Chapter 5 The Beginning of the Invasion (Part 1)
On August 12, Tianyuan 427, the first real space crack appeared in the sky above Qixia Realm.
On this day, 348 monsters emerged from this space crack. The strongest one was a little demon hunter, whose strength was roughly equivalent to that of a Linghai student. A small local sect was responsible for guarding the local sect and annihilated them all. kill.
On August 13, two more space cracks appeared, and the number continued to increase every day thereafter.
From August 13th to early September, in just half a month, the space cracks increased from the original one to more than 300. The largest space crack was three feet long, and a tall and sturdy Minotaur squeezed out from this space crack, waving a flail, and its whole body was burning with black flames. After it "wreaked havoc" on this land for a cup of tea, it was killed by a spiritual master who arrived in time with a flying sword.
At this time, Hongmeng monsters have not yet shown the power to subvert the world, but the increasing cracks and increasingly powerful monsters have shown the future trend. Maybe it won't be long before the real horror appears.
September 18th.
An eighteen-foot-long space crack appeared, and four transformation-level bone demons emerged from this space crack. Since they happened to appear in a remote place, the local sect was weak and could not stop them. It wasn't until half a day later that a middle-level sect sent four real people to kill him.
On September 29th, a space crack appeared in the sky above Bincheng, and more than three thousand monsters poured out of it. This is the largest number to date. A large number of monsters wreaked havoc in Bincheng, and a large number of mortals who stayed in the city because they were reluctant to leave home were killed. Their blood flowed into rivers, making it the first city in Qixia Realm to be bloodbathed.
Although Tang Jie launched the Pinghai Eighth Mountain to destroy the demon army in time, there were still heavy casualties in the city.
This was also Tang Jie's first time to activate Pinghai Yazhong Mountain, which took a moment and thirty-two spiritual stones.
From this day on, monsters began to appear in organized groups, which meant that on the other side of the world, the demon clan had begun to truly gather together.
On October 7th, a 24-foot-long space crack appeared in the South China Sea, and a group of flame demons emerged from it. The Flame Demon is the fifty-second ranked monster in the Grimoire. It has extremely strong combat power, even surpassing monsters ranked ten higher than it. However, it has two fatal weaknesses. One cannot fly, the other cannot swim.
A total of two thousand flame demons fell into the sea as soon as they entered the human world. Before they could resist, they all drowned in the sea and were fed to the fish and sharks.
Today is a great victory for mankind.
October 20th.
Above Yuecang Mountain in the north of Qixia,
A space crack appeared and then disappeared, and only one monster emerged from the crack.
Blood Demon.
Blood Demons are already considered to be at the top of the food chain in the Hongmeng Realm. In a sense, they have begun to break away from the title of monsters and should be called demons. The biggest difference between demons and monsters is intelligence. They can think like humans, learn, and progress. Monsters have natural levels that are extremely difficult to break through, but demons are different. They can cultivate and have different levels.
This blood demon is a Zifu-level existence, and is also the first Zifu to enter the Qixia Realm. When it entered the Qixia Realm, it changed into a human form with a ferocious smile. Obviously it knows very well that its own strength alone is not enough to cause trouble, so it has to hide first and then secretly hunt humans.
Under normal circumstances, this blood demon would be enough to cause great trouble to humans. In the past Hongmeng catastrophe, every time the demons mixed in, it would bring huge chaos to humans, but it was difficult for humans to find them.
But this time, things are different.
This blood demon was sensed by Tang Jie as soon as it entered Qixia Realm.
The next moment, a thundercloud appeared in the sky above Yuecang Mountain, like a catastrophe in the apocalypse, and waves of thick thunder struck at the unlucky Blood Demon. The blood demon was so powerful that he withstood eighteen thunderbolts, but still died on the nineteenth.
On that day, part of Pinghai Yae Mountain was opened twice, consuming 148 spirit stones.
It's early November.
At this time, a large number of space cracks were appearing in Qixia Realm almost every day, and some cracks even began to connect with each other to form larger cracks, and the monsters coming out of them were getting stronger and stronger.
Tianhuang Ridge in the west of the desert, noon.
This is a deserted ridge with no human habitation for hundreds of miles.
On the empty mountain ridge, a ball of light appeared inexplicably.
It was the size of a fist at first, then became larger and larger, and gradually turned into a light door.
The light door gradually stabilized after a violent flash, and it stood like this on the ridge. What appeared behind the door was an endless darkness.
A large number of monsters began to come out from behind the door.
This is the first time that monsters no longer enter through space cracks, but through space gates.
The biggest difference between the two is that the latter is generated through supreme supernatural power. With the help of the weakening of space barriers, powerful demons can create their own space gates to travel through. Compared with space cracks, its biggest advantage is that you can control the place where it appears, and you don't have to worry about running into the hands of powerful humans before it comes.
Different from the relatively single monsters in the past, the monsters coming out from behind the door are obviously more diverse but more organized.
After entering the Qixia Realm, these monsters did not immediately rush into the human world and kill people. Instead, they began to cut down wood, collect stones, refine metals, and then build cities on the ground.
Some of them even collected resources from everywhere, and some demons with strong intelligence used these resources to start setting up formations in the city building areas.
Yes, the demons also know formations. Although due to scarcity of resources, they know very few formations, under the unique environment, the demons also have their own methods to create.
Some weak monsters were summoned and killed. The blood with a strong sulfur smell exuded strong demonic properties and became the best material for laying out arrays. In conjunction with the city construction project, the demon clan began to build its own fortress in the human world. .
After all, it is an attack that will last for a hundred years. Without a stronghold, it will be difficult to fight.
It is for this reason that as early invaders, most of the powerful demons will choose hidden places. Although human cultivators have long figured out the habits of the demons through thousands of years of confrontation and have countermeasures, it is still extremely difficult to monitor the entire world.
Normally, more than half of the demons who secretly invade can successfully establish their own fortress. Although these fortresses will eventually be destroyed by humans, they have accomplished their purpose of delaying and distracting human cultivators.
But this time, the demon master who invaded Qixia Realm was obviously lucky. Even if it chooses to be in the sparsely populated Tianhuang Ridge, it still cannot hide it from Tang Jie. After all, Pinghai Yazhong Mountain is a top-level immortal formation with the purpose of sensing the origin. Unless it is an existence equal to Tang Jie, it can't hide it from his eyes and ears. .
Just one day later, this demon army was surrounded and suppressed by three large sects.
Tang Jie did not use Pinghai Yaeshan, but used the hands of cultivators to cleanly solve them, and then activated Pinghai Yaeshan to reduce consumption to the minimum. As for the powerful demon clan, he was destroyed before the space gate could grow enough to accommodate him. He could only roar angrily and violently at the bustling human world.
Another half month has passed, and the space barrier has become weaker and weaker.
More space cracks and space gates appear all over Qixia Realm, and their frequency and intensity far exceed any Hongmeng invasion that Qixia Realm has ever experienced. This is normal. As the world gets bigger and stronger, the number of demons we encounter will only increase.
But all the space gates, without exception, were destroyed by Tang Jie's troops.
According to previous invasion experience, by this time of Hongmeng's invasion, humans should have been exhausted. A large number of mortals were killed, resources were plundered, some cultivators died in battle, countless demons lurked and raided everywhere, at least two fortresses were established, and at least four fortresses were being established. The human world should be in a state of smoke and fire everywhere, with wailing and lamentation everywhere, and blood and gunpowder smoke everywhere...
But now, none of these things have happened.
Pinghai Yaeshan's powerful detection capabilities turned the originally all-pervasive sneak attacks, surprise attacks, and surprise attacks into ridiculous and clumsy tactics. Under Tang Jie's dispatch, monsters were killed one after another.
Not a single monster has completed its lurking, not a single fortress has been successfully built, not even under construction, and even the human cultivators have suffered almost no casualties.
However, a large number of demon lives were dissolved under the mana of Pinghai Yae Mountain and turned into the most original power, providing continuous support for the further improvement of this great immortal formation.
Time has entered early December.
The top of Saibei Snow Mountain.
A space crack was created out of thin air.
Two large hands emerged from behind the crack, each the size of a millstone, and there were ink-colored scales on the hands. Just grab the space crack and pull it to both sides, and the crack begins to expand, which indicates that the owner of these hands not only has powerful magic power, but is at least an existence in the Dao space.
As the crack continued to expand, first a huge head squeezed out from behind the crack, and then a body that was a hundred feet high. Such a huge real body means that Ruobu belongs to a small number of special races, and is a demon whose cultivation has reached the level of Sendai.
This demon is still squeezing in. Its true form is so powerful that it is not easy to pass through this space crack. This is the only way he can enter the space so quickly. If it were other demons, he would probably come in. Even harder.
After struggling for a while, the demon finally squeezed most of its body into Qixia Realm. At this time, it can be seen that it is a demon with a lizard-like head, but its mouth is extremely large, and its whole body All covered with scales.
At this moment, he was squeezing and muttering: "If you force your way in before the time has come, it will be a disaster for me if those human cultivators find out that they are blocking the way again and are unable to advance or retreat. It is clear that the situation here is different and needs to be investigated." Just send me to die!"
The more I thought about it, the more worried I became, and I accelerated my efforts to break through the cracks again.
At this time, most of its huge body has passed through the crack, and only its legs have not come through. It can pass through if it works harder.
Just then, a voice sounded: "Do you need help?"
The lizard demon's body immediately froze.
Looking up, I saw three figures appearing not far away, each of them clearly of Sendai level.
The lizard demon felt a chill in his heart, swallowed his saliva and said, "Damn, it's over."
