Chapter 1002: Invasion
“I will naturally advance with everyone!”
After seeing the gazes of Sacred Lord Purple Crow and Sacred Lord Fresh Flowers, Fang Yuan shuddered in his heart.
He knew that he did not manage to deceive the eyes of these two Netherheavens.
Moreover, he would attract too much attention if his opinion was from the others.
“Great! We shouldn’t delay further. Let’s start now!”
Sacred Lord Fresh Flowers was a decisive person and would not suffer a loss easily. She was going to take revenge immediately.
Even Fang Yuan could not help praising her in his heart. Her timing was rather good.
First of all, Sun Shengru escaped with serious injuries, and it would be impossible for that world to have a second guardian in such a short period of time.
Moreover, the vitality of the World of Confucian was greatly damaged now. It was absolutely the best time to go!
Since Sacred Lord Fresh Flowers is willing to give up most of the power of souls in that world, it seems like she’s truly determined to have it devoured!
“Wait!” A Demon God suddenly shouted as the Demon Gods reached the gate. “After opening the seal, is Sacred Lord not afraid that Sun Shengru will take this opportunity to escape back to the World of Confucian?”
“Hehe… If Sun Shengru can escape under the watchful eyes of so many Demon Gods, then that is his ability!”
Sacred Lord Fresh Flowers said arrogantly, “I’ll personally guard this gate!”
“In that case, I have nothing else to say!”
The other Demon Gods exchanged gleeful glances, exploded into various energies, and rushed through the gate.
This is the standard way for a Demon God to descend. Open a channel and enter with their true body. Much more dangerous than Dream Master techniques! Fang Yuan thought in his heart as he chuckled and followed.
…
Poof!
A strange space passage appeared after crossing the gate.
This was a secret method that twisted the endless distance in the chaos like a wormhole to connect directly to the World of Confucian.
After walking through the passage, a strange world appeared before Fang Yuan’s eyes.
The entire world seemed to be enveloped by a layer of white light that exuded a weak feeling at this time.
“It was first plundered fiercely before losing its guardian. There was also the destruction the Sacred Lord Fresh Flowers caused. Now, it finally has to face the attacks of many Demon Gods… This world is as good as dead!
“Keke…” Sacred Lord Purple Crow laughed. Taking the lead, he transformed into a weird purple bird and utterly destroyed the membrane of the World of Confucian with a flutter.
The other Demon Gods followed closely behind with all kinds of powerful auras!
…
Outside a town.
The original beautiful scenery was no longer what it was.
Fires were everywhere, the ground cracked open, and even the well water became muddy.
This was the result of a series of natural and man-made disasters.
“Quick! Stop it!”
“It’s the last demon! It can’t run!”
A few determined guards cooperated with tacit understanding and forced a Demon Spirit to a dead end. “Hurry up and invite the Confucian scholar!”
Martial arts could only be considered ordinary in this world, but there was a magical power known as Righteousness, which could also be called the Righteous Qi of Heaven and Earth. It was a direct manifestation of the power of heaven and earth.
Humans were the supreme beings. If they could open the light of wisdom in their heart, they could cultivate Righteousness and use it for their own purposes.
These types of people were known as Confucian scholars, and they were the top class of people in this world.
Confucian scholars were divided into Confucian Students, Confucians, Confucian Teachers, Grandmasters, and Confucian Saints.
Even the lowest-ranking Confucian Students could activate their Righteousness and perform all kinds of incredible feats. The legendary Confucian Saints even had the power to change the world!
This time, when the Mental Demons had invaded the World of Confucian, all of the Confucian scholars had united together under the leadership of Sun Shengru. Finally, they took advantage of a certain opportunity to hold the Grand Festival of Heaven and Earth to destroy two great demons, ending the disaster.
At this point, it was nothing more than cleanup.
Even so, each team had a Confucian student at the very least.
“Roar!”
The demon looked like a black dog larger than a calf, and it had a mouthful of sharp fangs.
It lunged forward in an aggressive attack as soon as the guards spoke.
Swoosh!
Light flashed, and three black moon arcs glided across.
Pupu!
Even with their armor, the first few guards split into pieces. Blood and organs sprayed out.
“Don’t risk it!” a guard shouted. “Flying Geese Formation!”
Although they might not be Confucian scholars, they had trained their martial arts to the highest level. Their armor was also enhanced with the Qi of Righteousness, attracting the greatest amount of the Demon Spirit’s firepower, and could hold out for a period of time.
Even so, it was still dangerous.
Bang!
After another collision, their weapons shattered, and desperation appeared in their eyes.
“It really… is a demon!” At that moment, a young voice came. “There is righteousness in heaven and earth, and it is awe-inspiring!”
Buzz!
Suddenly, a layer of white light appeared on the armor of the guards. The light was almost substantial.
“Ha! Seven Slaughter Array!”
He burst out, drew a long blade, and flew forward with six other armored guards. “Kill!”
“Roar!”
The demon dog pounced as well, but this time, the white light blocked its sharp claws and teeth. Several steel blades slid into its body without hesitation.
“Back!”
The team moved back but still guarded against the giant hound lying in front of them.
The fresh wound on the demon dog had no blood oozing out. Instead, it had a trace of black gas with a weird smell floating out.
“The vitality of the demons is extremely strong, and it is difficult to destroy them completely. They also often have the ability to possess things… They will attach themselves to the people around them if we kill them directly. This was the painful lessons we learned previously!”
A seemingly talented young man in a blue shirt came forward. “Only Righteousness can completely destroy it!”
He held an ancient scroll in hand and flicked his sleeve up gently. A white light containing impressive Righteousness appeared.
The black demon dog screamed under the white light. Its body was shrinking while the black gas dissipated.
In the end, there was no trace left except for a dark shadow on the ground.
“All right. After this demon dog, all the Demon Spirits in this area should have been wiped out!”
The leader sighed and bowed toward the Confucian scholar. “Thank you for saving us!”
“No problem. We have the duty to help too!” The young Confucian scholar smiled with the temperament of a gentleman.
In this world, Confucian scholars were the noblest professions. They were truly the best. They were widely respected as long as they were scholars. Once they passed the exams to become formal Confucian scholars, their status would be extraordinary, and they would have many privileges.
Those Confucian scholars upheld the Sage’s words and deeds. They were noble gentlemen, and their morality was widely praised.
“The demons won’t be able to lay a finger on my world as long as righteousness persists!”
The Confucian scholar looked firm.
However, a terrible shock came before the guards showed any expressions.
Everyone swayed unsteadily in the severe earthquake. The sky dimmed as though the end of the world was coming.
“This is…” The young Confucian scholar raised his head and looked up at the sky. “The Tengu eats the sun. A great ominous sign! Hasn’t my world suffered enough, Heavens?”
Unfortunately, the will of all the Demon Gods would not change because of him.
All the Grandmasters of the World of Confucian looked up in that instant. Some even vomited blood.
“The Heavens want us to perish!”
“The Confucian Saint has yet to return from his battle, but there’s another wave of demons invading!”
“Hold on! We have to hold on until the Confucian Saint returns!”
…
In a certain academy, a few old men with white hair and child-like faces gathered, looking dignified. “Even if we exhaust our cultivation, we can not let a second wave of demons appear!”
Rumble!
White pillars of light rose straight to the sky and actually raised the black cloud covering the city by a meter!
No ordinary Grandmaster could do this. It had to take a half-Saint!
Whoosh!
Countless lightning emerged, forming a portal in the black cloud.
Numerous bulges appeared, as though various beings were striking from behind.
With each impact, the black cloud lowered, causing the Confucian Teachers’ and Grandmasters’ faces to lose color.
“Impossible… This seal was personally strengthened by the Confucian Saint himself before he left, and it has our support… Our Righteousness can draw upon the power of heaven and earth. This is a seal on the world, so how can it crumble this way?”
The Grandmasters and half-Saints could not believe it.
The invasion last time was totally unexpected. Countless Demons had poured in once the channel opened, and it was too late when the Confucian scholars had reacted.
This time, however, the opponent rushed in along the channel to break the seal forcibly. The difficulty was incomparable.
“Let’s do it! Emerald Blood Heart Pill!”
A half-Saint thumped his own chest and spat out aquamarine blood. He then submerged into white pillars.
“Everyone must die, but let me leave a loyal heart shining in the pages of history!”
The other half-Saints followed suit. At that moment, the Righteous Qi of Heaven and Earth slowly pushed the black cloud back a bit.
Chirp chirp!
A strange cry came just then.
The sealed realm gate seemed to have encountered a terrifying impact, and the white chains above it disintegrated.
The next moment, a huge, strange bird rushed out with a hint of excitement in its eyes while flapping its wings.
Whoosh whoosh!
Black wind howled, and countless saber light fell.
The entire academy died out instantly. Several Grandmasters turned into minced meat at the same time.
