Chapter 330: Blood Demon Gate
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In an all-out war that would not end until one side died, any morality, any code, were laughable and naive.
The sole purpose of the warring parties was to bring complete and utter destruction to their opponents!
In such a scenario, a rear a.s.sault became an option!
And Xuanshui City was an excellent target.
The Hundred Schools of Philosophy were not weak in strength and its influence was even greater. If the leader of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy, the Three Elements Academy, could be destroyed in one fell swoop, it would undoubtedly deliver a significant blow to the entire Eternal Clan!
And the timing at this moment was just right.
Jiu Han was tied up on the front lines.
Moreover, he had siphoned off most of Boshi Tower’s power.
Although Boshi Tower was still a divine artifact and the Quasi G.o.ds remained unshaken… Jeros was already here.
With a G.o.d present, a divine artifact deprived of most of its power could not stir up much trouble.
“With the target identified, all that’s left is the details.”
After saying this, Jeros turned to look at Blood-Eye.
“Whose abilities are stronger among them?”
Blood-Eye smiled and looked at Lin Feng.
“This is my disciple, with outstanding ability, and his ident.i.ty on the surface is that of an in-name disciple of Old Man Jiu Han. He lives in the Boshi Tower and has learned the Dao of Array Formations from Jiu Han. I believe he should be of considerable help in this operation.”
Blood-Eye said a lot, clearly paving the way for Lin Feng.
This prompted Lin Feng to take a few steps forward, first bowing deeply to Blood-Eye, and then respectfully looking at Jeros.
Jeros smiled and said, “Not bad, not bad. Having our own people inside Boshi Tower makes things much more manageable.”
“I have a task for you. Help me organize the personnel in Xuanshui City, including their approximate strength, their status and positions. Give me a rough plan as soon as possible.”
“Speed is the key to everything.”
“A week, within a week, 1 want to see Xuanshui City turn into a frozen wasteland!”
Lin Feng immediately nodded.
“I will not disappoint the Venerable!”
Xuanshui City had been somewhat chaotic recently.
The three frontlines had been breached, and the Aeonians were attacked on three sides. This caused many people in the city to start moving to the safer heartland.
Xuanshui City was an excellent target.
This place had the Three Elements Academy and Jiu Han guarding it. In the eyes of most people, there was definitely no possibility of this place being affected by the flames of war.
However, this situation has brought about another problem.
The influx of foreigners has caused a severe breakdown in the security of Xuanshui City.
The city’s land area was limited, and so were the houses and buildings.
Although in the supernatural world, skysc.r.a.pers could be built overnight, the related supporting facilities, public management, and the supply of goods were always difficult problems to solve.
Outside Xuanshui City.
The original agricultural area had already turned into a slum.
The farmlands were destroyed, and a large number of illegal constructions have sprung up, forming a maze-like city.
Guan Chao and Gan Song walked through this city maze. The filth and evil along the way made both Guan Chao, a police lieutenant, and Gan Song, a student of the Three Elements Academy, involuntarily frown.
Trash was everywhere.
Countless beggars roam the streets.
Children in dirty clothes ran around the streets, their lively eyes emitting a thieving gleam.
There were also beautiful women in ragged clothes standing on the street. Most of them had iconic silver-white hair—in a peaceful era, it was hard to imagine the n.o.ble Eternal Clan members resorting to illicit activities due to life’s pressure.
After breaking free from the begging children and the seductive women, Guan Chao and Gan Song, looking disheveled, arrived at the corner of a certain street.
The two of them lit their cigarettes and smoked in silence. Soon, Gan Song stubbed out the cigarette and cursed, “d.a.m.n war!”
After speaking, he turned to look at his good friend, “So, Brother Chao, you didn’t bring me here to give me a social practical lesson, right?”
Guan Chao smiled bitterly and shook his head, “How could it be… 1 didn’t expect this lousy place to be in such a mess…”
With that said, Guan Chao’s expression turned serious, “I brought you here this time because 1 need your knowledge. If I remember correctly, you should have studied the Demonic Mysteries subject in the Three Elements Academy, right?”
At the mention of this, Gan Song seemed to recall something.
His expression turned serious as he nodded and said, “Yes. Could it be…”
“I’m not sure, but I think it’s best to bring you over to take a look.”
With that said, Guan Chao took the lead and walked towards the depths of the alley.
The surrounding illegal structures blocked the light, making this place dim and somewhat eerie.
As he walked, Guan Chao spoke, “A long time ago, someone reported a missing person case.”
“The missing persons were mainly concentrated among the incoming population, and the areas that they went missing were all in this new slum.”
“As you know, our police department has not had enough manpower during this period of time. Moreover, there are too many refugees who are not registered, making it impossible for us to a.s.sess how serious this missing persons case is.”
“Originally, everyone, including me, thought that this case was just an ordinary case. But unexpectedly, when I came here two days ago for official business, I happened to see this.”
At this point, Guan Chao suddenly stopped.
He pointed ahead, and Gan Song crossed over Guan Chao and looked forward.
On the dirty wall ahead, a palm-sized, blood-red rune was shimmering and flickering!
The exquisite patterns of the runes were dense and contained a strange energy.
When Gan Song, who was at the Spirit Realm, saw this rune, he vaguely felt as if there were noises in his ears, and even his mind became dazed and confused…
Until Guan Chao slapped the back of Gan Song’s head and woke him up!
Gan Song suddenly turned around to look at Guan Chao, his face filled with fear and even despair!
“The Blood Demon Gate!”
“This is the Blood Demon Gate!!”
If someone in the Black Mist Zone was considered the ancestor of teleportation,
then, the Demon Clan would definitely be the first choice.
In the past, the Demon Clan had brought endless calamities to the various clans in the Black Mist Zone. With their mastery of teleportation, they could easily appear in every corner of the world.
Their special combat abilities were almost at the peak in the Black Mist Zone.
Countless years ago, the Demon Clan was annihilated or, to put it more accurately, absorbed.
The one who absorbed them was the Ancient Demon Clan!
The Ancient Demon Clan took in the experts, armies, territories, and even technologies of the Demon Clan, becoming the overlord of the Black Mist Zone.
And long ago, they were defeated by the Eternal Clan and driven to the far-western frozen land.
Since then, the whereabouts of the Ancient Demon Clan in the world has been unknown.
Their world-famous teleportation technology had also been simplified and curtailed, turning into a modern means of transportation.
Gan Song, however, did not expect to actually see this rune in Xuanshui City, which had once brought countless sorrows to the world.
The Blood Demon Gate Rune!
