Chapter 1765: Sacred Artifact of War

Rolling dark demonic energy covered the entire Xuanwu Holy Land. In a mountain range tens of millions of miles away from the Xuanwu Peak Demon Abyss, there was a slightly smaller dark abyss.

In this dark abyss, dark demonic energy was also erupting outward. The Demon Abyss was built into different levels of areas around it. Nearly 10,000 cultivators of varying levels of cultivation were scattered in different areas with the Demon Abyss as the center.

This was the original Xuanwu Holy Land, and now the mountain gate of the Xuanwu Demon Sect.

Because it was the first sect to surrender to the Dark Holy Spirit, in the Xuanwu Demon Sect, in addition to the Xuanwu Demon Venerable, there were still 30 talents with the highest qualifications who had not been transformed into demon puppets.

The Xuanwu Demon Venerable and these 30 Xuanwu Demon Sect talents were sitting in the area closest to the Demon Abyss, breathing in and out the dark demonic energy erupting from the Demon Abyss, and practicing the dark magic skills passed down by the Holy Spirit Daozun.

If Wu Yan were here, he would definitely recognize that among these thirty people, there was Ming Tiandao, who had chased him in the Earth Spirit Realm.

At this moment, Ming Tiandao was sitting cross-legged next to the Xuanwu Demon Venerable, and his aura was the most powerful among the thirty people!

In the outer circle of these thirty people, there were a group of people who had lost their independent consciousness and completely became dark demon puppets, but their cultivation had reached the level of Demon Venerable. There were hundreds of them!

This was certainly not the original strength of the Xuanwu Holy Land, but the dark demon puppets newly assigned to the Xuanwu Demon Sect after being demonized.

In addition to the more than one hundred dark demon venerables, the training platforms that were arranged in a fan shape were densely packed with more than nine thousand dark demon puppets with an aura reaching the emperor level!

Outside these more than nine thousand emperor-level dark demon puppets, there were densely packed, countless black human-shaped skeletons. They all sat cross-legged, and there was a faint blood-red light flashing in their skulls.

These black humanoid skeletons, however, could not withstand the infusion of dark demonic energy, and eventually collapsed, leaving only the original disciples of the Xuanwu Holy Land with demonized souls, as well as the immortals of the small sects and families affiliated with them.

If you count them carefully, you will find that their number exceeds one million!

Suddenly, a demon shadow flashed and appeared in the air, and soon condensed into a terrifying demon shadow of tens of thousands of feet in the rolling dark demonic energy in the air!

In the demon shadow's head, two terrifying blood-red lights flashed, covering the Xuanwu Demon Venerable below and the thirty dark demon cultivators with independent consciousness beside him.

The Xuanwu Demon Venerable and the thirty dark demon cultivators who noticed the movement stood up one after another and respectfully saluted the demon shadow, saying: "My subordinate Xuanwu, leading all the disciples and demon puppets of the Xuanwu Demon Sect, pay homage to the Demon Venerable!"

"The Holy Spirit Dao Zun asked you to investigate the descendants of the Hongmeng Heavenly Dao. Is there any clue?" the demon shadow said.

"Reporting to the Demon Lord, I have sent a team of demon puppets to the border of the Merit Holy Land, preparing to capture some merit immortals for research, and then find a way to strip them of their merit heavenly power, disguise them, and then sneak into the Merit Holy Land for investigation." Xuanwu Demon Lord said.

"Do you think he should be in Xuantian instead of going to the Western World?"

"Yes. Based on my understanding of him, he must still be in Xuantian."

"Why are you so sure?"

"This person's temperament is very different from that of ordinary cultivators. He values ​​friendship too much, so he created a sect in the Earth Spirit Realm, where some of his most important relatives and friends are settled. In terms of his temperament, if he has the ability to leave, he will definitely take these people with him."

Xuanwu Demon Lord glanced at the demon shadow of the Demon Lord, and seeing that he looked like he was listening, he continued.

"I have deployed in the lower world. According to the news they sent, the Baoxiao Sect still exists, and the personnel seem to have not changed. What's even more strange is that most of the areas in the Earth Spirit Realm have become the Merit Heavenly Dao area, but the area within a million miles under the jurisdiction of the Baoxiao Sect has not been included in the Merit Heavenly Dao area. Therefore, I suspect that he may have made some deployments in secret, which is why it is like this."

"Your speculation is not unreasonable. It seems that I came to you this time. It just so happens that I have to go to the lower world, so I can check this matter."

"Master Demon is going to the lower world? I wonder if there is anything I can do for you?"

The Xuanwu Demon Venerable said with a slight change in his expression.

"I heard that the palm you left in the lower world was cut off by the Divine Machine Holy Light of the Divine Machine City. Is this true?" The two blood-red eyes of the Demon Venerable suddenly locked onto the Xuanwu Demon Venerable.

Xuanwu's heart suddenly tightened, but he was locked in by the two blood-red eyes, so he didn't dare to make any other unusual movements. He also didn't dare to resist the Demon Lord in front of him, so he said obediently: "I dare not deceive the Demon Lord. My palm was indeed cut off by the Holy Light of the Divine Machine. Could it be that the Demon Lord wants to take over the Divine Machine City?"

"Hahaha!"

Hearing the words of the Xuanwu Demon Lord, the demon shadow suddenly burst into a very happy laugh.

"Okay, okay, okay, I didn't expect that there is a Divine Machine City in this world! Tell me, where is the Divine Machine City. If I can successfully get the Divine Machine City, you will definitely benefit from it!"

"How dare I ask the Demon Lord for a benefit. I can't determine the specific location of the Divine Machine City, but I still know the general direction. Here is a map, and you will know it at a glance. I dare to ask the Demon Lord a question, I wonder if you are willing to tell me?"

Although Demon Venerable Xuanwu was very unwilling, he still obediently presented a map. That map was the map of the fairy world, and it clearly marked the location where Shenji City might appear.

"Whatever your question is, just ask it. As long as I can answer it, I won't let you down."

After getting this picture, the Demon Lord was in a good mood and responded very cheerfully.

"I would like to ask your Excellency for advice. I wonder what is so mysterious about the Divine Machine City that makes Your Excellency pay so much attention to it." Xuanwu Demon Lord looked at the demonic figure carefully and asked, as if he was afraid of irritating him.

Unexpectedly, upon hearing his words, the Demon Lord showed no sign of anger, and actually said cheerfully and with some surprise: "One of your palms was cut off by its defensive holy light, isn't it clear? Hahaha, yes, there are really not many people who know this. However, it doesn’t hurt to tell you. Divine Machine City is not just a city and fortress with the inheritance of Divine Machine Civilization. Its real powerful role is actually in combat. . To be precise, it is a true sacred weapon of war, and it is most suitable for use in large-scale battles. If you can get this object, you will greatly increase the chance of victory in wars with meritorious beings. "

"So that's it!" Xuanwu said with a sudden look on his face, and he was secretly annoyed in his heart. If he had known the true purpose of Shenji City, which was just a war artifact, he would never have reached out to take it out so rashly.

"Okay, don't think too much about it. This kind of treasure is simply uncontrollable for a lord of your level. You should hurry up and trace the whereabouts of the successor of Hongmeng Tiandao. Although Holy Spirit Taoist Lord gave you half a year, You have been given great authority, but judging from my experience, if you continue to delay like this, you will definitely not be able to complete the task assigned by the Holy Spirit. When the time comes, you will be turned into a dark puppet, but there will be no chance of turning back. ”

The demonic figure warned Xuanwu a few words, and as the dark demonic energy surged, he gradually dispersed and disappeared, as if he had never appeared before.

Demon Venerable Xuanwu's expression changed slightly. After thinking about it, he said to Ming Tiandao next to him: "Mingtian Dao, please go to Yuantongtian for me. I suspect that Wu Yan may have sneaked back to Yuantongtian. If not, half a year will pass. Why did the Dragon Emperor Yuantong suddenly appear in the Dragon Emperor's capital and bring back all the people who went to the ruins of the ancient holy land?"

"Yes, Master, don't worry. If he is really in Yuantongtian, the disciple will definitely catch him!" Mingtian Dao said respectfully.

Now with the help of dark demonic energy, his cultivation is much stronger than before. And because he has cultivated more sophisticated dark magic skills, the power of his Taoist magic has become several times more powerful than before. This made him more confident.

"This merit clone was obtained by asking a Demon Lord to kill a meritorious Immortal Lord at a high price. I will lend it to you temporarily. When you get to Yuantongtian, you can directly possess him. It won't attract anyone's attention. Be careful not to be noticed by the Holy Spirit of Merit. If it is noticed, you can never expect to come back safely. "Xuanwu Demon Lord solemnly warned.

"Disciple understands, Master and fellow senior brothers, take care, disciple is gone!"

Mingtian Dao used his own small world of Dao to receive the merit clones of Xuanwu's dark Dao world. Then he left the Xuanwu Demon Sect and turned into a streak of magic light, rushing at an unusually weird and fast speed in the billowing dark demonic energy. Flash away.

I have to say that this dark demonic energy is really weird. For the dark demons, it is simply the best means of transportation through space.

…

A month passed by in a blink of an eye.

On this day, Wu Yan's courtyard was once again filled with meritorious immortals!

There seemed to be a lot of people coming this time, more than 10,000 people, and a meritorious deity actually appeared! In addition to this meritorious deity, hundreds of other meritorious deities also came, which shows how great the sensation caused by the merit elixir last time!

What was even more astonishing was that, without exception, these people all consciously waited for him to come out of seclusion in the vestibule, and none of them dared to lose their temper.

However, even if these people restrained their aura, the aura exuded by every gesture was enough to make Long Xuzi and the disciples who were waiting in the courtyard tremble with fear for a long time.

Suddenly, everyone noticed that an extremely astonishing golden light suddenly burst into the backyard, illuminating the entire courtyard in an instant.

That golden light continued to spread outwards within tens of breaths, and soon reached a range of thousands of miles. Wherever it passed, it actually resonated with the great avenues and heavenly ways in countless meritorious immortals!
