Chapter 1316 – Chapter 121 The Arrival Of The Dark Army

Chapter 121 The Arrival of the Dark Army

In the city, there were endless martial artists, reinforced buildings, and bustling streets. The flowing lights in the air were all transformed from the flying martial artists in the city, who seemed to be very busy.

From time to time, a team of female saber warriors from the Saber-drawing Sect could be seen patrolling the city. At the same time, there were also soldiers stationed in the air. They were eagle-like demonic beasts, only the size of sparrows. Yet they were extremely fast, even at the level of a God Realm master.

Other than the female saber warriors of the Saber-drawing Sect, the other warriors were on their guard all the time. They could react immediately the moment the enemies attacked. It was a force not to be underestimated.

The entire city was on high alert.

The city was filled with a tense atmosphere as if the peace at this moment was a foreshadow of the storm.

…

After passing through the city gate, the old man casually found a place to sit down, and his luggage was casually placed aside. Then, he looked up at the man in cyan and said with a smile, “Young man, thank you. I’ll stay here.”

This was the place that Tianyuan City had specially reserved for those refugees. It was a large square with a radius of several miles. At this moment, there were people everywhere. It was crowded and noisy, like a downtown.

Most of these people were old, weak, sick, and disabled. Many of them even had their hands and feet broken. Their clothes were stained with blood, and they howled without end. It was obvious what sort of calamity they’d suffered earlier.

As for the young men who had come to Tianyuan City, almost all of them had joined the forces of Tianyuan City and the Saber-drawing Sect. Some of them did their best and volunteered to help the Saber-drawing Sect maintain order. Therefore, very few young men stayed in this place.

“Old man, please stay here. I shall leave now…” The man in cyan just said a few words to the old man. He then left the place and went to the center of Tianyuan City.

It was an extremely wide street. Although there were buildings all around, they were not closed, allowing people to enter and exit freely.

This was the place where all the martial artists gathered, as well as the backbone of Tianyuan City. There were not only martial artists from the Saber-drawing Sect but also those from other places. Although the place was crowded, it was in order. After all, the people here would be the main force against the dark army. If they did not have order, how could they resist the dark army?

A large group of people had gathered in the middle of the street. They had all kinds of figures, wore all kinds of clothes, and had different appearances. Their cultivation levels were different. The weakest among them were only in the Martial King Realm. The strongest among them were in the Martial Demigod Realm and the Martial Immortal Realm. At this moment, they were densely gathered together in groups of three or five, discussing something.

The man in cyan came here and looked around.

The grey cat on his shoulder yawned. After glancing around, it closed its eyes in a listless manner.

The man in cyan did not pay attention to the gray cat. He strolled around and listened to the words of the surrounding martial artists to collect some new information about the continent.

“The dark forces are getting bigger and bigger now. I don’t know when we can really beat them back. It is said that in addition to subduing the Feather Clan, they have also breached many major forces in the Central Continent, including the Wave-hearing Pavilion, the Hundred Beast Pavilion, the Cloud Sea Sect, and even the Yan Sect. The forces in other places are suffering miserably.”

“The Heaven Island and the Beast Clan can still resist, and they didn’t suffer heavy losses during this period. In terms of the most miserable forces, it’s the Sea Clan, especially the Ceroman Clan. Almost most of the members of the Sea Clan have been contaminated by that dark force and become their tools. They’ve actually been used to attack their clansmen. Alas, I presume that the people of the Sea Clan are doing worse than us now…”

“Yes, but I really miss the peaceful times in the past. Where did Imperator Ding go? Why didn’t he beat back this dark force? If he had taken action, how could this evil force be so rampant…”

In Tianyuan City, in addition to some comments about the dark forces and the sects that had fallen, some people were talking about the new generation of heroes with shining eyes.

“Hey, hey, the Child of Thunder Light displayed his might recently. Have you all heard about it?”

“Now there are so many communication tools in the Heaven Path world, and such a big thing has happened. Any big event on the entire continent will soon reach the ears of martial artists from all over the world. I’ve long heard of that news…”

“Tut-tut, you can imagine how powerful they are just by hearing the news. After defeating the dark army, they will definitely become the new peak masters of our Heaven Path world. Maybe there will be a new imperator among them…”

“A new imperator? That’s possible. After all, Imperator Ding hasn’t appeared yet. By the way, do you have any news about Imperator Ding?”

“Well, as for this… There are rumors that he was killed by his arch-enemy Ding Tong, but there are also rumors that he is cultivating a peerless magical skill. Once he comes out of secluded cultivation, he can defeat the dark army easily. Some say that he is now guarding the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect and is preparing to take action. Others say that he is now in another Star Area, not in the Heaven Path world. There are many different kinds of news. I don’t know which one is true…”

In addition to these people, there were also a small number of people who looked very calm, and their eyes faintly showed sharpness. They didn’t seem to notice the depression in the atmosphere.

Perhaps it was due to their nature.

It was also possible that they were very confident in their strength. Even if they knew that the dark forces were powerful enemies, they just felt that this was a good opportunity to practice and maybe they could become famous from the war.

All living beings had their own destinies and personalities. Some were content with peace and didn’t care about fame and fortune. Naturally, some enjoyed fame and fortune. In this chaotic world, it might be their chance. Since that was the case, there was no need for them to be afraid.

…

The gray kitten on the shoulder of the man in cyan suddenly opened its eyes and asked in a serious tone, “You haven’t finished cultivating yet. Although there are many martial artists here, there are no Eternal Realm experts. If an Eternal Realm expert from the dark forces descends here, what will you do then?”

This gray kitten was Evil Moon, who also wanted to transform for some reason after seeing Ding Hao change his appearance.

The person it asked was naturally Ding Hao, the man in cyan who had just parted with the old man.

Ding Hao was silent for a moment and then said, “I’ll see if these people can resist the attack first. It would be best if they can. If not, I’ll see what happens. What’s more, you’re here. At most, I’ll ask you to deal with it…”

“Uh, you want me to be your hatchet man? Well, in that case, it’s not a problem for me to take action. After all, you’re my Human Pet. But I have to warn you first. If the other party is too strong, you’ll know what to do then. I’m a little sleepy. Let’s talk about it when the enemy comes…” Evil Moon was quite considerate. After saying that, it stopped talking and continued to sleep.

Looking at Evil Moon snoring again, Ding Hao smiled slightly.

Then, he sighed.

Knowing the current predicament of the major forces on the continent, Ding Hao was also a little anxious, but even so, he did not intend to take action in the real sense for the time being. He could only secretly use his incarnations to help people defeat the dark forces. After all, Ding Tong, his main enemy, had not appeared yet, and he was still cultivating the Mysterious Fighting Method.

Here, one could see four beautiful figures discussing something at the city gate.

They were the Saber Mistress and the elders of the Saber-drawing Sect.

Ding Hao also saw the four women. From some martial artists next to him, he also knew the identities of the four women, but they were not the female disciples of the first Saber Mistress. After all, thousands of years had passed. The status of the four female disciples in the past had long been different. They were already ancestors of the sect.

Ding Hao didn’t pay much attention to it. He found a random place and continued to cultivate the power of the five elements, thinking about the Mysterious Fighting Method.

Many martial artists here were talking about the war, and many of them were practicing all the time, trying to increase their own strength before they met the dark forces. Therefore, it was not surprising for Ding Hao to practice. Moreover, his strength was in the God Realm on the surface now. Although it was not low, it was not worth much attention.

The sky gradually darkened, and torches were set up early in Tianyuan City. There were also beacons and fire platforms in the city to illuminate the whole city. The whole city did not become dark because of the night. Instead, it was unusually bright, and people could even see the city clearly from a kilometer away.

Many martial artists were patrolling the city gate to prevent the sudden attack of the dark forces.

It was getting late, and there was only the sound of the wind blowing around, occasional low breathing, or some quiet conversations.

Although it was quiet all around, most of the martial artists did not dare to relax. On the contrary, they became more vigilant.

Ding Hao sat cross-legged with a peaceful look and continued to practice the Mysterious Fighting Method.

Suddenly, his expression changed. He slowly opened his eyes.

“They’re coming!” With a low voice, his body trembled and floated directly on the city wall. Looking into the distance, he frowned slightly.

Although his cultivation was sealed and so were his Divine Senses, his Divine Senses were many times more sensitive than all the martial artists here because he was practicing the Mysterious Fighting Method.

Some patrolling martial artists also realized something when they saw his expression. They followed his line of sight and looked into the distance. After staring for a long time, their faces suddenly changed and they hurriedly shouted, “The enemies are coming! The enemies are coming!”

As soon as they said that, the city was in an uproar. Countless martial artists flew up to the thick city wall and landed at the city gate. Their expressions were different. Some looked nervous, some were frightened, some were determined, and some were ready to kill.

Thousands of meters away, under the bright moon’s light, clusters of thick black clouds were approaching Tianyuan City quickly. The horrible dark power rolled over, flashing with dark light.

Although they were far away and had not yet approached, many people could already feel the horrible dark power, and they could also faintly hear some howling sounds like the shrieks coming from the abyss.
