Chapter 1519: Devil Domain's New Entrance
The Ziling Sect and the fox race had long been connected through teleportation formations. After gathering his people, Xiang Shaoyun went straight to the Fox Range with the teleportation formation.
Many of the fox race's Saint Realm elders came out to welcome Xiang Shaoyun when they learned of his arrival. As Hu Meihui had just completed her seclusion, she also rushed over to meet Xiang Shaoyun.
The fox race was innately talented temptresses. As the fox princess, her allure was incomparable. When she moved, her slender body emanated endless temptation. Her tender eyes seemed to constantly ripple with emotions and could cause countless people to be starstruck.
After gaining the eight-tailed bloodline, Hu Meihui had become even more talented in cultivation. After a period of training under the fox ancestor, she reached peak Sovereign Realm and wasn't too far away from the Saint Realm.
She ignored Yu Caidie and Devil Concubine, who were following Xiang Shaoyun, and jumped into his arms. She said, "Husband, you're finally here to see me."
Clear grief could be heard from her voice, as though she was a wife who had been waiting for her husband to return for years, a grief that could cause anyone to feel saddened. Yu Caidie and Devil Concubine wore unsightly expressions as they cursed inwardly, What a womanizer!
They knew that Xiang Shaoyun had many women, but they still couldn't avoid being jealous when they saw him being intimate with other women.
Xiang Shaoyun softly patted Hu Meihui's back and said, "Am I not here now? The world is in chaos. The fox race needs to get ready to protect yourselves as well. Do be careful."
"I know. We have long prepared ourselves. If we have no choice, we'll just retreat to the Ziling Sect," said Hu Meihui as she rubbed a certain plump part of her body against Xiang Shaoyun's arm, causing Xiang Shaoyun's blood to stir.
"Alright. I'm heading to the Dusk Dynasty to suppress the devils. I'll come meet you again after I'm done with my mission," Xiang Shaoyun returned to the main topic.
"I want to go with you!" said Hu Meihui without any hesitation.
"You want to come as well?" Xiang Shaoyun appeared somewhat doubtful.
"Of course. I'm currently stuck at a bottleneck. This will be a good opportunity for me to temper myself so that I can break through. Also, I want to stick with you," said Hu Meihui.
"Sure, let's go together," said Xiang Shaoyun with a nod.
He did not want his women to be mere decorations that could only look pretty. Thus, he naturally approved of Hu Meihui's attempt to grow. And thus, the group headed to a remote location within the Dusk Dynasty's borders.
At present, a large number of humans had gathered there. All of them were working with all their strength against the devil invasion. The devils seemed determined to break through the defensive perimeter set by the humans. Many powerful devils had appeared, creating massive destruction in the landscape. This place was none other than the Devil Domain's new entrance.
A God from the Diabolic Dragon Clan had appeared and swallowed tens of thousands of humans alive, forcing the Dusk Dynasty's imperial uncle to show up. The imperial uncle proved himself worthy of being someone who was once on the Saintly Forest Ranking. His combat prowess was incredible, and he fought three diabolic dragons by himself before killing one of them. His exploits successfully increased the morale on humanity's side.
But when even stronger experts of the Diabolic Dragon Clan showed up, even the imperial uncle started to have a hard time stopping them. To make matters worse, there was no reinforcement from the other dynasties. Even the ones who bothered to help only sent a small number of decently strong cultivators who would be helpless before an army of devils.
If it weren't for the Guardians Guild, the Dusk Dynasty would have already fallen. One could say that the Dusk Dynasty had suffered greatly. Even if they could preserve their dynasty during the devil invasion, they probably wouldn't be able to avoid the fate of being swallowed up by the other dynasties.
After all, apart from their issues with the devil invasion, their imperial teacher had defected as if to add hail to snow. The greatest weakness of humans was their inability to work together against external enemies. Many would choose to protect themselves, giving the devils an opportunity to invade. If humanity could stay fully united, no disaster would be unsolvable.
From sheer numbers alone, there would be a human genius born at all times. Although countless geniuses had perished over the years, there were also many who had managed to reach far in their cultivation. Thus, humanity as a whole shouldn't be afraid of foreign invasion.
Unfortunately, humanity was divided, and everyone only fought for themselves. Thus, it was hard to protect the entire dominion.
With his women, trusted aides, the wolf guards, and some Ziling Sect elites, Xiang Shaoyun arrived at the new entrance with a group of 300.
When they arrived, they found that the devils had corrupted the surrounding ambient energy. Numerous devils dotted the sky while countless humans were fighting against the devils. Blood and broken limbs flew everywhere, presenting a dreadful scene.
The Dusk Dynasty's army of over a hundred thousand soldiers surrounded the area, launching wave after wave of attacks at the devils. Due to the limitation of the entrance's size, only a limited number of devils could invade at one time. If the devils could open an even bigger entrance, the humans would have no way of stopping their invasion.
The defensive perimeter's biggest crisis was that the devils might break free in separate batches and spread the war even farther. Some of the humans residing nearby had already moved away out of fear.
In fact, on Xiang Shaoyun's way to the entrance, he had encountered many such people who were in the process of migration. Some of these migrating people were even shameless enough to steal from the refugees of war, causing Xiang Shaoyun to look down on them. These thieves were the scums of humanity and were even worse than the devils.
Xiang Shaoyun and his group were in no rush to enter the battleground. Rather, they picked a random location to settle down. The chosen location would serve as their camp, a place for them to recuperate in between battles. They had just finished settling down when a group of imperial soldiers approached them.
"Who are you? Since you're here, why aren't you helping us fight the devils?" demanded the leader unhappily.
As far as he was concerned, anyone nearby should rush into the battlefield instead of staying at the fringe doing nothing.
"Scram!" berated Devouring Ghost coldly.
He then released his Great Saint aura, causing all the soldiers to drop onto the ground.
