Chapter 589 - 589 The Start
589 The Start
At the highest peak of the borderline mountain many beings were gathered!
This was not a place that ordinary people could come up to. There were only a few who were qualified or had the ability to come up.
There were two Demon Saints and two Demon Emperors. As for the humans, one was Zhang Jintao and the other was Lin Xuan. As for Fang Yuan, he had the intention to climb to the peak, but unfortunately, his strength was still lacking.
“Oh, you’re the Venerable Sovereign of the human race, aren’t you afraid that we will kill you if you come up like this?”
The Roc Lord was an extremely powerful bird-type demon. He had a sharp beak, sharp claws, and a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything. His wings were like clouds that covered the sky!
Its face was full of ferocity, as if it was ready to attack the human at the slightest disagreement.
“Hehe, of course we are. How can we not be? However, if the two of you make a move and insist on killing us, we won’t just let you be captured without putting up a fight. It won’t be good if the two of you get injured as well!”
As he spoke, Zhang Jintao released the terrifying aura from his body. Of course, he controlled it very well. He only released the aura of a peak Venerable Sovereign, but it gave people the feeling that he was trying his best to one up them, but he was still a little short.
At the same time, an extremely powerful aura burst out from the human side. Was this an aura of a Saint?
Greenwood Lord glanced in the direction of the mortals and was slightly fearful. “That old thing isn’t dead yet?”
“The Saint of our human race naturally won’t die so easily. Even if he’s going to die, he’ll do everything he can to give the two Demon Saints a heavy blow!”
Lin Xuan did not know what had happened, but Zhang Jintao knew very well that in the last great battle between humans and demons, one of the two Human Saints had died and the other was injured. The injured Saint had been seriously injured and had already become an immortal.
He had wanted to go to the Demon Realm and seriously injure one of the Demon Saints. At that time, the few Royal Courts were busy fighting for power and benefits. There would naturally be internal strife in the Demon Realm. However, Zhang Jintao stopped him.
Why did he organize it?
It was very simple. If this Human Saint really attacked and severely injured one of the Demon Saints at the cost of his life, the Demon Realm would indeed fall into internal strife. However, the Demon Realm’s nature of being stronger than the human world would not change. It would also show the Demon Realm that there were no more Saints in the human world, and that they were at the mercy of others.
This couldn’t do. The world had to have a deterrent weapon that could deter Demon Saint from attacking, even if it was fake!
Otherwise, given the situation in the human world, many Demon Saint’s would probably join forces to occupy the entire human world and eventually enslave the human race.
Thus, up until now, he had been pretending that the Human Saint was not dead. From time to time, he would release his saint’s aura to disrupt his vision and hearing. It proved effective once again.
Greenwood Lord said unwillingly when he sensed the familiar aura of a Saint. As for the Roc Lord, he was silent. However, there was some doubt in his eyes. To be honest, he was quite clear about the strength of that Human Saint. Back then, he had launched a sneak attack and had a three against two fight. Therefore, he was well aware of the injuries that the Human Saint had caused. So, how was he still alive?
He should have died long ago!
They couldn’t understand the meaning behind this. They were extremely confused, but the beast chasers they had sent out couldn’t get close to the place where the Saint was cultivating in seclusion. So now, they only knew that the Human Saint might not have died, but they couldn’t be sure that the Human Saint was still alive.
The Saint’s energy activity flashed and disappeared. Zhang Jintao naturally could not maintain the Saint’s energy activity for a long time. Just with that flash of energy made it even more difficult for the two Demon Saints to judge the situation.
For a Demon Saint, a Venerable Sovereign like Zhang Jintao was nothing, but to kill a Venerable Sovereign and then fight to the death with a half-dead Saint… Even a Demon Saint at his peak would be injured. Once injured, the other Demon Saint would not hold back!
One had to know that Greenwood Lord was a demon plant that had achieved Dao. Although he could take human form now, once he was killed, he could still obtain the precious Wood Heart. It was not impossible for experts of the same level to advance a few more steps.
At the same time, both the Lords were concerned about each other. Their pure flesh and blood were great nourishment for humans and for demon plants. If one could extend their roots into the flesh and blood to absorb the nutrients…
Therefore, as long as the Human Saints were not dead, the two Demon Saint’s would not dare to act rashly. They could be considered to have barely maintained the severity of the situation.
Zhang Jintao was not the key. As for Lin Xuan… He was a guest from beyond the heavens, interesting!
The Moon Lord had already entered another world. This was also a secret in the Demon Realm. Not many demons knew about that place. Now, a visitor from outer space had appeared among the humans. This was really interesting.
If it was just an ordinary expert, they would have kidnapped him a long time ago. However, he was a peak Venerable Sovereign. Although his strength was unknown, he should not be underestimated. His realm was one level lower, but they did not know how strong he was.
The two Demon Saint’s looked at each other. They might be able to test him later. If he was too strong, they could take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack and kill him.
That’s right, as the great war between humans and demons was approaching, there was an unspoken understanding between the two Demon Saint’s. Since the Human Saint’s would have to face it sooner or later, it was better for the two of them to face it together!
Between heaven and earth, a powerful red-blood copper bell appeared in the air. It was a weapon spirit. It was nourished by the energy of heaven and earth. Its strength was extremely powerful. It was considered a neutral faction. The powerful and rare neutral faction did not belong to demons or humans. They could not even be considered living creatures. They could be considered as Yin spirits.
This time, they were invited by both sides to be judges. They didn’t need to do much, they just had to ring the bell and play cards. They were used to doing such things.
As the bell rang, the first battle had begun. The one to fight was a rank seven human Grandmaster. As for the demons, it was a rather powerful rank seven beast, the Herculean King Rabbit!
For a moment, man and rabbit began to attack each other wildly, not holding back, wanting to kill each other.
The humans who were watching the competition were silent. This situation had been discussed from the beginning and had been expected. However, the faces of the demons on the opposite side changed. To be honest, demons were brutal and liked to fight. This was true, but it also depended on the situation.
Only low-level demons who couldn’t eat their fill and didn’t have enough would fight endlessly for a mouthful of food. When their level rose, they could finally lie down and wait for others to feed them.
