Chapter 1332: The Ancient Earth City
"There's something going on up ahead! Hurry, let's go check it out!"
Sensing the chaotic energy fluctuations, Huo Yang and the others became even more excited and quickened their pace.
After a dozen breaths of time, two massive legion murderous qi appeared in the line of sight of Su Jingzhen's group. One was an icy blue long blade, while the other was a beastly murderous qi - a blazing fiery fox.
"Judging by these two legion murderous qi, it seems to be a battle between a legion from the Heavenly Water Family and one from our Divine Flame Family. We've arrived just in time."
As Huo Yang spoke with excitement, the Demon Warrior Legion's murderous qi dragon suddenly condensed. They charged towards the battlefield at maximum speed.
By the time they arrived, the fiery fox had already been pushed back repeatedly by the icy blue blade and was on the verge of collapsing.
The blade exuded the might of a sxith stage Demon General Realm cultivator, while the fiery fox was only at the fifth stage level.
Under such overwhelming power, unless there were any surprises, this legion of the Divine Flame Family was bound to be destroyed here.
"It seems to be Elder Huo Ling from the fifth branch. It's fortunate that we arrived here on time; otherwise, she would have surely fallen victim to the Heavenly Water Family," Huo Yang remarked.
At this moment, the Demon Warrior Legion's murderous Qi Dragon was spotted by the two battling legions.
The members of the Divine Flame Family were overjoyed, while the Heavenly Water Family Legion wasted no time in retreating frantically after abandoning their attack on the fiery fox.
"Is that the Demon Warrior Legion? What oppressive power!"
"How could we have encountered the Demon Warrior Legion here? Shouldn't they still be in the Desolate Zone? I clearly saw them enter through the entrance of the Desolate Zone."
"Retreat quickly! Regardless of whether they're truly at the ninth stage of the Demon General Realm, they're not someone our Ice Blade Legion can contend with."
The commander of the Heavenly Water Family's Ice Blade Legion paled drastically. He lacked the courage to even engage the Demon Warrior Legion.
The Demon Warrior Legion, however, had no intention of wasting words with them. From afar, they unleashed a murderous qi energy ball that roared toward the enemy.
The immense, terrifying power instantly exploded.
"Not good, block it!" the Heavenly Water Family core disciple leading the Ice Blade Legion screamed shrilly.
The Ice Blade Legion barely managed to unleash a blade strike infused with the Legion's murderous Qi at the energy ball. However, their blade strike was only at the Demon General Realm's fifth stage - far inferior to the Demon Warrior Legion's half-step Demon King Realm power.
The moment the energy ball erupted, their blade strike vanished into nothingness. The residual force, its power undiminished, crashed into every member of the Ice Blade Legion.
A series of pitiful screams followed as the entire Ice Blade Legion was torn to shreds. Only a few Demon Sage Realm cultivators remained, struggling for their lives.
In just a single strike, a sixth stage Demon General Realm Legion had been obliterated.
Such was the current strength of the Demon Warrior Legion.
"This is... this is half-step Demon King Realm-level power!"
"Has the Demon Warrior Legion grown so strong? Didn't they say... didn't they say that they were only at the Demon General Realm ninth stage level?"
Seeing this scene, the previously beleaguered Fiery Fox Legion was completely stunned.
"With such strength, the Demon Warrior Legion has already sealed the fate of the Heavenly Water Family in this trial," murmured one of the members of the Fiery Fox Legion.
"..."
Amidst the Fiery Fox Legion's exclamations, their leader, Huo Ling, dispelled the legion's murderous qi.
Then, wearing a red dress and possessing a breathtaking beauty, she stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Huo Yang.
"Thank you, Miss Huo Yang, for saving us!"
Even though they both belonged to the Divine Flame Family and Huo Ling's cultivation was stronger than Huo Yang's, she was merely a core disciple of the fifth branch and held no comparison to Huo Yang.
"Elder Huo Ling, there's no need for such formalities. Since we are from the same Divine Flame Family, the Heavenly Water Family is our common enemy. Whenever we encounter them, they must be destroyed," Huo Yang said as she helped Huo Ling up.
She then asked, "Why were you ambushed here, Elder Huo Ling? Do you know if there are other Heavenly Water Family legions in this region?"
Hearing this, Huo Ling smiled bitterly.
"We first entered the Earth-Level Region and immediately sought to head to the Ancient Earth City to search for opportunities. Along the way, we encountered the Ice Blade Legion.
When the Heavenly Water Family ran into us-a group weaker than them-they naturally wouldn't let us go.
As for which legions of the Heavenly Water Family came here, I honestly don't know. There should be many around the Ancient Earth City, but it's not far from here."
Huo Ling didn't provide much useful information.
Huo Yang then said, "In that case, Elder Huo Ling, you can lead the Fiery Fox Legion to join us and go to Ancient Earth City or look for opportunities nearby. In an hour's time, there won't be any Heavenly Water Family Legions left in the Earth-Level Region."
Huo Yang's tone carried an air of certainty.
Huo Ling paused before nodding happily.
Being allowed to follow the Demon Warrior Legion into the Ancient Earth City was the best outcome she could hope for. With such a powerful Legion by her side, she felt an overwhelming sense of security.
The Demon Warrior Legion then absorbed all the remaining murderous qi scattered in the void. You Yue could sense that the murderous qi dragon was continuing to grow, even if at a limited rate.
The Demon Warrior Legion and the Fiery Fox Legion proceeded directly toward Ancient Earth City. Along the way, they encountered several other legions, such as those under the War Heaven Demon Sect and the Nine Dragons Demon Sect.
These groups bore them no ill will, so although You Yue was eager to act, she restrained herself.
Soon, a massive city appeared before them.
Its size was comparable to the previous Ancient Desolate City, though it was similarly dilapidated. However, the energy barrier surrounding the Ancient Earth City had already been shattered.
From inside the city, wild and sharp energy fluctuations erupted intermittently.
Obviously, someone had already obtained treasures inside, and a battle had broken out.
The eyes of Su Jingzhen, Huo Yang, and You Yue gleamed with anticipation.
"Let's hurry inside! Kill all the Heavenly Water Family legions!"
