Chapter 334 The Shangguan family squanders its fortune to recruit Martial Emperors and Martial Kings
The Western Regions.
Wuji City.
Recently, a piece of news suddenly crashed into the calm lake like a boulder, completely igniting the entire city.
It even spread rapidly to several surrounding major cities.
The demon race has amassed a massive army and is about to launch a war of annihilation against the human race in the southwest!
Hundreds of millions of our fellow human beings are in imminent danger!
This news was released by the Shangguan family of Wuji City.
Not only that.
The head of the Shangguan family, Shangguan Long, publicly announced an extremely shocking decision.
The Shangguan family is willing to give away all of their family's wealth accumulated over a century.
We are offering generous rewards to recruit martial kings and martial emperors from the Western Regions.
The Shangguan family will assemble a large reinforcement force.
Led personally by the family head Shangguan Long, they went to the southwest region to fight a deadly battle against the demon race.
boom.
For an instant.
The city of Wuji and several surrounding cities were shaken.
The martial artists of the Western Regions are different from those of those in bustling cities.
They themselves have struggled in harsh environments, and what they have in their bones is no shortage of courage.
Upon learning of the rampant aggression of the demon race...
They learned that the alien race planned to slaughter hundreds of millions of human lives.
The surrounding cities were immediately filled with indignation.
Martial artists from all around the region took up their weapons and traveled day and night to Wuji City.
Within two days, a large number of people gradually gathered in front of the Shangguan family's house, requesting to join the relief team.
Even within Wuji City.
The Huangfu family, who have always been sworn enemies of the Shangguan family, have also made a surprising move.
The head of the Huangfu family personally came to visit.
Willing to temporarily set aside the century-old feud between the two families, he also led the elite of his clan to join the relief force.
In the face of a bloody battle concerning the survival of the race.
The grudges within the human race can all be put aside.
……
A few days later.
The deepest part of the Western Regions.
The edge of the Taklamakan Desert.
This place is sparsely populated, and all you can see is endless yellow sand.
A strong wind whipped up sand and dust.
The wind blew on my face and stung.
Two men and two horses galloped from afar and stopped on the sand dunes on the outskirts of the desert.
It was Lu Chuan and Shangguan Yue.
Upon reaching the location, Shangguan Yue nimbly dismounted and immediately pointed to the deepest part of the desert.
"Brother Lu Chuan."
"Mount Buzhou is located at the very end of this direction."
"Just keep walking in, and you'll get there."
"However, Buzhou Mountain is, after all, a legendary sacred site, and the spiritual pressure surrounding it is extremely terrifying."
"It's extremely difficult to get in."
She gazed at the distant, dusky horizon, a look of worry flashing in her eyes.
"My cultivation level is too low; I simply cannot withstand that pressure."
"Brother Lu Chuan, I can't go in with you, I can only wait for you outside."
Lu Chuan sat on his horse.
I looked in the direction she was pointing.
But all that could be seen ahead was a sandstorm.
However, he could clearly sense a kind of unsettling fluctuation hidden in that area.
That surpasses even the Martial Emperor.
It even surpasses the power of a Martial Venerable.
He turned his head and said gratefully to Shangguan Yue beside him,
"Miss Shangguan, thank you for leading the way."
"Thank you for your hard work these past few days."
"But you don't need to wait for me here."
"The environment here is too harsh, and there is danger at any time. You should go back to Wuji City as soon as possible."
The situation in the southwest is urgent.
He didn't know how long he would have to stay at Buzhou Mountain.
Whether they can even persuade a sage is still unknown.
There's absolutely no point in leaving Shangguan Yue here to wait.
Shangguan Yue shook her head.
"I'm not leaving."
"I'll wait for you here."
"You're going in alone, without anyone to help you."
"We'll go back to Wuji City together once you come out."
"At that time, I will take my father and the others with me to the southwest to kill the demons."
Her tone was firm, leaving no room for negotiation.
Looking into her stubborn eyes.
Lu Chuan knew that trying to persuade him was useless.
This woman from the Western Regions is just that straightforward.
"Whatever you want."
"You yourself must take care of your safety."
Lu Chuan said no more and abandoned his horse.
His internal energy erupted instantly.
With a stomp of his feet on the sand, he was lifted into the air and soared into the sky.
call out.
It transformed into a streak of light and shot towards Mount Buzhou.
In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the swirling sandstorm.
in situ.
Shangguan Yue led the horse and looked up.
His gaze remained fixed on the direction where Lu Chuan had disappeared, and a ripple of emotion stirred in his eyes.
The wind and sand tousled her hair.
She ignored it.
He silently muttered to himself,
"Brother Lu Chuan, you must come out safely."
……
Deep in the Taklamakan Desert.
The environment was extremely harsh.
Everything above and below was a hazy yellow, with yellow sand filling the sky, making it impossible to tell which way was which.
The gale carried sand and gravel.
The impact struck the protective true energy within the body, producing a continuous series of muffled crackling sounds.
Lu Chuan flew rapidly through the air.
True essence circulated wildly within his body, maintaining the speed of flight.
But as time went by...
But he grew increasingly anxious.
I wonder how Nancheng is doing now.
I wonder if Su Ling'er, Monkey, and the others have been moved to a safe place.
I wonder if Lei Qianjue and his group can withstand the demon race's attack.
I need to be quick.
Faster.
As long as I can see Luo Gucheng, as long as I can invite the Sage over.
Hundreds of millions of people in the southwest region will be saved.
Half a day later.
Lu Chuan has already ventured deep into the heart of the desert.
The sandstorm ahead seemed to be forcibly torn apart from the middle by an invisible force.
A massive, entirely black mountain came into view.
The mountain peaks soared into the clouds.
There was no end in sight.
It stands there all alone in the heart of the desert, exuding an ancient and desolate aura.
It is Buzhou Mountain.
Upon seeing this, Lu Chuan's spirits lifted.
finally reached.
He immediately activated his true energy, preparing to accelerate his charge.
boom.
However, at that moment, a pressure descended without warning.
This made him freeze in mid-air.
The flight speed also slowed down instantly.
This pressure.
It was not a physical attack.
Instead, it is a pressure that acts directly on both the mental and physical levels.
This is……
The aura of a sage.
But he gritted his teeth and continued flying forward.
The further in you go.
The closer to Buzhou Mountain.
The oppressive force grew even stronger.
At first, I just felt like I was carrying hundreds of kilograms of heavy weight on my shoulders.
But before long, the weight increased to several thousand kilograms and tens of thousands of kilograms.
The surrounding air became incredibly viscous.
Each breath seemed to require an immense amount of effort.
The sand and dust in the air were all firmly pressed to the ground by this oppressive force, unable to fly up at all.
The body's vital energy was also being consumed at an alarming rate.
The flight altitude can only be decreased little by little.
Before long, Lu Chuan was no longer able to maintain high-altitude flight.
"Get up."
Lu Chuan let out a low growl.
He forced himself to gather his inner energy, trying to steady himself.
But that oppressive aura was completely unreasonable.
It pressed down directly on top of him.
boom.
For an instant.
Lu Chuan felt a chill run down his spine.
The body fell uncontrollably downwards.
