Chapter 1929 - 1929 The coming storm (1)
1929 The coming storm (1)
The fighting and killing in the dark World had not affected the lives of ordinary people for the time being. For them, that world was too far away and bizarre.
If one believed in the existence of these things and wasted too much time and energy on them, it would be too ridiculous, even improper.
This was the way ordinary people thought. Their eyes and minds were covered by fog, and they did not know that the world they were in was already full of demons.
At the same time, only a few people knew that those mysterious and evil existences had complete control over their fates.
Those who knew about it were destined to be lonely and could not tell anyone about it. They could only choose to keep the secret in their hearts.
This small group of people might have tried to save themselves and tried their best, but they found that their efforts were in vain.
As a result, they were either killed by the controller or hid in a corner, living a short life in decadence.
As for those who didn’t know, they were still immersed in their constructed illusory dreams and trying to make their dreams come true.
They had thought that they owned the entire world, but in fact, people only lived in it. When had they ever truly owned it?
Ordinary people were like ants in a glass box. They didn’t know that there were pairs of greedy eyes staring at them outside the glass.
Everything they had worked so hard to pursue was just an illusion. Perhaps the controller only needed to gently raise his hand and their hard work would be turned into bubbles.
As usual, they worked hard on a nine-to-five basis.
Unable to cultivate and control fate, unable to break free from the shackles, forever enslaved and driven.
However, the Demon Hunters that had gathered in the city had already sensed the abnormality and were subconsciously nervous.
Living creatures had a sense of danger, and cultivators were even more sensitive in this aspect. Although they didn’t see a pack of hungry wolves, they could feel that their natural enemy was nearby.
This kind of special situation had never happened before, and it immediately caused the Demon Hunters to panic.
At the same time that they felt that something was wrong, the Demon Hunters also began to search for the source of the problem, or they would not be able to sleep and eat in peace.
It didn’t take long for the Demon Hunters to find the answer.
It turned out that on the day The Fiend nest opened, dense dark clouds had begun to gather in the sky above the valley outside the city.
These dark clouds were no longer in the form of smoke. Instead, they were as thick as liquid, as if they would drip down at any moment.
Of course, to ordinary people, this was all they could see. However, in the eyes of cultivators, it was a different scene.
This was not a dark cloud at all, but an abnormal energy fluctuation that subsequently led to the world’s metamorphosis.
Such a situation was extremely rare, and it immediately attracted the attention of the Demon Hunters, who quickly determined that the problem was here.
In the following time, the Demon Hunters focused their attention on the area, trying to figure out what had happened.
They soon discovered that the natural environment of the area covered by the dark clouds was changing rapidly. Sunlight could not shine in at all, and the air seemed to have become unusually cold.
Since the day the dark clouds appeared, all the animals in the valley had fled, not even a single insect was left.
Obviously, these animals were more sensitive than humans. They had already realized the danger here, which was why they fled as soon as the mutation began.
The official Demon Hunter headquarters had long noticed this change and sent people to investigate at the first moment. They then received shocking news.
Under the area covered by the dark clouds, there was an extremely dense demonic Qi, which was almost no different from a paradise.
After receiving this news, the official headquarters was both happy and worried, and they urgently discussed how to deal with this matter.
If it was in the past, this would definitely be a place that demon hunters would fight for. No matter what price they had to pay, they would occupy this cultivation treasure land.
Cultivating in such a place would definitely yield twice the result with half the effort. It was a rare opportunity.
However, when the Demon Hunters entered The Dark World and brought back the real cause of the demonic energy explosion, no one dared to covet this land.
It was only at this moment that the Demon Hunter realized that there was actually an ancient fiend nest hidden at the foot of this mountain!
It was precisely because of the sudden opening of the ancient fiend nest that The Fiend Qi that had been accumulated for ten thousand years gushed out, causing the world to change.
Without the Demon Hunters ‘knowledge, a horde of evil demons had arrived in the city and gathered in the valley.
Although it couldn’t be seen on the surface, after entering the world that ordinary people couldn’t see, they would see a scene of demons dancing wildly.
It was said that after the Demon Hunter in charge of the investigation returned, he was so scared that his face was as white as paper. He trembled as he told them the information he had found out.
“I’ve lived for so many years, but this is the first time I’ve seen such a scene. Demon masters are everywhere, and demon lords appear from time to time as well.
It’s said that a hidden demon Emperor has received the news and has already sent demon servants to investigate, and is considering whether to come personally.”
This piece of information was appalling and immediately caused a great uproar.
To demon hunters, demon masters were enough to give them a headache, and demon kings were even more existences that they did not dare to provoke.
As for those demon emperors who had lived for thousands or even tens of thousands of years, they were completely legendary existences. Normally, they didn’t even dare to mention their names to avoid being sensed by the other party.
The demon emperors recorded by the Demon Hunter Union all had the ability to destroy the world. If they wanted to, they could destroy a city in the blink of an eye.
After learning the specific situation, the official Demon Hunter headquarters immediately contacted the military to seal off the surrounding area of the mountain and forbid anyone from entering.
At the same time, a large number of demon hunters had been conscripted to defend the periphery and eliminate those things that ordinary people could not fight against.
One had to know that in addition to the gathering of demons in this area, there were also a large number of demonic servants surging in, trying to absorb the demonic Qi here to increase their strength.
Other than these demonic servants, there were also a large number of strange things that were rapidly appearing due to the growth of demonic Qi.
When he entered this region, he felt as if he had entered an unfamiliar world that was filled with strangeness.
The middle-aged cultivator who was in charge of contacting Tang Zhen immediately found him when he discovered the unusual situation.
After all, he was the most powerful Demon Hunter in the city. At this critical moment, he had to stand up and calm the people down.
If there were any changes, Tang Zhen would have to lead the Demon Hunters to fight against the evil demons that had gathered together.
Tang Zhen expressed that he should be patient. The matter was far from as serious as he had imagined. At the same time, he told the middle-aged cultivator that the reason why these evil demons had gathered here was only for the treasures in the devil nest.
If it was not necessary, they would not break the rules and cause disasters in the world of ordinary people.
After hearing Tang Zhen’s explanation, the middle-aged cultivator was still worried. After asking for more details, he left in a hurry.
He had to plan carefully. After all, the current situation was too dangerous, and he could not be too careful.
The middle-aged cultivator didn’t realize that Tang Zhen was behind all of this. He couldn’t imagine that the ancient demon nest was forged by Tang Zhen.
The level of this scheme was too high. It was simply impossible for Tang Zhen to complete this matter with the identity he was currently playing.
It could be said that both the evil demons and demon hunters had become pawns in this scheme, being manipulated without knowing it.
