Eternal Life: My Lifespan Increases Daily

Chapter 587: Chapter 401: Talisman Celestial Light, Crisis in the Main City! (Double Chapter)

Many of the Demon Race perished because of this!

Only the Great Demons could withstand the attack of the Talisman Array and engage in a fierce battle with Hu Tomb.

On the other side, Song Changming and his team retreated towards the Cui Bai Main City.

Before they had flown far, he sensed three powerful Demon Race auras appearing behind them.

He judged that three Great Demons had appeared at once!

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but sweat for Hu Tomb, unsure if they could escape from the hands of the three Great Demons.

Everything happened so suddenly that they had no time to respond, and could only return to the main city first.

Even if they stayed, they couldn’t offer much help to Hu Tomb.

After all, those were three Great Demons.

”Why did so many Demons suddenly appear?!” Xu Yuan wondered internally as he flew.

This attack seemed premeditated, catching them completely off guard.

”The front line didn’t receive any news of a Demon Swarm crossing. Their actions were so hidden, deep into the heartland, it seems this was meant to surprise our main city, only they happened upon us here, prematurely exposing their tracks...”

Yang Zhen tried to make his own deduction, his heart heavy with concern.

He thought if the main city truly fell, the consequences would be unimaginable.

As of now, those Yun Province regions where the main city had fallen had basically become headquarters for the Demon Race, with no good outcome.

In his view, once Cui Bai Main City fell, the entire Cui Bai Dao would face annihilation.

Countless people would die in this disaster, and without the Cui Bai Dao barrier, the entire south of Yun Province would be in jeopardy, like pulling on one hair could affect the whole body!

Many people thought of this outcome and their faces were not good.

At this moment, no one was thinking about the marshal position.

Once the city fell, all these power struggles would become meaningless.

All the power, noble families, whether downtrodden or flourishing, would become fleeting illusions.

A Demon Race invasion, was like toppling the gaming table, all those playing at the table, or hiding under it, would face this great cleansing.

The Demon Race didn’t care which noble family or surname you belonged to; they only cared if your flesh was tasty and delicious.

The valley wasn’t far from the main city, but the road back wasn’t smooth.

From all directions, the black clouds, smelling the scent of human flesh, swiftly converged.

”Where are the lambs going?”

In the black clouds, figures of Demons appeared, laughing at Song Changming and his group.

The overwhelming Demon Qi spread everywhere the eye could see.

God knows how these Demons managed the trickery, appearing out of nowhere.

”Protect Elder Qian, break through!” a Personal Guard Captain of Hu Tomb shouted.

Song Changming’s group, besides the dozen or so Little Flag Masters competing for the marshal position, included dozens of officials and Personal Guards from Hu Tomb.

Their strength wasn’t weak, with almost no one lagging behind.

But the number of Demons was greater, in the air, one after another, countless, too many to count!

Their attempt to break through wouldn’t be easy.

The group rushed forward undeterred, their speed even faster.

Roar!

The Demon Swarm charged relentlessly, swooping from the sky towards the Human Race group.

Countless Demon Qi shrouded them, making them feel as if the dark sky was falling, with an overwhelming sense of suffocation arising.

Boom!

Xu Yuan was the first to explode, countless pale Thunder piercing the heavens and earth, sweeping the surroundings, evaporating large swathes of Demon Blood and Demon Flesh, leaving a foul stench in the air.

The remaining people also cast aside their previous grievances and attacked in unison, with countless Innate Qi Aura transforming into the most effective demon-slaying weapons, also the best means of self-preservation.

Everyone had a background as a general in the army and naturally understood how to cooperate in a military array, their Gang Qi connected like a warship made entirely of energy.

All of them were within, collaborating to break through layers of black cloud and Demon Qi.

They pushed forward several dozen miles until several giant beasts descended, blocking their way.

The heads of the giant beasts were menacing, their bodies like lion and tiger, also like rhinoceros and elephant, each one several hundred feet tall!

Opening their massive mouths, they inhaled and exhaled vast Demon Qi, thunder and lightning flashed in the clouds, strange phenomena appeared one after another.

Their warship, under the roar of these giant beasts, was already on the verge of collapse, teetering on the edge of disintegration.

Once the Battle Array was broken, they would revert to fighting individually.

At that moment, their situation would worsen, and sacrifices with casualties couldn’t be ruled out.

”Elder Qian, if the Battle Array breaks, please make sure to stay close to us and break through,” the Personal Guard Captain transmitted his voice, somewhat urgently.

In any case, the safety of Elder Qian had to be ensured.

Anyone here could die, except for Elder Qian!

”Stop talking nonsense.” Qian Yuan glared at the Personal Guard Captain, and with a swipe from the Heaven and Earth Ring on his finger, pulled out a golden Talisman Paper.

Lightly flicking a finger on the Talisman Paper.

The next moment, the runes on the Talisman Paper lit up, and the surrounding vast energy was instantly drained by the paper.

Even the Innate Qi Aura emanating from each person was affected by the Talisman Paper, while only the Demon Qi was repelled by it.

Song Changming felt his own Gang Qi shake and immediately noticed the Talisman Paper.

”Level Five Talisman Paper? Or Level Six?!” Song Changming couldn’t recognize the intricate runes, but could only roughly estimate the grade of the paper, which must be incredibly high!

Not to mention the market didn’t have any, even the Armory of the Military Department had no stock of such paper.

Song Changming, despite years of studying Talisman Tao, was seeing this grade of paper for the first time.

”Feel the Celestial Light...” Qian Yuan’s whiskers and hair were lifted by the sweeping energy, his elderly eyes deep and spirited, without a trace of cloudiness.

The next moment, the Talisman Paper seemed to have fully charged, suddenly shattering, turning into countless points of light that pierced through the black clouds, shooting skyward.

And when these points of light descended again, they transformed into a massive rain of energy light!

Any Demon Race hit by the light rain was either seriously injured or died instantly.

For a time, cries filled the air.

Demon Corpses in the sky fell to the ground like dumplings.

Even the few powerful giant beasts blocking the road couldn’t hold out under this light rain for more than a moment before fleeing.

Among the field, only Song Changming and his group remained unscathed in the light rain, swiftly moving, escaping far away.

”So this is the Prince’s Mansion Talisman Master!”

”Such powerful Talisman Paper...”

Xu Yuan and Yang Zhen were profoundly shocked by the light rain from the Talisman Paper just now, not a single Demon Beast could withstand it!

”No wonder even the Marshal was this anxious about the old master...” Xu Yuan sighed.

Yang Zhen could relate deeply.

A single Talisman Paper could effortlessly annihilate so many of the Demon Race, helping them resolve the current predicament.

This was the power of a Talisman Master.

A Talisman Master deeply versed in Talisman Tao could potentially be more dangerous than the majority of Martial Artists.

A single Talisman Paper, a single Talisman Array, could, with a laugh, annihilate millions of lives!

This was no exaggeration, but fact!

Even Song Changming, witnessing the light rain himself, felt his horizons broadened.

With the help of this Prince’s Mansion Elder Talisman Master, the group easily passed through the encirclement of the Demon Swarm.

But thereafter, the Demon Race, like a persistent shadow, swarmed from all directions, so the group dared not relax.

”This is bad!” Yang Zhen suddenly exclaimed.

Encountering a Demon encirclement all the way could only mean the Demon army had already attacked the main city!

If not, how could there be more Demons in the direction returning to the main city?

And even knowing the perilous path back to the main city, they had no choice but to return.

Cui Bai Main City was their root, their family, accumulated assets, wives, children, and parents were all within the city.

Even Song Changming was the same, if the main city truly fell, other things aside, he had to take away the people of Song Residence, he couldn’t just leave on his own.

Simultaneously.

Far outside the main city, black clouds already covered the sky, with shadowy figures moving, and pairs of fierce, brutal demon eyes staring at the human giant city.

Underlings of the Demon Swarm launched an endless charge, directly attacking the Human Race army.
