Chapter 1005

Inside the demonic matrix, demonic Qi was surging, and a terrifying killing intent was surging.

After ten days of killing, there were no more demons left in the matrix. They were either killed or sent to the outside world. At this moment, there were only humans left in the matrix.

This demonic matrix was very powerful. The demonic blades that flashed from time to time contained super strong single-target attacks. However, they were not concentrated, and the humans could dodge them. It was as if the demons had deliberately left a loophole. They wanted to slowly torture these humans and play them to death.

"Swish." "Swish." "Swish."

Another wave of demonic blades flashed, tearing the space apart. The few humans started another round of dodging.

After all the demonic blades disappeared, another human expert fell down. The others gathered, and there were only five left.

The leader was a man in black. His expression was cold, and his body was covered in dried blood. His cold gaze fell on the other four, and there was a touch of guilt in his eyes. "It's my fault."

"Brother, what are you talking about? We were provoked by your hot blood and took the initiative to come down and kill the enemy. Even if we die, we won't blame you." A man said.

"That's right. If you really want to blame someone, it's that damned spirit body of the Jin family. It's fine if we die, but brother, you're so powerful. In the future, you'll be a great threat to the demons. That damned spirit body of the Jin family actually did nothing."

The third man said, and his voice was cold. "This is a common trick used by the five major powers, eliminating dissidents. Hehe, in front of a great enemy, they are still selfish. It's really disappointing. It's a joke to expect such a family to lead us to kill the demons."

The man in black said, "He must have killed me on the spot. Jin family spirit body, don't worry about him. If we die today, someone will avenge us in the future. Since you all say you're brothers, then let's be brothers. I don't have many brothers, but you three are definitely one of the few. My name is Zhang Haotian."

The other three were obviously stunned, and then they smiled bitterly. After fighting for so long, they rarely talked like this. Usually, they would just give orders to surround and kill. Therefore, after fighting for so many days, they didn't know each other's names.

A slightly taller man said, "Haha, my name is Zhang Ming. I'm from the same family as Brother Zhang Haotian. Although I'm a Xiantian Realm martial artist, I was lucky enough to obtain a Xiantian Realm technique."

"My name is Yuan Mingjue. Although I am a Precelestial martial artist, my strength is not as good as Brother Zhang Ming."

"My name is Ge Pu. I'm an Innate Ranker, and my battle strength is only average."

"My name is Shangguan Yue 'er."

To be able to hold on for so long, none of them were ordinary people. At the very least, they were Xiantian Lords with extraordinary battle prowess.

Zhang Ming laughed heartily and said jokingly: "Shangguan Yue 'er, a good name indeed. Let's call you Yue' er. Yue 'er, we came down because of Brother Haotian's decisiveness in killing. What about you? Don't tell me you've taken a fancy to Brother Haotian?"

Shangguan Yue 'er smiled and said, "We know each other, and came to the Ancient Road to train together."

The other three nodded and smiled. Their smiles were somewhat inexplicable. Zhang Haotian explained, "Yue 'er is the wife of one of my brothers. I just said that if we die in battle, someone will definitely avenge us. I was talking about her husband."

Ge Pu said, "If we really die, it's not the Devil Race's fault. The main culprit is the Jin Family's Spiritual Body."

Shangguan Yue 'er said coldly: "Don't worry, if he knows, he will definitely avenge us."

The three's faces changed, and Yuan Mingjue said: "Don't tell me he can kill the invincible Spiritual Body."

Zhang Haotian said: "He has already killed more than one Spiritual Body."

"More than one Spiritual Body, could it be …"

The three looked at each other, and then their faces changed again as they exclaimed: "Zi Chen, could it be Zi Chen?"

"Hehe, humans, have you rested enough? If you have, let's continue." The Devil Race's voice sounded from outside the array, and another wave of Devil Blades appeared, attacking the five humans.

On the city gate tower, seeing the new wave of attacks from the Devil Race's array, many human cultivators were angry, but they didn't dare to say anything. Among them, there were some hot-blooded warriors who wanted to go down and destroy the enemy, but the people below were examples. Once they went down, they would never have the chance to return, and they would die in battle.

This kind of death was not worth it, so no one went down.

The Jin Family's Spiritual Body had an indifferent expression as he silently looked down. The Devil Race's actions were humiliating the humans, but he didn't know that the various great powers had already reached the point where they wouldn't be shocked by honor or disgrace.

"Our Devil Race's memory of humans is from tens of thousands of years ago, but after tens of thousands of years, the way humans do things still hasn't changed. No matter how urgent the situation is, there is still infighting."

"Humans are cunning and suspicious, and their temperament is like this. We have been accumulating our strength for so many years, but they are still fighting amongst themselves. This time, many humans have retreated from here, and I'm afraid that this is also one of the reasons."

Outside the array, the Devil Race leader coldly snorted. "Humph, let's torture them first, then kill them when we're tired of playing with them."

The Devil Race leader beside him nodded.

At this moment, all the Devil Race members were paying attention to the Devil Array, or looking at the ugly faces of the humans above the city tower, so they didn't notice that a human was approaching from behind.

Zi Chen walked towards the Devil Race. Usually, as long as he didn't release his power, his aura would be completely restrained, and very few people could detect it. He walked step by step, as if he was taking a stroll, but the Devil Race members didn't notice.

The first to detect it was the humans.

In the sky above the city tower, someone saw the human coming from behind the Devil Race. His expression changed, and he immediately exclaimed, "Human, there is a human outside."

"Now that the Devil Race has almost sealed off this place, I didn't expect a human to be able to come here."

Exclamations continued to sound, and some humans pointed at Zi Chen, which naturally attracted the Devil Race's attention. After they turned their heads, they found that a human was less than a hundred meters away from them.

Silently, he was less than a hundred meters away from them, which made the Devil Race members frown. Their eyes and spiritual senses all swept over Zi Chen.

"What are you doing?" Zi Chen didn't stop.

"Human, you are a human." The Devil Race member didn't answer, but asked instead.

Zi Chen also asked, "Why, do I look like a Devil Race member?"

"Human, you really are a human." The Devil Race member's voice turned cold, and then the surrounding Devil Race members quickly surrounded Zi Chen.

These were all Origin Realm Devils, and eight of them came down at once. Obviously, they didn't underestimate Zi Chen.

Zi Chen didn't pay attention to the Devil Race members around him, but looked at the Devil Array in front of him. Although his knowledge of formations wasn't as good as Lv Peng's, he definitely knew a thing or two about formations. He saw the loophole in the formation at a glance, and his gaze followed the loophole to Tianjiao City.

He saw the tightly shut city gate, the Great Barrier Formation, and the human figure in the town before. He understood what was going on.

He couldn't help but shake his head. Obviously, this was another internal conflict.

He felt that it wasn't worth it for the humans in town, but since he'd run into them, he had to take care of them no matter what. As he scanned the area with his spiritual sense, he didn't find any Earth Origin Realm Devils nearby. Of course, even if there were, Zi Chen's spiritual sense wouldn't be able to detect them.

"Kill!" Zi Chen's disregard infuriated the Devil Race, and they gave the order to attack.

Eight Mortal Origin Realm Devils charged at Zi Chen.

Cries of alarm rang out from the city tower once more.

Eight explosions rang out from outside the tower, one after the other. Eight waves of destructive energy surged outside the formation, transforming into eight storms.

Everyone was surprised that such terrifying fluctuations had appeared as soon as the battle began.

But when the eight waves of energy dissipated and they saw that there was only one spear-wielding human left, their surprise turned into shock.

Less than three breaths of time had passed since the explosions had begun, but the human had killed eight Origin Realm Devils in that time.

"Kill!"

"Kill this human!"

However, Zi Chen's display of strength only shocked the Devil Race, not to the point of fear. They naturally couldn't compare to the humans in terms of resources, but they had far more experts than the humans.

Even more Origin Realm Devils charged at Zi Chen, but Zi Chen didn't linger in battle this time. He used his innate skill, Nine Flashes of Lightning, and transformed into a bolt of lightning, dodging several attacks and arriving outside the demonic formation.

The long spear in his hand suddenly swept out, and a Spear Light struck a large black stone. This was the base of the array formation, and there were many lines carved on the black stone. Zi Chen's spear fell, and the black stone exploded with a loud bang.

With one of the bases broken, the formation's power immediately decreased, and Zhang Haotian and the others felt the pressure on them lessen.

"What's going on? The formation's power has weakened!" Zhang Ming exclaimed.

"Damn it, it must be the Devil Race's doing. They want to play with us!" Ge Pu said angrily.

Zhang Haotian frowned. "No, there's a battle outside."

"Battle? How is that possible? Did the Jin Clan's spirit body discover its conscience and send people to save us?" Zhang Ming sneered.

Zhang Haotian said, "I'm afraid it's impossible, but maybe it's an outsider."

Zhang Haotian had been an outsider back then, and he'd attacked the Devil Race directly.

Just as they were conversing, the demonic blades in the formation became weaker and fewer in number. In the end, they actually disappeared. The base of the formation was broken one by one, and many holes appeared in it. They finally heard the furious roars of the Devil Race and the sound of energy explosions outside.

"It seems to be chaos outside. I wonder how many humans came this time. Damn it, I don't believe that the Jin Clan's spirit body won't open the gates this time."

Amidst the cursing, the demonic formation exploded with a boom, and five figures appeared. Apart from that, there were nearly ten human corpses and many Devil Race corpses in the formation.

They only saw the panicked Devil Race after the formation was broken, but they didn't see any humans. They were immediately dumbfounded.

Zhang Ming said, "Where are they?"

Yuan Mingjue said, "Yeah, where are they? Why do we only see the panicked Devil Race, but no humans?"

Right at that moment, an explosion came from the side. Everyone turned their heads and saw a destructive energy storm. The energy storm formed, and many Devil Race corpses dodged it. In the next moment, a ray of light cut through the energy storm, and a human figure walked out from it.
