I Can See Through All Things' Information Chapter 1322 - 805: Outside Demon Suppression City, Surging Demonic Might
Previously on I Can See Through All Things' Information...
High above, Lu Qing soared across an expansive woodland mountain range.
His goal was to locate an ideal spot for closed-door cultivation.
After obtaining a massive haul of Spirit Stones and various treasures,
he wouldn't face shortages of cultivation materials for quite some time.
This presented the perfect chance to transform those assets into true strength.
Yet, while Lu Qing hovered in the air, seeking a natural formation for his seclusion,
a sudden tremor shook his soul, detecting a shift in the world's fate.
This alteration appeared linked directly to him.
Lu Qing felt a jolt of surprise, then quickly pinched his fingers to divine the truth.
With his deep mastery of the "Ziwei Fate Scripture," his deductive abilities had reached a profound level.
Within mere moments, the situation became clear to him.
"Ah, I see. After I wiped out the Holy Alliance's Elders, the news leaked, giving the Demon Clan the chance to assault Human Race lands?"
Enlightenment dawned on Lu Qing, explaining the personal tie to this worldly shift.
Still, it left him irritated.
"Those demons, scheming to exploit the chaos I caused—it's not going to be so simple. If memory serves, there's unfinished business with that Silent Annihilation Demon Venerable, isn't there?"
Lu Qing had never planned to meddle in the Heavenly Origin Great World's inter-race strife.
But with the demons plotting to profit from his actions, he couldn't simply ignore it anymore.
Should the Demon Clan seize Human Race domains, the fates of myriad human beings would tie a thread of karma to him.
Not that such karma would crush him, but he wouldn't let the demons pin the blame on his deeds.
Without delay, Lu Qing stepped forth, distorting the void around him, and disappeared from sight.
At the border zone dividing Human Race and Demon Clan lands,
deep within Human territory by hundreds of miles, a massive city resembling a stronghold was deploying multiple Array Formation Light Screens to shield itself.
Despite the arrays operating at full capacity, the defending cultivators felt no security whatsoever.
They fixed their gazes on the skies beyond the walls, their expressions twisted in horror.
The cause was the throng of demons hovering in the air overhead, enveloped in thick Demonic Qi, defying gravity.
The frontrunners among them radiated a terrifying demonic aura.
Even a brief look could rattle one's soul, stirring the birth of inner demons.
What's more, just earlier, one of those leaders had publicly ripped apart the city's lord—who held Primordial Spirit Five Tribulations strength—right before everyone.
The Vice City Lord, boasting Primordial Spirit Four Tribulations power, met the same gruesome end, devoured alive.
"Why have these demons launched this sudden assault on our Human Race lands? Don't they fear retribution from the Holy Alliance Elders?"
"With four Demon Venerables acting in unison, is the Demon Clan declaring total war on humanity?"
"Hurry and dispatch a plea to Heavenly Saint Peak for Holy Alliance Elder backup!"
"Power up every remaining formation too; if not, we're all doomed!"
Inside the city, the oppressive demonic pressure filled the cultivators with dread, prompting frantic shouts.
Noting the panic etched on the humans' faces, the Silent Annihilation Demon Venerable at the demons' vanguard curled his lips in a vicious grin.
Rather than rush to shatter the defenses, he unleashed Primordial Spirit waves, broadcasting a mighty Divine Soul Transmission that pierced through the city's layered Array Formation Light Screens.
"Hear me, you pathetic human insects within those walls—this Venerable grants you ten breaths to fling open the gates, yield, drop to your knees in submission, and serve as our Demon Clan's thralls, or face merciless slaughter, devouring, and eternal oblivion without rebirth!"
A Demon Venerable's Primordial Spirit might was immensely potent.
The Silent Annihilation Demon Venerable's transmission invaded every cultivator's consciousness inside.
Those below Golden Core Realm, upon receiving it, sensed dark impulses budding in their souls, their spiritual energy spiraling out of control, teetering toward demonic corruption.
In that instant, a commanding voice boomed: "All of you, stay vigilant. This is a Demon Venerable's Divine Soul Transmission—it muddles the mind and drags you down the demon path. Steady your souls; don't let his words deceive you!"
The speaker's tone thundered like divine intervention, carrying a force that steadied and roused the spirit.
It jolted countless cultivators on the brink of mana chaos and mental fog back to clarity, their souls invigorated.
"That's Vice City Lord Yang!"
The city's defenders recognized the voice and the sudden airborne figure within the walls at once.
It was Demon Suppression City's other Vice City Lord, Yang Lei Zheng!
For a moment, morale surged among the cultivators as they urgently circulated their techniques to fortify their minds.
The shock of the surprise assault, which claimed the City Lord and Vice City Lord Lin, had left them disorganized and directionless before.
Yet with Vice City Lord Yang breaking from seclusion, a ray of hope flickered alive.
Vice City Lord Yang commanded flawless Primordial Spirit Four Tribulations prowess, mere inches from the Five Tribulations stage.
Though his level fell short of the outer demons' dread might, bolstered by the city's arrays, Demon Suppression City could withstand a siege.
If they endured until Holy Alliance reinforcements came, victory remained possible!
This realization ignited a fire in the cultivators, spurring them to rally anew.
Meanwhile, Vice City Lord Yang stared outward with a grave look.
Unlike the emboldened crowd below, his spirit brimmed with utter hopelessness.
