It is foreseeable that with the teachings of these nine seniors, the younger generation of the Warrior Temple will definitely grow stronger than the generation of Qiu Yonghao and others. These nine Eternal Heroes have gained the highest respect from all the senior executives.

“The Necromancer God Samigina is leading sixteen demon gods, commanding an elite army of 500,000 demons, and is approaching us day and night. According to intelligence, they are expected to arrive at the Southeast Fortress in about three days. We have invited everyone here today to discuss specific countermeasures.”

Qiu Yonghao’s words made the atmosphere in the operations department tense. Although they had long guessed that as the fortress closest to Modu (Demon City), the Demon God Emperor might prioritize attacking them. However, the arrival of the demon army still made the senior executives of the Warrior Temple feel very nervous.

After all, in the past, the Southeast Fortress where the Warrior Temple was located was attacked the most times, and it was also the weakest of the six fortresses. This time, the demon army is coming aggressively, with as many as sixteen demon gods. One can imagine how much pressure the Warrior Temple is under.

“Is the news accurate, Palace Master Qiu?” The old man sitting at the head of the nine Eternal Heroes asked in a deep voice.

Qiu Yonghao nodded and said, “The news is very accurate. It was sent by the chairman. At the same time, according to the intelligence we have obtained ourselves, it has been mutually verified, and the reliability of the news is very high. Senior Ye, do you have any suggestions?”

This old man with a ninth-tier fourth-level cultivation base is named Ye Sanmi. He shook his head slightly and said, “We are only responsible for combat. You determine the strategy and tactics. However, I want to remind you that the current Warrior Temple is a mixed formation of six major professions, which is different from before. There should also be changes in strategy and tactics.”

“Yes.” Qiu Yonghao replied respectfully. He is not really afraid of the Necromancer God Samigina now. In the Southeast Fortress, there are more than 100,000 practitioners of the six major professions, and there is also an army of nearly 500,000. In terms of numbers, it is not inferior to the demons at all. Even if this demon army is extremely elite, the Southeast Fortress has received policy support from the Federation after the last Holy War, and its construction is stronger than before. With the nine Eternal Heroes sitting in town, it may not be possible to fight the demons head-on in the plains, but Qiu Yonghao really has a great certainty and confidence in defending the Southeast Fortress.

Orders were quickly arranged. According to Long Haochen’s overall strategic deployment, if the Southeast Fortress is attacked by the demon army, there is only one goal: defense. It is enough to drag the demon army here and reduce its own losses as much as possible.

The same strategic deployment also appeared in the Ten Thousand Beast Pass where the Soul Temple is located. The Ten Thousand Beast Pass did not receive much troop support, but the Ten Thousand Beast Pass and the Jialing Pass where the Magic Temple is located have always been the most difficult to break through among the six fortresses. In addition, after this professional transition, the Ten Thousand Beast Pass also has all six major professions. Chen Hongyu also has the support of nine Eternal Heroes around him. He is full of absolute confidence. He not only wants to defend steadily, but even has some thoughts of counterattacking.

As the human and demon armies continue to be mobilized, the atmosphere of the entire Saint Demon Continent is becoming increasingly tense.

However, the first battle was not the collision of the two armies, but from the top demon forces led by the Demon God Emperor, numbering over a thousand.

With their powerful strength, they crossed almost half of the demon territory to reach outside the Yulong Pass. At that time, the demon armies led by the Necromancer God and the Hell Demon God had not yet reached the fortresses they were going to attack.

From afar, the Yulong Pass was already in sight. The Moon Demon God Agares came to the Dragon Carriage of the Demon God Emperor and asked in a low voice, “Your Majesty, shall we launch an attack immediately, or…”

The Demon God Emperor said calmly, “Don’t rush. Isn’t that Long Haochen deliberately trying to lure me here? Okay, I’ll meet him first. Let’s camp here, find a flat place to camp.”

“Yes.” Agares called out and quickly conveyed the Demon God Emperor’s order.

Don’t look down on the Moon Demon God Agares as the second pillar demon god. At this time, he is like a general housekeeper of the entire army, and the Demon God Emperor’s will is completely fulfilled by him.

This place is still fifty miles away from the Yulong Pass.

In the bitter cold wind, exquisite tents made of cooked cowhide were quickly set up in the wilderness.

Strength is good, even the speed of setting up tents is very fast.

If it were in an ordinary army, a seventh-tier powerhouse would already have a very high status. However, in this team, even the eighth-tier can only do odd jobs. Among the thousand demons, there is no seventh-tier at all. The lowest cultivation base is the eighth-tier. Thousands of eighth-tiers, what a terrifying power? The six major temples of mankind combined may not be able to put it together.

Eighth-tiers can only share a tent between two people, and only ninth-tier powerhouses are qualified to have their own tent. The tents of the demon gods are all dark gold. The largest one is naturally the Demon God Emperor’s.

Turning the tent into something similar to a palace is the best description of the Demon God Emperor’s tent.

A thousand demons are really inconspicuous in this snow-covered north, at this time when night has already fallen. However, when all the camps were built and a group of demons moved in, the Yulong Pass immediately discovered them.

They couldn’t help but discover it! Because it was so conspicuous.

Nineteen pillars of light instantly lit up.

The color of each pillar of light is different, and the size is also different, but even the shortest pillar of light is 100 meters high, and the tallest purple pillar of light is nearly 1,000 meters high.

These are the demon god pillars of the nineteen demon gods who came with the Demon God Emperor, from the Moon Demon God Agares down. When these nineteen demon god pillars appeared, the entire Yulong Pass was shaken as the light shone in the wilderness.

Except for the Eternal Heroes, all the powerhouses in the Yulong Pass had never seen such a magnificent scene.

Nineteen demon god pillars represent nineteen demon gods coming outside the Yulong Pass. More importantly, these nineteen demon god pillars form a circle. In the center of them, a dark golden light looms, connecting the sky and the earth, like a pillar supporting the sky. Although it is not clear, the aloof majesty is incomparable even to the nineteen demon god pillars combined.

Not to mention others, even Long Haochen, the chairman of the Temple Federation and the head of the Dawn of Light Demon Hunter Squad, was deeply shocked when he saw this scene outside the pass.

Knowing is one thing, seeing it with your own eyes is another. Although he was very calm on the surface, he still felt like something was suppressed in his heart. The Demon God Emperor, the invincible existence of the Saint Demon Continent, has finally arrived. He will eventually confront this terrifying existence head-on.

The senior executives of the Knight Temple in the Yulong Pass were all looking solemn at this time, even the Eternal Heroes were no exception.

The news that Long Haochen led the elite Dagger Brigade to a great victory in the demon territory was transmitted to the Yulong Pass in the first time, and was fully publicized to the entire federation. As the chairman of the federation, his prestige soared for a time. Coupled with the previous publicity of the magic image, Long Haochen’s influence was much stronger than when he first became the chairman of the federation.

In the six thousand years that humans and demons have fought, there has never been such a great victory. But at this moment, looking at the twenty demon god pillars in the distance, the joy of the previous victory was swept away.

A staged victory and a final victory are never the same thing. As long as the Demon God Emperor is still there, still that invincible existence, then, for humans, there will be almost no chance of turning over.

It seems that the Demon God Emperor brought two hundred ninth-tier powerhouses and thousands of eighth-tier powerhouses, but in fact, the real threat and deterrent to the Yulong Pass is only the Demon God Emperor himself.

The accumulated power of thousands of years will never be full of confidence just by plucking up the courage. The atmosphere on the Yulong Pass is terribly condensed.

“Long–Hao–Chen–.” A low voice sounded, and the rolling sound waves arrived with a bang. The terrifying aura seemed to make the entire Yulong Pass tremble slightly.

Seeing the Demon God Emperor and the demon powerhouses camping in the distance, the senior executives of the Knight Temple thought that he would not launch an attack in the first time, but at this time, when this voice arrived, everyone subconsciously was shocked, and their eyes were focused on Long Haochen.

Fifty miles apart, the Demon God Emperor’s voice seemed to be close at hand.

Long Haochen narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes were bright, his toes touched the ground, his body had floated up, and the golden six wings behind him spread out, immediately illuminating the Yulong Pass city head into a bright gold.

“Mo–Shen–Huang–.” Long Haochen’s voice was very calm, and he couldn’t hear any emotional fluctuations, and it was also transmitted far away.

While speaking, his body slowly flew to a higher sky. At the same time, a strong, white pillar of light fell from the sky and landed behind Long Haochen.

The sky suddenly became like daylight. The white light spread instantly, forcibly dispelling the darkness of the night on a large scale. At least the area where the Yulong Pass was located was completely covered by this pure aura, and it also smoothed out the fear in people’s hearts.

In the center of the white light, a nine-colored halo began to spread out. The nine colors were so dazzling, sacred, noble, and even had a high-ranking majesty.

In the center of this nine-colored light, a huge God Seal Throne over a hundred feet high appeared in mid-air. The nine-colored light had a special aura. The nine colors shone, but it did not appear chaotic at all. Vaguely, behind the God Seal Throne, the nine colors gradually formed circles of light that shone together. The throne itself gradually turned into a color like white jade carving.

On the back of the chair, the subtle reliefs gave people an indescribable beauty. At the top are the sun, moon and stars, the middle section is birds and animals, and the scenery of nature is connected to the seat.

On the armrests of a pair of seats, there are statues of sacred dragons and twelve-winged angels respectively. The powerhouses of the Yulong Pass who were bathed in the light of this throne only felt that their fear was gone, and they could no longer feel any pressure from the twenty demon god pillars in the distance.
