Chapter 1372 Bold!
"Even the city lord of Crimson Thunder City doesn't believe you. Is it worth it for the glory of humanity, which has been extinguished for millions of years, and for the continuation of its legacy?"
The starry night was shrouded in blood; the moon tonight was exceptionally bright, yet it carried an eerie crimson hue.
A terrible calamity is imminent.
Strange phenomena appeared in the sky.
This is Heaven's warning to the world, a lament.
Unfortunately.
The moon was deep in the night.
The blood was buried too deep.
Ordinary people cannot see it.
Looking at the stars and moon.
Inhaling the fragrance of flowers carried on the breeze.
Xiao Chen asked himself a question.
From beginning to end.
He never intended to leave.
As previously stated.
I just don't want to see Ke Hei and Ye Hongmei die!
tomorrow.
There will be a life-or-death calamity.
He may be buried in Chi Lei.
I'm not nervous at all.
That's fake.
seriously.
Based solely on a single thought in one's heart.
A tiny, lingering trace of the ashes of glory.
They risked their lives to fight.
How to look.
They all act like idiots!
can.
He is a sword cultivator.
He only sought pleasure and revenge throughout his life, and his mind was at peace.
He is a successor of the Demon-Slaying Sword Sect.
Bearing the mission of their master's sect.
the most important.
He was a human.
They are the inheritors of the torch!
"Oh well, it's fate, why think about it too much!"
The moonlight was tinged with blood, creating an eerie and sinister atmosphere. Xiao Chen lay on the street with his eyes tightly closed.
time flies.
The sky was just beginning to lighten!
unconsciously.
It has arrived at the hour of Mao (5-7 AM).
One more hour.
The demon army is approaching.
Xiao Chen suddenly opened his eyes.
His eyes were like purple lamps.
On the city floor.
Wu Teng gazed at the peaceful demon forest in the distance.
He paced back and forth.
apprehensive.
A strong ominous sign.
It spreads in their hearts.
It is approaching Chen Shi (7-9 AM).
One hour remaining!
If what Xiao Chen said is true.
The blood sacrifice is imminent in the city.
Tens of thousands of demons!
At that time.
Can Crimson Thunder City withstand it?
Although Xiao Chen did not reveal the number of demons that were about to attack the city.
It may involve blood sacrifice.
The number of attacking demons will certainly not be less than ten thousand.
Although Chilei City has 100,000 garrison troops.
However, human cultivators, in terms of both numbers and cultivation level, are far inferior to demons.
In the face of demons.
One hundred thousand defenders.
It's not worth mentioning at all!
"Instead of worrying in vain, let's go down to the city and talk!"
Just then.
A rather familiar voice.
It surged into Wu Teng's heart.
"It's him?"
Wu Teng trembled and looked back into the city. In the dim light of dawn, a figure stood tall on the street, nodding slightly to him.
Facing this young man whom Xin Liang had labeled as an evil cultivator of the Wan Dynasty.
Uteng should have been expelled.
however.
I don't know why.
But as if possessed, he jumped off the city wall.
He rushed to Xiao Chen's side.
The soldiers on the city wall were all startled.
I subconsciously turned around to look.
But when their gazes fell!
on the street.
There was no one there.
"Believe me or not?"
On a street corner, in a shadowy spot, Xiao Chen stared directly into Wu Teng's eyes.
Just now.
He could tell.
Regarding what he said.
Wu Teng was somewhat tempted.
Therefore, I wish to seek their help!
5:00 AM (卯时).
There is one hour left until Chenshi.
After a night.
Everyone is conserving their energy.
Their combat strength is at its peak.
This is why Xiao Chen only contacted Wu Teng at dawn.
Wu Teng gritted his teeth, "I'm just a city patrol commander, how could I possibly handle something this big..."
"This time, the Fire Demon Holy Clan will sacrifice ten cities and send a million troops. Once the defense line collapses, no one will be spared within a radius of ten thousand miles!"
"What? Ten cities?" Wu Teng was stunned.
Sacrificing an entire city in blood is already an utter disaster!
Ten cities!
That would kill millions of lives!
How do you want me to help you?
Seeing the seriousness of the situation, Wu Teng steeled his heart and agreed to help!
What is the highest level of alert measures in Crimson Thunder City?
"The drums of catastrophe!"
The drums of catastrophe sound!
It is a spirit drum formation within Crimson Thunder City.
Once started.
The sound waves soared into the sky.
It will continue for a long time!
The city was filled with life.
All should take heed.
This is the highest level of security measure in Crimson Thunder City.
The Cataclysmic Drum is a crucial instrument in the city.
If it weren't for the calamity that destroyed the city.
It should not be used lightly.
Violators will be punished.
He was convicted of a serious crime.
The past three hundred years.
The drum of catastrophe has remained sealed away.
Never turned on.
The most recent time it was activated was three hundred years ago, when a demon tide descended and thousands of demons invaded.
In order to warn everyone, the previous Lord of Crimson Thunder City had no choice but to activate the drum formation.
Over the past three hundred years, there have been occasional small groups of demons provoking us.
Humans also tend to be tolerant.
The Cataclysmic Drum was not activated.
A full-scale counterattack was launched.
"Activate the Cataclysmic Drum immediately!" Xiao Chen ordered.
Wu Teng hesitated, his brows furrowed. Activating the Calamity Drum without the city lord's order was a serious crime.
Looking into the clear, spring-like eyes of the white-robed youth before him, and thinking of the calamities that the demon blood sacrifice would unleash, he gritted his teeth, nodded heavily, pushed off the ground, and soared into the sky, leaping onto the city tower dozens of meters high, heading towards a giant spirit drum inscribed with crimson lightning.
"Commander Wuteng, no! The Cataclysm Drum must not be activated rashly!"
"Get out of my way! I'll take full responsibility for all the consequences!"
Amidst the astonished gazes of the armored soldiers.
Wu Teng pushed aside several armored soldiers who came to stop him and raised the crimson spirit hammer that was suspended in the void.
It crashed heavily onto the dark drumhead engraved with the Crimson Thunder emblem.
boom!
The sound waves rolled in.
Red lightning struck from the sky.
A thunderous drumbeat suddenly rang out.
Like a surging river.
Rushing in all directions.
"That's... the Cataclysmic Drum?"
"The drums of catastrophe sound, an unprecedented calamity is imminent!"
"Quickly, to the city wall!"
In a short time.
The entire city was shocked.
Countless figures rushed from ancient houses and palaces.
Many men.
His clothes were disheveled.
Obviously.
Awakening from a deep dream.
More than two million lives in Crimson Thunder City.
Besides chickens, there are also dogs.
Some elderly and infirm people who are unable to get out of bed.
Almost everyone came out.
A peaceful morning.
It was instantly shattered into pieces by the sound of drums and the terrified murmurs of the crowd.
On the empty streets.
Almost instantly.
It was then packed with people.
Almost all civilians.
Their faces were filled with terror.
Even those cultivators with abundant qi and blood.
His brows and eyes were also filled with solemnity.
The drumbeats of catastrophe sounded like crimson thunder.
Within the sound waves.
It also contains the sounds of "catastrophe".
Even though it has not been opened for three hundred years.
The moment the sound rang out, the creatures of Crimson Thunder City recognized it immediately.
Even some highly intelligent, domesticated monsters.
They were all quite frightened.
Fearful as a dog.
"It's all over, everything's over!"
Armored soldiers guarding the drum of catastrophe.
Standing on the city tower.
Looking down at the chaotic, crowded Chilei Street, one can see...
My legs went weak.
He collapsed to the ground.
This is a big deal.
although.
The drummer was Wu Teng.
He could be the drum keeper.
The guards were incompetent.
He too cannot escape his guilt.
"All citizens of Crimson Thunder City, heed my command! The demon race's blood sacrifice is imminent. All those capable of fighting, prepare yourselves and join me in protecting the peace of Crimson Thunder!"
Wu Teng took a deep breath and roared at the crowd below, which was as excited as a mountain and a sea.
at this point.
He had no way out.
He felt like he was going crazy.
It was all because of a casual remark from a cultivator from the Wan Dynasty whom they had never met before.
He was willing to bear a heavy crime.
Activate the Cataclysmic Drum.
But he always had a gut feeling.
That young man in white is trustworthy.
Furthermore.
Blood sacrifice has too many implications.
He dared not gamble.
After today.
If the blood sacrifice has not yet taken place.
At most, it was his own fault.
He'll just have to accept it.
But what if what the boy said is true?
A blood sacrifice has begun.
Crimson Thunder City was completely unprepared!
That would be a disaster for millions!
The human race has too weak a foundation.
The flame has been extinguished.
We can't take this kind of turmoil anymore!
"What... blood sacrifice?"
"A demon is about to sacrifice blood...to my...Crimson Thunder City?"
In an instant, fear, like a ferocious beast, devoured everyone's hearts and souls. Many cowardly individuals even fainted and slumped against the shoulders of others.
Blood sacrifice!
Although it only contains the two words "lightly".
But it was a catastrophe.
A blood sacrifice is imminent.
Not even a chicken or a dog was spared.
The entire Crimson Thunder City.
It will all turn to blood.
Become a demon among humans!
"Wu Teng, how dare you collude with the evil cultivators of the myriad dynasties to arbitrarily activate the Chaos Drum and spread false demonic messages!"
Just then.
