Chapter 5: The Beginning of the Invasion (I)

On August 12, the 427th year of Tianyuan, the first real spatial crack appeared in the sky above the Qixia Realm.

On this day, three hundred and forty-eight monsters poured out of this spatial crack, and the strongest was a small demon hunter, whose strength was about equivalent to that of a Linghai student, who was responsible for guarding a small local sect and killing them all.

On August 13, two more spatial cracks appeared, and they continued to increase every day thereafter.

From August 13 to early September, in just half a month, the number of spatial rifts increased from the initial one to more than 300. The largest spatial crack was three feet long, and from this spatial crack squeezed out a stout and tall minotaur, wielding a flail, and its whole body burned with black flames. It was slashed by a spirit master who arrived in time to "wreak havoc" on the land for a cup of tea.

At this time, the Hongmeng monster has not yet shown enough power to subvert the world, but the increasing cracks, and the increasingly powerful monster have shown the trend of the future. Maybe it won't be long before the real horror will appear.

September 18.

An eighteen-zhang long spatial crack appeared, and four shape-level bone demons suddenly emerged from this spatial crack, because they happened to appear in a remote place, the local sect was weak, and they couldn't stop it. It wasn't until half a day later that Fang Yizhong's sect sent four real people to kill them.

On September 29, a spatial crack appeared in the sky above Bincheng, and more than 3,000 monsters poured out of it. This is by far the largest number. A large number of monsters wreaked havoc in Bincheng, and a large number of mortals who stayed in this city because they were reluctant to leave their homes were killed, and blood flowed like a river, becoming the first city in the Qixia realm to be washed in blood.

Although Tang Zheng opened the Pinghai Baju Mountain in time to destroy the demon army, there were still heavy casualties in the city.

This is also the first time that Tang Zheng has activated Pinghai Bazhong Mountain, which took a moment and thirty-two spirit stones.

From this day on, monsters began to appear as an organization, which means that on the other side of the world, the demons have begun to truly coalesce.

On October 7, a twenty-four-zhang long spatial crack appeared in the South China Sea, and a team of flame demons poured out of it. The Flame Demon is a monster ranked fifty-two in the Magic Codex, and its combat power is extremely strong, even surpassing the monsters ranked ten higher than it, but it has two Achilles' heels. One can't fly, and the other can't water.

As soon as the two thousand Flame Demons entered the human world, they fell into the sea, and before they could resist, they all drowned in the sea and fed the sharks.

It's the day of the great victory of mankind.

October 20th.

In the sky above Yuecang Mountain in the north of Qixia, a spatial crack appeared and then disappeared, and only one monster appeared from the crack.

Bloodseeker.

Blood demons are already considered to be the upper layers of the food chain in the Hongmeng realm, and in a sense, they have begun to break away from the title of monsters, and they should be called demons. The biggest difference between demons and monsters is intelligence. They can think like people, they can learn, they can progress. Monsters have an innate level, which is extremely difficult to break through, but demons are different, they can cultivate, and there will be different levels of high and low.

This Blood Demon is a Purple Mansion level existence, and it is also the first Purple Mansion to enter the Qixia Realm. When it entered the Qixia Realm, it changed into a human with a cruel smile. Apparently it knew that its own strength alone was not enough to make waves, so it had to hide first and then secretly hunt humans.

Under normal circumstances, this Blood Fiend would be enough to cause great trouble to humans. In the previous Hongmeng Tribulation, every time the demons mixed in, it would bring great chaos to the human race, and it was difficult for the human race to find them.

This time, though, things are different.

As soon as this blood demon entered the Qixia Realm, it was perceived by Tang Zheng.

The next moment, in the sky of Yuecang Mountain, a thundercloud appeared, as if it was a catastrophe in the last days, and thick thunderbolts blasted towards the unlucky blood demon. The blood demon was also very strong, and he withstood the eighteen thunderbolts, but he still died on the nineteenth.

On that day, Pinghai Yae Mountain was partially opened twice, and one hundred and forty-eight spirit stones were consumed.

It's early November.

At this time, a large number of spatial cracks appeared in the Qixia Realm almost every day, and some cracks even began to connect with each other, forming larger cracks, and the monsters that came out of them became stronger and stronger.

Moxi Tianbarren Ridge, noon.

This is a lonely barren mountain, uninhabited for hundreds of miles.

On the empty mountain, a ball of light appeared inexplicably.

At first, it was the size of a fist, then it grew bigger and bigger, and gradually it became a door of light.

The door of light flickered violently and gradually stabilized, and it stood on the ridge, and what appeared behind the door was an endless darkness.

A large number of monsters began to walk out from behind the door.

For the first time, the monster no longer entered through the spatial rift, but through the spatial gate.

The biggest difference between the two is that the latter is generated by the power of supreme supernatural powers. With the help of the weakening of the space barrier, the powerful demons can create their own space gates to shuttle back and forth. Compared with the spatial rift, its biggest advantage is that it can control the location of its appearance by itself, and there is no need to worry about crashing into the hands of human power before it comes.

Unlike the relatively single monsters in the past, the monsters that come out of the back of the door are obviously more varied, but they are more organized.

After entering the Qixia Realm, these monsters did not immediately rush into the human world and slaughter, but began to cut wood, collect stones, refine metal, and then build a city on the ground.

Some of them even went around collecting resources, and some demons with strong intelligence used these resources to start arranging formations in the place where the city was built.

Yes, the demons also know the formation, although due to the scarcity of resources, they know very little about the formation, but in the unique environment, the demons also have their own methods to create.

Some weak monsters were summoned and killed, and the blood with a strong sulfur smell exuded a strong demonic nature, becoming the best material for the formation of the army, and with the city-building project, they began to build their own fortresses in the human world.

After all, it is an attack that will last for a hundred years, and it is always difficult to fight without a stronghold.

It is precisely for this reason that as an early attacker, most of the demon powers will choose hidden places. Although the human cultivators had figured out the habits of the demons in the tens of thousands of years of confrontation and had a countermeasure, it was still extremely difficult to supervise the entire world.

Normally, more than half of the demons who secretly invade can successfully build their own fortresses. Although these fortresses will eventually be destroyed by humans, they have already fulfilled their purpose of delaying and distracting human cultivators.

But this time, the demon power who invaded the Qixia Realm was obviously lucky. Even if it chose to be in the sparsely populated Heavenly Desolate Mountains, it still didn't hide from Tang Tribulation, after all, Pinghai Bazhong Mountain was a top-level Great Immortal Array for the purpose of sensing the origin, unless it was the same existence as Tang Tribulation, it didn't want to hide it from his ears and eyes.

Just one day later, this demon army was surrounded and suppressed by three large sects.

Tang Zheng did not use the Pinghai Yaeshan, but solved them cleanly with the help of the hands of cultivators, and then activated the Pinghai Yaeshan, reducing the consumption to the lowest limit. As for the demon power, before the spatial gate could grow strong enough to accommodate him, he was destroyed, and he could only let out an angry and violent roar into the bustling human world.

Another half a month has passed, and the space barrier is getting weaker and weaker.

More spatial cracks, spatial gates appeared everywhere in the Qixia Realm, and their frequency and intensity far exceeded any Hongmeng invasion that the Qixia Realm had ever experienced. This is also normal, the world is bigger, the strength is stronger, and the demons encountered will only be more.

But all the spatial gates were destroyed by Tang Zheng's troops without exception.

According to the previous invasion experience, by this time of Hongmeng's invasion, human beings should have been exhausted. A large number of mortals have been killed, resources have been plundered, some cultivators have been killed in battle, countless demons have lurked and raided everywhere, at least two fortresses have been established, and at least four fortresses are being built. The human world should be in a situation of smoke and fire everywhere, wailing everywhere, mourning everywhere, blood and gunpowder everywhere......

But now, none of that is happening.

Pinghai Yaeyama's powerful detection ability turned the originally pervasive sneak attacks, surprise attacks, and surprise attacks into ridiculous and clumsy fueling tactics, and under the dispatch of Tang Zheng, one monster after another was exterminated.

Not a single monster has completed its lurking, not a single fortress has been successfully established, not even one is under construction, and even human cultivators have almost no casualties.

A large number of demon life, however, dissolved under the mana of Pinghai Yaju Mountain, turning into the most primordial power, providing continuous support for the further improvement of this great immortal array.

It's early December.

The top of the snow-capped mountains in the north of the country.

A spatial rift spawns out of thin air.

From behind the crack emerged two large hands, each the size of a millstone, with inky scales on them. Just grabbed the spatial crack and pulled it to both sides, and the crack began to expand, indicating that the owner of these hands not only had powerful mana, but also at least an existence in the entrance space.

As the crack widened, a huge head squeezed out from behind the crack, followed by a hundred-foot-tall body. Such a huge true body means that if this step is a few special races, it is a demon who has cultivated to reach the Sendai level.

This demon clan is still crowding, its true body is too powerful, so that it is not easy to pass through this spatial crack, this is still how fast he can enter the Dao space, and if it is replaced by other demons, I am afraid that it will be even more difficult to enter.

After struggling for a while, this demon finally squeezed most of his body into the Qixia Realm, and at this time, it can be seen that it is a demon with a lizard-like head, but a mouth is extraordinarily large, and the whole body is covered with scales.

At this moment, while squeezing, he muttered: "The time has not come, forcibly enter, if those human cultivators find out and block it again, and they can't enter or retreat, Lao Tzu will be miserable." Say that the situation here is different, and it needs to be investigated, and it is clear that Lao Tzu is sent to death!"

The more I thought about it, the more worried I became, and I accelerated to break through the crack again.

At this time, most of its huge body had passed through the crack, and only its legs had not yet come over, as long as it tried harder, it should be passed.

Just then, a voice rang out: "Need help?"

The Lizarddemon froze.

Looking up, I saw that three figures had appeared not far away, each of which was a Sendai level.

The lizard demon felt a chill in his heart, swallowed his saliva and said, "Damn, it's over." ”
