Chapter 393 The Lost Soul
The demonic energy was spreading rapidly along the cracks in space. In almost the blink of an eye, the area outside the Pluto formation was filled with demonic shadows.
Countless demon armies completely surrounded the Pluto's formation.
"You little human thief, come out and die!"
Before the creatures around who were checking the Hades' formation could retreat, a loud shout filled with murderous intent had already resounded throughout the miles.
In a world where gods and demons coexist, a loud shout filled with murderous intent directly killed countless lives of low-level cultivators within a radius of tens of thousands of miles.
"coming!"
Zhang Chu, who was observing the cultivators who came from the Heaven-shaking World to the Ancient World, looked directly outside the formation. His extremely powerful semi-immortal consciousness spread directly to the surroundings, feeling the strong ones among the demons, but he sighed, "Not so good!"
A rough estimate of the number of demon army coming is only tens of millions.
There aren't many people with high levels of cultivation, and most of them are just small fry.
It looks quite intimidating, but once you enter the formation, you will be like cannon fodder.
As for those powerful demons among them, Zhang Chu was not worried at all.
They entered the formation, just in time to offer a blood sacrifice to the Corpse King Banner and the Quasi-Soul Banner.
"Master, are you going out to fight?"
When Zhang Chu's semi-immortal consciousness spread outward, Gai Jiuyou's consciousness also spread out, and a trace of worry appeared on his face.
Among those demon armies, there are dozens of demons whose strength is only slightly weaker than his.
There are also three or five others whose strength far exceeds his, and have already reached the might of the ancient emperors of the Shrouding Heaven world.
"Why do you want to go out and fight?"
Zhang Chu glanced at Gai Jiuyou and said, "Wouldn't it be better to wait for them to come in?"
"As long as they enter the formation, they will be no different from small fry!"
Ever since the twelve quasi-supreme soul banners were successfully refined and had a main soul, the Pluto formation they had set up has not yet been used to its full power.
Now is the perfect time to use the flesh, blood, and souls of these demons to launch the attack on the formation!
"You guys remember this,"
Having said this, Zhang Chu also set his sights on the cultivators brought from the world of Covering the Sky, "You came here to look for opportunities,"
"I'm not here to die!"
"Wait until they enter the formation before taking action!"
"Yes, Taoist Master!"
At this moment, many monks are full of energy.
They have already felt their lost vitality returning. In terms of lifespan, even they themselves don't know how long they can live.
With a bright future ahead of them, they naturally cherish their lives.
"messenger,"
The powerful human beings who were secretly observing Zhang Chu's formation also set their sights on the temple envoy, "Should we take action?"
Millions of demons came together to surround and kill a human strongman, and the strength of that strongman was already equivalent to a god-level existence among the human race.
Every god-level cultivator is extremely precious among the human race. Even if some of them have unknown origins, they are unwilling to give up.
After all, the god-level existence among the human race is the top combat force for the entire human race!
"Wait first!"
The envoy of the temple looked at the formation that was completely surrounded by the demon army. After a moment of silence, he finally spoke, "If the Taoist priest Changsheng cannot escape from the siege of the demons, we will lend him a helping hand!"
As god-level beings of the human race, even if there are some grudges between them, they will not let a god-level being of the human race die easily under the siege of the demon army.
As a result, many powerful human beings, looking at the besieged formation, had no intention of withdrawing, but stood quietly far away, ready to come to the rescue at any time.
"Kill~"
At this moment, the commander of the demon army saw that after his loud shout, there was no movement at all in the formation in front of him.
He was also angry and gave orders directly. Countless demon armies rushed directly into the area covered by fog, which was the area where the Pluto formation was located.
The same went for the strong ones among the demons; they also followed the demon army and charged in.
Zhang Chu, who was in the formation, saw this scene, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
After the entire demon army had entered the fog, the Corpse King Formation and the Pluto Formation began to operate directly.
"Everyone,"
Zhang Chu said to the monks beside him, "Wait for the opportunity to kill the powerful demons!"
"If you have the ability, you can use the Heaven Devouring Demonic Art to seize the essence and blood of those powerful demons to increase your strength!"
"Remember, protecting yourself is the most important thing!"
"As for these demons, once they enter the formation, their life and death will no longer be theirs!"
"Yes, Taoist Master!"
Many monks simply bowed in response.
The Heaven-Devouring Demonic Art was created by the Henren Emperor. It absorbs the blood and essence of living beings and refines them into a technique to strengthen the body.
This time, it is bound to shine brightly in the ancient world.
After all, the ones who practice this technique are more than a hundred beings above the third level of the Xiantai Secret Realm.
The power division in ancient times was quite simple. Those who had just ascended were at one level, and then there were the emperor level, the king level, and the god level.
The god level is the monk who has comprehended the laws.
According to the power division of the ancient world, the cultivators of the world of Zhutian had already come into contact with the laws when they were in the Xiantai Secret Realm. Otherwise, how could they have possibly crossed the void?
Among the hundreds of cultivators from the world of Shrouding the Sky that Zhang Chu brought with him, the weakest of them were from the third level of the Xiantai Secret Realm, and all of them could cross the void.
Since one can cross the void, it means that one must have come into contact with or even comprehended the existence of the laws.
In the world of Shrouding the Sky, cultivators who were above the third level of the Xiantai Secret Realm were already equivalent to god-level existences in the ancient times.
Even if their power is only equivalent to that of an early god-level existence, those more than a hundred early god-level existences are a force that cannot be ignored among the ancient human race, and it is even a force that can determine the future of the human race.
After all, among the top forces of the ancient human race, there are only one or two god-level figures.
As for those who have reached the late god level, they are like pillars among the ancient human race.
Among the more than one hundred cultivators from the Zhatian World brought by Zhang Chu, only he and Gai Jiuyou had reached the late god level.
The two late-stage gods, with more than a hundred early-stage and middle-stage gods, relied on a large formation to ambush the army of tens of millions of demons.
No matter how you calculate it, those tens of millions of demon troops are bound to be wiped out at this moment!
Nearly tens of millions of demon troops entered the Pluto's formation, but there was not a single ripple.
Looking at the tens of millions of demon army, the evil soul in the Quasi-Soul Banner also appeared silently in the formation, as did the refined corpse in the Corpse King Banner.
Just in terms of numbers, the number of evil souls in the Quasi-Supreme Soul Banner is definitely no less than those of the demons, not to mention the corpses being refined!
As Zhang Chu's magic formula surged, the refined corpses and evil spirits that appeared in the formation directly confronted the demons.
The fighting has already begun from this moment.
The fifteen golden-armored corpses are equivalent to the combat power of Mahayana, which means that their strength is equivalent to the late or even peak god level in this world.
There are also the main souls in the twelve quasi-supreme soul banners. No matter which main soul it is, the strength is at the peak of the god level, or even beyond the peak of the god level.
Therefore, the demon clan must remember that the moment they entered the formation, their fate was already determined. Those with high cultivation had golden armor corpses and main souls to deal with, while those with low cultivation had those ordinary refined corpses and the evil spirits in the soul flags to deal with.
With the addition of more than a hundred cultivators from the world of Shrouding the Sky, Zhang Chu doesn't have to take any action in this battle, and those demons will die in the ancient times.
As one after another of the Zhatian monks took action, more and more demons were devoured by the Devouring Heaven Magic Art and became the nourishment for them to improve their strength.
As for the souls of the demons?
How could you possibly escape when you are in the Pluto's formation?
At the moment of death, the soul was directly swallowed up by the Soul Banner and became nourishment for the evil spirit in the Soul Banner.
Those powerful demon souls were directly infected by the Soul Banner and became one of the billions of evil spirits in the Soul Banner.
In less than an hour, tens of millions of demons had been killed in the formation.
A gray light flashed, and all the corpses disappeared in the formation. They were all swallowed up by the Corpse King Banner, turning into nutrients to enhance the corpse refining strength, and also became the foundation for the Corpse King Banner to continue to advance.
A black light flashed, and all the demon souls in the formation were swallowed up by the soul flag.
Millions of demon armies were completely wiped out just like that.
At this moment in the outside world, those human cultivators were looking at the fog-filled formation in front of them with extreme nervousness, but no human cultivator had any intention of entering it.
"what happened?"
The faces of many human cultivators were filled with confusion.
It was because the fog in front of them was too calm, there wasn't even any sound of a major battle.
After all, as long as there is a war, there will inevitably be dead souls appearing.
However, there are none now, just like the tens of millions of demons who have not entered the fog in front of them.
"messenger?"
Many human monks cast puzzled looks at the temple messenger.
"hold on!"
The Temple Messenger shook his head.
Only an hour has passed, how is it possible to determine the winner?
The many strong men among the human race also fell silent.
They didn't think that Zhang Chu could win the battle under the siege of tens of millions of demons.
Among the tens of millions of demons, there are many who are equivalent to the god-level powerhouses of the human race.
Time passes by little by little, the fog in front of me is still fog, and there is still no movement.
And in the demon world, in the hall of a demon dynasty.
A figure was running quickly towards a palace.
"Demon Emperor, this is bad!"
"What's the matter?"
"The demon army that was just sent out to punish the human race has lost contact!"
"what?"
The Demon Emperor stood up directly, moved his body, and appeared directly above the palace, letting out a sharp hiss!
Soon, densely packed demons appeared in front of the Demon King.
"Tear~"
With a wave of the Demon Emperor's hand, the Demon Realm was torn apart, and Taigu appeared in front of the Demon Emperor.
With a flash of his figure, he had already entered the ancient times, followed closely by countless demons.
Soon, countless demon armies appeared around the fog that covered an area of ten thousand miles.
"Demon Emperor?"
The powerful human beings who were waiting silently in the surroundings all had their pupils slightly shrank after seeing the demon army, especially after seeing the leader, the Demon Emperor.
The many powerful people among the ancient human race looked at each other and gathered together.
The Demon Emperor looked at the foggy area in front of him, and a look of doubt flashed in his eyes.
He didn't sense any breath of demons at all, as if the demons that had arrived before had completely disappeared.
"Whoosh~"
The figure of the Demon Emperor moved that day, and he appeared directly in front of those powerful human beings, and asked them coldly, "Where is my demon army?"
"The Demon King,"
The Temple Messenger looked at the Demon Emperor and hesitated for a moment, "They have all entered the fog!"
"Mist?"
The Demon Emperor glanced at the mist, a murderous intent flashed in his eyes, "You humans killed my son, so why don't you give me an explanation?"
"The Demon Emperor needs to find an explanation himself!"
The temple messenger also discovered some clues at this moment, "That person is in the fog!"
If the Taoist priest Changsheng was captured and killed, how could the Demon Emperor appear?
Now that the Demon Emperor has appeared, it means that the tens of millions of demon troops have been killed.
Thinking of this, the temple messenger has secretly made up his mind to protect the Taoist priest of immortality.
With his own strength, he killed several demons who were equivalent to god-level masters. This kind of strength made him see the hope of human race against the ancient races.
The Sky Demon Emperor glared at the Temple Emissary fiercely, and waved his hand at the demon army behind him, "Kill!"
Once again, an army of tens of millions of demons rushed into the fog, but the fog did not even waver in the slightest.
The Demon Emperor also walked inside.
Several hours passed, and that day the Demon Emperor led an army of tens of millions of demons, as if they had never entered the fog.
The fog was still extremely calm.
At this point, the human warriors standing on the periphery ready to rescue at any time already had expressions of horror on their faces.
"messenger,"
A strong man came out and said, "Let's go take a look?"
"it is good,"
The temple envoy nodded and said, "Let's pay a visit in advance!"
After saying that, he went directly to the front of the mist, "Daoyou Changsheng, the Holy Temple has brought many powerful human beings to visit us!"
As soon as the words fell, the fog moved directly to both sides, and soon a passage appeared.
Led by the temple messengers, many powerful human beings went directly along the passage and went deeper.
As they entered, the passage behind them completely disappeared.
And in the depths of the ancient world, there stood a series of extremely terrifying figures. One of the figures uttered a few words in a daze, "Where did the soul go?"
