effect, because they are not real cold arrows, but are transformed from talismans, and they change as soon as they get close.

"Oh, so they are a group of human Taoist priests, they are quite arrogant." Qianhe sneered coldly.

At this moment, the army also stabilized, and the palace guard raised his arm and guided the army.

"Charge! Tear these people to pieces! The one who takes the most credit will be awarded the third rank!"

The demons' bloodthirsty genes were ready to move, and coupled with the sky-breaking reward, the eyes of all the demons present were bloodshot. The humans in front of them were no longer enemies, but stepping stones to the next level!

"What, what's going on? Why are they suddenly so brave?" someone from the Kongshan Sect exclaimed, but the leader shouted, "Calm down! Use talismans to attack. These monsters are very strong and cannot be attacked by force. Quickly notify the ambushes at the other passes. They've fallen into a trap."

"Yes!"

The Kongshan Sect regrouped and used the terrain advantage to launch a pincer attack. Talismans fell from the sky, making loud noises.

Both humans and demons were blood-thirsty, and the monsters revealed their true forms.

The Di people blocked out the sun and sky. In the shadows, the Guhuo bird began to sing. Luwu's tiger-like claws dug into the crowd, blood splattered everywhere. The Gu Diao attacked, and it was hard to resist...

The human race began to lose, and their previous advantages disappeared. They began to switch to defense and struggled to hold on.

"They can't do it anymore, hahaha, try harder, everyone, let's charge in." Changyu Lanshan roared to the sky. After the last battle with Guannan, his cultivation broke through the blockage, and the strength in his body made him feel particularly comfortable at this moment.

"I got it, shut up." Jie Yi took over and struck hard, repelling a large group of people.

Lu Zhaozhao was a little distressed at the moment. She naturally could not kill humans. She was recalling the battle, but this battle between humans and demons happened too long ago and the records had long been vague. Moreover, such a scene might have been just a small battle at the time, so it would be difficult to record it in the books.

"We can't hold on any longer, Kongshan Sect."

Lu Zhaozhao whispered these words, and the next moment, the city gate opened wide.
