Chapter 3 Underneath the Waves
The dragon is entrenched, and even the sky dares to roar up to the sky. How majestic is the scene?
But the dragon is still a dragon after all, and if it doesn't transform into a dragon, it will never be able to defy heaven.
"I've done everything I can to help. In the end, this last step still depends on you." On top of the city wall, Xia Zhao, the female lord of Great Xia, murmured.
Xia Zhao looked around calmly. Although the majestic city of Chang'an was crowded with people, in her eyes, it was empty and empty at the moment.
The energy that the Xia royal family had accumulated for thousands of years in Chang'an was gone.
The great luck of the day now belongs to one person.
"Throughout thousands of years, the first female sword immortal in history..." Xia Zhao chuckled softly, feeling extremely interesting and looking forward to it, "If your sword chooses her, then she will definitely be able to do it." of."
"Definitely." The female queen was extremely confident.
...
Xia Daoyun's five hundred years of cultivation have always been smooth sailing.
The hurdles for most monks in the world cannot be said to be easily overcome for her, but rather do not exist at all.
——There are no gaps in the eyes of tigers, but there are all obstacles in the eyes of mortals.
But even if one is as talented as Xia Daoyun, before reaching the gate of Sword Immortal, his progress will inevitably become slower and slower, and he will encounter obstacles and be unable to comprehend a higher level.
It's like there's a dark cloud covering the road ahead.
Only by clearing away the clouds can we see the light.
Jian Xiu clears the way.
This is a path with little experience to speak of.
At that time, there was only one Sword Immortal left, and when Lu Qingshan asked about it, the only answer he gave was "You can become a Sword Immortal by eating fish and fighting."
Is this the path to becoming a swordsman?
Indeed, because this is how Chu Mu Shen became the Sword Immortal.
But it really isn't.
Because anyone in the world except Chu Mu Shen would definitely not become a Sword Immortal if he did this.
The path of the Sword Immortal is only suitable for them and can never be replicated.
.........
Xia Daoyun stopped looking at the city wall and turned around. Only the way out of the city under his feet was left in his sight.
Back then, the swordsman named Chang'an took this road out of Chang'an.
The flat and wide road leads to an unseen distance, as if there is no end.
"He told me that if you want to walk the road of invincibility, you must first walk through countless roads. Since you have inherited his sword, then go and walk the road he walked. Maybe it will be helpful to you. It will be inspiring.”
The question she was thinking hard about had not yet been answered, but Xia Zhao provided her with a solution and an idea for her to confirm.
Xia Zhao's words were specious, but Xia Daoyun wanted to think more clearly.
"Nurturing the mind, enlightening the heart."
She knew she was missing something.
Cultivation emphasizes being out of the world.
Xia Daoyun looked back on his cultivation experience and realized that he was born with a heart as pure as a child and an intention as steel.
But it seems that the world is missing.
She has never been in the world since she started practicing.
Thinking like this, Xia Daoyun took a deep breath of air.
The spring rain begins.
The soil that the rain has flowed through has a strong smell, and the scent of green grass fills the air.
This was a smell she would never smell when she was wielding a sword across the sky in the past.
At this moment, Xia Daoyun completely clarified his direction.
She wants to retrace the path of seeking the Tao that Li Qiubei walked during the Chang'an period on foot. Step by step, she will travel through mountains and rivers, and finally complete the last step of transforming a dragon into a dragon.
.......
Both the Sword Sect and the Soldier Demon Clan believe that the beginning of the second Dao Demon War will occur outside the Yumen Pass.
But what no one expected was that while the Three Soldiers and Demons were mobilizing their troops and making preliminary preparations for the start of the war, the Asura clan from the Black Armor Region went ahead for no reason and almost against common sense. In one step, he launched an offensive against Guangling Pass guarded by Lun Wu Tang.
The human region corresponding to the Black Armor Domain is the Zhongwu Domain.
The Taoist sect in Zhongwu Domain is Lunwutang.
Among the seven sects of the human race, the two sects with the least presence are Jialou and Lunwutang.
Of course, it can be said that Jialou's business is spread all over the world, and it is the richest sect in the world. It is as rich as the sky, but it is just a habit of keeping a low profile.
It can also be said that Lunwutang is a meditative sect, and their practice system determines that they are more suitable to keep a low profile, so the existence of these two major sects is not obvious.
But no matter what you say, it cannot change the fact that among the Seven Dao Sects, Lun Wu Tang and Jia Lou are the two lowest ranked, and their overall strength is also the weakest - true strength is absolutely impossible no matter how low-key it is. Lack of presence.
The Jialou side is better. Although the sect monks are not very powerful, they are better because of their "well-equipped equipment."
In field battles or life-and-death fights, "equipment" is naturally not as good as the monk's own strength and combat literacy, because a strong monk can render all your magic weapons useless.
But when guarding the gate, this problem no longer exists.
No matter what, just throw all the magic weapons down.
Therefore, there is no need to worry too much about Jialou.
Calculated in this way, the weakest guard is Lun Wu Tang.
Ming cultivators are a practice system that is strong in life and death combat. They have extremely powerful latent abilities and martial arts skills that are so sophisticated that they can be compared with sword cultivators.
The two superimposed, so that if Ming Xiu planned well, he could often kill enemies that were stronger than himself.
But... Ming Xiu is not good at group fighting, and it can even be said that this is their weakness.
One-to-one, meditation is very strong, but many-to-many, meditation seems average.
The battle between Dao and demons is not even many versus many, but a human race's few versus many.
If the seven great passes are really broken one by one, then the first one to be broken is most likely Guangling Pass.
This is the tacit consensus among martial arts monks.
.......
The endless army of demons passed through the cracks in space like a torrent, coming from the Black Armor Domain to the outside of Guangling Pass, and then swarmed towards Guangling Pass.
That scene was like a big tide.
On the way forward of the demonic tide, there are some cities built by the human race outside the pass. They were originally used as bridgeheads, but at this moment they were like insignificant rocks in the tide, being washed away in an instant without stirring up any waves.
The real test is here.
...........
The Asura clan is one of the eight holy demon clans. They are famous for their bravery and proficiency in fighting. Their bloodline talent is the ultimate strength and they have the power to reach the sky.
This is a warlike and warlike race.
At this moment, the Asura clan showed a fighting spirit that was touching.
At the entrance of the space rift, four huge beings stood high above, looking at the demon army that was constantly flying out of the space rift in an orderly manner.
The four people have different looks, the only thing they have in common is that they are all extremely ugly.
The four of them are the four great Shura kings of the Asura clan.
The leaders of the military demon clan are the three top demon lords, Chi Zun, Zhan Zun, and Ming Zun.
The Asura clan has four Asura kings.
Poya, Rachituo, Bhimazitara and Rahu.
Each of the four great Shura Kings has thirty-five times the combat power of the ninth level.
Boya's eyes were full of pride.
Because he is the nominal ruler of the Black Armor Domain, and it is under his proper governance that the Asura clan has grown to this point.
"Luo Hu, Guangling Pass is the weakest among the seven human passes. Taking it slow is a sure-win strategy. Why rush now?" Luo Qiantuo frowned, obviously opposed to the decision to attack.
"The first person to stand out will be the target of public criticism if he doesn't do much. The inner demon clan is eager to stand out, and the result is the tragic ending." Not only Luo Qiantuo, Bhimachitara also did not understand this decision. He looked at Luo Hu, who was slightly half a body ahead of them.
Why do we still do this when we have learned from the past?
Although the Asura clan is said to have four great Shura kings, Rahu was the first to become the Shura king and the one who has been practicing for the longest time.
What's more important is that the other three Shura Kings have all challenged him and were defeated head-on by Luo Hu.
Therefore, he has extremely domineering decision-making power among the Asura clan.
The decision to launch an all-out attack was made by him, and he overcame all objections, ultimately turning the decision into an offensive.
"Didn't the lessons learned from the Heart Demon Tribe tell us that even if a region is faced with the end of decline, only a few sects from the human race will lend a helping hand?" Luo Hu said calmly.
"In the battle of Zhongling, Jian Zong lost half of their manpower. Is it possible that they can send the remaining half of their manpower to support Guangling Pass this time? Can they still defend Yumen Pass?"
"If Jian Zong doesn't come, what do other little fishes and shrimps mean?"
"But, what about the rear?" Luo Qiantuo asked hesitantly.
The so-called target of public criticism refers not only to the external enemy of the human race, but also to those within the demon race.
No one knows whether other holy demons will take advantage of the opportunity.
"If other demons really take advantage of every opportunity, then fight on multiple fronts."
"We Asuras have been born warriors since we were born, so why are we afraid of war?"
"The war in the rear is just about spending lives. Is half a million enough? If not, then one million! Is it possible that they can use all their troops for internal consumption?" Luo Hu said expressionlessly.
"Even if we consume one million troops, as long as Guangling Pass is captured from the front, the losses will not be worth mentioning."
"Is the price too high..." Bhimachitra hesitated, but he still couldn't understand why Rahu insisted on being so impulsive when there was obviously a safer way.
If Boya had this idea, he wouldn't be surprised. He is just a brainless guy.
But Luo Hu is clearly the one with the deepest thoughts among the four of them. It's hard to see through. Why did he make such a "bad move" decision?
Luo Hu did not explain any more, he just kept looking in the direction of the demonic tide, looking north.
That's human territory.
Then, he smiled ferociously.
In the human realm, there is also a "person" who raises his head at the right time and looks south.
As if feeling something, he also laughed.
Equally ferocious.
